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 April 29, 2011, GV Global Communications, Inc. (“GV”) provided funding to Forex International Trading Corp. (the "Company") in the aggregate principal amount of $111,000 (the “Loan”). On September 25, 2012, the Company and GV entered into a Conversion Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to convert the Loan into 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company, whihc was approved by the Board of Directors.
Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of GV, into such number of shares of common stock of the Company as determined by dividing the Stated Value (as defined below) by the Conversion Price (as defined below). The Conversion Price for each share is equal to a 50% discount to the average of the lowest three lowest closing bid prices of the Company’s common stock during the 10 day trading period prior to the conversion, representing a discount rate of 50%. The stated value is $11.00 per share (the “Stated Value”). The Series C Preferred Stock has no liquidation preference, does not pay dividends and the holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock that the Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible into. GV has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the Series C Preferred Stock and receive shares of the Company's common stock such that the number of shares of the Company's common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock.
The issuance of shares upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since GV may ultimately convert and sell the full amount issuable on conversion. Although GV may not convert the Series C Preferred Stock if such conversion would cause it to own more than 4.9% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent them from converting some of their holdings, selling the stock and then converting the rest of their holdings. In this way, GV could sell more than this limit while never holding more than this limit. As the investment has been held by GV in excess of one year, the holding period under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, has been satisfied, which would provide GV with the ability to immediately sell the shares of common stock it receives upon conversion under Rule 144 assuming all other obligations have been satisfied. There is no upper limit on the number of shares that may be issued which will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of all holders of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable uponconversion of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock may increase if the market price of the Company’s stock declines. The sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. The continuously adjustable conversion feature could also limit our ability to raise capital at favourable prices in the future. Investors may find the Company an unattractive investment because of the dilution in the Company’s shares caused by the Series C Preferred Stock. In the event GV were to convert in full without taking into account the 4.9% limitation, the Series C Preferred Stock would be converted into 11,000,000 shares of common stock based on the market price of $0.02 as of September 25, 2012.
The issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock was made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated under Regulation D thereunder. GV is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

Readers should review those agreements for a complete understanding of the terms and conditions associated with this transaction.
