Item 1. Description of the Business

Overview

The Company designs, manufactures, markets, sells or licenses and maintains its proprietary Turbulator systems for innovative liquid photopurification technology in the global marketplace (“SurePure Photopurification Technology” or our “Technology”). We have been engaged in these activities since 2005. Currently, our Technology uses Ultraviolet (“UV”) light in the C band (“UVC”) to process, preserve and sustain the natural quality of food ingredients, such as liquid egg and animal feed constituents, and beverage products, such as juices and concentrates, sugar syrup bases, alcoholic beverages and farm milk. In addition to the foregoing applications now in use, our SurePure Photopurification Technology is being tested for its capacity to reduce the microbial loads in turbid liquids intended for human consumption, such as dairy products, flavored water and coconut water, liquids with industrial applications, such as diesel and bio-ethanol, and liquids with pharmaceutical applications, such as eye preparations, saline drips and personal care products.

The use of UVC light energy with a specific wavelength to disinfect food surfaces, water and other beverages is well accepted. In 2001, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) amended its regulations to permit the use of UVC light as a means of purification for water and fruit juices under certain conditions. There are multiple systems that effectively use UVC to purify or disinfect water and transparent liquids. Beverages and other liquids, such as milk and fruit juice, and water and other liquids used in industrial processes, are cloudy, opaque and contain suspended matter, and are often referred to as “turbid.” The ability to use UVC to purify turbid liquids requires technology that passes limited amounts of liquid at high flow rates very close to the UVC light source so that microbes and other pathogens in the liquid are exposed most directly and intensely to UVC waves.

It is our goal to secure approval for our Technology during 2016 in those markets where approval is a precondition for the commercial implementation, as well as to continue to market and distribute our SurePure Photopurification Technology on a worldwide basis. After concluding research and successfully testing at various research institutions during the past several years, we are seeking approval from the FDA and EU Novel Food Clearance for use of the SurePure Photopurification Technology as an adjunct to and in certain cases as an alternative for, pasteurization in dairy applications and from the International Organisation of Vine and Wine for the purification of wine. We are simultaneously increasing the general awareness of our Technology through demonstrations at trade shows and exhibitions of our Technology to selected customers who are successfully running internal tests.

Based on research that we have sponsored, we believe that our SurePure Photopurification Technology improves beverage and liquid food quality and safety by safely disinfecting these products beyond existing technology, such as conventional pasteurization. Because our Technology does not require heat to be generated for purification to occur and therefore requires less energy to operate, we also believe that it enables processors of food, beverages and industrial liquids that use our Technology to reduce their operating expenditures. Our research also leads us to believe that our SurePure Photopurification Technology can be applied to virtually every consumable beverage, many industrial and processing liquids and any liquid pharmaceutical products that may suffer from microbiological contamination. Consequently, the markets that we serve can encompass all industries that manufacture or distribute consumable beverages, industries that use water or other liquids in industrial processes in the manufacturing or processing of foods and beverages and industries that produce liquids that must meet standards for high levels of purification.

Our Industry

Currently, conventional means for purifying dairy products, juices, wine, beer and other beverages are pasteurization and chemical. Pasteurization was developed in the nineteenth century and received widespread adoption in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Pasteurization operates by heating milk or other liquid to a specific temperature level (generally, 73° C or 164° F, although the exact temperature will vary according to need) and holding the temperature constant for a specified period of time, during which period pathogen cells are ruptured as a result of the heat transferred by the liquid. As a result of the heating process, pasteurization transforms components of the liquid, including taste and other sensory attributes, and does not remove the ruptured microbes from the fluid. In order to create sufficient heat to raise the temperature of the liquid to meet pasteurization standards, large amounts of energy must be consumed and CO₂emissions are created.

Another principal means for purifying liquids has been the addition of certain chemicals, such as sulfites and other preservatives. The addition of these elements often affects the taste and consistency of the liquid or food to be treated. Published research concludes that the additives used to achieve purification or preservation may lead to unhealthy or otherwise undesirable side effects among certain consumers.

Notwithstanding the general effectiveness of pasteurization and other means of purification, certain spore-forming bacteria, such as Bacillus, remain a serious concern in the food industry, since they can survive heat, chemicals, desiccation and radiation and can cause food poisoning and spoilage. Certain species of Bacillus, such as B. sporothermodurans, are heat resistant and can survive the process of pasteurization. We believe that the food and dairy industries are seeking alternative methods to render their products microbiologically safe for consumption against the widest possible range of microorganisms.

Our Technology

UVC occupies the light spectrum with wavelengths of 10 nanometers to 290 nanometers. UVC has been successfully used as a process for the disinfection of air, water and surfaces. In recent years, scientists have studied UVC irradiation technology as an alternative to heat (pasteurization) or chemically-based processes (preservatives) that currently are being used in the purification and/or sterilization or preservation of foods and liquids. Our Technology uses UVC waves to purify microbiologically sensitive turbid (cloudy or hazy fluids caused by individual particles (or suspended solids)) that are generally invisible to the naked eye by inactivating contaminating microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, moulds and viruses in treated liquids. The UV wavelength most effective for killing microorganisms is between 254 and 260 nanometers. Based on this, our Technology employs UVC radiation at the germicidal wavelength of 254 nanometers of sufficient energy and duration to inactivate contaminating pathogens, including viruses. On the basis of research that we have sponsored, we believe that since our Technology transfers energy directly to microbial DNA, it also limits secondary effects on liquid proteins, enzymes and other components and concomitantly minimizes effects on nutritional, sensory and marketing attributes of the product being purified.

UVC light can penetrate the outer cell membranes of microorganisms, such as viruses, bacteria, mold and mildew. Exposure to UVC causes the DNA molecules of the microorganisms to become fused, or mutated. The mutations further result in the death of the organisms as their metabolic functions such as replication cannot be completed after the mutation results. In addition to being safe, our process is non-thermal, chemical-free, fast and replicable.

Our Product

We provide our Technology, the Turbulator, to commercial clients for use in their plants. The Turbulator is a mechanical tube system within a double-walled stainless steel cylinder that creates turbulation in the fluid, moves the liquid to be purified in spiral flows over the source of the UVC at a specified distance from the source which maximizes the efficacy of the UVC waves, and ensures that all the liquid is exposed to the UVC source. Existing laminar flow systems, in which the liquid passes across a light source in sheets, do not allow for the sustained, controlled exposure that is necessary for effective purification, particularly for turbid liquids. The Turbulator system can be installed in parallel or series, resulting in a system that uses multiple lamps, with a modular approach enabling the treatment of a number of liquids requiring varying levels of exposure and flow rates. The proprietary design of the Turbulator is based on an internal lamp which is inserted into a quartz sleeve which in turn is placed inside a metal housing. Because of the proximity of the light source to the target liquid within the housing, there is a very high level of energy transfer to individual micro-organisms within the target liquid. The Turbulator system includes a data recording component which records quality assurance and other critical data relating to its operation.

We have designed the Turbulator system to maximize the range of liquids that our Technology can purify. The color and turbidity of the liquid being treated plays a role as UVC can only penetrate roughly 1 mm into juice and even less so into milk. The efficacy of the UVC is therefore dependent on the properties of the liquids being treated, including the color, viscosity, absorbance and presence of suspended solids. The Turbulator has been designed so that the necessary adjustments can be made to optimize its effectiveness in relation to the properties of the liquids being treated. Moreover, because of the design of the Turbulator and its components, our system can treat liquids where the use of heat as a purifying agent would be detrimental to the product. The Turbulator also allows the processor to set the precise exposure of a treated liquid to the UVC source, so that the exposure can match the exact purification requirements of the liquid.

The principal benefit of our SurePure Photopurification Technology is that it purifies liquids by inactivating pathogens without the use of heat energy. Because of the proprietary characteristics of the Turbulator system that control the flow of liquid over the UVC source, the Technology has been effective on all pathogens for which we have performed tests, including those that we believe are resistant to heat. In addition, we believe that our product has other benefits as well:

· Because our Turbulator systems do not rely on the generation of heat or other intense energy to perform purification, they consume substantially less power and therefore lead to less power-related expense, both in terms of power inputs and cooling needs; · Because our Turbulator systems require substantially less power than conventional means of heat-based purification, they substantially reduce the carbon footprint of the process; · Because the liquids that have been purified have not been subject to significant change in temperature, the quality of the end product remains intact; · For most liquids treated by our Technology, shelf life improves because we have inactivated the microbes and spores that result in spoilage; · Because our Turbulator systems are effective in destroying pathogens, the need to use preservatives in the liquid product that has been treated is substantially reduced; · Because our Turbulator systems effectively purify liquids used in industrial processes for washing and rinsing, among other purposes, those liquids can then be reused, which substantially reduces water consumption and the need to dispose of waste products; and · Because our Technology does not rely on heat, our Turbulator systems can possibly create new products in situations in which the application of heat has been a limiting factor in their purification.

Because our Turbulator systems require substantially less power than conventional means of heat-based purification, they substantially reduce the carbon footprint of the process;

Because the liquids that have been purified have not been subject to significant change in temperature, the quality of the end product remains intact;

For most liquids treated by our Technology, shelf life improves because we have inactivated the microbes and spores that result in spoilage;

Because our Turbulator systems are effective in destroying pathogens, the need to use preservatives in the liquid product that has been treated is substantially reduced;

Because our Turbulator systems effectively purify liquids used in industrial processes for washing and rinsing, among other purposes, those liquids can then be reused, which substantially reduces water consumption and the need to dispose of waste products; and

Because our Technology does not rely on heat, our Turbulator systems can possibly create new products in situations in which the application of heat has been a limiting factor in their purification.

More than ~~500~~2300 ~~Turbulator~~Turbulators ~~systems, including test systems,~~ have been installed since our inception in 2005 and either have been or are in operation or used in tests in the following locations: the United States, Europe, South America, Australia, India and South Africa. Each installed Turbulator ~~system~~ system is comprised of one or more Turbulators. We continue to evaluate the performance of our Turbulator systems. As we gain customer feedback, we incorporate it into the design of new Turbulator installations.

In certain geographic markets and for applications to certain liquids, we have not obtained or are not required to obtain governmental approvals for the sale or distribution of our Turbulator products. Accordingly, we or our distributors can market our Technology at the present time. In those markets and for those applications where governmental or similar approvals are required, our timelines for market entry are estimated to be between one and three years. See “—Regulation.” Rather, our principal task is to fund research by credible and competent third parties that will generate the scientific data that underpin our requests for clearance and that will convincingly demonstrate the efficacy, as well as what we believe to be the advantages of, our Technology. We believe that the aggregate cost of these reports will be approximately $100,000 during 2016.

We do not, and do not expect in the near term, to manufacture Turbulator systems through a facility of our own. Rather, we rely on third-party manufacturers to build our Turbulator components to our specifications and for our final assembly. Our limited financial resources impair our ability to contract with manufacturers, since, among other things, our manufacturers generally require full payment before product delivery and installation. Our current manufacturers are located in France and South Africa. Our products are generally delivered to our customers at their particular industrial sites where our own personnel, supported by our third-party manufacturers, install and test the systems, and then provide training to the customer. The materials used to manufacture and assemble Turbulator systems are commodities and, at the current time, are not in short supply. If any of our suppliers were unable to provide components, we believe that there are sufficient backup sources for components that would permit us to maintain our pricing intact.

Our Competitive Strengths

Based on our proprietary patented SurePurePhotopurification Technology, we are attempting to become an industry leader in the liquids purification and treatment industry, but we will be able to remain an industry participant only if we can secure equity financing. We believe our competitive strengths include the following:

Although UV light has long been used as a surface sterilizer and has been successfully applied to clear water, we have developed the first product that processes opaque or turbid liquids using UV light:

§ Our patented Turbulator design increases the liquid’s exposure to UVC, enabling greater efficacy and consistency in purification; § The turbulent flow of the liquid over the UVC source for an extended period at controlled distances from the source ensures a non-fouling, self-cleaning system; and § The multiple-lamp system used in the Turbulator system provides greater flexibility;

·§ The ~~Technology~~turbulent isflow anof ~~alternative~~the toliquid ~~comparable~~over ~~heat~~the -UVC orsource ~~chemical-based~~for ~~processes~~an ~~and~~extended ~~has~~period aat ~~greater~~controlled ~~microbiological~~distances ~~efficacy~~from ~~than~~the ~~conventional,~~source ~~laminar-flow~~ensures ~~UV systems in turbid liquid applications; and · The Turbulator uses~~ a ~~low maintenance,~~ non-fouling, ~~technology~~self-cleaning ~~that~~system; ~~offers significant process~~ and ~~energy savings.~~

The multiple-lamp system used in the Turbulator system provides greater flexibility;

The Technology is an alternative to comparable heat - or chemical-based processes and has a greater microbiological efficacy than conventional, laminar-flow UV systems in turbid liquid applications; and

The Turbulator uses a low maintenance, non-fouling technology that offers significant process and energy savings.

The principal commercial benefits of our Technology and the systems that incorporate it include:

· an effective alternative to pasteurization; · replacement of chemical and other preservatives; · significant savings of energy and water; · extended shelf life of treated products; · preservation of the taste, smell and look of the raw materials or finished products; and · delivery of replicable, predictable germicidal efficacy.

replacement of chemical and other preservatives;

significant savings of energy and water;

extended shelf life of treated products;

preservation of the taste, smell and look of the raw materials or finished products; and

delivery of replicable, predictable germicidal efficacy.

Notwithstanding the above advantages of our product, we nonetheless encounter and therefore must overcome serious challenges to further adoption and implementation of our Technology. As is the case with any business that seeks to replace an existing conventional modality, such as purification heat or preservatives, we have the burden of persuading customers and others of the superiority of the results that we produce and the value to our customers of the return on their investment in our technology. In applications, such as industrial application, where there is no regulatory involvement, we rely on various “cost/benefit” analyses to substantiate the case for acquiring and installing our system. In applications, such as dairy or foods, where there is regulatory involvement, we must demonstrate to the regulators that our Technology and its use of UVC either fits within the scope and application of existing rules and regulations, or, more often, we must persuade the regulators, by evidence they deem to be satisfactory, that they can amend or vary their regulations so that customers can employ our Technology. In many circumstances in which our technology is regulated, we prefer to present initially our Technology, as an adjunct to, and not as a replacement of, existing purification technologies. Although we believe that adjunct use will eventually lead to replacement, we do not yet have an established track record in this respect.

