ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
On July 25, 2006, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Securities Purchase Agreement") with New Millennium Capital Partners II, LLC,
AJW Qualified Partners, LLC, AJW Offshore, Ltd. and AJW Partners, LLC
(collectively, the "Investors"). Under the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, the Investors purchased an aggregate of (i) $2,000,000 in callable
convertible secured notes (the "Notes") and (ii) warrants to purchase
10,000,0000 shares of our common stock (the "Warrants").
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Investors will purchase the
Notes and Warrants in three tranches as set forth below:
1. At closing on July 26, 2006 ("Closing"), the Investors
purchased Notes aggregating $700,000 and warrants to
purchase 10,000,0000 shares of our common stock;
2. Upon the filing of a registration statement registering the
shares of common stock underlying the Notes ("Registration
Statement"), the Investors will purchase Notes aggregating
$600,000; and,
3. Upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the
Investors will purchase Notes aggregating $700,000.
The Notes carry an interest rate of 6% and a maturity date of July 25, 2009. The
notes are convertible into our common shares at the Applicable Percentage of the
average of the lowest three (3) trading prices for our shares of common stock
during the twenty (20) trading day period prior to conversion. The "Applicable
Percentage" means 50%; provided, however, that the Applicable Percentage shall
be increased to (i) 55% in the event that a Registration Statement is filed
within thirty days of the closing and (ii) 60% in the event that the
Registration Statement becomes effective within one hundred and twenty days from
the Closing.
At our option, we may prepay the Notes in the event that no event of default
exists, there are a sufficient number of shares available for conversion of the
Notes and the market price is at or below $.25 per share. In addition, in the
event that the average daily price of the common stock, as reported by the
reporting service, for each day of the month ending on any determination date is
below $.25, we may prepay a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the
Notes equal to 101% of the principal amount hereof divided by thirty-six (36)
plus one month's interest. Exercise of this option will stay all conversions for
the following month. The full principal amount of the Notes is due upon default
under the terms of Notes. In addition, the Company has granted the investors a
security interest in substantially all of its assets and intellectual property
as well as registration rights.
We simultaneously issued to the Investors seven year warrants to purchase
10,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $.30.
The Investors have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert the
Notes and exercise the Warrants and receive shares of the Company's common stock
such that the number of shares of the Company's common stock held by them and
their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the
then issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock.
We are committed to filing an SB-2 Registration Statement with the SEC within 45
days from the Closing Date. We will receive the second tranche of the funding
when the SB-2 is filed with the SEC and the third and final tranche of the
funding when the SB-2 is declared effective by the SEC. There are penalty
provisions for us should the filing not become effective within 135 days of the
Closing Date. The notes are secured by all of our assets to the extent of the
outstanding note.
ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION
UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT
The sale of the first tranche of Notes described in Item 1.01 was completed on
July 26, 2006. At the closing, we became obligated to the Investors for $700,000
in face amount of the Notes. The Notes are a debt obligation arising other than
in the ordinary course of business which constitutes a direct financial
obligation of us.
ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
The Notes and Warrants referenced in Item 1.01 were offered and sold to the
Investors in a private placement transaction in reliance upon exemptions from
registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506
of Regulation D promulgated thereto. Each of the Investors is an accredited
investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of
1933.
