Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On July 6, 2011, the Registrant entered into an Amendment and Exchange Agreement (each an “Exchange Agreement” and collectively, the “Exchange Agreements”) with each of W-Net Fund I, L.P., Europa International Inc. and MKM Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”). The Exchange Agreements amended the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 13, 2010 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Investors purchased from the Registrant 2.5% Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the “Notes”), which are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with the terms thereof at an exercise price of approximately $0.393 per share.
Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, each Investor agreed to extend, for a period of 12 months, the Company’s right to cause such Investor to purchase such Investor’s pro rata portion of an aggregate of $1,500,000 in additional Notes, such that the Company may cause such additional purchase if the Company meets three operating benchmarks specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Specified Benchmarks”) during the first 24 months after the closing of the first Note purchase, in consideration of the Company’s agreement to (1) extend, for a period of 12 months, the Investor’s right to cause the Company to sell to the Investor its pro rata portion of an aggregate of $1,500,000 in additional Notes, such that the Investor may cause such additional sale if the Company fails to meet the Specified Benchmarks during the first 24 months after the closing of the first Note purchase, and (2) exchange the existing Notes for new 2.5% Senior Secured Convertible Notes which are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with the terms thereof at an exercise price of $0.29 per share.
Except for the transactions under the Exchange Agreements and the Securities Purchase Agreement, and ownership of shares of the Company’s common stock, none of the Investors had any material relationship with the Company.
