8.       Commitment and Contingencies

a)   On December 22, 2015, the Company was served notice by an individual claiming that he had received electronic emails recommending the purchase of the Company's common stock. The plaintiff claims that during the period of December 3, 2012 to December 7, 2012, he had received eighteen unsolicited electronic mails in regards to the purchase of the Company's common stock and is seeking damages of $1,000 for each electronic mail he has received, plus $1,700 in attorney fees for a total claim of $19,700. Per the plaintiff's claim, he has served notice to the Company since 2013. However, the Company asserts that they have not received any notices in regards to these claims until September of 2015. The plaintiff presented his case in court on February 19, 2016 and the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff for the full amount of $19,700. As at September 30, 2016, the Company accrued the expense as other loss and has included the liability in accounts payables and accrued liabilities.

b)   On February 2, 2016, the Company and three debt holders entered into a settlement agreement, where the Company agrees to pay $30,000 to the debt holders on or before the third day of each subsequent month until the entire balance is repaid by the Company. Refer to Note 3(a), (b), and (c).

c)   On February 1, 2016, the Company received notice that a third party was seeking compensation for damages as a result of false advertisements made by the Company in regards to the Company's stealth cards. The plaintiff is a manufacturer and distributor of radio frequency identification (RFID) chip protection cards which are in competition with the Company's stealth cards. The Company has filed an answer to the plaintiff's complaint, with denials and affirmative defenses, and is unable to estimate the likelihood of any outcome as at September 30, 2016.

d)   On February 22, 2016, the Company received notice that a consultant was seeking compensation for breach of agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, the parties agreed to equally split any net profits generated from the sale of Stealth cards made by the consultant. The Company asserts that historical sales generated from the sale of the Stealth Cards were not as a result of the consultant's services, and therefore the Company should not be liable for any compensation due to the consultant. The Company has filed its Answer and Affirmative Defenses on July 18, 2016 and has asserted counterclaims against the consultant. The Company is currently awaiting the response from the consultant and is unable to estimate the likelihood of any outcome as at September 30, 2016.
