Item 3.02    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
In January 2014, AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) issued to holders of the Company’s subordinated convertible promissory notes dated October 26, 2010 (the “2010 Notes”), an aggregate of 788,828 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”) upon conversion of $2,930,000 of the aggregate principal amount and $12,323 in interest amount thereof. Specifically, the Company issued the following amounts of shares of Common Stock to holders of the 2010 Notes on the following dates: (i) January 2, 2014, an aggregate amount of 67,025 shares; (ii) January 10, 2014, an aggregate amount of 8,067 shares; (iii) January 13, 2014, an aggregate amount of 53,834 shares; and (iv) January 15, 2014, an aggregate amount of 659,902 shares. The conversion price was $3.73 per share of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the 2010 Notes were issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The Company relied upon such exemption based upon the private nature of the transaction, the lack of general solicitation and representations made by each such holder regarding, among other things, the holder’s sophistication and access to information about the Company.
