ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

On December 16, 2008, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) of that date, we sold, an aggregate of $5,075,000 principal amount 12% Convertible Debentures (“Debentures”) and common stock purchase warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 10,150,000 shares of our common stock to eleven accredited investors in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D of that act. As part of the offering, an aggregate of $525,000 principal amount of previously issued debentures converted into the Debentures. We used or expect to use $800,000 of the gross proceeds to satisfy the outstanding obligations under debentures previously issued on February 29, 2008 and extended on August 29, 2008. We intend to use the balance of the proceeds for general working capital.

The Debentures, which bear interest at 12% per annum, are due December 16, 2010. The Debentures are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock based upon a conversion rate of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the transaction documents. Interest is convertible as provided in the Debentures. We are not permitted to prepay the Debentures without the prior written consent of the holders. The Warrants, which have a cashless exercise provision, are exercisable until approximately four years after the closing at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The number of shares covered by the Warrants and the Warrant exercise price are subject to adjustment as provided in the transaction documents.
