ITEM 1. BUSINESS
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
Worksport Ltd., through its subsidiaries, designs, develops, manufactures, and owns the IP on a variety of tonneau covers, solar integrations, and NP (Non-Parasitic), Hydrogen-based true green energy solutions for the sustainable, clean energy, and automotive industries. Worksport Ltd. seeks to capitalize on the growing shift of consumer mindsets towards clean energy integrations with its proprietary solar solutions, mobile energy storage systems (ESS), and NP (Non-Parasitic), Hydrogen-based technology.
Corporate History
The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 2, 2003 under the name Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (“FNHI”).
In December 2014, FNHI acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Worksport Ltd., an Ontario, Canada corporation formed in 2011 (“Worksport Ontario”), pursuant to which Worksport Ontario became a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNHI. Upon acquiring Worksport Ontario, FNHI abandoned all previous business plans and has been focusing on developing the tonneau business.
In May 2020, FNHI changed its name to Worksport Ltd.
Terravis Energy Inc. (“Terravis”) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on May 24, 2021. On August 20, 2021, the Company was issued 100 shares of common stock at par value of $0.0001 per share, representing 100% of the outstanding equity of Terravis. On January 20, 2022, Terravis issued an additional 9,999,900 shares of Common Stock to Worksport Ltd. at a par value of $0.0001, representing 100% of the outstanding equity of Terravis.
Public Offering
On August 6, 2021, the Company consummated an underwritten public offering (the “Public Offering”) of an aggregate of 3,272,727 units, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-256142) and a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No: 333-258429). The public offering price was $5.50 per unit and each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant (“Public Warrant”) to purchase one share of common stock for $6.05 per share (110% of the unit offering price) from the date of issuance until the third anniversary of the issuance date. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million from the Public Offering, and after deducting the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses payable by the Company, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $16.1 million. The Company used the net proceeds for Working Capital, R&D, Marketing, and Equipment.
Nasdaq Uplisting
In connection with the Public Offering, the Company’s common stock and Public Warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “WKSP” and “WKSPW” since August 4, 2021. Prior to the uplisting, the Company’s common stock was quoted on the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol, “WKSP.”
Products
We have developed soft vinyl tonneau covers and hard aluminum tonneau covers. Covers are offered in three or four-panel options. Once installed, our tonneau covers latch against the bed of the truck and fold up against the back window of the truck cab.
Our current products include the SC (Soft Cover) line: SC3, SC3pro, and SC4.
SC3
The SC3 was Worksport’s first product introduced in 2011 and is fitted with a powder coated lightweight aluminum frame and rear cam latches. The tri-fold cover is ultra-violet (UV) protected vinyl tri-layer material that seals around the truck bed with a rubber gasket designed to protect cargo from moisture and debris.
SC3pro
The SC3pro was introduced in 2012 and has been upgraded from the SC3 to include our patented “Smart Latch” system. The SC3pro offers the same features as the SC3; however, the Smart Latch system allows the operator to open the cover by simply pulling a release cable.
SC4
The SC4 began production in 2021 and is expected to launch in Q2 of 2022. We believe that this will be the first vinyl wrapped tonneau cover to fold in four sections. This cover will also allow its users full bed access by being foldable upwards toward the rear window of the truck. This cover will be more compact when folded parallel to the back window of the truck which will reduce wind resistance and rear window obstruction.
Products in Pre-Production
Worksport is currently developing the following products:
TC3
The TC3 is currently in the pre-production stage, estimated to launch in the second quarter of 2022. The TC3 design will fold with three sections, allowing 2/3 bed access. The cover will have one latching point that is manually operated by the user. The cover panels will be made from formed aluminum, ultra-strong 5052 alloy panels with a matte black powder coated surface, for a durable finish.
Like the SC3pro, TC3 will also offer a cable-operated latching system that allows for one-sided operation by the user. Options on the TC3 will include expandable cargo division and storage solutions.
Worksport: Terravis System
We are currently developing a three-component system called the Terravis System. The Terravis System is a first-of-its-kind mobile power generator & energy storage system that consists of a solar tonneau cover called the Worksport SOLIS, a portable core battery called the Worksport COR, and an XCX Accessory Rail - securely fixed to the truck’s bed with use of specially-designed and patented clamps. The XCX system is used to secure the SOLIS tonneau cover using our patented Pro Series latches and can be used to secure additional accessories along with COR energy storage system, COR batteries, and a solar controller.
