Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 25, 2011, American Scientific Resources, Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into a securities exchange agreement (the “Agreement”) with Granite Financial Group, LLC (“Granite”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company exchanged (i) a 12% secured promissory note issued in favor of Granite on October 12, 2010, in the principal amount of $100,000 (the “October Note”) and (ii) a 12% secured promissory note issued in favor of Granite on November 5, 2010, in the principal amount of $60,000 (the “November Note,” and together with the October Note, the “Notes”), in exchange for a 12% convertible debenture (the “Debenture”).

The Debenture matures on December 26, 2012, and is in the principal amount of $174,900, which is equal to the principal balance of the Notes plus accrued interest. The Company shall pay interest on the Debenture at the rate of 12% per annum, and such interest shall accrue daily commencing on August 25, 2011, until payment in full of the outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts which may become due thereunder, has been made. Further, the Company may prepay any portion of the principal amount of the Debenture without prior written consent of Granite.

At any time after the Debenture’s issuance until the date on which the Debenture is no longer outstanding, the Debenture may be converted, at Granite’s option, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, by delivering a conversion notice to the Company. The conversion price of the Debenture is $0.02, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Debenture.

The above descriptions of the Agreement and the Debenture do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the documents themselves.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As more fully described in Item 1.01 above, the Company issued the Debenture in favor of Granite. The Debenture was issued by the Company in reliance on an exemption under Rule 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
