Cautionary
NOTE Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Our disclosure and analysis in this Current
Report on Form 8-K for Brazil Minerals, Inc. (the “Company”) contains some forward-looking statements. Statements that
are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions or that include words such as "expects,"
"anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates" and similar expressions
are forward-looking statements. Although we believe that these statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they are subject
to several risks and uncertainties.
Investors are cautioned that our forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and the actual results or developments may differ materially from the expectations
expressed in the forward-looking statements.
As for the forward-looking statements that
relate to future financial results and other projections, actual results will be different due to the inherent uncertainty of estimates,
forecasts and projections and may be better or worse than projected. Given these uncertainties, you should not place any reliance
on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements also represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the
date that they were made. We expressly disclaim a duty to provide updates to these forward-looking statements, and the estimates
and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this filing to reflect events or changes in circumstances or changes in
expectations or the occurrence of anticipated events.
You are advised to consult any additional disclosures
we make in our reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K, or their successors. Other factors besides those discussed in this Current
Report could also adversely affect us.
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On
December 31, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment and restatement of the employment agreement between
the Company and Marc Fogassa, its chief executive officer. The material changes in the agreement are as follows. Under the prior
agreement, Mr. Fogassa had the right to receive an annual cash salary of $250,000 per annum. Under the amended and restated agreement,
Mr. Fogassa will not receive any cash as salary. Instead, he will be granted each month ten-year non-qualified stock options to
purchase up to 25 million shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price equal to $0.00001 per share, such price and
shares being subject to customary adjustments for any dividends, etc. If and when such options are exercised, the stock to be received
will be restricted by the provisions of Rule 144, which currently limits any sales of affiliates with respect to the Company to 1% of
the total outstanding shares per every 90-day period. In addition, the amended and restated agreement contains a provision which states that,
if there is growth of the Company’s shareholder equity or book value above a high-water mark, calculated one time per year,
then and only then Mr. Fogassa will receive a performance bonus payable half in cash and half in common stock of the Company.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition
of Assets.
On December 31, 2020, the Board of Directors
of the Brazil Diamond & Gold Corporation (“BDG”) ratified an agreement between BDG and Apollo Resources Corporation
(“ARC”) which included the issuance by ARC to BDG of 700,000 common shares of ARC (the “ARC Shares”),
par value $0.001 per share, in exchange for the transfer to ARC of 99.99% of the equity interest in a Brazilian company which
owns certain exploration rights for iron. The Company is the controlling shareholder of BDG, and therefore by virtue of such transaction
may be deemed to be the indirect beneficial owner of the ARC Shares and the controlling person of ARC, and as such ARC will be
consolidated in the financial statements of the Company. The last price per share of the ARC common stock in a private transaction
between ARC and third-party unrelated accredited investors is $4.00 per share.
