Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 29, 2013, MPM Technologies, Inc., a Washington corporation (the “Company”), entered into a purchase agreement with certain accredited investors to issue and sell convertible promissory notes to such accredited investors (the “Holders”), representing an aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000 (the “Notes”). As of May 2, 2013, $100,000 in Notes have been purchased by investors (the “Initial Investors”). The closing of the initial $100,000 in Notes occurred on May 1, 2013.

The principal balance of each Note is convertible into common stock of the Company, at the election of the Holder, beginning 24 months after the issuance of the Note.  The conversion price under each note is equal to the market price (as determined in accordance with the Note) multiplied by 75%.  Each Note has a term of up to two years.  The Company has the right to prepay the principal and interest, if any, under the Note without penalty.  Interest on each Note accrues at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum.  Each Note contains customary default provisions, including provisions for potential acceleration of the Note and automatic conversion of the principal amount and accrued interest, if any, of the Note into common stock of the Company at a Default Conversion Price (as determined in accordance with the Note).  The foregoing description of the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of convertible note filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto.

Item 2.03                      Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information required to be disclosed in this Item 2.03 is incorporated herein by reference from Item 1.01.

Item 3.02                      Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The Notes described under Item 1.01 above were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  The offering was made to certain “accredited investors” (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act). The Company made no solicitation in connection with the sale other than communications with the investors. The Company obtained representations from the investors regarding their investment intent, experience and sophistication.  The investors received or had access to adequate information about the Company in order to make an informed investment decision.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall be up to $500,000. Based upon the May 1, 2013 market price of $0.245 per share and the 25% discount, the maximum number of shares convertible under the Notes is approximately 2,721,089 shares, and the number of shares convertible under the $100,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by the Initial Investors is approximately 544,218 shares.

- 3 -

 

 
material facts relating to such Event of Default and shall specify the date on which such Event of Default occurred.
 
3.   Conversion.  The outstanding principal amount of and any accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall be convertible into capital stock of the Company as follows:
 
(a)
Default.  In the event of a default during the period between the date of this Note and Maturity, then the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of this Note shall be converted automatically, without any further act of the Company or its shareholders, into  fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Company in lieu of repayment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest under this Note.  Any such conversion shall be deemed to occur at the close of business on the date of Maturity.  The number of shares of New Common stock issuable upon conversion under this paragraph shall be determined by dividing the outstanding principal balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder through the Maturity date by the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the shares on the date of  Maturity; or (ii) the price per share paid by and institutional investor based on its own independent valuation conducted as part of its due diligence (the “Default Conversion Price”). 
(b)
Holders’ Option to Convert. Holders have the option anytime during the twenty-four month period to convert this Note either  to Common Stock or have the note paid with any accrued interest in full. If, in the event, holders elect to convert the Note to shares of common stock the conversion will be at the fair market value of the shares on the date of conversion less a discount of twenty-five percent.
(c)
Mechanics of Conversion.
 
(i) Upon conversion of this Note under paragraph 3(a) or (b) above, all amounts due and owing under this Note shall be converted automatically, without any further action by the Holders and whether or not this Note is surrendered to the Company, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, as applicable, which shall be deemed issued and outstanding for all purposes from and after the time of such conversion as specified in paragraph 3(a) above.  As promptly as possible after such conversion, the Company shall issue to the Holders a certificate representing the number of shares of Common Stock, as applicable, issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the terms of this Note (the shares actually issuable hereunder being referred to as the “Conversion Shares”) and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share otherwise issuable upon such conversion, in accordance with paragraph 3(e) below; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the Holders such certificate or check unless and until this Note, or an appropriate affidavit of loss, is delivered to the Company. 
 
(ii) In the event of any conversion of this Note under this Section 3, the person in whose name the certificate for Conversion Shares is to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Conversion Shares on the date as of which conversion is deemed to occur as specified in paragraphs 3(a)  above, as the case may be. 
 
 
 
- 4 -

 
 
  (iii) Whatever the Conversion Price is the conversion price at which this Note is actually converted under this Section 3 shall be referred to herein as the “Note Conversion Price”.
 
