The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company experienced a net loss of $492,185 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, had a working capital deficit of $868,332 and an accumulated deficit of $14,625,357 as of September 30, 2022. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and to operate in the normal course of business. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel COVID-19 virus as a global pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States negatively impacted to the Company's ability to secure additional debt or equity funding to support operations in 2020 and 2021. In 2021, the Company raised an aggregate of $560,000 from the sale of 2,240,000 shares of common stock to support current operations and extend research and development of its product line. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in this effort. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds in 2022, it will be forced to severely curtail all operations and research and development activities.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in this report have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the stated periods have been made. Except as described below, these adjustments consist only of normal and recurring adjustments. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's consolidated annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the Company's consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Company's annual report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 16, 2022. Interim results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, are not necessarily indicative of future results for the full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the consolidated accounts of VLS and its wholly owned subsidiary VI. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates included in the financial statements, include useful the life of intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and non-cash equity transactions and stock-based compensation.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021. Cash balances may, at certain times, exceed federally insured limits. If the amount of a deposit at any time exceeds the federally insured amount at a bank, the uninsured portion of the deposit could be lost, in whole or in part, if the bank were to fail.

Intangible Assets

Costs of intangible assets are accounted for through the capitalization of those costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining such assets. Capitalized costs are included in intangible assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company's intangible assets consist of costs incurred in connection with securing an Exclusive Patent License Agreement with The General Hospital Corporation, d/b/a Massachusetts General Hospital ("MGH"), as amended (the "License Agreement"). These costs are being amortized over the term of the License Agreement which is based on the remaining patent life of the related patents being licensed.

The Company reviews these intangible assets for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. In evaluating the future benefit of its intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the intangible assets over the remaining estimated useful life. An impairment loss is recorded if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows.



9





Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that the recorded value may not be recoverable for impairment and recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying values.

Equity Method Investment

The Company accounts for investments in which the Company owns more than 20% or has the ability to exercise significant influence of the investee, using the equity method in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standard Board's (the "FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 323, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method, an investor initially records an investment in the stock of an investee at cost and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor's share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition.

The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income by the investor, and such amount reflects adjustments similar to those made in preparing consolidated statements including adjustments to eliminate intercompany gains and losses, and to amortize, if appropriate, any difference between investor cost and underlying equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment. The investment of an investor is also adjusted to reflect the investor's share of changes in the investee's capital. Dividends received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary, and which should be recognized even though the decrease in value is in excess of what would otherwise be recognized by application of the equity method.

In accordance with ASC 323-10-35-20 through 35-22, the investor ordinarily shall discontinue applying the equity method if the investment (and net advances) is reduced to zero and shall not provide for additional losses unless the investor has guaranteed obligations of the investee or is otherwise committed to provide further financial support for the investee. An investor shall, however, provide for additional losses if the imminent return to profitable operations by an investee appears to be assured. For example, a material, nonrecurring loss of an isolated nature may reduce an investment below zero even though the underlying profitable operating pattern of an investee is unimpaired. If the investee subsequently reports net income, the investor shall resume applying the equity method only after its share of that net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

Equity and cost method investments are classified as investments. The Company periodically evaluates its equity and cost method investments for impairment due to declines considered to be other than temporary. If the Company determines that a decline in fair value is other than temporary, then a charge to earnings is recorded as an impairment loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company's equity method investment consisted of equity owned in Athens Encapsulation Inc. ("AEI"), a Company controlled by former directors of the Company which was given to the Company as part of an investment and restructuring agreement entered into in May 2019. In January 2021, the Company sold its' equity investment in AEI, back to AEI for $100,000, which is presented as other income on the statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2022, the Company did not have any remaining equity investment in AEI. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company's proportionate share of net income was insignificant.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements" defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2022.

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, payables with related parties, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue recognition is accounted for under ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606") and all the related amendments. The core principle of ASC 606 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 company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under U.S. GAAP including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The Company's contracts with customers are generally on a contract and work order basis and represent obligations that are satisfied at a point in time, as defined in the new guidance, generally upon delivery or has services are provided. Accordingly, revenue for each sale is recognized when the Company has completed its performance obligations. Any costs incurred before this point in time, are recorded as assets to be expensed during the period the related revenue is recognized. The Company did not generate any revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 - "Compensation -Stock Compensation," which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under the FASB's Accounting Standards Update ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment.

Research and Development

Costs and expenses that can be clearly identified as research and development are charged to expense as incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred $3,097 and $13,097, respectively, in research and development expenses with a related party. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred $0 and $7,243, respectively, in research and development expenses to a related party.



