On November 5, 2013, the Company entered into a Conversion Agreement with Marvin Maslow (the "Holder") pursuant to which the Company agreed to convert $1,057,608 of debt (the "Debt"), including principal and interest, currently owed to Holder into 105,761 shares of Series D Preferred Shares of the Company. The Debt has been outstanding since 2007. The above transactions were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Series D Preferred Stock does not pay dividends and does not have a liquidation preference. The Holder of the Series D Preferred Stock will be entitled to 20 votes for each share of common stock that the Series D Preferred Stock are convertible into. The Series D Preferred Stock has a conversion price of $0.055 (the Conversion Price) and a stated value of $10.00 (the Stated Value) per share. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into such number of shares of common stock of the Company as determined by dividing Stated Value by the Conversion Price. Holder may only convert the Series D Preferred Stock upon certain Convertible Promissory Notes, whether presently outstanding or to be issued, issued to three accredited investors (the "Note Investors") in accordance with those certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreements between the Company and the Note Investors dated April 3, 2013, have either (i) been converted in full or in part by the Note Investors into shares of common stock of the Company, (ii) the Note Investors have sold or assigned all or a part of their Convertible Promissory Notes to third parties, or (iii) the Note Investors have been paid in full or in part. The Holder will only be permitted to convert such number of Series D Preferred Stock equal to the pro rata amount of the Convertible Promissory Notes converted, assigned or paid. In the event the Note Investors agree in writing that these restrictions may be terminated, then the Holder will be entitled to convert the Series D Preferred Stock at the Holders election and the above restrictions will be null and void. Additionally, Holder may not convert the Series D Preferred Stock until the ten day average daily trading volume is greater than $20,000. In the event the Holder terminates its consulting agreement or violates a non-compete covenant, then the Series D Preferred Shares shall be returned to the Company for cancellation and the Company shall be obligated on the Debt.