(d)
Fractional Shares.  No fractional Conversion Shares or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of this Note.  Instead of any fractional Conversion Shares that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of the price at which the Note was converted, as applicable.
(e)
Stock Dividends, Splits and Combinations.  If the number of shares of the class of capital stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of this Note outstanding at any time after the date of issuance of this Note (the “Issue Date”) is increased by a stock dividend or other distribution payable in shares of such stock or by a subdivision, split-up or reclassification of outstanding shares of such stock, then immediately after the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such stock dividend or the effective date of such subdivision, split-up or reclassification, as the case may be, the Series B Conversion Price or the Default Conversion Price, as applicable, shall be reduced appropriately so that the Holders shall be entitled to receive the number of Conversion Shares that it would have owned immediately following such action had this Note been converted immediately prior thereto.  If the number of shares of the class of capital stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of this Note outstanding at any time after the Issue Date is decreased by a combination or reclassification of the outstanding Conversion Shares, then, immediately after the effective date of such combination or reclassification, the Series B Conversion Price or the Default Conversion Price, as applicable, shall be increased appropriately so that the Holders shall be entitled to receive the number of Conversion Shares that it would have owned immediately following such action had this Note been converted immediately prior thereto.
(f)
Certain Adjustments.  The Note Conversion Price shall be adjusted up or down, as the case may be, to take into account any stock split, combination, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event after the date hereof with respect to the Company’s common stock or any other class of capital stock of the Company in order that the number of shares of Series B Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, issuable upon conversion of this Note and the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, issuable upon conversion of this Note will not be adversely or positively affected by any such event. 
(g)
Capital Reorganization or Reclassification.  If the Conversion Shares shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock or other property, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above), then in each such event the Holders shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property that would have been receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change in respect of the number of Conversion Shares into which this Note could have

 
 
- 5 -

 
 
 
(h)
been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
Merger or Consolidation.  Subject to the terms of Section 2(i) above, if at any time or from time to time there shall be an acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of merger, consolidation or otherwise, resulting in the exchange of the outstanding Conversion Shares for securities or consideration issued or caused to be issued by the acquiring entity or any of its affiliates, then, as a part of such acquisition, provision shall be made so that the Holders shall thereafter be entitled to receive, upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the acquiring corporation resulting from such acquisition to which the Holders would have been entitled if the Holders had converted this Note immediately prior to such acquisition.  In any such case appropriate adjustments shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3(i) with respect to the rights of the Holders after such acquisition to the end that the provisions of this Section 3(i) shall be applicable after that event in as nearly equivalent a manner as may be practicable.
(i)
Notice to Holders.  In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in Sections 3(f), (g), (h), or (i), the Company shall give notice to the Holders, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place.  Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Series B Conversion Price or the Default Conversion Price, as applicable, and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon conversion of this Note.  In the case of any action that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least twenty (20) days prior to the taking of such proposed action.  Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.
(j)
Costs.  The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp, transfer or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for such shares in a name other than that of the Holders.
(k)
Reservation of Shares.  The Company shall take all necessary action to reserve, and shall reserve at all times so long as any principal amount under this Note remains outstanding, free from statutory or contractual preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, sufficient shares of Series B Stock, if applicable, to provide for the conversion of this Note and sufficient shares of Company Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Conversion Shares into Company Common Stock.
(l)
No Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, issuance or sale of securities or otherwise, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Section 3 or the other provisions of this Note and will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all provisions hereof and in the taking
 
 
- 6 -

 
 
 
of all actions as may be necessary in order to protect the conversion and other rights of the Holders hereunder against impairment.
 
4.   Assignment.  Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Section 6 below, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holders shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.
 
5.   Waiver and Amendment.  Any provision of this Note may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders.  Any amendment, waiver, modification or consent entered into pursuant to this Section 5 shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
 
6.   Transfer of this Note.  The Holders understand that the Company will instruct any transfer agent not to register the transfer of this Note (or the Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of this Note) unless the conditions specified in the legend set out in all capital letters at the top of this Note are satisfied.
 
