Monaker Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Summary of Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Operations and Business Organization

 

Monaker Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Monaker”, “we”, “our”, “us”, or “Company”) operate online marketplaces.is an innovative technology company that is building next generation solutions to power the travel, gaming, and cryptocurrency industries. We believe the most promising part of ourthe business plan for our travel operations is the incorporation of Monaker’s proprietary Booking Engine and sizeable alternative lodging rental (ALR) properties into well-established marketplaces (i.e., a business-to-business (B2B) model) thereby facilitating easy access of alternative lodging rentals inventory to contracted global distributor partners.

 

The CompanyCompany’s travel operation serves three major constituents: (1) property managers, (2) travelers, and (3) other travel/lodging distributors. Property managers integrate their detailed property listings into the Monaker Booking Engine with the goal of reaching a broad audience of travelers seeking ALRs, through distribution channels they could not access otherwise.

 

The Company’s planned gaming and cryptocurrency operations are expected to provide fully regulated and licensed (through the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission) digital asset financing, and investment services for digital assets. This innovative business model opens the door for new digital currency financing mechanisms and new digital investment products. Monaker has plans to use this innovative technology and digital asset capabilities to create regulated cryptocurrencies designed to allow consumers to invest in unique revenue streams in wholesale travel, real estate homes and hotels, gaming assets and digital advertising – as well as potential token and loyalty program opportunities complementary to Monaker’s planned gaming (in connection with the acquisition of HotPlay Enterprise Limited, assuming such acquisition is completed, as discussed below) and current travel businesses.

Interim Financial Statements

 

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 201929, 2020 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in ourthe Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1)10-K the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 14, 2019.May 29, 2020.

 

The results of operations for the nine months ended November 30, 20192020, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending February 29, 2020.28, 2021.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These differences could have a material effect on the Company’s future results of operations and financial position. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of investments, the carrying amounts of intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, the valuation of stock options, and deferred income taxes.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at November 30, 20192020 and February 28, 2019.29, 2020.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 350-50 “Website Development Costs”. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to dayday-to-day operation of the website are expensed as incurred. All costs associated with the websites are subject to straight-line amortization over a three-year period.

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent toafter establishing technological feasibility of a software application in accordance with guidelines established by “ASC 985-20-25”ASC 985-20-25 Accounting for the Costs of Software to beBe Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, requiring certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized based on the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product.

Business Combination

The acquisition of Longroot, Inc. was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). ASC 805 requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values, as determined in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, as of the closing date. ASC 805 establishes a measurement period to provide the Company with a reasonable amount of time to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure various items in a business combination and cannot extend beyond one year from the acquisition date.

Impairment of Intangible Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 350-30-65 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers important, which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

1. Significant underperformance compared to historical or projected future operating results;

2. Significant changes in the manner or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and

3.
1.Significant underperformance compared to historical or projected future operating results;
2.Significant changes in the manner or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and
3.Significant negative industry or economic trends.

 

When the Company determines that the carrying value of an intangible asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent to the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. The Company incurred amortization expense of $220,353$248,980 and $211,158$220,353 during the nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively.

Convertible Debt Instruments

 

The Company records debt net of debt discount for beneficial conversion features and warrants, on a relative fair value basis. Beneficial conversion features are recorded pursuant to the Beneficial Conversion and Debt Topics of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification. The amounts allocated to warrants and beneficial conversion rights are recorded as debt discount and as additional paid-in-capital. Debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

 

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The reclassification has no effectimpact on the total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’ equity, and net loss for the period.

 

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share isare computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. On February 12, 2018, we effected a 1:2.5 reverse stock-split of all of our outstanding shares of common stock, which has been retroactively reflected herein.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the customer has purchased the product, the occurrence of the earlier of date of travel or the date of cancellation has expired, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Revenue for customer travel packages purchased directly from the Company are recorded gross (the amount paid to the Company by the customer is shown as revenue and the cost of providing the respective travel package is recorded to cost of revenues).

 

We generate our revenues from sales directly to customers as well as through other distribution channels of tours and activities at destinations throughout the world. We also generate revenue from commissions on bookings and sales of ancillary products and services.

 

Payments for tours or activities received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue at the earlier of the date of travel or the last date of cancellation (i.e., the customer’s refund privileges lapse).

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue consists of cost of the tours and activities, commissions and merchant fees charged by credit card processors.

 

Selling and Promotions Expense

 

Selling and promotion expenses consist primarily of advertising and promotional expenses, expenses related to our participation in industry conferences, and public relations expenses.

Warrant Modifications

 

The Company treats a modification of the terms or conditions of an equity award in accordance with ASC Topic 718-20-35-3 by treating the modification as an exchange of the original award for a new award. In substance, the entity repurchases the original instrument by issuing a new instrument of equal or greater value, incurring additional compensation cost for any incremental value. Incremental compensation cost shall be measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified award determined in accordance with the provisions of this Topic over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms are modified, measured based on the share price and other pertinent factors at that date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but providesit does provide guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs).

 

The hierarchy consists of three levels:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities and embedded conversion option liabilities.

 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, notes receivable, net, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, related parties, line of credit and certain other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. It is management’s opinion that the Company has $0 of convertible promissory notes that include embedded conversion options at November 30, 2019 and February 28, 2019.is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Going Concern

 

As of November 30, 2019,2020, and February 28, 2019,29, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $115,105,761$122,955,764 and $106,398,211,$115,852,897, respectively. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

We have very limited financial resources. We currently have a monthly cash requirement of approximately $306,000, exclusive of capital expenditures. $525,000.

We will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the on-going operation and increased market penetration of our products including the development of national advertising relationships.relationships and increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support current operations. We believe that in the aggregate, we could require several millions of dollars to support and expand the marketing and development of our travel products, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from travel products are fully-implementedfully implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. We anticipate obtaining a portion of such funds from HotPlay (defined below), pursuant to the terms of HotPlay Exchange Agreement (defined below), and in the event the HotPlay Exchange Agreement closes. Our failure to close the HotPlay Share Exchange or obtain additional capital to finance our working capital needs on acceptable terms, or at all, will negatively impact our business, financial condition and liquidity. As of November 30, 2019,2020, we had approximately $3,299,346$12,721,330 of current liabilities. We currently do not have limitedthe resources to satisfy these obligations, and our inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern.

 

On July 23, 2020, we entered into (a) a Share Exchange Agreement with HotPlay Enterprise Limited (“HotPlay” and such share exchange agreement, as amended from time to time, the “HotPlay Exchange Agreement”) and the stockholders of HotPlay (the “HotPlay Stockholders” and the transactions contemplated by the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, the “HotPlay Share Exchange”); and (b) a Share Exchange Agreement with certain stockholders holding shares of Axion Ventures, Inc. (“Axion”, the “Axion Stockholders” and as amended and restated from time to time, the “Axion Exchange Agreement” and collectively with the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, the “Exchange Agreements”) and certain debt holders holding debt of Axion (the “Axion Creditors” and the transactions contemplated by the Axion Exchange Agreement, the “Axion Share Exchange”, and together with the HotPlay Share Exchange, the “Share Exchanges”).

Pursuant to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, the HotPlay Stockholders have agreed to exchange 100% of the outstanding capital shares of HotPlay (making HotPlay a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company following the closing of the transactions contemplated therein) in consideration for 67.87% of the Company’s post-closing capitalization (defined below) (the “HotPlay percentage” and the “HotPlay shares”). The Company’s “post-closing capitalization” is equal to the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding following the completion of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement and Axion Preferred Conversion (defined below) and calculated by dividing the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (the “Closing”), by 17.45%, and rounding such number up to the nearest whole share. The post-closing capitalization does not take into account options, warrants or other convertible securities of Monaker outstanding at the Closing.

Pursuant to the Axion Exchange Agreement, which closed on November 16, 2020, (a) the Axion Stockholders (including Cern One Limited (“Cern One”)), exchanged ordinary shares of Axion equal to 33.85% of the outstanding common shares of Axion, in consideration for 10,000,000 shares of newly designated shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), which are automatically convertible into common shares of the Company upon the occurrence of certain events, including the approval of such issuances by the stockholders of the Company, into 14.68% of the post-closing capitalization (the “Axion percentage”), less the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock (defined below) and the exercise of the Creditor Warrants (defined below); and (b) the Axion Creditors exchanged debt of Axion in the aggregate amount of $7,657,024 (the “Axion Debt”), for (i) 3,828,500 shares of newly designated shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), which are automatically convertible into common shares of the Company upon the occurrence of certain events, including the approval of such issuances by the stockholders of the Company, on a one-for-one basis; and (ii) a warrant, granted to Cern One, to purchase 1,914,250 shares of the Company’s common at an exercise price of $2.00 (the “Creditor Warrants”), which is only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events, including the approval of such issuance by the stockholders of the Company. The Creditor Warrants vest on the later of (a) the date the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock convert into common stock and the earlier of (i) the date the Axion Debt is fully repaid by Axion or (ii) the date that the Company obtains 51% or more of the voting control of, and economic rights to, Axion, provided that such vesting date must occur before November 16, 2021, or the Creditor Warrants will terminate. The conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to their terms upon the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange is defined herein as the “Axion Preferred Conversion”.

Also, on November 16, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of Longroot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Longroot”), which in turn owned 57% of Longroot Limited, a Cayman Islands company (“Longroot Cayman”). Longroot Cayman owned 49% of the outstanding shares (100% of the ordinary shares) of Longroot Holding (Thailand) Company Limited (“Longroot Thailand”), provided that Longroot Cayman controls 90% of Longroot Thailand’s voting shares and therefore effectively controls Longroot Thailand.

The acquisition was made pursuant to the November 2, 2020 Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) entered into with Dr. Jason Morton (“Morton”), and for certain limited purposes set forth therein, Longroot. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company purchased, 100% of Longroot, in consideration for (a) $1,700,000 in cash; and (b) 200,000 shares of restricted common stock. A total of $100,000 was paid as a non-refundable deposit towards the purchase of Longroot on October 15, 2020, and a total of $700,000 was paid at the closing on November 16, 2020, along with the issuance of the shares. Additionally, prior to the closing, the Company advanced a separate $400,000 to Longroot which was used for working capital prior to closing which brought the purchase price to a total of $2.2 million. The remaining $900,000 owed to Morton pursuant to the terms of the SPA (the “Remaining Cash Payments”) is payable in three installments of $300,000 each, due on or prior to (i) December 16, 2020 (30 days after the closing), which amount has been paid in full; (ii) March 16, 2021 (120 days after the closing); and (iii) April 15, 2021 (150 days after the closing), of which $150,000 was paid on December 11, 2020. Pursuant to the SPA, Morton has the option to elect to receive any or all the Remaining Cash Payments in shares of common stock of the Company, with such number of shares issuable based on a Company stock price of $3.00 per share.

A total of 22.9% of Longroot Cayman is owned by True Axion Interactive Ltd., of which Axion holds a 60% interest. Monaker currently owns approximately 33.85% of Axion’s shares.

Longroot Thailand is an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) portal operator authorized and regulated under Thai Digital Asset Business Law and licensed by the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission. Longroot Thailand provides fully regulated and licensed digital assets financing, and investment services for digital assets. Monaker, as a majority stakeholder in Longroot Thailand, is planning to use the technology and digital asset capabilities to create cryptocurrencies regulated under Thai law, designed to allow consumers to invest in unique revenue streams in wholesale travel, real estate homes and hotels, gaming assets and digital advertising – as well as potential token and loyalty program opportunities complementary to Monaker’s gaming and travel businesses.

Our current plan is to close the transactions contemplated by the HotPlay Share Exchange. We currently operate in the travel and cryptocurrency industries. Upon the completion of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, the Company plans to transition its operations to those of a travel, cryptocurrency, and an in-game advertising company. During the period until the Closing of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, and in the event the HotPlay Exchange Agreement is not consummated, the Company intends to continue to actively operate in the travel and cryptocurrency industries.

Management’s plans with regard to this going concern are as follows: the Company plans to work towards closing the HotPlay share exchange, which is subject to certain closing conditions and other requirements, will continue to raise funds with third parties by way of public or private offerings (similar to the December 2020 underwritten offering discussed below under “Note 10 - Subsequent Events”) and salesseek to obtain advances from HotPlay pursuant to the HotPlay Convertible Notes, discussed below under “Note 5 – Line of shares of other companies currently owned byCredit and Notes Payable — HotPlay Convertible Notes the Company. Management and members of the Board areCompany is working aggressively to increase the viewership of ourits products by promoting it across other mediums which we anticipatethe Company hopes will result in higher revenues. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate greater revenues. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Although we currently cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our fourth quarter fiscal 2021 financial results relating to our operations, or for the year ended February 28, 2021, we anticipate a significant decrease in year-over-year revenue (similar to the decrease in quarter-over-quarter revenue we experienced during the quarters ended May 31, 2020, August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2020), which decreases we currently expect to continue into fiscal 2022 and possibly beyond. However, the ultimate extent of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on global travel and overall economic activity is unknown and impossible to predict currently.

Separately, our capital requirements may increase in the near term and long-term due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting reduced demand for travel services, the increases in cancellations and re-bookings, and the extent to which such pandemic may further impact the ability of our customers to fulfill their payment obligations.

 

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

 

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations since its contracts generally have an original expected term of one year or less and the Company recognizes revenues at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

 

The Company applies a practical expedient, as permitted within ASC 340, to expense as incurred the incremental costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period of the asset that would have otherwise been recognized is one year or less.

 

Leases

 

The Company utilizes operating leases for its offices. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s contractual obligation to make lease payments under the lease. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-useright-to-use assets, non-current, and operating lease liabilities current and non-current captions in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease right-of-useright-to-use assets and liabilities are recognized on the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease agreements may contain periods of free rent or reduced rent, predetermined fixed increases in the minimum rent and renewal or termination options, all impacting the determination of the lease term and lease payments to be used in calculating the lease liability. Lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company uses the implicit rate in the lease when determinable. As most of the Company’s leases do not have a determinable implicit rate, the Company uses a derived incremental borrowing rate based on borrowing options under its credit agreement. The Company applies a spread over treasury rates for the indicated term of the lease based on the information available on the commencement date of the lease.

 

On October 1, 2019, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Performance Contact Services, an Arizona limited liability company (the “Landlord”) for the lease of a “Call Center” at 6345 South Pecos Road, Suite 206, 207, and 208, Las Vegas, Nevada 89120. The lease has a twelve (12) month term and the average monthly payment, including building operating expenses is $4,800. The “Call Center” is part of the IDS project, as described under “Note 4 – Acquisitions and Dispositions”, which will be used to facilitate phone sales and to support our customers.

Recent Accounting Policies Adopted

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Under the new guidance, an entity is required to perform the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-9 by one year. As a result, the amendments in ASU 2014-9 are effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Additional ASUs have been issued that are part of the overall new revenue guidance, including: ASU No. 2016-8, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” and ASU 2016-12, “Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.

The new revenue recognition standard prescribes a five-step model that focuses on transfer of control and entitlement to payment when determining the amount of revenue to be recognized. The new model requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time for each of these obligations. We adopted the requirements of the new standard effective March 1, 2018 and used the modified retrospective adoption approach.

The impact to our results is not material because the analysis of our contracts under the new revenue recognition standard supports the recognition of revenue at a point in time since control over the asset passes to our customer and there are no more outstanding performance obligations to be satisfied for our travel or tour products or services we distribute to our customers, which is consistent with our current revenue recognition model. In addition, the number of performance obligations under the new standard is not materially different from our contract segments under the existing standard. Lastly, the accounting for the estimate of variable consideration is not materially different compared to our current practice.

Hedge Accounting. In August 2017, the FASB amended the existing accounting guidance for hedge accounting. The amendments require expanded hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and refine the measurement of hedge results to better reflect an entity’s hedging strategies. The new guidance also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how entities assess hedge effectiveness. The new guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The new guidance must be adopted as of March 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to opening retained earnings as of the initial adoption date.

