Item 8.01.   Other Events



  A. SEC Case



On January 20, 2021, in SEC vs. Premier Holding Corp., et.al.., Case No. 8:18-cv-00813-CJC, the United States District Court for the Central District of California entered an order of judgment against Premier and our CEO, Mr. Randall Letcavage (the "Order"). Premier and Mr. Letcavage are currently working with their attorneys to appeal the Order and stay its enforcement.

The Order against Premier and Mr. Letcavage provides for a permanent injunction against Premier and Mr. Letcavage from violating the federal securities laws in the future, plus joint and several monetary liability for Premier and Mr. Letcavage of approximately $8,000,000. The judgment also provides for a 5-year Penny Stock and Officer and Director bar for Mr. Letcavage, and as a result, he has resigned his positions as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer pending the successful overturning of these bars, if any, on appeal.

Premier and Mr. Letcavage intend to file a petition for an immediate appeal of the Order's injunction and officer and director and penny stock bars against Mr. Letcavage and Premier Order with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the "Appeal") since the Company and Mr. Letcavage believe that the Order was decided incorrectly as a matter of law.

Premier and Mr. Letcavage continue to vigorously deny the SEC's allegations upon which the District Court's judgment was based.

The Company reserves the right to amend or modify this form 8-K upon the receipt of additional information or otherwise.
