ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

On November 10, 2014, the Company was served with a lawsuit by an alleged assignee and a guarantor to a Loan Guarantee, Payment and Security Agreement. These parties claim breach of that Agreement and damages of approximately $2.3 Million plus interest. The assignor and assignee also sued the Company’s directors and two past directors, an affiliate shareholder and the Company’s secured creditor, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, claiming damages as alleged creditors arising out of these parties’ alleged participation in Northstar Biotech Group, LLC, a secured creditor of the Company.

In May and June of 2015, the lawsuit was settled. As part of the settlement, the Company’s debt was reduced by $824,865.39. The Company provided a note to the original guarantor in the amount of $1,697,762, to be paid over a five year period with a 0% interest rate. The settlement also provides for a general release among all parties and for the dismissal of the lawsuit.
