Overview


BioPower Corporation ("BC") was incorporated in the State of Florida on September 13, 2010. On January 5, 2011, we re-domiciled to Nevada and formed BioPower Operations Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("BioPower," "we, "us," "our" or the "Company"). On January 6, 2011, the shareholders of BC contributed their shares of BC to BioPower Operations Corporation and BC became a wholly owned subsidiary of BioPower Operations Corporation.

From 2017 until the first quarter of the fiscal year ending November 30, 2022, the Company was a shell company, as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1924, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). During the quarter ending February 28, 2022, we commenced operations and accordingly, we ceased to be a shell company.

On October 7, 2021, we filed a certificate of amendment to our amended and restated articles in order to change our corporate name from BioPower Operations Corporation to HyFi Corp (the "Name Change"). The Name Change is subject to clearance by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company has been in communication with FINRA regarding the Name Change and expects the Name Change to be effective in the near future.

HyFi Asset Purchase Agreement

On June 29, 2021, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "APA") with Rafael Ben Shaya, Troy MacDonald, Adam Benchaya, Thomas Perez, Tom Saban and Edouard Pouchoy (collectively, Messrs. Ben Shaya, MacDonald, Benchaya, Perez, Saban and Pouchoy are referred to herein as the "Sellers").

Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the Company agreed to acquire from the Sellers, and the Sellers agreed to sell to the Company, certain assets comprised of the goodwill, intellectual property, business proprietary know-how and trade secrets, intangible property and other assets of Sellers' business with respect to HyFi, and any and all rights of Sellers in and to the foregoing (the "Assets"), and certain governance/utility virtual tokens (collectively, the "HyFi Tokens") expected to be used as a means of payment on the HyFi Platform, as hereinafter defined (the "Acquisition"). The "HyFi Platform" means a decentralized finances ("DeFi") exchange marketplace using blockchain platform technology. The DeFi principles are based on an ecosystem of financial services utilizing tokenization and non-fungible tokens ("NFTs") for production, licenses, projects and commodities across vertical and horizontal markets.

In addition, the Sellers agreed to (i) pay to the Company, on the closing date of the Acquisition, $300,000 (the "Cash Consideration"), and (ii) transfer to the Company, on the closing date of the Acquisition, 400,000,000 HyFi Tokens (the "HyFi Token Consideration"). The Company intends to use the Cash Consideration to bring the Company into a fully reporting status with the Securities and Exchange Commission and for public company operating expenses.

Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the Company agreed to file with the State of Nevada the certificate of designation for the Series C preferred stock on or before the date that is 60 calendar days after the closing of the Acquisition. In exchange for the sale of the Assets and the Cash Consideration, the Company agreed to issue to the Sellers an aggregate of 900,000 Series C preferred shares within 30 calendar days after the State of Nevada provides written confirmation of filing of the certificate of designation for the Series C preferred stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the APA, the parties agreed that the Series C preferred stock will have the following terms, among others:





  1. Authorized Shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The number of authorized
     shares of Series C preferred stock will be 900,000.

  2. Conversion. Subject to the other terms and conditions in the certificate of
     designation, a Series C preferred stock holder will have the right from time
     to time and at any time following the date that is one year after the date on
     the signature page of the certificate of designations to convert each
     outstanding share of Series C preferred stock into 450 shares of Company
     common stock. Based on the number of shares of common stock issued and
     outstanding as of June 29, 2021, if all of the 900,000 shares of Series C
     preferred stock are issued and subsequently converted, the holders of the
     converted stock will hold 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of common
     stock.

  3. Voting. Except as otherwise set forth in the certificate of designation, each
     share of Series C preferred stock will, on any matter submitted to the
     holders of Company common stock, or any class thereof, for a vote, vote
     together with the common stock, or any class thereof, as applicable, as one
     class on such matter, and each share of Series C preferred stock will have
     450 votes.

  4. Dividends. The Series C preferred stock is not entitled to receive dividends
     or distributions.



The Acquisition closed on June 29, 2021 (the "Closing Date"). On the Closing Date, the Sellers delivered the Cash Consideration and the HyFi Token Consideration. The Company has complied with and completed all terms of the APA.

Series A Preferred Stock Redemption Agreement & Senior Promissory Note

Also on the Closing Date, the Company and China Energy Partners, LLC ("CEP") entered into a share redemption agreement (the "Redemption Agreement"), dated as of June 29, 2021, pursuant to which the Company redeemed one share of the Company's Series A preferred stock from CEP (the "Series A Share"). On the Closing Date, as provided in the Redemption Agreement, the Company issued to CEP a senior promissory note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $1,000,000. The Series A Share will be held in escrow by an attorney designated by CEP (the "Escrow Agent"), and the CEP will designate such Escrow Agent within 30 calendar days after the Closing Date. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) occurs under the Note, then the Company will direct the Escrow Agent to release the Series A Share to CEP; provided, however, that CEP will also retain all rights and privileges under the Note (and the Company will remain bound to all obligations under Note) even if the Series A Share is required to be released by the Escrow Agent to CEP as provided in the Redemption Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, CEP will regain all rights, title, and interest in and to the Series A Share upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Note, regardless of the amount of the outstanding balance owed under the Note at the time of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Note.

