Item 3.02  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
 
Closing on Third Tranche of Private Placement.  On November 29, 2007, we completed the third tranche of a private placement of up to 20 units at a price of $100,000 per unit for sale to “accredited investors,” as defined in regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  In this third tranche, we ten units for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000.  Each such unit consists of (i) a $100,000 Principal Amount 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note and (ii) a warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value, exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis for a period of four years commencing on November 29, 2008, at a price of $0.50 per share.
 
The promissory notes and accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall automatically convert on November 29, 2008 at a conversion price of $0.094431519 per share, which is equal to a 30% discount to the average volume, weighted average price of our common stock for the ten trading days prior to issuance, and are convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder at any time prior to such automatic conversion at a price equal to the greater of (i) 50% of the average price of our common stock for the ten trading days prior to the date of the notice of conversion and (ii) the automatic conversion price.  In addition, any time prior to conversion, we have the irrevocable right to repay the unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the notes on three days notice.  The promissory notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due and payable in full on November 29, 2008.
 
Until the principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the promissory notes is paid in full, or converted into our common stock, the promissory notes will be secured by a security interest in all of our assets.  This security interest will be pari passu with the security interest granted to the holders of an aggregate principal amount of $2,300,000 of secured convertible promissory notes bearing interest at 10% per annum issued between April 2007 through end of October 2007.
 
The Warrants are exercisable for a four year period commencing on November 29, 2008, and expiring on November 28, 2012, at a price of $0.50 per share.  Each warrant may be redeemed at our option at a redemption price of $0.01 upon the earlier of (i) November 29, 2010, and (ii) the date our common stock has traded on The Over the Counter Bulletin Board at or above $1.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days.
 
We claim an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the private placement of the units pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act because each of the units was made in a sale by the issuer not involving a public offering.
 
Arjent Limited, a registered broker dealer firm, (the “Placement Agent”), is our exclusive placement agent.  In connection with the sale of the sale of securities described above, we paid the Placement Agent commissions and discounts aggregating $249,810.
