Section 35 – ~~Securities~~Corporate Governance and ~~Trading Markets~~Management

Item 35.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

~~Unregistered~~On ~~Sales~~July 13, 2015, Carter Read resigned his positions as our interim President, Secretary and as a member of ~~Equity~~our ~~Securities~~Board of Directors. On July 20, 2015, he resigned from positions with Newport Coachworks, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary. Mr. Read did not hold any positions on any Board committees at the time of his resignation. We are not aware of any disagreements Mr. Read had with us required to be disclosed under this Item. We will (i) provide Mr. Read with a copy of this disclosure in Item 5.02 the same day we file this Form 8-K with the Commission; and (ii) provide Mr. Read with the opportunity to furnish us as promptly as possible with a letter addressed to us stating whether he agrees with the statements made by us in response to this Item 5.02 and, if not, stating the respects in which he does not agree; and (iii) file any letter received by us from Mr. Read with the Commission as an exhibit by an amendment to this Form 8-K within two business days after receipt by us.

AsOn ~~noted~~August ~~in Item 5.02 below~~12, ~~on May 14~~2015, ~~2015 we appointed Mr. Ben Rainwater and Ms. Agnes Cha to~~ our Board of Directors ~~and~~ appointed Mr. ~~Rainwater~~Fred Luke as our ~~Chief~~President ~~Executive Officer~~ and ~~Ms. Cha as our Senior Vice-President~~Secretary, ~~Corporate Affairs. Pursuant to these appointments we agreed to issue Mr. Rainwater~~ and appointed Ms. Agnes Cha ~~150,000~~as ~~shares of~~ our ~~Series A Convertible Preferred Stock each. When issued~~Treasurer, ~~the~~effective ~~issuances~~on ~~will~~August ~~be exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933~~12, ~~since the investors are either accredited or sophisticated investors and are familiar with our operations~~2015.

~~Section~~Fred 5Luke, –age ~~Corporate~~68, ~~Governance~~was appointed President and ~~Management~~Secretary on August 12, 2015. He has been a member of our Board of Directors since January 11, 2011. Mr. Luke was previously our President from 2011 to 2012. Mr. Luke has over 40 years of experience in providing operational and financial consulting services. He has assisted companies with entity formation and business planning, multi-national mergers and acquisitions, reverse mergers, corporate finance, debt restructuring, and arranging conventional debt and equity financing. Since 1970, Mr. Luke has provided consulting and management services and has served as a director, chairman, chief accounting officer, president and chief executive officer of over 100 public and privately-held companies. He has worked in Asia, Europe, Canada, and North Africa.

Mr. Luke’s prior experience of over forty years of assisting companies with entity formation and business planning, multi-national mergers and acquisitions, reverse mergers, corporate finance, debt restructuring, and arranging conventional debt and equity financing, along with his previous experience with the Company, led us to believe that the Company needs to have Mr. Luke back in an executive management position, not just on our Board of Directors.

~~Item~~Mr. 5Luke does not own any shares of our common stock or preferred stock and has not received or accrued any compensation of any kind from the Company for over one and one-half years, but does have an option to acquire 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.0242 per share.

Item 98.01 Other Events.

~~Financial~~On ~~Statements~~or about July 21, 2015, our current management became aware that the landlord of Newport Coachworks’ warehouse and ~~Exhibits~~manufacturing facility located on Wilson Street in Riverside, California, had locked our personnel out of the facility due to failure to timely pay the rent. At the time we were locked out of the facility, certain assets of Newport Coachworks were inside. We also became aware that the facility may have been leased to a different shuttle bus manufacturing company, unrelated to us. We are currently negotiating with the landlord of the Wilson Street facility, as well as the new tenant, regarding the facility and Newport Coachworks’ assets in the hopes of repossessing the facility and gaining possession of Newport Coachworks’ assets. Those negotiations are ongoing. We are also attempting to determine from Mr. Read and the landlord of the Wilson Street facility exactly what has happened with Newport Coachworks and its assets and determine the exact nature of the relationship, if any, between those parties.
