Rescue Plan

The Chairman noted that the details of the rescue plan could not be discussed at the AGM much to the dismay of the shareholders present. He and CEO Ivan Berry attempted to sway concerns as best a possible by committing to see the catalog of songs through even though they would no longer be actively involved in the operations of the company as Chairman and CEO.  They revealed that the rescue plan was before the regulators and believe that it is in the best interest of the shareholders of the company. They further stated that news on the rescue plan should surface within two to three weeks.

In light of this CEO, Ivan Berry did not make a presentation to the AGM about the plans for the upcoming year due to the confidential nature of the rescue plan.

All shareholders present gave their views. One shareholder grilled the panel on what was done regarding the songwriting camps as well as the collection methods used by the company. Based on the annual report the company is still owed royalty income backdating to 2012. The Directors also noted that they had not taken any directors fees as well as the CEO has not been paid during the lifetime of the company.
