On June 18, 2020, the sublease (license) agreement was terminated. Our former Chief Executive Officer and current board member, Peter Bordes, is a stockholder of OneQube, Inc. He stepped down as Chief Executive Officer of OneQube, Inc. in June 2019 and continues to serve as Chairman of the Board of OneQube, Inc.
