<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:Infinity%;">On January 17, 2019, the Company began soliciting written consents from its stockholders in lieu of a special meeting pursuant to the Consent Solicitation Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 17, 2019 (the&nbsp;&ldquo;<i>Consent Solicitation</i><i> Statement</i>&rdquo;), to approve a stockholder resolution to authorize the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors (the &ldquo;<i>Board</i>&rdquo;), in its sole discretion, without further action of its stockholders, to amend its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (&ldquo;<i>Charter</i>&rdquo;), to implement a reverse stock split of the Company&rsquo;s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (&ldquo;<i>Common Stock</i>&rdquo;), at a ratio of any whole number up to 1-for-200, on or before January 17, 2020, with the exact ratio to be determined by the Board (the&nbsp;&ldquo;<i>Reverse Split</i>&rdquo;).</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:Infinity%;">As of January 11, 2019 (the&nbsp;&ldquo;<i>Record Date</i>&rdquo;), the Company had 244,839,264 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. As of February 22, 2019, the Company had received 144,998,420 written consents approving the Reverse Split, amounting to 59.2% of the Company&rsquo;s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Record Date. In addition, the Company received 86,024,501 written consents against the Reverse Split, and 776,877 written consents representing stockholders&rsquo; decisions to abstain from the vote. Because the Company received written consents approving the Reverse Split from stockholders representing more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the Record Date, the Reverse Split was approved, and the solicitation terminated&nbsp;on February 22, 2019, as contemplated by the Consent Solicitation Statement.</p>

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On January 17, 2019, the Company began soliciting written consents from its stockholders in lieu of a special meeting pursuant to the Consent Solicitation Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 17, 2019 (the "
Consent Solicitation
Statement
"), to approve a stockholder resolution to authorize the Company's Board of Directors (the "
Board
"), in its sole discretion, without further action of its stockholders, to amend its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation ("
Charter
"), to implement a reverse stock split of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("
Common Stock
"), at a ratio of any whole number up to 1-for-200, on or before January 17, 2020, with the exact ratio to be determined by the Board (the "
Reverse Split
").
As of January 11, 2019 (the "
Record Date
"), the Company had 244,839,264 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. As of February 22, 2019, the Company had received 144,998,420 written consents approving the Reverse Split, amounting to 59.2% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Record Date. In addition, the Company received 86,024,501 written consents against the Reverse Split, and 776,877 written consents representing stockholders' decisions to abstain from the vote. Because the Company received written consents approving the Reverse Split from stockholders representing more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of the Record Date, the Reverse Split was approved, and the solicitation terminated on February 22, 2019, as contemplated by the Consent Solicitation Statement.
As a result, the Company may elect to effect the Reverse Split pursuant to the terms set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement on or before January 17, 2020.