The Terravis System is capable of charging and storing up to 6kWh of energy on the go. This energy can be used for emergencies, outdoor activities, or work ranging from a contractor to drone operator. The Terravis System’s integrated track systems can be used for a variety of add-on options such as chrome trim, tie downs, cargo cleats, textile storage bags, seating, cargo racks, sliding system and others. Our sales efforts for our Terravis System will be focused on the North American markets, for companies such as Workhorse, Atlis, Bollinger, Hercules, as well as Toyota, Stellantis, GM and Ford trucks.
Worksport SOLIS
The SOLIS Hybrid Solar Tonneau Cover is fitted with cutting edge Monocrystalline solar panels, capable of generating up to 600 watts of power. The SOLIS is based on our Tough Cover framework and can provide up to 10 additional miles for EV pick-up trucks. This is based on a 98kWh battery under optimal conditions at 85% efficiency. Worksport SOLIS uses our TC (tough cover) design and builds on it by integrating highly advanced solar panels. The solar panels are secured to our 16 Gauge 5052 alloy panels both mechanically and using specialized adhesives, and those panels ensure our covers are extremely strong and durable. SOLIS allows current pick-up truck owners to utilize sustainable energy through advanced solar power technology to charge their COR energy storage systems (ESS) and upcoming EVs. While folded over the bed of the truck, the SOLIS is designed to charge power banks and portable batteries, turning any truck into a mobile micro-grid power station.
Worksport COR
The COR ESS (energy storage system) is a standalone product that can use energy created from SOLIS, our solar cover, and utilize the stored energy on the go, anywhere. Worksport COR is the most unique portable battery system on the market today. Not only does COR allow users to swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one, but it does so without a drop in power output for up to 15s with a load of 1800W. These innovations allow COR to go beyond a simple lifestyle product for work and leisure, as it’s a tool that could potentially save a life in the event of an emergency.
The COR’s main battery, a Lithium Nickel Manganese Oxide (Li-MNC) battery, boasts a capacity of 1534Wh while its Hot Swap Lithium Iron Phosphate (Li-MNC) battery has a capacity of 78.6Wh. The COR’s built-in inverter allows 2000W of power with an output voltage of 120V AC (frequency of 60Hz) and input voltage of 48V. The system allows Bluetooth connection for monitoring and controlling the COR and its external batteries.
Manufacturing
As of December 31, 2021, all Worksport products were manufactured in a facility located in Meizhou, China according to our specifications, schematics and blueprints. We believe that production at the factory can be increased within 30 days to facilitate volumes up to ten times the current output without any adverse effects on quality or craftsmanship.
We are currently in the process of establishing manufacturing presence within North America and are working towards closing on a property in West Seneca, New York. Management and seller are under contract for the property, and management plans to close on the property in April of 2022 barring any unforeseen problems or delays. Management believes that having manufacturing capability in North America will increase quality control and production efficiency as well as lower landed costs.
Intellectual Property
The Company currently holds a broad collection of intellectual property rights relating to certain aspects of its parts and accessories, and services. This includes patents, trademarks, service marks, and trade secrets. Although the Company believes the ownership of such intellectual property rights is an important factor in its business and that its success does depend in part on such ownership, the Company relies primarily on the innovative skills, technical competence and marketing abilities of its personnel.
Patents
Our current intellectual portfolio consists of five (5) issued U.S. utility patents, one (1) issued Canadian utility patent, and twenty (20) pending patent applications: four (4) U.S. utility applications, seven (7) U.S. provisional applications, seven (7) U.S. design applications, and two (2) Canadian utility applications. We also in the process of preparing several other provisional and design patent applications.
Granted U.S. patents will expire between 2032 and 2036, excluding any patent term adjustment that might be available following the grant of the patent. If issued, pending applications would expire in 2041, excluding any patent term adjustment that might be available following the grant of the patent. Patents issued on the provisional applications, if any, would expire in 2042, excluding any patent term adjustment that might be available following the grant of the patent.
All patents issued to our Chief Executive Officer, Steven Rossi, have been assigned to the Company or will be assigned to the Company upon being issued by the USPTO.
Trademarks
The Company has twenty-eight (28) trademarks in various states of pending, registered and allowed in the United States, Canada, China, European Union, Australia, New Zealand, and United Kingdom.
Governmental Programs, Incentives and Regulations
Globally, both the operation of our business by us and the ownership of our products by our customers are impacted by various government programs, incentives and other arrangements. Our business and products are also subject to numerous governmental regulations that vary among jurisdictions.
Programs and Incentives
We are in the process of applying for several sales tax, energy, and mortgage incentives, each containing their own sets of guidelines and agreements by which we must abide in order to continue receiving said incentives. While we are not currently bound by these agreements, we expect these agreements to take effect in 2022.
