Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

Pursuant to the appointment of Frank Mambuca to Cinnabar Venture, Inc.’s Board of Directors, we issued 100,000 options in shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share, to Mr. Mambuca. These options are convertible at $.01 and immediately exercisable.

These options were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Act'). These options qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a 'public offering' as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares or options to a high number of investors. In addition, this individual had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since he agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a 'public offering.' Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
