Item 2.03
Creation of Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
 
On April 29, 2011, the Company executed and delivered to CMA Investments, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“CMA”), a Promissory Grid Note with a principal amount of up to $800,000 (“the “Note”).  Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Company may draw up to a maximum principal amount of $800,000.  Interest on amounts drawn and fees will be paid by an affiliate of Joseph C. Allegra, M.D., a director of the Company, to CMA.  Pursuant to an agreement between the Company and such affiliate, the Company will issue common stock to such affiliate with a value equal to such interest and fees paid based on the closing price of the common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on the date of such payments.
 
Other terms of the Note include:
 
 
· 
The Note is unsecured;
 
· 
No payments of principal are due until the second anniversary of the Note, at which time all outstanding principal is due and payable; and
 
· 
The Note is subordinated to the Company’s outstanding $3,000,000 Loan and Security Agreement with Topping Lift Capital LLC.
 
CMA is a limited liability company of which Joseph C. Allegra, M.D., J. Douglas Craft and Michelle Y. Mangum, each a director of the Company, are the members.
 
In connection with the loan transaction, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 2.6 million shares of common stock at $.45 per share, the closing price of the common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on April 29, 2011, to the participating directors. Such warrants vest based on the amount advanced to the Company pursuant to the Note.