There is no impact to our results as we do not have hedging instruments. We do not have existing hedging relationships nor do we have hedging instruments that have not expired, been sold, terminated or exercised. We have not removed the designation of a hedging relationship.

Leases.In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance related to accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements.arrangements [Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (the Update)]. The new guidance requires entities that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The guidance also requires new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied using a modified retrospective approach. We adopted this new guidance as of March 1, 2019.

The Company elected available practical expedients permittedkey difference between the previous guidance and the Update is the recognition of a right-to-use asset and lease liability on the statement of financial position for those leases previously classified as operating leases under the guidance, which among other items, allows the Company to (i) carry forward its historical lease classification, (ii) not reassess leases for the definition of “lease” under the new standard, (iii) utilize a discount rate asold guidance. Implementation of the effective date, and (iv)Update will primarily impact the statement of financial position. It does not recordinclude provisions that would significantly impact the statements of operations or cash flows.

The Company’s leases that expired or were terminated prior toare classified as operating leases. Therefore, the effective date. Accordingly, the Company recorded operating lease Right-of-Useright-to-use asset and operating lease liability atwere recorded on the adoption date.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.Instruments. In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on the measurement of credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost, which includes accounts receivable, and available-for-sale debt securities. The new guidance replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. We are in the processThe adoption of evaluating thethis guidance did not have a material impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the new standard effective March 1, 2021 and do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (ASU 2020-01), which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for equity method investments in Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

Conversion of $1,600,000 Promissory Note Into 2,133,333 Common Stock Shares of Bettwork Industries Inc.Inc.

On November 21, 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement and an addendum thereto (the “Purchase Addendum”) with A-Tech LLC (“A-Tech”) on behalf of its wholly-owned subsidiary Parula Village Ltd. (“Parula”) whereby we purchased from A-Tech, through Parula, ownership of 12 parcels of land on Long Caye, Lighthouse Reef, Belize (the “Property”) for 240,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at a total of $1,500,000. As part of the same consideration, A-Tech agreed to construct 12 vacation rental residences on the Property within 270 days of closing of the transaction (the “Construction Obligation”); and the agreement provided that if the vacation rental residences were not completed within the 270 days, Monaker would cancel 12,000 shares, valued at $75,000 (of the previously issued 240,000 shares of restricted common stock) for each residence not completed. Additionally, in the event the average closing price of Monaker’s common stock for the 10 trading days prior to the 90th day after the closing of the transaction was less than $6.25 per share, Monaker was required to issue additional shares of restricted common stock such that the value of the shares issued to A-Tech totaled $1.5 million. On February 20, 2018 (the first business day following the 90th day after the closing), Monaker issued an additional 66,632 shares of common stock valued at $4.80 per share, for a total of $319,834, to meet the 90-day look-back provision for a guaranteed purchase price of $1.5 million.

On May 31, 2018, Monaker and Bettwork entered into an agreement whereby Bettwork acquired the ‘right to own’ the Property from the Company in consideration for a Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $1.6 million (the “Secured Note”). The amount owed under the Secured Note accrues interest at a fluctuating interest rate, based on the prime rate, and is due and payable on May 31, 2020. The repayment of the Secured Note is secured by a first priority security interest in the ‘right to own’ and subsequent toafter the exercise thereof, the Property. Bettwork may prepay the Secured Note at any time, subject to its obligation to provide the Company 15 days prior written notice prior to any prepayment. The Secured Note was convertible into shares of Bettwork’s common stock, at our option, subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The conversion price of the Secured Note was $1.00 per share, unless, prior to the Secured Note 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 was to be adjusted to match such lower pricing structure associated with the Transaction (provided such repricing shall continue to apply to subsequent Transactions which occur prior to the Secured Note being paid in full as well). On July 2, 2018, this promissory Notenote was exchanged for 2,133,333 shares of Bettwork’s common stock at $0.75 per share. The outstanding principal balance of the Secured Note as of November 30, 2019 and February 28, 201929, 2020 is $0.

Exponential, Inc (XPO)

On October 23, 2017, we entered into a Platform Purchase Agreement with Exponential, Inc. (“XPO”), which offers a white-label e-commerce platform. Pursuant to the Platform Purchase Agreement, XPO agreed to provide us software development services in connection with the development of an e-commerce platform (the Monaker Booking Engine (MBE)) and related application program interfaces (APIs). In consideration for the services agreed to be rendered by XPO, we issued XPO 200,000 shares of restricted common stock, valued at $1,485,000. Additional consideration for the issuance of the shares included Monaker becoming the exclusive provider of alternative lodging rentals (ALRs) for all travel sales on XPO’s platforms.

The investment in the XPO platform included a platform and API to be delivered to Monaker by November 17, 2017. The 200,000 share purchase price included 140,000 shares for granting Monaker exclusivity for all travel sales on the platforms of all of XPO’s clients. Monaker was granted a 180 day review period for performance of the platform (through May 16, 2018) and if Monaker concluded, at its sole discretion, that the platform did not perform as expected, Monaker could serve notice to cancel travel exclusivity and only maintain exclusivity in the Alternative Lodging Rental (ALR) category by reducing the number of shares due under the Platform Purchase Agreement to 60,000 shares (i.e., cancelling 140,000 of the Shares). The platform, as contracted with XPO, was delivered and it was continuously upgraded by XPO through May 16, 2018. However, the platform did not perform as represented by XPO and Monaker notified XPO of its intent to cancel the travel exclusivity shares (i.e., 140,000 shares) and cancelled those shares on June 29, 2018. The Company maintained exclusivity with XPO and its clients in the ALR category as agreed in the Platform Purchase Agreement in consideration for 60,000 shares, which were not cancelled. Although the 140,000 shares had not been cancelled as of February 28, 2018, due to agreement to cancel the travel exclusivity shares and the failure to connect Monaker’s ALR products to XPO, Monaker reserved 100% of the investment (i.e., 200,000 shares valued at $1,485,000) retroactively to February 28, 2018, and recognized an impairment loss as of February 28, 2018 and reduced the value of the asset to $0 as of November 30, 2019 and February 28, 2019.

On June 28, 2018, XPO’s travel exclusivity shares were cancelled and $1,039,500 of equity was recovered from the cancellation of the 140,000 shares. Since the impairment cannot be restored and the asset has already been reduced to $0, a valuation gain of $1,039,500 was realized for the value recovered in net income as other income, valuation gain, net.

A-Tech LLC and Bettwork Industries Inc. – Purchase of Right to Own and Conversion of Promissory Notes to Shares of Bettwork

Iliad paid consideration of $800,000 for the Iliad Note, which included an original issue discount of $80,000 and reimbursement of Iliad’s transaction expenses of $15,000.

The Iliad Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and matures 12 months after its issuance date (i.e., on April 3, 2021). From time to time, beginning six months after issuance, Iliad may redeem a portion of the Iliad Note, not to exceed an amount of $200,000 per month. In the event we do not pay the amount of any requested redemption within three trading days, an amount equal to 25% of such redemption amount is added to the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note. Under certain circumstances the Company may defer the redemption payments up to three times, for a duration of 30 days each, provided that upon each such deferral the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note is increased by 2%. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Iliad Note, the Company may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note at any time subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 15% of the amount of the outstanding balance to be prepaid.

Each time, if ever, that we fail to comply with the terms of the right of first refusal, the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note increases by 10%. Additionally, upon each major default described in the Iliad Note (i.e., the failure to pay amounts under the Iliad Note when due or to observe any covenant under the Note Purchase Agreement (other than the requirement to make Equity Payments)) the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note automatically increases by 15%, and for each other default, the outstanding balance of the Iliad Note automatically increases by 5%, provided such increase can only occur three times each as to major defaults and minor defaults, and that such aggregate increase cannot exceed 30% of the balance of the Iliad Note immediately prior to the first event of default.

In the event we do not pay the amount of any requested redemption within three trading days, an amount equal to 25% of such redemption amount is added to the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note. Under certain circumstances the Company may defer the redemption payments up to three times, for a duration of 30 days each, provided that upon each such deferral the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note is increased by 2%. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Streeterville Note, the Company may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note at any time subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 10% of the amount of the outstanding balance to be prepaid. For so long as the Streeterville Note remains outstanding, the Company has agreed to pay to Streeterville 20% of the gross proceeds that the Company receives from the sale of any of its common stock or preferred stock, which payments will be applied towards and will reduce the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note, which percentage increases to 30% upon the occurrence of, and continuance of, an event of default under the Streeterville Note (each an “Equity Payment”). Each time that we fail to pay an Equity Payment, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 10%. Additionally, in the event we fail to timely pay any such Equity Payment, Streeterville may seek an injunction which would prevent us from issuing common or preferred stock until or unless we pay such Equity Payment.

Pursuant to the Streeterville Note, we provided Streeterville a right of first refusal to purchase any promissory note, debenture or other debt instrument which we propose to sell, other than sales to officers or directors of the Company and/or sales to the government. Each time, if ever, that we provide Streeterville such right, and Streeterville does not exercise such right to provide such funding, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note increases by 3%. Each time, if ever, that we fail to comply with the terms of the right of first refusal, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note increases by 10%. Additionally, upon each major default described in the Streeterville Note (i.e., the failure to pay amounts under the Streeterville Note when due or to observe any covenant under the Note Purchase Agreement (other than the requirement to make Equity Payments)) the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 15%, and for each other default, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 5%, provided such increase can only occur three times each as to major defaults and minor defaults, and that such aggregate increase cannot exceed 30% of the balance of the Streeterville Note immediately prior to the first event of default.

In connection with the Note Purchase Agreement and the Streeterville Note, the Company has entered into a Security Agreement with Streeterville (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the obligations of the Company are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, subject to a priority lien and security interest in the collateral of the Company.

The Investor Note, in the principal amount of $1,500,000, evidences the amount payable by Streeterville to the Company as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Streeterville Note. The Investor Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in full on November 23, 2021, subject to a 30-day extension exercisable at the option of Streeterville and may be prepaid at any time. Streeterville may, in its sole discretion, designate collateral as security for its obligations under the Investor Note, provided that currently there is no collateral evidencing the repayment of such note. In the event (i) of the occurrence of any event of default under the Streeterville Note, (ii) of a breach of any material term, condition, representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Company under any agreement entered into with Streeterville along with the Note Purchase Agreement, or (iii) if the Company sells, transfers, assigns, pledges or hypothecates the Investor Note, or attempts to do any of the foregoing, Streeterville is entitled to deduct and offset any amount owing by the Company under the Streeterville Note from any amount owed by Streeterville under the Investor Note (provided that such amount is automatically offset if Streeterville has not exercised its offset right within 30 days prior to the maturity date of the Investor Note). The Investor Note includes customary events of default, subject to cure rights where applicable. The amount of the Investor Note has been offset against the amount of the Streeterville Note in the balance sheet as of November 30, 2020, as both notes have substantially similar terms, and the Investor Note was provided in consideration for the acquisition of a portion of the Streeterville Note.

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) Loan

On May 8, 2020, the Company obtained a $176,534 loan (the “Loan”) from The Commercial Bank (the “Lender”), pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the “CARES Act”.

The PPP Note may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Proceeds from the Loan will be available to the Company to fund designated expenses, including certain payroll costs, rent, utilities and other permitted expenses, in accordance with the PPP. Under the terms of the PPP, up to the entire amount of principal and accrued interest may be forgiven to the extent Loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act and applicable implementing guidance issued by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the PPP (including that at least 60% of such Loan funds are used for payroll). The Company intends to use the entire Loan amount for designated qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the respective Loan in accordance with the terms of the PPP. No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the Loan in whole or in part. With respect to any portion of the Loan that is not forgiven, the Loan will be subject to customary provisions for a loan of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of the provisions of the PPP Note and cross-defaults.

On August 14, 2020, the Company submitted the loan forgiveness application to Commercial Bank for the entire amount of $176,534. The accrued interest was $561 as of August 31, 2020.

The advances were evidenced by convertible promissory notes (“HotPlay Convertible Notes”) in the amount of each advance, and an effective date as of the date of each advance. The HotPlay Convertible Notes totaled $2.5 million as of November 30, 2020.

The advances, and the entry into the HotPlay Convertible Notes, were required conditions to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which HotPlay was required to loan us $1,000,000 on or before August 31, 2020 (provided that Monaker waived such delay in providing such initial $1,000,000 of HotPlay advances) and is required to loan us an additional $1,000,000 (each a “Subsequent Loan”, and such loans, the “HotPlay Loans”), on September 30, 2020, and on the 15th day of each calendar month thereafter (each a “Required Lending Date”), through the date of closing of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (provided that Monaker has waived any delay in timely providing such amounts to date).

The HotPlay Notes are automatically forgiven by HotPlay in the event the HotPlay Exchange Agreement is terminated (a) by written agreement of the parties thereto; (b) by HotPlay (and its stockholders) or the Company, if the closing has not occurred on or before the required date set forth in the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (currently February 28, 2021), unless the failure of the closing to have occurred is attributable to a failure on the part of the terminating party; (c) by the Company, if there is a material adverse effect on HotPlay or any schedule delivered by HotPlay is found to be materially misleading or conflict with any prior written or oral statement delivered to the Company; or (d) by the Company, if any representations or warranties made by HotPlay or its stockholders in the HotPlay Exchange Agreement are found to be materially inaccurate or any covenants are breached.

17

Alternately, if the HotPlay Exchange Agreement is terminated (a) by HotPlay or its principal stockholder (as applicable) because a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction issues a final non-appealable order, or takes any other action having the effect of, permanently restraining, enjoining, or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (a “Government Action”); (b) by HotPlay if any event occurs that makes it impossible to satisfy a condition precedent to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement; (c) by HotPlay if there is a material adverse effect on the Company; or (d) by HotPlay if any representations or warranties made by the Company in the HotPlay Exchange Agreement are found to be materially inaccurate or any covenant of the Company is breached; or by the Company in connection with a Government Action or any event occurs that makes it impossible to satisfy a condition precedent to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (except as discussed above in connection with events which result in the automatic forgiveness of the HotPlay Notes), then the outstanding principal amount of the HotPlay Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, automatically convert into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share.

In the event the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange close, it is anticipated that the HotPlay Notes will be forgiven as intracompany loans.

If the Company fails to deliver the shares due upon a conversion within five business days, or the Company enters into a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, then HotPlay can declare the entire amount of the notes due and payable (provided the notes are automatically due upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy events), and such note will accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full.

Common Stock Warrants

 

On July 31, 2017, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 613,000 shares of common stock in connection with a private placement offering of 613,000 shares of common stock and warrants. The warrants were exercisable immediately at $5.25 per share and expire on July 30, 2022. These warrants contain a subsequent equity sale reset “down round”, which provides that if the Company sells or grants any option to purchase any common stock of the Company at any effective price per share less than the exercise price of the warrants, the exercise price shall be reduced to equal that lower exercise price.

 

During January 2018, the Company entered into a First Amendment toTo Warrant (“Amendment”) agreement with Pacific Grove Capital LP (“Pacific Grove”) which amended the warrants then held by Pacific Grove (acquired on July 31, 2017). This amendment led to a reduction in the exercise price of the warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock held by Pacific Grove from $5.25 per share to $2.625 per share. This exercise price reduction was to incentivize the exercise of these warrants and to raise cash. The securities held by Pacific Grove were beneficially owned by Robert J. Mendola, who became a member of the Board of Directors in August 2019.

 

Additionally, as a result of the reduction in the exercise price of the Pacific Grove warrants which was agreed to pursuant to the Amendment, the anti-dilution provisions of the purchase agreement entered into with the purchasers pursuant to the July 31, 2017 purchases waswere triggered. Specifically, because the Company issued shares of common stock below (a) the $5.00 price per share of the securities sold pursuant to the purchase agreement, the purchasers were due an additional 14,458 shares of the Company’s common stock; and (b) the $5.25 exercise price of the warrants sold pursuant to the purchase agreement (and the warrants granted to the placement agent), automatically decreased to $5.125 per share.

