Note 11. Subsequent Events


In September 2013, the Company and an institutional investor (the "Institutional Investor") signed a Term Sheet with respect to a loan of up to $2,240,000 to be evidenced by 18 month original issue discount convertible debentures (the "Debentures") with gross proceeds of $2,000,000. The investor has agreed, subject to completion of due diligence, execution of a definitive Securities Purchase Agreement and customary closing conditions to lend the Company $1,500,000.  Payments on the Debentures are due 25% on November 1, 2014, 25% on January 1, 2015 and the remaining 50% on April 1, 2015 as a final payment. The Company has the option to pay the interest or principal in stock subject to certain "Equity Conditions" such as giving notice of its intent 20 trading days beforehand. The Company expects to receive the remaining $500,000 from other investors. To this end, in September 2013 Company entered into an engagement agreement with Laidlaw & Co. ("Laidlaw") to act as placement agent for the offering and receive customary compensation. Laidlaw has introduced the Institutional Investor. In addition, in September 2013 the Company entered into a letter of intent with Olympus Securities, LLC to raise the remaining $500,000 in exchange for customary compensation.


The Term Sheet provides that the Debentures may be converted at the holder's option at $0.3325 per share at any time after the closing. Warrants for 100% of the number of shares of common stock that could be bought at the conversion price will be issued at closing.  The warrants will have a five-year term and be exercisable for cash if an outstanding registration statement is in effect within 90 days of closing. The Debentures will bear 8% per annum interest and be amortizable in installments over their term. There can be no assurances that the offering will close and that the Company will receive any net proceeds.