11





Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at the tax rate expected to be in effect at the time of realization. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates of the date of enactment.

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition issues. Interest and penalties are classified as a component of interest and other expenses. To date, the Company has not been assessed, nor paid, any interest or penalties.

Uncertain tax positions are measured and recorded by establishing a threshold for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Only tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and as-if converted method. As of September 30, 2022, and 2021, the Company's dilutive securities are convertible into 3,396,281 and 23,467,283 shares of common stock, respectively, which are not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.

The following table represents the classes of dilutive securities as of September 30, 2022, and 2021:

SCHEDULE OF ANTIDILUTIVE SECURITIES OF EARNINGS PER SHARE


                                     September 30, 2022       September 30, 2021

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021.

NOTE 4 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company's intangible assets consist of costs incurred in connection with the License Agreement with MGH (See Note 5). The consideration paid for the rights included in the License Agreement was in the form of common stock shares which resulted in MGH receiving approximately 20% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of VI. The estimated fair value of the common stock as of the date of the agreement is being amortized over the term of the License Agreement which is based on the remaining patent life of the related patents being licensed which is approximately 16years.

The Company's intangible assets consisted of the following at September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021:

MGH License Agreement

As discussed in Note 5, the Company executed a License Agreement with MGH. Prior to the first commercial sale, the License Agreement requires the Company to pay MGH a non-refundable annual license fee of $10,000 by June 30, 2022, and on each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date thereafter.

On February 12, 2021, the Company issued 6,000,000 shares of common stock to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, pursuant to the automatic conversion feature of the Series A Certificate of Designation, whereby, the Series A shares are to automatically convert on the one-year anniversary of the Company filing its Registration Statement on Form 10.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company determined that the former Series B Preferred Stockholders, subsequent to all Series B Preferred Stock having previously been converted to shares of common stock in 2021, were owed additional shares of common stock due to an adjustment to the conversion price that occurred as a result of a down round trigger event that occurred in 2019 when the Company sold shares of common stock and a warrant in a private placement at a price of $0.25, which was below the original conversion ratio of the Series B Preferred Stock. Management determined the total additional shares owed to the Preferred B Stockholders to be 1,001,177as a result of the down round trigger. The financial statement impact of this down round trigger was not significant. The shares owed to the Series B Preferred Stockholders due to the 2019 trigger event have been presented on the statement of stockholders' equity retrospectively as common stock to be issued with no impact on total stockholders' deficit. The Company issued the additional shares to the Series B Preferred Stockholders on March 24, 2022.

In July 2022, the Company received proceeds totaling $50,000 and issued 100,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants at $0.50 per share.

Stock Option-Based Compensation Plan

On August 10, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted the Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc., 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The material terms of the 2022 Plan are set forth below:

? The Board or a committee established by the Board will administer the 2022

Plan.

? The total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the

2022 Plan is 3,200,000 shares of Common Stock plus, to the extent the Company

issues new shares of Common Stock other than under the terms of the 2022 Plan

or other than certain Inducement Awards, 3.1% of the shares of Common Stock

issued by the Company in such issuance (or such lower amount as determined by

the Board). As of August 16, 2022, 3,200,000 shares of Common Stock represents

approximately 10.1% of our common stock outstanding. ? Eligible recipients of awards include an employee, director or independent

contractor of the Company who has been selected as an eligible participant by

the Administrator, subject to certain limitations relating to Section 409A of

the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). ? No non-employee director may be granted awards under the 2022 plan during any

calendar year if such awards and cash fees paid for serving as a non-employee

director would exceed $150,000 in the non-employee director's initial year of


  service, or $195,000 in any year thereafter.
? In no event shall the exercise price of an option issued pursuant to the 2022

Plan be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a

share of Common Stock on the date of grant.

The purposes of the Plan are to (i) provide an additional incentive to selected employees, directors, and independent contractors of the Company or its Affiliates whose contributions are essential to the growth and success of the Company, (ii) strengthen the commitment of such individuals to the Company and its Affiliates, (iii) motivate those individuals to faithfully and diligently perform their responsibilities and (iv) attract and retain competent and dedicated individuals whose efforts will result in the long-term growth and profitability of the Company. To accomplish these purposes, the Plan provides that the Company may grant Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Other Stock-Based Awards or any combination of the foregoing.

Stock Option Activity

On August 10, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to issue options to purchase an aggregate of 770,000 shares of common stock to certain consultants, and former directors. The stock options are exercisable at a price of $0.50. The options granted are estimated to have fair market value per share of $0.16. The stock options fully vest after six months from the grant date.