On January 29, 2018, the Company entered into a First Amendment To Warrant agreement with The Stadlin Trust dated 5/25/01 (“Stadlin”) which amended the Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement provided to Stadlin in connection with the closing of the July 31, 2017 offering, whereby Stadlin acquired warrants to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Through January 29, 2018, Stadlin earned additional warrants to purchase 9,800 shares of the Company’s common as partial liquidated damages for delays in obtaining an uplisting to the NASDAQ Capital Market, which uplisting was required pursuant to the purchase agreement, to have occurred on or before December 9, 2017; these additional warrants (on substantially similar terms as the warrants granted in connection with the offering) are equal to Stadlin’s pro rata share of 1% of the warrants sold pursuant to the purchase agreement for each day that the Company failed to obtain the NASDAQ listing. Total warrants held by Stadlin as of January 29, 2018 were 29,800. The Company desired to incentivize Stadlin to exercise the warrants by reducing the exercise price of the warrants from $5.125 per share to $2.625 per share, provided that Stadlin agreed to immediately exercise such 29,800 warrants for $78,225 in cash. Pursuant to the amendment, the exercise price of the warrants was reduced as discussed above and Stadlin exercised the warrants in cash.

 

Additionally, as a result of the reduction in the exercise price of the Stadlin warrants which was agreed to pursuant to the amendment, the anti-dilution provisions of the purchase agreement and the purchasers’ warrants granted in connection therewith was triggered. Specifically, because the Company issued shares of common stock below (a) the $5.00 price per share of the securities sold pursuant to the purchase agreement, the purchasers were due an additional 1,220 shares of the Company’s common stock; and (b) the $5.125 exercise price of the warrants sold pursuant to the purchase agreement (and the warrants granted to the placement agent), the exercise price of such warrants remained unchanged at $5.125 per share.

 

At first, the warrants were accounted for as part of Company equity since the warrants were considered indexed to the Company’s own stock. However, under ASC 815, the “down round” protection can sever the indexing to the Company’s own stock and the warrants could be accounted for as derivative liabilities at the time the reset was triggered, which is how the Company accounted for such warrants, and the change in fair value resulting from the reset of $26,060 was recognized as change in fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815):

I.         Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. ASU 2017-11 intends to reduce the complexity associated with the issuer’s accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Specifically, the Board determined that a down round feature (as defined) would no longer cause a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or an embedded conversion option) to be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current earnings and is effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted the new standard during 2017, preventing the need to account for the Company to account for the outstanding warrants that contain down round features as derivative instruments.

As a result of the Company’s April 2019 underwritten offering, as discussed above, the exercise price of the then outstanding warrants to purchase 724,000 shares of common stock granted as part of the Company’s October 2, 2018 registered offering werewas automatically adjusted from $2.85 per share to $2.00 per share.

On November 16, 2020, in connection with the closing of the Axion Share Exchange Agreement, the Company granted Cern One, a warrant to purchase 1,914,250 shares of the Company’s common at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (the “Creditor Warrants”), which is only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events, including the approval of such issuance by the stockholders of the Company. The Creditor Warrants vest on the later of (a) the date the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock convert into common stock and the earlier of (i) the date the Axion Debt is fully repaid by Axion or (ii) the date that the Company obtains 51% or more of the voting control of, and economic rights to, Axion (the “Vesting Date”), provided that such Vesting Date must occur before November 16, 2021, or the Creditor Warrants will terminate. The Creditor Warrants have a term ending on the second anniversary of the Vesting Date.

On March 5, 2019, a First Amendment to Warrant agreement (the “Amendment”) between the Company and the Donald P. Monaco Insurance Trust (the “Trust”), which is beneficially owned by Donald P. Monaco, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, became effective and binding on the parties. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company and the Trust agreed to reduce the exercise price of warrants to purchase 35,750 shares of common stock of the Company which were acquired by the Trust pursuant to the Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement entered into between the Company and the purchasers named therein (including the Trust) dated July 31, 2017 and in consideration for liquidated damages due pursuant to the terms thereof, from $5.23 per share to $2.85 per share, in consideration for the Trust’s immediate exercise of such warrants for cash.

Total consideration received by the Company from the exercise of the 35,750 warrants exercised by the Trust was $101,888.

On April 25, 2019, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with several Underwriters named in the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriters”) for whom Roth Capital Partners, LLC acted as representative, relating to the public offering, issuance and sale by the Company of 870,000 shares of common stock, at an offering price to the public of $2.00 per share. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 130,500 shares of common stock which was exercised by the Underwriters. The offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-224309), that was filed with the SEC, including the related prospectus, dated April 17, 2018, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated April 25, 2019.

The Underwriters sold 75,000 shares of common stock to an entity controlled by Donald P. Monaco, a director and chairman of the Company’s board, 100,000 shares of common stock to Simon Orange, a member of the Company’s board, and 25,000 shares of common stock, to William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer and member of the Company’s board, at the $2.00 per share public offering price.

In total the Company sold 1,000,500 shares of common stock in the offering and net proceeds disbursed to the Company from the offering were $1.785 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses of the underwriters in the offering (the “Underwritten Offering”).

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we agreed, subject to certain exceptions, until July 24, 2019 (a period of 90 days after the date of the offering), not to offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of our equity or equity equivalent securities.

As a result of the offering, the exercise price of the warrants to purchase 724,000 shares of common stock granted as part of the Company’s October 2, 2018 registered offering were automatically adjusted from $2.85 per share to $2.00 per share.

We did not renew this lease.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance related to accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements. The new guidance requires entities that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The guidance also requires new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied using a modified retrospective approach. We adopted this guidance as of March 1, 2019. The Company elected available practical expedients permitted under the guidance, which among other items, allow the Company to (i) carry forward its historical lease classification, (ii) not reassess leasesrent for the definition of “lease” under the new standard, (iii) utilize a discount rate as of the effective date,quarters ended November 30, 2020, August 31, 2020 and (iv) not record leases that expired or were terminated prior to the effective date. Accordingly, theMay 31, 2020 was $16,855, $33,628 and $19,447, respectively.

Nasdaq Letter

On February 11, 2019, the Company received a letter (the “Letter”) from The Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, as a result of the resignation from the Board of Directors of the Company, on January 23, 2019, of Mr. Robert J. Post, the Company no longer complied with Nasdaq’s independent director requirement as set forth in Listing Rule 5605 which requires, among other things, that a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors be comprised of “independent directors” as defined in Rule 5605, and because as a result of Mr. Post’s resignation, the Company’s Board of Directors no longer consisted of majority independent members, the Company was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5605.

Notwithstanding such non-compliance, Nasdaq provided the Company a cure period in order to regain compliance as follows:

until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting (which took place on August 15, 2019) or January 23, 2020; or
if the next annual shareholders’ meeting is held before July 22, 2019, then the Company was required to evidence compliance no later than July 22, 2019.

On August 15, 2019, Rupert Duchesne and Jamie Mendola were elected as directors of the Company at the annual meeting of Stockholders.

On August 21, 2019, Nasdaq notified the Company that (i) as a result of the appointments of Messrs. Duchesne and Mendola to the Company’s Board of Directors; and (ii) because the Company held a combined 2019/2020 annual meeting of shareholders on August 15, 2019, the Company was back in full compliance with all of Nasdaq’s rules for continued listing.

Legal Matters

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving breach of contract claims, intellectual property, employment issues, and other related claims and vendor matters. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.

 

On March 28, 2016, the Company was presented with a Demand for Arbitration, pursuant to Rule 4(a) of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Rules of Arbitration, whereby Acknew Investments, Inc. and Vice Regal Developments Inc. (Claimants) are arguing that $700,000 is due to them, even though they have already been paid said amounts through preferred shares that were issued as a guarantee and which Claimants converted into shares of common stock. In connection with the purchase of the stock of the entity that eventually became RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (and subsequently Verus International, Inc.), the Company issued 380,000 shares of Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares with a value of $1,900,000, which was considered the $1,200,000 value of the stock portion of the purchase price and was also meant to guaranty the payment of the balance of $700,000. The Company contends that the obligation to pay the $700,000 was extinguished with the conversion of the Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares into shares of common stock. The date for arbitration has not been set and the Company will vehemently defend its position.

 

The Company is unable to determine the estimate of the probable or reasonable possible loss or range of losses arising from the above legal proceeding;proceedings; however, the Company denies the plaintiffs’ claims and intends to vehemently defend itself against the allegations. As of November 30, 2019,2020, there has been no further update on the arbitration.

On April 27, 2020, the Company has not received any correspondence regarding this proceedingfiled a verified complaint for several years.

On March 14, 2014, a lawsuit was filed by Lewis Global Partnersinjunctive relief against IDS, Inc. (“IDS”) and certain other defendants affiliated with IDS in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida Case(Case No. LACE 14-005009 005009 allegingCACE-20-007088). Pursuant to the complaint, the Company alleged causes of action against the defendants, including IDS, based on among other things, fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, aiding and abetting fraud, rescission, and breach of contract, and seeks a temporary and permanent injunction against the defendants, requiring such persons to return the 1,968,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company (the “IDS Shares”) issued to IDS pursuant to the terms of an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement in August 2019 (the “IP Purchase Agreement”) and preventing such persons from selling or transferring any IDS Shares, seeks damages from the defendants, rescission of the IP Purchase Agreement, attorneys fees and other amounts.

The complaint was filed as a result of IDS’s failure to deliver the intellectual property assets which the Company purchased pursuant to the IP Purchase Agreement (the “IP Assets”), certain other actions of IDS and the other defendants which the Company alleges constitutes fraud and to seek to unwind the IP Purchase Agreement and provide damages to the Company due to IDS’s and the other defendants’ breaches thereunder. IDS, through its counsel, sent a letter threatening to bring a shareholders’ derivative action and/or direct suit against the Company. In response to such letter, the Board of Directors empowered the governance committee to conduct an internal investigation into the claims, which investigation is ongoing. Management of the Company believes the claims are meritless.

On April 29, 2020, the Company filed a Verified Motion for Temporary Injunction (the “Injunction Motion”). The Court has not yet scheduled a hearing on the Injunction Motion. A clerk’s default has been entered against one of the defendants, TD Assets Holding, LLC for failing to timely respond to the complaint. By agreement of the parties, the deadline for certain of the defendants, Navarro Hernandez, P.L., and Aaron M. McKown, to respond to the Complaint has been stayed. Defendants IDS, TD Assets Holding, LLC, and Ari Daniels were served, but did not file with the clerk of the court, an answer, affirmative defenses, and counterclaims (the “Answer and Counterclaim”). The Answer and Counterclaim included alleged breach of implied covenantcontract and tort claims against the Company. On September 17, 2020, the Company moved to strike the affirmative defenses and dismiss the counterclaims. On October 5, 2020, defendants IDS, TD Assets Holding, LLC, and Ari Daniels filed an amended Answer and Counterclaim, including alleged breach of good faithcontract, tort, and fair dealing. In particularfederal securities claims against the Company, Mr. William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer and an employee of the Company. The Company intends to vigorously pursue the claims asserted in the complaint and the Company and its officer/employee denies the claims alleged in the Answer and Counterclaim and will vigorously defend such claims.

If the Company does not prevail, it will retain the rights to the IP Assets and may elect to complete the source code that was acquired from IDS to make the source code production ready. If the Company prevails in the lawsuit, alleged that:

In or around July 2, 2012 the plaintiff, Lewis Global Partners, LLC (Lewis Global), entered into a Subscription Agreement with us. The Subscription Agreement provided that Lewis Global would pay $13,500 in services rendered in consideration for 2,700 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Preferred B Shares”). The-Subscription Agreement also provided Conversion Rights to convert each $5.00 Preferred B Share into either shares of the Company or 100 shares of ‘Next 1 Realty’ (our then wholly-owned real estate division, which subsequently became Verus).
On or around June 10, 2013, plaintiff sent a Notice of Conversion to the Company and requested to convert its Preferred B Shares into 270,000 shares of common stock of Verus.
The Company failed to deliver the 270,000 shares of common stock of Verus and because at the time of the Notice of Conversion the common stock in Verus was approximately $2.65 per share, the damages Lewis Global alleged are due total $715,500, provided that the value has depreciated significantly since the time of the Notice of Conversion.

On April 5, 2019, we entered into a Settlement Agreement with Lewis Global relatingthe Company will return the IP Assets to IDS. Therefore, until such time as the dismissal with prejudicedisposition of the lawsuit with Lewis Global. The agreement further providedis determined, the Company will keep the “CIP – IDS Project” assets recorded at a value of $5 Million. Once a determination on the lawsuit has been made, Monaker will take appropriate action regarding the value of these assets. Mediation is scheduled for general releases from each party.February 3rd and a three day hearing is scheduled for the week of February 15th.

 

 2824 

 

On July 27, 2020, the Company entered into a confidential settlement agreement with certain of the defendants in the IDS matter, Navarro Hernandez, P.L., Aaron M. McKown, and Jeffery S. Bailey. The settlement provided for mutual releases of the parties and amounts payable from such parties to the Company in four tranches, in consideration for such settlement, of which all such payments have been timely paid pursuant to the terms of the settlement.

Note 9 – Business Segment Reporting

 

Accounting Standards Codification 280-16 “Segment Reporting, established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements and required selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

 

The Company has one operating segment consisting of various products and services related to its online marketplace of travel and related logistics including destination tours / activities, accommodation rental listings, hotel listings, air and car rental.

Effective on January 12, 2021, Monaker, NextTrip Holdings, LLC, a newly formed Florida limited liability, which is wholly-owned by Monaker (“NextTrip”), HotPlay, and the ChairmanHotPlay Stockholders, entered into a Subsidiary Formation and Funding Agreement (the “Formation and Funding Agreement”). The entry into the Formation and Funding Agreement was a required condition to closing the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, which required that Monaker transfer all of its pre-existing operations into a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary and that Monaker execute an agreement acceptable in form to Monaker and the principal HotPlay Stockholder providing for the operations of NextTrip, including governance and funding requirements associated therewith.

According to the Formation and Funding Agreement, Monaker agreed, prior to the closing date of the HotPlay Share Exchange, to transfer all of the assets, operations, material agreements, employees, and goodwill of Monaker relating to travel operations and business (collectively, the “travel operations”) to NextTrip to insulate the travel operations from the remainder of Monaker’s post-closing operations and allow for Monaker’s pre-closing management to continue to manage the travel operations post-closing pursuant to the terms of the NextTrip operating agreement (defined below). The Formation and Funding Agreement also provides for all North American payroll for Monaker’s travel operations to be paid through, and run by, NextTrip.

The Formation and Funding Agreement also requires Monaker (which at that time will have acquired 100% ownership of HotPlay), to transfer, within five (5) business days of the closing, no less than $5.8 million (less pre-closing advances (defined below)) of the cash held on the books of HotPlay at the time of closing to NextTrip (the “initial advance”). The initial advance will be available for use by NextTrip to retire debt of NextTrip (and/or debt of Monaker), fund operations, further develop the travel operations, and for such other purposes which are approved by the Board of Managers of NextTrip. “Pre-closing advances” means the aggregate amount of the HotPlay loans. The initial advance shall not be a loan, but shall instead be deemed a capital contribution from Monaker to NextTrip.

The Formation and Funding Agreement also requires Monaker to advance an additional $10 million to NextTrip in 2021, pursuant to a mutually agreed-upon schedule of advances (the “subsequent advances”, and together with the initial advance, the “advances”). The subsequent advances shall similarly not be a loan, but shall instead be deemed further capital contributions by Monaker to NextTrip.

