Did Mega Media get in trouble with the Pulse 87 beg-a-thon?

MMDA recently filed a form 8-K, here's what it said

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities


Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 23, 2009, we entered into 9% convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") with certain investors (the "Holders") for an aggregate of $68,050. The maturity date of these Notes is October 1, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the Holders shall have the right from time to time, and at any time on or prior to maturity to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of these Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of these Notes shall be determined by dividing the amount of principal and accrued interest to be converted ("Conversion Amount") by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Conversion"). The Conversion Price shall be equal to the average closing bid price of the Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg L.P.) on the OTC Bulletin Board for the ten (10) trading days prior to the date of the Conversion Notice (the "Conversion Date") multiplied by .80 provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by to our company before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such Conversion Date. However, the Conversion Price shall not exceed $0.05.

The foregoing description of the Notes contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete texts attached hereto as exhibits.



Item 3.02 Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K that relates to the recent sales of unregistered securities is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. These securities are issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance securities by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a "public offering" as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a "public offering." Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.

Is item 3.02 directly related to the beg-a-thon? It didn't say anywhere on the site or on my Facebook group that they were selling shares of MMDA, in fact there was a disclaimer on the bottom that donations were not tax deductible and listeners were NOT buying securities of MMDA by donating. Technically, they were selling items (and dates with dance artists) for highly inflated prices.

If I cut a penny in half, I could get a share of Mega Media and still have something left over :-(
 
that is why the stock will ALWAYS be worthless...because the give out millions of shares for nothing...the company has no worth and it is a modern marvel how it is still operating
 
nick - glad you are reading the finance releases..as you can also see all the legal trouble they are in as well
 
Pulse isn't even about being a (microwave oven) radio station anymore-
it's all legal mubo jumbo and penny stocks and beg a thons...
what a joke
 
Nick why do you keep feeding these people. Just enjoy the music. Let Mega Media worry about there financial problems.

Even if Mega Media was a multi million dollar company like ClearChannel, and if Pulse had all the sales and ads as well as high ratings, they would still bash Pulse.

Well, there goes my $50 :-\
 
nah pulse is a great station..just ran by the wrong people
 
Well, what's the bottom line? Does this statement mean that they got in trouble by asking for donations?

If they needed only $68,000, they could have gotten that by just keeping the donations from day 1.
 
the whole thing was a farse....they never stated the goal...and NEVER said how much money they got via donations...it just stopped out of nowhere...
 
It has nothing to do with the "beg-a-thon."

The company took out a loan, one for $47,000+ and one for $22,000 from two of its shareholders for 60 days, with a maturity date of October 1.

The investors, in return for making the loans (to pay debts) receive "convertible shares" worth, at the time of filing the 8-K with the SEC, $.001 (one thousandth of a cent.)  The "loaner" may "convert" the new shares to a value of up to $.05 (a nickel) a share if the company can raise more funding on its own between now and October 1.

The company may ask the shareholders to "extend" the maturity date if it appears unable to pay back the $68,000.  At that time, the company would be, as a protection for the creditors / investors, be pushed into bankruptcy.

The "shares" of this stock were not offered to the public, as, at present ($.0046 per share,) the stock is worthless.  However, a "conversion" of those two promissory notes, even at a nickel a share, would be lucrative for the two investors if the company can survive for 60 days.

The problem will be if the stock can stay above $.001 where it is perilously close.  If it goes below that, then, the two investors (their names are readily available) will have no choice but to push the company into bankruptcy.

A convertible promissory note, though common, is a still an unconventional way of "growing" a company, but Mega has no option at this point but to do so by offering this option, hence, why it had to file, within four days of its "offering" to file a "current report" with the SEC.

Things can happen, obviously, between now and October 1.  With the stock share now a half cent under a penny in the last week, it's quite a chance to "gamble" on the stock not going lower and whether the investment loan, even if "converted" will keep the company operating.

It has nothing to do with any "trouble"  ... it's a form that all publicly traded companies must file within 4 days of an "event" affecting stockholders.

great explanation....if you read the other press releases you can see everyone they are getting sued by too

Trock, I'm glad YOU said this because I've been feeling this way a long time now.

At this point, I'm just working on a "Plan B", one that is about the future of dance music.
 
tony - make it slick looking viral, strickly webstream site..if you break a new artist: facebook/twitter/ilike it out there to your database..be the future before this comes the norm....as far as income....banner ads, affiliate marketing, google ad words...its easy to do if you have the listernership pulse has or did...
 
So basically, Mega Media must raise $68,000 to pay back the investors by October 1, or else it must file for bankruptcy, and if it does that, Pulse is history. And if the stock price drops below .001 before then, the investors can force Mega Media into bankruptcy.
I don't think that Pulse 87 will make it to 2010, let's hope I'm wrong.
 
No, it can ask for an extension as a result of the "private sale" of stock to the two investors. However, it they can't pay it back, no telling what the other stockholders would do and they might kick some people out of the "execuitve suite," off the board or other things that happen ... like filing for bankruptcy.

At the same time, if the stock keeps heading south and the investors can convert it to up to a nickle a share, they can force it into bankruptcy and become creditors to protect their interests.
