In its 10-Q filing for the quarter ended 3/31/14, the Company announced its doubts as to the ability of the Corporation to continue as a going concern, and the unlikeliness of obtaining additional capital except from the primary investors in the corporation. On March 4, 2015, Thermo-Energy Corporation (“TMEN”) entered into an Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors (“Assignment”) pursuant to which TMEN assigned all of its assets to the Hollis Meddings Group (“Meddings”). TMEN recently received a copy of a letter from Meddings to creditors of the Company dated July 29, 2016, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto, pursuant to which Meddings stated that (a) Meddings reviewed the assets of TMEN and attempted to sell and/or lease the remaining assets to interested parties, (b) Meddings determined that that the outstanding debt held by perfected secured parties was far in exceess of the value of the remaining assets of the Company and (c) Meddings “adbandoned to the perfected secured parties” all assets of the Company and the perfected secured parties “have sole possession of said assets.”
