(e)       Neither Mr. Riggs or RCI has, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The responses to Items 4, 5 and 6 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

On August 2, 2017, the Issuer and RCI completed a debt conversion pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement dated August 1, 2017 (the “Conversion Agreement”). Pursuant to the Conversion Agreement the Issuer issued to RCI 5,900,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock in consideration for cancellation of the Issuer’s indebtedness owed to RCI in the total amount of $379,428. RCI instructed that the 5,900,000 common shares be issued 2,250,000 shares to RCI and 3,650,000 shares to Patrick L. Riggs.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The responses to Items 3, 5 and 6 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

On July 28, 2017, the Issuer entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with seven investors for the sale of 34,500,000 shares of common stock for $345,000. As a condition to closing the sale of shares under the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer was required to effectuate the conversion of indebtedness owed by the Issuer to RCI to common stock of the Issuer. This was memorialized in the Conversion Agreement and closed August 2, 2017.

Mr. Riggs, from time to time, may enter into discussions with directors and officers of the Issuer, and other shareholders or third parties in connection with his investment in the Issuer. Such discussions may include one or more of management, the board, other stockholders of the Issuer and other persons to discuss the Issuer’s business, strategies and other matters related to the Issuer.

CUSIP No. 46056T102 Page 5 of 6

Mr. Riggs and RCI intend to review the investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may from time to time and at any time in the future depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any discussions referenced above, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the board, price levels of the common shares, other investment opportunities available to them, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, take such actions with respect to the investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including: (i) acquiring additional common shares and/or other equity, debt, notes, other securities, or derivative or other instruments that are based upon or relate to the value of the common shares (collectively, “Securities”) of the Issuer in the open market or otherwise; (ii) disposing of any or all of the Securities in the open market or otherwise; (iii) engaging in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Securities; or (iv) proposing or considering one or more of the actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The figure for Mr. Riggs includes 2,250,000 shares held by RCI and 3,650,000 shares held by Mr. Riggs.

Mr. Riggs may be deemed to have the sole power to vote or direct the vote of (and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of) all 5,900,000 common shares of the Issuer because he is the sole officer, director, and stockholder of RCI.

(c)       On August 2, 2017, the Issuer and RCI completed a debt conversion under the terms of the Conversion Agreement. Pursuant to the Conversion Agreement the Issuer issued to RCI 5,900,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock in consideration for cancellation of the Issuer’s indebtedness owed to RCI in the total amount of $379,428. RCI instructed that the 5,900,000 common shares be issued 2,250,000 shares to RCI and 3,650,000 shares to Patrick L. Riggs.

Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, nor the performance of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation the issuance of the Shares will: (i) constitute a breach or violation of the Company’s constituent documents; (ii) conflict with or constitute (with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice) a breach of, or default under any material agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party or by which its assets are bound; or (iii) violate any court order, judgment, administrative or judicial order, writ, decree, stipulation, arbitration award or injunction or statute, law, ordinance, rule and regulation applicable to the Company.
