Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 23, 2011, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Holder”) for the sale of a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $65,000. The net proceeds of the financing, after deducting placement agent fees, are to be used for our general working capital purposes. The Notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum and matures on December 28, 2011. The Note is convertible into shares of our common stock beginning 180 days from the date of the Note at a conversion price of 60% of the average of the lowest three trading prices of our common stock during the ten trading days on the OTCBB proceeding the conversion date. The number of shares issuable upon conversion shall be proportionally adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, split or similar event.

Unless waived in writing by the Holder, we are prohibited from effecting the conversion of the Note to the extent that as a result of such conversion the Holder thereof would beneficially own more than 4.99% in the aggregate of our issued and outstanding common stock immediately after giving effect to the issuance of common stock upon conversion. While the Note is outstanding, the Holder is entitled to a reduction in the conversion price if we issue any securities for a per share price less than the conversion price in effect available to the Holder.

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Holder is entitled to a right of first refusal on any subsequent equity offerings (or debt offerings with an equity component) that we may engage in for a period of one year.

We are only entitled to prepay the Note from the date of the Note until 90 days thereafter at 150% of the outstanding principal balance, accrued and unpaid interest, default interest, and other amounts required under the Note, so long as the Holder has not elected to convert the Note into our common stock.  We are only entitled to prepay the Note 91 days from the date of the Note up to 180 days from the date of the Note at 175% of the outstanding principal balance, accrued and unpaid interest, default interest, and other amounts required under the Note. We have no right to prepay the Note after 180 days from the date of the Note.

For so long as we have any obligation under the Note, we agreed to certain restrictions on our ability to declare dividends, repurchase our capital stock, borrow money, sell our assets, or advance loans to others.

The Note contains events of default which, if triggered, will result in the requirement to pay a default amount as specified in the Note.  The default amount depends on the particular event of default.  In some cases, the amount we would owe the Holder could be two times the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, accrued and unpaid interest, default interest (at 22% per annum), and other amounts required under the Note.  In other cases, the amount we would owe the Holder would be 150% of the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, accrued and unpaid interest, default interest, and other amounts required under the Note.  Other cases elicit other default amounts as provided under the Note.  The Note also provides for an option for the Holder to take the default amount in shares of our common stock under a formula provided in the Note in lieu of a cash payout.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Purchase Agreement and Note, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