Sales

We have focused our sales efforts on “early adopter” global clients with multiple processing plants who have a substantial market share in their industries. Most of our sales activity takes place within our subsidiary SPO, as that company owns and administers all of our patents other than the South African patent. Most of our current sales arrangements are through SPO. During ~~2015~~2016, we generated approximately $21,~~500~~200,000 of revenues under aan ~~few~~ existing customer ~~agreements~~agreement.

During 2014, we sold our Turbid Fluid Photopurification Technology to a supplier of natural ingredients, a supplier of aromatherapy oils, a producer of liquid egg products and a producer of animal feeds.

During 2015, we also sold our Turbid Fluid Photopurification Technology to a producer of natural vegetable juices and an existing customer which supplies equipment to customers who produce milk for consumption by calves and other farm animals. We concluded the installation of an initial 360 Turbulator system for the producer of specialty animal feeds that placed an order during 2014, and during November 2015 we received an order for an additional 360 Turbulator unit from the same customer.

We rely predominately on direct sales, and also have distributors in certain limited international markets. To date, we have selected distributors by type of liquid and by geographic region. Currently, we are represented by approximately eight distributors, two of which are based in Africa. Putting into place a distribution network requires that we identify the appropriate players to serve the specific industries in which our end users operate, that we provide them with that equipment and training that enables them to both demonstrate and explain the advantages of our Technology and that we design our Turbulator systems so that they are a compelling offering that permits our distributors to effectively utilize their resources in placing our products. The customer sales cycle is long for any new technology and our distributors may face resistance as a result of the historical investment that customers have made in existing facilities. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors— Risks Relating to our Business, Financial Condition and Corporate Structure—We do not have an expansive or well developed distribution network.”

We must raise sufficient working capital to support any distribution network that we establish. For example, we believe that each distributor will require at least $50,000 of equipment on hand for demonstration and similar purposes. In addition, our distribution network will require sales support. Optimally, we would provide the support of a microbiologist/biochemist and an expert in the design and construction of engineered processes to our distributors to assist them in their sales efforts. In addition, we will require working capital to pay the general and administrative costs relating to in-house staff additions such as sales trainers and regulatory experts.

As of December, ~~2015~~2016, we have one existing customer license agreement which generates a non-material amount of revenue. Under that agreement we have licensed a Turbulator system to a U.S.-based manufacturer of equipment used to sterilize milk and milk components used in the feeding of calves with farm milk. The license expires in April 2018. ~~We have a contract with a customer for the delivery of a unit containing 360 Turbulators during the first half of 2016.~~ Our ability to deliver and install equipment is ~~dependent~~ dependent on financing the manufacturing and delivery of the equipment, either by the customer, internal working capital or a combination of both.

We are currently in discussions with a number of prospective customers, but cannot predict whether we will be able to enter into revenue-generating contracts with customers during 2016. Our sales cycle is long and often requires both the customer’s evaluation of our technology and negotiations with multiple levels and groups within a customer. Therefore, we cannot be certain of the timing of these contracts and the amount of revenues to be generated either on a period-by-period basis or over the life of the contract. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors— Risks Relating to our Business, Financial Condition and Corporate Structure—We face significant obstacles to the commercialization of SurePure Photopurification Technology and our Turbulator systems.”

Marketing

We have primarily utilized public relations, trade shows and customer trials to convert awareness into interest and purchase. Because our financial resources are extremely limited, however, we will not be able to utilize any of these methods unless we receive increased funding.

Our ~~current working~~ strategy is to locate markets and market participants who require effective means for purifying liquids. ~~Since inception~~In the past, we have focused on producers of milk and other dairy products, fruit juices, wine and sugar syrups in the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, South Africa and India. In each case, we ~~seek~~sought to approach the strongest market participants and explain the advantages of our Technology as an adjunct to or as a replacement of existing conventional processes. To the extent that permitted uses of our Technology isare subject to regulation that limits, restricts or prohibits the use of UVC as a means of purification of a specific liquid or food, we work with the customer in various tests to support an application to amend or replace the applicable regulation.

Our technology was developed in South Africa. Since our management team is familiar with the dairy, fruit juice and wine industries in South Africa, we initially focused on the South African market. During the last six years, however, we have ~~been~~worked ~~working~~ with ~~customers~~ customers in the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union, as well as Australia, New Zealand, South America and Canada. We also continue to explore emerging economies, such as India. During 2015 our Indian distributor conducted trials of our equipment at various small scale farmer dairies and is planning broader trials during 2016.

Regulatory Matters

The application of of our SurePure Photopurification Technology to purify or disinfect milk, other dairy products and wine generally requires that we take various steps to obtain regulatory clearances in each of the jurisdictions in which we plan to market our Technology. The compliance measures that we are required to take differ based on whether we are seeking to have the Technology sold as an adjunct to pasteurization or as an alternative to pasteurization, the latter having a higher standard for clearance. Other uses of our Technology—industrial uses, for example—do not require compliance with regulations governing food or dairy products. Having obtained regulatory clearance in the European Union in January 2016, ~~now~~ we are now pursuing compliance efforts principally in the United States of America and the Republic of South Africa, ~~but our efforts~~ in ~~this~~conjunction ~~respect~~with ~~may~~commercial ~~be impaired by our inability to pay our consultants who are providing some or all of these efforts~~partners.

United States of America

In 2001, the FDA amended its regulations to permit the use of UVC to purify water and certain fruit juices, as long as certain performance characteristics are complied with. With regard to milk and other dairy products in the USA, we plan to market our Technology first as an adjunct to pasteurization. Specifically, we are applying to treat raw milk, which is milk prior to any pasteurization or any other similar process. Although we have not committed to doing so, we plan to pursue clearance from the FDA as an alternative to thermal pasteurization in the future. The timeline for this process may be as long as four to six years and will likely require that we devote additional resources to fund the necessary testing.

The FDA classifies the use of UVC to treat milk or other food as a food additive, the use of which must be expressly permitted. The current FDA regulation that permits the use of ultraviolet radiation for the processing and treatment of food does not include the use of UV light as a means of purification of dairy products, although it does permit the use of UV light in treating potable water and juice products, as well as high fat-content food. In June 2012, in compliance with the FDA’s procedures, we submitted a draft application to amend the FDA’s food radiation regulation to permit use of UV light. We filed a draft of our petition to amend the regulation to the Office of Food Additive Safety (“OFAS”) of the FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (“CFSAN”). In August 2012, CFSAN confirmed our view that an amendment of the FDA’s food radiation regulation would be required and noted certain deficiencies in our draft petition for the use of our Technology in the pasteurization of milk. When we have successfully completed tests that generate the necessary data, we intend to submit those data and studies to address directly CFSAN’s comments in an effort to establish the safety of our treatment process. Once OFAS receives our formal petition, it must act within 15 days to determine whether it is suitable for filing, in which case we are so notified and OFAS publishes a notice to that effect in the Federal Register. At that time, OFAS also determines whether there is any need for review by agencies in addition to CFSAN, and formal review by OFAS commences. If all required safety information has been included in our petition, the scientific review should be completed within approximately six months. The wording of our suggested amendment to the food radiation regulation also undergoes a review for approximately six months, at which point OFAS drafts a final rule, which we will then review. When OFAS has completed its full consideration of our petition, and if that review is positive, the FDA will publish a final rule in the Federal Register. We understand that the timeframe for publication is two to three months and that the average length of time between submission of a final petition and publication of the rule is 24 months. In conjunction with commercial partners, we are working with consultants that we have engaged to pursue an application for Generally Recognized as Safe “GRAS” status as the initial step towards obtaining approval for our SurePure Photopurification Technology to be sold as an adjunct to pasteurization or as an alternative to pasteurization, the latter having a higher standard for clearance.

In addition, the U.S. Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, which prohibits the manufacture or sale of misbranded foods, provides that any food that purports to be or is represented as pasteurized must have been subjected to a safe process or treatment that meets certain standards. We must satisfy these standards to the satisfaction of the FDA if our purification process does not satisfy the applicable FDA regulations. The submissions that we have made to date to the FDA related to dairy products have not produced a determination that our Technology satisfies its standards.

As noted earlier, the FDA has approved the use of ~~Ultra~~UVC ~~Violet~~light ~~Purification~~ as a means of treating fruit juices. Our Turbid ~~Fluid~~ Fluid Photopurification Technology satisfies the requirements of this approval.

We also are required to obtain FDA approval for the use of our Technology for wines or other alcoholic beverages before the Alcohol & Tobacco Tax & Trade Bureau will make any determinations with respect to the application of our Technology to purify those products.

The Company has had a commercial relationship with Tamarac Biotics of Fresno, California (“Tamarack”). Tamarack’s proposes to develop dairy products that retain the immune active proteins and other thermally sensitive compounds that are found in raw milk. Tamarack Biotics has utilized our SurePure Photopurification Technology for non-thermal pathogen reduction and also low temperature drying technologies that fully dry milk and milk concentrates into stable powders at temperatures not exceeding a cow's normal body temperature. Using equipment provided by the Company, Tamarack has developed the product known as TruActive NF. During the first quarter of 2017, Tamarack received a certification from an authorized expert classifying Tamarack’s product as “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) when used as a food ingredient at specified levels for the purposes specified by Tamarack. GRAS is an FDA designation that a chemical or substance added to food is considered safe by experts, and so is exempted from the usual food additive tolerance requirements. The Company expects to recieve an order for equipment from Tamarack during the second quarter of 2017.

European Union

In the European Union, before our Technology can be used commercially with respect to foods, food ingredients and beverages, it must receive clearance under Regulation (EC) No. 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 1997 Concerning Novel Foods and Novel Food Ingredients. A customer of ours that is a member company of the EU dairy industry submitted an application to the European Food Standards Agency (“EFSA”) on September ~~122012~~12, 2012. In its application, our customer claimed that its use of our Technology significantly increases the levels of Vitamin D in milk and extends the shelf life of dairy foods. On January 11, 2016 EFSA published an opinion stating that cow’s milk treated by our Technology after pasteurization in is safe under the intended conditions of use and finding that treatment by our Technology results in no other significant differences in nutrient content, EFSA’s opinion stated that the use of the technology does not give rise either to safety concerns or to concerns about microbiological quality. The opinion affirmatively stated that “UV-treated milk is comparable to non-UV-treated milk,” except for the ~~significant~~ significant increase in the vitamin D3 content, and that no adverse effects are expected from UV-treated milk in substitution ~~for~~ for other milk that has been pasteurized.

Republic of South Africa

In South Africa, we are engaged in a process to draft or amend a series of regulations of the Ministry of Health that apply to various foods and foodstuffs. In May 2012 we filed an application to amend certain regulations relating to Milk and Dairy Products GN R1555 of 21 November 1998 applicable to milk and dairy products, wine, fruit juice and other microbiologically sensitive liquids to permit our Product to be used as an alternative to pasteurization. In the case of certain regulations, draft regulations have been published for comment in the government’s official publication. In other cases, publication of the regulations may not occur until we have responded to requests for further information from the government’s Directorate: Food Control, including information that relates to the disposition of applications that we have submitted in the US and the EU. The Directorate of Food Control, Department of Health is not prepared to make an application to the Minister of Health to amend the regulation until such time that we have received either FDA or Novel Food Approval. In addition, the Directorate has advised us that the Agricultural Products Standards Act will have to be amended to conform with any amendments to South Africa’s regulations relating to milk and dairy products. The Directorate has further advised that, due to constraints in its human resource capacity, it has requested the Dairy Standards Agency of South Africa to assist. The Dairy Standards Agency undertook a scientific review of our Technology and other similar technologies during late 2014. During late 2015, South Africa’s Department of Health endorsed ongoing studies of the use of SurePure’s ultra-violet photopurification as an alternative to pasteurization for the treatment to raw milk to make it safe for human consumption. If successful, the program will allow South Africa’s farmers to use the SurePure Photopurification Technology as an alternative processing method to purify, bottle and sell their raw milk. These studies are currently underway in conjunction with commercial partners.

Competition

Generally, we compete with a number of engineered services businesses who design and, in some cases, install purification systems for beverages, dairies, wineries and other manufacturers or processors of beverages. We also compete with those businesses that manufacture the systems that are used to pasteurize or otherwise purify beverages and other liquids. Both the service providers and manufacturers with which we compete generally are private companies, although a number are associated with large international conglomerates.

We believe that the principal competitive factors in our industry that create barriers to entry include, but are not limited to, reliability, effectiveness of technology to achieve requisite levels of purification, reputation, availability of resources and regulatory compliance for certain applications. Our limited financial resources and lack of a clear financial future may also be factors that make it difficult for us to compete in this marketplace.

We believe that any current thermal or chemical preservative process for liquids is a direct competitor to our business. Other developing processes, such as ultrasound, high-pressure or sterile filtration, are also a source of competitive threat.

Our strategy for dealing with our competition is to gain commercial acceptance of our Technology by pursuing those applications, such as dairy, that have rigorous regulatory standards that must be met, and at the same time work with large international businesses to receive their backing for our Technology. We also focus our efforts to gain acceptance in emerging growth economies where we believe that our Technology has competitive advantages, such as requiring the use of less power than other means of purification and where there are a large number of “Greenfield” installations for our Technology.

Intellectual Property

Our patented Turbid Fluid Photopurification Technology is protected by patents which have been granted in 66 countries, including South Africa, United States, China, Japan, Australia and the countries of the European Union. A predecessor entity to SPHSA applied for our patents in October 2000. Each of the patents is based on the same international patent application and relates to the same invention. The patents will expire beginning on October 12, 2020. Our United States patent was granted on July 12, 2005 and will expire on October 12, 2020. If we do not have adequate funds, we may not be able to make the required payments to maintain our patents in all countries in which they have been issued.

The applications for these patents were examined independently by each of the patent offices where patent applications were filed, and each of the examiners in the various countries conducted an independent international novelty search for related published technology and then assessed whether or not the invention was new and inventive and thus qualified for a patent. Each examiner decided independently at the end of his examination that a patent should be granted. Accordingly, we believe that it is unlikely that a third party could successfully challenge the validity of any of our patents, and we further believe that our patents are enforceable with respect to the claims that they describe. The costs of enforcing a patent against an alleged infringer vary significantly from the relatively minor cost of sending a simple cease-and-desist letter which could result in cessation of the infringement, to the significant cost of bringing and maintaining a full patent infringement action. We believe that a third party may be infringing our Brazilian patent right and using our trade secrets in Brazil and that another third party may be infringing our patent rights in the United Kingdom. We have engaged counsel to advise us of our rights in this matter and whether we have an effective remedy available to us. \See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We rely heavily upon our patents and other intellectual property.”

