Item 2.03   Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant


On January 13, 2017, Aspen Group, Inc. (the “Company”) elected to draw $500,000 in funds under its previously disclosed $3,000,000, three-year revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) entered into on August 31, 2016. As previously disclosed, amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest, payable monthly, at a rate of 12% per annum, and a commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the Credit Facility is payable monthly at a rate of 2% per annum. Following the additional drawdown, borrowings under the Credit Facility total $1,250,000.


Item 8.01   Other Events


On January 9, 2017, the Company received notice from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) that FINRA had processed the Company’s one-for-12 reverse split of its common stock previously approved by the Company’s shareholders. The reverse split was effective on the opening of trading on January 10, 2017. The Company’s common stock will trade on the OTCQB on a post-split basis under the ticker symbol “ASPUD” for 20 business days, then revert back to “ASPU” thereafter.
