Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 30, 2012, CommerceTel Corporation (the “Company”) issued to a number of accredited investors its 10% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $4,303,568 (the “New Notes”), consisting of (i) $2,612,400 of new funds and (ii) $1,691,168 principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest outstanding under previously issued 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Notes (the “Old Notes”) that were cancelled and converted into the New Notes.  The New Notes accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  The entire principal amount under the New Notes (the “Principal Amount”) plus all accrued and unpaid interest is due on the earlier of (i) the date the Company completes a financing transaction for the offer and sale of shares of common stock (including securities convertible into or exercisable for its common stock), in an aggregate amount of no less than 125% of the principal amounts evidenced by the Notes (a “Qualifying Financing”), and (ii) October 15, 2012. Payments may be made in cash, or, at the option of the holder of the New Notes in securities to be issued by the Company in the Qualifying Financing at the same price paid for such securities by other investors.  The New Notes are secured by a first priority lien and security interest in all of the Company’s assets.

The Company will also issue to the holders of the New Notes on the date that is the earlier of the repayment of the New Notes or the completion of the Qualifying Financing, at their option:

·  
five year warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest divided by the per share purchase price of the Common stock offered and sold in the Qualifying Financing (the “Offering Price”) which Warrants shall be exercisable at the Offering Price and shall include cashless exercise provisions commencing 18 months from the date of issuance of the Warrants if there is not at that time an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock exercisable upon exercise of the Warrants, or

·  
that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product arrived at by multiplying (x) the Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest divided by the Offering Price and (y) 0.33

The Company has granted piggy-back registration rights with respect to the securities to be issued in connection with the New Notes.

The New Notes further provide that in the event of a change of control transaction, the proceeds from such transaction must be used by the Company to pay to the holders of the New Notes, pro rata based on the amount of New Notes owned by each holder, an amount equal to 1.5 times the amount of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the New Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest due thereunder, plus all other fees, costs or other charges due thereunder.

The holders of the New Notes were also granted the right to appoint two designees to serve as members of the Company’s board of directors, which members will also serve as members of the Compensation Committee and the Audit Committee of the Company’s board of directors.

The Company paid $188,475 in placement agent fees in connection with the sale and issuance of the New Notes.

The Company used $186,322 from the proceeds of the sale of the New Notes to pay off existing balances under the Old Notes that were not were cancelled and converted into the New Notes.
