Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As of November 30, 2015, we entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Neil Rogers (the “Lender”), whereby the Lender loaned $750,000 to our company in exchange for a non-negotiable promissory note in the principal amount of $750,000 (the “Note”). The Note bears interest at the rate of 15% per annum and matures on the date that is 60 days after November 30, 2015.
The Loan Agreement provides that our obligations to the Lender will be secured by an escrow agreement, pursuant to which we will deposit into escrow a certificate representing $1.5 million worth of shares of our common stock. As of November 30, 2015, we entered into the escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with the Lender and an escrow agent.
Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, we intend to deposit a share certificate (the “Certificate”) representing 26,315,789 shares of our common stock (the “Escrowed Shares”), valued at $1.5 million, to the escrow agent. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, (i) in the event that there is any event of default that is not cured in accordance with the Loan Agreement, the escrow agent is to deliver the Certificate to the Lender and (ii) in the event that our company repays the loan pursuant to the Loan Agreement and there is no event of default that is not cured in accordance with the Loan Agreement at the time of repayment, the escrow agent is to deliver the Certificate to the transfer agent of our company and request the transfer agent to cancel the Escrowed Shares.
Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we also granted piggyback registration rights to the Lender with respect to the Escrowed Shares.
We intend to issue these securities to one non-U.S. person (as that term is defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933) in an offshore transaction relying on Regulation S and/or Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
