Item 1.01Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Extension of Maturity Date of Convertible Promissory Note Dated September 25, 2012

 

On September 25, 2012 (the "Issue Date"), the Company issued a convertible promissory note (the "Note") to Steven Turner, the Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company and Nancy Turner, wife of Mr. Turner (the "Noteholders") in an aggregate principal amount equal to $20,000 (the "Principal Amount"). The Note accrues simple interest at a rate of 10% per annum and is due and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is 60 days from the Issue Date, or (ii) when declared due and payable by the Noteholders upon the occurrence of an event of default (the “Maturity Date”). At the option of the Noteholders, each $2.00 of outstanding Principal Amount and accrued unpaid interest is convertible into one share of common stock of the Company. On March 22, 2013, in exchange for the agreement by the Noteholders to extend the maturity date of the Note, the Company agreed to reduce the conversion price set forth in the Note from $2.00 to $0.50 per share. On August 6, 2013, pursuant to an addendum to the Note (the "Note Addendum No. 3"), the Noteholders agreed to further extend the Maturity Date of the Note from May 31, 2013 to December 31, 2013.

 

The above descriptions of the Note and the Note Addendum No. 3 are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the form of Note filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Form 8-K filed on October 4, 2012. The description above of the Note Addendum No. 3 is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Note Addendum No. 3 for the Noteholder filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
