Section 3 – Securities and Trading Markets


Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities


Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock


On January 6, 2012, we issued an aggregate of 2,043,120 shares of our Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock to six individuals, four of which are members of our Board of Directors, namely William Schonbrun, Gordon C. McDougall (Tezi Advisory), Steven D. Moulton, and R.W. (Bob) Garnett, and one of which was our Chief Operating Officer, namely Bruce Weatherell.  Each share of Series A Preferred Stock gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, after January 1, 2013 but before January 2, 2017, to purchase two (2) shares of the Corporation’s common stock at a purchase price of Forty Cents ($0.40) per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on the last trading day prior to the transaction.  Further, the Corporation can redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at $0.0025 per share after January 2, 2017.


We granted rights to subscribe for the Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock to six individuals as a result of them waiving an aggregate of $465,000 of compensation in 2011, and agreeing to defer an aggregate of $360,000 of compensation otherwise due in 2012.  The rights enabled the six individuals to acquire the preferred shares at $0.0025 per share, as follows:
