Item 8.01 Other Events.
The company’s executive chairman resolved the outstanding long-disputed tax claim against the company as part of the new equity offering being contemplated to expand into company-owned Artisanal retail locations with a format of a cheese shop & café. The company will become a fully-reporting filer with the closing of the equity offering. The completion of the new equity offering will also trigger the transition of the company from a licensing company to an operating entity with a new direct-to-consumer business plan. The company will continue to service only select premium hospitality outlets as its sole business-to-business operation with all other revenues being generated by direct consumer sales online or through new company-owned retail outlets. The tax resolution adds to the shareholder loan conversion that was part of a previously announced agreement with early-stage investors to convert approximately $7 million of loans into common stock at $.30 per share at the closing of the equity offering.
