The notes to be surrendered bear interest at the annual rate of 2%, payable semi-annually, and are convertible at the election of the holder into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate of $0.13 per share. The Exchange Notes will bear interest at the annual rate of 10% and will be convertible into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of $0.13 per share, subject to decrease, but not increase, at the end of each three-month period from issuance to equal the VWAP (as defined) of our common stock and to adjustment in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split and similar events. The principal amount of and accrued interest on the Exchange Notes will be payable in two equal semi-annual installments. No additional consideration was paid in connection with the exchange.