Regulations
Our portable power station (Worksport COR) is subject to various U.S. and international regulations that govern transport of “dangerous goods,” defined to include lithium-ion batteries, which may present a risk in transportation. We plan to conduct testing to demonstrate our compliance with such regulations.
We use lithium-ion cells in our energy storage products. The use, storage and disposal of our battery packs are regulated under existing laws and are the subject of ongoing regulatory changes that may add additional requirements in the future.
The Market
Our revenue is directly proportional to sales of pickup trucks. The following chart using SEMA1 data from 2021 shows sales of specialty equipment retail sales of aftermarket automotive accessories in the United States in billions from 2014, through 2020 and estimates those sales into 2024.
1. SEMA. Automotive Specialty-Equipment Retail Sales Reach New High. Retrieved from www.sema.org
This current growth trend is fueled by a decade average of strong overall economic performance, including an ongoing decade average decline in unemployment and growth in consumer spending. A strong economy paired with rising consumer confidence suggest that consumers are willing to spend capital on discretionary items, such as specialty automotive parts. While new vehicle sales have leveled off, they still remain at near-record highs-close to 15 million per year. Recently announced tariffs on imported steel, aluminum, etc. and other policy changes could affect the economy and the automotive industry, however, demand continues to remain strong for new pickup trucks in North America.
The Statista Market Outlook suggests that pickup trucks will continue to be the number one selling vehicle in North America. Pickup truck upgrades are the largest sector of the specialty equipment industry, accounting for 27% of total retail dollars (about $12.03 Billion). In the United States alone, there are over 158.6 million registered light trucks. Despite the growth of crossover vehicles (CUV) overall, full-size pickups remain the most common vehicle subtype on the road today. This is likely driven by the continued popularity of domestic half-ton pickups (e.g., Ford, Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500) throughout the United States, especially in the U.S. southern states. Further, in 2021, roughly 75% of vehicles sold in the USA were light trucks.
While there is increasing interest in electrification by automakers, less than 1% of light vehicles are electrified thus far. This will be the decade where mass adoption takes place. The electric pickup truck market is very promising. Under the push of EV’s worldwide and legal policies in states like California banning non-eco truck sales by 2035, we believe that a sizable amount of customers will be looking to purchase and upgrade to newer trucks. EV pickup truck sales are suggested to grow at a 58% change of annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2020 and 2030.
Of the roughly 56 million pickups in the United States today, nearly 60% of them are either GM Full-Size or Ford F-Series, and account for almost 12% of all vehicles on the road. The Ram Pickup is third. All three brands are ideal target markets for our products.
New Pickup Truck Sales in the United States by Month (All Models)
With 2021 year-end sales of approximately 726,000 units, the Ford F-Series was the best-selling light truck in the United States1. The Ford F-Series is a series of full-size pickup trucks, the most popular variant being the. The 14th generation of this model was released in 2020.
Pickup truck sales growth in the U.S. decreased in 2021 compared with 2020. U.S. pickup truck sales came to around 2.84 million units in 20212, compared to 2.96 million units in 20203. This decline is largely attributed to chip shortages causing a decrease in trucks manufactured. With the exception of Toyota pickups, light trucks built by U.S.-based automakers continue to be favorites among U.S. vehicle buyers.

Distribution
We distribute our tonneau covers through wholesalers, private labels, distributors, and online retail channels in Canada and the United States. We will provide our tonneau covers through Original Equipment Manufacturers and our own eCommerce platform.
The specialty equipment (aftermarket) consists of three major types of customers, which include master warehouse distributors, dealers and wholesalers, and retail end consumers. Master warehouse distributors stock and distribute products to their customers, which are usually local dealers and wholesalers. Dealers and wholesalers are local stores which sell products to some businesses and retail consumers in their area and online. Dealers purchase most of their products from their local distributor who deliver to them regularly. Retail end consumers are simply the end users of the products.
Competition
In our estimation, for many years, consumers looking to purchase tonneau covers have had a limited number of options available, mostly including:
Soft Folding & Roll-up covers (Vinyl covers);
Solid one piece caps and lids (Plastic & Fiberglass);
Retractable Covers (Plastic & Aluminum); and
Hard Folding & Standing Covers (Aluminum and FRP).
Solid one piece covers and retractable covers are the least desirable because of their limited functionality and overall cost. We believe that consumers want a less cumbersome tonneau cover with high functionality and at a lower cost.
