Convertible Debt

 

On various dates during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company issued convertible notes for a total of $3,921,617 which contained varied terms and conditions including the following: a) 1 to 12-month maturity date; b) interest rates of 12% to 15%; c) convertible to the Company’s common stock at issuance at a fixed rate of $2.50 or at variable conversion rates upon the Company’s up-listing to NASDAQ or NYSE or an event of default. These notes were issued with either shares of common stock or warrants to purchase common stock that were fair valued at issuance date. The aggregate relative fair value of the shares of common stock and warrants issued with the notes of $606,169 was recorded as a debt discount to be amortized over the term of the notes. We also evaluated the convertible notes for derivative liability treatment and determined that the notes did not qualify for derivative accounting treatment at September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2022, one lender holds approximately $9.4 million of the $17.1 million convertible notes outstanding.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized amortization expense related to the debt discounts indicated above of $1,728,846. The unamortized debt discounts as of September 30, 2022 related to the convertible debentures and other convertible notes amounted to $434,313.

 

Standstill and Forbearance Agreements

 

In recent years, the Company entered into Standstill and Forbearance Agreements with lenders who hold variable-rate convertible notes. Pursuant to these agreements the lenders agreed to not convert any portion of their notes into shares of common stock at a variable rate. The Company and two lenders ($673,528 outstanding principal at September 30, 2022) are negotiating in good faith to resolve the remaining loans.

 

In connection to these agreements, the Company incurred interest, penalties, and fees of approximately $202,058 and $606,158, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

 

Convertible Loan Modifications and Extinguishments

 

We refinanced certain convertible loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 at substantially the same terms for extensions ranging over a period of one to twelve months. We amortized any remaining unamortized debt discount as of the modification date over the remaining, extended term of the new loans. We applied ASC 470 of modification accounting to the debt instruments which were modified during the quarter or those settled with new notes issued concurrently for the same amounts but different maturity dates. The terms such as the interest rate, prepayment penalties, and default rates will be the same over the new extensions. According to ASC 470, an exchange of debt instruments between or a modification of a debt instrument by a debtor and a creditor in a nontroubled debt situation is deemed to have been accomplished with debt instruments that are substantially different if the present value of the cash flows under the terms of the new debt instrument is at least 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original instrument. If the terms of a debt instrument are changed or modified and the cash flow effect on a present value basis is less than 10 percent, the debt instruments are not considered to be substantially different and will be accounted for as modifications.

 

The cash flows of new debt exceeded 10% of the remaining cash flows of the original debt on several loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 we recorded losses on extinguishment of liabilities of approximately $1,809,249 by calculating the difference of the fair value of the new debt and the carrying value of the old debt.

In no circumstance will Guarantor be asked or obligated to repay or be liable for the payment of any amount paid by Buyer to Seller, including, but not limited to, the Purchase Price.

We have accounted for the Merchant Agreements as loans under ASC 860 because while we provided rights to current and future receipts, we still had control over the receipts. The difference between the Purchase Amount and the Purchase Price is imputed interest that is recorded as interest expense when paid each day.
