Item 2.03 Creation of Direct Financial Obligation
On August 22, 2009 the Registrant agreed to an Amendment to that certain Convertible Promissory Note dated July 30, 2008. This Amendment became effective as of July 30, 2009. The original Note was for a principal amount of $800,000, bore interest at the rate of 12 percent per annum, and had a maturity date of July 30, 2009. The Registrant and Holder of the Note amended it by providing that: 1. the original maturity date be extended to July 30, 2010, 2. that the accrued interest through July 30, 2009, be converted into 384,000 restricted shares of the Registrant’s common stock, and 3. that the Note Holder be compensated a fee in exchange for the extension. The extension fee is five percent of the original principal amount, or $40,000, paid in the form of 160,000 restricted shares of the Registrant’s common stock. All other terms and conditions of the original Convertible Note remain in effect.
A copy of the Amendment to the Convertible Promissory Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. This brief description of the Amendment is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached.
