Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On November 08, 2011, Nugen Holdings, Inc. through its subsidiary Nugen Mobility, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-exclusive Investment Banking Agreement (the “Agreement”) with John Carris Investments, LLC. (“JCI”).  This agreement was fully executed on November 14, 2011.  Under this Agreement, the Company engaged JCI to provide general business advice and assistance and to use its best efforts with respect to raising capital by equity or debt raise, including any offer or private sale of the Company's capital stock (whether outstanding or newly issued shares), convertible securities, options, warrants, or other rights to acquire the Company's capital stock, or assets.  

As compensation, the Company agrees to pay a fee of 10.0% of total consideration received by the Company’s debt or equity raise.  All amounts are due at transaction closing.   The Company shall also pay to the Agent a fee of 5% of the cash proceeds received (directly or indirectly) from the exercise of any Investor warrants issued in the Transaction by the holders of those Warrants.

In addition to the cash fee specified above, JCI, within thirty (30) days after the closing of the Equity Raise or Debt Raise, shall also be entitled to receive from the Company, two-year warrants (the "Placement Agent Warrants") to purchase the number of shares of the Company's common stock that is equivalent to 10.0% of the number of shares of the Company's (or such relevant entity) common stock (or its equivalents) issued by the Company in the Transaction. The Placement Agent Warrants shall have an exercise price equal to the per share equivalent paid by the investors in the Transaction and under the same terms and conditions as the Transaction.  The Placement Agent Warrants shall contain a cashless exercise provision, ratcheting provisions with respect to price per share during the warrant term and a piggyback registration rights provision for the life of such securities.

In addition to the fees described above,  the Company agrees to reimburse JCI for all reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by JCI provided that all out-of pocket expenses in excess of $10,000 in the aggregate must be pre-approved by the Company.

The term of this engagement commences on November 8, 2011 and terminates the earlier of 6 months from the date hereof or the final closing of a Transaction, unless sooner terminated or extended.

The discussion in this Current Report is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 1.1, and is incorporated, by reference in this Item.
