ITEM 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 29, 2016, QuantumSphere, Inc. (the “Registrant”), entered into a bridge loan with Stephen Hall (“Lender”). The bridge loan is in the original principal amount of $100,000 and is evidenced by a promissory note and security agreement. The bridge loan matures in 30 days, i.e., May 29, 2016, and requires the payment of interest in the amount of $25,000. The bridge loan is non-convertible and will be secured through a junior interest in the Registrant’s assets. The bridge loan will be used for the purpose of funding working capital and other operating expenses of the Registrant.

 

The Registrant anticipates the need to raise additional funds during the Registrant’s current fiscal year fourth quarter ending June 30, 2016, and is in active discussions with several parties in connection therewith.
