Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 29, 2019, Monaker Group, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” and “us”), borrowed $171,500 ($175,000 less a 2% original issuance discount) from certain of its directors and entered into Promissory Notes to evidence such loans, as discussed below in Item 2.03, which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.01 by reference in its entirety.

Sale of Verus Series A Preferred Stock

On October 29, 2019, the Company entered into Stock Purchase Agreements with each of (a) the Donald P. Monaco Insurance Trust, of which Donald Monaco is the trustee and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Trust”); (b) William Kerby, the Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company (“Kerby”); and (c) Simon Orange, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Orange”)(collectively, the “Purchasers” and the “Stock Purchase Agreements”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreements, the Company agreed to sell the Purchasers 25,562,500 shares (1,562,500 shares to Kerby and 12,500,000 shares to each of the Trust and Orange) of restricted Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Verus International, Inc. (formerly known as RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“Verus”), which the Company then held (out of the 44,470,101 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Verus which the Company then held) for an aggregate of $425,000 ($25,000 from Kerby and $200,000 each from the Trust and Orange), or $0.016 per share. The purchase price for the Verus shares was determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, based on among other things, the recent trading prices of Verus’ common stock on the OTCQB Market, as publicly reported. The sales contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreements with the Trust and Kerby closed on October 30, 2019 and the sale contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement with Orange is anticipated to close shortly after November 4, 2019.

Each of the purchasers agreed not to sell or transfer any of the purchased shares for a period of 30 days following the closing.

The above summary of the Stock Purchase Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreements, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference in their entirety.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

The information and disclosures in Item 1.01 above relating to the Stock Purchase Agreements and the sale of Verus shares are incorporated into this Item 2.01 by reference in their entirety.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

On October 29, 2019, the Company entered into Promissory Notes in the amount of $150,000 and $25,000, with Robert J. Mendola, Jr. and Pasquale LaVecchia, respectively, two of its directors (the “Promissory Notes”) to evidence amounts borrowed from such directors.

 

The amounts borrowed under the Promissory Notes accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and are due and payable on February 1, 2020, provided that the notes may be prepaid at any time without penalty (provided that all interest that would have been due had the notes remained outstanding through maturity must be paid at the time of repayment). The Company paid a 2% original issue discount in connection with the notes. The Promissory Notes contain standard and customary events of default. The Company agreed pursuant to the Promissory Notes that without the written consent of the note holders, the Company would not sell more than $500,000 in debt following the date of the notes, until such notes are repaid in full.

 

The foregoing description of the Promissory Notes is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, incorporated by reference as Exhibits 10.4 and 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated by reference in this Item 2.03 in their entirety.
