announced today that it has completed its acquisition of Adzzup, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation ("Adzzup"), as
previously announced January 18, 2017. The closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement occurred on June 27, 2017 (the "Closing").
Pursuant to the Closing the Company now owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Adzzup, Inc. in exchange for

"With a combined full time staff of over 40 people and a highly scalable sales and support infrastructure, we now have the
foundation to reach our goals. I would like to thank all of the people who have helped us through this process and would
especially like to thank all our shareholders for their continued support."
Following the Closing, the company intends to take a vote to change the Company's name to IZON Technologies (as previously
announced) and will have its head office located in Phoenix, Arizona. The company will be lead by a combination of both
management teams and the board will grow from two to five members. Two new board members have been appointed concurrently with
the Closing of the Adzzup acquisition and one additional member will be appointed by Adzzup shareholders in the near future. The
two newly appointed board members are:
Jeff Hosek (43) - Mr. Hosek has 20 years of experience managing and growing sales organizations. After
attending Penn State University and the Arizona Institute of Business and receiving a degree in accounting, Mr. Hosek became the
Sr Director of Sales and Operations for Primenet, an Internet Service Provider, where he managed the growth in sales from a few
hundred thousand dollars to tens of millions after the company was ultimately purchased by Global Crossing. For the last 5 years,
Mr. Hosek has been CEO of Adzzup, Inc.
Giles Somerville (52) - Mr. Somerville, who attended Georgetown University, has over 20 years of experience
investing and directing early stage private companies. Over the last 5 years, he has been a Managing Partner at Clearview

Preferred Stock Designation:
As a part of the Closing conditions, the Company filed a certificate of designation with the Secretary of State of Oklahoma
for a new class of Preferred Stock deemed "Series E Preferred Stock" (the "Series E"). The Series E stock has 5,000 shares
authorized with a stated value of $1,975 per share and ranks senior to all classes of stock besides Series A Preferred. Each (1)
share of the Series E Preferred stock of the Company held by the holder of record shall be convertible into $1,975 worth of
shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $0.015 per share of common stock. Holders of Series E Preferred Shares shall
be entitled to vote the amount of common stock votes they would be entitled to if they had converted their Series E Preferred
Shares into common stock.
Additionally, prior to the Closing, the Company's former board of directors voted to designate an additional class of
Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Oklahoma known as "Series F Preferred Stock" (the "Series F"). The Series F stock
has 100 shares authorized and ranks pari-passu with Series E. The Series F stock is non-convertible and has no voting rights. The
Series F Stock has a stated value of $4,500 per share. The Company designated the Series F and issued all 100 shares to Venture
Lending & Leasing VI, Inc. and Venture Lending & Leasing VII, Inc. in exchange for the release of certain liens and debts against
the Company. The Company may redeem the Series F stock within the first 12 months from issuance in exchange for $300,000 or
within the first 30 months for $450,000.