We plan to continue to develop our Technology with a view to applying for further patents.

We also own the registered trademark “SurePure” and “Turbulator” in various formats in the United States, South Africa, Switzerland and the EU.

Research

We have contracted for and funded research efforts regarding the use of UVC as employed by our SurePure Photopurification Technology in the purification of liquids generally, and foods and beverages in particular, at academic institutions throughout the world. Generally, we have commissioned research in areas such as flow dynamics, biochemistry and microbiology. We, and in one or two cases, our customers, have provided funding for the studies, which generally covered both direct costs as well as overhead, and we also have provided our equipment to the institutions. In certain cases, we have provided annual grants to academic institutions to study the effects of UVC energy on foods and beverages. The academic institutions that we contracted to perform studies of our Technology or that received grants from us include:

Ø University of Wisconsin – Madison, Wisconsin, United States of America Ø Cornell University – Ithaca, New York, United States of America Ø Queens College – Belfast, Northern Ireland Ø Illinois Institute of Technology, Illinois, United States of America Ø Campdens BRI – Gloucestershire, United Kingdom Ø University of Birmingham – Birmingham, United Kingdom

By way of example, results of studies conducted at these institutions include the following:

o A 2008 published study that concluded that UVC radiation was successful in reducing bacterial counts in raw bovine milk, as well as apple juice, guava juice, pineapple juice and orange juice, while preserving the nutrients of the beverages being treated. o A 2010 unpublished study of the use of our Technology to produce grape juice and wine that is free of microorganisms that found that using the UVC treatment on grape juice and wine samples in five different wineries could provide wine significantly free of microorganisms (i.e., to the extent of less than 1 colony-forming unit per milliliter). o A 2011 published study that explains the effects of UVC radiation on microorganisms found in grape juice and wine products which found that our Technology “clearly indicated significant germicidal effect against the wine specific microorganisms; therefore, UVC radiation may stabilize grape juice and wine microbiologically in conjunction with reduced sodium dioxide levels” and that UVC radiation effectively inactivates wine-associated microorganisms such as Brettanomyces, Saccharomyces, Acetobacter, Lactrobacillus, Pediococcus and Oenococcus. o A 2011 published study that investigated the efficacy of UVC radiation technology to inactivate microorganisms in milk and concluded that UVC treatments produced microbial reductions similar to traditional heat pasteurization. The study also noted that UVC has the advantage of not producing chemical residues, by-products or radiation; is a cold process requiring very low maintenance at low cost; and does not require energy to produce heat. o A 2011 unpublished study currently under peer review that investigated whether UVC treatment could reduce the number of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris cells in water, fruit concentrate and grape concentrate and found that our Technology is a viable way to control contamination of juice concentrate by species of that bacterium. o A 2012 published study that examined the use of UVC light to inactivate microorganisms that found a 100% improvement in predicted microbial elimination due to the novel swirl design of our Turbulator. o A 2015 published study on the sapplication of ultraviolet technology to inactivate porcine parvovirus in liquid plasma. This study discusses the use of spray-dried porcine plasma and the benefit of UV photopurification in its production.

A 2010 unpublished study of the use of our Technology to produce grape juice and wine that is free of microorganisms that found that using the UVC treatment on grape juice and wine samples in five different wineries could provide wine significantly free of microorganisms (i.e., to the extent of less than 1 colony-forming unit per milliliter).

A 2011 published study that explains the effects of UVC radiation on microorganisms found in grape juice and wine products which found that our Technology “clearly indicated significant germicidal effect against the wine specific microorganisms; therefore, UVC radiation may stabilize grape juice and wine microbiologically in conjunction with reduced sodium dioxide levels” and that UVC radiation effectively inactivates wine-associated microorganisms such as Brettanomyces, Saccharomyces, Acetobacter, Lactrobacillus, Pediococcus and Oenococcus.

A 2015 published study on the sapplication of ultraviolet technology to inactivate porcine parvovirus in liquid plasma. This study discusses the use of spray-dried porcine plasma and the benefit of UV photopurification in its production.

We believe that these studies were undertaken by qualified scientists who were employed by academic institutions with experience in the areas of scientific endeavor that relates to our Technology. We also believe that these scientists performed their research in accordance with the ethical and scientific guidelines of their respective universities. Prior to being published, the results were reviewed by scientific peers and presented by journals with international following. Accordingly, we believe that we and others can rely on these studies as proof of the efficacy of our Technology as presented in the studies. We have presented these studies to regulators as evidence of the efficacy of our Technology.

In addition to evaluating the results of our Technology as a means of purification, these studies also provided information with respect to certain critical process parameters, such as optimal dosage and flow rates. We plan to commission additional studies to gather additional information on these topics as well as certain toxicological and chemical safety studies. The methods to be used for our studies must comply with various regulatory standards. Any academic institutions with whom we might deal are likely to require that we fund these studies, and, accordingly, we will require additional financing so that we are able to pay all of the expenses and overhead costs that we are required to pay.

Employees

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we employed 6 people directly~~, 3 of whom are based at our office near Cape Town, South Africa~~. We continue to utilize the services of key academic and professional consultants in the areas of microbiology, biochemistry process engineering and manufacturing to enable us to grow the business and service our customer base on a global basis.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our operations and securities are subject to a number of risks. Below we have identified and discussed the material risks that we are likely to face. Should any of the following risks occur, they may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations as well as the future trading price and/or the value of our securities.

Risks Relating to our Business, Financial Condition and Corporate Structure

We have a history of significant operating losses for the past eight years and these losses may continue in the future.

We have incurred net losses of approximately $3536,~~022~~509,000 for the period from inception through December 31, ~~2015~~2016. We have been without significant revenue since inception, and our current agreements provide relatively limited amounts of revenue. Our historical losses are expected to continue into the future unless we are able to generate significant amounts of revenue in our business. Our history of significant operating losses prior to ~~2015~~2016 has also made it difficult for us to raise additional working capital.

We require immediate capital to fund our operations and repay certain obligations, and we may not be able to obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our operations or to liquidate our business.

We have significant working capital needs, including approximately$120,000 of US tax penalties and $~~262~~346,000 of foreign payroll taxes and social security liabilities. Our management team has worked without receiving cash compensation for as long as ~~three~~four years and the total accrued compensation and related expense reimbursements owed to them was approximately $~~233~~42,500 as of December 31, ~~2015~~2016. Because we do not have sufficient working capital, we continue to accrue compensation and fees owed to them. During the ~~2015~~2016, we issued 85,~~870~~970,000 shares of our Common Stock to members of our management team in exchange for their discharging the Company and its subsidiaries from claims for accrued and unpaid compensation aggregating approximately $1920,~~393,~~000.

~~Additionally~~We ~~during~~have ~~2015~~other wecurrent ~~and~~liabilities, Mnet ~~Cubed~~of ~~Holdings~~customer ~~Limited~~deposits, ~~a corporation formed under the laws~~ of ~~South~~approximately ~~Africa (“MCubed”)~~$880,000. ~~entered~~If ~~into~~we ~~the~~are ~~Share~~unable ~~Purchase~~to ~~Agreement, under~~secure ~~which~~adequate ~~MCubed~~financing ~~agreed~~on toreasonable ~~purchase 1~~terms,~~676,000~~ ~~shares~~or ofon ~~our~~any ~~Common~~terms, we ~~Stock~~may innot ~~exchange~~be ~~for~~able ~~the~~to ~~cancellation~~pay inthese ~~full~~or ofother ~~loan~~operating ~~indebtedness of~~expenses ~~ZAR 3,542,204, including interest~~ and ~~loan~~to ~~fees,~~continue ~~due~~to ~~from~~operate our ~~subsidiary,~~business. ~~SurePure~~There ~~Marketing~~is ~~South~~no ~~Africa~~assurance ~~Pty Ltd (“SPMSA”).~~that ~~SPMSA~~financing ~~and~~will ~~MCubed~~be ~~had~~available ~~entered~~to ~~into~~us, ~~the~~in ~~loan agreement under~~ which ~~MCubed~~case ~~loaned~~we ~~ZAR~~may ~~2,000,000~~be compelled to ~~SPMSA~~wind ondown ~~April~~or ~~17,~~liquidate ~~2013~~our business.

We have other current liabilities, net of customer deposits, of approximately $1,125,000. If we are unable to secure adequate financing on reasonable terms, or on any terms, we may not be able to pay these or other operating expenses and to continue to operate our business. There is no assurance that financing will be available to us, in which case we may be compelled to wind down or liquidate our business.

Even if we do find a source of capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the capital that are acceptable to us or our shareholders. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to the units. We cannot provide any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.

We are at Risk of Having all of our Patents Seized by a Foreign Tax Authority

During the fourth quarter of 2016, we reported that we had received a notice from the Debt Enforcement Authority Zug (the “Authority”) on behalf of the Canton of Zug, Switzerland, relating to a possible seizure of the assets of its SPOAG subsidiary, which include all of our international patents other than our South African patent. The basis for the notice of seizure was SPOAG’s failure to pay payroll taxes and social security obligations owing to the Canton of Zug in the approximate amount CHF100,000. Within the next two weeks, we were advised by Swiss counsel that the Authority had agreed to a revised payment schedule for the payment of the overdue payroll taxes due by SPOAG with payments to be made between then and December 31, 2016. Further, during December 2016 SPOAG was required to submit a proposal for payment of the remaining amount that is due and payable to the Authority, which, as of December 31, 2016, is approximately CHF256,000. We submitted a plan for payment, but we were not able to make any of the payments to which we committed. As a result, the Authority rejected the plan. Until we are able to make a payment that is satisfactory to the Authority, we remain at risk of having all of the assets of SPOAG, including the patents, seized.

We Have Defaulted on a Convertible Note.

On February 11, 2016 we issued to SBI Investments LLC, 2014-1, a statutory series of Delaware limited liability company (“SBI”), our promissory note (the “SBI Note”) in the principal amount of $330,000 which subsequently was increased to $390,000. On August 1, 2016 the Company and SBI agreed to extend the maturity date of the SBI Note from August 9, 2016 to October 11, 2016, which was subsequently extended to January 11, 2017. The conversion price under the SBI Note is 52.5% of the market price of our shares of Common Stock. We did not pay the SBI Note when it came due on January 11, 2017. On March 29, 2017, SBI advised us that it was beginning to convert the SBI Note with an initial conversion of $25,000 resulting in the issuance of 691,467 shares of our Common Stock. We have not been able to make any payments on the SBI Note and, as a result, SBI can exercise its right to convert the SBI Note in accordance with its terms as well as any other remedies available thereunder. As of the date of the filing of this annual report, the Company does not have access to funds to pay all or any part of the SBI Note.

Even if we obtain capital to fund our operations, the capital may not be sufficient to fund our strategies on which the potential growth of our business is premised.

Even if we raise capital to fund our day-to-day operations, that capital may not be sufficient to enable us to execute the strategies that we have formulated for our growth. In connection with our growth strategies, we will likely experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competitors; (iii) the level of our investment in research development; and (iv) our need to obtain certain regulatory approvals. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.

Our efforts to raise capital, if successful, will subject us to ongoing costs and expenses.

Each of our efforts to raise working capital, when successful, has required that we enter into obligations to register for resale with the Commission the securities purchased by our investors. Because our trading price is low, the aggregate market value of the shares of our Common Stock held by shareholders other than our affiliates is less than $75,000,000 and, accordingly, we are not able to take advantage of those forms and procedures of the Commission that allow us to incorporate by reference filings that we have made. As a result, our registration process is more expensive and time-consuming than it may be for other companies that can register their shares more efficiently.

Since September 2014 we have not ~~been~~ been able to raise signficant equity capital from any investors, including our existing shareholders. We cannot predict whether we will be able to fund our business.

Although certain of our shareholders had funded us by purchasing equity prior to September, 2014, since that date no investor and no shareholder has purchased any of our equity. As a result, we have funded our operations from commercial revenues or by deferral of operating costs, such as the salaries of our management ~~teat~~team and other employees. Although we regularly engage our shareholders in discussions with respect to funding, we have not secured any financing nor is there any indication that this result will change. As a result, we may be forced to suspend operations due to lack of operating funds.

We continue to discuss and negotiate possible financing transactions with our shareholders, but on the basis on our experience in 2015 we believe that we are unlikely to be able to conclude financing transactions with them.

We do not currently have any independent directors on our Board.

As of March 27, 2013, we ceased to have any independent directors. As of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, we have two members of our board and they both are members of management. Until an independent director becomes a member of our board, all board decisions will be made by these two members. Because we do not have an independent director, our board of directors has no nominating or compensation committees and our audit committee has no members. In addition, without independent directors, the Company does not have any independent oversight or administration of its management and operations. The Company’s decision-making may suffer from the lack of independent directors, since only officers and employees of the Company will make all important decisions regarding the Company. For example, our executive officers, who are also stockholders and directors, could establish policies and enter into transactions without independent review and approval thereof. This could present the potential for a conflict of interest between the Company and its shareholders generally and the controlling officers or directors.

Our success is dependent on our ability to commercialize our SurePure Photopurification Technology and our Turbulator photopurification systems to generate sufficient revenues to sustain and expand our operations.

The execution of our business plan in the near-term is wholly dependent on our ability to commercialize our Technology through the use of our Turbulator line of photopurification systems to produce sufficient revenues to cover our operating expenses. The success of these endeavors will require that sufficient funding is available to us to finance the manufacture, marketing and sale of our current Turbulator systems and the development of new photopurification products and applications for those systems. Should we be unable to improve our financial condition through debt or equity offerings, our ability to successfully advance our business plan will be severely limited and we could be forced to discontinue or liquidate our business. Were this to occur, our shareholders would not be likely to receive any significant return, or any return at all, on their investment.

We face significant obstacles to the commercialization of SurePure Photopurification Technology and our Turbulator systems.

The industries in which we intend to commercialize our Technology are characterized by existing processes and technologies that have been used for very long periods, such as pasteurization, filtration and chemical and other preservatives. It is difficult for us as a business with limited resources to displace these existing processes and technologies and to gain acceptance even as an adjunct to the existing processes. In the case of businesses with existing facilities, a change to our Technology may require the abandonment in whole or in part of existing facilities which have been in place for an extended period of time. In the case of businesses about to build or invest in new facilities, we face the challenge of marketing a newer and often lesser-known technology.

