There is no arrangement between Mr. Certa and any other party pursuant to which he was selected as a director. No committee assignment(s) were made as of yet.

| Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
At the meeting of the Registrant’s Board of Directors held on July 19, 2016, the Board considered the problem of the growing delinquencies in the Registrant’s required periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Noting that the Registrant’s communication of financial information to its shareholders had been disrupted, the Board determined that it would be better to deregister under the 1934 Act and provide unaudited and unreviewed financial information on the Registrant’s website and OTC Markets. Accordingly, the Board voted to file Form 15 and deregister the common stock, the only class registered.
