Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 8, 2013, Naturewell, Incorporated (the "Company") entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the "Agreement") with its largest senior secured creditor, Dutchess Advisors LLC ("Dutchess"). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Dutchess agreed to exchange four (4) senior secured notes issued to it by the Company, for which there was an aggregate remaining balance due, including all accrued and unpaid interest and/or penalties, if any, in the amount of approximately $3,076,821 as of February 20, 2013 (the "Effective Date"), into 195,026 shares of the Company's Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (see also Items 3.03 and 5.03). The four Dutchess notes were as follows: (i) one senior secured note with an original face value of $300,000, which had accrued interest in the amount of $107,872 as of the Effective Date, thus having a total amount due of $407,872 as of the Effective Date; (ii) one senior secured note with an original face value of $1,883,000, which had accrued interest in the amount of $731,252 as of the Effective Date, thus having a total amount due of $2,614,252 as of the Effective Date; (iii) one senior secured note with an original face value of $25,000, which had accrued interest in the amount of $9,436 as of the Effective Date, thus having a total amount due of $34,436 as of the Effective Date; and (iv) one senior secured note with an original face value of $15,000, which had accrued interest in the amount of $5,261 as of the Effective Date, thus having a total amount due of $20,261 as of the Effective Date. The foregoing four (4) senior notes have a combined total amount due as of the Effective Date of $3,076,821.

On March 8, 2013, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release with Naturewell, Incorporated, a Nevada corporation ("NWNV"), to settle an outstanding payable owed by the Company to NWNV in the amount of $7,859 (the "Amount Due"). The Amount Due was comprised primarily of unreimbursed costs and expenses that NWNV had incurred on behalf of the Company. The Company's Chief Executive Officer, James R. Arabia, is also the CEO of NWNV. In exchange for the extinguishment of the Amount Due the Company issued to NWNV 15,720 shares of its Series G Convertible Preferred Stock.

The foregoing Agreements also contain a full mutual general release between the parties and each of their respective affiliated parties. The Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1.

 

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

As described in Item 1.01 above, in connection with the Agreement, the Company and Dutchess terminated four (4) senior secured notes previously issued to Dutchess by the Company.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements described in Item 1.01 above, the Company issued a total of 210,746 shares of its Series G Convertible Preferred Stock to Dutchess and NWNV. Based on Dutchess' and NWNV's sophistication and pre-existing involvement with the Company, as well as the nature of the transaction, the issuances are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) thereunder.

 

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders

Effective March 8, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the creation of a new Series G Convertible Preferred stock (the "Series G Preferred Stock"). The Series G Preferred Stock is more fully described in Item 5.03 below. A copy of the certificate of designation, describing the rights, privileges and preferences for the Series G Preferred Stock is attached as Exhibit 10.3.

 

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

As described in Item 3.03 above, pursuant to Article Fourth of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, the Company's Board of Directors has authorized the creation of up to 4,000,000 shares of Series G Preferred Stock, each share having the rights, privileges and preferences outlined below:

Par value $.01 per share.

No liquidation preference.

Senior to the common stock.

Voting rights equal to 1 vote for each share of Common Stock that the Series G Preferred Stock is entitled to convert into at the time of such vote.

Each share is convertible into 84,840 shares of common stock, subject to a proportionate adjustment (either up or down) upon the common stock undergoing a reverse split, stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, reduction of capital stock, subdivision or otherwise.

The Company has the right to require the conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock into common stock at any time following such time that the Company has adequate number of authorized and unissued common shares available to facilitate the conversion of all Series G Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of such forced conversion.

No annual dividend is required to be paid on the Series G Preferred Stock.
