cont'd Delaware case

"Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

As set forth in the Original 10-K, on December 16, 2021, HCFP/Capital Partners VIB LLC (“VIB”) filed a Motion to Intervene and attached its Complaint in Intervention (the “Intervention Complaint”), which alleges, among other things, that although Laster claims to have acquired 6,000,000 shares of our common stock in June 2017, Laster never owned or acquired those shares because he did not sign or agree to VIB’s operating agreement, which is the only way he could have obtained such shares. If VIB prevails in its Intervention Complaint, then VIB would be the beneficial and record owner of all such 6,000,000 shares of our common stock."