Additionally, as a separate requirement from the requirement to make the advances, Monaker is required to continue to fund all NextTrip expenses and operations, for so long as Monaker owns at least 50% of NextTrip, provided that NextTrip stays within 130% of a budget approved by the Board of Managers of NextTrip on an annual (calendar year) basis (the “budget threshold”). In the event NextTrip exceeds the budget threshold in any calendar year, Monaker shall not be required to fund more than the budget threshold in such calendar year, but shall be required to fund the approved budget (in an amount of up to the then applicable budget threshold) in subsequent calendar years. Monaker is also required to promptly pay for, or reimburse NextTrip for (at the option of NextTrip), all legal, audit, insurance, employee, administrative work, and other expenses paid or incurred by NextTrip on behalf of Monaker.

27

Under the Funding and Formation Agreement, NextTrip is required to assume all of the contractual and other obligations and liabilities of Monaker incurred before closing, provided that if such formal assumption is deemed too difficult or impracticable by NextTrip, or such formal assumption would trigger any defaults, required consents, or would be subject to any prerequisites, instead of formally assuming such obligations, NextTrip is required to pay such obligations as they come due and according to their terms (as such may be amended and modified from time to time).

Additionally, if Monaker’s currently pending lawsuit with IDS, Inc. (“IDS”), results in IDS returning the 1,968,000 shares of restricted common stock of Monaker which were originally issued to IDS in August 2019 (the “IDS Shares”), NextTrip shall, with the approval of the Board of Directors of Monaker, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, be able to use, and have issued for its benefit, such number of shares of Monaker for acquisitions and strategic transactions which benefit NextTrip and the Companytravel operations, at the request of the NextTrip Board of Managers.

Finally, the Funding and Formation Agreement provided that NextTrip was required, before the closing, to adopt an operating agreement, which is discussed below, and which was adopted on January 11, 2021.

On January 11, 2021, Monaker, as sole-owner of NextTrip adopted the Operating Agreement of NextTrip (the “Monaco Trust”), in the amount of up to $2,700,000 (the “Revolving Monaco Trust Noteoperating agreement”). The Revolving Monaco Trust Note amendedoperating agreement sets forth the framework for the governance and restated a previous promissory Note entered into byoperation of NextTrip. The operating agreement includes standard representations and warranties of members of NextTrip, customary indemnification and confidentiality obligations, and other customary and standard terms relating to the Company in favorgovernance of the Monaco Trust on February 4, 2019, in the amount of up to $700,000, which had a balance as of December 9, 2019 of $700,000. On the same date, the Company borrowed $200,000 from the Trust under the Revolving Monaco Trust Note. On December 27, 2019, the Company borrowed an additional $300,000 from the Trust under the Revolving Monaco Trust Note.limited liabilities companies.

 

The operating agreement provides for a three-person Board of Managers (“Board of Managers”) who manage NextTrip. Of those three members, two of such members are appointed by William Kerby and Donald P. Monaco, the current Chief Executive Officer and director and Chairman of the board of directors of NextTrip, and one of the members of the Board of Directors is selected by Monaker. Such designees can remove the managers they can appoint, replace such members from time to time in their discretion, and choose which persons fill vacancies created on the Board of Managers (to the extent such vacancies relate to positions they have authority to fill).

The initial members of the Board of Managers of NextTrip are (1) Mr. Kerby, (2) Mr. Monaco, and (3) J. Todd Bonner, a director of HotPlay.

The Board of Managers are tasked with creating a budget for NextTrip from time to time, but at least annually. The Managers have authority, without member approval, to have full, complete, and exclusive authority to manage and control the business, affairs, and properties of NextTrip, which includes, among other things, the ability to operate NextTrip and to enter into agreements and contracts, open and maintain bank accounts, borrow money, take actions in connection with the operation of NextTrip’s business, acquire, sell and operate properties and assets, obtain insurance, incur legal and other fees, employ employees and consultants, make expenditures and undertake other decisions or acts.

Member approval is required however if the Board of Managers desires to take certain material transactions affecting NextTrip, including to (a) amend the operating agreement or the Articles of Organization of NextTrip; (b) change the character of the business of the company; (c) sell all or substantially all of NextTrip’s assets; (d) mortgage or encumber all or substantially all of NextTrip’s assets; (e) undertake any action that would make it impossible for NextTrip to carry on its business, subject to certain limited exceptions; (f) approve any transaction with any affiliate of NextTrip other than arm’s length terms; (g) make any expenditure greater than $50,000, which is not outlined in an approved budget; or (h) confess a judgment against NextTrip.

Mr. Kerby serves as the Chief Executive Officer of NextTrip, and has the authority to appoint employees of NextTrip, and set forth their positions and salaries with NextTrip, and to further provide for the bonuses payable to such persons, provided that such compensation and bonuses do not exceed more than $500,000 in aggregate.

The operating agreement also provides that the Board of Managers, in their sole discretion, subject to applicable law, and advice of counsel, may determine that it is in the best interests of NextTrip to spin-off the membership interests of NextTrip held by Monaker to Monaker’s stockholders (a “spin-off” and a “spin-off determination”). In the event of a spin-off determination, the board of directors of Monaker is required to hold a Special Meeting of the board of directors to discuss such spin-off determination (the “spin-off meeting”), and whether or not such spin-off determination is in the best interests of Monaker and its stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is to be presumed that such spin-off is in the best interests of Monaker and its stockholders. In the event the board of directors determines not to move forward with a spin-off, the Board of Managers may make additional spin-off determinations in the future, subject to the obligation of the board of directors of Monaker to approve such spin-offs. If the board of directors of Monaker determines to move forward with the spin-off, the spin-off will proceed according to applicable law, and if necessary, NextTrip will convert into a corporation prior to, or in connection with, such spin-off. Notwithstanding the rights of the Board of Managers above, neither Monaker, NextTrip, or the Board of Managers have any present intention to affect a spin-off of NextTrip.

Additionally, if the board of directors of Monaker has determined to proceed with a spin-off, the number of authorized membership interests of NextTrip are automatically increased by 33%, after which time the Board of Managers are authorized to issue additional membership interests of NextTrip to managers, officers, management, employees, or consultants of NextTrip, in their sole discretion, in consideration for services rendered or to be rendered.

The operating agreement may only be amended with the majority approval of the Board of Managers and the unanimous approval of the members (i.e., Monaker).

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates past judgments and estimates, including those related to bad debts, accrued liabilities, convertible promissory notes and contingencies. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The accounting policies and related risks described in the Company’sAnnual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) that the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 14, 2019 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of November 30, 2019,2020, there had been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.

Overview

 

Monaker Group, Inc., is an innovative technology company that is building next generation solutions to power the travel, gaming, and its subsidiaries operate online marketplaces.cryptocurrency industries. We believe the most promising part of our business plan is our ability to achieve shareholder value through acquisition and organic growth that presents new opportunities in the incorporation of Monaker’s proprietary white label Booking Engineleisure space and sizeablestrengthens our existing technology platforms.

Through our subsidiaries NextTrip and Maupintour, we provide travel technology solutions with a primary emphasis on alternative lodging rental (ALR) properties. Our proprietary Booking Engine provides travel distributors access to a sizeable inventory of ALR properties into well-established marketplaces (i.e. a business-to-business (B2B) model) thereby facilitating easy accessallowing them to combine ALR with traditional components of alternative lodging rentals inventory to contracted global distributor partners.travel (Air, Car, Cruise, etc.).

 

Our ambition is to become the largest instantly bookable vacation rentalindustry-leading platform in the world, providing, our ALR inventory to large travel distributors via a B2B model.

Additionally, we plan to provide a superior platform to assistassists property managers in booking, and broadening the market for, their homes. The Company serves three major constituents: (1) property managers, (2) travelers, and (3) other travel/lodging distributors. Property managers integrate their detailed property listings into the Monaker Booking Engine with the goal of reaching a broad audience of travelers seeking ALRs, through distribution channels they could not access otherwise.

 

All of Monaker’s ALRs, also commonly referred to as Vacation Rentals are:

 

i)Controlled by Property Management Companies. This is a key point of differentiation for Monaker, as the sole focus of Property Management Companies is to rent and service their properties, unlike an individual home ownershomeowner who often rentrents their propertiesproperty on a casual or part-time basis. We believe working with property managers results in four key benefits:

 

All properties are Instantly Bookable (all Property Management Company inventory is integrated into Monaker’s Booking Engine allowing for instant confirmations);

Higher levels of service for renters (property managers are full-time operators);

Higher Quality Assurance (property managers generally have an incentive to eliminate trouble properties); and

Certified Rentable (most property managers are licensed and bonded requiring them to ensure that properties are “legal to rent” and that allare further responsible for paying required taxes are paid on behalf of their property owners.homeowners.

 

ii)Exclusively Individual Units. Our vacation homes and residential resort units are never shared, nor do we rent rooms in homes like other ALR companies. All ALR inventory is fully furnished, privately owned residential properties, including homes, condominiums, apartments, villas and cabins that property managers rent to the public on a nightly, weekly or monthly basis.

 

WeMonaker has uniquely positioned itself in the ALR sector - which is one of the fastest growth segments within the travel industry. ALR inventory provides a key solution to traditional travel distributors. According to a January 3, 2017 article by Kevin May, the Editor In Chief of PhocusWire, as posted on Tnooz.com (“Private accommodation travel bookings to reach $106 billion by 2018”), it is estimated that roughly 1 out of 5 lodging accommodations in 2018 was an ALR transaction and by most accounts this growth is continuing to accelerate (notwithstanding the current decreases in lodging and travel caused by COVID-19).

Monaker B2B ALR offerings are timely in addressing traditional travel distributors’ needs to protect their client base by allowing them seamless access to ALR products. With the rapid growth of companies like Airbnb, we believe that traditional travel companies are realizing that not having access to this high demand vacation rental inventory means risking the loss of their consumers to other ALR sites. By connecting to Monaker’s B2B model of supplying its significantBooking Engine, travel distributors can sell ALR inventory directly to well-establishedalongside their existing travel products (i.e., Air/Car/Hotel/Cruise/Tour bookings). This, solves a key issue by allowing the customers of traditional travel distributors has three key benefits:to complete their entire vacation package booking on their website versus forcing them to go to an ALR website and potentially lose the entire booking.

 

Monaker avoids the need to market and try and develop its own direct to consumer brand (which can be very expensive). Instead, it is able to supply product into well-established distribution websites that already have significant customer traffic and bookings.

Monaker’s Direct to Consumer Websites

 

Monaker has established a direct-to-consumer presence though a number of websites. While these sites are expected to represent a minor portion of the Company’s revenues moving forward, they do perform two very important functions;

The direct-to-consumer platforms are used for demonstration purposes to show traditional travel companies how ALR products could be integrated into their platforms, and

The sites allow consumers to bundle specialty vacation tours and other offerings with ALR products.

 

These sites include NextTrip.com, providing accessour corporate travel management platform focused on small to airline, car rental, lodgingsmedium-sized business, that provides companies the ability to book travel, manage travel expenses, and activities products, and include our ALR offering which will unite travelers seeking ALRs located in countries around the world and NextTrip.biz (currently under development), which, when fully operational, will provide a complete tracking solution for business travel as well as discounted air, car, hotel and access to ALR products for business travelers.

Another oneprocess employee expense reports. A differentiating feature of our marketplaces,NextTrip.com solution is the ability for corporate travelers to book ALR properties as part of their travel itinerary. Our Maupintour.com marketplace provides conciergeluxury, personalized tours, and activities at destinations, and our other marketplace, EXVG.com, provides our high-endas well as the ability to book ALR offering. Our online marketplaces are discussed in greater detail below.

NextTrip.com, NextTrip.biz, Maupintour.com and EXVG.com provide both ALR products and auxiliary services directly to consumers, so travelers can purchase compete vacation packages. NextTrip.com, NextTrip.biz, Maupintour.com and EXVG.com (along with our contracted distributors) allow travelers to search and compare our large and detailed inventory of listings to find ALRs meeting their needs.properties.

 

Monaker is a technology-driven Travel Company that has identifiedidentifies and sourcedsources ALR productsproperties which it converts intoconsolidates through its Monaker Booking Engine, allowing for instantly bookable products. Thisproperties being packaged alongside other travel products; this is its distinguishing niche. The ALRs are owned and leased by third parties and are available to rent through Monaker’s websites as well as through other distributors. Monaker’s services include critical elements such as technology, an extensive film library, trusted brands and established partnerships that enhance product offerings and reach. We believe that consumers are quickly adopting video for researching and educating themselves prior to purchases, and Monaker has carefully amassed video content, key industry relationships and a prestigious travel brand as cornerstones for the development and deployment of core-technology on both proprietary and partnership platforms.

 

Monaker sells travel services to leisure and corporate customers around the world. Our primary focus is to incorporate ALR options into our current offerings of scheduling, pricing and availability information for booking reservations for airlines, hotels, rental cars, as well as other travel products such as sightseeing tours, shows and event tickets, and theme park passes. The Company sells these travel services both individually and as components of dynamically-assembled packaged travel vacations and trips. In addition, the Company provides content that presents travelers with information about travel destinations, maps and other travel details. In February 2018,December 2020, the Company introduced its new corporate travel platform under the NextTrip brand. This platform continues to be improved with a focus on maximizing the consumer experience and assisting them in the decision and purchasing process.

The platform is a licensed proprietary technology that allows our users to search large travel suppliers of alternative lodging inventories and offers comprehensivecombine ALR with their air and optimal alternatives at the most inexpensive rates to choose from.car booking.

 

In March 2018, the Company introduced Travelmagazine.com, an online travel publication with the aim of giving travelers around the world inspiration for future travel destinations and trips. The publication offers written articles, videos, and podcasts. Moving forward, we hope that Travelmagazine.com will become a central hub of information for travelers who are looking to get detailed information on destinations all around the world. We also plan to move Travelmagazine.com from having content created by a team of staff writers, to a team of worldwide writers who will contribute content for publication in the future, funding permitting. The website is expected to be supported by advertising and allow for promotion of both ALR and Maupintour vacation products.

 

The Company sells its ALR travel servicesinventory through various distribution channels. The primary distribution channel is through its business-to-business (B2B) channel partners which will include sales via (i) other travel companies’ websites and (ii) networks of third-party travel agents. Secondary distribution will occur through the Company’s own websites at NextTrip.com and NextTripVacations.com, through the NextTrip mobile application (“app”) and Nexttrip.biz.Maupintour.com. Additionally, we offerwill be offering high end ALR products along with specialty travel products and services via our websites, EXVG.com and Maupintour, which targetMaupintour.com, targeting high value inventory and assistto customers with complex or high-priced offerings through a toll-free telephone number.high-end travel needs.

ØThe Monaker Booking Engine (MBE) is the Company’s proprietary technology and platform providing access to more than 3.4 million instantly bookable vacation rental homes, villas, chalets, apartments, condos, resort residences, and castles. This ALR product can be accessed by other travel distributors using the Company’s API.

ØNextTrip.com is targeted at small to midsized businesses offering them a customized travel solution for business travel to meetings, conferences, conventions or even vacation travel and gives the primary consumer websites, where travel services and products are booked. The travel services and products include tours, activities/attractions, airlines, hotels, and car rentals and where ALRs can be booked as well. Maupintour complements the Nextrip.com and NextTripVacations.com offerings by providing high-end tour packages and activities/attractions. EXVG.com is a specialized secondary website devoted to those ALRs that cannot be booked on a real-time basis. These ALRs tend to be sourced from owners and managers who have not invested in a reservation management system and/or the owner or manager prefers to personally vet the customer before accepting a booking; typically because the ALR is a high value property. EXVG.com travel services and products only include the aforementioned ALRs as well as tours and activities from Maupintour. NextTrip.biz is targeted at small-to-midsized businesses and offers them a customized travel solution for business travel to meetings, conferences, conventions and even vacation travel.

