ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy Disclosure

Risk Management and Strategy

Overview of Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes

The Company is an early-stage digital engagement company with two employees and limited operating history. In light of the Company’s current stage of development, size, and the scope of its operations, the Company has not implemented a formal, stand-alone cybersecurity risk management program or a dedicated cybersecurity framework. The Company does not currently employ a Chief Information Security Officer or other dedicated cybersecurity personnel.

Notwithstanding the absence of a formal program, the Company is mindful of the cybersecurity risks inherent in operating a digital technology business. The Company’s primary technology asset is the Digital Engagement Engine, a proprietary platform built on microservices architecture that is used to provide digital activation and engagement solutions to its business-to-business clients. The Company’s operations rely on cloud-based third-party services and commercially available software tools for communications, data storage, and business operations. The Company relies on the security controls, updates, and patches provided by its third-party technology vendors as a primary component of its operational security posture.

At this stage of the Company’s development, cybersecurity risk considerations are addressed informally by the Company’s executive management on an as-needed basis. Management periodically reviews operational practices with a view toward identifying and mitigating potential risks, including risks arising from cybersecurity threats, as part of its general oversight of business operations. The Company has not adopted formal written policies or procedures specifically governing cybersecurity risk assessment or incident response.

Integration into Overall Risk Management

The Company does not currently maintain a formal enterprise risk management (“ERM”) framework or system. Because the Company’s overall risk management approach is informal and conducted at the executive level given its size, cybersecurity risk considerations are similarly addressed at that level and are not separately integrated into a distinct ERM process. Management considers cybersecurity risks as part of its broader assessment of operational risks facing the Company.

Third-Party Assessors and Consultants

The Company does not currently engage outside assessors, consultants, auditors, or other third parties specifically to assess, test, or otherwise assist with the management of cybersecurity risks. The Company has not obtained a third-party cybersecurity audit or assessment. As the Company’s operations and resources grow, the Company intends to evaluate whether to engage qualified third-party cybersecurity professionals.

Third-Party Service Provider Risks

The Company’s operations depend in part on third-party service providers for cloud-based infrastructure, software, and related technology services. The Company does not currently have formal processes specifically designed to oversee and assess cybersecurity risks associated with its third-party service providers. The Company relies principally on the representations, security practices, and contractual commitments of its third-party vendors with respect to the security of data and systems managed by such vendors. The Company intends to evaluate and, where appropriate, implement vendor security review practices as its business develops.

Material Impact of Cybersecurity Risks and Incidents

To the Company’s knowledge, the Company has not experienced any cybersecurity incidents during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, or as of the date of this Annual Report, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not be subject to cybersecurity incidents in the future. Cybersecurity risks and potential incidents, if realized, could adversely affect the Company’s operations, client relationships, intellectual property, and financial results.

Governance

Board of Directors Oversight

The Company’s Board of Directors currently consists of a sole Director, Thomas Spruce, who also serves as Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary of the Company. The Board of Directors does not have a separate audit committee, risk committee, or cybersecurity committee. As the sole Director, Mr. Spruce is responsible for the oversight of all material risks facing the Company, including risks from cybersecurity threats.

Given the Company’s size and the absence of board-level committees, cybersecurity risk information is communicated to the sole Director through the Company’s executive management team on an informal basis as circumstances warrant. The sole Director reviews and considers cybersecurity risks as part of his broader oversight of the Company’s operational risks and strategic direction.

Management’s Role in Cybersecurity Risk Assessment and Management

Day-to-day responsibility for identifying, assessing, and managing cybersecurity risks rests with the Company’s executive officers, principally Peter Hager, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Thomas Spruce, Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary. Mr. Hager and Mr. Spruce are responsible for overseeing the Company’s technology operations, vendor relationships, and data management practices, and accordingly exercise primary managerial responsibility over matters that may give rise to cybersecurity risks.

Neither Mr. Hager nor Mr. Spruce holds formal cybersecurity certifications or has dedicated cybersecurity training. Their oversight of cybersecurity risk is conducted in the context of their broader operational and executive responsibilities. The Company does not have management-level committees or positions dedicated exclusively to cybersecurity risk.

Because the Company’s Board of Directors consists solely of Mr. Spruce, who also serves as Chief Operations Officer, the reporting of cybersecurity risk information from management to the Board of Directors occurs within the same person. Mr. Spruce, in his management capacity, monitors operational risks as they arise and, in his capacity as sole Director, exercises board-level oversight of those risks, including any cybersecurity risks or incidents that may be identified.

