On January 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with AJB Capital Investments, LLC (“Purchaser”) pursuant to which we sold a promissory note in the principal amount of $600,000 (“Promissory Note”) to the Purchaser in a private transaction for a purchase price of $540,000 (giving effect to original issue discount of $60,000). In connection with the sale of the Promissory Note, the Company also paid the Purchaser’s legal fees and due diligence costs of $12,500 and brokerage fees of $9,000 to J.H. Darbie & Co., a registered broker-dealer which were expensed during the year ended October 31, 2022. After payment of the legal fees and brokerage fees, the net proceeds to the Company were $518,500, which were used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

The Promissory Note matured on July 11, 2022, subject to extension at the option of the Company for up to an additional six month period (“Extension”), bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum for the first six months, payable monthly, and 12% per annum thereafter, payable monthly, if extended. On July 11, 2022, the Company exercised its option to extend the Promissory Note an additional six months until January 11, 2023.

 

Under the terms of the Promissory Note, only following an event of default (as defined in the Promissory Note), is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of the “VWAP” (as hereinafter defined) of the common stock during (i) the twenty (20) trading day period preceding the issuance date of the Note; or (ii) the twenty (20) trading day period preceding the date of conversion of the Promissory Note. As used in the Promissory Note, “VWAP” means, for any date, the price of our common stock as determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (i) if the common stock is then listed or quoted on one or more established stock exchanges or national market systems, the daily volume weighted average price of the common stock for such date on the trading market on which the common stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P.; or (ii) if the common stock is regularly quoted on an automated quotation system (including applicable tiers of the over-the-counter market maintained by OTC Market Group, Inc.) or by a recognized securities dealer, the volume weighted average price of the common stock for such date on the applicable OTC Markets Group, Inc. tier or as quoted by such securities dealer. In accordance with the terms of the SPA, as of October 31, 2022, the Company has reserved 36,923,080 shares of its authorized but unissued common stock for issuance in the event the Purchaser exercises its right to convert the Promissory Note following an event of default.

 

The Promissory Note may be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty. The Promissory Note also contains covenants, events of defaults, penalties, default interest and other terms and conditions customary in transactions of this nature.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company paid a commitment fee to the Purchaser in the amount of $123,000 (“Initial Commitment Fee”) in the form of 3,076,923 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Initial Commitment Fee Shares”) valued at $0.04, the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the closing date. In addition, in connection with the Extension, the Company paid an additional commitment fee to the Purchaser in the amount of $33,231 in the form of an additional 1,538,462 shares of its common stock (“Additional Commitment Fee Shares,” and together with the Initial Commitment Fee Shares, collectively, “Commitment Fee Shares”) valued at $0.0216, the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the Extension date.

 

In the event that by the first anniversary of repayment of the Promissory Note by the Company, the Purchaser has not generated the amount of $300,000 from public sales of the Commitment Fee Shares, the Company shall either pay the amount of any such shortfall either (i) by issuing additional shares of our common stock at a price equal to the VWAP for the common stock during the five (5) trading day period prior to such anniversary date; or (ii) in cash, in which case, the Company shall repurchase any unsold Commitment Fee Shares then held by the Purchaser for such shortfall amount (“Commitment Fee Shortfall Obligation”).

 

The offer and sale of the Promissory Note to the Purchaser was made in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), in reliance on exemptions afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

 

Upon the closing, the Company recorded a discount of the Promissory Note in the amount of $260,000, consisting of the original issue discount of $60,000, the fair value of the Initial Commitment Fee Shares of $123,000 and the Commitment Fee Shortfall Obligation of $77,000. These costs were fully amortized over the initial term of the Promissory Note. In connection with the Extension, the Company recorded a discount of the Promissory Note in the amount of $100,000, consisting of the fair value of the Additional Commitment Fee Shares of $33,231 and the Additional Commitment Fee Shortfall Obligation of $66,769. These costs are being amortized over the term of the Extension.

 

For the year ended October 31, 2022, $323,111 of the total discounts recorded in connection with the issuance of the Promissory Note have been amortized.

 

At October 31, 2022, the fair value of the Commitment Fee Shares was approximately $125,538 (valued at $0.0272 the closing price of the common stock of the Company on October 31, 2022). As a result, the Company has recorded an increase in the Commitment Fee Shortfall Obligation in the amount of $30,692 for the year ended October 31, 2022. The total Commitment Fee Shortfall Obligation at October 31, 2022 was $174,462.

 

On January 12, 2023, the Promissory Note was paid in full.