Cryptocurrency Portal

As discussed in greater detail below under “Recent Events“, on November 16, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of Longroot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Longroot”), which in turn owned 57% of Longroot Limited, a Cayman Islands company (“Longroot Cayman”). Longroot Cayman owned 49% of the outstanding shares (100% of the ordinary shares) of Longroot Holding (Thailand) Company Limited (“Longroot Thailand”), provided that Longroot Cayman controls 90% of Longroot Thailand’s voting shares and therefore effectively controls Longroot Thailand. Longroot has since increased its ownership in Longroot Cayman and currently Longroot owns an approximate 36.75% indirect interest in Longroot Thailand, due to its ownership of 75% of Longroot Cayman, which in turn owns 49% of Longroot Thailand (75% x 49% = 36.75%)), provided that Longroot Cayman controls 90% of Longroot Thailand’s voting shares and therefore effectively controls Longroot Thailand.

Longroot Thailand, provides blockchain technology solutions for the fast-growing cryptocurrency marketplace. Longroot Thailand is an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) portal operator authorized and regulated under the Thai Digital Asset Business Law and licensed by the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission. Longroot Thailand provides fully regulated and licensed digital assets financing, and investment services for digital assets. This innovative business model opens the door for new digital currency financing mechanisms, and new digital investment products. Monaker, with its indirect control over Longroot Thailand, is planning to use Longroot Thailand’s technology and digital asset capabilities to create regulated cryptocurrencies designed to allow consumers to invest in unique revenue streams in wholesale travel, real estate homes and hotels, gaming assets and digital advertising – as well as potential token and loyalty program opportunities complementary to Monaker’s planned gaming (with the acquisition of HotPlay) and current travel businesses.

 

Travel Products and Services

 

Monaker plans to focus on marketing ALR options directly to consumers and to other travel distributors. The Company’s concentration on ALRs is driven by contracts with vacation home (including timeshare) unit owners and managers that make their properties available to consumers and to other travel portals (Distributors) for nightly or extended stays. In addition, we offer travelers activities and tours through our subsidiary, Maupintour. Therefore, not only can we assist a traveler with identifying a destination and the lodging at the destination, but we can provide options of activities while at the destination. We also provide the means for making arrangements for airline tickets, car rentals and lodging (i.e., hotels and ALRs in the near future). In summary, Monaker offers travelers the complete travel package made easy or… or... Travel Made EasyTM.EasyTM.

 

The average ALR search and booking takes a few hours while the average vacation planning process typically involves the consumer visiting up to seven travel websites and spending over 10 hours to book their vacation (according to Susan Ho, Founder of Journy). We believe the NextTrip.com website using the above features should reduce ALR/Vacation planning time from hours to minutes and with the convenience of one site (truly “Travel Made Easy”).

 

Products and Services for Property Owners and Managers

 

Listings.Property owners and managers are able to list a property, with no initial upfront fees, and provide those listings to us at a negotiated preferential rate for traveler bookings generated on our websites. Listings that are ‘real-time online bookable’ properties will be managed by the property owner or manager through an application program interface (API) which will provide real-time updates to each property and immediately notify the property owner or manager of all information regarding bookings, including modifications and cancellations. Information such as content, descriptions and images are provided to us through that API.

 

Listings that are “request-accept”request-accept properties will require communication and approval from the property owner or manager and will not be managed through an API (as discussed above). We will provide a set of tools for the property owner or manager that will enable them to manage an availability calendar, reservations, inquiries and the content of the listing. These tools will allow the property owner or manager to create the listing by uploading photographs, text descriptions or lists of amenities, a map showing the location of the property, and property availability, all of which can be updated throughout the term of the listing. Each listing will provide travelers the ability to use email or other methods to contact property owners and managers.

 

The listings will include tools and services to help property owners and managers run their vacation rental businesses more efficiently: responding to and managing inquiries, preparing and sending rental quotes and payment invoices, allowing travelers to book online and, enter into rental agreements, and processing online payments. Property owners and managers who elect to process online payments will be subject to a transaction fee.

 

Redistribution of Listings.We will make selected, online bookable properties available to online travel agencies as well as channel partners (jointly referred to as “Distributors”). We will be compensated for these services by receiving a commission that is added to the negotiated net rate for each booking.

Mobile Websites and Applications.We provide versions of our websites formatted for web browsers, smart-phones and tablets so that property owners, managers and travelers can access our websites and tools from mobile devices.

 

To date, we have focused on developing our booking engine and establishing relationships with suppliers to increase the size of our instantly bookable inventory. The booking engine has produced little revenue to date because, among other reasons, of the limited number of widely-used distribution partners with which we have been able to establish relationships. We have recently begun contracting with established, widely-used distribution partners to make our inventory available through their distribution channels. The success of the booking engine will depend on users of those distribution partners booking properties supplied by our booking engine, and on our ability to expand the number of such distribution partners that utilize our booking engine.

The Company has completed integrating several distributors for the booking of our ALR products and the Company continues to integrate suppliers of ALR products. We now have more than 2.93.4 million properties listed on theour booking engine.

Sufficiency of Cash Flows

 

Because current cash balances andIn connection with our entry into the HotPlay Exchange Agreement (described below), we have received advances from HotPlay, totaling $3,000,000 as of the date of this filing, pursuant to the terms of that agreement, which are required to continue on a monthly basis through the closing date of the HotPlay Share Exchange. Additionally, as discussed below, we raised funds through an underwritten offering in December 2020, pursuant to which net proceeds to us were approximately $8.1 million. Notwithstanding that funding, in the event the HotPlay Share Exchange does not close on a timely basis, HotPlay ceases making required advances, or the HotPlay Share Exchange is terminated, we anticipate requiring additional funding, because our projected cash generated from operations areis not sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, and if such additional funds are required, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities.facilities or loans. However, we may be unable to raise additional capital upon terms acceptable to us. The sale of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies.technologies, or to increase our ownership of Axion and/or Longroot Cayman. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

Longroot Acquisition

On November 16, 2020, Monaker acquired 100% of Longroot, Inc. (“Longroot”), which in turn owned 57% of Longroot Limited, a Cayman Islands company (“Longroot Cayman”). Longroot Cayman owns 49% of the outstanding shares (100% of the ordinary shares) of Longroot Holding (Thailand) Company Limited (“Longroot Thailand”), provided that Longroot Cayman controls 90% of Longroot Thailand’s voting shares and therefore effectively controls Longroot Thailand.

The acquisition was made pursuant to the November 2, 2020 Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) entered into with Dr. Jason Morton (“Morton”), and for certain limited purposes set forth therein, Longroot. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company purchased, 100% of Longroot, in consideration for (a) $1,700,000 in cash; and (b) 200,000 shares of restricted common stock. A total of $100,000 was paid as a non-refundable deposit towards the purchase of Longroot on October 15, 2020, and a total of $700,000 was paid at the closing on November 16, 2020, along with the issuance of the shares. Additionally, prior to the closing, the Company advanced a separate $400,000 to Longroot which was used for working capital prior to closing which brought the purchase price to a total of $2.2 million. The remaining $900,000 owed to Morton pursuant to the terms of the SPA (the “Remaining Cash Payments”) is payable in three installments of $300,000 each, due on or prior to (i) December 16, 2020 (30 days after the closing), which amount has been paid in full; (ii) March 16, 2021 (120 days after the closing); and (iii) April 15, 2021 (150 days after the closing), of which $150,000 has previously been paid as discussed below. Pursuant to the SPA, Morton has the option to elect to receive any or all of the Remaining Cash Payments in shares of common stock of the Company, with such number of shares issuable based on a $700,000Company stock price of $3.00 per share.

The Company provided Morton demand registration rights in connection with shares of restricted common stock of the Company held by Morton, provided that Morton is not authorized to request more than one demand registration in any 12-month period. In the event such demand registration right is exercised, the Company has 60 days to file a registration statement to register the shares demanded to be registered and is required to use commercially reasonable best efforts thereafter to gain effectiveness of such registration statement, with all fees being paid for by the Company. The demand registration right has no expiration date.

Effective on December 11, 2020, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Morton, which revised the terms of the SPA. Pursuant to the letter agreement, we agreed to accelerate the payment of an aggregate of $150,000 of the $300,000 which was payable pursuant to the terms of the SPA on or prior to April 15, 2021 (which amount was promptly paid), in consideration for Morton agreeing to withdraw a prior demand he had made for the Company to file a registration statement to register the 200,000 shares of common stock previously issue to Morton pursuant to the terms of the SPA. We also agreed to file a registration statement to register the 200,000 shares no later than January 31, 2021.

On January 5, 2021, the Company, through Longroot, subscribed to purchase an additional 100 shares of Longroot Cayman, in consideration for $1 million. The subscription was made pursuant to certain pre-emptive rights set forth in a shareholders’ agreement entered into between the shareholders of Longroot Cayman, and brought Longroot’s ownership of Longroot Cayman up to 75%.

A total of 22.9% of Longroot Cayman is owned by True Axion Interactive Ltd., of which Axion holds a 60% interest. Monaker currently owns approximately 33.85% of Axion’s shares.

Currently Longroot owns an approximate 36.75% indirect interest in Longroot Thailand, due to its ownership of 75% of Longroot Cayman, which in turn owns 49% of Longroot Thailand (75% x 49% = 36.75%)), provided that Longroot Cayman controls 90% of Longroot Thailand’s voting shares and therefore effectively controls Longroot Thailand.

Longroot Thailand is an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) portal operator authorized and regulated under Thai Digital Asset Business Law and licensed by the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission. Longroot Thailand provides fully regulated and licensed digital assets financing, and investment services for digital assets. The Company believes that this innovative new business model opens the door to new financing mechanisms, and new investment products. Monaker, as a majority stakeholder in Longroot Thailand, is planning to use the technology and digital asset capabilities to create cryptocurrencies regulated under Thai law, designed to allow consumers to invest in unique revenue streams in wholesale travel, real estate homes and hotels, gaming assets and digital advertising – as well as potential token and loyalty program opportunities complementary to Monaker’s gaming and travel businesses.

Streeterville Note Purchase

On November 23, 2020, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC, an accredited investor (“Streeterville”), pursuant to which the Company sold Streeterville a Secured Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $5,520,000 (the “Streeterville Note”). Streeterville paid consideration of (a) $3,500,000 in cash; and (b) issued the Company a promissory note in the amount of $1,500,000 (the “Investor Note”), in consideration for the Streeterville Note, which included an original issue discount of $500,000 (the “OID”) and reimbursement of Streeterville’s transaction expenses of $20,000. A total of $350,000 of the OID is fully earned and the remaining $150,000 is not fully earned until the Investor Note is fully-funded by Streeterville.

The Streeterville Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and matures 12 months after its issuance date (i.e., on November 23, 2021). From time to time, beginning six months after issuance, Streeterville may redeem a portion of the Streeterville Note, not to exceed an amount of $875,000 per month if the Investor Note has not been funded by Streeterville, and $1.25 million in the event the Investor Note has been funded in full. In the event we don’t pay the amount of any requested redemption within three trading days, an amount equal to 25% of such redemption amount is added to the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note. Under certain circumstances, the Company may defer the redemption payments up to three times, for 30 days each, provided that upon each such deferral the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note is increased by 2%. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Streeterville Note, the Company may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note at any time subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 10% of the amount of the outstanding balance to be prepaid. For so long as the Streeterville Note remains outstanding, the Company has agreed to pay to Streeterville 20% of the gross proceeds that the Company receives from the sale of any of its common stock or preferred stock, which payments will be applied towards and will reduce the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note, which percentage increases to 30% upon the occurrence of, and continuance of, an event of default under the Streeterville Note (each an “Equity Payment”). Each time that we fail to pay an Equity Payment, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 10%. Additionally, in the event we fail to timely pay any such Equity Payment, Streeterville may seek an injunction which would prevent us from issuing common or preferred stock until or unless we pay such Equity Payment.

The Streeterville Note provides that if any of the following events have not occurred on or before April 30, 2021, the then outstanding balance of the note (including accrued and unpaid interest) increases by an amount equal to 25% of the then-current outstanding balance thereof: (a) the closing has not occurred; (b) during the period beginning on July 21, 2020, and ending on the date that the closing occurs, HotPlay must have raised at least $15,000,000 in cash through equity investments; (c) at the closing, all outstanding debt owed by the Company to HotPlay must have either been forgiven by HotPlay or converted into the Company’s common stock; (d) HotPlay must have become a co-borrower on the Streeterville Note; and (e) the Company must have paid off all outstanding debt obligations to the Monaco Trust and National Bank of Commerce (formerly Republic Bank)(“National Bank”), which amount owed to National Bank has been repaid in full.

37

Pursuant to the Streeterville Note, we provided Streeterville a right of first refusal to purchase any promissory note, debenture, or other debt instruments which we propose to sell, other than sales to officers or directors of the Company and/or sales to the government. Each time, if ever, that we provide Streeterville such right, and Streeterville does not exercise such right to provide such funding, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note increases by 3%, unless the proceeds from such sale(s) are used to repay the Streeterville Note in full. Each time, if ever, that we fail to comply with the terms of the right of first refusal, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note increases by 10%. The Streeterville Note includes offset rights against the Investor Note.

Additionally, upon each major default described in the Streeterville Note (i.e., the failure to pay amounts under the Streeterville Note when due or to observe any covenant under the Note Purchase Agreement (other than the requirement to make Equity Payments)) the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 15%, and for each other default, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note automatically increases by 5%, provided such increase can only occur three times each as to major defaults and minor defaults, and that such aggregate increase cannot exceed 30% of the balance of the Streeterville Note immediately prior to the first event of default.

In connection with the Note Purchase Agreement and the Streeterville Note, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with Streeterville (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the obligations of the Company are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

The Investor Note, in the principal amount of $1,500,000, evidences an amount payable by Streeterville to the Company as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Streeterville Note. The Investor Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in full on November 23, 2021, subject to a 30-day extension exercisable at the option of Streeterville and may be prepaid at any time. Streeterville may, in its sole discretion, designate collateral as security for its obligations under the Investor Note, provided that currently there is no collateral evidencing the repayment of such note. In the event (i) of the occurrence of any event of default under the Streeterville Note, (ii) of a breach of any material term, condition, representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Company under any agreement entered into with Streeterville along with the Note Purchase Agreement, or (iii) if the Company sells, transfers, assigns, pledges or hypothecates the Investor Note, or attempts to do any of the foregoing, Streeterville is entitled to deduct and offset any amount owing by the Company under the Streeterville Note from any amount owed by Streeterville under the Investor Note (provided that such amount is automatically offset if Streeterville has not exercised its offset right within 30 days prior to the maturity date of the Investor Note). The Investor Note includes customary events of default, subject to cure rights where applicable.

The Company engaged Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC to serve as placement agent for the transaction between the Company and Streeterville in exchange for a commission equal to 7% of the gross cash proceeds received from the sale of the Streeterville Note ($245,000).

The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Streeterville Note to repay indebtedness owed to National Bank, which has been repaid in full; and repay amounts owed to the Monaco Trust.

The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and Offering expenses, were approximately $7.1 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to accelerate Longroot Thailand’s internet coin offering platform and our NextTrip platform and call center, to repay outstanding debt obligations (certain of which have already been paid, as discussed above), to pay outstanding obligations owed pursuant to prior acquisition agreements, for the potential acquisition of additional ownership interests in Axion and/or Longroot Cayman (of which additional interests have been purchased as described above), for general corporate purposes and working capital.

According to the Formation and Funding Agreement, Monaker agreed, prior to the closing date of the HotPlay Share Exchange, to transfer all of the assets, operations, material agreements, employees, and goodwill of Monaker relating to travel operations and business (collectively, the “travel operations”) to NextTrip to insulate the travel operations from the remainder of Monaker’s post-closing operations and allow for Monaker’s pre-closing management to continue to manage the travel operations post-closing pursuant to the terms of the NextTrip operating agreement (defined below). The Formation and Funding Agreement also provides for all North American payroll for Monaker’s travel operations to be paid through, and run by, NextTrip.