That is why the most popular covers in today’s market are soft and hard folding/rolling tonneau covers, and the biggest growth opportunity in the tonneau cover market is the aggressively priced hard folding tonneau cover market niche.
Our largest competitor is Truck Hero, which has acquired upwards of 16 independent tonneau cover brands in North America. Truck Hero’s products directly compete with our products. Our other competitors include LEER, Access, Truck Covers USA and Paragon.
We believe that by being independent, aggressively priced, innovative, and operationally sound, we will be able to grow revenues with minimal sales effort while continuing to develop our relationships with our larger clients.
Furthermore, we believe our Company is currently the only independent Business-to-Business (B2B) producer of tonneau covers in the United States and Canada that does not yet sell directly to customers (B2C). Worksport believes that we can expand our current customer base throughout our current and future markets and intends to enter various B2C channels to boost sales of new products.
The Company plans to expand to other markets outside the United States and Canada. We intend to generate revenue in new markets including but not limited to the automotive specialty equipment market and global Original Equipment Manufacturers.
Our goal is to become the leader in the tonneau cover market through innovation. Our main objective is to design and engineer our products to better suit today’s new, dynamic, and innovative models of light trucks and electric trucks, whether that be through Worksport’s Terravis System or through innovations within its subsidiary, Terravis Energy, Inc.
Research and Development
We will spend for research and development activities on an ongoing basis. The company is actively acquiring new engineering and design assets, both in-house and third-party. The Company’s subsidiary, Terravis Energy, Inc., researches green energy solutions for home and community power as well as Electric Vehicle DC charging. Much of the Company’s research and development is focused on hydrogen fuel cell power, which serves as a strong basis for grid-independent power solutions.
Environmental Compliance
We are committed to high environmental standards and carry out our activities and operations in compliance with all relevant and applicable environmental regulations and best industry practices. Costs of environmental regulatory compliance are not expected to be significant.
Employees
We currently employ eleven full-time employees, including our Chief Executive Officer. We intend to hire additional employees as our operations grow. We rely on independent contractors for additional labor, as needed.
Executive Offices
Our principal business address and R&D facility is located at 7299 E Danbro Crescent, Mississauga, ON L5N 6P8, Canada while our secondary business address is 3120 Rutherford Road, Suite 414, Vaughan, ON L4K 0B2, Canada.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Prospective investors should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this annual report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this annual report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” This discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
COVID-19
The outbreak of the coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions.
Additionally, while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our business, financing or the global economy as a whole. However, these effects could have a material impact on our liquidity, capital resources, operations and business and those of the third parties on which we rely. The management and board of the Company is constantly monitoring this situation to minimize potential losses.
Business Overview
Inflation
In an inflationary economy, Worksport benefits from debt financing. While Worksport ended December 31, 2021 with little to no long term debt, Worksport is currently in the process of securing a mortgage for its West Seneca production facility. Worksport has the benefit of mortgaging the facility in a low interest rate environment - locking in a lower rate - while also benefiting from the lower real cost of mortgage payments in an inflationary environment.
Such an inflationary environment also increases Worksport’s costs, however. These costs include direct costs such as the cost of raw goods or processed goods for its OEM manufacturing as well as indirect costs such as overhead and rent. Due to these forecasted price increases and the high increases in ocean freight and container handling costs as a result of 2021 supply chain issues, Worksport has updated its product pricing for 2022.
Gasoline Prices and Supply Chain Issues
Worksport has faced significantly higher ocean freight, trucking, and container handling costs in 2021 than it did in previous years. Further, last mile delivery costs have recently increased - all of which have increased the Company’s products’ landed costs. This more recent rise in gasoline prices has worsened these costs, and the Company is operating under the assumption these higher costs will remain throughout 2022.
Worksport’s transition towards Made in America manufacturing will largely offset these higher costs, as the Company will be less exposed to higher international shipping costs. Worksport is also identifying North American suppliers of its products’ components and will prioritize transport by rail when possible to avoid high trucking costs.
Rising Popularity of Electric Vehicles
Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been exponentially increasing in consumer interest, whether that interest take the form of vehicle pre-orders, sales, or investments. As Worksport begins marketing its Terravis SOLIS and COR, the Company plans to market the SOLIS as a must-have accessory for electric light duty vehicle owners while simultaneously riding the coattails of EV popularity to promote its other products (COR and conventional tonneau covers) to the very large population of Americans that have an interest in EVs without the funds to purchase them. Further, participating in the EV space allows the Company to target consumers with an interest in cutting-edge technologies - a great market to which to promote its COR.