The Company has not established formal processes for the prevention, detection, mitigation, or remediation of cybersecurity incidents. In the event a potential cybersecurity incident is identified, the Company’s executive officers would assess the nature, scope, and severity of the incident and determine appropriate responsive measures. The Company intends to develop more formalized cybersecurity incident response procedures as its operations and resources develop.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

All operations will occur at Company’s corporate facilities in Minneapolis, MN, located at:

400 1st Ave N., Ste. 100

Minneapolis, MN 55401

or in remote offices of the employees.

Management permits the Company to use these premises at no cost to the Company. Currently, this space is sufficient to meet our needs, however, once we expand our business to a significant degree, we will have to find a larger space. We do not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required additional space. We do not currently own any real property.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

As previously disclosed, on November 4, 2021, a lawsuit captioned CAMRON ELIZABETH v. MARK PALUMBO et al., Case No. CVPS2106116 was filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside against the Company and certain of the former company’s (CannAssist International Corp.) executive officers (collectively, the “Defendants”). On April 30, 2024, a Final Statement of Decision was issued pursuant to which the Defendants were found liable. The Company still believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to appeal the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this appeal. Furthermore, the Company and Mark Palumbo, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, had entered into an indemnification agreement pursuant to which Mr. Palumbo agreed to indemnify the Company for all costs and expenses related to this matter, including, without limitation, costs arising from any judgment against the Company.

On May 30, 2024, the Company filed suit against BF Borgers CPA PC and its owner (“BF Borgers”) in a class action lawsuit captioned Electronic Servitor Publication Network, Inc. v. BF Borgers CPA PC. et al. (the “Class Action Lawsuit”). In August 2025, the Company and BF Borgers agreed to a settlement and the Class Action Lawsuit was subsequently dismissed.

Other than as disclosed above, we know of no other material, existing or pending legal proceedings against the Company, nor is it involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation during the period of this report. Other than as disclosed above, we know of no other proceedings in which our directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest during the period of this report.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

As of July 17, 2024, our common stock is listed on the OTC Expert Market under the symbol “XESP.” The OTC Expert Market serves broker-dealer pricing and investor best execution needs. Quotations in Expert Market securities are restricted from public quoting and, as such, there is currently no public market for the Company’s securities.

At such time as it qualifies, the Company may choose to apply for quotation of its securities on the OTC Bulletin Board. The OTC Bulletin Board is a dealer-driven quotation service. Unlike the Nasdaq Stock Market, companies cannot directly apply to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, only market makers can initiate quotes, and quoted companies do not have to meet any quantitative financial requirements. Any equity security of a reporting company not listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or on a national securities exchange is eligible.

As such time as it qualifies, the Company may choose to apply for quotation of its securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In general, there is greatest liquidity for traded securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market and less on the OTC Bulletin Board. It is not possible to predict where, if at all, the securities of the Company will be traded following a business combination.

Prior to July 17, 2024, our common stock traded on the OTCQB® Venture Market under the symbol “XESP.” Unlike the Nasdaq Stock Market, companies cannot directly apply to be quoted on the OTCQB® Venture Market, only market makers can initiate quotes, and quoted companies do not have to meet any quantitative financial requirements. Any equity security of a reporting company not listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or on a national securities exchange is eligible.

The following quotations reflect the high and low bids for our common shares based on inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions.

The high and low bid prices of our common stock for the periods indicated below are as follows:

Stockholders

As of December 31, 2024, there were approximately 93 stockholders.

Dividends

We have not paid, nor declared, any cash dividends since our inception and do not intend to declare or pay any such dividends in the foreseeable future. Our ability to pay cash dividends is subject to limitations imposed by state law.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

The 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Equity Incentive Plan”) was approved by the Board on September 22, 2023 and our stockholders on September 27, 2023.

ITEM 6. [RESERVED]

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors discussed elsewhere in this report.

Certain information included herein contains statements that may be considered forward-looking statements, such as statements relating to our anticipated revenues, gross margin and operating results, future performance and operations, plans for future expansion, capital spending, sources of liquidity, and financing sources. This forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future, and accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made herein. These risks and uncertainties include those relating to our liquidity requirements, the continued growth of the Company’s industry, the success of our product development, marketing and sales activities, vigorous competition in the construction industry, dependence on existing management, leverage and debt service (including sensitivity to fluctuations in interest rates), domestic or global economic conditions, the inherent uncertainty and costs of prolonged arbitration or litigation, and changes in federal or state tax laws or the administration of such laws.

