Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant From October 11, 2005 through October 14, 2005, the Registrant issued two promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $50,000 to two individuals in exchange for loans in the same amount. These notes bear interest at 10% per annum, payable monthly, and all principal and interest is due at maturity after nine months or earlier at the option of each holder upon a Change in Control. "Change in Control" is defined as (i) a consolidation or merger of the Registrant with or into any other corporation or corporations or any other transaction in which the holders of the Registrant's outstanding shares of capital stock immediately before such consolidation or merger do not, immediately after such consolidation or merger, retain stock representing a majority of the voting power of the surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Registrant or (iii) any occurrence as a result of which more than 50% of the voting capital stock of the Registrant is held by a person or persons other than a current holder or current holders of more than 50% of the voting capital stock of the Registrant. In the event that a Note is not repaid in full within ninety (90) days following the maturity date, additional interest is due and payable in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the unpaid amount. Thereafter, additional interest accrues each sixty (60) days in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the unpaid amount. Each Note is convertible into shares of the Registrant's common stock at an exercise price equal to 85% of the average of the mean of the closing "bid" and "ask" prices of the Registrant's common stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the date of exercise. Each Note is subject to earlier repayment at the option of the holder upon an event of default, which includes: o The Registrant's failure to pay the principal of or accrued interest on or late charges due under the Note within five (5) business days following the date when due. o The Registrant's default in any payment of principal of or interest on any obligations for borrowed money (other than under the Note, or any such obligation payable to the holder) or for the deferred purchase price of property, if the effect is to cause, or to permit the holder of such obligation to cause, such obligation to become due prior to its stated maturity. o The Registrant's voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy. o Entry of one or more judgments against the Registrant in the aggregate amount of Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000) or more, if the Registrant does not obtain satisfaction, release, stay or dismissal within thirty (30) days thereof. In addition, the holders of the Notes were issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 25,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.
