Since October 11, 2012, CytoDyn Inc. (the “Company”) has issued $3,728,750 in unsecured convertible notes to investors. The notes are convertible at the election of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $.75 per share. The principal is due in full three years following issuance. The notes bear interest at rates that range from 5% to 10% per year, payable in cash semiannually in arrears. In connection with the sale of the notes, warrants to purchase a total of 4,771,665 shares of the Company’s common stock with exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $2.00 per share were issued. The warrants are currently exercisable in full and will expire in October 2014.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On October 10, 2012, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company granted nonqualified stock options to purchase a total of 140,000 shares of common stock to four individuals as consideration for consulting services and nonqualified stock options to purchase a total of 225,000 shares of common stock to two executive officers. All of the options have a three-year term and an exercise price of $1.80 per share. One-half of the options granted to the consultants vested on October 10, 2012, and the other half will vest on April 10, 2013. One-half of the options granted to the executive officers vested on October 10, 2012, and the other half will vest on October 10, 2013.

The Company relied on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with the issuance of the options to the consultants and executive officers.

Since October 11, 2012, the Company has sold a total of $3,728,750 in unsecured convertible notes in a private placement to 11 individuals, two entities and one trust in exchange for cash in an equal amount. Each purchaser of notes is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The notes are convertible at the election of the holder into shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $.75 per share. In connection with the sale of the notes, warrants for a total of 4,771,665 shares of common stock were issued which are currently exercisable in full and will expire in October 2014. Of the warrants, 916,667 shares have an exercise price of $1.50 per share and 3,854,998 shares have an exercise price of $2.00 per share.

The Company relied on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder in connection with the issuance of the notes and warrants.