In addition, the principal industries that we have targeted—dairy products, juice products, beer, wine and food—are regulated by government agencies or subject to standards promulgated by industry bodies. These agencies and bodies operate under and enforce regulations which often do not permit UVC purification without change in applicable legislation or regulations or both or classify UVC purification as a food additive. As a result, we are not permitted to address the dairy industry in major markets, such as the United States of America or South Africa, until the restrictive regulations have been changed to permit the use of our Technology or until our Technology has been approved for use in the dairy industry, as it was approved in the European Union in early 2016. The processes that we have undertaken in our attempts to change legislation and other regulation are often prolonged and difficult. See “Item 1. Business—Regulatory Matters.”

In order to address these challenges, we seek to create awareness of the advantages of our Turbulator systems among businesses that have purification requirements in their processes. We also plan to continue our efforts to obtain regulatory and similar approvals where required. At the same time, we plan to keep pace with outside technological developments, to respond to technological developments and to seek out additional industries whose liquid purification needs are not being met adequately or at all. In order to pursue these strategies, we believe we will be required to expend significant amounts to hire or engage and manage those persons with the networks, skills, experience and resources to execute these plans. We believe we must also continue to fund independent research at qualified academic and similar institutions to investigate fully the scientific basis of our Technology. The financial and other resources that we currently have available are not adequate for all of these purposes, and we will require significant additions to enable us to execute these plans. If we are not able to secure additional funding, we may not be able to address these challenges adequately or at all and therefore could be forced to discontinue our business. Were this to occur, our shareholders would not likely receive any significant return, or any return at all, on their investment.

Our SurePure Photopurification Technology may become obsolete.

The ability of UVC to destroy microbes and other pathogens has been known for several years. We believe the principal advantage of our Turbulator systems is that they purify turbid liquids in a more efficient and effective manner as compared to conventional processes. There is no assurance, however, that another business will not discover and commercialize a system that would use UVC or some other energy source in a manner more efficient and/or effective than our Turbulator systems, in which case our Technology might be rendered obsolete. Were this obsolescence to occur, we could encounter significant difficulty in selling or otherwise deploying our systems and could be forced to write off the value of our investment in our Technology. In addition, if we were not able to deploy technology or systems that met the challenge of these developments, we could be forced to discontinue our business. Were this to occur, our shareholders would not likely receive any significant return, or any return at all, on their investment.

We compete with established purification processes with wide market acceptance and installed bases.

Since we acquired the SurePure Photopurification Technology in 2005, we have faced considerable difficulty entering the marketplace. Although we believe that our Technology has considerable advantages over conventional modalities, businesses in the market have made considerable fixed cost investments in the installation of the conventional processes, and the replacement of their installed technology with our Technology would entail added costs in the short-term. The success of our business is likely to depend principally upon our ability to convincingly demonstrate the longer-term technical and cost advantages of our Turbulator systems and secure a reliable base of customers who are willing to install our Technology together with or in replacement of the existing purification technologies. It is possible that, despite our ability to prove our effectiveness and our cost efficiencies across a range of industries, our customers will, because of their reluctance to adopt a new technology, prefer to fully amortize their investment in existing purification systems or, because of simple inertia, remain unwilling to purchase our Turbulator systems or otherwise acquire our Technology.

At the same time, many of the businesses that sell and install the existing processes with which our Technology competes have considerable resources and sophisticated marketing plans and operating distribution networks. These factors have made and may continue to make it difficult for us to compete with these businesses. In addition, many of our potential customers engage and rely on industrial engineering firms to recommend and select purification systems for their facilities. The fact that we are a relatively new business with a newly developed technology and with very limited resources may make it difficult for these engineering firms to recommend our Technology over the existing processes.

In addition, competitors could develop technologies or systems similar to or better than our own, finish development of new technologies in advance of us, or be more successful at marketing new products, any of which factors may hurt our prospects for success.

If we are not able to deal effectively with these competitive factors either directly or by focusing on geographic or industrial markets where these competitive factors are less intense, we may not be able to generate revenues for our business. As a result, without revenues, we may be forced to discontinue or sell our business. Were this to occur, our shareholders would not likely receive any significant return, or any return at all, on their investment.

General economic conditions will affect our operations.

Changes in general domestic and international economic conditions may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors that may contribute to a change in economic conditions include slow or non-existent GDP growth or recession in developed and/or emerging market economies, volatility, uncertainty or actual or potential downturns in banking and/or financial markets, fluctuations in interest rates, availability of credit, inflation rates or currency exchange rates, labor disputes and political and social unrest or reform. Further, the delayed recovery of the global economy is not conducive to growth, particularly of technology companies with newly commercialized products. Any adverse development in economic conditions, whether in banking or financial markets, or in levels of economic activity generally, could increase our expenses and make it more difficult for us to market and commercialize our Technology.

To date, certain of our marketing efforts had been in markets in emerging economies, which economies may exhibit less stability and predictability than developed economies.

Since we acquired our Technology, we devoted resources to marketing it in South Africa and other emerging economies. We believe that emerging economies tend to offer certain opportunities, such as growing consumer populations, which may lead to the construction of new breweries, dairies and other food and beverage processing facilities. We also believe that it may be easier for the owner or operator of a facility that is about to be built to adopt our Technology than for the owner or operator of an existing facility which already has a purification system installed. Doing business in emerging economies, however, is subject to substantial risks. Among other things, economic conditions in those countries may be volatile. The role of governmental agencies and other regulators may be subject to change without advance notice or without any notice. The plans of our current and potential customers to construct or complete the planned construction of their facilities therefore may change. In addition, perception of risk in any one particular emerging market country or region can heighten the perception of risk in emerging market countries in general, whether among banking or financial markets or otherwise. As a result, the investment that we have made with respect to the projects may not have the return that we anticipated or any return at all.

We do not have an expansive or well-developed distribution network.

To date, we have relied on distributors to sell our Technology on a country-by-country or region-by-region basis without putting into place a coordinated international distribution network. We believe that the establishment and maintenance of an effective worldwide distribution network will require a substantial amount of financing which has not yet been available to us. The lack of an effective worldwide distribution network may place us at a competitive disadvantage to other providers of liquid purification technologies. If we are not able to secure adequate equity or debt financing in the future, we may not be able to create channels of distribution for our systems, and, as a result, our revenues may not increase.

We rely on third parties to manufacture our Turbulator systems and do not have our own manufacturing facilities.

Although our own employees design, assemble and install our Turbulator systems in conjunction with our distributors and customers, we have contracted the manufacturing of the components of our Turbulator systems to third parties. As a result, we do not directly control these components and are subject to risks, including late or non-delivery, defective manufacture by third parties, breakage in transit and insufficient supply. Any of these problems, as well as other problems deriving from outsourced manufacture of components, could lead us to default on our obligations to our customers, which could have adverse financial consequences for us and as well as adverse consequences for our business reputation.

We rely heavily upon our patent and other intellectual property.

We rely on a combination of the counterparts of our issued patent, trade secrets and licenses, and, to a lesser extent, trademarks, together with non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements, to establish and protect proprietary rights to our Technology. See “Item 1. Business—Intellectual Property.” Our success depends, in part, on our ability to obtain additional United States and foreign patent protection for our products, their uses and our processes to preserve our trade secrets and to maintain the patents that we hold. We do not know whether any of the claims in our issued patents or pending applications will provide us with any significant protection against competitive products or otherwise be commercially valuable. Legal standards regarding the validity of patents and the proper scope of their claims are still evolving, and there is no consistent law or policy regarding the valid breadth of claims. Additionally, there may be third-party patents, patent applications and other intellectual property relevant to our products and technology which are not known to us and that block or compete with our products. Since we do business in emerging economies where legal means for effectively addressing infringement of our patent may not be available, we may not be able to prevent infringement or to obtain judicial relief when infringement occurs.

Our limited financial resources impede our ability to assert our patents against infringers and to obtain additional patents. Accordingly, we may not be able to exercise our rights to their full extent. As a result, infringement may have a material and adverse affect on our ability of our SurePure Technology to compete.

We may not be able to effectively manage our growth.

Over the longer term we will seek to achieve considerable future growth in our business. This growth may come from the market acceptance of our Technology, increased licensing and commercialization of our Turbulator systems and expanding applications and markets for our Technology. To achieve growth in an efficient and timely manner, we will have to maintain strict controls over our internal management, technical, accounting, marketing, and research and development functions in all of our companies, both in the United States and elsewhere. We believe that we will continue to employ sufficient quality personnel to manage our anticipated future growth. Should we be unable to successfully manage our anticipated future growth by employing or otherwise engaging personnel and professionals who will maintain these standards, our costs may increase, our growth could be impaired and our ability to operate in existing and new marketplaces may be impaired.

Failure to receive regulatory approval and other governmental action may adversely affect our business.

We have developed our SurePure Photopurification Technology such that it can be used by industries without being subject to prior regulatory approval as well as in those industries where regulatory approval is required. Should our Technology not receive regulatory approval, the applications of our Technology will become limited to those industries where regulatory approval is not required, and our business and financial results would thereby be seriously harmed.

In those markets and industries in which regulatory approval is required, the approval process is frequently long, unpredictable and costly. See “Item 1. Business—Regulatory Matters.” Although we believe that we have accumulated sufficient scientific data to prove that our Technology is both safe and effective, governmental agencies frequently request additional or updated data. To satisfy these requests, we may be required to expend significant amounts and delay our entry into the market place, both of which adversely affect our business. The regulatory standards that we seek to satisfy are in large part subjective, and therefore we cannot be certain that our evidence will be satisfactory in any given case until the regulatory body so determines.

Although regulatory bodies in different jurisdictions may consider approval in one jurisdiction to be persuasive on certain issues of concern, in general, we must address each regulatory body separately and attempt to satisfy its own set of standards in each case. This process is extremely time-consuming and costly. Frequently delays arise because of, among other reasons, changes in the staffing of regulatory agencies or because of changes in priorities within the regulatory agencies. Although we have employees dedicated to regulatory issues, in almost all cases we must rely on outside consultants for each jurisdiction in which we are seeking regulatory approval. Although these consultants have frequent contact and wide experience with the government agency in question, these consultants are expensive and cannot assure us of a favorable outcome or that delays will be avoided.

In certain jurisdictions, regulatory approval requires that an existing law or regulation be modified. Typically, the existing laws or regulations limit the means by which foods and beverages can be purified to the existing modalities. The modification process requires publication or debate of the intended change. Publication and debate give our competitors and those businesses that have vested interests in maintaining the exclusivity of the existing modalities the opportunity to oppose our efforts to modify the existing limitations. As a result, we may be forced to spend significant resources to counter these efforts, and we may not be successful in doing so. If we are not successful, then we could be prohibited from selling or distributing our Technology in that market. Even if we are successful, we would likely undergo significant delays and expend significant resources, which may impair or prevent us from operating in such markets.

Moreover, because we are regulated in certain markets as a food additive, we are subject to ongoing scrutiny and subject to changes in regulatory actions even after approval has been obtained. Furthermore, changes in legislation and governmental policy could also negatively impact us.

Because our Technology is applied to food and beverage products to be consumed by the public, we may face liability claims.

Although we have conducted testing programs to identify potential material defects in our Technology and have relied on published, peer-reviewed studies of UVC by independent investigators, these tests and studies may not have detected all potential defects. Any undetected defects could harm our business reputation, diminish our customer base, shrink revenues and expose us to product liability claims. We carry product liability insurance in amounts that we consider to be adequate for the size of our business. However, we cannot assure you that we will have adequate insurance to cover all claims that we may face, and any determination of liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Consumer advocates and others may question the safety of the effects of our Technology.

We are aware that certain organizations that purport to be consumer advocates and others may question the safety of irradiation for purposes of preservation and avoiding spoilage. Often, these persons question the safety testing that has been done with respect to the consumption of foods and beverages that have been irradiated and attempt to establish a link between irradiated food and cancer, despite the FDA’s efforts to educate the public on questions relating to irradiation. These persons may attempt to use the Internet or other media to bring pressure on governmental agencies and generate publicity against the use of irradiation. As a result, and because UVC may be characterized as a form of radiation, their concerns may adversely affect the reputation of our Technology and our ability to increase our revenues. Were their concerns to become pervasive, our business could be damaged. In that case, we might have to restrict our marketing and sales efforts to markets and industries that were not affected by governmental actions or publicity.

We may be unable to attract and retain qualified employees and management personnel necessary for the operation of our business.

Our future success also depends upon our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Expansion of our business and the management and operation will require additional managers and employees with industry experience, and our success will be highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain skilled management personnel and other employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for skilled personnel in our industry and in the locations in which we operate is significant. This competition may make it more difficult and expensive to attract, hire and retain qualified managers and employees.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our Articles of Incorporation contains a specific provision that eliminates the liability of directors for monetary damages that may be awarded to us and our shareholders; further, we provide indemnification to our directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our employment agreements with our executive officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against our directors and officers, which we may be unable to recover. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage us from bringing lawsuits against our directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers, even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders.

We are controlled by our current officers, directors and principal shareholders.

Our directors and executive officers and their affiliates beneficially own approximately 16.9% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. See “Item 12. Security Ownership Of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.” Accordingly, our directors, executive officers and principal shareholders will have substantial influence over, and may have the ability to control, the election of our board of directors and the outcome of issues submitted to a vote of our shareholders. Although our board members and officers owe a fiduciary duty to our shareholders and must act in good faith in a manner they reasonably believe to be in the best interests of our shareholders, as a shareholder such persons are entitled to vote their shares in their own interests, which may not always be in the interests of shareholders generally.

Risks Relating to our Securities

Shares of our Common Stock are very thinly traded, and the price may not reflect our value and there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for shares of our Common Stock either now or in the future.

Although our Common Stock is quoted on the OTCQB, shares of our Common Stock are very thinly traded, and the price of our Common Stock, if traded, may not reflect our value. OTCQB securities are not listed and traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTCQB securities transactions are conducted through a computer network connecting dealers in stocks. OTCQB stocks are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange. As a result, there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for shares of our Common Stock either now or in the future. Market liquidity will depend on the perception of our operating business and any steps that our management might take to bring us to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently, shareholders may not be able to liquidate their investment in us or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of our business. As a result holders of our securities may not find purchasers for our securities should they desire to sell the securities that they hold. Consequently, only investors having no need for liquidity in their investment and who can hold our securities for an indefinite period of time should purchase our securities.