We utilized the Black-Scholes valuation method to recognize compensation expense over the vesting period. The expected life was determined using the simplified method.

The simplified method provided in Securities and Exchange Commission release, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, averages an award's weighted average vesting period and contractual term for "plain vanilla" share options. The expected volatility was estimated by analyzing the historic volatility of similar public biotech companies in an early stage of development. No dividend payouts were assumed as we have not historically paid, and do not anticipate paying, dividends in the foreseeable future. The risk-free rate of return reflects the average interest rate offered for US treasury rates over the expected term of the options.

The option price was set at the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of grant using an actual transactions approach. The actual transactions method considers actual sales of the Company's equity prior to the valuation date. The Company determined the price per share of the most recent private sale of equity to be a more reliable indicator of the Company's fair value rather than the quoted OTC prices, which reflected very low trading volume that subjected the quote price to unusual fluctuations in the stock prices.

The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the equity awards granted were;

As of September 30, 2022, there were 770,000shares of time-based, non-vested stock options that fully vest in February 2023. As of September 30, 2022, there was $82,789of total unrecognized stock-based compensation related to these non-vested stock options.

The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $41,395 and $43,557 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $1,081 and $3,244 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Warrants

On July 14, 2022, the Board authorized and approved to extend the end date of certain warrants issued with common stock purchases at various dates in 2019, by and among the Company and certain investors, pursuant to which the investors had the right to exercise the warrants until July 31, 2022.



21




Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ASC 718-20 Compensation-Stock compensation, which provides for the guidance on the accounting for a modification of the terms or conditions of an equity award, and requires a modification to be treated as an exchange of the original issuance for a new issuance, and any incremental value between the original award and the modified award be recorded.

We utilized a Black-Scholes valuation method to determine any incremental value due to the modification. The inputs used to value the warrant as of the modification date are as follows: SCHEDULE OF STOCK WARRANT VALUATION ASSUMPTIONS



  ? The price of the common stock the Company last raised capital: $0.25
  ? Exercise price of the warrant: $0.50
  ? Life of the warrant: 0.15 years
  ? Risk free return rate: 1.99%
  ? Annualized volatility rate of four comparative companies: 94%


The Company recognized $3,548 in incremental value for the fair market value of the modified warrants over the fair market value of the original warrants. The Company recognized the effect of the excess fair market value as a deemed dividend which reduced the income available to common stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Historical results and trends that might appear in this Quarterly Report should not be interpreted as being indicative of future operations.

Overview

Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc. ("VLS") was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 8, 1997 under the name All Product Distribution Corp. On August 19, 1998, the Company changed its name to Phage Therapeutics International, Inc. On November 13, 2007, the Company changed its name to SSGI, Inc. On December 22, 2017, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") by and among VLS, Michael W. Yurkowsky, ViCapsys, Inc. ("VI") and the shareholders of VI, a private company, VI became a wholly owned subsidiary of VLS. We refer to VLS and VI together as the "Company".

The Company's strategy is to develop and commercialize, on a worldwide basis, various intellectual property rights (patents, patent applications, know how, etc.) relating to a series of encapsulated products that incorporate proprietary derivatives of the chemokine CXCL12 for creating a zone of immuno protection around cells, tissues, organs and devices for therapeutic purposes. The product name VICAPSYN™ is the Company's proprietary product line that is applied to transplantation therapies and related stem-cell applications in the transplantation field.

COVID-19

The coronavirus outbreak ("COVID-19") adversely affected the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on businesses and the economy in the United States is expected to continue to be significant. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will continue to impact businesses and the economy is highly uncertain. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the extent to which its financial condition and results of operation will be affected.

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The spread of COVID-19 coronavirus has caused public health officials to recommend precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus, especially as to travel and congregating in large numbers. In addition, certain states and municipalities have enacted quarantining regulations which severely limit the ability of people to move and travel.

In addition, the Company is uncertain of the full effect the pandemic will have on it for the longer term since the scope and duration of the pandemic is unknown, and evolving factors such as the level and timing of the distribution of efficacious vaccines across the world and the extent of any resurgences of the virus or emergence of new variants of the virus, such as the Delta variant and the Omicron variant, will impact the stability of economic recovery and growth. The Company may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities critical to its business.

Results of Operations - Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022, and 2021

Revenues

The Company did not have any revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021.



