Effective October 22, 2013, Mr. Henry Michon resigned as a director and committee member of the Board of Directors of Sugarmade, Inc. At the time of Mr. Michon's resignation, he was a board member and a committee member of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the company. The company believes that Mr. Michon's resignation was a result of a disagreement with some members of the Board of Directors regarding certain board resolutions that were passed at the September 18, 2013 board meeting, which Mr. Michon believes were self-interested transactions. The company has explained to Mr. Michon that each of the resolutions was unanimously approved by the disinterested directors of the company who were present at the board meeting on September 18, 2013, and that the approved transactions remove approximately $591,071 of debt from the company's balance sheet.
The company believes that Mr. Michon's resignation was also caused by differences of opinion between Mr. Michon and other board members regarding the conduct of the Board, the company's business operations and other transactions of the company not in the ordinary course of its business.
