The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of OriginClear, Inc. (the “Company”) (formerly OriginOil, Inc.) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization
of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying condensed financial statements
do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s
revenue is not yet sufficient to cover its operating expenditures and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern
and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. Management
believes the existing shareholders, the prospective new investors, current and future sales will provide the additional cash needed
to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core business operations. No
assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory
to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations,
in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICES
|
This summary of significant
accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial
statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently
applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of OriginClear, Inc. and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Progressive Water Treatment,
Inc. (“PWT”) and OriginClear Technology Limited. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated
upon consolidation of these entities.
Loss per Share Calculations
Basic loss per share calculations
are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares available.
Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include
securities or other contracts to issue common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued
and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
The Company has excluded 3,714,637
shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding stock options, 40,931,531 shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding
warrants, shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding convertible debt of $3,543,068 and shares of common stock issuable
pursuant to outstanding convertible preferred stock for the three months ended March 31, 2018, because their impact on the loss
per share is anti-dilutive.
The Company has excluded 3,697,495
shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding stock options, 506,026 shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding
warrants, shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding convertible debt of $3,867,068 and shares of common stock
issuable pursuant to outstanding convertible preferred stock for the three months ended March 31, 2017, because their impact on
the loss per share is anti-dilutive.
Work-in-Process
The Company recognizes as an
asset the accumulated costs for work-in-process on projects expected to be delivered to customers. Work in Process includes the
cost price of materials and labor related to the construction of equipment to be sold to customers.

Use of 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, 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 estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s impairments
and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on percentage of completion type contracts, allowances for uncollectible
accounts, warranty reserves, inventory valuation, debt beneficial conversion features, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances
and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in 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 under different assumptions or conditions.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues
stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.
The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided
by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over
the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance
with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based
upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at
which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally
are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance
requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded
in the period of the measurement date.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when services
are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss
have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.
Revenues and related costs on construction contracts are recognized as the performance obligations for
work are satisfied over time in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers. Under ASC 606, revenue and associated profit, will be recognized as the customer obtains control of the goods and
services promised in the contract (i.e., performance obligations). All un-allocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are
charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss
as it is determined.
Revisions in cost and profit estimates
during the course of the contract are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts which require the revision, become
known. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes
in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final
contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.
Contract receivables are recorded
on contracts for amounts currently due based upon progress billings, as well as retention, which are collectible upon completion
of the contracts. Accounts payable to material suppliers and subcontractors are recorded for amounts currently due based upon work
completed or materials received, as are retention due subcontractors, which are payable upon completion of the contract. General
and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred and are not allocated to contract costs.
Contract Receivable
The Company bills its customers
in accordance with contractual agreements. The agreements generally require billing to be on a progressive basis as work is completed.
Credit is extended based on evaluation of clients financial condition and collateral is not required. The Company maintains an
allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that may arise if any customer is unable to make required payments. Management
performs a quantitative and qualitative review of the receivables past due from customers on a monthly basis. The Company records
an allowance against uncollectible items for each customer after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted, and the
potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $6,996 and $6,996 as of March
31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The net contract receivable balance was $432,148 and $490,441 as of March 31, 2018
and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments,
requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate
that value. As of March 31, 2018, the balances reported for cash, contract receivables, cost in excess of billing, prepaid expenses,
accounts payable, billing in excess of cost, and accrued expenses approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.
We adopted ASC Topic 820 for
financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for
measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements.
Fair value is defined 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 Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring
fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
|
●
|
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
|
|
●
|
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted
prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active
markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
|
|
●
|
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
|
The following table presents
certain investments and liabilities of the Company’s financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s balance
sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2018.

