PROPOSAL 5

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE SAY-ON-PAY VOTE

In addition to providing you with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on executive compensation, this year, in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, a majority of the stockholders of the Company cast an advisory vote on the frequency of that Say-on-Pay vote to be held every three years. 

The Board recommended a shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation. We believe that a vote every three years would provide us with timely feedback from our shareholders on executive compensation matters given our status as a smaller reporting company.  

Although the vote on this proposal is non-binding, the Board of Directors value the opinions of our stockholders and will take into account the outcome of the vote in considering the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. 

PROPOSAL 6

APPROVAL OF GRANT TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY TO AFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT TO THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK

We are seeking shareholder approval to grant the Board discretionary authority to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation to affect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, such split to combine a whole number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock in a range of not less than two (2) shares and not more than twenty (50) shares, into one share of Common Stock at any time prior to December 31, 2020 (the “Reverse Split Proposal”). 

shares of our Common Stock will materially increase and will be available for reissuance by the Company. The reverse stock split, if affected, would affect all of our holders of Common Stock uniformly.

The Board unanimously approved and recommended seeking shareholder approval of this Reverse Split Proposal, on April 30, 2019.

Although the majority shareholder approved the Reverse Split Proposal, we reserve the right not to affect any reverse stock split if the Board does not deem it to be in the best interests of our shareholders. The Board believes that granting this discretion provides the Board with maximum flexibility to act in the best interests of our shareholders. Therefore, the Board will have the authority, in its sole discretion, without further action by the shareholders, to affect a reverse stock split. 

The Board's decision as to whether and when to affect the reverse stock split will be based on a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions, existing and expected trading prices for our Common Stock, actual or forecasted results of operations, and the likely effect of such results on the market price of our Common Stock. 

Following a reverse stock split, the number of our outstanding shares of Common Stock will be significantly reduced. The reverse stock split is not being proposed in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate our shares of Common Stock or obtain control of the Company, nor is it a plan by management to recommend a series of similar actions to our Board or our shareholders. 

There are certain risks associated with a reverse stock split, and we cannot accurately predict or assure the reverse stock split will produce or maintain the desired results (for more information on the risks see the section below entitled “Certain Risks Associated with a Reverse Stock Split”). However, our Board believes that the benefits to the Company and our shareholders outweigh the risks and recommends that you vote in favor of granting the Board the discretionary authority to affect a reverse stock split. 

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

The primary purpose for effecting the reverse stock split, should the Board of Directors choose to effect one, would be to increase the per share price of our Common Stock. The Board of Directors believes that, should the appropriate circumstances arise, affecting the reverse stock split would, among other things, help us to: 

Meet the NASDAQ or NYSE Listing Requirements -  Our Common Stock is currently listed on the OTCQB Pink (“CETY”). Both the NYSE and the NASDAQ require a minimum trading price per share in order to list on either exchange. The NYSE and the NASDAQ Rules and Regulations, require among other things, that in order to list on their exchanges, the average closing price of a company's common stock must be at least $3.00 or $4.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

Appeal to a Broader Range of Investors to Generate Greater Investor Interest in the Company -  An increase in our stock price may make our Common Stock more attractive to investors. Brokerage firms may be reluctant to recommend lower-priced securities to their clients. Many institutional investors have policies prohibiting them from holding lower-priced stocks in their portfolios, which reduces the number of potential purchasers of our Common Stock. Investment funds may also be reluctant to invest in lower-priced stocks. Investors may also be dissuaded from purchasing lower-priced stocks because the brokerage commissions, as a percentage of the total transaction, tend to be higher for such stocks. Moreover, the analysts at many brokerage firms do not monitor the trading activity or otherwise provide coverage of lower-priced stocks. Giving the Board of Directors the ability to affect a reverse stock split, and thereby increase the price of our Common Stock, would give the Board the ability to address these issues if it is deemed necessary. 

Improve the Perception of Our Common Stock as an Investment Security -  We believe that the overall economic environment in the industry in which we are currently operating has been a significant contributing factor in the decline in the price of our Common Stock. Our Board of Directors unanimously approved the discretionary authority to affect a reverse

Page 17

stock split as one potential means of increasing the share price of our Common Stock to improve the perception of our Common Stock as a viable investment security. Lower-priced stocks have a perception in the investment community as being risky and speculative, which may negatively impact not only the price of our Common Stock, but also our market liquidity.

Certain Risks Associated with a Reverse Stock Split

Even if a reverse stock split is affected, some or all of the expected benefits discussed above may not be realized or maintained. The market price of our Common Stock will continue to be based, in part, on our performance and other factors unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. 

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock without reducing the number of shares of available but unissued Common Stock, which will also have the effect of increasing the number of authorized but unissued shares. The issuance of additional shares of our Common Stock may have a dilutive effect on the ownership of existing shareholders. 

The current economic environment, in which we operate, the substantial debt we carry and other risks which affect our ability to operate as a going concern, along with otherwise volatile equity market conditions, could limit our ability to raise new equity capital in the future. 

