Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On December 11, 2014, the Company entered into a Debt Repayment Agreement (the “Debt Repayment Agreement”), effective as of December 10, 2014, with Advanced Green Innovations, LLC (“AGI”), ZHRO Solutions, LLC (“ZHRO”) and Advanced Green Technologies, LLC (“AGT”). AGI and ZHRO are customers of the Company and owe the Company approximately $2.2 million (the “Outstanding Balance”) for engineering, design and development services invoiced by the Company through October 3, 2014.
    
Under the terms of the Debt Repayment Agreement, AGI and ZHRO jointly and severally agreed to pay the Outstanding Balance, plus interest at 5% per annum, over a ten month period with the first payment in the amount of $300,000 due on or before December 25, 2014. In the event that AGI and ZHRO fail to make any payment prior to the expiration of any applicable cure period, then the remaining Outstanding Balance is immediately due and payable and the interest rate is increased to 18% per annum. AGT, an affiliate of AGI and ZHRO, provided the Company with a limited non-recourse guaranty of AGI’s and ZHRO’s payment of the Outstanding Balance and interest. A copy of the Debt Repayment Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference, and the description of the terms of the Debt Repayment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

To secure AGI’s and ZHRO’s performance of its obligations under the Debt Repayment Agreement and AGT's performance under its limited non-recourse guaranty, AGI and AGT pledged all of their ownership interests in East Camelback, LLC (“East Camelback”), consisting in the aggregate of 510 voting units (51.0%), 474 non-voting units and 47.5% of the participation rights in East Camelback, pursuant to the terms of a Pledge Agreement between the Company, AGI and AGT. East Camelback indirectly owns 100% of a commercial building, consisting of approximately 23,700 square feet of office space, located in Phoenix, Arizona. A copy of the Pledge Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference, and the description of the terms of the Pledge Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
