MBB doesn't need to spend any money to take complete control of LLEG's assets. Indeed for all we know he may already have done so.

That's the sort of thing that Pink Sheet CEOs tend to do, but they always forget to notify the other shareholders for a few months or years. That's why CEOs like Mike Bartoszek like the lack of control and transparency that's part of the Pink Sheets.
Another way is by diluting the heck out of the float, perhaps by issuing tons of convertibles that get converted, or by entering into an unfavorable toxic finance deal with associates on the other end of the financing, and thereby making sure the majority of the new shares are controlled by him and his cronies. That's a fairly traditional Pink Sheet CEO tactic too.
