Item 2.04. Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
 
On September 29, 2006, EarthShell Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Letter Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cornell Capital Partners, LP (“Cornell”) pursuant to which Cornell agreed to forbear from exercising certain rights and remedies under that certain Secured Convertible Debenture, dated December 30, 2005 (the “Debenture”) and that certain Registration Rights Agreement (“RRA”), of even date with the Debenture (the Agreement, Debenture, RRA and all other agreements, contacts, instruments or other items delivered in connection with the Debenture are collectively referred to as the “Transaction Documents”) until December 31, 2006.
 
This forbearance agreement with Cornell Capital Partners has expired and the Company is in default under its financing agreements with Cornell. The financing agreements call for the Company to register shares of common stock underlying its convertible debentures. The Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission earlier in 2006, but the registration statement has not yet been declared effective. As a result of the default, Cornell is entitled to liquidated damages equal to one percent (1%) of the liquidated value of the Debenture for each thirty (30) day period after December 31, 2006 for which the registration statement is not effective. Additionally, Cornell has a right to accelerate the due date of the Debenture, demand payment of the principal and accrued interest of approximately $5,040,000, and begin collection efforts and/or attach their collateral securing the Debenture.

 
Item 8.01 Other Events
 
As previously announced on December 13, 2006, the Company does not have either the cash or commitments for either interim or long term funding to sustain its operations, and therefore cannot pay its obligation to its secured creditor or meet other on-going obligations. The Company is reviewing any and all options available in the event that the Company is unable to secure the necessary funding to continue operations.
