The terms of the Note Agreement are summarized below. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto to this Report.

Advances. The Registrant may request advances up to an aggregate of $400,000 under the Note Agreement at any time prior to December 31, 2014, which the Noteholder is obligated to fund within three (3) Business Days (as defined in the Note Agreement) of each such request provided that an Event of Default has not occurred and is then continuing.

Prepayment. The Registrant may prepay the loan in whole or in part at any time without penalty.

Maturity Date. The aggregate unpaid principal and all interest and other amount payable under the Note Agreement shall be due on March 31, 2014, subject to acceleration upon an Event of Default.

Interest. The outstanding and unpaid principal amount due under the Note Agreement shall bear interest at the rate of five (5%) percent per annum and shall be payable quarterly in arrears. If any amount is not paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest at the rate of fifteen (15%) percent per annum.

Event of Default. An Event of Default means, (i) any default in the payment of (A) the principal, or (B) interest under the Note Agreement as and when the same shall become due and payable (whether on the Maturity Date or by acceleration or otherwise) which default is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after written notice from the Noteholder to the Registrant, or (ii) there is commenced against the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries a case under any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws as now or hereafter in effect or any successor thereto, or any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency or liquidation or similar law of any jurisdiction whether now or hereafter in effect relating to the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries that remains undismissed for a period of sixty (60) days; or (iii) the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries is adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction insolvent or bankrupt; or any order of relief or other order approving any such case or proceeding is entered; or (iv) the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries suffers any appointment of any custodian or the like for it or any substantial part of its property that continues undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days.

Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs, the full principal amount outstanding under the Note Agreement, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof to the date of acceleration, shall become at the Noteholder’s election immediately due and payable.