If a more active market for our shares should develop, the price of shares of our Common Stock may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for shares of our Common Stock, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in our securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the shares of our Common Stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price.

If we are not able to satisfy the eligibility standards of the OTCQB market, the trading of our shares will become more difficult.

During 2014 the OTCQB market underwent changes that require us to comply with its new eligibility standards. If we become unable to satisfy the eligibility standards of the OTCQB market, OTCQB has advised us that it would move the trading of our shares to OTC Pink, a market in which it could be substantially more difficult for volume in our shares to increase and for buyers and sellers to transact with each other. This development, in turn, may make it more difficult for us to sell shares directly to investors because our shares will not have the liquidity of other shares of other companies. To date, we have been able to comply with the standards.

Our shares may lose their status as “DTC-Eligible.”

Shares of our Common Stock became “DTC-eligible” during the first quarter of 2013. This means that our shares can be electronically transferred between brokerage accounts. It is, however, possible that DTC could in the future change the status of our shares to other than “DTC-eligible” or otherwise subject our shares to a limited status which DTC references as a “chill.” Were either or both of these events to occur, our shares would not be able to be electronically transferred between brokerage accounts and the transfer process would therefore become manual. Manual processing may take several days and is not a favored option for companies such as us that rely on broker dealers for stock transactions. If we were to lose DTC-eligibility, our shares may not be able to trade with any volume.

We cannot assure our shareholders that an active market for shares of our Common Stock can be sustained.

We cannot assure our shareholders that an active trading market for our Common Stock can be sustained. A shareholder may find it difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our shares on the OTCQB. Securities quoted on the OTCQB may be subject to a Commission rule that imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, this rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling such securities, which may further limit the liquidity of our shares. If applicable, this rule could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

Sales by our major shareholders under Rule 144, Regulation S or another exemption from the Securities Act, or pursuant to a registration of our shares, may depress the price of our Common Stock.

As of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, our stockholder XOptics holds 1412,~~800~~000,000 shares of our Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock. Those shares are convertible into 1412,~~800~~000,000 shares of our Common Stock on a 1-to-1 basis under certain terms and conditions, including upon any sale to a third party purchaser. Any shares of Common Stock that are issued to XOptics upon conversion of its shares will be restricted securities unless the shares are first registered prior to their resale.

XOptics is able to sell, or convert and then sell, the 1412,~~800~~000,000 shares of our Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Shares that it holds under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which permits XOptics to resell, subject to various terms and conditions, its restricted securities. In addition, because XOptics is not a “U.S. person,” as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, it may be able to sell shares of our Nonvoting Convertible Preferred, or convert those shares and then sell the conversion shares, in offshore transactions.

Similarly, our other major shareholders—Trinity Asset Management Ltd. of Cape Town, South Africa (“Trinity”), RegencyCapital Corporation, a company formed under the laws of the Turks and Caicos Islands, and RD Active Capital Limited of London —are not “U.S. persons” and have sold and may continue to sell our restricted securities outside of the United States at prices that are below the prices quoted on the OTCQB.

Any sale of a substantial number of shares at one time or from time to time may depress or limit the market price of our shares. Moreover, because these sales could occur in the future, the anticipated effect of the shares becoming available in the market through future sales, also known as overhang, could reduce the trading price of shares of our Common Stock.

Our efforts to raise capital, if successful, will subject our shareholders to dilution.

As described under “—We require immediate capital to fund our operations, and we may not be able to obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our operations or to liquidate our business,” we require immediate capital to fund our operations. Our efforts to raise capital have resulted in multiple subscription and share purchase agreements. Since the date of the Share Exchange and through December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we have issued 3547,~~226~~534,~~808~~612 shares of our Common Stock, or an increase of approximately ~~151~~204% of our issued and outstanding shares. Of the shares issued, 1516,~~230~~153,~~513~~590 have been issued to shareholders in exchange for consideration, 1220,~~130~~715,~~848~~575 have been issued to discharge loans and accrued compensation liability and 710,~~865~~665,447 have been issued upon conversion of shares of our Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock. These issuances have diluted the interests of our shareholders; any future issuances will continue to dilute their interests. Therefore, any investment in our shares of our Common Stock carries that risk that such investment will be diluted by a subsequent share issuance by us as a result of, among other things, our need for external sources of capital.

We are incurring increased costs and demands upon management as a result of complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies, which could harm our operating results.

As a public company, we are incurring significant legal, accounting and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting requirements. We also are incurring substantial expenses in connection with the preparation and filing of this registration statement and responding to the Commission’s comments in connection with its review of the registration statement. We may be required to incur costs associated with current corporate governance requirements, including requirements under provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), as well as rules implemented by the Commission or any stock exchange or quotation system on which shares of our Common Stock may be listed in the future. The expenses incurred by public companies for reporting and corporate governance purposes have increased dramatically in recent years. We expect these rules and regulations to substantially increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. We are unable to currently estimate these costs with any degree of certainty. We also expect these rules and regulations may make it difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage available to privately-held companies. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as our executive officers.

If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business and investors’ views of us.

Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that will need to be evaluated frequently. Our failure to maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls in accordance with the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley could have a material adverse effect on our business. We could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our Common Stock. In addition, if our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations, and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.

Because we became public by means of a reverse acquisition, we have not been able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.

Additional risks may exist as a result of our having become a public reporting company through a “reverse acquisition.” Security analysts of major brokerage firms do not cover us or our stock. Because we became public through a reverse acquisition, there may be less incentive for brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our Common Stock. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to provide analyst coverage of us or our stock in the future, which may result in less liquidity and lower trading prices for our shareholders.

We are subject to Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd Frank and the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and time-consuming.

We are subject to Sarbanes-Oxley and the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd Frank”), as well as related rules implemented by the Commission and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal securities laws. The costs of compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the Commission, and furnishing audited reports to shareholders, are significant and require us to expend significant amount on our costs and expenses of complying with these rules, principally the fees and expenses of our professional advisors.

We have never paid dividends on our Common Stock, and we do not intend to do so for the foreseeable future.

We have never paid dividends on our Common Stock, and we do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends on our Common Stock for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, any return on an investment in our Common Stock will be realized, if at all, only when a shareholder sells shares of our Common Stock. In addition, our failure to pay dividends may make our stock less attractive to investors, adversely impacting trading volume and price.

Commission rules limit our ability to list on a national securities exchange.

Commission ~~rules~~ require us to maintain a requisite minimum share price for at least 30 of the most recent 60 trading days prior to the date of the initial listing application and the date of listing on any national securities exchange. As a result of these rules, we will be eligible to list on a national securities exchange only if our stock trades above the requisite minimum price in accordance with the listing requirements of the applicable national securities exchange.

All of our outstanding shares of our Common Stock may be sold into the public market in the near future, which could cause the market price to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

Since the Share Exchange we have registered for resale by our shareholders a total of 58,533,992 shares, or approximately 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock. We believe that, despite these registrations, our shareholders have not sold most of those shares of our Common Stock but would likely do if there were broader demand for our shares in the market or if the bid price increased. Sales of a substantial number of shares in the public market, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could depress the trading price of our Common Stock or limit increases in the trading price.

Because it may be considered a “penny stock,” our shareholders may have difficulty selling shares of our Common Stock.

Our Common Stock may be considered a “penny stock” since the price for our Common Stock is below $5.00 per share, and our Common Stock does not trade on an exchange ~~and~~ and we do not meet certain net asset or revenue thresholds. These thresholds include the possession of net tangible assets (i.e., total assets less intangible assets and liabilities) in excess of $2,000,000 if we have been operating for at least three years or $5,000,000 if we have been operating for fewer than three years, and the recognition of average revenues equal to at least $6,000,000 for each of the last three years. In that case, our shares will be subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, broker-dealers who recommend penny stocks to persons other than established customers and ~~accredited~~ accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements. The broker-dealer must make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser, considering such purchaser’s financial situation; investment experience and investment objectives, with respect to penny stock transactions, and receive the purchaser’s written consent prior to the transaction.

The penny stock rules severely limit the liquidity of securities in the secondary market, and many brokers choose not to participate in penny stock transactions. As a result, there is generally less trading in penny stocks. If you become a holder of our Common Stock, you may not always be able to resell shares of our Common Stock publicly at the time and price that a shareholder believes are fair or appropriate.

Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.

Item 2. PROPERTIES

~~SPHSA~~SPMSA leases one premises of approximately 2,000 square feet, in South Africa under an operating leases. This lease terminates at the end of May ~~2016~~2017 and will not be extended.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not involved in any material legal proceedings that are pending as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K.

PART II

Market for Common Stock

Our Common Stock has been approved for quotation on the OTCQB under the symbol “SURP.” The Company stock began trading on OTCQB on September 20, 2010. The table below sets forth the high and low bid prices for our Common Stock for the eight quarters ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016 as reported on the OTCQB website for the relevant quarters. The information reflects inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Shares of our Common Stock are very thinly traded, and the price may not reflect our value and there can be no assurance that there will be an active market for shares of our Common Stock either now or in the future” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors —Because it may be considered a “penny stock,” our shareholders may have difficulty selling shares of our Common Stock . ” ” Also, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors— If we are not able to satisfy the eligibility standards of the OTCQB market, ~~the~~ the trading of our shares will become more difficult”

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, 5870,~~533~~841,~~992~~796 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding, an additional 1412,~~800~~000,000 shares of our Common Stock were issuable upon the conversion of the issued and outstanding shares of our Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock., We have reserved 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock for future issuance under the 2012 Stock Plan, under which we issued options to purchase 475,000 shares of our Common Stock in 2013.

Record Holders

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, there were approximately 90 holders of record of our Common Stock.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, options to purchase 475,000 shares of our Common Stock had been issued under our 2012 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the “2012 Stock Plan”). Under the terms of the grants of those options, options to purchase 190,000 of those shares vested on the date of grant (November 12, 2013) , options to purchase 142,500 shares vested on November 12, 2014 and options to purchase 142,500 shares vested on November 12, 2015.

DTC Eligibility

DTC, a financial industry service provider that immobilizes and makes "book-entry" changes to ownership of securities, has advised us that shares of our Common Stock became “DTC eligible”. This means that shares of our Common Stock can be electronically transferred between brokerage accounts. It is, however, possible that in the future DTC could change the status of our shares to other than “DTC eligible” or otherwise subject them to a limited status that DTC refers to as a “chill.” Were either or both of these events to occur, the process for transferring our shares between brokerage accounts would become manual. Manual processing may take several days and is not a favored option for companies such as us that rely on broker dealers for stock transactions. Unless and until we again became DTC eligible, our shares might not be able to trade with any volume. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our shares may lose their status as “DTC-eligible.””

Dividend Policy

We have never paid or declared any dividends on our shares of Common Stock. Any future decisions regarding dividends will be made by our board of directors. We currently intend to retain and use any future earnings for the development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our board of directors has complete discretion on whether to pay dividends. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the board of directors may deem relevant.

Overview

The results presented in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” are those of SurePure, Inc. and its subsidiaries (all of which are collectively referred to in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as “we”) as reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with such consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. The results presented below pertain to our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014~~2015.

Insufficient Funding

For the period from our inception on August 24, 2005 to December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we had net losses of approximately $3536,~~022~~509,000. During ~~2015, although we had an increase in operating~~ ~~revenues~~2016, we ~~nevertheless~~ continued to experience a significant shortfall in funding from investors. As a result, we require significant ~~additional~~ additional funding to maintain our operations and execute our business plan. If we are unable to obtain financing from our current ~~shareholders~~ shareholders or other sources, we will be unable to meet our business objectives and may scale back or even discontinue our operations ~~until~~ until such time, if ever, that we are able to obtain financing. Notwithstanding our efforts to obtain financing, there is no assurance that any financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Business Overview

SurePure Inc. (SURP) is quoted on the OTCQB market and owns the international patent for a novel liquid purification technology that uses UV, rather than heat, to sterilize liquids. Using ultraviolet C light, the photopurification process can deliver the same or superior microbiological efficacy to pasteurization on both clear and turbid liquids without the concomitant energy consumption or degradation of the liquid, either biochemically or organoleptically.

Although UV light has long been used as a surface sterilizer and has been applied to clear water successfully, this is the first technology of its kind that can process opaque or turbid liquids. Its scope of application is therefore virtually unlimited. Food-grade liquid application in beverages abound; technical application to process water and liquid raw materials, as well as liquids such as diesel are possible; even the medical application of this technology from blood to breast milk is being explored. We continue to do research work either by ourselves or in ~~conjunction~~conjuction with clients to establish the efficacy on other liquids including various consumer beverages and home care products.

The heart of the SurePure photopurification technology is the Turbulator technology for which SurePure holds one United States and 16 foreign patents. The unique and self-cleaning design of the Turbulator enables the purification of turbid liquids on an industrial processing scale.

We have experienced negative cash flows from operations with respect to our business since our inception. As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we did not have adequate working capital resources to satisfy our current liabilities, and, as a result, we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Based on our current projections, we are not assured that we will have the cash resources to enable us to continue to fund normal operations. In addition, during the year, we issued Common Stock in settlement of certain liabilities that we were unable to settle in cash.

Plan of Operation

We seek to expand the commercial acceptance of our SurePure Turbulator purification systems. To pursue this goal, contingent on our obtaining sufficient capital to maintain our operations, we plan to execute the following steps:

Relying on the regulatory approval that was granted in January 2016 by the European Food Standards Agency for dairy milk treated with our Technology to extend its shelflife and increase its vitamin D content, to generate additional customer interest and transactions in the EU and elsewhere for dairy applications;

· Attend and promote our product at international trade shows in ~~2016~~2017 for the brewing, dairy industries, ~~liquid~~carbonated ~~egg~~soft drink and industrial applications. At these venues we will seek to establish contact with industry participants, including distributors of engineered systems, and to make them aware of our product’s advantages and the expanded applications of the product that we have developed;

· Continue to pursue regulatory clearances and approvals for applications, such as dairy, that are required for our technology to be sold in those industries. In particular, we expect to take the following actions with regulatory agencies:

· To request review of the SurePure technology by the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for a number of applications so that the technology may be categorized as “generally recognized as safe,” or “GRAS”; and

· To receive approval from the International Organization of Wine and Vine (“OIV”) for the use of the SurePure technology for wine industry applications.

