The purpose of this Information Statement is to inform the stockholders of record, as of the close of business on April 24, 2020 (the “Record Date”), of shares of common stock and preferred stock of Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), that stockholders representing approximately 74.3% of our outstanding common stock (the “Majority Stockholders”) executed a written consent dated April 24, 2020 (the “Written Consent”), to approve the following action (the “Action”): the adoption of an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which among other things, changes the name of the Company to Rivulet Media, Inc., and increases the number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue.
 
The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”) permits holders of a majority of the voting power to take stockholder action by written consent. The Written Consent constitutes the consent of a majority of the total number of votes entitled to vote on the Action and is sufficient under Section 228 of the DGCL to approve the Action. Accordingly, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of the Action. Additionally, the Company is not required to and will not hold a meeting of its stockholders to approve the Action. We encourage you to read the attached Information Statement carefully, including the exhibit, for further information.
 
In accordance with Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the approval of the Action described herein will be deemed effective on the date that is 20 calendar days after the date this Information Statement has been mailed or furnished to our stockholders. We anticipate that this Information Statement will be mailed on or about April 29, 2020, to stockholders of record on the Record Date.
 
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. THE ACTION DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT HAS ALREADY BEEN APPROVED BY WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE STOCKHOLDERS OWNING A MAJORITY OF THE OUTSTANDING SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Change in Control
 
On March 23, 2020, Debbie Rasmussen and Klusman Family Holdings (together, “Buyers”) and David Koos and Heather Cassady (together, “Sellers”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Buyers purchased from Sellers, and Sellers sold to Buyers, 4,364,235 shares of the outstanding common stock of the Company (the “Purchase Agreement”). Following the closing of the transaction set forth in the Purchase Agreement, which occurred on March 26, 2020, Buyers owned approximately 55.8% of the Company’s common stock outstanding at that time. The amount of consideration for the purchase of such shares was $215,000 and the source of such consideration was a loan from an unaffiliated third party.
 
 
 
 
APPROVAL OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFIATE OF INCORPORATION
 
On April 24, 2020, the Majority Stockholders approved via the Written Consent an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Restated Certificate”). The following summary of the Restated Certificate is qualified in its entirety by the entire text of the Restated Certificate, which is filed as an exhibit to this Information Statement and is incorporated by reference into this Information Statement.
 
Among other changes, the Restated Certificate:
 
Changes the name of the Company to Rivulet Media, Inc.
Increases the number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue from One Hundred Million (100,000,000) to Two Hundred Million (200,000,000), par value $0.0001 each. The number of shares of preferred stock the Company is authorized to issue remains unchanged at Twenty Million (20,000,000), par value of $0.0001 each.
Eliminates the class of Non-Voting Preferred Stock, of which Two Hundred Thousand (200,000) shares, par value $1.00 each, had been authorized and none were outstanding. 
Requires the Company to indemnify, advance expenses, and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any person who was, is made, or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit, or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Company.
Clarifies that the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend, or repeal the Bylaws of the Company without any action on the part of the stockholders, provided that any such adoption, amendment, or repeal may be amended, altered, or repealed by the stockholders.
 
There are no material differences between the common stock and preferred stock currently outstanding and as authorized by the Restated Certificate. The additional shares of common stock authorized by the Restated Certificate are identical to the shares of common stock the Company had already authorized. The reason for the increase in authorized common stock is to provide the Company greater flexibility in future capital raising activities and other general corporate purposes as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time. The reason for the elimination of the Non-Voting Preferred Stock is that none was outstanding and Company management believes it will not be needed in the future. The reasons for the other changes include to acknowledge a change in the anticipated business focus of the Company, to enable the company to better attract and retain qualified directors and officers, and to update the Certificate of Incorporation to include provisions typically found in the charters of other Delaware Corporations.
 
EFFECTIVE DATE
 
Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act, the Action shall not be effective until a date at least 20 calendar days after the date on which the Information Statement is mailed to the stockholders of record on the Record Date. We anticipate that this Information Statement will be mailed on or about April 29, 2020, and that the Action will become effective on or about the close of business on May 19, 2020.
