General Overview

Eco Tek 360, Inc. (“ECTX”, ‘We” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 25, 2005 as "Premier Publishing Group, Inc.". Originally formed as a publishing company, the Company ceased its publishing operations in or around 2007.

After ceasing the publishing operations, the Company’s operations consisted solely of utilizing the expertise of our Board Members and outside agents to further the efforts our advisory services business plan through a wholly-owned subsidiary known as Trident Merchant Group, Inc.

In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company became involved in the manufacturing and global distribution of ladies’ apparel. During the second quarter, 2014 the Company formed Leading Edge Fashions, LLC of which it controlled 51% of the membership interest. The non-controlling interest is recorded in the stockholders' deficit section. Effective December 31, 2014 the Company's Board of Directors determined it was in the best interest of the Company to discontinue the operations of Leading Edge Fashions, LLC, and in 2014 the Company stopped developing a footprint in the apparel business due to cash restraints and logistics and ceased agreements with all third-parties to distribute their products into SE Asia and China.

Trident has also ceased operations to concentrate on the opportunities related to rejuvenating fibers and re-purposing them into finished products.

The Company created a new limited liability company, Pure361, LLC ("Pure361") in May 2015 for the purpose of operating the portion of the Company's business that is involved with the collection, rejuvenation and manufacturing of garments and other accessories for the uniform marketplace that serves the hospitality, food service, medical, manufacturing, education, military, transportation and other commercial uniform industries. The Company owns 51% of Pure361. Pure361 entered into a license agreement with Pure System International Ltd. ("Pure"), the minority owner of Pure 361, related to potential future operations in which Pure361 was granted the exclusive license to use certain licensed intellectual property related to the manufacturing of uniforms from recyclable waste. Pure361 has had no operations to date, nor did it have any assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 respectively.

The Company created a new wholly owned subsidiary, Progressive Fashions Inc. ("PFI") in February 2016 for the purpose of designing, producing and marketing the EMME® Activewear Collection. On June 5, 2017 the Company and True Beauty, LLC (the company that controls the EMME® trademark) terminated the license agreement in order to focus resources on the Rejuvenated Uniform Segment. PFI has generated no revenue to date, nor did it have any assets or liabilities  as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 respectively.

We have never declared bankruptcy or been in receivership. We have earned minimal revenues and have limited cash on hand. We have sustained losses since inception and have primarily relied upon the sale of our securities and loans from related parties for funding.

Our Current Business

Eco Tek 360, Inc. is currently in the development stage. The Company’s business plan is to operate a fiber rejuvenation technology company. It plans on offering branded fabrics, apparel and uniforms to the corporate, hotel, hospital and military markets. We will achieve this by utilizing a patented and proprietary process for rejuvenating textile waste into high quality fabrics and apparel.

The Rejuvenated Uniform Segment

In April 2015, we entered into a joint venture and license agreement with Pure Systems International, Ltd. to produce and market garments and other accessories for the commercial uniform marketplace and other market verticals by utilizing Pure Systems International, Ltd.’s patented processes to up-cycle pre-consumer textile waste into reusable fiber of equal or better quality than the original fabric. (the “Rejuvenated Fiber”)

In May of 2015, the Company created a new limited liability company, Pure361, LLC (“Pure361”) of which the Company owns 51% and Pure Systems International, Ltd. owns 49%. Pure361 has the exclusive licensee to use Pure System International Ltd.’s patented Rejuvenated Fiber in conjunction with the commercial uniform marketplace and other market verticals.

Ms Joy Nunn, the company’s former CTO and Board member resigned as of February 14, 2017, but the company still maintains a license with Pure System International, Ltd.

To further strengthen its capabilities in the Rejuvenated Uniform segment the Company has identified alternative technologies to those under license from Pure Systems. The company will be developing customers using this alternative technology by working with equipment vendors and toll manufacturers to produce sales samples.

The Rejuvenated Cardboard Segment

In conjunction with its focus on rejuvenated technologies, the Company is exploring the possibility of also manufacturing a rejuvenated cardboard product, and is in the early stages of exploring this potential opportunity.

