Note 5. Convertible Notes and Line of Credit

Line of Credit

In 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for an unsecured Line of Credit up to a maximum of $1,000,000. The Line of Credit carries an interest rate on amounts borrowed of 9% per annum. All funds originally advanced under the facility were due and payable by November 1, 2012. As an inducement to provide the facility, the lender was awarded an immediate option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. In addition, the lender received an option to purchase a maximum of 250,000 additional shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. The options expire following repayment in full by the Company of the amount borrowed. The Company is in default under the repayment terms of the agreement. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the unpaid principal and accrued interest due on the obligation totaled $2,302,929 and $2,213,422, respectively.

Convertible Notes

Pursuant to a Private Placement Memorandum dated March 1, 2010, the Company offered Units consisting of a two year unsecured, convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $25,000 with interest at 12% per annum. The Promissory Notes were convertible into 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company upon issuance and for a period of five years at the option of the investor. The conversion rights have expired.

Pursuant to an additional Private Placement Memorandum dated October 25, 2010, the Company offered Units consisting of a two year unsecured, convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $25,000. The Promissory Notes bear interest at 9% per annum and were convertible into 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company upon issuance and for a period of five years at the option of the investor. The conversion rights have expired.

The Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the two Private Placements discussed above total $962,500 in principal and became due and payable beginning in March 2012 and extending to various dates through June 2013. As of the date of the filing of this report, all of the aforementioned debt obligations remain unpaid and in default under the repayment terms of the notes. In November 2020, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware awarded Judgments in favor of certain holders of these Promissory Notes who filed suit against the Company. As a result, the Company must carry an aggregate of $486,796 (total principal and interest) as debt owed to these noteholders. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, all Notes issued had a total outstanding principal of $962,500 and accrued interest, including the additional interest awarded pursuant to the Court Judgments of $1,145,957 and $1,043,547, respectively.
