ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

Black Ice Financing

 

Effective July 31, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Black Ice Purchase Agreement”) with Black Ice Advisors, LLC (“Black Ice”), pursuant to which Black Ice agreed to purchase from the Company a Convertible Redeemable Note (the “Black Ice Note” and, together with the Black Ice Purchase Agreement, the “Black Ice Transaction Documents”) in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000. The Company will receive net proceeds from the Buyer of approximately $47,500 after deducting certain fees and expenses of Black Ice. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Black Ice Note for its general corporate purposes.

 

The Black Ice Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest and principal are payable on July 31, 2020. Any amount of principal or interest on the Black Ice Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the default rate of interest of 24% per annum. The Company has the right to prepay the principal amount of the Black Ice Note and accrued interest in whole or in part at a prepayment price equal to (i) 115% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right in the first thirty (30) days following the issue date, (ii) 120% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right between the 31st and 60th day, (iii) 125% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right between the 61st and 90th day, (iv) 130% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right between the 91st and 120th day, (v) 135% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right between the 121st and 150th day and (vi) 140% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right between the 151st and 180th day. The Black Ice Note cannot be prepaid after the 180th day following the issue date. If an event of default as set forth in the Black Ice Transaction Documents occurs, Black Ice may declare the Note immediately due and payable.

 

The Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time after January 27, 2020 at a conversion price equal to 60% of the lowest trading price during the 20 trading days ending on the conversion date on the principal trading market for the Company’s common stock. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and certain other similar or dilutive transactions, and subject to the Black Ice Transaction Documents.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Black Ice Transaction Documents are qualified in their entirety by reference to terms of such Black Ice Transaction Documents, which have been filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Power Up Financing

 

Effective July 31, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Power Up Purchase Agreement”) with Power Up Lending Group Ltd., a Virginia corporation (“Power Up”), pursuant to which Power Up agreed to purchase from the Company a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Power Up Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $20,500. The Company will receive net proceeds from Power Up of approximately $17,500 after deducting certain fees and expenses of Power Up and its counsel. In connection with the sale of the Power Up Note, the Company also delivered a warrant (the “Warrant” and, together with the Power Up Note and the Power Up Purchase Agreement, the “Power Up Transaction Documents”) to Power Up to purchase up to 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to the terms and conditions described below.

The Power Up Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest and principal are payable on July 31, 2020. Any amount of principal or interest on the Power Up Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the default rate of interest of 22% per annum. The Company has the right to prepay the principal amount of the Power Up Note and accrued interest in whole or in part at a prepayment price equal to 150% of the principal amount plus accrued interest if the Company exercises its right prior to the 180th day following the issue date of the Power Up Note. The Power Up Note cannot be prepaid after the 180th day following the issue date. If an event of default as set forth in the Power Up Transaction Documents occurs, Power Up may declare the Power Up Note immediately due and payable and the Company will be obligated to pay a default amount equal to 150% of the principal amount (200% if the default relates to a failure to deliver shares upon conversion) plus accrued interest at the default rate.

 

The Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time after January 27, 2020 at a conversion price equal to 60% multiplied by the Market Price of the Company’s common stock. The “Market Price” is defined to mean the lowest trading price during the 25 trading days ended on the last trading day before the conversion date on the principal trading market for the Company’s common stock. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and certain other similar or dilutive transactions, and subject to the Power Up Transaction Documents.

 

The Warrant entitles the holder to purchase up to 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and certain other similar or dilutive transactions. The Warrant is also subject to cashless exercise in the event that the market price of the common stock is greater than the exercise price. The Warrant will expire on July 31, 2022.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Power Up Transaction Documents are qualified in their entirety by reference to terms of such Power Up Transaction Documents, which have been filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