Competition

In the uniform and related products segment, we compete with many firms, including corporations with large divisions, many of these companies have great financial, technical or marketing resources, longer operating histories, greater brand recognition or larger customer bases than we do and may be able to respond more effectively to changing business and economic conditions than we can. The nature and degree of competition varies with the customer and the market. Industry statistics are not available.

Competitive pricing may require us to reduce our future prices, which would impact future profitability or result in lost sales. Our competitors, many of whom have greater resources than we do, may be better able to withstand these price reductions and lost sales.

Seasonality

We do not have a seasonal business cycle.

Employees

We have no employees. Our officers and directors furnish their time to the development of the Company at no cost and intend to do whatever work is necessary in order to continue to generate revenues. We do not foresee hiring any employees in the near future.

Research and Development

We have not incurred any research and development expenditures over the last two fiscal years.

Intellectual Property

We do not currently own any intellectual property.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to repay or settle its current indebtedness, generate positive cash flow from an operating company, and/or raise capital through equity and debt financing or other means on desirable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are required or if the funds cannot be obtained on favorable terms, management may be required to restructure the Company or cease operations.

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions and apply judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the financial statements are prepared and actual results could differ from our estimates and such differences could be material. Due to the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. On a regular basis, we review our critical accounting policies and how they are applied in the preparation our financial statements. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as included in this Annual Report, for disclosures regarding the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates.

Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of common stock and options issued as stock based compensation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our financial statements. The Company's management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on our company's financial statements.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2017

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Eco Tek 360, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated in Nevada on March 25, 2005. As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had 400,000,000 shares of authorized common stock.

PFI has had no operations to date nor did it have assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2016 and 2016, respectively.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $30,578,048 and $29,730,893 as of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which include net losses of $847,155 and $819,015 for the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.  Consequently, the aforementioned items raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management plans to raise additional debt or equity and continue to settle obligations by issuing stock. Management plans to continue to raise additional debt and equity until the Company has positive cash flows from an operating company.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to repay or settle its current indebtedness, generate positive cash flow from an operating company, and/or raise capital through equity and debt financing or other means on desirable terms.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 2 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Trident Merchant Group, Inc. and Progressive Fashions Inc., and its majority owned subsidiaries, Leading Edge Fashion, LLC and Pure361, LLC which are 51% owned.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. As noted above in Note 1, our 51% owned subsidiaries, Pure361 and Leading Edge Fashions, LLC, had no operations, assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2017 or 2016. Because of this, a non-controlling interest is not reflected in these financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported consolidated net (loss).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and investments in money market funds. The Company considers all highly-liquid instruments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of replacements and major improvements are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense is provided primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which is seven years. Depreciation expense amounted to $380 and $379 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Prepaid interest and deposits 

Prepaid interest and deposits consist of prepaid consulting fees, debt discounts, amounts paid for deposits on property, plant and equipment and other prepaid items. Prepaid interest is amortized over the life of the related liability.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue for the women's fashion division will be recognized at the point-of-sale for retail store sales, net of estimated customer returns. Revenue will be recognized at the completion of a job or service for the consulting division. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for its consulting service accounts receivable, which management reviews on a regular basis and believes is sufficient to cover potential credit losses and billing adjustments. Deposits for consulting services are recognized as a sale upon completion of service. 

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740 "Income Taxes." Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management's view it is more likely than not that such deferred tax asset will be unable to be utilized.

The Company adopted certain provisions under ASC Topic 740, which provide interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Effective with the Company's adoption of these provisions, interest related to the unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in the financial statements as a component of income taxes.

In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Company could incur income taxes, the Company would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Reserves for uncertain tax positions would be recorded if the Company determined it is probable that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions that would result in the Company having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Company's tax returns are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities for the years ended 2006 through 2017.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

ASC Topic 360 (formerly FASB issued Statement No. 144), "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("FAS 144"), clarifies the accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of, including the disposal of business segments and major lines of business.  Long-lived assets are reviewed when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable.  When necessary, impaired assets are written down to their estimated fair value based on the best information available. No impairment was necessary as of December 31, 2017, or December 31, 2016.