The Formation and Funding Agreement also requires Monaker (which at that time will have acquired 100% ownership of HotPlay), to transfer, within five (5) business days of the closing, no less than $5.8 million (less pre-closing advances (defined below)) of the cash held on the books of HotPlay at the time of closing to NextTrip (the “initial advance”). The initial advance will be available for use by NextTrip to retire debt of NextTrip (and/or debt of Monaker), fund operations, further develop the travel operations, and for such other purposes which are approved by the Board of Managers of NextTrip. “Pre-closing advances” means the aggregate amount of the HotPlay loans. The initial advance shall not be a loan but shall instead be deemed a capital contribution from Monaker to NextTrip.

The Formation and Funding Agreement also requires Monaker to advance an additional $10 million to NextTrip in 2021, pursuant to a mutually agreed-upon schedule of advances (the “subsequent advances”, and together with the initial advance, the “advances”). The subsequent advances shall similarly not be a loan, but shall instead be deemed further capital contributions by Monaker to NextTrip.

Additionally, as a separate requirement from the requirement to make the advances, Monaker is required to continue to fund all NextTrip expenses and operations, for so long as Monaker owns at least 50% of NextTrip, provided that NextTrip stays within 130% of a budget approved by the Board of Managers of NextTrip on an annual (calendar year) basis (the “budget threshold”). In the event NextTrip exceeds the budget threshold in any calendar year, Monaker shall not be required to fund more than the budget threshold in such calendar year but shall be required to fund the approved budget (in an amount of up to the then applicable budget threshold) in subsequent calendar years. Monaker is also required to promptly pay for or reimburse NextTrip for (at the option of NextTrip), all legal, audit, insurance, employee, administrative work, and other expenses paid or incurred by NextTrip on behalf of Monaker.

Under the Funding and Formation Agreement, NextTrip is required to assume all of the contractual and other obligations and liabilities of Monaker incurred before closing, provided that if such formal assumption is deemed too difficult or impracticable by NextTrip, or such formal assumption would trigger any defaults, required consents, or would be subject to any prerequisites, instead of formally assuming such obligations, NextTrip is required to pay such obligations as they come due and according to their terms (as such may be amended and modified from time to time).

Additionally, if Monaker’s currently pending lawsuit with IDS, Inc. (“IDS”), results in IDS returning the 1,968,000 shares of restricted common stock of Monaker which were originally issued to IDS in August 2019 (the “IDS Shares”), NextTrip shall, with the approval of the Board of Directors of Monaker, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, be able to use, and have issued for its benefit, such number of shares of Monaker for acquisitions and strategic transactions which benefit NextTrip and the travel operations, at the request of the NextTrip Board of Managers.

Finally, the Funding and Formation Agreement provided that NextTrip was required, before the closing, to adopt an operating agreement, which is discussed below, and which was adopted on January 11, 2021.

On January 11, 2021, Monaker, as sole-owner of NextTrip adopted the Operating Agreement of NextTrip (the “operating agreement”). The operating agreement sets forth the framework for the governance and operation of NextTrip. The operating agreement includes standard representations and warranties of members of NextTrip, customary indemnification and confidentiality obligations, and other customary and standard terms relating to the governance of limited liabilities companies.

The operating agreement provides for a three-person Board of Managers (“Board of Managers”) who manage NextTrip. Of those three members, two of such members are appointed by William Kerby and Donald P. Monaco, the current Chief Executive Officer and director and Chairman of the board of directors of NextTrip, and one of the members of the Board of Directors is selected by Monaker. Such designees can remove the managers they can appoint, replace such members from time to time in their discretion, and choose which persons fill vacancies created on the Board of Managers (to the extent such vacancies relate to positions they have authority to fill).

39

The initial members of the Board of Managers of NextTrip are (1) Mr. Kerby, (2) Mr. Monaco, and (3) J. Todd Bonner, a director of HotPlay.

The Board of Managers are tasked with creating a budget for NextTrip from time to time, but at least annually. The Managers have authority, without member approval, to have full, complete, and exclusive authority to manage and control the business, affairs, and properties of NextTrip, which includes, among other things, the ability to operate NextTrip and to enter into agreements and contracts, open and maintain bank accounts, borrow money, take actions in connection with the operation of NextTrip’s business, acquire, sell and operate properties and assets, obtain insurance, incur legal and other fees, employ employees and consultants, make expenditures and undertake other decisions or acts.

Member approval is required however if the Board of Managers desires to take certain material transactions affecting NextTrip, including to (a) amend the operating agreement or the Articles of Organization of NextTrip; (b) change the character of the business of the company; (c) sell all or substantially all of NextTrip’s assets; (d) mortgage or encumber all or substantially all of NextTrip’s assets; (e) undertake any action that would make it impossible for NextTrip to carry on its business, subject to certain limited exceptions; (f) approve any transaction with any affiliate of NextTrip other than arm’s length terms; (g) make any expenditure greater than $50,000, which is not outlined in an approved budget; or (h) confess a judgment against NextTrip.

Mr. Kerby serves as the Chief Executive Officer of NextTrip, and has the authority to appoint employees of NextTrip, and set forth their positions and salaries with NextTrip, and to further provide for the bonuses payable to such persons, provided that such compensation and bonuses do not exceed more than $500,000 in aggregate.

The operating agreement also provides that the Board of Managers, in their sole discretion, subject to applicable law, and advice of counsel, may determine that it is in the best interests of NextTrip to spin-off the membership interests of NextTrip held by Monaker to Monaker’s stockholders (a “spin-off” and a “spin-off determination”). In the event of a spin-off determination, the board of directors of Monaker is required to hold a Special Meeting of the board of directors to discuss such spin-off determination (the “spin-off meeting”), and whether or not such spin-off determination is in the best interests of Monaker and its stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is to be presumed that such spin-off is in the best interests of Monaker and its stockholders. In the event the board of directors determines not to move forward with a spin-off, the Board of Managers may make additional spin-off determinations in the future, subject to the obligation of the board of directors of Monaker to approve such spin-offs. If the board of directors of Monaker determines to move forward with the spin-off, the spin-off will proceed according to applicable law, and if necessary, NextTrip will convert into a corporation prior to, or in connection with, such spin-off. Notwithstanding the rights of the Board of Managers above, neither Monaker, NextTrip, or the Board of Managers have any present intention to affect a spin-off of NextTrip.

Additionally, if the board of directors of Monaker has determined to proceed with a spin-off, the number of authorized membership interests of NextTrip are automatically increased by 33%, after which time the Board of Managers are authorized to issue additional membership interests of NextTrip to managers, officers, management, employees, or consultants of NextTrip, in their sole discretion, in consideration for services rendered or to be rendered.

The operating agreement may only be amended with the majority approval of the Board of Managers and the unanimous approval of the members (i.e., Monaker).

Monaker does not anticipate transferring its operations to NextTrip until right before the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, and currently NextTrip has no assets or operations.

Reinhart Acquisition Agreement

On January 15, 2021, the Company entered into a Founding Investment and Subscription Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Reinhart Interactive TV AG, a company organized in Switzerland (“Reinhart”), and Jan C. Reinhart, the founder of Reinhart (“Founder”). The Investment Agreement contemplates the Company acquiring 51% of the ownership of Reinhart, in consideration for a capital contribution of 10,000,000 Swiss Francs (approximately $11.2 million), of which it is contemplated that one-half (approximately $5.6 million), will be paid in cash and one-half will be paid in restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (valued at approximately $5.6 million). The closing of the transactions contemplated by Investment Agreement is to take place on April 1, 2021, or earlier if the conditions to closing are earlier satisfied. Conditions to closing include the Company paying the required capital contribution, approval of the transaction by the board of directors of the Company and Reinhart, and certain requirements and confirmations required by Swiss law. The Investment Agreement includes customary representations and warranties of the parties. We also agreed to reimburse the Founder’s legal fees of up to 30,000 Swiss Francs (approximately $33,670) in connection with the transaction. Additionally, in the event we fail to close the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement by April 1, 2021, we agreed to pay the Founder 500,000 Swiss Francs (approximately $560,000), as a break-up fee.

Reinhart is in the business of providing a software-based TV and video distribution platform to telecom operators and digital content owners and providing services to telecom operators and digital content owners for user interaction design, as well as software development, deployment and support.

In connection with our entry into the Investment Agreement, we entered into a Founding Shareholders’ Agreement with the Founder setting forth certain rules for the governance and control of Reinhart.

Additional information regarding the Investment Agreement is disclosed below under “Part II – Other Information—Item 5. Other Information”.

Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the infectious disease known as COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” on January 30, 2020 and a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. In March and April, many U.S. states and local jurisdictions began issuing ‘stay-at-home’ orders. For example, the state of Florida, where the Company’s principal business operations are, issued a ‘stay-at-home’ order effective on April 1, 2020, which remained in place, subject to certain exceptions, through June 2020, when the order was gradually lifted. Since that time the U.S., and Florida in particular, have seen rapid increases in the spread of COVID-19. It is currently unclear whether the state of Florida, or the other states, countries or other jurisdictions in which we provide travel services, will issue new or expanded ‘stay-at-home’ orders, or how those orders, or others, may affect our operations and/or results of operations, notwithstanding the recent start of the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines. It is also too early to determine how effective or widespread the available vaccines will be to curb the spread or effects of COVID-19.

The COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental responses thereto, including travel restrictions, ‘stay-at-home’ orders and required social distancing orders, have severely restricted the level of economic activity around the world, and is having an unprecedented effect on the global travel industry. Additionally, the ability to travel has been curtailed through border closures, mandated travel restrictions and limited operations of hotels, airlines, and may be further limited through additional voluntary or mandated closures of travel-related businesses.

The measures implemented to contain the COVID-19 pandemic have had, and are expected to continue to have, a significant negative effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position. In particular, such measures have led to unprecedented levels of cancellations and limited new travel bookings. Moreover, any additional measures or changes in laws or regulations, whether in the United States or other countries, that further impair the ability or desire of individuals to travel, including laws or regulations banning travel, requiring the closure of hotels or other travel-related businesses (such as restaurants) or otherwise restricting travel due to the risk of the spreading of COVID-19, may exacerbate the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position.

40

The duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. The pandemic could continue to impede global economic activity for an extended period of time, even as restrictions are beginning to be lifted in many jurisdictions and vaccines are beginning to be made available, leading to decreased per capita income and disposable income, increased and sustained unemployment or a decline in consumer confidence, all of which could significantly reduce discretionary spending by individuals and businesses on travel and may create a recession in the United States or globally. In turn, that could have a negative impact on demand for our services. We also cannot predict the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our partners and their business and operations or the ways that the pandemic may fundamentally alter the travel industry. The aforementioned circumstances could result in a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, potentially for a prolonged period.

The Company’s liquidity could also be adversely impacted by delays in payments of outstanding accounts receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms and insolvencies. All of that could be exacerbated by the Company’s financial position, and working capital deficit of $534,137 as of November 30, 2020.

It is difficult to estimate COVID-19’s impact on future revenues, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity or financial condition, but such impacts have been and will continue to be significant and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position for the foreseeable future. In the near term, we do expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to negatively affect our operating results and year-over-year results.

Separately, our capital requirements may increase in the near term and long-term due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting reduced demand for travel services, the increases in cancellations and re-bookings, and the extent to which such pandemic may further impact the ability of our customers to fulfill their payment obligations.

As a result of the above, in the event the HotPlay Share Exchange described above do not close timely, if at all, and/or if the HotPlay Share Exchange is terminated, or HotPlay ceases making advances to us as required under the terms of the HotPlay Share Exchange, we may be forced to scale back our operations, adjust our plan of operations, borrow or raise additional funding, which may not be available on favorable terms if at all. In the event we require and are unable to raise additional funding in the future, we may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection.

As of November 30, 2020, most of the Company’s current liabilities consisted of $11,407,482 of notes payable mainly related to the Streeterville Capital, LLC, HotPlay Convertible Notes, Revolving Monaco Trust Note, and Longroot, Inc. agreements as previously discussed. The $9,272,121 of investment in affiliate as of November 30, 2020, represented the value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued in connection with acquisition of a 33.85% interest in Axion, which closed on November 16, 2020, provided that ownership of such Axion shares has not been formally transferred to the Company yet, due to a Cease Trade Order issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission, and as such, the ownership of those shares are not yet included on the balance sheet. The $7,657,024 of other receivable constitutes the debt acquired from the Axion Creditors in connection with the closing of the Axion Share Exchange on November 16, 2020.

As of November 30, 2020, we had $32,399,546 in total assets, $12,721,330 in total liabilities (all of which were current liabilities), negative working capital of $534,137 and a total accumulated deficit of $122,955,764. The negative working capital of $534,137 as of November 30, 2020, represented a decrease in working capital deficit of $1,976,478, compared to $2,510,615 of negative working capital which we had as of February 29, 2020, which decrease was mainly due to the increase were an increase of $350,000 in amounts borrowed fromcurrent assets associated with the Monaco Trust, and an increase of $175,000 in amounts borrowed from directorsacquisition of the Company,$7,657,024 of debt owed by Axion, pursuant to the closing of the Axion Share Exchange and the increase in cash, offset by a decreasethe increase in current liabilities related to borrowings.

Additionally, as described in greater detail above under “Recent Events”, on November 23, 2020, we received $3,255,000 of $110,788net proceeds in proceeds fromconnection with the sale of the Streeterville Note and on December 31, 2020, we closed the underwritten Offering of 3,080,000 shares of our common stock (with an additional 462,000 shares of our common stock being sold on January 13, 2021, in connection with the underwriters exercise of common stock warrants.their overallotment option), for $2.50 per share and raised net proceeds of approximately $8.1 million.

Additional information regarding our notes receivable, investments in equity instruments, acquisitions and dispositions, line of credit and notes payable can be found under “Part I – Financial Statements – Item. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidates Financial Statements“ — “Note 2 – Notes Receivable, Note 3 – Investment in Equity Instruments, “Note 4 – Acquisitions and Dispositions, “Note 5 – Line of Credit and Notes Payable, “Note 6 –Related Party Promissory Notes and Transactions“, and “Note 10 – Subsequent Events, to the unaudited financial statements included herein..

 

We have very limited financial resources. We currently have a monthly cash requirement of approximately $306,000,$525,000, exclusive of capital expenditures. We anticipate the advances made, and required to be continued to made on a monthly basis by HotPlay, pursuant to the terms of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, assuming they continue as required pursuant to the terms of the HotPlay Exchange Agreement, and funds raised through the sale of the Streeterville Note and pursuant to the underwritten Offering, will be sufficient to provide us working capital through the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange. In the event the HotPlay Share Exchange does not close on a timely basis, HotPlay ceases making required advances, or the HotPlay Share Exchange is terminated, we anticipate requiring additional funding, because our projected cash generated from operations is not sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, and if such additional funds are required, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities or loans. However, we may be unable to raise additional capital upon terms acceptable to us. The sale of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, or to increase our ownership of Axion and/or Longroot Cayman or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

We will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the on-going operation and increased market penetration of our products including the development of national advertising relationships.relationships, increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support ourselves. We believe that in the aggregate, we could require several millions of dollars to support and expand the marketing and development of our travel products, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from travelall products are fully-implementedfully implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. Our failure to obtain additional capital to finance our working capital needs on acceptable terms, or at all, will negatively impact our business, financial condition, and liquidity. As of November 30, 2020, we had approximately $13 million of current liabilities. We currently do not have limitedthe resources to satisfy these obligations, and our inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern. Our failure to obtain additional capital to finance our working capital needs on acceptable terms, or at all, will negatively impact our business, financial condition and liquidity.

