Explanatory Note
This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment ("Amendment No. 1") to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Eos Petro, Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 12, 2016 (the "Original Filing"). The Original Filing reported the appointment of Alan D. Gaines as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; however, Mr. Gaines was actually appointed as the President, not the Chief Executive Officer. The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to correct such inadvertent error.
Item 5.02 Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Effective January 11, 2016, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Alan D. Gaines whereby Mr. Gaines was intended to be appointed as the Company's President, reporting to the Board of Directors. Due to an inadvertent error, the employment agreement with Mr. Gaines stated, and the Original Filing reported, that Mr. Gaines was appointed as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. This Amendment No. 1 is being filed to reflect that Mr. Gaines was appointed as President, not the Chief Executive Officer, and that Mr. Martin Oring resigned as the Company's President, not Chief Executive Officer. Other than to correct this error, all other information in the Original Filing is unchanged.
Signature
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunder duly authorized.
