Item 1.01  Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 15, 2013 (the “Effective Date”) Yappn Corp. (the "Company") executed and issued a Convertible Promissory Note to JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) in the principal amount of $500,000, with a $50,000 original issue discount that shall be ratably applied towards payments made by JMJ (the “JMJ Note”).  On the Effective Date, JMJ provided an initial payment on the JMJ Note of $65,000 to the Company.  The JMJ Note is due two years from the effective date (the “Maturity Date”) of each payment by JMJ to the Company. The JMJ Note is interest free if repaid within 90 days and if not paid within 90 days, it bears a one-time interest charge of 12%, which is in addition to the original issue discount.  The Company agreed to pay a closing and due diligence fee of 8% of each payment made by JMJ toward the JMJ Note, which fee shall be applied to the principal amount of the JMJ Note.  After 90 days from the Effective Date and until the Maturity Date, the Company may not make further payments on the JMJ Note without written approval from JMJ.  The principal and any accrued interest are convertible into the Company’s common stock at the lower of $0.075 per share or 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 days prior to conversion.  JMJ has piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares into which the JMJ Note is convertible.

The JMJ Note was offered and sold to JMJ in a private placement transaction made in reliance upon the exemptions from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Rule 506 under the Securities Act of 1933.

In addition, on November 15, 2013, the Company and JMJ entered into an amendment agreement to the JMJ Note, which exempts the application of the JMJ Note’s “most favored nations” clause from issuances related to: i) shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to an employee stock or option plan, ii) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, and iii) securities issued or issuable pursuant to certain service agreements that the Company entered into prior to issuing the JMJ Note.

The foregoing information is a summary of each of the agreements involved in the transactions described above, is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements, each of which is attached as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  Readers should review those agreements for a complete understanding of the terms and conditions associated with this transaction.