 

To date, we have funded our operations with the proceeds from equity sales,and debt financings and sale of Verus’ shares held by the Company described in “Note 4 – Acquisitions and Dispositions”. Wewe anticipate that we will continueneed to meet our funding requirements through the sale of equity or debt financing, and sale of Verus’ shares, which funds may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. We foreseeanticipate that we would need several millions of dollars to properly market our productsservices and fund the operations for the next 12 months. Assuming

Although we are able to raisecurrently cannot predict the funds discussed above,full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our fourth quarter fiscal 2021 financial results or for the year ended February 28, 2021, we currently anticipate that bya significant decrease in year-over-year revenue (similar to the second fiscal quarter of FQEdecrease in quarter-over-quarter revenue we experienced during the quarters ended May 31, 2020, August 31, 2020 our operations could be self-sustaining and providing the necessary cash flow to enable usNovember 30, 2020), which decreases we currently expect to continue throughout at least the early portion of fiscal 2022. However, the ultimate extent of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on global travel and overall economic activity is unknown and impossible to growpredict at this time.

Separately, our capital requirements may increase in the Company.near term and long-term due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting reduced demand for travel services, the increases in cancellations and re-bookings, and the extent to which such pandemic may further impact the ability of our customers to fulfill their payment obligations.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Market Risk

 

This represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument because of fluctuations in interest rates and market prices. We do not currently have any trading derivatives, nor do we expect to have any in the future. We have established policies and internal processes related to the management of market risks, which we use in the normal course of our business operations.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of November 30, 2019,2020, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

As of November 30, 2019,2020, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions, and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving breach of contract claims, intellectual property, employment issues, and other related claims and vendor matters.

 

Such current litigation and prior settlements are described in, and incorporated by reference in, this “Item 1. Legal Proceedings” from, Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies“, under the heading “Legal Matters”. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.

  

Additionally, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’sAnnual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1)10-K for the year ended February 28, 2019,29, 2020, filed with the Commission on June 14, 2019,May 29, 2020, under the heading “Risk Factors”, except as discussed below, and investors should review the risks provided in the Form 10-K and below, prior to making an investment in the Company. The business, financial condition and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described in the Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2019,29, 2020, under “Risk Factors”, and“ or below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.

 

We agreedRisks Relating to pay significant amounts to IDS pursuant to the Property Purchase Agreement and related agreements.Our Business:

 

On August 15, 2019, we entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement with IDS,We need additional capital which offers an e-commerce platform. Pursuantmay not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, which raises questions about our ability to the agreement, the Company purchased certain proprietary technology from IDS for the reservation and booking of air travel, hotel accommodations, car rentals, and ancillary products, services, and amenities, integration of the same with the providers of such products and services, associated functions, including website addresses, patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets relating thereto, and all goodwill associated therewith. In conjunction with the purchase, the Company also entered into an Asset Management Services Agreement with IDS, pursuant to which we agreed to provide financing, facilities, and other support for the operations of the IP Assets. The Management Agreement hascontinue as a term of 12 months, unless otherwise extended with the mutual consent of the parties. We were required to pay IDS $350,000 at the closing as the first payment due pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement (which payment was timely made) and to make a payment 90 days following the closing date in the amount of $284,400. On November 15, 2019, the Company paid $139,400 to IDS and the remaining amount of $145,000 was recorded as accrued expenses. In addition to the payments due pursuant to the Asset Management Services Agreement (described above), the Company entered into an Owner Support Commitment with IDS, based upon the parties mutual agreement as to how to fund the operation and commercial exploitation of the Travel Booking Engine over a seven (7) month period, which requires us to provide a minimum of $1,200,000 in funding. going concern.

As of November 30, 2019,2020, the Company had expended approximately $35,169 relatingan accumulated deficit of $122,955,764. Net loss for the nine months ended November 30, 2020, amounted to $7,102,867. Our travel and commission operations generated a gross profit of only $4,579 for the nine months ended November 30, 2020, and as of November 30, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $534,137. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the “Call Center” operation.absence of a long-standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven. We may never ever achieve profitable operations or generate significant revenues. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our products, the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate profits. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, achieve, or sustain profitability, or continue as a going concern. Furthermore, due to our relatively small size and market footprint, we may be more susceptible to issues affecting the global travel and cryptocurrency industries in general, such as COVID-19, contractions in the global travel industry, and cryptocurrency regulatory changes, as compared to larger competitors.

We currently have historicallya monthly cash requirement of approximately $525,000. We believe that in the aggregate, we could require several millions of dollars to support and expand the marketing and development of our products, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from all products are fully implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. We require additional funding in the future and if we are unable to obtain additional funding on acceptable terms, or at all, it will negatively impact our business, financial condition, and liquidity.

Since our inception, we have funded our operations with the proceeds from equity and debt financings. Currently, revenues provide less than 10% of our cash requirements. Our remaining cash needs are derived from debt and equity raises.

We have experienced liquidity issues due to, among other reasons, our limited ability to raise adequate capital on acceptable terms. We have historically relied upon the sale of common stock and the issuance of promissory notes to fund our operations and have devoted significant efforts to reduce that exposure. We anticipate that we will need to sellissue equity to fund our operations and continue to repay our outstanding debt for the foreseeable future. If we are unable to achieve operational profitability or are not successful in securing other forms of financing, we will have to evaluate alternative actions to reduce our operating expenses and conserve cash.

46

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included herein also include a going concern footnote from our auditors.

In the event we are unable to raise adequate funding in the future for our operations and to pay our outstanding debt obligations, we may be forced to scale back our business plan and/or liquidate some or all our assets or may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection, which could result in the value of our outstanding securities declining in value or becoming worthless.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and is expected to continue to have, a material adverse impact on the travel industry and our business, operating results, and liquidity.

The COVID-19 pandemic, and governmental responses thereto, including travel restrictions, ‘stay-at-home’ orders and required social distancing orders, have severely restricted the level of economic activity around the world, and is having an unprecedented effect on the global travel industry. Additionally, the ability to travel has been curtailed through border closures, mandated travel restrictions and limited operations of hotels and airlines and may be further limited through additional voluntary or mandated closures of travel-related businesses.

The measures implemented to contain the COVID-19 pandemic have had, and are expected to continue to have, a significant negative effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position. In particular, such measures have led to unprecedented levels of cancellations and limited new travel bookings in our travel division. Moreover, any additional measures or changes in laws or regulations, whether in the United States or other countries, that further impair the ability or desire of individuals to travel, including laws or regulations banning travel, requiring the closure of hotels or other travel-related businesses (such as restaurants) or otherwise restricting travel due to the risk of the spreading of COVID-19, may exacerbate the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position.

The duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain and difficult to predict. The pandemic could continue to impede global economic activity for an extended period, even as restrictions are beginning to be lifted in many jurisdictions and vaccines are beginning to be rolled out, leading to decreased per capita income and disposable income, increased and sustained unemployment or a decline in consumer confidence, all of which could significantly reduce discretionary spending by individuals and businesses on travel and may create a recession in the United States or globally. In turn, that could have a negative impact on demand for our services. We also cannot predict the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our partners and their business and operations or the ways that the pandemic may fundamentally alter the travel industry. The aforementioned circumstances could result in a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, potentially for a prolonged period.

The Company’s liquidity could also be adversely impacted by delays in payments of outstanding accounts receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms and insolvencies.

It is difficult to estimate COVID-19’s impact on future revenues, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity or financial condition, but such impacts have been and will continue to be significant and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity position for the foreseeable future. In the near term, we do expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to negatively affect our operating results and year-over-year results.

Separately, our capital requirements associated with our travel division may increase in the near term and long-term due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting reduced demand for travel services, the increases in cancellations and re-bookings, and the extent to which such pandemic may further impact the ability of our customers to fulfill their payment obligations.

As a result of the above, in the event the HotPlay Share Exchange described above under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Recent Events“, does not close timely, if at all, we may be forced to scale back our operations, adjust our plan of operations, borrow or raise additional funding, which may not be available on favorable terms if at all. In the event we require, and are unable to raise additional funding in the future, we may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection.

A significant portion of our assets are subject to ongoing litigation, the result of which may cause a reduction in the value of such assets on our balance sheet and/or require such assets to be written off.

The Company is currently in ongoing litigation with IDS, Inc. (“IDS”) and certain other defendants affiliated with IDS. In August 2019, the Company acquired certain intellectual property from IDS pursuant to the terms of an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement (the “IP Purchase Agreement”). The litigation seeks rescission of the IP Purchase Agreement and return of the 1,968,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company (the “IDS Shares”) issued to IDS pursuant to the IP Purchase Agreement, among other things. In the event the IP Purchase Agreement is unwound, the value of our assets, or more specifically, the value of website development costs and intangible assets, net, on our balance sheet (currently $10,321,343), may be decreased by the value of such acquired assets ($5,015,593). Separately, depending on the outcome of the litigation, we may determine that a partial or full write-down of such intellectual property assets obtained from IDS is necessary or warranted. The outcome of the litigation with IDS and related parties may result in the value of our assets decreasing in value significantly, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements, our ability to raise funding, could trigger a default under our loan and other agreements, and/or could result in us failing to meet the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market, all of which could cause the value our securities to decline in value.

Axion owes us a substantial amount of money, the payment of amountswhich is in default, and which may not be timely repaid, if at all.

Pursuant to the Axion Share Exchange, which closed on November 16, 2020, the Company acquired $7,657,024 of debt owed by Axion. As of June 30, 2019, the last date that publicly available information for Axion is available, Axion had $2.5 million more liabilities than assets. The Axion debt acquired by the Company pursuant to the November 16, 2020 closing of the Axion Share Exchange is currently past due and has not been paid to date. We may have to take legal action to enforce the repayment of such debt. Furthermore, Axion may not have sufficient cash to repay such debt. The debt is unsecured and as such, secured creditors of Axion may have priority rights to Axion’s assets in connection with any liquidation or bankruptcy. In the event the Axion debt is not paid and/or not paid in full, it could have a material adverse effect on our cash flows and our ability to pay our debts as they become due. Any continued failure by Axion to timely repay their debt obligations under the Axion debt acquired pursuant to the Axion Share Exchange could cause the value of our securities to decline in value or become worthless.

Our obligations under the Streeterville Capital, LLC Promissory Note are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets.

On November 23, 2020, we sold Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”), a Secured Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $5,520,000 (the “Streeterville Note”). Streeterville paid consideration of (a) $3,500,000 in cash; and (b) issued the Company a promissory note in the amount of $1,500,000 (the “Investor Note”), in consideration for the Streeterville Note, which included an original issue discount of $500,000 (the “OID”) and reimbursement of Streeterville’s transaction expenses of $20,000. A total of $350,000 of the OID is fully earned and the remaining $150,000 is not fully earned until the Investor Note is fully funded by Streeterville. The Streeterville Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and matures 12 months after its issuance date (i.e., on November 23, 2021). From time to time, beginning six months after issuance, Streeterville may redeem a portion of the Streeterville Note, not to exceed an amount of $875,000 per month if the Investor Note has not been funded by Streeterville, and $1.25 million in the event the Investor Note has been funded in full. In the event we don’t pay the amount of any requested redemption within three trading days, an amount equal to 25% of such redemption amount is added to the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note. Under certain circumstances, the Company may defer the redemption payments up to three times, for 30 days each, provided that upon each such deferral the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note is increased by 2%. For so long as the Streeterville Note remains outstanding, the Company has agreed to pay to Streeterville 20% of the gross proceeds that the Company receives from the sale of any of its common stock or preferred stock, which payments will be applied towards and will reduce the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note, which percentage increases to 30% upon the occurrence of, and continuance of, an event of default under the Streeterville Note.

In connection with the Streeterville Note, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with Streeterville (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the obligations of the Company are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

As such, Streeterville may enforce its security interests over our assets and/or our subsidiaries which secure the repayment of such obligations, take control of our assets and operations, force us to seek bankruptcy protection or force us to curtail or abandon our current business plans and operations. If that were to happen, any investment in the Company could become worthless.

Risks Relating to The Share Exchanges:

The number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the HotPlay Share Exchange and in connection with the Axion Preferred Conversion will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders and a change of control of the Company.

Pursuant to the HotPlay Share Exchange, following the completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange and at the time the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converts into common stock of the Company (the “Axion Preferred Conversion”)(anticipated to occur near or at the same time as the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange), the current HotPlay securityholders are expected to own approximately 64.0% of the aggregate outstanding shares of common stock of Monaker, and the Axion Stockholders and Axion Creditors are expected to own approximately 13.8% of the aggregate outstanding common stock of Monaker (without taking into account shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Creditor Warrants), with the Monaker stockholders prior to the effective date of the closing and conversion holding approximately 22.2% of the aggregate outstanding common stock of the combined company (without taking into account shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Creditor Warrants). As a result, the total shares of common stock issuable upon closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange and in connection with the Axion Preferred Conversion will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders, and result in a change of control.

The Company has not yet transferred the shares of Axion acquired pursuant to the closing of the Axion Share Exchange into its name.

Although the Axion Share Exchange closed on November 16, 2020, the Company has yet to formally complete the transfer of the ownership of the Axion shares into its name, due to IDS.a Cease Trade Order issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission, which impacts Axion, and the Company may choose to not formally complete such transfer, but to instead obtain the contractual rights to vote and receive the economic rights to such shares, until such time as such shares can be formally transferred. In the event the transfer of the Axion shares is not approved, or delayed, the Company may be unable to take title to such shares, which could have adverse effects on the Company’s accounting for such acquisition and may ultimately prevent the Company from recognizing the value of such shares. For example, as of November 30, 2020, the Company has accounted for its 33.85% interest in Axion as an investment in affiliate, valued at the aggregate liquidation preference of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued in consideration for such shares of Axion, as ownership of such Axion shares have not yet been formally transferred to the Company.

Combining HotPlay and the Company may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than expected and the Company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the HotPlay Share Exchange, including expected financial and operating performance of the combined company.

The success of the HotPlay Share Exchange will depend, in part, on the combined company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings from combining the businesses of the Company and HotPlay. To realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from the HotPlay Share Exchange, the Company and HotPlay must successfully integrate and combine their businesses in a manner that permits those cost savings to be realized. If the Company and HotPlay are not able to successfully achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the HotPlay Share Exchange may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. In addition, the actual cost savings of the HotPlay Share Exchange could be less than anticipated.

The Company and HotPlay have operated and, until the completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange, must continue to operate independently. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of our ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the HotPlay Share Exchange. Integration efforts between the two companies may also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on each of the Company and HotPlay during this transition period and for an undetermined period after completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange on the combined company.

The combined company may be unable to retain Company and/or HotPlay personnel successfully after the HotPlay Share Exchange is completed.

The success of the HotPlay Share Exchange will depend in part on the combined company’s ability to retain the talents and dedication of key employees currently employed by the Company and HotPlay. It is possible that these employees may decide not to remain with the Company or HotPlay, as applicable, while the HotPlay Share Exchange is pending, or with the combined company after the HotPlay Share Exchange is consummated. If key employees terminate their employment, the combined company’s business activities may be adversely affected and management’s attention may be diverted from successfully integrating the Company and HotPlay to hiring suitable replacements, all of which may cause the combined company’s business to suffer. In addition, the Company and HotPlay may not be able to locate or retain suitable replacements for any key employees who leave either company.

Regulatory and other approvals may not be received, may take longer than expected or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the HotPlay Share Exchange.

Before the HotPlay Share Exchange may be completed, applicable approvals may need to be obtained under certain laws and regulations and from various third parties. In deciding whether to grant regulatory clearances and approvals, the relevant governmental entities may consider, among other things, the effect of the HotPlay Share Exchange on competition within their relevant jurisdiction. The terms and conditions of the approvals that are granted may impose requirements, limitations or costs or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business. We and HotPlay may need to provide significant additional consideration to third parties who hold contractual rights to approve and consent to the HotPlay Share Exchange. There can be no assurance that regulators will not impose conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions and that such conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions will not have the effect of delaying completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange or that obtaining the consent of such regulators or third parties will not result in additional material costs. In addition, any such conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions may result in the delay or abandonment of the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The consummation of the HotPlay Share Exchange will result in a change of control of the Company.