Stock-based Compensation

We account for stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant, and recognize compensation over the service-period that they are expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated value of the portion of a stock-based award that is ultimately expected to vest, taking into consideration estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of other comparative securities, equal to the weighted average life of the options. The estimate of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent that actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, such differences are accounted for as a cumulative adjustment to compensation expenses and recorded in the period that estimates are revised.

Use of Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of stock based awards issued.

Fair Value

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820") establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1—Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs;

Level 2—Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

The carrying amounts of cash, accrued compensation, accounts payable and other liabilities, accrued interest payable, and short-term portion of notes payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including cash, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term debt, approximates the fair value of these instruments. These financial instruments generally expose the Company to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry interest rates that approximate market.  The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the FDIC.  At December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had no amounts in excess of the FDIC limit.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, which amends ASC Topic 842. Among other things, the new standard requires us to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability on our balance sheet for leases. It also changes the presentation and timing of lease-related expenses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this guidance may have on its financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and disclosures.

In December 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-20, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which amends ASC Topic 606. The standard eliminates the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace​s it with a principle​s-based approach for revenue recognition​with disclosures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this guidance may have on its financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and disclosures.

Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer (our chief executive officer), we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

Management's Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for our company.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our president and our chief executive officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2017, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the evaluation date due to the factors stated below.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of evaluation date and identified the following material weaknesses:

Insufficient Resources: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.

Inadequate Segregation Of Duties: We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.

Lack Of Audit Committee: We do not have a functioning audit committee resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel and (3) may consider appointing an audit committee members in the future.

Management, including our president and our chief executive officer, have discussed the material weakness noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

None.

Employment Agreements

Other than as set forth below, we have no formal employment agreements with any of our directors or officers.

OnDecember 30, 2016 we entered into an employment agreement with Paul Serbiak, our CEO and Treasurer, wherein Mr. Serbiak will begin to earn a salary upon our company receiving funding from a potential private placement, while also being granted both vested and incentive-based stock options. Specifically, the base salary for Mr. Serbiak shall initially be set at $90,000 per year, but has the potential to incrementally increase up to $200,000 per year based on the Company achieving certain revenue goals. Moreover, Mr. Serbiak’s contract provides for a minimum annual bonus of thirty-percent(30%) of his base salary, but gives the Company the discretion to award an annual bonus of up to three-hundred-percent(300%) of his base salary. As a signing bonus, Mr. Serbiak received 1,500,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock that are exercisable for a period of ten years at the market close price on December 31, 2016. In addition, Mr. Serbiak’s contract provides for up to ten incentive stock option awards of 1% of the shares of common stock outstanding $1,000,000 in net income received by the Company over the next ten years. Such options would be exercisable at the closing bid price for the ten days preceding the Company’s achievement of each award milestone.

On February 14, 2017, we entered into an employment agreement with Christopher Giordano, our President, wherein Mr. Giordano will begin to earn a salary upon our company receiving funding from a potential private placement, while also being granted both vested and incentive-based stock options. Specifically, his salary shall not be earned or payable until such time that the Company raises at least $2,000,000 in its upcoming private placement. The base salary for Mr. Giordano shall initially be set at $90,000 per year, but has the potential to incrementally increase up to $200,000 per year based on the Company achieving certain revenue goals. Moreover, Mr. Giordano’s contract provides for a minimum annual bonus of thirty-percent(30%) of his base salary, but gives the Company the discretion to award an annual bonus of up to two-hundred-percent(200%) of his base salary. As a signing bonus, Mr. Giordano received 250,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock that are exercisable for a period of five years at a strike price of $0.50 per share. In addition, Mr. Giordano’s contract provides for up to ten incentive stock option awards of 0.75% of the shares of common stock outstanding per $1,000,000 in net income received by the Company over the next ten years. Such options would be exercisable at the closing bid price for the ten days preceding the Company’s achievement of each award milestone.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of our directors, executive officers and proposed directors or executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our shares of common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5, respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by our company, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no Form 5s were required for those persons, we believe that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners as well as our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners of our subsidiaries were complied with, with the exception of the following:

(1) The insider has yet to file a Form 3, Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership.