Segment Reporting
The Company’s business
currently operates in one segment based upon the Company’s organizational structure and the way in which the operations are
managed and evaluated.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2016-2, which creates ASC Topic 842, “Leases.” This update increases transparency and comparability among organizations
by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.
This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We are evaluating what impact,
if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures.
In August 2017, FASB issued
accounting standards update ASU-2017-12, “D” (Topic 815) – “Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging
Activities”, to require an entity to present the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same statement line item
in which the earnings effect of the hedged item is reported. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods with the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early
adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the update. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the
adoption of ASU 2017-12 on the Company’s financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB
issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and
create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Under ASC
606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized at an amount that
reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services. In addition, ASC 606 requires
disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
The ASC is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has adopted ASC 606 beginning on January
1, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s revenue recognition policies. See
Note 7 for additional disclosures in accordance with the new revenue recognition standard.
Management reviewed currently
issued pronouncements during the period ended March 31, 2018, and does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.
Preferred Stock
Series B convertible preferred stock (“Series
B Preferred Stock”)
On October 1, 2015, the Company
filed a Certificate of Designation for Series B preferred stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada authorizing 10,000 shares
of preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock which were issued to a shareholder of PWT in connection with a share exchange agreement,
dated October 1, 2015, by and between PWT and the Company. One third (1/3) of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock received by
the holder may be converted into common stock beginning one (1) year after the first date on which a share of Series B Preferred
Stock was issued (the “Original Issue Date); one third (1/3) may be converted beginning two (2) years after the Original
Issue Date; and the remaining one third (1/3) may be converted beginning three years after the Original Issue Date. The number
of shares of common stock issuable for each share of converted Series B Preferred Stock shall be calculated by dividing the stated
value by the market price, with the market price being the average of the closing trade prices of the twenty-five (25) days prior
to the date of the conversion notice. On August 12, 2016, the agreement was amended to include make-good shares. Upon any conversion,
the conversion price shall be the lower of $1.05 or the price of the Company’s common stock calculated using the average
closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the last three (3) trading days prior to the date of conversion, provided,
however, if the average closing price is less than $0.35 per share, the adjusted conversion price shall be $0.35 per share. The
conversion price is subject to adjustment in the case of reverse splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and the like. In addition,
the conversion price is subject to certain full ratchet anti-dilution protection. Accordingly, the Series B Preferred Stock is
valued under the provision of ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, because the conversion feature of the preferred stock was
not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The Series B Preferred
Stock shall have the rights, preferences and privileges as set forth in the exchange agreement. As of March 31, 2018, there are
3,333 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding.

CAPITAL STOCK (Continued)

