On March 1, 2010, Electronic Sensor Technology, Inc. (the "Registrant") received $200,000 from Halfmoon Bay Capital Ltd in exchange for (1) a debenture bearing an interest rate of 9% with a maturity of one year; such debenture grants Halfmoon Bay a security interest in all of the tangible and intangible property of the Registrant and, to the extent such property is subject to a prior lien, a subordinate security interest and (2) a warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of the Registrant with an exercise price of $0.02 cents per share and an expiration date of August 31, 2012 (the "Warrant").

Halfmoon Bay currently owns approximately 55% of the outstanding common stock of the Registrant and beneficially owns an additional 10% of the outstanding common stock of the Registrant by virtue of the shares underlying a 9% convertible debenture issued by the Registrant to Halfmoon Bay on March 28, 2008.