Regulatory Environment Favoring Electric Vehicles
The Build Back Better Bill was a strong indication of upcoming and favorable USA regulations. Any regulation that improves North America’s Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure or provide grants to businesses operating in the EV space will benefit Worksport. While the Company is primarily focused on the light duty vehicle market, it is the only existing participant in the electric-specific, light duty vehicle aftermarket accessories market and, therefore, is positioned to benefit greatly from any bill that increases the prevalence of electric light duty vehicles.
Limited Competitive Landscape
Worksport’s conventional tonneau covers are engineered for enhanced user experience and resistance to wear-and-tear, making them strong and competitive products in an otherwise consolidated and saturated market. The Terravis COR, however, operates in a much wider yet unsaturated market. The global Portable Power Station market is quickly growing, and the competitive landscape is far from consolidated. The solar tonneau cover market is in its infancy, and it’s a market in which the Company has first-mover advantage. To ensure it does not fall behind future competitors, the Company is highly focused on protecting its intellectual property both domestically and abroad.
Results of Operations
Revenue
For the year ended December 31, 2021, revenues from the entire line of Worksport products were $303,750, as compared to $346,144 for the year ended, December 31, 2020. The year over year sales decreased by approximately 12% due to the Company shifting its focus to building up its inventory to mitigate against potential supply chain issues in anticipation of launching its e-commerce platform, while it repositions to domestic manufacturing.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, revenue generated in Canada was $40,683, as compared to $28,917 for the same period in 2020, an increase of 41%. For the year ended December 31, 2021, revenue generated in the United States was $263,067, compared to $317,227 for the same period in 2020. This represents a decrease in US-source revenue of approximately 17% year-over-year. Similar to above, the decrease in revenue was a result of the Company shifting its focus to building up its inventory to mitigate against potential supply chain issues in anticipation of launching its e-commerce platform, while it repositions to domestic manufacturing. In addition, increase cost of shipping and delivery as a result of supply chain disruption, gas prices and inflation contributing to overall sales decrease for fiscal 2021.
Sales from online retailers of the Worksport products decreased from $337,053 in 2020 to $263,116 in 2021, a decrease of 22%. Online retailers accounted for 87% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to 90% for the year ended December 31, 2020. Distributor sales increased for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared with the year ended December 31, 2020 with sales of $40,349 and $29,699, respectively. Worksport expects to continue to grow its fields of business as it develops unique and non-competing products to offer to other prospective clients in the US and Canadian markets.
Currently, Worksport works closely with one distributor in Canada, along with its own contracted distribution and inventory facility in Breinigsville, PA and Depew, NY. This does not include multiple independent online retailers.
Although Worksport currently supports a total of nine dealers and distributors, Worksport will return to a focus on online sales with new inventory being received in the US market for 2021. Worksport continues to believe the trend of increasing sales through online retailers will continue to outpace the traditional distribution business model. Moreover, reputable online retailers’ customers tend to provide larger sales volumes, greater margin of profit, and greater protection against price erosion.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales increased by 17%, from $298,996 for the year ended December 31, 2020 to $350,702 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 115% and 86% for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in percentage of sales resulted in a gross margin decrease from 14% for the year ended December 31, 2020 to negative 15% for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales and decrease in gross margin was primarily due to increased cost associated with acquiring and selling inventory translating to increased cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the prior year.
Within cost of sales, shipping and freight costs accounted for 79% of cost of sales during the year ended December 31, 2021, whereas in 2020, it accounted for 28% of cost of sales. This increase is primarily attributed to an increase in international shipping expense due to supply chain issues and rising oil prices as well as increase in sales volume resulting in higher overall shipping and freight cost.
Worksport provides its distributors and online retailers an “all-in” wholesale price. This includes any import duty charges, taxes and shipping charges. Discounts are applied if the distributor or retailer chooses to use their own shipping process. Certain exceptions apply on rare occasions where product is shipped outside the contiguous United Sates or from the United States to Canada. Volume discounts are also offered to certain higher volume customers. Worksport also offers a “dock price” or “pickup program,” where clients are able to pick up product directly from one of Worksport stocking warehouses.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased for year ended December 31, 2021 by $6,481,392, from $1,033,387 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 to $7,514,779 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, due to the following factors.
● General and administrative expense increased by $1,653,309 from $201,929 for 2020 to $1,855,238 for 2021. The increase was related to research and development and salaries as the Company seeks to expand its operations and further develop its products.
● Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1,238,684, from $148,008 for 2020 to $1,386,692 for 2021. The increase in sales and marketing is a result of building brand and product awareness.
