Note payable – debt restructure Marin

On February 28, 2018, the Company finalized two settlement agreements with David and Kathy Marin (the “Marin Settlement Agreements”) which have an effective date of December 30, 2017. Pursuant to the first Marin Settlement Agreement (the “Marin Settlement Agreement I”), the Company and the Marins agreed to reduce the Company’s purchase price for all of the capital stock of Bar Code Specialties, Inc., which was acquired by the Company from the Marins in November 2014. In the 2014 acquisition, the Company had issued David Marin a promissory note for $11.0 million of which an aggregate of $10.7 million (the “Owed Amount”) was outstanding as of February 26, 2018 which includes accrued interest earned but not paid. Pursuant to the Marin Settlement Agreement I, the amount of the indebtedness owed to Marin was reduced by $9.5 million bringing the total amount owed to $1.2 million. Section 3.1 of the original note was amended to provide that the Company shall pay the Marins 60 monthly payments of $20 thousand each commencing the earlier of (i) October 26, 2018 and (ii) the date that the Company’s obligation to Scansource, Inc. is satisfied and all amounts currently in default under the credit agreement with Scansource (currently approximately $6.0 Million) is reduced to $2.0 million. As a result, the balance on this loan and related accrued interest at December 31, 2018 were all classified as long term, being due in 2023. As of September 30, 2020, the balance of this loan was $720 thousand.

On February 28, 2018, the Company finalized a settlement agreement with Kurt Thomet whereby the Company settled its indebtedness to Mr. Thomet in the current amount of $5.4 million in full in exchange for 60 monthly payments of $13 thousand each commencing the earlier of (i) October 26, 2018 or (ii) the date when the Company’s obligation under its promissory note with Scansource, Inc. is satisfied and all amounts currently due under the credit agreement with Scansource (currently approximately $6.0 million) is reduced to $2.0 million. In addition, the Company issued Mr. Thomet an aggregate of 25,000 shares of restricted common stock and 1,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock with the same rights and restrictions as described above in the description of the Marin Settlement II Agreement. The effective date of the agreement is December 30, 2017. As of September 30, 2020, the balance of this loan was $450 thousand and is due in 2023.

Note payable – debt restructure Zicman

On February 28, 2018, the Company finalized a settlement agreement with George Zicman whereby the Company settled its indebtedness to Mr. Zicman in the amount of $1.3 million in full in exchange for 60 monthly payments of $3 thousand each commencing the earlier of (i) October 26, 2018 or (ii) the date when the Company’s obligation under its promissory note with Scansource, Inc. is satisfied and all amounts currently due under the credit agreement with Scansource (currently approximately $6.0 million) is reduced to $2.0 million. In addition, the Company issued Mr. Zicman an aggregate of 5,000 shares of common stock and 600,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock with the same rights and restrictions as described above in the description of the Marin Settlement Agreement II. The effective date of the agreement is December 30, 2017. As of September 30, 2020, the balance of this loan was $0.

Each of the Marins, Thomet and Zicman entered into a voting agreement with the Company whereby they agreed to vote any shares of common stock beneficially owned by them as directed by the Company’s CEO and also agreed to a leakout restriction whereby they each agreed not to sell more than 10% of the common stock beneficially owned during any 30-day period.

Convertible note payable - shareholders

On October 5, 2018, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Walefar Investments, Ltd. (“Walefar”) and Campbeltown Consulting, Inc. (“Campbeltown”) (Walefar and Campbeltown are collectively referred to as the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company purchased 100% of the capital stock of HTS Image Processing, Inc. (“HTS”) from the Sellers. As consideration, the Company (i) issued to the Sellers 1,122,648 shares of the Company’s common stock, having a value of $5.3 million based on the average closing price of the common stock for the 20 days’ preceding the agreement (the “Per Share Value”), (ii) cash in the amount of $300 thousand, and (iii) a 12 month convertible promissory note with a principal amount of $700 thousand and an interest rate of six percent (6%) per year (the “Convertible Promissory Note”). The note also provides the Sellers the right to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and unpaid principal amount and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.72. The agreement constitutes a “related party transaction” because of Company director Shai Lustgarten’s position as Chief Executive Officer of HTS and stock ownership in HTS. Additionally, Campbeltown is a “related party” because Carlos Jaime Nissenson, the beneficial owner of Campbeltown, is a consultant to the Company, a principal stockholder of the Company, and father of Company director and CFO Neev Nissenson. Carlos Jaime Nissenson was also a stockholder and director of HTS. Pursuant to the agreement, Shai Lustgarten received 561,324 shares of the Company’s common stock and Carlos Jaime Nissenson received 561,324 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On May 29, 2019, the Company, Campbeltown and Walefar entered into an Amendment to the HTS Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”), which provided for an adjustment to the number of shares of common stock issued to Walefar and Campbeltown in the acquisition of HTS. Pursuant to the Amendment, Campbeltown and Walefar agreed to return for cancelation 277,116 and 277,116 shares of common stock, respectively. This Amendment reduced the amount of shares issued in the acquisition to 568,415 shares from 1,122,648 shares and the amount of share consideration to approximately $2.7 million from $5.3 million. This adjustment was made as a result of a correction in the calculation of working capital and other share give back provisions of the HTS Purchase Agreement. As a result of the Offering (see Note 9), $400 thousand of the notes outstanding were converted to common stock.

On September 30, 2019, and in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Promissory Note, Walefar and Campbeltown each exercised the right to convert $75 thousand in unpaid principal balance into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.72. Accordingly, the Company issued 15,890 shares to each of Walefar and Campbeltown.

As of September 30, 2020, the remaining principal amount of $45 thousand is owed to each Walefar and Campbeltown, respectively, ($90 thousand total) under the Convertible Promissory Note.

Note payable – RWCC

The Company acquired the Note Payable – RWCC (“RWCC Note”) (f.k.a. Certus) with the acquisition of HTS. The RWCC Note was a non-interest-bearing note. The RWCC Note was historically discounted using an effective interest rate of 5.0%. As of September 30, 2020, this note was fully paid. The RWCC Note is classified as a related party note because the Chief Executive Officer of RWCC is the son of a significant shareholder of the Company and a sibling of
