Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 17, 2018 the Company received notice that the
District Court in Florida, in the Matter of Cromogen
Biotechnology Corporation, an El Salvadorian corporation vs.
Earth Science Tech, Inc., a Nevada corporation, confirmed the
arbitration award that had been previously granted by the
arbitration panel. The award and judgment come after several
years in arbitration/litigation and stem from a matter involving
a distribution agreement and alleged actions of prior management.
The Companys current management is now pursuing certain options
and is confident that it will be able to address the judgment in
a manner that will not unduly interfere with its ability to
execute on its business plan; and as such, it will continue to
work toward achieving its previously and recently announced
objectives. Under the options available to the Company to address
the aforementioned judgment, members of the Companys legal team
and management are optimistic that there remain solid legal basis
for the judgment (or approximately 97% of it) to be overturned,
denied, vacated or otherwise rendered unenforceable or
ineffective. Reference is made to the Companys Registration
Statement filed on Form 10 dated May 15, 2018 for a more detailed
description of the arbitration award itself that is the subject
of the judgment.