● Professional fees which include accounting, legal and consulting fees, increased from $679,654 in 2020 to $4,268,684 in 2021. The increase was due to the employment of various third-party consultants to help expand the Company’s business operations and in connection with the Company’s underwritten public offering of common stock and warrants in August 2021.
● The Company realized a loss on foreign exchange of $4,165 during 2021, an increase of $369 compared to $3,796 during 2020.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $335,354, compared to $201,381 the prior year, representing an increase of $133,973. The difference can be attributed to the Company recognizing a gain on settlement of debt in the prior year and recognition of bad debt for 2021.
Net Loss
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $7,897,085, compared to a net loss of $1,187,620 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of 565%. The increase in the net loss can be attributed to the increase of various operating expenses as the Company focuses on expanding its operations, research and development programs and manufacturing and supply chains.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $28,567,333 in cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents. The Company has generated only limited revenues and has relied primarily upon capital generated from public and private offerings of its securities.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company made repayments of $62,905 of promissory notes. The Company believes its current cash balances coupled with anticipated cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient to meet its working capital requirements for at least one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Based on current internal projections, the Company believes it has and/or will generate sufficient cash for its operational needs, for at least one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Management is focused on growing the Company’s existing product offerings, as well as its customer base, to increase its revenues. The Company cannot give assurance that it can increase its cash balances or limit its cash consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances for its planned operations or future business developments. Future business development and demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced. The Company may need to raise additional capital in the future. However, the Company cannot assure that it will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all. Subject to the foregoing, management believes that the Company has sufficient capital and liquidity to fund its operations for at least one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million from the Public Offering, and after deducting the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses payable by the Company, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $16.1 million.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 3 to our financial statements as included in this annual report. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Worksport, LTD (formerly Franchise Holdings International, Inc.)
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Worksport, LTD (the Company) as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters (CAM) communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Equity Transactions and Conversion of Debt Securities
As discussed in Note 8, 9, 10, and 22 to the financial statements, the Company has issued a significant amount of equity securities, many of which were issued to settle its promissory notes and convertible notes payable. Many of the notes are issued with original issuance discounts and with warrants which are valued and recorded as a discount to the notes. The tracking of these transactions can be complicated and require management to estimate the value of equity securities using a Black Sholes option pricing model.
We identified the fair market value of debt and equity transactions and related conversions to be a critical audit matter. The calculations can be complex and subject to error.
To address this critical audit matter, we gained an understanding of Management’s process to record the equity and debt transactions. We obtained their calculations and tested its clerical accuracy and the inputs. We agreed the basic terms to source agreements and considered key assumptions. Finally, we recalculated the recorded values and conversion amounts.

g) Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior period Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The Company reclassified $31,193 of changes from accounts payable and accrued liabilities under operating assets and liabilities to repayment of lease liability under financing activities.

3. Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on account and demand deposits with maturities of three months or less.
Receivables - Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. Receivables are reviewed individually for collectability. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, allowances may be required.
The Company offers credit terms on the sale of the Company’s products to a significant majority of the Company’s customers and requires no collateral from these customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the Company’s historical experience and a specific review or accounts receivable at the end of each period. As at December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by a weighted average basis. Cost includes the cost of materials plus direct labor applied to the product.
Warranties - The Company offers limited warranties against defective products. Customers who are not satisfied with their purchase may attempt to have their purchases reimbursed outside past the warranty period.
Revenue Recognition - In accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, sales are recognized when products are shipped, with no right of return but reimbursement maybe offered for defective products and the title and risk of loss has passed to unaffiliated customers or when they are delivered based on the terms of the sale, there is an identifiable contract with a customer with defined performance obligations, the transaction price is determinable, and the entity has fulfilled its performance obligation. Revenue related to shipping and handling costs billed to customers is included in net sales and the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of products sold.
Property and Equipment - Capital assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives of Property and Equipment
Furniture and equipment years
Automobile years
Computers years
Patents years
Leasehold improvements years
Share-based payments - The Company offers a share option plan for its directors, officers, employees and consultants. ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of the performance commitment date or performance completion date.
Income Taxes - Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income, and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the consolidated financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed in FASB ASC 740. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
Tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the positions will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.

December 31, 2021 and 2020
3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Foreign Currency Translation - Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using at the historical exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions. All exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Financial Instruments - Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 825, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s current financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and shareholder loan, approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Measurement - The Company initially measures its financial instrument at fair value, except for certain non-arm’s length transactions. The Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost, except for investments in equity instruments that are quoted in an active market, which are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings for the period in which they occur.
