As of April 30, 2015 the Company had $1,703,000 of short-term promissory notes that was originally due to be paid on September 30, 2015. However, on June 30, 2015, the Company entered into Amendment, Waiver and Exchange Agreements with certain of its promissory note holders, who held $1,299,000 in principal amount of unsecured promissory notes of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the Holders agreed to exchange all of the existing indebtedness for, and the Company agreed to issue to the Holders, an aggregate of 8,435 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series H Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, one note holder was paid $4,000 for full and complete settlement of his note balance.
 
In addition, on June 30, 2015, the Company and the shareholder plaintiff entered into a settlement (the “Settlement”) with the two remaining defendants (the “Defendants”) in a case pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve claims under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the terms of the Settlement, the Defendants agreed to the following: (i) payment of $315,0000 for the plaintiff’s attorney’s fees; (ii) forgiveness of $400,000 of principal amount of debt owed by the Company to the Defendants; (iii) an exchange of the remaining $405,000 of debt owed by the Company to the Defendants into shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company; (iv) waiver of certain conditions preventing the Company from paying accrued dividends on its Series F-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series G-1 Convertible Preferred Stock in shares of the Company’s common stock; and (v) relinquishment of all voting rights the Defendants have in all shares of the Company’s preferred stock now held or hereinafter acquired.
