Item 2.03.     Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

On November 23, 2012, the Company issued a $1.8 million Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) to a lender controlled by and in part owned by Mr. Kai-Shing Tao, the Company’s Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Tao has been a director of the Company since 2007. The Note was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board, which believes the related party transaction was negotiated as an arms-length transaction.. The terms of the Note include: 

          Interest accrues at 6.67% on an annual basis, payable quarterly. 

          All principal and any accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable in full on the second anniversary of the Note. 

          The repayment of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest is secured by all assets of the Company other than the common shares of Sharecare, Inc. owned by the Company. 

          All principal and accrued interest is convertible at any time at the election of the Lender at the rate of $1.30 of principal and interest for each share of Company common stock. 

   

The Note was funded on November 27, 2012.
