Extension for a period of two (2) years of the Employment Agreement between IASO BioMed, Inc. and Duane Knight, originally effective March 1, 2017; and

Extension for a period of two (2) years of the Scientific Advisory Board Agreement by and between IASO BioMed, Inc. and Dr. Costas Karatzas dated as of March 1, 2018.

Each of the above Agreements were extended under the terms and conditions contained in the Agreements in effect at the time of the extensions with no alteration except for the new Agreement end dates. Each of the directors abstained on voting for extension of their Agreement.

In March 2017 the Registrant entered into the Employment Agreement with Mr. Schell, its Chief Executive Officer and a director, for an initial two-year term. The base salary of $150,000 per annum is payable to the CEO only upon the Company’s raising of an additional $750,000. Mr. Schell will assume his responsibilities on a part time basis until requested by the Board of Directors to become a full-time executive. The CEO also received warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.40 per share for a period of five years after issuance, 125,000 warrants vested upon signing the agreement and the remaining 125,000 vested in March 2018. The CEO will also be eligible to earn discretionary annual performance bonuses upon meeting certain objectives as determined by the Board of Directors. The agreement provides for severance payments.
