Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
On April 20, 2011, Anavex issued a $250,000 convertible debenture to one investor.  The convertible debenture will mature on the earliest of (a) April 20, 2012; (b) conversion of the debentures; or (c) early retirement of the debentures.

On May 4, 2011, Anavex issued a $500,000 convertible debenture to one investor with the same maturity date .

The remainder of the $1,000,000 in convertible debentures is expected to be funded by the end of May 2011.

The convertible debenture s may be converted at any time, prior to maturity, into units of the Company at a conversion price of $3.00 per share.  Each unit is comprised of one share of common stock and one warrant, with each warrant exercisable into one additional common share for two years at an exercise price of $4.00. The convertible debenture is an unsecured obligation and carries an interest rate equal to the 8% per annum on the principal amount.  The convertible debenture s will mature on the earliest of (a) April 20 , 2012; (b) conversion of the debentures; or (c) early retirement of the debentures.
 
In connection with the issuance of the convertible debentures, the Company paid $100,000 in fees to Weiser Capital Ltd. of the Bahamas.  Concurrently, Weiser Capital Ltd. exercised its right to acquire 33,334 shares and 33,334 warrants of the Company at an aggregate purchase price of $100,000.  The warrants will be exercisable at $4.00 per share for two years.
 
We issued the securities to non-U.S. person s (as that term is defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in an offshore transaction in which we relied on the registration exemption provided for in Regulation S and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
