Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) As of January 3, 2025, 1,444,968 shares of common stock are owned by Linda Bassani who is the executor of the Dominic Bassani Estate "DB Estate".
(2) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns $12,071.48 of deferred compensation which is convertible $.17/share. The conversion price is calculated by the average market price of the last ten days of the prior month (Dec 2024)
(3) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns the 2015 Replacement Note #2 with a balance of $7906.66 which is convertible into 68,754 shares of common stock at $.115/share. The maturity date of this note is 4/15/2025.
(4) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns the 2015 Replacement Note #1 with a balance of $166,782.66 which is convertible into 277,972 shares of common stock at $.60/share. The maturity date of this note is 4/15/2025.
(5) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns the 2020 Convertible Collateral Note with a balance of $380,337.56 which is convertible into 760,765 shares and 507,371 warrants. The maturity date of this convertible note is 4/15/2025.
(6) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns 325,000 warrants $.75 until 4/15/2025 and Linda Bassani owns 100,000 warrants @ $.75 until 4/15/2025. These warrants carry a potential price adjustment of 75%.
(7) As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate owns 640,000 warrants $.75 until 4/15/2025 and Linda Bassani owns 100,000 warrants @ $.75 until 4/15/2025. These warrants carry a potential price adjustment of 90%.
(8) As of January 3, 2025, Danielle Lominy, the adult daughter of Linda Bassani , no longer resides within Linda Bassani's residence. As a result, the reported Bassani Estate and Linda Bassani's holding are substantially reduced as prior form 4's and other SEC filings included all the securities held (directly and indirectly) by Danielle Lominy. As of January 3, 2025, the DB Estate and Linda Bassani are no longer affiliates of the company as their beneficial ownership has been reduced to lower than 10%. This will be the final filing related to Linda Bassani and the DB Bassani Estate based on the residual beneficial ownership set forth above.

Remarks:
As of January 3, Danielle Lominy's ownership includes 170,000 shares held directly by Ms. Lominy, 1,511,477 shares underlying warrants held by the Danielle Christine Bassani Trust, 400,000 shares owned by the Danielle Bassani Trust, 311,458 shares underlying warrants and 105,000 shares underlying warrants owned jointly with husband and 230,000 shares underlying warrants owned by Danielle Lominy's minor daughter. In addition, Danielle is the 50% beneficial owner of the Dominic Bassani Irrevocable Trust ("2019 Trust") which owns 3,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock and, as a result Danielle Lominy is the beneficial owner of 1,500,000 shares underlying exercise of the warrants. Additionally, the 2019 Trust owns $459,277.02 principal amount of the Company's Adjusted 2020 Convertible Obligation ("CV Obligation") which is convertible @ $.0953 into 4,819,277 shares and 3,214,458 warrants. As a result, Danielle Lominy is the beneficial owner of 2,49,639 shares underlying conversion of the CV Obligation and 1,607,229 shares underlying the warrants issuable on conversion of the CV Obligation. See Danielle Lominy's Form 4 filing on January 22, 2025 for changes in ownership.
