Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 24, 2015 the Registrant filed an Form N-54c with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC’) to withdraw its election under section 54(a) of the Investment Company Act. After careful consideration of the 1940 Act requirements applicable to BDCs, an evaluation of the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern as an investment company, the cost of 1940 Act compliance needs, and a thorough assessment of potential alternative business models; the Board of Directors determined that continuation as a BDC is no longer in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. On June 19, 2015 the Company filed a Definitive 14-C Information Statement with the SEC announcing that it would withdraw its election as a BDC after receiving unanimous consent from the Board of Directors and approval of shareholders holding 60.33% of its outstanding shares to do so.

The Company will now pursue a business model whereby it will continue to provide incubator and development services with a focus on building, operating and advising technology companies rather than making venture investments (the "New Business Model"). Specifically, the Company will continue to help customers and partners (“Clients”) to build and commercialize new technology products and help grow their business. As compensation for these services, the Company proposes to receive revenue to sustain operations and may receive shares of the Clients. The Company anticipates that the shares it receives as compensation will be assessed at par value. The Company will at all times report shares it receives as compensation on its periodic reports filed with the SEC.

In addition, the Company may acquire business entities by an exchange of shares. There can be no assurance that a merger, if any, will take place. The Company may also act as a holding company for operating businesses.

Under the New Business Model, the Company will at all times conduct its activities in such a way that it will not be deemed an "investment company" subject to regulation under the 1940 Act. Thus, it will not hold itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities.