Seek to market and sell our product and our technology for industrial applications;

· Seek to expand the level of commercialization of our technology in the ~~liquid egg,~~ wine, dairy, fruit juice, carbonated soft drink and other beverage industries;

Expand our distribution networks for our products by identifying additional distributors according to geographic market, expertise with specific liquids and existing client relationships and negotiating agreements with the identified distributors on terms acceptable to both the distributors and to us; and

Obtain additional equity financing to support our growth from current shareholders, institutional investors or other investors to provide capital to support and augment our operations.

Our goal is to grow significantly over the next five years through the use of working capital and equity financing, if capital and financing are available to us. If we are able to obtain sufficient financing, we believe that it will be feasible for us to grow our operations based on our strategy of targeting strategic global regions with multiple potential clients for the commercialization of our technology. However, we will also seek to carefully monitor the risks associated with achieving our goal to increase commercialization and meet client expectations while also becoming financially solvent.

During the period ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we focused on the following activities:

continuing with commercial trials with key customers;

concluding agreements with customers;

· working with regulatory authorities such that our technology can be employed in key areas;

manufacturing, delivering and commissioning equipment ordered by customers; and

attempting to negotiate financing arrangements.

Subsequent to December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we have focused on the following activities:

continuing with commercial trials with key customers;

concluding agreements and accepting orders from new customers;

· pursuing the expansion of our customer base and distributor network internationally based in part on the regulatory approval received in the EU in January 2016;

· working with regulatory authorities such that our technology can be employed in key areas;

manufacturing, delivering and commissioning equipment ordered by customers; and

negotiating possible equity financing agreements.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016 compared with our results of operations for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015:

	Years Ended:				Variance
	December 31, 2015		December 31, 2014		$			%
	December 31, 2016		December 31, 2015		$			%
Revenues	$	21,~~454~~237,000	$	~~557~~2,454,000		(1,~~897~~217,000	)		~~341~~-50	%
General and Administrative Expenses		1,~~822~~682,000		21,~~960~~822,000		(1140,~~138,~~000	)		-388	%
Research and Development		4627,000		~~193~~46,000		(~~147~~19,000	)		-7641	%
Interest Expense		47223,000		~~179~~47,000		~~(132~~176,000	)		~~-74~~374	%
Net Loss		~~697~~1,487,000		3697,~~099,~~000		(2790,~~402,~~000	)		~~-78~~113	%

Revenues

We had revenues of approximately $21,~~454~~237,000 during the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, representing a ~~341~~50% ~~increase~~decrease as compared to approximately $~~557~~2,454,000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015. This ~~increase~~decrease as compared to the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015 was primarily due to the ~~increase~~fewer in new customer ~~installations~~ installations during the period.

Although we are negotiating certain agreements for the commercialization of our SurePure technology and although there are ongoing tests of our technology with potential customers, it is unlikely that more than two or three of those agreements as currently structured will generate significant amounts of revenue during ~~2016~~2017. As a general matter, however, we expect that revenues will increase to the extent that our commercialization efforts are successful. These commercialization efforts seek to introduce our technology to a broader range of clients and geographic areas. Our business model is largely based on sales of equipment.

General and Administrative Expenses

We had general and administrative expenses of of approximately $1,~~822~~682,000 during the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, representing a 388% decrease as compared with approximately $21,~~960~~822,000 during the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015. The decrease as compared to ~~2014~~2015 was primarily due to lower professional fees ~~resulting from the reorganization of our South African entities as direct subsidiaries during 2014~~, lower employment costs due to reduction in staff numbers and remuneration levels, as well as reduced travel expenditures due to timing of customer visits.

General and administrative expenses are largely attributable to employment costs, professional and consulting fees and business travel expenses.

We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods if we are able to obtain funding for our operations, as the increased level of commercialization of our technology will require increased levels of staffing and associated expenditures.

Research and Development Expenses

We incurred research and development expenses of approximately $4627,000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, representing a 7641% decrease as compared with approximately $~~193~~46,000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015. This decrease as compared to the ~~2014~~2015 year was primarily due to timing of research work related to regulatory submissions.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase in future periods as we pursue new applications and clients for our technology.

Net Interest Expense

We had net interest expense of approximately $47223,000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, representing a 74374% ~~decrease~~increase, as compared to approximately $~~179~~47,000 of net interest expense for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015. This ~~decrease~~increase was mainly due to the fact that during ~~August~~February ~~2014~~2016 we ~~repaid~~entered ~~the debenture~~into ~~that had been outstanding during~~ a ~~portion~~loan ~~of 2014~~agreement.

Gain on Settlement of Debt

We recognized a gain of $71150,~~851~~ 599 representing the difference between the fair value of the consideration issued in the settlement transaction and the carrying value of the amounts due toofficers ~~MCubed,~~ and a number of other current liabilities. This gain has been included as ‘‘Gain on settlement of debt’’ under ‘‘Other income (expense)’’ within income from continuing operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016.

Net Loss

For the reasons discussed above, we had a net loss of approximately $~~697~~1,487,000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, compared with a net loss of approximately $3697,~~099,~~000 for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015.

~~Although~~We ~~we generated a profit in the second and third quarters, we~~ did not generated sufficient revenue to fund our operations for the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016. We expect our net losses to occur from time to time until such time as our commercialization efforts for our technology produce an increase in revenues sufficient to meet the cost of our operations on an ongoing basis.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

We have realized net operating losses in Switzerland, South Africa and the United States. In addition to net operating losses in prior periods, our net operating losses may result in a potential future income tax benefit, to the extent that any unexpired net operating loss carry-forwards can offset future operating profits.

Impact of Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a ~~material~~ material effect on our operations for the period from August 24, 2005 (when our operations began) to December 31, ~~2015~~2016.

Capital Expenditures

We did not invest in property and equipment during the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity have ~~historically~~ historically been through sales of our Common Stock to our investors. During the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, however, we were unable to obtain significant additional equity funding. During the year we entered into a loan agreement and additionally, as noted below, we have also issued Common Stock in settlement of certain liabilities during the year.

We continue to discuss potential financing transactions with various third parties, but we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to conclude financing transactions with these or any other investors.

Our current assets are insufficient to meet our current obligations or to satisfy our cash needs over the next twelve months and, as such, we require debt or equity financing. We are pursuing prospective sources for equity financing in an amount that would allow us to meet our commercialization targets. We face significant obstacles to attracting new financing due to our historical and current record of net losses and working capital deficits and the low level of the commercialization of our technology. Therefore, despite our efforts, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to obtain the financing required to meet our stated objectives or even to continue our business as a going concern.

The ~~following~~ following table summarizes our financial position at December 31, ~~2015~~2016, compared with our financial position at December 31, ~~2014~~2016:

	As of:				Variance
	December 31, 2016		December 31, 2015		$			%

Cash	$	-		5,000		5,000			100	%

Other Current Assets		40,000		235,000		(195,000	)		-83	%

Total Assets		102,000		320,000		(218,000	)		-68	%

Current Liabilities		1,827,000		1,747,000		80,000			-53	%

	As of:				Variance
	December 31, 2015		December 31, 2014		$			%
Cash	$	5,000	$	1,000		4,000			400	%
Other Current Assets		235,000		423,000		(188,000	)		-44	%
Total Assets		320,000		519,000		(199,000	)		-38	%
Current Liabilities		1,747,000		3,079,000		1,332,000			-43	%

As noted above under “Insufficient Funding” and as also noted below under this heading, our current cash resources are extremely limited.

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we had cash of approximately $~~5,000~~0 and other current assets of approximately $~~235~~40,000, consisting of prepaid expenses, and total assets of ~~approximately~~ approximately $~~320~~102,000. As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we had no accounts receivable due to the timing of sales contacts. As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we had current liabilities of approximately $1,~~747~~827,000, consisting of accounts payable, accounts payable to related parties, accrued liabilities and ~~accrued~~short ~~liabilities~~term loans. Of this amount, approximately $~~233~~42,000 represented liabilities that were due to officers and directors, a decrease in liabilities to officers and stockholders of approximately $1233,~~332,~~000 as compared to such amount as of December 31, ~~2014~~ 2015. This was attributable to the fact that we issued 83,~~362~~908,~~176~~706 shares of our Common Stock in settlement of a portion of the liability (approximately $1611,~~331,070~~900) to our officers and directors. Additionally we issued 1,676,000 shares of our Common Stock, in exchange for the cancellation in full of loan indebtedness of ZAR 3,542,204 (approximately $280,400), including interest and loan fees, due to an entity that had advanced funds to SPMSA and we issued 1,150,000 shares of our Common Stock in settlement of certain current liabilities of approximately $181,500.

Our shareholders’ deficit was approximately $1,~~427~~724,000 as of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, compared with deficit of approximately $21,~~560~~427,000 as of December 31, ~~2014~~2015.

Cash Flow Analysis

For the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016 our ~~cash~~ cash used in operating activities was approximately $37435,000, which amount corresponded mainly to net losses from our operations ~~offset~~ offset by a decrease in customer deposits, liabilities and amounts due to officers and stockholders, a portion of which was settled with the issuance of shares of our Common Stock. We expect to continue to have periods of negative cash flows from operating activities until such time as we fully commercialize our technology.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have a defined stock option plan and contractual commitments with all of our officers and directors. See “Market for Registrants Common Equity, Related Equity Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities—Equity Compensation Plan Information” below in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We plan to increase the number of employees and consultants to meet the anticipated demand if we are able to achieve wider acceptance of our technology.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, ~~2015~~2016, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We designed our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide such reasonable assurance.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that such controls and procedures, as any controls and procedures, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Mr. Robinson was appointed as a member of the board of directors due to his strong experience in management, structuring and finance planning of international businesses. In addition to his extensive familiarity with SurePure group of companies, he had been employed by Samancor (then part of the BHP Billiton Group) for ten years where he became group finance manager and was involved with international joint ventures, corporate treasury and international reporting, as well as the corporate governance and risk management portfolios. For two years, he was employed by the largest mining section in the Anglo Platinum Group to develop and manage a multidisciplinary services unit, which deployed logistical, engineering, financial and human resources support to four key operating units accounting for a substantial portion of Anglo Platinum’s outputs. Mr. Robinson is a citizen of the United Kingdom and a resident of Switzerland.

Guy Kebble —Prior to the Share Exchange, Mr. Kebble served as the chief executive officer and a director of SPHSA and SPMSA since the inception of the SurePure business in 2005, both of which companies are variable interest entities of SurePure US. Mr. Kebble’s role at SurePure incorporates the following key areas of responsibility: shareholder interaction, strategic development, brand and market assessment, key stakeholder relationships and team building.

Mr. Kebble began his career in 1990 working for Natal Rugby Union as a professional rugby player. From 1996 to 2004 he managed private property portfolio managed investments. His involvement as a financier in the South African mining business led to the SurePure technology being brought forward as a project. Mr. Kebble is a citizen and resident of South Africa. His enthusiasm, passion and drive have been instrumental in bringing the technology to the current stage of technical development and market awareness. These qualifications, among others, led to the conclusion that Mr. Kebble should serve as a member of our board of directors.

Procedures for Security Holders to Nominate Candidates to the Board of Directors

During ~~2015~~2016, there were no changes made to the procedures by which shareholders may nominate candidates to our board of directors. The full board of directors will consider all director candidates nominated by shareholders during such times as the Company is actively considering appointment of new directors. Candidates recommended by shareholders will be evaluated based on the same criteria described above. Shareholders desiring to suggest a candidate for consideration should send a letter to the Company’s Corporate Secretary and include:

5150

a statement that the writer is a shareholder (providing evidence if the person’s shares are held in street name) and is proposing a candidate for consideration;

the name and contact information for the candidate;

a statement of the candidate’s business and educational experience;

information regarding the candidate’s qualifications to be director, including but not limited to an evaluation of the factors discussed above which the board would consider in evaluating a candidate;

information regarding any relationship or understanding between the proposing shareholder and the candidate;

information regarding potential conflicts of interest; and

a statement that the candidate is willing to be considered and willing to serve as director if nominated and elected.

There is no assurance that all shareholder proposed candidates will be fully considered, that all candidates will be considered equally, or that the proponent of any candidate or the proposed candidate will be contacted by the Company or the board, and no undertaking to do so is implied by the willingness to consider candidates proposed by shareholders.

Our bylaws do not set forth procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors.

Director Independence

We are not currently a “listed company” under the rules of the Commission and are therefore not required to have a board comprised of a majority of independent directors or separate committees comprised of independent directors. We do not have any independent directors. We use the definition of “independence” under Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules, as applicable and as may be modified or supplemented from time to time and the interpretations thereunder, to determine if the members of our board are independent. In making this determination, our board considers, among other things, transactions and relationships between each director and his immediate family and the Company, including those described under “Item 11. Executive Compensation.” The purpose of this review is to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are material and, therefore, inconsistent with a determination that the directors are independent.

Board Committees

As of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, we do not have any board committees. We may in the future adopt certain board committees, although we cannot assure you when or if this will occur. Accordingly, the descriptions below are for informational purposes only.

We do not have an Audit Committee.

Executive Compensation, and Director Nomination and Corporate Governance Function

We do not have a compensation committee, nominating or corporate governance committee.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Executive officers, directors and ~~certain~~ certain persons who own more than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock are required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to file with the Commission an initial report of ownership of our Common Stock on Form 3 and reports of change s in ownership on Form 4 or Form 5, and such persons are required to furnish us with copies of all such forms that they file. We believe that all such Section 16(a) reports were filed on a timely basis in ~~2015, except as follows: (i) the Estate of Roger Kebble filed its Form 3 on November 20, 2015; the date of acquisition of the shares reported therein was August 25, 2015; (b) Guy R~~2016. ~~Kebble~~ ~~filed a Form 4 on August 13, 2015; the date of acquisition of the shares reported therein was August 7, 2015; and (c) Stephen M~~. ~~Robinson filed a Form 4 on August 13, 2015; the date of acquisition of the shares reported therein was August 7, 2015.~~

Code of Ethics

We have a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (the “Code”) that applies to all directors, officers and employees, which will be posted on our website or can be obtained by writing to us at 405 Lexington Avenue, 25 ^th /26 ^th Floor, New York, New York 10174 c/o Corporate Secretary. All of our directors, officers and employees are expected to be familiar with the Code and to adhere to those principles and procedures set forth in the Code that apply to them. The Company will post any amendments to the Code, as well as any waivers that are required to be disclosed by the rules of the Commission, on the Company’s web site.