Overview

Electronic Servitor Publication Network Inc. was incorporated on May 17, 2017 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company is a digital engagement company providing growth for B2B companies through its digital activation and engagement solutions for multiple verticals. The Company’s managed service product is powered by a sophisticated tech stack — the Digital Engagement Engine. The Company’s technology provides intelligent interaction management, dynamic content provisioning, and a logic-driven workflow that creates relevant digital experiences that accelerate an audience from awareness to action — driving growth for client companies.

The Company’s corporate offices are located at 107 Chestnut Street East, Ste. 100, Stillwater, MN 55082-5524. The Company’s website is www.electronicservitor.com. The Company’s telephone number is (833) 991-0800.

The Company’s common stock is listed on the OTC Expert Market under the stock ticker symbol XESP.

The Company anticipates that it would need approximately $1,500,000 over the next 12 months to continue as a going concern, satisfy its capital commitments and continue its operations in accordance with its current business plan. In addition to revenues generated from sales, the Chief Executive Officer and several shareholders may fund the Company’s operations, if needed, during the next 12 months or until the Company can generate an ongoing source of capital sufficient to independently continue its operations.

For the period ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s independent auditors issued a report raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its principal stockholders, its ability to obtain necessary equity financing, or its ability to sell its services to generate consistent profitability. 

Revenues and Losses

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company posted revenues of $105,000. For that same year ended, total operating expenses were $714,512, consisting of general and administrative expenses of $103,824, professional fees of $51,300 and stock-based compensation fees of $559,388. Loss from operations and before other expenses and income taxes totaled $609,512. Other expenses consisted of $25,004 in interest expense. After income tax expense of $0, the Company generated a net loss from continuing operations of $634,516, and a total net loss of $634,516.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had total assets of $54,557.

Since its inception, the Company has devoted most of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and staff and raising capital. Accordingly, the Company was considered to be in the development stage until it recently began formal operations. The Company generated limited revenues since its inception and there is no assurance of future revenues.

The Company’s proposed activities will necessitate significant uses of capital beyond 2024.

There is no assurance that the Company’s activities will generate sufficient revenues to sustain its operations without additional capital, or if additional capital is needed, that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. Accordingly, given the Company’s limited cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company will be unable to implement its business plans and proposed operations unless it obtains additional financing or otherwise is able to generate revenues and profits. The Company may raise additional capital through sales of debt or equity, obtain loan financing or develop and consummate other alternative financial plans. In the interim, the Company plans to rely on its primary shareholder to continue his commitment to fund the Company’s continuing operating requirements. Management anticipates a total capital raise of $1,500,000 over the course of the following four consecutive quarters through private placements; provided, however, that the Company will require a minimum of $1,500,000 for the next 12 months to fund its operations, which will be used to fund expenses related to Platform Finalization Costs, Initial Marketing, Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment, Working Capital, Professional Fees and Licensure and Miscellaneous Development Costs. Management believes that this capital would allow the Company to meet its operating cash requirements and would facilitate the Company’s business of selling and distributing its products. Management also believes that the acquisition of such assets would generate revenue to cover overhead cost and general liabilities of the Company and allow the Company to achieve overall sustainable profitability.

Discussion of the Year Ended December 31, 2024, as compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2023

For the year ended December 31, 2024 had revenue of $105,000. For the year ended December 31, 2023 had revenue of $60,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company posted operating expenses from continuing operations of $ 714,512, consisting of general and administrative expenses of $103,824, professional fees of $51,300 and stock-based compensation of $559,388. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company posted operating expenses from continuing operations of $872,950, consisting of general and administrative expenses of $174,577, professional fees of $85,721 and stock-based compensation of $612,652.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company posted a net loss of $634,516 from continuing operations for a total net loss for the year of $634,516, compared to a net loss of $830,602 from continuing operations for a total net loss for the year of $830,602 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company generated $33,876 in cash provided by operating activities, used $7,750 cash in financing activities, and the Company did not use or generate any cash in investing activities. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company generated $33,876 in cash provided by operating activities, used $7,750 in cash in financing activities, and the Company did not use or generate any cash in investing activities.