Financial assets measured at amortized cost include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, related party receivable, other receivables and share subscriptions receivable. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and promissory note payable.
Related Party Transactions - All transactions with related parties are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount.
Intangible Assets and Impairment - Patents and other intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets, such as trademarks with indefinite live are not amortized. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment at least annually or when events or circumstances arise that indicate the existence of impairment. The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no impairment losses related to intangible assets.
Lease Accounting - On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new accounting standards ASC 842 that requires lessees to recognize operating leases on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the value of the discounted future lease payments. Expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements are required prospectively and are included in Note 18.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and does not anticipate a material impact.
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832). This ASU requires business entities to disclose information about government assistance they receive if the transactions were accounted for by analogy to either a grant or a contribution accounting model. The disclosure requirements include the nature of the transaction and the related accounting policy used, the line items on the balance sheets and statements of operations that are affected and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item and the significant terms and conditions of the transactions. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The disclosure requirements can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all transactions in the scope of the amendments that are reflected in the financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions that are entered into after the date of initial application. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and does not anticipate a material impact.

Under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the option plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, have a maximum term of 10 years and vest at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
All equity-settled share-based payments are ultimately recognized as an expense in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss with a corresponding credit to “Additional Paid in Capital.” If vesting periods or other non-market vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognized in prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different to that estimated on vesting.

24. COVID-19
The outbreak of the coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions.
Additionally, while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our business, financing or the global economy as a whole. However, these effects could have a material impact on our liquidity, capital resources, operations and business and those of the third parties on which we rely. The management and board of the Company is constantly monitoring this situation to minimize potential losses.
25. Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 31, 2022 which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued and the following events after year end occurred:
● On February 17, 2022, Worksport appointed Tom DiNanno to its Board of Advisors for a monthly fee of $5,000 USD in addition to a 10,000 common share option grant.
● Worksport agreed to issue 20,000 shares of common stock to employees/consultants. Additionally, Worksport has agreed to issue Stock Options of Terravis Energy, Inc., a Worksport subsidiary, to Lorenzo Rossi and Steven Rossi in the amount of 750,000 and 250,000 options, respectively.
● Worksport agreed to issue 10,000 Common Shares to Zenfar Investments Ltd on January 13, 2022 for manufacturing consulting services rendered per agreement signed on March 3, 2021.
● Worksport agreed to issue 40,000 Common Shares to Exchange Listing LLC on March 18, 2022 for capital markets and strategic advisory services rendered per agreement signed on January 26, 2022.
● Worksport has initiated final steps towards closing on the West Seneca production facility it began looking into in 2021, applying for a mortgage and initiating a Phase 2 Environmental Assessment. We are seeking to purchase the property for $8.125M, financing $5.3M via mortgage with an interest rate of prime rate + 5.5% while putting down $2.825M on the property.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on our management’s evaluation (with the participation of the individuals serving as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer) of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, each of the individuals serving as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the individuals serving as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.
Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We did not design written policies and procedures at a sufficient level of precision to support the operating effectiveness of the controls to prevent and detect potential errors. We also did not maintain adequate documentation to evidence the operating effectiveness of certain control activities. Lastly, we did not maintain appropriate access to certain systems and did not maintain appropriate segregation of duties related to processes associated within those systems.
These control deficiencies resulted in several immaterial misstatements to the preliminary financial statements that were corrected and/or deemed immaterial in the aggregate prior to issuance of the financial statements. These control deficiencies create a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and there we concluded that the deficiencies represent material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2021.
Remediation Plan
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we continued to enhance our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to remediate the material weaknesses described above.
Our remediation process includes, but not limited to:
● Investing in IT systems to enhance our operational and financial reporting and internal controls.
● Enhancing the organizational structure to support financial reporting processes and internal controls.
● Providing guidance, education and training to employees relating to our accounting policies and procedures.
● Further developing and documenting detailed policies and procedures regarding business processes for significant accounts, critical accounting policies and critical accounting estimates.
● Establishing effective general controls over IT systems to ensure that information produced can be relied upon by process level controls is relevant and reliable.
We expect to remediate these material weaknesses in the first half of 2022. However, we may discover additional material weaknesses that may require additional time and resources to remediate.
Attestation Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to the deferral allowed under the Jobs Act for emerging growth companies.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than with respect to the remediation efforts discussed above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Although we have altered some work routines due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the changes in our work environment, including remote work arrangements, have not materially impacted our internal controls over financial reporting and have not adversely affected the Company’s ability to maintain operations.

