Note 9. Collaboration Agreement with Related Party

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company entered into a Co-Venture Agreement (the “Co-Venture Agreement”) with MR, a wholly owned subsidiary of TEC, a related party. The Co-Venture Agreement grants TEC an exclusive non-transferrable license to use the Company’s technology and certain equipment solely for use at locations to operate the concept, as defined in the Co-Venture Agreement. Additionally, under the terms of the Co-Venture Agreement, equity representing 5% of MR’s ownership interest, on a fully-diluted basis, was issued to the Company. Throughout the duration of the Co-Venture Agreement, TEC will pay the Company a royalty based on gross revenue, as defined and subject to certain minimum royalties commencing with the first 12-month period subsequent to the respective milestone date of June 1, 2017. Under the terms of the original agreement, if the total royalty payments for locations in the United States and Canada together do not total at least the minimum royalty amount specified in the agreement, TEC may pay to VirTra the difference between the amount of total royalty payments and the minimum specified in the agreement to maintain exclusivity.

 

On August 16, 2017, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Co-Venture Agreement to permit TEC to sublicense the VirTra technology to third party operators of stand-alone location-based entertainment companies. TEC agreed to pay the Company royalties for any such sublicenses in an amount equal to 10% of the revenue paid to TEC in cases where TEC pays for the cost of the equipment for such location or 14% of the revenue paid to TEC in cases where it does not pay for the cost of the equipment.

 

On July 23, 2018, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Co-Venture Agreement with TEC to (i) confirm the minimum royalty deficiency benefit due for the royalty period ended May 31, 2018; (ii) establish payment terms for the minimum royalty deficiency benefit due, to include both cash and promissory note payment; (iii) clarify the exclusivity provisions of the Co-Venture Agreement; and (iv) amend the minimum royalty calculations to only TEC branded facilities.

 

On July 31, 2019, the Company executed the First Amendment to Convertible Promissory Note with TEC to extend the Convertible Note’s maturity date for one additional year to August 1, 2020 and TEC remitted a payment of 20% of its net proceeds from its recent public offering totaling $16,000. All other terms and conditions of the Convertible Note remain unchanged.

 

On July 28, 2020, the Company signed the Second Amendment to Convertible Promissory Note with TEC, to extend the maturity date from August 1, 2020 to August 1, 2023 and reconfirm the payment provision that 20% of net proceeds of any private placement or public offering of TEC’s securities during the note’s term shall be paid to VirTra in reduction of the note’s principal and accrued interest until paid in full.

 

In April 2018, MR effected a 1-for-12,000 reverse stock split, followed by a 2,000-for-1 forward stock split completed in November 2018. As a result, the Company holds, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 560,000 shares of TEC common stock representing approximately 4.8% of the issued and outstanding common shares of TEC. The Company has elected to utilize the cost minus impairment approach to record the investment in TEC because the investment does not have a readily determinable fair value as of the reporting date. Management regularly assesses the financial statements and other key financial factors related to the classification of its investment in TEC, such as the recent impact of COVID-19. The Company recorded its investment at cost minus impairment as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, at $700,000 and $840,000, respectively.

 

In addition, as of June 30, 2020, the Company holds a warrant to purchase 25,577 shares of TEC common stock, adjusted for the 1-for-12,000 reverse stock split and the 2,000-for-1 forward stock split, at an exercise price of $2.4436 per share, as adjusted. This warrant became exercisable on the date of grant of April 14, 2015 and expires on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant, if not earlier pursuant to the terms of the option.
