Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 28, 2023, RocketFuel Blockchain Company, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) received from JE Pitzner Holding ApS, a private company incorporated in Denmark (“JEPH”), an executed subscription agreement to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock at a cash purchase price of $0.25 per share. On October 5, 2023, JEPH notified us of its desire to cancel the subscription agreement. We have taken the position that the subscription agreement is not subject to cancellation and that JEPH remains obligated to complete the purchase. Subsequent to October 5, 2023, representatives of the Company and JEPH have had several discussions concerning the status of the subscription.

 

While the subscription agreement states that it is governed by Nevada law, JEPH has no presence in Nevada or the U.S., and it is unclear what our remedies and rights would be should we attempt to enforce our rights in Denmark and whether we could pursue the principals of JEPH. As of the date of this Report, we are continuing to have discussions with JEPH, and have not determined whether to pursue legal action.

 

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

As described above in Item 1.01, which disclosures are incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02 in their entirety, on September 28, 2023 we received a subscription agreement to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock for a cash purchase price of $0.25 per share. As of the date of this Report, the purchase price has not been received and the shares have not been issued.

 

We claim an exemption from registration for the issuance of the shares pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D thereunder, since the foregoing issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipients were (i) “accredited investors”; and/or (ii) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a registration statement under the Securities Act, and the recipients represented that they acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances, and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.
