Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.
(a) On October 28, 2019, Donald Steinberg
and Charles Larsen, each the owner of five million shares of Preferred Class A Common Stock, agreed, in exchange for a mutual release
of all claims by the Company, to cancel and return to treasury their respective 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Class A common stock.
The shares of Preferred Class A Common
Stock owned by Mr. Larsen and Mr. Steinberg carried designated voting rights, on any issue subject to a shareholder vote, providing
for 100 votes for each share of Preferred Class A Common Stock owned. The Board of Directors subsequently decided, at the closing
of the agreement with Mr. Larsen and Mr. Steinberg, to issue pro rata, 10 million shares of Class A Preferred Common Stock to directors
Robert Coale, Edward Manolos and Jesus Quintero. By virtue of this issuance, Mr. Manolos, Mr. Coale and Mr. Quintero could collectively
exercise their preferred voting rights to exert control.
The transaction closed December 10,
2019, when the Preferred Class A Common Stock certificates were returned to the Registrant’s transfer agent, who then cancelled
and reissued them.
There were no arrangements or understandings
among members of both the former and new control groups and their associates with respect to election of directors or other matters.
(b) The following table sets forth each
class of equity securities of the Registrant or any of its parents or subsidiaries, including directors' qualifying shares, beneficially
