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

 
On April 5, 2011, NewCardio, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a draw down notice to borrow $300,000 under its $1.5 million credit facility to be funded on April 13, 2011.  On April 14, 2011, the Company advised the lenders that the funding had not been received and provided the required notice that failure to cure such default on or prior to April 21, 2011 would result in the warrants originally issued in connection with the entry into the credit facility to any defaulting lender becoming void.  As of April 19, 2011, the Company has received $100,000 of the requested advance from one of the lenders.
 
Advances under the credit facility bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and are due and payable, together with (i) any additional draw downs that the Company accesses through the expiration of the line in July 31, 2011, (ii) the Company’s outstanding indebtedness under its former $3 million credit facility, and (iii) all accrued interest on the outstanding indebtedness under both credit line arrangements, on September 30, 2011.
 
Under the terms of the $1.5 million credit facility, as amended, the lenders have the right, exercisable through May 17, 2011, to appoint a majority of the Company’s board of directors.  This right is subject to extension in the event of further draw downs for a period of 20 business days following each draw down. As of the date hereof, the lenders have not exercised this right.
