Section 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities 

 

On January 12, 2016, the Board of Directors awarded 2,000,000 shares of its common stock to Jose Granados Garcia, its new CEO, in connection with his appointment.  The shares were issued in respect of his past services to AIVN de Mexico, an indirect subsidiary of the Company.  The issuance of the shares was not registered under the 1933 Act in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2).   


Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On January 12, 2016, the Board of Directors appointed Mr. Jose Granados Garcia its Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Garcia will retain his position as President of the Companys indirect subsidiary, AIVN de Mexico.  Mr. Garcia has more than 12 years of mining experience with a background in consulting, identification of viable properties, production projections and advisor in operations.  Mr. Garcia formerly served as vice president of U.S. Precious Metals (ticker: USPR), a publicly traded company.  

There are no understandings between the Company and Mr. Garcia concerning his appointment as CEO except that he was awarded 2,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock upon his appointment, which shares are immediately vested.  Mr. Garcia has not been involved in any proceedings or judgments which would affect his eligibility for this position in the past ten years.


On January 12, 2016, the Company removed Jerry D. Scott, its Chief Operating Officer (COO).  The other members of the Companys management have been unsuccessful in contacting Mr.Scott, and the Company will seek a replacement who will actively carry out the responsibilities of COO.  There were no disagreements with Mr. Scott in connection with his removal; just an inability to communicate with him.  We have been unable to provide a draft 8-K for him to review because of his apparent unavailability.
