Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The relevant information in Item 5.02 on this Current Report on Form 8-K, regarding the Stock Options is incorporated herein by reference. The shares of common stock underlying the Stock Options were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D of the Securities Act. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by Conversion Labs, Inc. (the "Company") did not involve a "public offering," as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction manner of the issuance, and number of securities issued. The Company did not undertake an offering or issuance in which it issued a high number of securities to a high number of persons. In addition, Mr. Puopolo had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since he agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a "public offering." Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