Plan of Operations

Over the next five years, XESP will continue to expand its operations via several different facets of operation. Foremost, the Company will continue to expand its relationships with B2B companies in a broad range of industries. XESP will seek to leverage its successes in managing single growth objectives to manage multiple growth objectives for existing client companies. Also, XESP will continue to expand its Channel Partner program and will establish an Affiliate Referral program.

There is no assurance that the Company’s activities will generate sufficient revenues to sustain its operations without additional capital, or if additional capital is needed, that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. Accordingly, given the Company’s limited cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company will be unable to implement its business plans and proposed operations unless it obtains additional financing or otherwise is able to generate revenues and profits. The Company may raise additional capital through sales of debt or equity, obtain loan financing or develop and consummate other alternative financial plans. In the interim, the Company plans to rely on its primary shareholder to continue his commitment to fund the Company’s continuing operating requirements. Management anticipates a total capital raise of $1,500,000 over the course of the following four consecutive quarters through private placements; provided, however, that the Company will require a minimum of $1,500,000 for the next 12 months to fund its operations, which will be used to fund expenses related to Platform Finalization Costs, Initial Marketing, Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment, Working Capital, Professional Fees and Licensure and Miscellaneous Development Costs. Management believes that this capital would allow the Company to meet its operating cash requirements and would facilitate the Company’s business of selling and distributing its products. Management also believes that the acquisition of such assets would generate revenue to cover overhead cost and general liabilities of the Company and allow the Company to achieve overall sustainable profitability. 

Equipment Financing

The Company has no existing equipment financing arrangements.

Revenue

The Company has developed a technology platform that is specifically designed for digital activation and engagement. The platform’s functionality will allow its clients to better engage with their audiences on a global level. The platform will also provide in depth engagement analytics.

Managed Service: XESP bills clients a one-time Onboarding Fee and an ongoing Quarterly Management Fee. Services provided include codifying client business rules and objectives, operating principles, and target audience identification, providing a Gap Analysis, and providing ongoing consultative information on content provisioning, audience capture, audience activation, etc.

Gain Share: In addition to XESP’s Onboarding and Quarterly Management Fees, XESP earns a share of increased client revenues for the targeted service or product.

Channel Partners: XESP bills Channel Partners an ongoing Quarterly Fee. Channel Partners are service entities that promote and utilize XESP technologies as an extension of their services to their clients. Channel partners invoice their clients and manage the relationships.

Alternative Financial Planning

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash available of $54,557.

Management anticipates a total capital raise of $1,500,000 over the course of the following four consecutive quarters through private placements. Other than as stated herein, the Company has no alternative financial plans at the moment. If the Company is not able to successfully raise monies as needed through a private placement or other securities offering (including, but not limited to, a primary public offering of securities), the Company’s ability to operate effectively will be severely jeopardized.

The Company does not anticipate that it will generate revenue sufficient to cover its planned operating expenses, and the Company must obtain additional financing in order to develop and implement its business plan and proposed operations. If the Company is not successful in generating sufficient revenues and/or obtaining additional funding to develop its business plan and proposed operations, this could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

Refer to Note 2 of our financial statements contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K for a summary of our critical accounting policies and recently adopted and issued accounting standards.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a “smaller reporting company”, we have elected not to provide the disclosure required by this item.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

The required financial statements are included following the signature page of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

As previously disclosed, the Company had dismissed BF Borgers CPA PC (“Borgers”) as its independent registered accounting firm, effective as of May 6, 2024, because it was no longer authorized to perform audits for the Company.

As previously disclosed, on July 8, 2025, the Company engaged LAO Professionals, Certified Public Accountants, as its independent registered public accounting firm.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our prior principal executive and financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report (based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act) were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by the Report, we had failed to adequately invest in personnel and systems to accumulate, record and properly report on our results of operations.

We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, the end of our fiscal year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO 2013 Criteria). Management’s assessment included evaluation of such elements as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment.

Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, as of the end of the fiscal year, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, due to the material weaknesses set forth below.

The following is a summary of our material weaknesses as of December 31, 2024:

Lack of Thorough Controls and Segregation of Duties

The Company has not designed nor maintained effective controls over review of financial information, including cut-off, and there is also a lack of segregation of duties with regard to key treasury and accounting functions. These items contribute to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. The Company needs to develop an appropriate control environment, perform a risk assessment, develop control activities, and information, as well as monitoring activities, which we hope to implement over the next 12 months.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report. 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2024, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, no director or officer adopted or terminated any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has not adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of the Company’s securities by directors, officers, and employees, or the Company itself.

