Greenwood Finance Group LLC Acquires Promissory Notes of the Company

It was reported to the Company, on or around May 18, 2015, by Solomon Ali our Senior Vice President and a Director, that in the month January 2015, Greenwood Finance Group LLC (“Greenwood”), (a subsidiary of Revolutionary Concepts Inc.), acquired a portfolio of 9 of the Company’s Promissory Notes, with a principal amount of approximately $150,660 from various Note Holders of the Company in a non-public, private transaction directly from the individual Note Holders. All of the Promissory Notes are over six months old,  have the option to convert them into common stock of the Company and are disclosed in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Solomon Ali is also Senior Vice President and a Director of Revolutionary Concepts Inc., and was appointed as  Corporate Secretary for Greenwood Finance in March of 2015.  Due to the fact that

Solomon Ali is an Officer and Director of Universal Bioenergy Inc., and is also an Officer and Director of Revolutionary Concepts Inc., and its subsidiary Greenwood Finance Group, therefore Greenwood may be deemed to be an affiliate of the Company.

Pursuant to  Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, control securities are those held by an affiliate of the issuing company.  An affiliate is a person, such as an officer, director or large shareholder, (e.g. owning 10% of a company’s outstanding shares), in a relationship of control with the issuer.  Control means the power to direct the management and policies of the company in question, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. Any shares issued to Greenwood upon conversion would be restricted securities. Restricted securities are securities acquired in unregistered, private sales from the issuer or from an affiliate of the issuer. Investors typically receive restricted securities through private placement offerings pursuant to Regulation D, employee stock benefit plans, as compensation for professional services, or in exchange for providing "seed money" or start-up capital to the company. Rule 144(a)(3) identifies what sales result in  restricted securities.  Pursuant to  Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, control securities are those held by an affiliate of the issuing company.  An affiliate is a person, such as an officer, director or large shareholder, (e.g. owning 10% of a company’s outstanding shares), in a relationship of control with the issuer.  Control means the power to direct the management and policies of the company in question, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

Therefore, in the event Greenwood elected to convert its Notes to common stock of the Company it would be subject to the limitations of  Rule 144 on sales of any of its stock. The restrictions on the sales of restricted stock per Rule 144 include  holding the stock for a minimum of six months after issuance,  (subject to the issuance date and the holding period for the  Note(s), and it would therefore be limited to selling an amount equal to 1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares every 90 days. When and if it did decide to sell any of its stock, the federal securities laws  require them to file a Form 144,  (Notice of Proposed Sale of Securities), notifying the SEC of their intent to sell any of its stock in accordance with the Rule 144 guidelines and limitations.

It was reported to us, that in the event Greenwood Finance Group, elected to convert the Notes to common stock of the Company, Solomon Ali in his role as Secretary of Greenwood, could be (but not necessarily be), involved in managing, supervising  or otherwise coordinating the process of the conversion the Notes to our common stock and possibly selling them in either in a non-public private transaction or in  open market transaction(s). Due to potential conflicts of interests, (in the event Greenwood elects to convert the Notes to common stock), Solomon Ali may or may not, formally elect to recuse himself from any direct or indirect involvement in the process of managing, supervising or coordinating the conversion of,  and the selling of the Notes, and direct that Greenwood have that process managed by an independent third party.  

To our knowledge, Greenwood Finance Group has not converted any of the Notes to common stock or otherwise  sold or disposed of any of the  securities of the Company
