Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. On October 17 , 2017, the Company sold additional Series B Unsecured Convertible Promissory Notes (the "Series B Notes") in the principal amount of $2,624,900 to 53 accredited investors, which includes 4 of the Company's officers and directors who collectively purchased Series B Notes in the principal amount of $140,000. The Series B Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 15% per year and are due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders of the Series B Notes, the principal amount of the Notes, and any accrued but unpaid interest, are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share. The Company paid sales commissions of $94,145 in connection with the sale of these Series B Notes. During December, 2016 and January, 2017 the Company sold promissory notes (the "Original Notes") in the principal amount of $10,000,000 to a number of accredited investors. The Original Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per year and are due and payable on December 31, 2018. At the option of the holders of the Original Notes, the principal amount of the Original Notes, and any accrued but unpaid interest, are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share. For every Series B Note purchased, the holder of an Original Note was given the right, but not the obligation, on or prior to October 15, 2017, to convert twice the corresponding amount of their Original Note into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1.10 per share. As of October 15, 2017 Original Notes in principal amount of $4,936,799 were converted into 4,488,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In connection with the conversion of the notes, the Company paid $31,783 to a placement agent. The Company anticipates that a final closing of the sale of the Series B Notes will take place on October 23, 2017. Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
