**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

MOJO Organics, Inc. is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (the "Amendment") to amend its original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021 (the "Original Form 10-K"), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 17, 2022, for the sole purpose of amending and replacing Part II, Item 12. "Controls and Procedures" of the Form 10-K, which inadvertently omitted language necessary to meet the requirements of Item 308(a) of Regulation S-K and to include Exhibit 32.1, which was inadvertently excluded.

This Amendment contains only the Cover Page to this Amendment, this Explanatory Note, Item 12, the Signature Page, and the certifications attached to this Amendment as Exhibits 31.1 and 32.1. No other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-K. This Amendment speaks as of the original filing date of the Original Form 10-K, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date, and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Form 10-K.

Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC. The filing of this Amendment is not an admission that the Original Form 10-K, when filed, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement not misleading.

**ITEM 12. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's senior management, consisting of the Company's principal executive and financial officer and the Company's principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive and financial officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

**Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

The management of MOJO Organics, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, our officers concluded that, during the period covered by this annual report, our internal controls over financial reporting were not operating effectively.

As previously reported, the Company does not have an audit committee and is not currently obligated to have one. Management does not believe that the lack of an audit committee is a material weakness.

**Attestation Report**

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting as such report is not required for non-accelerated filers.

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

**ITEM 19. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES**
