Item 8.01 Other Events.

Ozop Surgical Corp.. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K as a condition to seeking relief provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission Order under Section 36 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), granting exemptions from specified provisions of the Exchange Act, as set forth in SEC Release No. 34-88318 (the “Order”). By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company is relying on the Order to receive an additional 45 days to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the “10-K”). The 10-K would have been due on March 30, 2020. With this extension the Company expects to file the 10-K on or before May 14, 2020.

As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the chain reactions it has caused throughout the world, the Company has been adversely affected due to its location and inability to work as normal. This has affected the efficiency of the Company’s annual audit and the overall timeline of the Company’s preparation of the 10-K to be filed with the SEC.

The Company has attempted to take measures to overcome the adverse impact derived from the COVID-19 outbreak related to the annual audit and filing of the 10-K. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, despite the challenge of the slow recovery to normal operations under various restrictions, the Company believes that it will be able to complete the annual audit and file the 10-K within the additional 45 days granted by the Order on or before May 14, 2020.

The Company supplements the following risk factor due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 outbreak:

We are susceptible to general economic conditions, natural catastrophic events and public health crises, and a potential downturn in advertising and marketing spending by advertisers could adversely affect our operating results in the near future.

Our business is subject to the impact of natural catastrophic events, such as earthquakes, or floods, public health crisis, such as disease outbreaks, epidemics, or pandemics, and all these could result in a decrease or sharp downturn of economies, including our markets and business locations in the current and future periods. The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) resulted in increased travel restrictions, and shutdown of businesses, which may cause slower recovery of the economy. We may experience impact from quarantines, market downturns and changes in customer behavior related to pandemic fears and impact on our workforce if the virus continues to spread. In addition, one or more of our customers, partners, service providers or suppliers may experience financial distress, delayed or defaults on payment, file for bankruptcy protection, sharp diminishing of business, or suffer disruptions in their business due to the outbreak. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results will depend on future developments and reactions throughout the world, which are highly uncertain and will include emerging information concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken by governments and private businesses to attempt to contain the coronavirus. It is likely to result in a potential material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Wider-spread COVID-19 globally could prolong the deterioration in economic conditions and could cause decreases in or delays in advertising spending and reduce and/or negatively impact our short-term ability to grow our revenues. Any decreased collectability of accounts receivable, bankruptcy of small and medium businesses, or early termination of agreements due to deterioration in economic conditions could negatively impact our results of operations
