| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously disclosed in Monaker Group, Inc.’s (“Monaker’s”, the “Company’s” and “our”) filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, we held various outstanding convertible promissory notes representing amounts owed to us by Bettwork Industries, Inc., whose common stock is traded on the OTC Pink market under the symbol “BETW” (“Bettwork”), which totaled $5.25 million in principal amount due and payable.
Specifically, Bettwork owed the Company:
○
$750,000 representing amounts we were owed under a $750,000 promissory note originally provided to us by Crystal Falls Investments, LLC (“Crystal Falls” and the “$750,000 Note”), which debt was assumed by Bettwork on August 31, 2017, pursuant to an Assignment and Novation Agreement, which amount was due and payable pursuant to its terms on May 15, 2018, and was in default as of July 2, 2018;
○
$2.9 million under a Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “$2.9 Million Secured Note”) entered into on August 31, 2017, in connection with the acquisition by Bettwork of certain technology and assets from the Company. The amount owed under the $2.9 Million Secured Note accrues interest at the rate of (a) six percent per annum until the end of the last day of the month in which the sale occurred; and (b) the greater of (i) six percent per annum and (ii) the prime rate plus 3 3/4% per annum, thereafter through maturity, which maturity date is August 31, 2020, provided that the interest rate increases to twelve percent upon the occurrence of an event of default; and
○
$1.6 million under a Secured Promissory Note (the “$1.6 Million Secured Note” and collectively with the $750,000 Note and $2.9 Million Secured Note, the “Bettworks Notes”), representing amounts Bettwork agreed to pay us in consideration for the acquisition, on May 31, 2018, of the ‘right to own’ 12 parcels of land on Long Caye, Lighthouse Reef, Belize.
All of the Bettwork Notes described above were convertible into shares of Bettwork’s common stock, at our option at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”), unless, prior to the notes being paid in full, Bettwork completed a capital raise or acquisition and issued common stock or common stock equivalents (including, but not limited to convertible securities) with a price per share (as determined in our reasonable discretion) less than the Conversion Price then in effect (each a “Transaction”), at which time the Conversion Price will be adjusted to match such lower pricing structure associated with the Transaction.
On July 3, 2018, and effective as of July 2, 2018, the Company and Bettwork entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement (the “Debt Conversion Agreement”), whereby we converted the $5,250,000 of principal amount owed under the Bettwork Notes into 7,000,000 shares of common stock of Bettwork at $0.75 per share.
The Debt Conversion Agreement provided that the Bettwork Shares were issued in exchange for the Bettwork Notes and in consideration for the full retirement and payment in full thereof, with the Company forgiving any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and not in connection with the conversion of the Bettwork Notes pursuant to their terms.
The description of the Debt Conversion Agreement above is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Debt Conversion Agreement filed wherewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.

As described in Item 1.01 above, which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.01 in its entirety, effective on July 2, 2018, we and Bettwork entered into the Debt Conversion Agreement, whereby we converted $5.25 million of principal amount of outstanding promissory notes owed to us by Bettwork into 7,000,000 shares of Bettwork’s common stock.

WHEREAS, the $2,900,000 Note includes a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and the $1,600,000 Note includes a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation (collectively, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitations”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the $1,600,000 Note, the Notes are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, at the option of the Creditor at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”), unless, prior to the Notes being paid in full, the Company completes a capital raise or acquisition and issues common stock or common stock equivalents (including, but not limited to convertible securities) with a price per share less than the Conversion Price then in effect (each a “Transaction”), at which time the Conversion Price is to be adjusted to match such lower pricing structure associated with the Transaction;
WHEREAS, the Company has recently completed a Transaction with a price per share of $0.75;
| Debt Conversion Agreement Monaker and Bettwork Page 1 of 6 |
WHEREAS, separate from the conversion rights set forth in the Notes and in consideration for the cancellation and termination of the Notes, the Company and the Creditor desire to convert the principal amount of the Notes, totaling an aggregate of $5,250,000 (the “Amount Owed”) into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.75 per share (the “Agreed Conversion Price” and the “Conversion”) and the Company desires for the Creditors to complete the Conversion; and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Creditors desire to set forth in writing herein the terms and conditions of their agreement and understanding concerning Conversion.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, agreements, and considerations herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Parties, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Consideration.
(a) Effective on the Effective Date, and in consideration and in full satisfaction of the forgiveness of the entire Amount Owed to Creditor and in consideration for the termination and cancellation of the Notes, the Company agrees to convert the Amount Due under the Notes into an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at the Agreed Conversion Price (i.e., one share of common stock for every $0.75 of the Amount Owed converted into shares of common stock) (the “Shares”).
(b) The Shares shall not be certificated and instead shall be held in book-entry, non-certificated form by the Company, unless the Creditor requests such Shares be issued in certificate form, or the Company’s transfer agent requires such shares be issued in certificate form, at which time such Shares shall be issued in certificate form and delivered to the Creditor within three (3) business days of the applicable date of notice thereof.
(c) Creditor represents that it is the sole owner of the Amount Owed and has good and marketable title to the Amount Owed, free and clear of any liens, claims, charges, options, rights of tenants or other encumbrances. Creditor has sole managerial and dispositive authority with respect to the Amount Owed.
(d) In connection with the Conversion, the Creditor agrees to waive, release and forgive, any and all interest owed under the Notes through the Effective Date.
(e) The Parties agree and confirm that the Beneficial Ownership Limitations shall not apply to the Conversion, as the Shares are being issued in complete exchange for, and in full repayment of, the Notes, and such Shares are not being issued upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to their terms.
