2013 Series A Debenture Extension
 
On October 7, 2013, we entered into a new Placement Agent Agreement (“2013 Agent Agreement”) with CRI related to the further extension of the Series A Debentures, as amended, due August 1, 2013. Under the terms of the 2013 Agent Agreement, CRI acted as our exclusive placement agent in connection with an amendment of the Series A Debentures. Under the amendment, the term of Series A Debentures was extended to reflect a due date of either February 1, 2014 or August 1, 2014, at the election of the Series A Debenture Holder. The interest rate during the extension period remains 15% per annum, due quarterly in arrears. All other terms of the Series A Debentures remain the same.
 
As compensation for their placement agent services, CRI received 1) a cash fee of 5% ($39,750) of the gross amount ($795,000) of existing Series A Debentures and the CAM note combined, 2) a 3-year warrant to purchase 75,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013), and 3) a non-accountable expense allowance paid with 115,000 restricted shares of ABMC common stock (in lieu of cash).  We also paid $4,000 in legal fees incurred by CRI. These costs will be amortized over the term of the 12-month extension beginning in October 2013.
 
On October 7, 2013, we entered into a new Bridge Loan Agreement and Note (the “2013 Bridge Loan”) with CAM. The 2013 Bridge Loan is in the amount of $200,000 and was used to pay off the existing Bridge Loan with Cam ($150,000) and the remaining $50,000 was used to pay placement agent fees and expenses as indicated in the preceding paragraph. Net proceeds of $6,250 were remitted to the Company. The 15% interest on the existing Bridge Loan of $150,000 was paid with 225,000 restricted shares of ABMC common stock.
 
The maturity date of the 2013 Bridge Loan is August 1, 2014 and it bears simple interest in advance of 15% to be paid in the form of 300,000 shares of restricted shares of ABMC common stock.  In addition to the interest, as inducement to enter into the 2013 Bridge Loan, we agreed to issue 153,486 restricted shares of ABMC common stock.
 
  On October 7, 2013, we entered into an Agreement to the Series A Debenture (the “2013 Series A Debenture Amendment”) with 30 of the 32 holders of Series A Debentures (the “Debenture Holders”) (representing $634,500 of Series A Debentures). One of the Debenture Holders (representing $10,500 in Series A Debentures) did not wish to extend and we will use the net proceeds and cash on hand to pay the principal amount due to this Holder. One of the Debenture Holders transferred their investment to another existing Debenture Holder. As previously indicated, the extension period of either 6 or 12 months was at the election of the Debenture Holder. 27 of the 30 Debenture Holders  (representing $543,500 of Series A Debentures) elected to extend for a period of 12 months. The other 3 (representing $91,000 in Series A Debentures) elected to extend for a period of 6 months. The 27 holders that elected to extend for a 12-month period were each issued a warrant to purchase 1 shares of common stock for each $1.00 that was extended. The Company issued 2 year warrants to purchase 543,500 shares of ABMC common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013). 
 
Change in Executive Officer due to Death
 
On October 30,2013, our Board of Directors appointed Melissa A. Waterhouse as our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. On October 29, 2013, we were notified that our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer Stan Cipkowski was unable to continue serving as our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer for medical reasons. Subsequently, on November 1, 2013, we were notified of Mr. Cipkowski’s death.

OralStat
 
In November 2013, we were informed that the FDA determined that our OralStat was not substantially equivalent to the predicate market device. In accordance with the Consent Decree, the Company has temporarily ceased marketing and selling its OralStat to the workplace (non-forensic) market but intends to continue marketing and selling OralStat to the forensic market and for export outside the United States.