Principal Effects of a Reverse Stock Split

If our stockholders approve this Reverse Split Proposal and the Board of Directors elects to affect a reverse stock split, our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would decrease at a rate of approximately one share of Common Stock for every two (2) to fifty (50) shares of Common Stock currently outstanding, with adjustment for any fractional shares. The reverse stock split would be affected simultaneously for all of our Common Stock, and the exchange ratio would be the same for all shares of Common Stock. The reverse stock split would affect all of our shareholders uniformly and would not affect any shareholder's percentage ownership interests in the Company, except to the extent that it results in a shareholder receiving whole shares in lieu of fractional shares. Shareholders holding fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the next whole share. The reverse stock split would not affect the relative voting or other rights that accompany the shares of our Common Stock, except to the extent that it results in a shareholder receiving a whole share in lieu of fractional shares. Common Stock issued pursuant to the reverse stock split would remain fully paid and non-assessable. The reverse stock split would not affect our securities law reporting and disclosure obligations, and we would continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have no current plans to take the Company private. Accordingly, a reverse stock split is not related to a strategy to do so. 

In addition to the change in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, a reverse stock split would have the following effects: 

Increase the Per Share Price of our Common Stock  - By effectively condensing a number of pre-split shares into one share of Common Stock, the per share price of a post-split share is generally greater than the per share price of a pre-split share. The amount of the initial increase in per share price and the duration of such increase, however, are uncertain. If appropriate circumstances exist, the Board may utilize the reverse stock split as part of its plan to obtain listing on the NYSE or NASDAQ to meet their listing standards noted above.

Increase in the Number of Shares of Common Stock Available for Future Issuance  - By reducing the number of shares outstanding without reducing the number of shares of available but unissued Common Stock, a reverse stock split will increase the number of authorized but unissued shares. The Board believes the increase is appropriate for use to fund the future operations of the Company. Although the Company does not have any pending acquisitions for which shares are expected to be used, the Company may also use authorized shares in connection with the financing of future acquisitions.

The following table contains approximate information relating to our common stock, based on share information as of April 26, 2019

Although a reverse stock split would not have any dilutive effect on our shareholders, a reverse stock split without a reduction in the number of shares authorized for issuance would reduce the proportion of shares owned by our shareholders relative to the number of shares authorized for issuance, giving our Board an effective increase in the authorized shares available for issuance, in its discretion. Our Board from time to time may deem it to be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders to enter into transactions and other ventures that may include the issuance of shares of our Common Stock. If our Board authorizes the issuance of additional shares subsequent to the reverse stock split described above, the dilution to the ownership interest of our existing shareholders may be greater than would occur had the reverse stock split not been affected. Many stock issuances not involving equity compensation do not require shareholder approval, and our Board generally seeks approval of our shareholders in connection with a proposed issuance only if required at that time.   

In addition, a reverse stock split may result in some shareholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of Common Stock, which may be more difficult to sell and may cause those holders to incur greater brokerage commissions and other costs upon sale. 

Authorized Shares of Common Stock

The Reverse Stock Split Proposal will not change the number of authorized shares of Common Stock but will increase the number of authorized shares available for future issuance for corporate needs such as equity financing, retirement of outstanding indebtedness, stock splits and stock dividends, employee benefit plans, or other corporate purposes as may be deemed by the Board to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board believes the increase in available shares for future issuance is appropriate to fund the future operations of the Company. It will also provide the Company with greater flexibility to respond quickly to advantageous business opportunities. However, we may from time to time explore opportunities to make acquisitions through the use of stock. As a result, the Company's current number of authorized shares of Common Stock may enable the Company to better meet its future business needs. 

We believe that the increase in the amount of authorized Common Stock from 800,000,000 to 2,000,000,000 will make a sufficient number of shares available, should the Company decide to use its shares for one or more of such previously mentioned purposes or otherwise. The current capital will provide the Board with the ability to issue additional shares of stock without further vote of the shareholders of the Company, except as provided under Nevada corporate law or under the rules of any national securities exchange on which shares of stock of the Company are then listed. 

Procedure for Effecting Reverse Stock Split and Exchange of Stock Certificates

If the Reverse Split Proposal is approved by our shareholders, our Board, in its sole discretion, will determine whether such an action is in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders, taking into consideration the factors discussed above. If our Board believes that a reverse stock split is in our best interests and the best interest of our shareholders, our Board will then implement the reverse stock split. 

We would then file a certificate of amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of the State of Nevada at such time as our Board of Directors had determined as the appropriate effective time for the reverse stock split to affect the reverse split. The certificate of amendment would add a new provision providing that holders of our Common  

Page 19

Stock immediately prior to the filing of the amendment will receive one share of Common Stock for each number of shares selected by the Board. Upon the filing of the certificate of amendment, and without any further action on the part of the Company or our shareholders, the issued shares of Common Stock held by shareholders of record as of the effective date of the reverse stock split would be converted into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock calculated in accordance with the reverse stock split ratio of not less than one-for-two (1:2) or not more than one-for-fifty (1:50), as selected by our Board and set forth in the certificate of amendment.

