Halberd Corp - Update July 13, 2020 - Addresses Certain Issues

JACKSON CENTER, PA / ACCESSWIRE / July 13, 2020 / Halberd Corp. (OTC PINK:HALB) today issued a statement to clarify certain items within its charter regarding allowable debt. There have been inaccurate rumors that have put the company in a negative light. One of these is that the company intends to take on convertible debt. Nothing could be further from the truth. Halberd's corporate charter prohibits it from issuing any kind of convertible financial instrument, debt or preferred stock. See:

William A. Hartman, Chairman, President & CEO of Halberd added, "Our filings have been very clear on what we have done and what we intend to do. We are well aware of the dangers associated with toxic lenders and convertible debt. We refuse to go down that rabbit hole. Our corporate articles are structured to strictly prohibit it. We have investment commitments that do not require the issuance of convertible debt instruments."

Mr. Hartman further explained, "There was yet one other misconception floated on I-Hub. On May 14, 2020, Halberd Corporation engaged in a holding company reorganization for the purpose of eliminating potential liability exposure from past operations. Halberd Corporation engaged in this sophisticated corporate mechanism designed to eliminate liabilities and potential liabilities from the successor public company corporate structure, in this case, Halberd Corporation and its various COVID-19 endeavors. All liabilities are effectively eliminated from the public company to which its operations might otherwise be exposed. No matter how effective the due diligence may be, one can never be too careful. The structure appears to have first codified in Delaware Code Title 8. Corporations § 251, and is a strategy employed by Xerox Corporation. The Company acted to protect its precious operations from any such contingencies, as did such companies as Google Inc., Ford Motor Credit Co., AOL Time Warner Inc. and many others."

Investor caution/added risk for investors in companies claiming involvement in COVID-19 initiatives -

On April 8, 2020, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and William Hinman, the Director of the Division of Corporation Finance, issued a joint public statement on the importance of disclosure during the COVID-19 crisis.

The SEC and Self-Regulatory Organizations are targeting public companies that claim to have products, treatment or other strategies with regard to COVID-19.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak. Additionally, new information may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or the Company, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption, reduced customer traffic and reduced operations. Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

We further caution investors that our primary focus and goal is to battle this pandemic for the good of the world. As such, it is possible that we may find it necessary to make disclosures which are consistent with that goal, but which may be adverse to the pecuniary interests of the Company and of its shareholders.