Series C preferred stock
(“Series C Preferred Stock”)
On March 14, 2017, the Company
filed a Certificate of Designation for its Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada (the “Certificate
of Designation”) designating 1,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock. The shares of Series
C Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.0001 per share. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock do not have a dividend rate or
liquidation preference and are not convertible into shares of common stock.
For so long as any shares of
the Series C Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, shall have voting
power equal to 51% of the total vote (representing a super majority voting power) on all shareholder matters of the Company. Such
vote shall be determined by the holder(s) of a majority of the then issued and outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock.
The
shares of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be automatically redeemed by the Company at their par value on the first to occur
of the following triggering events: (i) on the date that Mr. Eckelberry ceases, for any reason, to serve as officer, director or
consultant of the Company, or (ii) on the date that the Company’s shares of common stock first trade on any national securities
exchange provided that the listing rules of any such exchange prohibit preferential voting rights of a class of securities of the
Company, or listing on any such national securities exchange is conditioned upon the elimination of the preferential voting rights
of the Series C Preferred Stock set forth in the Certificate of Designation.
Additionally, the Company is
prohibited from adopting any amendments to the Company’s Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, making any changes
to the Certificate of Designation establishing the Series C Preferred Stock, or effecting any reclassification of the Series C
Preferred Stock, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock. However,
the Company may, by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, make
technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes to such Certificate of Designation that do not, individually or in the
aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock.
On March 14, 2017, the Company
entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which the Company sold 1,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock to the
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Director, T. Riggs Eckelberry.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (Continued)
|
On various dates, the Company
issued unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”), that matured during the period and were extended sixty
(60) days from the effective date of each Note. The Notes bear interest at 10% per annum. The Notes may be converted into shares
of the Company’s common stock at conversion prices ranging from the lesser of $2.10 to $4.90 (subject to adjustment for stock
splits, dividends, combinations and other similar transactions) or 50% of the lowest trade price on any trade day following issuance
of the Notes. In addition, for as long as the Notes or other convertible notes in effect between the purchaser and the Company
are outstanding, if the Company issues any security with terms more favorable than the terms of the Notes or such other convertible
notes or a term was not similarly provided to the purchaser of the Notes or such other convertible notes, then such more favorable
or additional term shall, at the purchaser’s option, become part of the Notes and such other convertible notes. The conversion
feature of the Notes was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion
features of the Notes. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company issued 7,442,162 shares of common stock, upon
conversion of $50,000 in principal, plus accrued interest of $16,979, with a fair value loss on settlement of $126,330. As of March
31, 2018, the Notes had an aggregate remaining balance of $1,436,000.
As of March 31, 2018, certain
unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “OID Notes”) had an aggregate remaining principal balance of $184,124,
plus accrued interest of $13,334. The OID Notes included an original issue discount and one time interest, which has been fully
amortized. The OID Notes matured on December 31, 2017, and were extended through June 30, 2018. The OID Notes were convertible
into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price initially of $15.31. After an amendment to the OID Notes,
the conversion price changed to the lesser of $2.80 per share, or b) fifty percent (50%) of the lowest trade price of common stock
recorded since the original effective date of this note, or c) the lowest effective price per share granted to any person or entity
after the effective date. The conversion feature of the OID Notes was considered a derivative in accordance with current
accounting guidelines, because of the reset conversion features of the OID Notes.
The Company issued various,
unsecured convertible promissory notes (together, the “May 2016 Notes”), on various dates ending on May 19, 2016. The
May 2016 Notes matured and were extended from the date of each tranche through maturity dates ending on May 19, 2020. The May 2016
Notes bear interest at 10% per annum. The May 2016 Notes may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at conversion
prices ranging from the lesser of $0.70 to $2.80 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, combinations and other similar
transactions) or 50% of the lowest trade price on any trade day following issuance of the May 2016 Notes. The conversion
feature of the May 2016 Notes was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset
conversion features of the May 2016 Notes. The remaining balance of the May 2016 Notes as of March 31, 2018, was $1,325,000.
The Company issued a convertible
note (“Dec 2015 Note”) in exchange for an accounts payable in the amount of $432,048, which could be converted into
shares of the Company’s common stock after December 31, 2015. The Dec 2015 Note was accounted for under ASC 470, whereby,
a beneficial conversion feature was recorded at time of issuance. The Dec 2015 Note did not meet the criteria of a derivative,
and was accounted for as a beneficial conversion feature, which was amortized over the life of the Dec 2015 Note and recognized
as interest expense in the financial statements. On January 1, 2016, the Dec 2015 Note met the criteria of a derivative and was
accounted for under ASC 815. The Dec 2015 Note has zero stated interest rate, and the conversion price shall be equal to 75% of
the average three lowest last sale prices traded during the 25 trading days immediately prior to conversion. As of March 31, 2018,
the remaining balance of the Dec 2015 Note was $167,048.
The Company issued a convertible
note (“Sep 2016 Note”) in exchange for an accounts payable in the amount of $430,896, which could be converted into
shares of the Company’s common stock after September 15, 2016. The Sep 2016 Note was accounted for under ASC 470, whereby,
a beneficial conversion feature was recorded at time of issuance. On September 15, 2016, the Sep 2016 Note met the criteria of
a derivative and was accounted for under ASC 815. The Sep 2016 Note has zero stated interest rate, and the conversion price shall
be equal to 75% of the average three lowest last sale prices traded during the 25 trading days immediately prior to conversion.
The Sep 2016 Note did not meet the criteria of a derivative at the time it was entered into, and was accounted for as a beneficial
conversion feature, which was amortized over the life of the Sep 2016 Note and recognized as interest expense in the financial
statements. The conversion feature of the Sep 2016 Note was considered a derivative in accordance with current accounting guidelines
because of the reset conversion feature of the Sep 2016 Note. The Company recorded amortization of debt discount, which was recognized
as interest expense in the amount of $46,333 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
The Company issued an unsecured
convertible promissory note (the “Dec 20 Note”), in the amount of $150,000 on December 20, 2017. The Dec 20 Note matures
on December 20, 2018. The Dec 20 Note bears interest at 10% per annum. The Dec 20 Note may be converted into shares of the Company’s
common stock at a conversion price of the lesser of $0.03 per share or 50% of the lowest trade price during the twenty trading
days immediately before the conversion. The conversion feature of the Dec 20 Note was considered a derivative in accordance with
current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features of the Dec 20 Note. The Company recorded amortization of
debt discount, which was recognized as interest expense in the amount of $2,126 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
The Company issued an unsecured
convertible promissory note (the “Dec 22 Note”), in the amount of $75,000 on December 22, 2017. The Dec 22 Note matures
on December 22, 2018. The Dec 22 Note bears interest at 10% per annum. The Dec 22 Note may be converted into shares of the Company’s
common stock at a conversion price of the lesser of $0.05 per share or 50% of the lowest trade price during the twenty trading

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (Continued)

