On January 29, 2013, AMP Holding Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a subscription agreement with an accredited investor (the “January 2013 Accredited Investor”) pursuant to which the January 2013 Accredited Investor purchased 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “January 2013 Subscription Shares”) for a purchase price of $100,000, together with a common stock purchase warrant to acquire 250,000 shares of common stock at $0.40 per share for a period of three years (the “January 2013 Warrant” and together with the January 2013 Subscription Shares, the “January 2013 Securities”).

In addition, on January 29, 2013, an accredited investor (the “Holder”) loaned the Company $100,000.  In consideration of such loan, the Company issued the Holder a Promissory Note (the “Note”) which bears interest at 10% per annum and matures on January 29, 2014 (the “Note Maturity Date”).  The Note can be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without the consent of the Holder provided that the Company shall pay all accrued interest on the principal so prepaid to date of such prepayment.

The sale of the Note was completed on January 29, 2013. As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated on $100,000 in face amount of the Note issued to the Holder. The Note and the January 2013 Securities are debt obligations arising other than in the ordinary course of business which constitute direct financial obligations of the Company.

The January 2013 Securities and the Note were offered and sold in private placement transactions made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and/or Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act. The January 2013 Accredited Investor and the Holder are accredited investors as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