Item 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In determining executive compensation, we consider the skills and added value of the individuals concerned, as well as relative cost of living and the statutory requirements in the jurisdiction in which the individual provides his services. Since our executives provide their services to various of our subsidiaries, in some cases we use separate employment contracts.

Employment and Consulting Agreements

Guy Kebble and SPMSA entered into an ~~updated~~ updated Service Agreement dated July 1, 2012, under which SPMSA appointed Mr. Kebble as a permanent employee in the position of chief executive officer. The appointment is of indefinite duration, but may be terminated either by the employer or by Mr. Kebble on not less than three months’ prior written notice to the other and may also be summarily terminated by the employer if the executive commits a material breach of his contractual obligations under the agreement or in any circumstances justifying such termination at law. At the end of 2016 the consulting arrangement was modified such that Mr. Kebble’s services are being rendered solely to SPO. This modification became effective as of July 1, 2015. As chief executive officer, Mr. Kebble reports to the board of directors. His compensation under the agreement is ZAR 960,000 per annum (approximately $63,000) and is to be reviewed annually by the board of directors with a view to granting inflation-related or other increases. Mr. Kebble is also to be reimbursed for expenses incurred on behalf of SPMSA. The agreement provides for 20 days of vacation per year.

Mr. Kebble also has entered into an updated Consulting Agreement with SPO, dated January 1, 2012, under which he provides his services as an independent contractor to develop markets globally for those products and services marketed by SPO and to provide such other assistance to SPO as agreed with the directors of SPO from time to time. Under this agreement, Mr. Kebble has agreed to serve as the chief executive officer of SurePure US and its subsidiaries. Effective January 1, 2015, Mr. Kebble’s remuneration from SPO is $150,000 per annum payable in equal monthly installments. Either party to the consulting agreement may terminate it for convenience on three months’ prior written notice. SPO has the right to terminate the agreement for cause with immediate notice. The agreement further provides that during the term of the agreement and for one year after the completion of his services to SPO, Mr. Kebble will not provide any services relating to the products or services of SPO to its clients. The agreement further provides that Mr. Kebble may not disclose any of SPO’s confidential information or other trade secrets and may not solicit or contact any employee, advisor or other individual working on behalf of clients in connection with SPO’s products or services for the purpose of obtaining or executing new work for the same 12-month period. The agreement is governed by Swiss law.

Stephen Robinson entered into an Employment Agreement with SPO, dated July 1, 2012, under which he is employed as the chief financial officer of SPO. In performing his duties, Mr. Robinson reports to the chief executive officer and board of directors of SPO. His duties are to be determined by the board of directors and include those normally associated with the position of chief financial officer. Subject to provisions of applicable law which permit termination for cause, Mr. Robinson’s appointment may be terminated either by SPO or by Mr. Robinson on not less than three months’ prior written notice to the other. Effective January 1, 2015 Mr. Robinson’s remuneration from SPO is CHF 318,000 (approximately $320,000) per annum payable in equal monthly installments and is to be reviewed annually by the board of directors with a view to granting inflation-related or other increases. In addition, the employer agrees to make contributions for social security and other compulsory expenses, plus the cost of certain airfare, and other local travel expenses in Switzerland. Mr. Robinson also is entitled to receive an allowance of CHF 500 (approximately $500) per month. The agreement further provides that Mr. Robinson may not disclose any of SPO’s confidential information or other trade secrets.

Each grant of options vests and becomes exercisable as follows: 40% on the date of grant; the next 30% on the first anniversary of the date of grant; and the remaining 30% on the second anniversary of the date of grant. The exercise price of each option is $0.89 per share which was the fair market value of our Common Stock, as ascertained by our Board of Directors.

2012 Stock Plan

In December of 2012, our directors and a majority of our shareholders, acting by written consent, approved the 2012 Stock Plan. We have reserved 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock for future issuance under the 2012 Stock Plan, of which 475,000 shares are subject to outstanding grants of options.

5655

The 2012 Stock Plan authorizes the granting of non-qualified stock options to our directors and to any independent consultants. The Plan will be administered by our board, or a committee appointed by our board (in either case, the “Committee”). The Committee may determine persons eligible for grants and the timing, type, amount, fair market value and other provisions of such grants. The Committee will have authority, subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to construe the Plan and the option agreements granted pursuant to the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations in the judgment of the Committee necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any option agreement in the manner and to the extent it shall deem expedient to promote the best interests of the Company. Our board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.

The Plan provides that the determination of the option price per share for any option rests in the sole and unfettered discretion of the Committee. Options granted under the Plan must be granted within ten years from the date on which the Plan has been adopted. No options granted under the Plan may be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant. The Committee may establish installment exercise terms for an option such that the option becomes fully exercisable in a series of accumulating portions. The Committee may also accelerate the exercise of any option. Options may be exercised by delivery of a written notice of exercise and payment of the full price of the Common Stock underlying the option. The exercise price of an option may be paid in cash, or, at the discretion of the Committee, through the delivery of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock having an aggregate fair market value as of the date of exercise equal to the option price, or by a combination of both. The Committee has the right to determine acceptable methods for tendering shares of Common Stock as payment upon exercise and may impose such limitations and prohibitions on the use of Common Stock to exercise an option as it deems appropriate. With the consent of the optionee, the Committee may cancel any options issued under the Plan and issue a new option to the optionee. Except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or with the written consent of the Committee, no optionee may assign his interest in any option and no interest of any optionee in a stock option may become subject to any lien or obligation of the optionee. Options shall be exercisable during the optionee's lifetime only by the optionee or his assignees or by the duly appointed legal representative of an incompetent optionee or after the optionee's lifetime only by the duly appointed legal representative of the deceased optionee.

If the Company becomes a party to any merger, consolidation, reorganization or sale of assets, each outstanding option applies to the securities or property which a holder of the Company’s Common Stock be entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction. Whenever a change in control occurs, certain optionees are entitled to receive, in lieu of the exercise of their options, a cash payment equal to the difference between the exercise price of the option and the final offer price per share paid for common stock or such lower price as the Committee may determine to conform an option to preserve its status or the aggregate fair market value of the Common Stock underlying the stock options.

At any time and from time to time the Company’s board of directors may suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part or amend the Plan in such respects as the board may deem appropriate and in the best interest of the company. No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, however, without the optionee's consent, alter or impair any of the rights or obligations granted under the Plan.

5756

Each option granted under the plan is to be embodied in a written stock option agreement and shall be signed by the optionee and an officer of the Company. Option agreements are to be subject to applicable provisions of the Plan and such other provisions as the Committee may adopt.

The Plan terminates on December 9, 2022.

Director Compensation

We have not yet determined any policy ~~for~~ for the payment of compensation to our directors in their capacities as directors. Our directors received no compensation in their capacity as such during ~~2014~~2015 or ~~2015~~2016. We may make grants of options from time to time under the 2012 Stock Plan to our directors in addition to those grants made in November 2013.

Our directors have been, and will continue to be, reimbursed for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by them in connection with travel to and from board meetings.

Item 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table summarizes certain ~~information~~ information regarding the beneficial ownership (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of our outstanding Common Stock as of December 31, ~~2014~~2016 by (i) each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock, (ii) each of our directors, (iii) each of our named executive officers (as defined in Item 402(m) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act), and (iv) all executive officers and directors as a group. Shares of our common stock subject to options, warrants, or other rights currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of the Share Exchange are deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for purposes of computing the share ownership and percentage of the person holding such options, warrants or other rights, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. An asterisk (*) denotes less than 1%.

Name of Beneficial Owner	Number of Shares Beneficially Owned (1)			Percent Beneficially Owned (1)

Transactions with Related Persons

Transactions with Trinity and Affiliates

We believe that during 2013 and parts of 2014 Trinity was the beneficial owner of 7,246,000, or 17.5%, of the shares of our Common Stock as of December 31, 2013, after including as beneficially owned 900,000 shares of our Common Stock referred to under “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions—Transactions with Trinity Asset Management Limited and Affiliates—TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement.” See “Item 12. Security Ownership Of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.” We now believe that because of changes to its authority to vote and dispose of shares of our Common Stock, it no longer beneficially owns 5% or more of shares of our Common Stock.

Tamil Share Purchase Agreement dated September 19, 2013, as Amended

On September 20, 2013, we and Trinity Asset Management International Limited (“TAMIL”), a company formed under the laws of Mauritius, entered into the Share Purchase Agreement (the “TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement”), dated as of September 19, 2013, under which TAMIL agreed to purchase 900,000 shares of our Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, during the period ending March 25, 2014 in a series of nine installments. On November 7, 2013, we and TAMIL entered into an amendment of the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement Under the terms of the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement, as amended, TAMIL may purchase the 900,000 shares of our Common Stock from us from time to time during the period ending March 25, 2014 at a cash purchase price equal to the greater of $1.00 per share and 92% of the volume-weighted average trading price of shares of our Common Stock during the 20 trading day period ending on the day that is 3 days prior to the closing of the purchase and sale of our shares.

During the first quarter of 2014, TAMIL purchased 184,825 shares of our Common Stock.

The shares purchased and to be purchased by TAMIL under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement are restricted shares and bear a restrictive legend. In conjunction with the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement, we and TAMIL entered into a separate registration rights agreement which provides that, within 60 days after the date when TAMIL has purchased all of the shares required to be purchased under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement, we will file a registration statement for the resale of the shares sold under that agreement.

In the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement TAMIL represented to us that it was an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and was also not a “U.S. Person” within the meaning of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. TAMIL also represented that it was not acquiring the shares under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement for the benefit of any U.S. Person, that it will be the sole beneficial owner of the shares and that it has not prearranged any sale to any persons in the United States. TAMIL was outside of the United States when it entered into the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement and is expected to be outside of the United States at such time as it purchases the shares under that agreement. On the basis of the representations and warranties that TAMIL has made to us in the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement, we believe that the sales of shares of our Common Stock under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreements will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

TAMIL has advised us that it is related to Trinity.

Agreement for Subscription of Shares dated May 20, 2014

On May 20, 2014 we and Trinity entered into the Agreement for the Subscription of Shares (the “May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement”). Under the May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement, Trinity agreed to arrange, from time to time until July 30, 2014, for persons that desired to subscribe for shares of our Common Stock to tender and deliver to us separate written offers to purchase up to 850,000 shares of our Common Stock. Upon our receipt of an offer from a subscriber, if we accepted the offer we were obligated to notify Trinity of our acceptance and to issue to the subscriber named in the offer the shares of our Common Stock that were subscribed for against payment of the purchase price for the shares. On July 24, 2014, we and Trinity extended the date by which it could arrange for subscriptions to September 30, 2014.

Trinity entered into the May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement in part to obtain our release of TAMIL from its obligations under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement. As noted above, under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement, TAMIL was obligated to purchase 900,000 shares of our Common Stock and had purchased only 184,825 shares prior to the termination of the Share Purchase Agreement on March 25, 2014. As part of the May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement, upon the issue, sale and delivery of all of the 850,000 shares available for subscription under the May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement, TAMIL was to have been released from its obligations under the TAMIL Share Purchase Agreement. During 2014 Trinity did not arrange any offers to subscribe for shares of our Common Stock under the May 2014 Trinity Subscription Agreement or otherwise.

The board of directors determined that the provision of services by ~~RSSM~~RBSM described above is compatible with maintaining ~~RSSM~~RBSM’s independence at our independent registered public accounting firm.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related ~~consolidated~~ consolidated statements of operations, other comprehensive ~~income (~~loss), changes in stockholders’ ~~equity (~~deficit) and cash flows for the two ~~year~~years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our ~~audit~~audits. The consolidated financial statements of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and for the year then ended, were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations and whose report dated March 30, 2015, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the ~~year~~two years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1412 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital deficiency. Also, as more fully described in Note xx, the Company is in arrears with various governmental authorities in Switzerland. This could result in seizure of the Company’s assets and effectively force a shutdown of its operations which could force liquidation of the entire Company. These conditions among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters also are described in Note 1412. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors

SurePure Inc. and Subsidiaries

New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“SurePure” or the “Company”) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, other comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2014, and for the period from August 24, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2014. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its consolidated operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2014, and for the period from August 24, 2005 (inception) to December 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced significant losses and negative cash flows, resulting in increased accumulated deficits during its development stage. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 15. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

SurePure Investment Holding AG (“SPI”) was incorporated in Switzerland in 2007. From 2007 to December 12, 2012 SPI was the holding company of the SurePure Group (the “Group”), which included subsidiaries and other entities whose activities primarily benefit the Group. On December 12, 2012, SPI entered into an Amended and Restated Share Exchange Agreement with SurePure, Inc. (“SurePure US” or the “Company”) pursuant to which SurePure US acquired SPI in a share exchange (the “Share Exchange”) and became the holding company for the Group, including SPI. Although SurePure US is the legal acquirer of SPI, SPI is treated as the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes and under this method, SurePure US retains SPI’s financial reporting history.

Under the Share Exchange, each share of the capital stock of SPI was exchanged for one share of SurePure US common stock, par value $.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and, in the case of one shareholder of SPI, one share of Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Nonvoting Convertible Preferred Stock”).

The Group has developed technology for ~~using~~ using shortwave ultraviolet light (“UV-C”) to purify turbid liquids such as wine, fruit juice and milk. Although initially designed to treat food-grade applications, it has successfully been applied to liquids such as dairy products for animal consumption, protein products, bovine blood plasma, water, brines and sugar syrup solutions. The Group holds ~~patents~~a patent in 68 countries for this technology. The Group has been engaged in raising capital, continuing research and development of its technologies and developing markets for its products.

Basis of Presentation

~~The~~Our accompanying audited consolidated financial statements ~~of SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”)~~ have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the ~~Unites~~ United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Our consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of ~~America~~the consolidated results of operations and financial position for periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Amounts in our audited consolidated financial statements are, except as otherwise noted, expressed in U.S. ~~dollars~~Dollars.

