Item 8.01 Other Events.

On March 21, 2012, members of our Board of Directors purchased restricted shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. We raised $240,000 in gross proceeds. The warrants will have an exercise price of $0.40 per share, will expire upon the Director’s termination from Board service, and are exercisable in whole or in part, at any time prior to expiration. Upon the Director’s termination, regardless of the reason, the Director will have 30 days to exercise the warrants, or the Director must forfeit the warrants back to us.

The transactions are as follows:

Name of Related Party
 
Position
 
Amount Invested
Leslie E. Doss
 
Director
 
$15,000
Dan Gostylo
 
Director
 
$25,000
Don L. Merrill, Jr.
 
President, CEO and Director
 
$25,000
Clifford L. Rogers
 
Director
 
$150,000
David P. Strolle, Jr.
 
Director
 
$25,000

We anticipate using the proceeds for working capital, including the expansion of our Tootie Pie Gourmet Cafés.

With respect to the sales of our common stock described above, we relied on the Section 4(2) exemption from securities registration under the federal securities laws for transactions not involving any public offering. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The securities were sold to accredited investors. The securities were offered for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or distribution, and the transfer thereof was appropriately restricted by us.

This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, and these securities cannot be sold in any state in which this offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state.

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made.  We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this report to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.
