ITEM 5.02—DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS AND CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS

Effective on August 4, 2016, Mark A. Zorko, resigned as Interim Chief Financial Officer, and was replaced by Laxmi Prasad.

Mr. Prasad, currently designated as head of the Registrant’s Global Operations, is also becoming Chief Financial Officer on an interim basis until a full-time CFO is identified and hired by the Registrant.  He acquired control of the Registrant in November, 2014, and has devoted the majority of his time since then to developing the Registrant’s business, even after voluntarily relinquishing majority ownership, as disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 27, 2016.

Mr. Prasad has held CEO, CFO and CKO responsibilities for several public and private companies in his 25+ years in the Financial Services Field, in Hyderabad, India.  He has considerable experience and knowledge in corporate structuring, management, taxation and cross-border transactions, and has structured more than $3 billion in transaction opportunities. As a social commitment to encourage first-line entrepreneurship, Mr. Prasad privately counsels and offers time for many startup entrepreneurs from India, to establish their businesses in the United States and otherwise to gain access to global markets.

In his current position as the Registrant’s Chief Knowledge Officer, Laxmi Prasad established an Advanced Tax Planning Practice which advises more than 110,000 tax customers and indoctrinated Self-Directed IRAs as a vehicle for Indian migrants in the US to invest their tax deferred retirement assets in India.  

He was previously a Registered Investment Adviser Representative, from March 2000 to April 2004, for Prudential Insurance Company of America and Principal Financial Group, with more than $125 million in underwritten life insurance.   While at Prudential, Mr. Prasad authored a "Developing Nations Fund," which planned covering $25 Billion in Life Assurance as a Legacy Fund structure to utilize life insurance policies from willing donors as collateral pledge for the IMF and the World Bank, to extend sovereign debt to emerging countries.  The plan was that the debt raised would be repaid out of maturing life policies without any burden to any State, including any currency translations effects.  However, the attack on September 11, 2001 sidelined this plan.

In Hyderabad India, and before he emigrated to the United States, Laxmi was one of the most recognized IPO Consultants from January, 1990 until September, 1996, during which time he successfully managed five IPOs.  Academically, Mr. Prasad holds CPA (US) and ACA (India) Professional Accounting Certifications, and has authored many financial and investment articles for private circulation.

Mr. Prasad has not been the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which he was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time. Mr. Prasad has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding, nor has he been the subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations, and other minor offenses), or subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.
