Item 8.01            Other Items.

On July 15, 2015 we were informed by our corporate agent in Nevada that it had received on our behalf a summons in connection with a complaint filed on July 10, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Central District of California entitled “Stemage Skin Care LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company vs. NuGene International, Inc. et al.”(Civil Action No.8:15-cv-01078-AG-JCG). The complaint also names as defendants NuGene, Inc. (a California corporation), Mohammad Ali Kharazmi (our Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors), Mohammad Saeed Kharazmi (the Chairman of our Board of Directors), Kathy Ireland Worldwide (a California corporation), Stephen Roseberry, Steve Rosenblum and Erik Sterling. The complaint contains allegations of damage asserted to be grounded on

• copyright infringement,
• interference with contract,
• intentional interference with prospective economic advantage,
• negligent interference with prospective economic advantage, and
• conspiracy.

The complaint allegedly arises out of an August 20, 2012 agreement among the plaintiff and kathy ireland inc. ("KI") pursuant to which KI made Kathy Ireland available to perform “Ambassador Services" as defined within that agreement. That agreement effectively terminated in October 2014 and is the subject of a separate arbitration with KI and Kathy Ireland before the American Arbitration Association. The Company believes that this complaint is without merit and intends a vigorous defense in this matter.
