Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 29, 2008, VeriChip Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Xmark Corporation, a Canada corporation (“Xmark”, and together with the Company, the “Companies”), closed a $8.0 million debt financing with Valens Offshore SPV II, Corp. (the “Lender”), pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated February 29, 2008 (the “Agreement”), among the Companies, the Lender and LV Administrative Services, Inc., as administrative and collateral agent. The Lender is an affiliate of Kallina Corporation (“Kallina”) and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., which are lenders to Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. d/b/a Digital Angel (“Digital Angel”), an affiliate of the Company.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Lender extended financing to the Companies in the form of a $8.0 million secured term note (the “Note”). The Note accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum and has a maturity date of March 31, 2009. The entire outstanding principal balance under the Note together with any accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts then owing under the Note by the Companies to the Lender are due and payable on March 31, 2009. The terms of the Note allow for optional redemption by paying 100% of the principal amount plus any amounts then owing under the Note and $120,000, if such amounts are paid prior to the six month anniversary of February 29, 2008, or $240,000, if such amounts are paid on or after the six month anniversary of February 29, 2008. The Note also contains certain events of default, including, among other things, failure to pay, violation of covenants, and certain other expressly enumerated events. In the event of default, the Lender is entitled to additional interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note and on all outstanding obligations under the Note and the related agreements entered into in conjunction with the Note in an amount equal to 1% per month.

The Agreement contains various customary representations and warranties of the Companies as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants. To secure the Companies’ obligations under the Agreement, the Companies have granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Companies’ assets, including all of the issued and outstanding capital stock in Xmark. The Company previously granted a security interest in all of its assets, including the outstanding capital stock in Xmark, to Digital Angel. The Lender entered into a Subordination Agreement with Digital Angel, dated February 29, 2008, under which obligations of the Company to Digital Angel are subordinated in right of payment and priority to the payment in full due to the Lender by the Company.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued to the Lender 120,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share.

The Company used part of the proceeds of the financing with the Lender to prepay $5.3 million of debt owed to Digital Angel. In connection with the financing, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Digital Angel, dated February 29, 2008, under which the Company agreed, among other things, (i) to prepay the $5.3 million to Digital Angel, (ii) to amend that certain Third Amended and Restated Revolving Line of Credit Note Working Capital dated as of February 8, 2007, from the Company in favor of Digital Angel (the “Revolving Note”) to reduce the grace period from thirty days to five business days, (iii) to include a cross-default provision under which an event of default under the Note, if not cured within the greater of the applicable cure period or ten days after the occurrence thereof, is an event of default under the Revolving Note and related agreements, and (iv) to amend that certain letter agreement between the Company and Digital Angel dated as of December 20, 2007 (the “December 2007 Letter Agreement”), to provide that the Company will have until 5:00 p.m. EST on October 30, 2008 to prepay in full the entire Outstanding Principal Amount (as defined in the December 2007 Letter Agreement) to Digital Angel by paying to Digital Angel $10 million, less the $500,000 paid pursuant to the December 2007 Letter Agreement, less the $5.3 million paid in connection with this financing, less other principal payments made to reduce the Outstanding Principal Amount between the date of the December 2007 Letter Agreement and the date of such prepayment, plus any accrued and unpaid interest between October 1, 2007 and the date of such prepayment. As a result of the $5.3 million payment, the Company will not be required to make any further debt service payments to Digital Angel until September 1, 2009.

On August 31, 2007 the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Kallina in connection with the execution of a Securities Purchase Agreement between Digital Angel and Kallina under which Digital Angel transferred to Kallina 200,000 shares of Company common stock that Digital Angel owned (the “Grant Shares”). The Registration Rights Agreement required that the Company register the Grant Shares for resale by Kallina. On February 29, 2008, the Company, Kallina and two entities to which Kallina assigned a portion of its interest in the Registration Rights Agreement, entered into a Letter Agreement. The Letter Agreement terminates the Registration Rights Agreement and provides that the Company will file a registration statement for the Grant Shares after April 30, 2008 only if Kallina or its assigns are unable to sell the Grant Shares pursuant to an exemption to registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.
