(1) On July 2, 2013, the Company issued to Mr. Carpenter a convertible promissory note for the principal amount of $26,395 that accrues interest at 10% per annum, which beneficial ownership was initially reported on Form 3 filed on July 12, 2012. On October 18, 2012, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") to certain accredited investors in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000, including a Note to Mr. Carpenter for the principal amount of $225,000. In addition, Mr. Carpenter exchanged his previously issued July 2013 note pursuant to the terms thereof for a new Note in the principal amount of $27,176, which includes the principal of the old note and accrued interest. The maturity date of the Notes is the earlier of December 31, 2013 or the date on which the Company consummates an equity financing in which it sells shares of its capital stock with an aggregate sales price of at $5,000,000 or more (a "Qualified Equity Financing"). (Continued in Footnote 2)
(2) (Continued from Footnote 1) The Notes bear interest at a rate of 10 percent per annum payable in full on the maturity date. In the event the Company consummates a Qualified Equity Financing prior to December 31, 2013, then the holders of the Notes at their option may convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Notes into shares of the Company's capital stock issued in the Qualified Equity Financing at the same price and on the same terms as the investors in such financing. (Continued in Footnote 3)
(3) (Continued from Footnote 2) In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also issued to the investors 5-year warrants exercisable for shares of the Company's capital stock issued in the Qualified Equity Financing (the "Warrants"). The exercise price of the Warrants will be the same as the price per share of the equity securities sold to investors in the Qualified Equity Financing, and each Warrant provides for 100% warrant coverage on the principal amount of the related Note. As such, Mr. Carpenter received a Warrant for 100% coverage of his Note in the principal amount of $27,176 and a Warrant for 100% coverage of his Note in the principal amount of $225,000.
(4) On January 3, 2013, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") to certain accredited investors in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000, including a Note to Reven Capital, LLC for the principal amount of $400,000. Reven Capital, LLC is owned by Mr. Carpenter. The maturity date of the Notes is the earlier of December 31, 2013 or the date on which the Company consummates an equity financing in which it sells shares of its capital stock with an aggregate sales price of at $5,000,000 or more (a "Qualified Equity Financing"). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 10 percent per annum payable in full on the maturity date. In the event the Company consummates a Qualified Equity Financing prior to December 31, 2013, (Continued in Footnote 5)
(5) (Continued from Footnote 4) then the holders of the Notes at their option may convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Notes into shares of the Company's capital stock issued in the Qualified Equity Financing at the same price and on the same terms as the investors in such financing. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also issued to the investors 5-year warrants exercisable for shares of the Company's capital stock issued in the Qualified Equity Financing (the "Warrants"). The exercise price of the Warrants will be the same as the price per share of the equity securities sold to investors in the Qualified Equity Financing, and each Warrant provides for 100% warrant coverage on the principal amount of the related Note. As such, Reven Capital, LLC received a Warrant for 100% coverage of its Note in the principal amount of $400,000.
