Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 9, 2008, we entered into an Agreement dated as of July 8, 2008 with CPI Investments, Inc. ("CPI") whereby CPI agreed to loan us the aggregate amount of $2.0 million (the "Agreement"). The Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The loan is payable, net of fees, in tranches of: $0.4 million which was funded immediately; $0.4 million on August 22, 2008; $0.6 million on October 6, 2008; and $0.6 million on February 16, 2009. The principal amounts loaned will bear interest at 12% per year payable monthly with no prepayment option. The loan is convertible into 18,181,818 shares of our restricted common stock.

Pursuant to the Agreement, we granted CPI 2-year warrants to purchase (a) 4,500,000 shares of common stock at a $0.30 exercise price, and (b) 200,000 shares of common stock at $0.15 exercise price, both vesting pro-rata upon funding of each tranche.

In addition, we also granted CPI one share of our Series A Preferred Stock, which votes together with our common stock and has votes equal to 45,454,545 shares of common stock. Those votes will be reduced by 2.5 votes for every 1 share of common stock into which the loan is converted. Provided that CPI meets its funding obligations under the Agreement, CPI will maintain its voting rights throughout the term of the loan.

Under the terms of the Agreement, CPI appointed a board member to our board of directors and has the right to appoint two additional board members.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

Pursuant to the Agreement described in Item 1.01 above, on July 8, 2008, we granted CPI one share of our Series A Preferred Stock, which votes together with our common stock and has votes equal to 45,454,545 shares of common stock.





Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Under the terms of the Agreement described in Item 1.01 above, CPI appointed Michael Bartlett as a board member of our Company's board of directors and has the right to appoint two additional board members.
