Item 8.01 Other Events.


Our Newmark Loan, together with accrued interest, was due on August 31, 2014, by reason of an Extension Agreement with its current holder, Expedia Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong organized company (“Expedia”).  We had also agreed to grant a lien on all of our equipment and intellectual property to secure payment of the Newmark Loan and accrued interest at the time of the first advance under the Newmark Loan in November, 2012, which lien was approved on March 31, 2014, under an amended Loan Agreement dated February 24, 2014, reflecting the assignment and ownership of the Newmark Loan and these security interests to Expedia.  Expedia is the sole owner of Newmark. In consideration of the payment by us of the accrued interest on such loan to June 30, 2014, in the amount of $171,658, Expedia has agreed to extend the Loan Agreement due date to October 31, 2014.  No assurance can be given that we will have the funds to pay such loan. If we are unable to secure sufficient capital to pay this loan and fund our operations, we may need to change our business and development plans or curtail or cease our business operations.
