Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement


On October 21, 2013, Registrant entered into a Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement with our former CEO, Gordon F. Lee, pursuant to which Mr. Lee agreed to resign all positions with Registrant, to terminate and rescind all employment agreements, consulting agreements, options and warrants held by Mr. Lee or entered into between Mr. Lee and Registrant, to cancel and rescind the issuance of all common and preferred stock issued to Mr. Lee by Registrant after May 31, 2013, as well as to cancel and to rescind as of September 30, 2013, the consulting agreement between Registrant and Victoria Blackburn.  The rescission actions also include the consulting agreements entered into between Registrant and Mr. Lees companies, Carbon Energy Handling, Inc. and Gordon F. Lee Group, LLC. In exchange for the resignations and termination of the several agreements and the cancellation of all common and preferred shares issued to Mr. Lee after May 31, 2013 and all warrants and options issued to him, Registrant agreed to issue to Mr. Lee 100,000,000 shares of common stock.  The amounts previously contributed by Mr. Lee for the purchase of units from Registrant consisting of common stock and warrants, net of amounts paid in cash to Mr. Lee as compensation for employment and consulting services for himself and his related entities, will be allocated as part of the cost of the new shares to be issued, and any remaining value will be treated as compensation to Mr. Lee for his services.
