RESIGNATION OF SOUTH AFRICAN CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER
 
On September 7, 2012, the Company’s South African Chief Financial Officer (“SA CFO”) resigned. It was determined that the SA CFO had committed certain illegal acts, fraud and certain misrepresentations of facts. Due to the SA CFO’s actions, certain taxes were not paid. In addition, the applicable tax forms were not filed during the proper periods. The Company has engaged tax experts to assist in the tax process. The Company also discovered approximately $85,473 (net of repayments of approximately $42,000) and $42,109 of cash that was misappropriated by the SA CFO during the periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively (presented as “other receivable” on the Company’s combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2011), and approximately $128,000 in total for the period October 2011 through September 2012. As of December 31, 2013, approximately $78,000 has been recovered by the Company and payment plans are in place for the remainder.
