Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On June 15, 2011, BlueCrestVenture Finance Master Fund Limited (“BlueCrest”)agreed with the Company and Lotus Funding Group, LLC (“Lotus”) to split the note evidencing the BlueCrest Loan originated May 31, 2007 into two notes aggregating the outstanding principal balance, with the new note being in the principal amount of $139,729.82 (the “New Note”). The New Note was assigned to Lotus in consideration for a payment by them to BlueCrest of $139,729.82, and modified. Under the terms of the Partial Assignment and Modification Agreement Lotus agreed to take assignment from BlueCrest, in July, August, September, October, November, and December 2011, for an amount in each case equal to the Debt payment, and otherwise on the same terms as the June 15, 2011 purchase. The aggregate amount of the six future payments totals $838,380.
The New Note is a subordinated convertible note bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum, payable at maturity. The New Note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a price that is 50% less than the average of the three (3) lowest closing prices for the Company’s common stock for the ten (10) trading days prior to the Lenders’ election to exercise its conversion right; provided, however, that if the Company engages in a financing transaction that provides for a pricing discount that is greater than 50%, then the discount allowed to Lotus will be increased to such greater discount percentage.
We believe that the issuance of the New Note, in exchange for the original note in the same amount, constituted a valid exchange of securities under Section 3(a)9 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and otherwise is exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Act. The Company will have no obligation to file any registration statement with respect to the New Note or the shares.
