On October 14, 2005, NCT Group, Inc. ("NCT") issued Carole Salkind an 8%
convertible note in the principal amount of $300,000, for which Ms. Salkind paid
NCT $300,000 in cash. Also on October 14, 2005, NCT issued Carole Salkind a 12%
convertible note in the principal amount of $1,001,329.96 to cure NCT's default
on payment of the initial interest installment due under the $5,000,000 note
dated December 22, 2004. The principal amount of this note represents the
interest installment due October 1, 2005 ($498,082.19), default interest thereon
and interest default penalty (10% of the then outstanding principal). On October
18, 2005, NCT issued Carole Salkind an 8% convertible note in the principal
amount of $968,035.46 to cure NCT's default on repayment of two notes dated
April 14, 2005. The principal amount of this note represents the aggregate
principal rolled over ($847,970.18), default penalty (10% of the principal in
default) and accrued interest. The notes are secured by substantially all of the
assets of NCT. The notes mature six months from the dates of issuance. The notes
bear interest at the stated rate until the due dates of the notes, and bear
interest at a default rate equal to the stated rate of interest plus 5% on any
amount of principal or interest that is not paid when due. Interest is payable
upon maturity of the notes. At the election of Ms. Salkind, the notes may be
converted into 463,135,799 shares of NCT common stock at a conversion price per
share of $0.0049 or exchanged for shares of common stock of any subsidiary of
NCT (except Pro Tech Communications, Inc.) that makes a public offering of its
common stock (at the public offering price). The notes contain events of
default, any one of which (if not cured) triggers a default penalty of 10% of
the then outstanding principal. If triggered, the default penalty, along with
the outstanding principal and accrued interest, becomes immediately due and
payable. Events of default include the failure to pay principal and interest
when due and the failure to issue shares of common stock upon exercise of
conversion rights.
In conjunction with the issuance of these notes, NCT issued Ms. Salkind
five-year warrants to acquire 42,500,000 shares of NCT common stock at an
exercise price per share of $0.0049.
The issuance of the notes and warrants was not registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption set forth in Section
4(2) of the Securities Act relating to transactions by an issuer not involving a
public offering.
