Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation.

On May 28, 2010, Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Liquidmetal” or the “Company”), issued a Subordinated Promissory Note (“Subordinated Note”) to Norden, LLC (“Norden”) in the principal amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) which bears simple interest at 13% per annum. The Subordinated Note was issued in consideration of a Two Million Dollar ($2,000,000) subordinated loan made by Norden to the Company. The outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under the Subordinated Note shall be due on the date earlier of i) January 3, 2011 or ii) the date on which all outstanding amounts are due under the Company’s 8% Senior Secured Convertible Notes due on January 3, 2011 (the “Senior Notes”). Following the due date, the balance of the unpaid principal and interest shall bear simple interest at 15% per annum.

The Subordinated Note may be repaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty or premium, but is subordinate in right of payment to the Senior Notes and may not be paid until after the Senior Notes are paid in full. Liquidmetal may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay all or any portion of the outstanding principal or accrued interest in cash or Company’s common stock or any combination thereof, provided that the Company elects to repay the Subordinated Note in shares common stock, such shares be valued at an amount equal to the lower of $0.26 per share or the average market price per share for the 10 previous trading days immediately prior to the date the payment is made. As a condition for Norden extending the foregoing loan, Carlyle Liquid Holdings, LLC, a current stockholder of the Company, granted to Norden a warrant to purchase up to 7,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to $0.26 per share, which warrant is exercisable for a period of 90-days beginning on the date in which the Company repays the Subordinated Note in cash (if it repays in cash).