For example, if a shareholder presently holds 1,000 shares of our Common Stock, he or she would hold 500 shares of Common Stock following a one-for-two reverse stock split, or 20 shares of Common Stock following a one-for-fifty reverse stock split, in each case with an adjustment for any fractional shares. Beginning on the effective date of the split, each certificate representing pre-split shares would be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of post-split shares. 

As soon as practicable after the effective date of the reverse stock split, shareholders would be notified that the reverse stock split had been affected. 

 In addition, prior to filing the amendment to the amended and restated articles of incorporation reflecting the reverse stock split, we must notify FINRA by filing an Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form.  This form is required to be filed with FINRA no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated filing date.  Our failure timely to make such filing may constitute fraud under Section 10 of the Exchange Act 

Effect on Beneficial Holders (i.e., Shareholders Who Hold in “Street Name”)

Upon the reverse stock split, we intend to treat Common Stock held by shareholders in “street name,” through a bank, broker or other nominee, in the same manner as shareholders whose shares are registered in their own names. Banks, brokers or other nominees will be instructed to affect the reverse stock split for their customers holding Common Stock in “street name.” However, these banks, brokers or other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing the reverse stock split. If you hold shares of Common Stock with a bank, broker or other nominee and have any questions in this regard, you are encouraged to contact your bank, broker or other nominee. 

Effect on Registered “Book-Entry” Holders (i.e., Shareholders that are Registered on the Transfer Agent's Books and Records but do not Hold Certificates)

Some of our registered holders of Common Stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with our transfer agent, West Coast Stock Transfer Inc. These shareholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of Common Stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts. If a shareholder holds registered shares in book-entry form with our transfer agent, no action needs to be taken to receive post-reverse stock split shares. If a shareholder is entitled to post-reverse stock split shares, a transaction statement will be available to be sent to the shareholder's address of record indicating the number of shares (adjusted for any fractional shares) of Common Stock held following the reverse stock split, if required by the shareholder. 

Effect on Certificated Shares

Upon the reverse stock split our transfer agent will act as our exchange agent and assist holders of Common Stock in implementing the exchange of their certificates. 

Commencing on the effective date of a reverse stock split, shareholders holding shares in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a shareholder should surrender his or her certificates representing Common Stock (“Old Certificates”) to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole post-reverse stock split Common Stock, as applicable (“New Certificates”). No New Certificates will be issued to a shareholder until that shareholder has surrendered all Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. The letter of transmittal will also contain instructions on how you may obtain New Certificates if your Old Certificates have been lost. If you have lost your certificates, you will have to pay any surety premium and the service fee required by our transfer agent. 

Page 20

Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates held by shareholders to be canceled and only to represent the number of whole shares to which these shareholders are entitled. 

Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of shares, will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. 

Shareholders should not destroy any stock certificates and should not submit any certificates until requested to do so by the transfer agent. Shortly after the reverse stock split the transfer agent will provide registered shareholders with instructions and a letter of transmittal for converting Old Certificates into New Certificates. Shareholders are encouraged to promptly surrender Old Certificates to the transfer agent (acting as exchange agent in connection with the reverse stock split) in order to avoid having shares become subject to escheat laws.   

Fractional Shares

The effect of the Reverse Split upon existing shareholders of the common stock will be that the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by each shareholder will automatically convert into the number of whole shares of common stock equal to the number of shares of common stock owned immediately prior to the Reverse Split divided by the reverse stock split ratio chosen by the Board, with an adjustment for any fractional shares. (Fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole share). 

Upon effectuation of the Reverse Split, each common shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company’s common stock will remain virtually unchanged, except for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of common stock of the Company will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Split. All issued and outstanding options, warrants, and convertible securities would be appropriately adjusted for the Reverse Split automatically on the effective date of the Reverse Split. Shareholders holding a fractional as a result of the Reverse Split will be rounded up to the next whole share.  

No Appraisal Rights

Our shareholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to a reverse stock split, and we will not independently provide shareholders with any such right. 

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in this Reverse Split Proposal except to the extent of their ownership of shares of our Common Stock. 

Reservation of Right to Abandon Reverse Stock Split

We reserve the right to abandon a reverse stock split without further action by our shareholders at any time before the effectiveness of the filing with the Secretary of the State of Nevada of the certificate of amendment to our Articles of Incorporation, even if the authority to affect a reverse stock split has been approved by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting. By voting in favor of a reverse stock split, you are expressly also authorizing the Board to delay, not to proceed with, and abandon, a reverse stock split if it should so decide, in its sole discretion, that such action is in the best interests of the shareholders. 

Vote Required

Approximately 59.8% of the stockholders holding our issued and outstanding Common Stock executed and delivered to the Company a written consent approving the action set forth herein. Since the action has been approved by a majority of Stockholders, no proxies are being solicited with this Information Statement.
