Item 8.01 Other Events.

On October 19, 2020, Pharmagreen Biotech Inc. announced that it is no longer under chapter 11 proceedings of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On August 11, 2020, the Company voluntarily filed for petitions for relief under chapter 11. On October 09, 2020, a stay order was lifted by a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, on an action filed by EMA Financial LLC. The company does not plan to appeal this ruling. This effectively removed the company from its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and protection.
