Management does not believe the ultimate resolution will have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

(“Mamaki”), Hawaiian Beverages, Inc.(“HBI”), Curtis Borman and Lee Jenison for breach of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated October 29, 2015, wherein the Company sold its shares in Mamaki to HBI for $700,000 (along with the assumption of certain debt). The Defendants failed to make payments of $150,000 each on November 30, 2015, December 28, 2015 and January 27, 2016. On January 13, 2017, the parties executed a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement (Agreement). However, the Defendants defaulted in their payment obligations under Agreement. Curtis Borman and Lee Jennison were co-guarantors of the obligations of Mamaki and HBI. To secure their guaranties, each of Curtis Borman and Lee Jennsion posted 1,241,500 and 1,000,000 shares, respectively, of the Company. Under the Agreement, the shares were valued at $.20. Due to the default under the Agreement, these shares were returned to the Company’s treasury shares. Because of bankruptcy proceedings involving Curtis Borman, all action in this matter has been stayed. See Subsequent Events Note 13. |
