ITEM 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

     On December 18, 2014 the Company borrowed  $600,000 from Slainte  Ventures,
LLC. The loan was  evidenced  by a  promissory  note that was due and payable on
December 18, 2016.

     On November 14, 2016 the note was amended such that:

     o    the maturity date of the note was extended to December 30, 2017; and

     o    with the  agreement of the Company,  the note could be converted  into
          shares of the Company's common stock.

     The  number of shares to be issued  upon a  conversion  of the note will be
determined by dividing the dollar amount of the principal to be converted by the
Conversion  Price.  The Conversion  Price is 70% of the average closing price of
the Company's common stock for the ten business days  immediately  preceding the
date of the Conversion.

     On November 16, 2016 Slainte Ventures  converted  $100,000 of the principal
amount of the Note into 72,626 shares of the Company's common stock

securities  described  in Item  1.01 of this  report.  The  purchaser  of  these

from registration.
