Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 29, 2007, the Registrant entered into a Stock Purchase and Investment Agreement with American International Industries, Inc. (“AMIN”). The agreement with AMIN was for an aggregate of $2,000,000 through the sale and issuance of 1,000,000 shares of the Registrant’s restricted common stock for $2.00 per share. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase and Investment Agreement, the Registrant issued 1,000,000 shares of its restricted common stock in exchange for payment by AMIN of $1,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 200,000 shares of AMIN’s restricted common stock, valued at $5.00 per share based on the trading price of AMIN’s common stock on the Nasdaq® Capital Market.

 

The Registrant intends to use the cash proceeds for general working capital and funding of new financial service divisions. Further, the Registrant currently intends to hold the AMIN shares as an investment.

 

Section 3 – Securities and Trading Markets

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

On November 29, 2007, the Registrant authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of its restricted common stock pursuant to the Stock Purchase and Investment Agreement with AMIN.

 

The Registrant believes that the issuance of the shares described above will be exempt from registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D, Rule 506. The shares will be issued directly by the Registrant and the authorization did not involve a public offering or general solicitation. AMIN’s management was afforded an opportunity for effective access to files and records of the Registrant that contained the relevant information needed to make its investment decisions, including the Registrant’s financial statements and 34 Act reports. The Registrant reasonably believed that AMIN, immediately prior to authorizing the issuance of the shares, had such knowledge and experience in the Registrant’s financial and business matters that it was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment. AMIN’s management had the opportunity to speak with Registrant’s management on several occasions prior to its investment decision.
