On February 1, 2008, Isabel Moeller, sister of our Chief Executive Officer, Klaus Moeller, loaned $310,000 to the Company at an interest rate equal to 8% per annum as a short term note payable.  The funds were borrowed from Ms. Moeller in order to reduce outstanding obligations due to Genius Products at that time. Subsequent agreements extended the maturity date to January 15, 2015 and reduced the stated interest rate to six (6%) percent per annum. Payments were made on the outstanding principal in the amount of $14,000 and $10,000 on February 9, 2011 and April 27, 2011, respectively. On April 1, 2011, Ms. Moeller converted $200,000 of the outstanding principle to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On March 31, 2012, Ms. Moeller agreed to convert the remaining balance, including outstanding principal and interest, in the amount of $173,385 to 866,925 shares of common stock of the Company, or $0.20 per share. The note was fully repaid as of March 31, 2012. Accrued interest was recorded for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 in the amounts of $0 and $33,982, respectively.

 

Notes were issued in favor of four of the Company’s officers for loans to the Company at various times during the years 2007 through 2009. Subsequent agreements amended the stated interest rate to 6% per annum and extended the maturity to January 15, 2015. Repayments were made on February 2, 2011 and April 27, 2011 in the aggregate amounts of $66,000 and $30,000, respectively. The amount due to the officers on these notes includes accrued but unpaid interest in the amounts of $41,916 and $34,957 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

 

On March 31, 2011, four of the officers agreed to convert accrued but unpaid salaries through December 31, 2010 to subordinated long term notes payable. In February 2011, as a result of an agreement by each of the four officers to retroactively decrease the amount of the annual salary for 2010 from $125,000 per annum per officer to $80,000, the amount of the notes were reduced to an aggregate of $1,620,137. On March 31, 2012, three of the officers agreed to convert the entire balance outstanding on their respective notes in the cumulative amount of $1,326,048, including principal and interest, to 6,630,241 shares of common stock of the Company as payment in full. The remaining officer converted a total of $246,113 of the outstanding balance for 1,230,566 shares of common stock of the Company. All shares issued in exchange for the notes were valued at $0.20 per share. The remaining note has a principal balance of $159,753, a maturity date of January 15, 2015 and a stated interest rate of six percent (6%) per annum. There is no prepayment penalty. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the accrued but unpaid interest totals $39,833 and $123,099, respectively.
