ITEM 3.02
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

During the period from July 10, 2012 through August 7, 2012, we sold 1,275,001 shares of our common stock to nine (9) accredited investors at a price of $1.20 per share. Gross proceeds from these private placements totaled $1,530,000. We paid $53,550 in finder’s fees in connection with the sale of these shares. 
 
We relied upon the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to these sales. The purchasers were sophisticated investors who were provided full information regarding our business and operations. There was no general solicitation in connection with the offer or sale of these shares. The certificates representing the shares will bear a restricted legend providing that they cannot be sold unless pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration.