7.   Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery; upon confirmed transmission by telecopy or telex if sent during normal business hours of the recipient (or if not, on the next business day of the recipient); three days after deposit with the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; or otherwise upon delivery by hand or by messenger or one day after deposit with a nationally recognized courier service, addressed (a) if to Holders, to the Holders’ address as set forth below, or to such other address as such Holders shall have furnished to the Company in writing, or (b) if to the Company, if to the Company, one copy shall be sent to MPM Technologies, Inc., 1727 E. Springfield Avenue, Ste. C, Spokane, WA 99202, Attention: Peter Chase, Chief Executive Officer, or to such other addresses as the Company shall have furnished to the Holders.

MPM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

CONVERTIBLE NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

April 29, 2013

This Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (this "Agreement") is made as of April 29, 2013 by and among MPM Technologies, Inc., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), and each of the purchasers listed on Exhibit A attached to this Agreement (each a "Purchaser" and together the "Purchasers").

RECITALS

The Company desires to issue and sell, and each Purchaser desires to purchase, a convertible promissory note in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B (the "Note") which shall be convertible on the terms stated therein into equity securities of the Company. The Notes and the equity securities issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof (and the securities issuable upon conversion of such equity securities) are collectively referred to herein as the "Securities."

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of Notes.

(a.) Sale and Issuance of Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Purchaser agrees to purchase at the Closing (as defined below) and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Purchaser a Note in the principal amount set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on Exhibit A. The purchase price of each Note shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Note. The Company's agreements with each of the Purchasers are separate agreements, and the sales of the Notes to each of the Purchasers are separate sales.

(b.) Closing; Delivery.

(i.) Each purchase and sale of the Notes shall take place at the Company's offices at such time and place as the Company and the Purchasers mutually agree upon, orally or in writing (each, a "Closing"). The Company shall update Exhibit A to reflect each sale of Notes and such update shall not constitute an amendment of this Agreement.

(ii.) At each Closing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser the Note to be purchased by such Purchaser against (1) payment of the purchase price therefor by check payable to the Company or by wire transfer to a bank designated by the Company, (2) delivery of counterpart signature pages to this Agreement and (3) delivery of a validly

 
 

 
 
 
completed and executed IRS Form W-8 BEN or IRS Form W-9, as applicable, establishing such Purchaser's exemption from withholding tax, which forms are attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C
 
2. Stock Purchase Agreement.  Each Purchaser understands and agrees that the conversion of the Notes into equity securities of the Company will require such Purchaser's execution of certain agreements relating to the purchase and sale of such securities as well as any rights relating to such equity securities.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:

(a.) Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Oregon and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure so to qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

(b.) Authorization. This Agreement, the Notes, and the stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company; however, (i) no shareholder approval has been obtained, (ii) the Company has not obtained the necessary corporate approval for the authorization of the issuance of any additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock or any new series of Preferred Stock into which the Notes may convert (together, the "Preferred Stock"), or and (iii) a sufficient number of shares of Preferred Stock has not been authorized under the Company's Articles of Incorporation to provide for the issuance of such shares upon conversion or exercise (as applicable) of the Notes. This Agreement and the Notes, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

(b.) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser's representation to the Company, which by the Purchaser's execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Securities to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring any of the Securities.

(c.)

The Company will not have or be subject to any liability to the Purchaser or any other person resulting from the distribution to the Purchaser, or the Purchaser's use of, any information not expressly contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, any offering memorandum provided to the Purchaser).  The Purchaser (i) has carefully read this Agreement and the Note, (ii) has had the opportunity to consult independent financial, tax, valuation, legal, and other experts, (iii) understands that the investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and is suitable only for persons of adequate financial means who have no need for liquidity, (iv) recognizes the highly speculative nature of the investment in the Securities and understands that the Purchaser may not be able to liquidate this investment, (v) understands that he or she could sustain a complete loss of the investment in the

The Purchaser understands that the Securities are "restricted securities" under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser's control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

(e.) Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any securities issued in respect thereof or exchange therefor, may bear one or all of the following legends:

(i.) "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF.
