For each of the Notes, the Company is entitled to a one-year extension. The outstanding principal amounts of the notes are convertible at any time at the option of the holders into common stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share. Each of the noteholders may convert part of the principal outstanding in increments of $10,000 or multiples of $10,000 at any time. Accrued interest, if any, will be forfeited on any principal amount being converted.

 

The conversion feature is dual indexed to the Company’s stock, and is considered an embedded derivative which needs to be bifurcated from the host instrument in accordance with ASC 815.

 

ASC 815-15-25 provides that if an entity has a hybrid financial instrument that would require bifurcation of embedded derivatives under ASC 815, the entity may irrevocably elect to initially and subsequently measure a hybrid financial instrument in its entirety at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The fair value election can be made instrument by instrument and shall be supported by concurrent documentation or a preexisting documented policy for automatic election.

 

The Company elected to measure the Notes in their entirety at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as non-operating income or loss at each balance sheet date in accordance with ASC 815-15-25.

 

During the three months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, interest of $nil and $13,500 were incurred on the Notes, respectively.
