Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the second quarter of 2013, we sold 1,643,000 shares of our common stock at a per share price of $0.50 to 3 non-affiliated private investors and 5 affiliated private investors. 1,463,000 shares were sold for cash consideration and 180,000 shares were sold for services rendered. The Company relied upon Section 4(2) of the Act, and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Act. Each prospective investor was given a private placement memorandum designed to disclose all material aspects of an investment in the Company, including the business, management, offering details, risk factors, financial statements and use of funds. The investors were business acquaintances, family members, or friends of, or personally known to, our officers and directors. It is the belief of management that each of the individuals who invested have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment and therefore did not need the protection offered by registering their shares under Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended. Each investor completed a subscription agreement whereby the investors certified that they were purchasing the shares for their own accounts, with investment intent. The Offering was not accompanied by general advertisement or general solicitation and the shares were issued with a Rule 144 restrictive legend. There were no underwriters or selling agents involved in the Offering. Proceeds were used for working capital. Approximately $130,000 of the proceeds will be used for compensation to directors and executive officers.

In addition, during the month of April two holders of our outstanding debt, our chief executive officer and a principal shareholder of the Company, converted outstanding debt of $143,500 and $142,500, respectively, into 287,000 and 285,000 shares of our common stock. The shares were issued with a Rule 144 legend.