~~Principles~~The preparation of ~~Consolidation~~financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Inter-company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are as follows:

SurePure Investment Holding AG (“SPI”), which wholly-owns SPO;

SurePure Operations AG (“SPO”), which markets the products of the Group and earns its revenue by selling or otherwise distributing equipment utilizing the Group’s technology globally. SPO owns a patent for the Group’s technology in various countries;

SurePure Participations AG (“SPP”), is a minority stockholder of SPI and is part of the common holding structure of the Group. SPP has no operations. SPP became a subsidiary as a result of the Share Exchange on December 12, 2012;

SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

SurePure Holdings South Africa (Pty) Ltd., which holds the South African patent, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, SurePure Marketing South Africa (Pty) Ltd. (“SPMSA”), which sells or otherwise distributes equipment utilizing the Group’s technology in South Africa. These entities became subsidiaries as a result of their acquisition on June 12, 2013; and

SurePure Latin America Maqinas de Purificasao UVC Ltda. (“SPLAM”), which conducts no operations currently and is in the final stages of deregistration.

The Group’s reporting currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”) and these consolidated financial statements are presented in USD or “$.”

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company has, effective January 1, 2015, early adopted ASU 2014-10 Development Stage Entities which eliminates the requirement to provided Development Stage Entity reporting. As such, the financial statements as presented no longer contain information that aggregates all activities from the date of inception through the reporting date. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our financial position or results or operations.

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Income Taxes

The Group accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized based on the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, as measured by current enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not provide a future tax benefit.

GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the consolidated financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion, the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and one that will likely be sustained under examination. There are no uncertain tax positions requiring adjustment to or disclosure in these consolidated financial statements.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts due ~~from~~ from customers and are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables. The Group establishes a provision for estimated doubtful accounts, if necessary. ~~No allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed to be necessary at December 31, 2014.~~

SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

Property, Equipment and Related Depreciation

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire the asset and any expenditures that substantially increase the asset’s value or extend the useful life of an existing asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the period benefited. Expenditures for routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in operations.

Depreciation is provided over the following estimated useful lives:

Plant machinery	3 to 5 years
Furniture and fixtures	3 to 5 years
Motor vehicles	5 years
Office and computer equipment	3 to 5 years

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of patents in various countries around the world for the Company’s UV-C purification technology. The patents were initially recognized at their cost and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of twelve years beginning with the acquisition of the patents in 2008. The patents expire in October 2020.

The Group evaluates the carrying value of its intangible assets for impairment at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances are identified by management that indicate that such carrying values may not be fully recoverable. The evaluation involves estimating the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be derived from the assets to assess whether or not a potential impairment exists. As a result of its evaluations, management determined that it was not necessary to recognize a loss on impairment of its intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.F-10

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Revenue

Revenue is earned from sales or use of equipment that uses the Company’s patented technology and is recognized, net of returns and discounts, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. These criteria are usually met upon completion of delivery and customer acceptance testing of the product by the customer.

Major Customers and Accounts Receivable

The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue, or whose accounts receivable balances individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable, as follows:

For the year ended December 31, ~~2015~~2016, ~~two~~1 customer accounted for 96% of revenue and for the year ended December 31, 2015, 2 customers accounted for 9293% of revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, four customers accounted for 73% of revenue.

At December 31, 2014, one customer accounted for 77% of the accounts receivable.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company measures compensation cost for all stock options granted based on fair value on the measurement date, which is typically the grant date. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model. The fair value of each share is based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. Equity-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each stock option or stock grant expected to vest with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on the Company’s historical experience and future expectations.

Foreign Currency Translations

These consolidated financial statements are presented in USD, which is the Group’s reporting currency. The consolidated financial statements of the Group members have been translated into USD in accordance with GAAP. All asset and liability accounts on the consolidated balance sheets have been translated using the spot exchange rate in effect at the consolidated balance sheet date. Equity accounts have been translated at their historical rates when the capital transaction occurred. Income and expenses have been translated at the average exchange rates for the periods presented. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements are included in the consolidated statement of other comprehensive income (loss). Actual transaction gains and losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred.

The functional currencies of the companies included in the Group are their respective local currencies. Accordingly, the Group is exposed to transaction gains and losses that result from changes in various foreign currency exchange rates.

Applicable functional currencies are:

SPI, SPO, and SPP	Swiss Francs – CHF
SPLAM	Brazilian Real – BRL
SPHSA and SPMSA	South African Rand – ZAR

SurePure, Inc. and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue shares of Common Stock, such as options, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into shares of Common Stock or could otherwise cause the issuance of shares of Common Stock that then would share in earnings (losses). Such potential issuances of additional shares of Common Stock are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. Except as disclosed in ~~Note~~Notes 75, 6 and 119 of these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has no securities or other contracts to issue shares of Common Stock that could cause any dilution of earnings. In addition, when there is a loss, diluted loss per share is not computed because any potential additional common shares of Common Stock would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

The terms of the loan provide for interest of 2% per month on the outstanding balance which is payable together with the principal balance no later than December 31, 2013.

6. Convertible Debentures Payable

On June 23, 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Peak One”), under which the Company has the right, subject to the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, to issue up to three convertible debentures each in the face amount of $125,000. . Each debenture was payable in full on the third anniversary of the date of issue (the “maturity date”). Each debenture provideded for a discount of $12,500 upon issuance and sale and a zero percent stated interest rate. The Company issued the first debenture (the “Debenture”) to Peak One on June 23, 2014. The Company paid Peak One $10,000 for legal and other costs that were deducted from the proceeds of issuance. The Securities Purchase Agreement also provided for the issuance of 75,000 shares of Common Stock to an affiliate of Peak One upon the issuance of the Debenture. These shares were issued and valued at $.49 per share, which was the closing price of Common Stock on the date of issuance. The Debenture provided Peak One with the option to convert any outstanding balance under the Debenture into shares of Common Stock of the Company at 65% of the lowest closing price of Common Stock during the twenty trading days prior to conversion. This conversion price constitutes a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) that was valued at $67,308 on the date of issuance. The Company accounted for the BCF as a reduction of the balance of the related debt at the date of issuance and as an additional cost that is to be treated as noncash interest. The total costs of issuance were $126,558, including the value of 75,000 shares of Common Stock issued, the discount and the BCF, which are treated as interest, and the legal and other costs that are treated as loan costs. The Company expensed these costs currently due to the fact that the option to convert into shares rests solely with Peak One. Of the total costs associated with the Securities Purchase Agreement, $116,558 was charged to interest expense and $10,000 of loan costs was included in general and administrative expenses. Following the issuance of the Debenture, the Company registered 1,227,416 shares of Common Stock in connection with Peak One’s conversion rights.

On February 11, 2016 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with SBI Investments LLC, 2014-1, a statutory series of Delaware limited liability company (“SBI”). Under the Purchase Agreement, SBI purchased the Company’s promissory note (the “SBI Note”) in the principal amount of $330,000 for a purchase price of $300,000. The SBI Note bears interest at the rate of 0% per annum until the occurrence of an Event of Default, at which time the SBI Note bears default interest at the rate of 22% per annum. SBI has the right to convert the SBI Note into shares of the Company’s Common Stock following the occurrence of an event of default under the SBI Note, including the failure to repay the note on or before its maturity date. On August 1, 2016 the Company and SBI agreed to extend the maturity date of the SBI Note from August 9, 2016 to October 11, 2016.

On November 17, 2016 the Company and SBI agreed to extend the maturity date of the SBI Note from October 11, 2016 to January 11, 2017. As part of the agreement on November 17, 2016 to extend the maturity of the SBI Note until January 11, 2017, SBI and the Company agreed that (i) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock into which SBI could convert the SBI Note following the occurrence of an event of default under the SBI Note, including the failure to repay the SBI Note on or before January 11, 2017, would be based on a conversion price that is 52.5% of the market price of the Company’s shares, rather than 55%; and (ii) the principal amount to be paid to SBI to discharge the SBI Note in full is $390,000 if the Company repays the SBI Note prior to or on January 11, 2017. In connection with Amendment No. 2, the Company entered into a fee letter agreement with SBI under which the Company agreed to pay SBI a structuring fee on November 17, 2016 in the amount of $90,000 with 1,058,824 shares of its Common Stock and a loan monitoring fee of $45,000 which is due on the maturity of the SBI Note.

On March 29, 2017, the Company was advised by SBI that SBI will begin conversion of the SBI Note, with an initial conversion of $25,000. This initial conversion resulted in the issuance of 691,467 shares of Common Stock to SBI. In addition SBI has required that the Company increase the number of shares of Common Stock that are reserved for issuance upon conversion of the SBI Note by 25,000,000 shares to 30,000,000 shares based on the decline in the share price. The conversion results from the Company’s failure to pay the SBI Note on January 11, 2017.

On May 4, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), dated as of April 27, 2017, with LG Capital Funding, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“LGCF”). Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, LGCF agreed to purchase from the Company its 4% Convertible Redeemable Note (the “LGCF Note”) in the principal amount of $42,900. The LGCF Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock, at the option of its holder, at a conversion price equal to 55% of the average of the three lowest trading prices of Common Stock for the last 15 trading days prior to conversion. The LGCF Note also bears interest at 4% per annum, contains a 10% original issue discount such that the purchase price paid by LGCF is $39,000 and matures on April 27, 2018. As a condition to the obligation of LGCF to purchase the LGCF Note, the Company also amended and restated $35,000 principal amount of the SBI Note into a new promissory note in the principal amount of $35,000 payable to LGCF (the “Amended and Restated Note”). The Amended and Restated Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 55% of the average of the three lowest trading prices of Common Stock for the last 15 trading days prior to conversion, bears interest at 4% per annum interest and matures on April 27, 2018.

On December 11, 2012, the Company adopted the 2012 Stock Plan (the “Plan”). Under the terms of the Plan, 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for future issuance.

9. 2012 Stock Option Plan

On December 11, 2012, the Company adopted the 2012 Stock Plan (the “Plan”). Under the terms of the Plan, 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for future issuance. The Plan authorizes the granting of non-qualified stock options to the Company’s directors and to any independent consultants. The Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors, and may also be administered by a committee appointed by the board of directors (the “Committee”). The Committee may determine persons eligible for grants and the timing, type, amount, fair market value and other provisions of such grants. The Committee will have authority, subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to construe the Plan and the option agreements granted pursuant to the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations in the judgment of the Committee necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any option agreement in the manner and to the extent it shall deem expedient to promote the best interests of the Company. The Plan terminates on December 9, 2022.

The Plan provides that the determination of the option price per share for any option rests in discretion of the Committee. Options granted under the Plan must be granted within ten years from the date on which the Plan has been adopted. No options granted under the Plan may be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant. The Company’s board of directors may suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part or amend the Plan in such respects as the board may deem appropriate and in the best interest of the company. No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, however, without the optionee's consent, alter or impair any of the rights or obligations granted under the Plan.

On November 12, 2013, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of 475,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the plan, each at an exercise price of $0.89 per share. The options ~~vest~~now ~~over~~are ~~three~~fully ~~years as follows:~~vested.

Options vested on November 12, 2013			190,000
Options vested on November 12, 2014			142,500
Options vested on November 12, 2015			142,500
			475,000

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options. The principal assumptions utilized in valuing stock options include the expected stock price volatility (based on the most recent historical period beginning December 12, 2012); the expected option life; the expected dividend yield; and the risk-free rate (an estimate based upon the yields of Treasury constant maturities) equal to the expected life of the option. The fair values for the options, all of which were granted in 2013, were determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Dividend yield	0.00	%
Risk-free interest rates	2.80	%
Expected volatility	72.68	%
Expected term (in years)	10

There was no reduction for estimated forfeitures. Under this model and the foregoing assumptions, the options granted in 2013 were valued at $151,053. Of this amount, $87,452, $15,900 and $47,701 is attributable to executives, employees and consultants, respectively. Equity-based compensation for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $43,454 and $136,568, respectively. These amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

SPMSA requested additional time to arrange a payment plan that is suitable to both parties and commenced making monthly payments to SARS. Due to insufficient funds the SPMSA has been unable to continue making additional payments in this regard and has requested additional time to arrange a payment plan that is suitable to both parties. As at December 31 2016 and December 31, 2015 ~~2014~~, the unpaid balance of this liability was approximately $93105,000 and $8093,000, respectively and is included in accounts payable and other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Within the next two weeks, the Company was advised by its Swiss counsel that the Authority had agreed to a revised payment schedule for the payment of the overdue payroll taxes, with payments by SPOAG to be made before December 31, 2016. The Company did not make any of the scheduled payments and, as a result, the Authority has rejected the plan. Until the Company can make a payment that is satisfactory to the Authority, SPOAG remains at risk of having all of its assets seized by the Authority.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

To date, the Company’s cash flow has been funded with cash investments by its shareholders, certain third parties and to a considerably lesser extent, revenue. These inflows have been insufficient to enable the company to cover its costs and, as disclosed in Notes 4 and 6,resulting from the inability to settle liabilities with cash, the Company issued Common Stock to settle a number of liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2016. Additionally, as disclosed in Note 8, with respect to payroll tax obligations due in both Switzerland and South Africa and tax penalties due the IRS, the Company has been unable to meet its obligations for payment of its taxes and the filing of tax returns.

The Company’s access to additional financing, if any, will depend on a variety of factors over which the Company has little or no control. These factors include market conditions, the general unavailability of equity financing to the Company in light of its limited revenues, the actual financial and operational results of the Company on a consolidated basis, as well as investors’ perception of the Company’s short-term and long-term financial prospects. If future financing is not available on acceptable terms, or on any other terms, the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern.

Management is currently pursuing plans to address the cash flow requirements of the Company for the year ending December 31, ~~2016~~2017 and beyond. The Company is engaged in ~~discussions~~ discussions with current and other potential investors, and the Company is also considering additional offerings of Common Stock. The Company was not, however, able to secure ~~any~~significant additional equity financing during the year to December 31, ~~2015~~2016 from existing ~~shareholders~~ shareholders or otherwise, despite its efforts to do so. In addition, although the Company ~~projects~~has projected that increase in the commercialization of its technology may provide additional cash flow for operations., ~~The~~it ~~Company~~has ~~entered~~not ~~into~~generated ~~sales~~any ~~contracts~~significant ofnew ~~approximately~~equipment ~~$2,286,000~~sales ~~during~~orders in the ~~year~~ ~~ended~~past ~~December 31, 2015~~year.

The audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