23





Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses into four categories: personnel costs, research and development expenses, professional fees, and general and administrative expenses. The Company's total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $145,081 and $492,185 respectively, compared to $111,181 and $233,013, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

The $2,500 monthly increase in Director fees for our CEO commencing in January 2022, resulted in an increase in personnel costs to $30,470 and $91,754 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, from $23,072 and $68,532 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We incurred $3,097 and $13,097 in research and development expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, related to expenses and a non-refundable royalty fee we agreed to pay upon execution of the Eighth Amendment to the License Agreement with MGH which occurred in March 2022, which is a slight increase from $-0- and $7,243 in research in development expenses incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Research and development expenses remained consistently low as the Company continued ongoing financing efforts in the wake of the negative impact of COVID-19, which continued to hinder the Company's ability to raise the additional capital necessary to maintain regular operating activities. The increase in general and administrative costs to $12,257 and $41,210 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, from $8,644 and $26,410 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, was due to expenses incurred operating as a publicly traded entity. The increase in professional fees to $99,257 and $346,124 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, from $79,465 and $130,828 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, was primarily attributable to the legal, accounting, and consulting and investor relations costs incurred in support of the Company's efforts to obtain a listing on a national securities exchange.

Funding Requirements

We anticipate that substantial additional equity or debt financings or funding from collaborative agreements or from foundations, government grants or other sources, will be needed to complete preclinical and animal testing necessary to file an Investigational New Drug Application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and that further funding beyond such amounts will be required to commence trials and other activities necessary to begin the process of development and regulatory approval of a product for the continued growth of the Company. Additional capital will also be required for the clinical development of the recently discovered anti-fibrotic applications and corporate partnerships will be necessary to move Company products into advanced clinical development and commercialization. We also anticipate our cash expenditures will increase as we continue to operate as a publicly traded entity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2022, we had $26,210 of cash on hand and an accumulated deficit of $14,625,358.

We do not believe that we have enough cash on hand to operate our business during the next 12 months. We anticipate we will need to raise an additional $1 million through the issuance of debt or equity securities to sustain base operations during the next 12 months, excluding development work. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of our common stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include conversion discounts or covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.

If we raise additional funds through government or other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, or strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams, products or therapeutic candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

To date, we have financed our operations through our sale of equity and debt securities. Failure to generate revenue or to raise funds could cause us to go out of business, which would result in the complete loss for investors in our Company.

To date, we have generated no revenues, and no substantial revenues are anticipated until we have implemented our full plan of operations. To implement our strategy to grow and expand per our business plan, we intend to generate working capital via a private placement of equity or debt securities, or to secure a loan. If we are unsuccessful in raising capital or securing a loan, we could be required to cease business operations and investors would lose all of their investment.

In January 2021, the Company sold its equity investment in AEI, back to AEI for $100,000, which is included in other income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with select accredited investors in connection with a private offering by the Company to raise a maximum of $1,000,000 through the sale of common stock of the Company at $0.25 per share. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had raised an aggregate amount of $560,000 from the sale of 2,240,000 shares of common stock. The Company did not raise any additional capital during the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2022.

In July 2022, the Company received aggregate proceeds totaling of $50,000 and issued 100,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants at $0.50 per share.

Additionally, we will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. Our management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure our Company is compliant with various regulatory requirements.

This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement our business plan and may impede the speed of our operations.

Contractual Obligations

MGH License Agreement

The Company has executed a License Agreement with MGH. Prior to the first commercial sale, the License Agreement requires the Company to pay MGH a non-refundable annual license fee of $10,000 by June 30, 2022, and on each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date thereafter. The first non-refundable annual license fee was paid on July 1, 2022. Additionally, following the first commercial sale, the License agreement requires the Company to pay MGH a non-refundable annual minimum royalty in the amount of $100,000 per year within sixty days after each annual anniversary of the Effective Date.

The License Agreement also requires VI to pay to MGH a 1% royalty rate on net sales related to the first license sub-field, which is the treatment of T1D. Future sub-fields shall carry a reasonable royalty rate, consistent with industry standards, to be negotiated at the time the first such royalty payment shall become due with respect to the applicable Products and Processes (as defined in the License Agreement).

The License Agreement additionally requires VI to pay to MGH a $1.0 million "success payment" within 60 days after the first achievement of total net sales of Product or Process equal or exceeding $100,000,000 in any calendar year and $4,000,000 within 60 days after the first achievement of total net sales of Product or Process equal to or exceeding $250,000,000 in any calendar year. The Company is also required to reimburse MGH's expenses in connection with the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of all Patent Rights.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate, on an ongoing basis, our estimates and judgments, including those related to the useful life of the assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our consolidated financial statements. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), considers an entity's most critical accounting policies to be those policies that are both most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results of operations and those that require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain at the time of estimation.

We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, require significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 16, 2022.
