EXPLANATORY NOTE

Premier Biomedical, Inc. is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A to amended its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2020. We are filing this Amendment to provide specific disclosure regarding our reliance on Release No. 34-88465 and the impact of COVID-19.

Except as set forth herein, no other changes are made to the Form 10-K. The Form 10-K continues to speak as of May 14, 2020. Unless expressly stated, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after May 14, 2020.

Inability to file Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 in a timely manner due to circumstances related to COVID-19 global pandemic.

We were unable to file our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K by the original deadline of March 30, 2020 due to circumstances related to the global impact of COVID-19. Our key personnel have been distracted by other priorities associated with workplace closures, school closures, and stay at home orders. Our work efficiencies have been negatively impacted.

We relied on the SEC order dated March 25, 2020 (Release No. 34-88465, which supersedes the SEC’s order dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318) to extend the due date for the filing of our Form 10-K until 45 days after the original due date.