Indemnification and Limitation on Liability of Directors
Our articles of incorporation limit the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Nothing contained in the provisions will be construed to deprive any director of his right to all defenses ordinarily available to the director nor will anything herein be construed to deprive any director of any right he may have for contribution from any other director or other person.
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents where indemnification will be required or permitted. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Equity Incentive Plans
In July 2015, the Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), effective as of July 5, 2015. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of the following types of stock awards: (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonstatutory stock options, (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv) restricted stock awards, (v) restricted stock unit awards and (vi) other stock awards.

The Board reserved 500,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the grant of awards under the 2015 Plan. Pursuant to the 2015 Plan, a Stock Option for 30,000 shares was granted to each Craig Loverock, Ned L. Siegel, and William Caragol on December 29th.

The term of the Employment Agreement commenced on May 10, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) and continues until the fifth (5th) anniversary thereof (the “Initial Term”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement; provided that, on such fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date and each third annual anniversary thereafter (such date and each annual anniversary thereof, a “Renewal Date”), the Employment Agreement will be automatically renewed, upon the same terms and conditions, for successive periods of three (3) years (each, a “Renewal Term”), unless either party provides written notice of its intention not to extend the term of the Agreement at least 90 days prior to the applicable Renewal Date.
Mr. Rossi’s annual base salary will be $300,000 (“Base Salary”) and Mr. Rossi shall be entitled to annual bonus (“Bonus”) equal to 50% of his Base Salary, provided that certain performance goals are met. The performance goals will be established on an annual basis by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
The Employment Agreement may be terminated by the Company with or without “Cause” (as defined below) or by the Executive with or without “Good Reason” (as defined below).
The term “Cause” includes discharge by Company on account of the occurrence of one or more of the following events:
(i) Executive’s continued refusal or failure to perform (other than by reason of Disability) Executive’s material duties and responsibilities to the Company;
(ii) a material breach of the Employment Agreement;

The term “Good Reason” generally includes a reduction in the Base Salary, a reduction in job title, position or responsibility, a material breach by the Company of the Employment Agreement, or a material relocation in worksite.
In the event the Employment Agreement is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or by Mr. Rossi for Good Reason, Mr. Rossi will receive an amount equal to his Base Salary at the rate in effect as of the date immediately preceding such termination until the earlier of (i) the expiration date of the Term or (ii) the first anniversary of the date of termination; provided that if the date of termination is after the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Mr. Rossi will receive the Base Salary and accrued benefits for 18 months following the effective date of termination. The Rossi shall also be entitled to receive earned but not paid Bonuses and any pro rata portion of the amount of Executive’s Bonus for the year in which termination occurs that would have been payable based on actual performance determined under the terms of the Bonus as then in effect for such year, and expenses incurred through the date of termination and any other benefits accrued but not paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mr. Rossi’s right to receive any unearned compensation is conditioned on Mr. Rossi execution and delivery to the Company a general release of claims.
If the date of termination for Good Reason is after the end of a calendar year but prior to such time as Mr. Rossi’s Bonus, if any, is paid, then Mr. Rossi will receive a Bonus as determined by the Compensation Committee prorated for the time of employment during such year of termination.
Mr. Rossi has the right under the Employment Agreement to terminate his employment for other than Good Reason upon 30 days’ written notice to the Company. If Mr. Rossi terminates the Employment Agreement for other than Good Reason, Mr. Rossi will receive an amount equal to his base salary, earned but not paid plus expenses incurred through the date of termination and any other benefits accrued but not paid.

Related Person Transaction Policy
Under our policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, including any transaction that was not a related person transaction when originally consummated or any transaction that was not initially identified as a related person transaction prior to consummation, our management must present information regarding the related person transaction to our Audit Committee, or, if Audit Committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our Board of Directors, for review, consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related persons, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, we will collect information that we deem reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable us to identify any existing or potential related person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under our code of business conduct and ethics, our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. In considering related person transactions, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to:
● the risks, costs and benefits to us;
● the impact on a director’s independence in the event that the related person is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated;
● the availability of other sources for comparable services or products; and
● the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally.
The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related person transaction, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders, as our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.
Director Independence
An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Steven Rossi, Lorenzo Rossi, Craig Loverock, William Caragol and Ned L. Siegel serve as members of our Board of Directors. Our Board has determined that Craig Loverock, William Caragol and Ned L. Siegel are “independent directors” as defined in the Nasdaq listing rules and under Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act and applicable SEC rules.