HyFi Platform


We are a U.S.-based fintech company that has developed and owns an innovative CeDeFi blockchain technology called "HyFi". We license, operate and enable tokenized economies for various DeFi marketplaces and intend to utilize our technology for centralized finances with our membership programs and commodity exchanges with third parties. We intend that the DeFi marketplaces can be used to offer NFTs, initial license offerings ("ILOs"), bridge loan offerings ("BLOs"), pre-special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC") and pre-initial public offering ("IPO") funding, and CeDeFi commodities exchanges and membership programs.

The HyFi technology is also a candidate infrastructure for use in the metaverse and play-to-earn GameFi industry. HyFi technology allows users to securely own assets or items and move them across different platforms without the need for a central party's permission. The HyFi technology is expected to allow for transparent trading of decentralized assets like NFTs, other token types and digital assets. The DeFi principles are based on the creation of an innovative ecosystem of financial services accessible to anyone with internet access.

The HyFi token is featured on the HyFi Platform as the governance token. The HyFi token may also be used as a payment token for transaction fees on the HyFi Platform and for membership. The HyFi ecosystem is built on a combination of tokens to support its economy.

Proposed HyFi DeFi and CeDeFi Marketplace Types

Utilizing our DeFi blockchain technology, we are developing various proposed DeFi marketplaces and are in discussions with others for possible uses such as:

1. NFT Marketplace for ILOs. Project developers and technology companies in the


    areas of renewable energy, environmental, agri-food and other important
    markets can raise money by offering licenses to investors seeking license fee
    income through tokenized technology licenses and projects via NFTs. We intend
    to also provide access to related off-take commodity supply contracts via
    tokenized smart contracts.



2. BLOs for Businesses. Investors will be able to purchase a fractionalized


    interest in an income return for the BLOs.



3. Pre-IPO and Pre-SPAC Market Offerings. We expect that investors will be able

to purchase a fractionalized interest in an income return and the options for

shares of stock from IPO and SPAC pre-public offerings.






27





4. Traditional NFT Marketplace. We expect that we will provide a traditional NFT


    marketplace for offerings focused on appreciating one-of-a-kind assets such as
    artwork, collectibles, memorabilia, jewelry, gemstones and other one-of-a-kind
    appreciating assets.



5. CeDeFi Exchanges. CeDeFi exchanges, such as trading commodities and tokens,


    and membership programs are under discussion for a subsequent launch, using
    the HyFi blockchain technology and ecosystem.



6. Metaverse & GameFi. We intend to supply DeFi infrastructure, including


    marketplaces and token economies.




Going Concern



Our financial statements accompanying this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. We have a minimal operating history and minimal revenues or earnings from operations. We have no significant assets or financial resources. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues for the immediate future.

There is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next 12 months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenses. We must raise cash from sources other than revenues generated, such as from the proceeds of loans, public or private equity sales, and/or advances from related parties. There is no guarantee that any loans will be received, any equity sales will be made, and/or any related parties will advance funds to us or that such funds will be available on favorable terms.





Plan of Operation


We were dormant from February 2017 to June 29, 2021.

During the quarter ending February 28, 2022, we commenced operations and accordingly, we ceased to be a shell company. In October 2021, we launched the demo HyFi Platform. We have also been working on developing and defining our business model and SEC regulatory compliance details for the launch of the complete NFT license marketplace with payment systems. We have also focused on completing the technology customizations with preferred vendor partners for our full NFT ILO marketplace launch.

We are in discussions with several companies:

? regarding listing on the NFT ILO marketplace,

? listing their products on a potential new HyFi traditional NFT marketplace, and

? starting other marketplaces using our CeDeFi blockchain technology.

The Company has also been in discussions with various companies in energy and energy related sectors and other sectors such as agri-foods and e-sports, that have expressed interest in listing their NFTs on one of the NFT marketplaces. At the same time, we are working with our preferred partner network vendors to build out the NFT marketplaces. We are also in initial discussions with investment groups regarding possible joint ventures, strategic alliances and/or licensing arrangements for our CeDeFi blockchain technology to create new marketplaces.

There can be no assurance that any of the above parties will reach an agreement and if they do reach an agreement, what the terms of that agreement would be. There can be no assurance that any of the above discussions will lead to customers or revenue.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business plans or operations. We have generated minimal revenue from the sale of HyFi payment/utility tokens since inception. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to the price and cost increases in supplies and services.

If we are unable to meet our needs for cash from either our operations, or possible alternative sources, then we may be unable to continue, develop, or expand our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.





Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Our company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
