ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENTS.

(a) Loans.

As previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 6, 2012, on June 29, 2012, Sillerman Investment Company LLC (the “Lender”), an affiliate of Robert F.X. Sillerman, the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, agreed to advance up to $10,000,000 to the Company, as evidenced by a line of credit grid promissory note, dated as of June 29, 2012, that was executed and delivered by the Company in favor of the Lender (the “Grid Note”) on July 6, 2012.  As of October 4, 2012, the entire $10,000,000 was advanced.

On October 31, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the line of credit from $10,000,000 to $12,000,000 and entered into an Amended and Restated Line of Credit Promissory Note for $12,000,000 but otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Grid Note.  A further advance of $2,000,000 was made on October 31, 2012.

The foregoing description of the line of credit is not complete and it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company is using the proceeds to fund working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes.  Because Mr. Sillerman is a director, executive officer and greater than 10% stockholder of the Company, the Company’s independent directors approved the transaction.

ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.

The information required by this item is incorporated by reference from Item 1.01 above.

On October 31, 2012, the Board of Directors appointed Gregory Consiglio to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, effective immediately.  Mr. Consiglio, 46 years old, has served as the Company’s Head of Business Development since 2011.  He came to the Company after serving as Executive Vice President of Business Development at Ticketmaster Entertainment, where he oversaw teams responsible for online affiliate sales, online sponsorship, advertising sales, and third party alliances with leading brands. Previously, he oversaw corporate and business development for GoFish, the online video network.

Before joining GoFish, Consiglio spent seven years at America Online serving in a variety of business development and operating roles including Managing Director, AOL Asia (based in Hong Kong), and later served as AOL’s head of international business development.