(2) The insider has yet to file a Form 4, Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership.

Code of Ethics 

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of the Company’s directors, officers and employees including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions.  Our Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote: (i) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;  (ii) full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure  in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the SEC and in our other public communications;  (iii) compliance with applicable  governmental laws, rules and regulations; (iv) the prompt internal reporting of violations of our Code of Ethics to an appropriate  person or persons identified in the code; and (v) accountability for adherence to our Code of Ethics.  We will provide any person without charge a copy of our code of ethics upon receiving a written request which may be mailed to our office at 50 Division Street, Suite 501, Somerville, New Jersey 08876. 

Nomination Process

As of December 31, 2017, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If shareholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.

Audit Committee

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We do not have a standing audit committee as we currently have limited working capital and minimal revenues.  Should we be able to raise sufficient funding to execute our business plan, we will form an audit, compensation committee and other applicable committees utilizing our directors’ expertise.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We do not currently have a director who is qualified to act as the head of the audit committee.

Pension, Retirement or Similar Benefit Plans 

There are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement or similar benefits for directors or executive officers. We have no material bonus or profit sharing plans pursuant to which cash or non-cash compensation is or may be paid to our directors or executive officers, except that stock options may be granted at the discretion of the board of directors or a committee thereof.

Indebtedness of Directors, Senior Officers, Executive Officers and Other Management

None of our directors or executive officers or any associate or affiliate of our company during the last two fiscal years, is or has been indebted to our company by way of guarantee, support agreement, letter of credit or other similar agreement or understanding currently outstanding.

The following table indicates the number of shares of both our common and preferred stock that were beneficially owned as of March 27, 2018, by (1) each person known by us to be the owner of more than 5% of our outstanding shares of preferred stock, (2) our directors, (3) our executive officers, and (4) our directors and executive officers as a group. In general, "beneficial ownership" includes those shares a director or executive officer has sole or shared power to vote or transfer (whether or not owned directly) and rights to acquire common stock through the exercise of stock options or warrants exercisable currently or that become exercisable within 60 days. Except as indicated otherwise, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them. We based our calculation of the percentage owned on 19,171,247 beneficially owned shares of common stock outstanding as of March 27, 2018, and 200,000 beneficially owned shares of preferred stock outstanding on March 27, 2018. The address of each director and executive officer listed below is c/o Eco Tek 360, Inc., 50 Division Street, Suite 501, Somerville, New Jersey.

* Represents less than 1%

(1)        Christopher Giordano beneficially owns 200,000 shares of Class B Preferred Stock, which is 100% percent of the outstanding shares in the class.  The Class B Preferred shareholders vote together with the common stock as a single class and the holders of Class B Preferred are entitled to 10,000 votes per share.

Changes in Control

We are unaware of any contract or other arrangement or provisions of our Articles or Bylaws the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of our company. There are not any provisions in our Articles or Bylaws, the operation of which would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our company.

Except as disclosed herein, no director, executive officer, shareholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction since the year ended December 31, 2017, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last three completed fiscal years.

Director Independence

We currently act with six directors, Frederick Andrieni, Michael A. Breen, Christopher H. Giordano, Simon Graj, Paul Serbiak and Scott Todd.

We have determined that Frederick Andrieni, Michael A. Breen, Simon Graj, and Scott Todd are independent directors, as that term is used in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Rules of National Association of Securities Dealers.

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We currently do not have nominating, compensation committees or committees performing similar functions. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors.

From inception to present date, we believe that the members of our audit committee and the board of directors have been and are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and for fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:

Our board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.
