Changes in the Board of Directors

 

SPI Transaction

 

Neo Sports Ltd., a Japanese company (“Neo Sports”), was formed to acquire Sports Perfecta, Inc., a California corporation and subsidiary of the Company (“SPI”), and a receivable representing a sum owing to the Company by SPI in the amount of JPY 185,540,908, and to pursue other business opportunities. Shortly before the SPI transaction, two unrelated third parties founded and contributed cash to Neo Sports in exchange for capital stock of Neo Sports. Also, shortly before the SPI transaction, on June 25, 2018, Shuya Watanabe and Takashi Ozawa, both officers, directors, and principal stockholders of the Company, and Kazuaki Goto, a principal stockholder of the Company, acquired capital stock of Neo Sports by transferring to Neo Sports the following property:

 

(1)       From Shuya Watanabe 14,000,000 shares of Company common stock and 100,000 shares of Company Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,

 

(2)       From Takashi Ozawa 6,600,000 shares of Company common stock; and

 

(3)       From Kazuaki Goto 3,000,000 shares of Company common stock and a contract option right held by Mr. Goto to purchase 3,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company at a price of $1.00 per share.

 

After the foregoing transactions, Messrs. Watanabe, Ozawa, and Goto hold, in the aggregate, 7.3% of the capital stock of Neo Sports, and the unrelated third party cash investors hold 92.7% of Neo Sports.

 

All of the Company securities acquired by Neo Sports were immediately transferred to the Company in exchange for 100% of the capital stock of SPI, which was owned by the Company, and a receivable representing a sum owing to the Company by SPI in the amount of JPY 185,540,908. The SPI transaction was closed on June 26, 2018.

 

As a result of the transaction Shuya Watanabe, Takashi Ozawa, and Kazuaki Goto ceased to be holders of any securities in the Company and ceased to be controlling stockholders of the Company. The beneficial ownership and voting power of these persons with respect to the Company’s common stock prior to the transaction was approximately 77% of the total voting power, and after the SPI Transaction was -0-.

Change in Management

 

On June 28, 2018, Steve Ketter was elected a director of the Company to fill a vacancy on the board of directors.

Following the foregoing changes, Akira Tanabe, Takashi Ozawa, Masashi Takegaki, Motonori Okai, and Hideaki Takahashi resigned as directors effective June 28, 2018, leaving Steve Ketter and Shuya Watanabe as the two directors serving on the board.

Mr. Ketter has not been a party to any transactions with the Company or its officers or directors during the past year.

The Company does not have established committees of the board of directors, so no committee assignment is applicable.