The Company issued various unsecured
convertible promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $174,000 on dates of January 24, 2018, February 20, 2018 and March 21,
2018. The January 24, 2018 note matures on January 24, 2019, the February 20, 2018 note matures on February 20, 2019, and the March
21, 2018 note matures on March 21, 2019. Each of the January 24, 2018, February 20, 2018 and March 21, 2018 notes bear interest
at 10% per annum and may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a variable conversion price of 61% of
the lowest one (1) trading day during the ten (10) trading days prior to conversion. The conversion feature was considered a derivative
in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features. The Company recorded amortization of
debt discount, which was recognized as interest expense in the amount of $15,169 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
The Company issued two (2) unsecured
convertible promissory notes (together, the “Feb 2018 Notes”), in the aggregate principal amount of $157,500 (each
in the amount of $78,750) on February 23, 2018. The Feb 2018 Notes mature on February 23, 2019 and bear interest at 10% per annum.
The first of the two Feb 2018 Notes shall be paid for by the buyer as set forth herein. The second of the two Feb 2018 Notes shall
initially be paid for by the issuance of an offsetting $78,750 secured note issued to the Company by the buyer. The first of the
two Feb 2018 Notes was funded with cash and the Company must agree to the funding of the second note, before it can be funded with
cash. The second of the Feb 2018 Notes is secured by assets of the buyer having a fair market value of at least $78,750, and provided
that prior to conversion of the second Feb 2018 Note, the buyer must have paid off the buyer note in cash. The Feb 2018 Notes may
be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.03 or 50% discount of the lowest trading
price during the twenty (20) trading days prior to conversion. The conversion feature of the Feb 2018 Notes was considered a derivative
in accordance with current accounting guidelines because of the reset conversion features of the Feb 2018 Notes. The Company recorded
amortization of debt discount, which was recognized as interest expense in the amount of $4,252 during the three months ended March
31, 2018.
We evaluated the financing transactions
in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory
notes was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has
no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards
for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation
into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety
at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the
imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to the stock
price fluctuations.
The derivative liability recognized
in the financial statements as of March 31, 2018 was $17,418,475.

DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

We evaluated the financing transactions
in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory
note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has
no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards
for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation
into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety
at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the
imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically per the stock price
fluctuations.
The convertible
notes issued and described in Note 4 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The
conversion feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with
the change in value reported in the statement of operations.
During the three months ended
March 31, 2018, as a result of the convertible notes issued that were accounted for as derivative liabilities, we determined that
the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $214,171, based upon a Binomial-Model calculation.
We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized
over the life of the convertible notes.
During the three months ended
March 31, 2018, the Company converted $50,000 in principal of convertible promissory notes, plus accrued interest of $16,979. As
a result of the conversion of these notes and the change in fair value of the remaining notes, the Company recorded a loss on net
change in derivative and conversion of debt in the amount of $11,797,873 in the statement of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2018. At March 31, 2018, the fair value of the derivative liability was $17,418,475.

2013 Plan may be either incentive options or nonqualified options and shall be administered by the Company's Board of
Directors. Each option shall state the number of shares to which it pertains. The exercise price will be
determined by the holders’ percentage owned as follows: If the holder owns more than 10% of the total combined voting
power or value of all classes of stock of the Company, then the exercise price will be no less than 110% of the fair market
value of the stock as of the date of grant; if the person is not a 10% holder, then the exercise price will be no less than
100% of the fair market value of the stock as of the date of grant. Notwithstanding any other provision of the 2013 Plan or
of any option agreement, each option shall expire on the date specified in the option agreement, which date shall not be
later than the tenth (10th) anniversary from the date of grant. If the status of an employee terminates for any reason other
than disability or death, then the optionee or their representative shall have the right to exercise the portion of any
options which were exercisable as of the date of such termination, in whole or in part, not less than 30 days nor more than
three (3) months after such termination.
On
September 29, 2015, the Board of Directors adopted a new OriginClear, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Stock Option Plan (the
“2015 Plan”) for the purposes of granting stock options to its employees and others providing services to the
Company, which reserves and sets aside for the granting of options for 3,315,714 shares of common stock. On October 2,
2015, the Board of Directors amended the number of shares to reserve for issuance to 4,571,429 shares. Options granted
under the 2015 Plan may be either incentive options or nonqualified options and shall be administered by the Company's Board
of Directors. Each option shall be exercisable to the nearest whole share, in installments or otherwise, as the
respective option agreements may provide. Notwithstanding any other provision of the 2015 Plan or of any option agreement,
each option shall expire on the date specified in the option agreement, which date shall not be later than the fifth (5th)
anniversary from the effective date of grant.
During
the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company granted 31,429 shares of incentive stock options to employees, and 428,571 shares
of non-statutory options to consultants. Each option shall be exercisable to the nearest whole share, in installments or otherwise,
as the respective option agreements may provide. The stock options mature on March 29, 2021 and October 17, 2021, at prices of
$0.29 and $1.31.
With
respect to non-statutory options granted to employees, directors or consultants, the Board of Directors or Committee of the Board
of Directors may specify such period for exercise that the option shall automatically terminate following the termination of employment
or services as to shares covered by the option as the Board of Directors or Committee of the Board of Directors deems reasonable
and appropriate.
