Item 1. Security and Issuer.

 

This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), of First Harvest Corp., a Nevada Corporation (the “ Issuer ”). The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 5015 W. Nassau Street, Tampa, Florida 33607.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background.

 

This statement is filed on behalf of (1) Kevin Gillespie, a United States citizen (“ Gillespie ”); and (2) First Harvest Financial, Inc., a Florida corporation (“ FHF ”). Such parties are referred to herein individually as a “ Reporting Person ” and collectively as the “ Reporting Persons .”

 

Gillespie is the sole officer, director and shareholder of FHF. The Reporting Persons are making this single, joint filing because they may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned by any person other than such Reporting Person except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.

 

The principal business address of each Reporting Person is c/o First Harvest Corp., 5015 W. Nassau Street, Tampa, Florida 33607.

 

None of the Reporting Persons has, during the past five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors).  None of the Reporting Persons has, during the past five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Share Purchase Agreement

 

On March 1, 2016, FHF entered into a share purchase agreement with Edward C. Zimmerman, III (“ Zimmerman ”), pursuant to which FHF purchased 300,000 shares (such number of shares was originally 3,000,000 prior to a 10:1 reverse stock split conducted by the Issuer) of common stock from Zimmerman for $6,000. These shares represented, at the time, approximately 78.9% of the Issuer.

 

Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization

 

On February 10, 2017, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger and reorganization entered into by and among the Issuer, CV Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“ Acquisition Corp. ”), and Cannavoices, Inc. (“Cannavoices”), Acquisition Corp. merged with and into Cannavoices, such that Cannavoices, the surviving corporation, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection therewith, the Issuer issued shares of common stock in exchange for the cancellation of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Cannavoices.

 

Gillespie was a stockholder of Cannavoices and received 5,641,929 shares of common stock of the Issuer.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Gillespie and FHF acquired all of their common stock for investment purposes.

 

Gillespie is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer and the sole member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. In these capacities, Gillespie takes and will continue to take an active role in the Issuer’s management and strategic direction. Additionally, in their capacities as stockholders of the Issuer, the Reporting Persons review and intend to continue to review, on an ongoing and continued basis, their investments in the Issuer. Depending on the factors discussed below and subject to applicable law, any Reporting Person may from time to time acquire additional securities of the Issuer or otherwise dispose of some or all of such securities of the Issuer. Any transactions that any Reporting Person may pursue may be made at any time and from time to time without prior notice and will depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices of the securities of the Issuer, the financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Issuer, general economic, financial market and industry conditions, other investment and business opportunities available to such Reporting Person, tax considerations and other factors.

 

Other than as described above and other than in his capacity as an officer and director of the Issuer, neither Gillespie nor any other Reporting Person currently has plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the transactions involving the Issuer described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D (although either Reporting Person may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing any such transactions and, in that connection, may discuss, evaluate and/or pursue any such transactions with their respective advisors, the Issuer or other persons).

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

Gillespie beneficially owns 5,941,929 shares of Issuer common stock, comprised of (i) 5,641,929 shares of common stock owned by Gillespie, and (ii) 300,000 shares of common stock owned by FHF. Gillespie is the sole officer, director and shareholder of FHF. Based upon 23,807,935 shares of the Issuer’s common stock outstanding (as of February 10, 2017), as set forth in the Issuer’s current report on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 2017, the shares of the Issuer’s common stock beneficially owned by Gillespie constitute approximately 25.0% of the common stock of the Issuer as calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1).

 

FHF beneficially owns 300,000 shares of Issuer common stock. Based upon 23,807,935 shares of the Issuer’s common stock outstanding (as of February 10, 2017), as set forth in the Issuer’s current report on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 2017, the shares of the Issuer’s common stock beneficially owned by FHF constitute approximately 1.3% of the common stock of the Issuer as calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1).
