Item 2.03  Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation.
Item 3.02  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
On June 30, 2009, we issued and sold a $150,000 principal amount secured promissory note bearing interest at a rate of 10% per annum to James A. Hayward, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
 
The promissory note and accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall automatically convert into shares of our common stock on June 30, 2010 at a conversion price of $0.103059299 per share, which is equal to a 20% discount to the average volume, weighted average price of our common stock for the ten trading days prior to issuance, and is convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the noteholder 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 written notice (during which period the holder can elect to convert the note).  The promissory note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum and is due and payable in full on June 30, 2010.  Until the principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the promissory note are paid in full, or converted into shares of our common stock, the promissory note will be secured by a security interest in all of our assets.
 
We issued the securities to James A. Hayward in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
