Exemption From Registration. The shares of Common Stock referenced herein were issued in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, ("Securities Act"), as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act. Our reliance upon the exemption under Rule 903 of Regulation S of the Securities Act was based on the fact that the sales of the securities were completed in an "offshore transaction", as defined in Rule 902(h) of Regulation S. We did not engage in any directed selling efforts, as defined in Regulation S, in the United States in connection with the sale of the securities. The investor was not a US person, as defined in Regulation S, and was not acquiring the securities for the account or benefit of a US person.

On November 21, 2018 the Company's Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Christos Kapatos resigned his position as Chief Technology Officer and as a consultant due to the Company's breach of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 of that certain Consulting Agreement originally entered into April 16, 2014 (as amended from time to time, including, without limitation, Addendum 1, Addendum 2 and Addendum 3, collectively, the "Consulting Agreement"), all of which agreements have been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company declined to cure the noticed breach(es) in the ten (10) day period as allotted from notice date and subsequently accepted the resignation of Dr. Kapatos effective November 21, 2018.

Until such time as a new Chief Technology Officer is appointed Dr. Hari Elangovan, an employee of the Company since 2014, will be assuming a leadership role in the ongoing development of the Company's technology. Dr. Elangovan began his career as a medical doctor, having graduated in Chennai, India with a medical degree (M.B.B.S.) of First Class Distinction.
