Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 1, 2016, DirectView Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) to issue and sell a 5% Original Issue Discount Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note” and together with the SPA, the “Transaction Documents”) to an institutional investor (the “Investor”), in the principal amount of $105,263.16 (the “Principal Amount”). Pursuant to the Transaction Documents, on or about April 1, 2016, the Company received $100,000.00 (before expenses and fees) in funding from the Investor. The Company’s issuance of the securities to the Investor pursuant to the SPA are exempt from registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

The Note shall mature on March 31, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) and shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to 10%. The Principal Amount shall be paid on the Maturity Date (or sooner as provided in the Note) in cash. The interest shall be paid on the Maturity Date (or sooner as provided in the Note) in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). In accordance with the terms of the Note, the Investor shall be entitled to convert a portion or all of the Principal Amount and interest due and outstanding under the Note into shares of Common Stock equal to 70% of the lowest traded price in the prior thirty (30) trading days.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference.

The securities issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents were not registered under the Securities Act, but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, the Investor had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and received, the securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
