On October 5, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), Gulf West Security Network, Inc., fka NuLife Sciences, Inc.

(“NuLife Sub”) and LJR Security Services, Inc. (“LJR”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and in exchange for all one hundred (100) issued and outstanding shares of LJR, Lou Resweber, the sole shareholder of LJR received one thousand (1,000) shares of series D senior convertible preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”) of the Company, convertible into fifty million two hundred thirty-nine thousand five hundred forty-one (50,239,541) shares of common stock of the Company, and one share of series C super-voting preferred stock of NuLife which grants the holder 50.1% of the votes of NuLife at all times. As of the Closing Date LJR is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1

 

LJR is active in the engineering, design, installation, remote monitoring and after-market servicing of electronic intrusion alert and fire detection systems for homes and businesses (the “alarm industry”). LJR is based in Lafayette, LA. LJR’s President is Mr. Louis J. Resweber, a long-time veteran of the alarm industry, who has also previously served as a Corporate Officer, Board Member and Executive Consultant to a number of NYSE and NASDAQ-listed public companies over the past 35 years see Item 5.02 below.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

 

On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, LJR merged with NuLife Sub (a subsidiary of GWSN), LJR is the surviving corporation. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and in exchange for all one hundred (100) issued and outstanding shares of LJR, Lou Resweber, the sole shareholder of LJR received one thousand (1,000) shares of series D senior convertible preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”) of the Company, convertible into fifty million two hundred thirty-nine thousand five hundred forty-one (50,239,541) shares of common stock of the Company, and one share of series C super-voting preferred stock of NuLife which grants the holder 50.1% of the votes of NuLife at all times. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, shares of LJR held by the Lou Resweber, the sole shareholder of LJR were cancelled and 100 shares of LJR were issued to GWSN.

As a result of the Merger Agreement, and the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock, Lou Resweber, the sole shareholder of LJR, will hold a controlling interest in the Company, and may unilaterally determine the election of the Board and other substantive matters requiring approval of the Company’s stockholders.

Pubco further covenants that immediately following the Effective Time, Pubco will effect cancellations of outstanding shares of Pubco Common Stock and that there will be no more than 48,669,098 pre-Merger shares of Pubco Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time on a fully-diluted basis, and that no other pre-Merger common or preferred stock or equity securities or any options, warrants, rights or other agreements or instruments convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into common or preferred stock or other equity securities of Pubco shall be issued or outstanding, except as set forth on Schedule 1.09(c).

(d)               Neither the Merger Consideration Shares issuable to the LJR Stockholder in exchange for shares of LJR Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement nor the shares of Pubco Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Pubco D Preferred Shares will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any State, and each stock certificate evidencing such shares shall bear a restrictive legend substantially in the following form:

THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF NULIFE SCIENCES, INC.

The LJR Stockholder has full right, power, and authority to transfer, assign, convey, and deliver his LJR Common Stock; and delivery thereof at the Effective Time pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement will convey good and marketable title to such LJR Common Stock free and clear of any claims, charges, equities, liens, security interests, and encumbrances.
