#### **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

#### **Basis of Presentation**

These financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management 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 amounts ofrevenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

#### **Revenue Recognition**

This revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Tue guidance requires an entity to follow a five step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, ( c) determine the transaction price, ( d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and ( e) recognize revenue when ( or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, an entity may include variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.

All revenues will be recorded as earned when the terms of the agreement are fulfilled. Fees are Based on the terms of the client agreements.

#### **Income Taxes**

Accordingly, the Company has not provided for income taxes.

#### **3. Transactions with Related Parties**

The Company has entered into an Expense Sharing Agreement ("ESA") with TokenSoft Global Markets Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (together, "TokenSoft") and Integrated Management Solutions USA LLC and Integrated Investment Solutions LLC (together "Integrated") whereby TokenSoft and Integrated are to provide office and administrative services, payroll and professional services to the Company.
