Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Convertible Note Offering
 
From January 13, 2009, through January 26, 2009, Save the World Air, Inc. (the “Company”) conducted and concluded a private offering (the “Winter 2009 Offering”) of up to $250,000 aggregate face amount of its convertible notes (the “Winter 2009 Notes”) with 8 accredited investors. A total of $250,000 aggregate face amount of the Winter 2009 Notes were sold for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000.  The Winter 2009 Notes bear interest at 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The Winter 2009 Notes mature on the first anniversary of their date of issuance. The Winter 2009 Notes are convertible, at the option of the noteholder, into shares of common stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) at an initial conversion price equal to the average of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the five trading days preceding the closing dates of the Winter 2009 Offering (the “Conversion Price”). Up to 694,444 Conversion Shares are initially issuable at a Conversion Price of $0.36 per share.

Each of the investors in the Winter 2009 Offering received, for no additional consideration, a warrant (the “Winter 2009 Warrants”), entitling the holder to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares of common stock into which the Winter 2009 Notes are convertible (the “Warrant Shares”).  Each Winter 2009 Warrant is exercisable on a cash basis only at an initial price of $0.50 per share, and is exercisable immediately upon issuance and for a period of two (2) years from the date of issuance. Up to 347,722 Warrant Shares are initially issuable on exercise of the Winter 2009 Warrants.

The Company received $250,000 in net proceeds in the Winter 2009 Offering which will be used for general corporate purposes and working capital.
