The total amount of funds required by I2BF to purchase the Notes and the Common Stock pursuant to the Agreement was $585,077 in cash investment which was furnished from the working capital of I2BF. No additional funds were required to acquire beneficial ownership of the Common Stock reported on this Schedule 13D.

 

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

The information set forth and/or incorporated by reference in Items 2 and 3 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

The acquisition by I2BF of beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Company, as described herein, was effected (a) because of I2BF’s belief that the Company represents an attractive investment based on the Company’s business prospects and strategy, (b) to help finance the Company’s general corporate operations.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company offered to the Investors: (a) a minimum of $885,077 in aggregate principal of Secured Promissory Notes (“Notes”) issued for new cash investment in the Company as of the date of the Agreement (the “Initial Investment”), (b) up to an additional $664,923 principal amount of Notes to be issued to I2BF in five subsequent closings, each in the allocations and amounts set forth on the Schedule of Anticipated Closings to the Agreement and (c) as consideration for such new investment, Common Stock representing an aggregate of seventy five percent (75%) of the fully diluted equity of the Company and certain adjustment rights relating to such Common Stock as are set forth in the Agreement.

The first Closing on March 4, 2010 (the “Initial Closing”) was for the sale of Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $885,077 and an aggregate of 111,429,453 shares of the Common Stock of the Company, of which Notes in the principal amount of $585,077 and 63,240,120 shares were issued to I2BF and Notes in the principal amount of $300,000 and 48,189,333 shares were issued to Blue Day, evidencing not less than seventy one percent (71%) of the outstanding Common Stock determined on a fully diluted basis, and shall be consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Agreement (the “Closing Date”).

I2BF will make additional investments in Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $664,923 and shall be issued 23,877,445 additional shares of Common Stock, and additional Closings shall be held with respect to such investment (each, an “Anticipated Closing” and collectively, the “Anticipated Closings”) as set forth on the Schedule of Anticipated Closings to the Agreement, subject to the approval by the Investors of the Company’s Proposed Budget for the month following such Anticipated Closing Date and the fulfillment by the Company, to the satisfaction of the Investors, of the applicable Funding Milestones set forth in Exhibit C to the Agreement. An additional Note shall be issued to I2BF and certificate(s) evidencing the additional shares of Common Stock issuable to I2BF and Blue Day shall be issued with respect to the Securities purchased and issued each Anticipated Closing. The ownership of I2BF and Blue Day following the completion of the Anticipated Closings shall be seventy five percent (75%) of the outstanding Common Stock determined on a fully diluted basis.

The Notes bear an interest rate of 15% per annum and are payable in full on the earliest to occur of (a) December 31, 2012; (b) a change of control of the Company; or (c) when, upon or after the occurrence of an event of default such amounts are declared payable by the Investors.

The Agreement will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) the maturity date of any Note, (ii) 20 days following the proposed date of an Anticipated Closing if the operating budget for the Company and its subsidiaries for the succeeding month has not been approved by a newly created Special Finance Committee (as discussed below), (iii) the closing of the PAC Financing (as defined in the Agreement) or (iv) the date on which the balance of the Investors’ commitments have been disbursed in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

The Agreement contains certain operational covenants, including that the Company continue in good faith negotiations with Banco Internacional del Perú S.A.A. (“Interbank”) to obtain a credit facility of not less than $24,000,000 (the “Interbank Financing”). The Company is also not allowed, without the consent of the Investors: to incur indebtedness for borrowed money or financed equipment in excess of $10,000 in the aggregate; to pledge, encumber or grant any security interest in any assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to any third party; to increase the compensation or benefits to any employee or contractor; or to undertake any future equity or debt financing other than the closing of the Interbank Financing or the PAC Financing.

The Agreement contains certain other covenants and agreements, including that the Company initiate the deregistration of its Common Stock.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Company will also establish an equity incentive plan in order to retain the services of, and provide incentives for, its employees, consultants, officers and directors. An equity incentive plan has not yet been formally adopted, and no option grants have yet been made, but the Company has agreed to reserve approximately 19% (on a fully-diluted basis) of its Common Stock for option grants to be made under such equity incentive plan to members of management and the board of directors. Any options granted under such plan will vest (i) 50% upon the closing and initial funding of a the Interbank Financing and (ii) 50% upon the Company’s first commercial shipment of ethanol yielding gross revenue to the Company of at least $100,000.

Furthermore, the Company has agreed to modify its compensation structure with respect to employees, consultants, officers and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries, such that current compensation levels of such persons will be decreased and such persons will instead be eligible to receive payments in the future upon the occurrence of certain events (including the closing and initial funding of the Interbank Financing, if any).