The Company is an early-stage company with two employees. The Company’s Board of Directors consists of a sole Director, Thomas Spruce, who also serves as the Company’s Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary. The Company does not have a compensation committee, an audit committee, or any other board committee. Given the very limited number of the Company’s directors, officers, and employees, and the early stage of the Company’s development and governance infrastructure, the Company has determined that adoption of a formal written insider trading policy is not practicable or necessary at this time.

The Company’s directors and officers are nonetheless subject to, and are expected to comply with, all applicable insider trading laws and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Section 10(b) thereof and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, as well as the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s executive officers are advised by the Company’s legal counsel with respect to their obligations under applicable securities laws, including restrictions on trading while in possession of material nonpublic information.

The Company anticipates that it will adopt written insider trading policies and procedures when it increases the number of its directors, officers, or employees, or when its governance infrastructure otherwise develops to a level at which such a policy is appropriate and practicable. In the interim, the Company will continue to monitor applicable legal and regulatory requirements and will adopt such policies as required or as otherwise deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that it does not have any independent directors as that term is defined by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). In assessing the independence of the directors, the Board considers any transactions, relationships and arrangements between our Company and our independent directors or their affiliated companies. This review is based primarily on responses of the directors to questions in a director and officer questionnaire regarding employment, business, familial, compensation and other relationships with our Company or our management.

Director Compensation

Aside from stock options disclosed above, directors do not receive any compensation for serving on the Board of Directors.

Committees and Terms

The Board of Directors has not established any committees. The Company will notify its shareholders for an annual shareholder meeting and that they may present proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement to be mailed in connection with any such annual meeting; such proposals must be received by the Company at least 90 days prior to the meeting. No other specific policy has been adopted in regard to the inclusion of shareholder nominations to the Board of Directors.

Legal Proceedings

As previously disclosed, on November 4, 2021, a lawsuit captioned CAMRON ELIZABETH v. MARK PALUMBO et al., Case No. CVPS2106116 was filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside against the Company and certain of the former company’s (CannAssist International Corp.) executive officers (collectively, the “Defendants”). On April 30, 2024, a Final Statement of Decision was issued pursuant to which the Defendants were found liable. The Company still believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to appeal the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this appeal. Furthermore, the Company and Mark Palumbo, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, had entered into an indemnification agreement pursuant to which Mr. Palumbo agreed to indemnify the Company for all costs and expenses related to this matter, including, without limitation, costs arising from any judgment against the Company.

On May 30, 2024, the Company filed suit against BF Borgers CPA PC and its owner (“BF Borgers”) in a class action lawsuit captioned Electronic Servitor Publication Network, Inc. v. BF Borgers CPA PC. et al. (the “Class Action Lawsuit”). In August 2025, the Company and BF Borgers agreed to a settlement and the Class Action Lawsuit was subsequently dismissed.

Other than as disclosed above, we know of no other material, existing or pending legal proceedings against the Company, nor is it involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation during the period of this report. Other than as disclosed above, we know of no other proceedings in which our directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest during the period of this report.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors has not adopted a code of ethics. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our Directors or the number of our employees.

Indemnification of Officers, Directors, Employees and Agents

The Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company provide that the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as amended from time to time, indemnify all directors of the Company, as well as any officers or employees of the Company to whom the Company has agreed to grant indemnification.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers provided that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (I) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The Delaware General Corporation Law provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the corporation's by-laws, any agreement, vote of shareholders or otherwise.

The effect of the foregoing is to require the Company to indemnify the officers and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR PERSONS CONTROLLING THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS, IT IS THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION THAT SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THE ACT AND IS THEREFORE UNENFORCEABLE.

Identification of Significant Employees

The Company currently has two employees, not including independent consultants.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

None of our current directors or executive officers have, during the past ten years:

Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Committees of the Board

Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our Directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the Board of Directors can adequately perform the functions of such committees.

Our Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors. The Board of Directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. Our Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.

A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President and Director, at the address appearing on the first page of this filing.

Risk Oversight

Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board of Directors. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Board of Directors discusses risk throughout the year generally or in connection with specific proposed actions. The Board of Directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board of Directors, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.

Corporate Governance

The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.

In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors reviews the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and policies.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors has not adopted a code of ethics. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our Directors or the number of our employees.