Due to the significant number of shares issuable at the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange (i.e., 52,000,000 shares of Monaker common stock (currently representing approximately 64.0% of the shares of common stock which will be outstanding at closing, based on Monaker’s current outstanding shares)), a change of control of the Company will be deemed to have occurred, and the owners of HotPlay prior to the HotPlay Share Exchange will obtain control of the Company (both as to the board of directors and voting control over the Company). Additionally, the HotPlay Exchange Agreement requires all but three of our current directors to resign and the appointment of four new directors, which are to be nominated by the principal stockholder of HotPlay, and such principal stockholder and Monaker are required to mutually agree on a seventh, eight and nineth director who will be independent, unless otherwise agreed by the parties (one of which is currently anticipated to be one of Monaker’s current directors). Additionally, the new stockholders obtaining shares in the HotPlay Share Exchange will exercise control in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election and removal of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a further change in control. Any investors who purchase shares or hold shares prior to the HotPlay Share Exchange will be minority stockholders and as such will have little to no say in the direction of the Company and the election of directors. Additionally, it will be difficult if not impossible for investors to remove the directors appointed by the prior owners of HotPlay, which will mean they will remain in control of who serves as officers of the Company as well as whether any changes are made in the board of directors. An owner of the Company’s securities should keep in mind that your shares, and your voting of such shares, will likely have little effect on the outcome of corporate decisions.

49

Upon the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange we plan to transition the majority of our business operations to those of HotPlay.

While we plan to continue to operate in the travel industry, and through Longroot, following the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, we anticipate that the more significant portion of our assets and operations will be related to in-game advertising. We have no experience operating as an in-game advertising company and our operations in such industry will be subject to all of the risks of any new business in a new industry. Our change in business structure may not be successful. Additionally, such new controlling stockholders, directors and officers may not be able to properly manage our new direction. If our new management fails to properly manage and direct our operations, we may be forced to scale back or abandon our operations, which may cause the value of our common stock to decline or become worthless.

We will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the HotPlay Share Exchange is pending.

Uncertainty about the effect of the HotPlay Share Exchange on employees and partners may have an adverse effect on us. These uncertainties may impair our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the HotPlay Share Exchange is completed, and could cause partners and others that deal with us to seek to change existing business relationships, cease doing business with us or cause potential new partners to delay doing business with us until the HotPlay Share Exchange has been successfully completed or terminated. Retention of certain employees may be challenging during the pendency of the HotPlay Share Exchange, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles or compensation structure. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with the business, our business following the HotPlay Share Exchange could be negatively impacted. In addition, the HotPlay Share Exchange restricts us from making certain acquisitions and taking other specified actions until the HotPlay Share Exchange is completed without certain consents and approvals. These restrictions may prevent us from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The HotPlay Share Exchange limits our ability to pursue alternatives to the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The HotPlay Share Exchange contains provisions that could adversely impact competing proposals to acquire us. These provisions include the prohibition on us generally from soliciting any acquisition proposal or offer for a competing transaction. These provisions might discourage a third party that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of our company from considering or proposing an acquisition, even if that party were prepared to pay consideration with a higher value than the current proposed consideration payable pursuant to the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The HotPlay Exchange Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the HotPlay Share Exchange may not be completed.

The HotPlay Exchange Agreement is subject to several conditions that must be fulfilled in order to complete the HotPlay Share Exchange. These conditions to the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange may not be fulfilled and, accordingly, the HotPlay Share Exchange may not be completed. In addition, the parties to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement can generally terminate such agreement if the transactions contemplated thereby do not close by February 28, 2021, under certain other conditions if the terms of the HotPlay Share Exchange are breached, and the parties can mutually decide to terminate the HotPlay Exchange Agreement at any time. In addition, the Company and the counterparties to the HotPlay Exchange Agreement may elect to terminate the HotPlay Exchange Agreement in certain other circumstances.

Litigation could prevent or delay the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange or otherwise negatively impact the business and operations of the Company.

The Company may incur costs in connection with the defense or settlement of any stockholder lawsuits filed in connection with the HotPlay Share Exchange. Such saleslitigation could have an adverse effect on the financial condition and results of equityoperations of the Company and could prevent or delay the consummation of the HotPlay Share Exchange. Such litigation, affecting HotPlay and/or the HotPlay Stockholders, could delay or prevent the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange.

Certain of the Company’s warrant holders will need to approve the HotPlay Share Exchange or agree to modify such warrants, or such warrant holders will have the right to require the Company to repurchase such warrants upon the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange.

Certain of the Company’s outstanding warrants agreements include provisions which allow such holders the right, following a fundamental transaction, such as the HotPlay Share Exchange, to require the Company to repurchase such securities at their Black Scholes values, which repurchase amounts may be significant and may be several times more than the exercise prices of such warrants, even if they are significantly out-of-the-money. As a result, in the event such warrant holders do not consent to the HotPlay Share Exchange, exercise their warrants prior to the date of closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, or otherwise agree to modify such warrants, the Company may be forced to expend significant resources repurchasing such warrants and the funding for such repurchases may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and/or such conditions and such salesrequirements may cause significant dilution to existing shareholders. ultimately prevent the HotPlay Share Exchange from closing.

50

Termination of the HotPlay Share Exchange could negatively impact the Company.

In the event the HotPlay Share Exchange is terminated, our business may have been adversely impacted by our failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the HotPlay Share Exchange, and the market price of our common stock might decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the HotPlay Share Exchange will be completed. If the HotPlay Share Exchange is terminated and our board of directors seeks another acquisition or business combination, our stockholders cannot be certain that we will be able to find a party willing to offer equivalent or more attractive consideration than the consideration provided for by the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The combined company will likely be required to re-meet the initial listing standards of The NASDAQ Capital Market in order to close the HotPlay Share Exchange.

The closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange requires that the Company requalify for initial listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, pursuant to the applicable guidance and requirements of NASDAQ as of the date of the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, if required, and we currently anticipate being required to re-meet such initial listing standards upon closing. The NASDAQ Capital Market initial listing standards include more stringent requirements than The NASDAQ Capital Market continued listing standards.

The NASDAQ Capital Market initial listing standards require that issuers meeting one of the following tests: (1) $750,000 of pre-tax income (in either the last fiscal year or two of the three most recent years), $5 million of public float, $4 million of stockholders’ equity and a minimum closing price of $3 per share; (2) $15 million of public float, $5 million of stockholders’ equity, a $3 per share price and 2 years of operating history; or (3) a $50 million market cap; $15 million of public float, $4 million of stockholders’ equity, and a $2 per share price, plus in each case 300 round lot stockholders and 1,000,000 shares of total public float, with at least half of such required number of round lot stockholders holding unregistered securities with a minimum value of $2,500.

We may not be able to re-meet the initial listing standards described above upon closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, which is a required condition to closing the HotPlay Share Exchange, if required by The NASDAQ Capital Market.

The HotPlay Share Exchange contain provisions that may discourage other companies from trying to combine with us on more favorable terms while the HotPlay Share Exchange is pending.

The HotPlay Share Exchange contains provisions that may discourage a third party from submitting a business combination proposal to us that might result in greater value to our stockholders than the HotPlay Share Exchange. These provisions include a general prohibition on us from soliciting, or, subject to certain exceptions, entering into discussions with any third party regarding any acquisition proposal or offers for competing transactions.

Failure to complete the HotPlay Share Exchange could negatively impact our stock price and future business and financial results.

If the HotPlay Share Exchange is not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

●           we will not realize the benefits expected from the HotPlay Share Exchange, including a potentially enhanced competitive and financial position, expansion of assets and therefore opportunities, and will instead be subject to all the risks we currently face as an independent company;

●           we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets and our partners and employees;

●           the HotPlay Share Exchange places certain restrictions on the conduct of our business prior to the completion of the HotPlay Share Exchange or the termination of the HotPlay Share Exchange. Such restrictions, the waiver of which is subject to the consent of the counterparties to such agreement, may prevent us from making certain acquisitions, taking certain other specified actions or otherwise pursuing business opportunities during the pendency of the HotPlay Share Exchange; and

●           matters relating to the HotPlay Share Exchange (including integration planning) may require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which would otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that may have been beneficial to us as an independent company.

Significant costs are expected to be incurred in connection with the consummation of the HotPlay Share Exchange and integration of the Company and HotPlay into a single business, including legal, accounting, financial advisory and other costs.

If the HotPlay Share Exchange is consummated, the Company and HotPlay expect to incur significant costs in connection with integrating their operations and personnel. These costs may include costs for:

●      employee redeployment, relocation or severance;

●      integration of information systems; and

●      reorganization or closures of facilities.

In addition, the Company and HotPlay expect to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with combining the operations of the two companies, which cannot be estimated accurately at this time. The Company and HotPlay will also incur transaction fees and other costs related to the HotPlay Share Exchange. Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the businesses of the Company and HotPlay. Although the Company and HotPlay expect that the elimination of duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses, may offset incremental transaction and transaction-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all. There can be no assurance that the Company and HotPlay will be successful in these integration efforts.

51

The conversion of the HotPlay Notes (and future HotPlay convertible notes) into common stock pursuant to their terms, will cause immediate and substantial dilution.

As described in greater detail above under “Part I – Financial Statements – Item. Financial Statements – Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 5 – Line of Credit and Notes Payable—HotPlay Convertible Notes”, in certain situations the HotPlay Notes (and future convertible notes issued to HotPlay) automatically convert into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $2.00 per share. If converted in full as of the date of this report, without taking into account accrued interest, which also converts into common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share, HotPlay would be issued an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of common stock. Such issuance would result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders.

Risks Relating to Longroot Thailand

Cryptocurrency exchanges and other trading venues are relatively new.

When cryptocurrency exchanges or other trading venues are involved in fraud or experience security failures or other operational issues, such events could result in a reduction in cryptocurrency prices, impact the success of Longroot Thailand and have a material adverse effect on the ability of Longroot Thailand to continue as a going concern, which correspondingly could harm the business, prospects and operations of the Company. Cryptocurrency market prices depend, directly or indirectly, on the prices set on exchanges and other trading venues, which are new and, in most cases, largely unregulated as compared to established, regulated exchanges for securities, commodities or currencies. In the event Longroot Thailand faces fraud, security failures, operational issues or similar events, such factors would have a material adverse effect on the ability of Longroot Thailand to continue as a going concern, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or operations of Longroot Thailand.

Longroot Thailand’s business may be adversely affected by market uncertainty or lack of confidence among investors.

Longroot Thailand’s revenues are derived from the participation in fundraising activities via the issuance of crypto tokens through its Initial Coin Offering (ICO) Portals. Uncertain economic and market conditions, and other poor geopolitical conditions, may adversely affect investor confidence and business activities of potential clients. This could result in declines in size and number of fundraises, which would likely negatively impact Longroot Thailand’s results of operations.

Regulatory changes or actions may alter the nature of the Company’s ownership of Longroot Thailand or restrict the use of cryptocurrencies in a manner that adversely affects Longroot Thailand’s business, prospects or operations.

As cryptocurrencies have grown in both popularity and market size, governments around the world have reacted differently to cryptocurrencies, with certain governments deeming them illegal while others have allowed their use and trade. Thailand, where Longroot Thailand is regulated, is the first country to approve a legal initial coin offering (“ICO”) portal for issuers. Under Thai Securities and Exchange Commission (“Thai SEC”) regulation, all crypto token issuance in Thailand must be approved by the Thai SEC and carried out via an approved ICO Portal such as Longroot Thailand. Governments may in the future take regulatory actions that prohibit or severely restrict the right to acquire, own, hold, sell, use or trade cryptocurrencies or to exchange cryptocurrencies for fiat currency. Similar actions by governments or regulatory bodies could impact the ability of Longroot Thailand to continue to operate and such actions could affect the ability of Longroot Thailand to continue as a going concern, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or operations of the Company.

Furthermore, tokens issued by Longroot Thailand may be classified as securities depending on the nature of the token and the regulatory frameworks of the respective jurisdictions. Longroot Thailand’s activities may be subject to securities regulations in different jurisdictions, which could limit its business activity, such as limits on the personnel it can issue tokens to, and this may negatively impact Longroot Thailand’s profitability. In addition, compliance with existing laws and regulations, will involve significant amounts of time, including that of Longroot Thailand’s senior leaders and that of dedicated compliance personnel, all of which might negatively impact Longroot Thailand’s results of operations.

The development and acceptance of cryptographic and algorithmic protocols governing the issuance of and transactions in cryptocurrencies are subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate.

The use of cryptocurrencies to, among other things, buy and sell goods and services and complete transactions, is part of a new and rapidly evolving industry that employs digital assets based upon a computer-generated mathematical and/or cryptographic protocol. The growth of this industry in general, and the use of cryptocurrencies in particular, is subject to a high degree of uncertainty, and the slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of developing protocols may occur and is unpredictable.

52

Longroot Thailand’s coins might be used for illegal or improper purposes, which could expose Longroot Thailand to additional liability and harm its business.

Longroot Thailand’s coins remain susceptible to potentially illegal or improper uses as criminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal activities involving internet services, such as money laundering, terrorist financing, drug trafficking, human trafficking, illegal online gaming, romance and other online scams, prohibited sales of pharmaceuticals, fraudulent sale of goods or services, piracy of software, movies, music and other copyrighted or trademarked goods, unauthorized uses of credit and debit cards or bank accounts and similar misconduct. Coinholders may also encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to engage in illegal activities. If the measures Longroot Thailand has taken are too restrictive and inadvertently screen proper transactions, this could diminish customer experience which could harm its business. Thailand’s business could be harmed if customers use its system for illegal or improper purposes.

Acceptance and/or widespread use of cryptocurrency is uncertain.

Currently, there is a relatively small use of cryptocurrencies in the retail and commercial marketplace for goods or services. In comparison, there is relatively large use by speculators contributing to price volatility. The relative lack of acceptance of cryptocurrencies in the retail and commercial marketplace limits the ability of end-users to use them to pay for goods and services. Such lack of acceptance or decline in acceptances would have a material adverse effect on the ability of Longroot Thailand to continue as a going concern or to pursue this segment at all, which would have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or operations of Longroot Thailand and ultimately the Company.

There are cyber security risks related to cryptocurrency trading.

Trading platforms and third-party service providers may be vulnerable to hacking or other malicious activity. As with any computer code generally, flaws in cryptocurrency codes may be exposed to such negative activities. Several errors and defects have been found previously, including those that disabled some functionality for users of cryptocurrency trading platforms and exposed such users’ personal information. Flaws in and exploitations of the source code allowing malicious actors to take or create money have previously occurred. Any of the above events effecting Longroot Thailand may adversely affect its operations and results of operations and ultimately have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Competing blockchain platforms and technologies may cause consumers to use alternative distributed ledgers.

The development and acceptance of competing blockchain platforms or technologies may cause consumers to use alternative distributed ledgers or an alternative to distributed ledgers altogether. This may adversely affect Longroot Thailand.

Future regulatory changes affecting Longroot Thailand are unable to predict.

Digital assets in Thailand are regulated under the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand, and are subject to comprehensive statutes, regulations and margin requirements. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand is authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, the retroactive implementation of speculative position limits or higher margin requirements, the establishment of daily price limits and the suspension of trading. The regulation of digital assets both inside and outside Thailand is a rapidly changing area of law and is subject to modification by government and judicial action. Digital assets also currently face an uncertain regulatory landscape in various jurisdictions. Various foreign jurisdictions may, in the near future, adopt laws, regulations or directives that affect digital assets and its users, particularly digital asset operators and service providers that fall within such jurisdictions’ regulatory scope. Such laws, regulations or directives may conflict with those of Thailand and may negatively impact the acceptance of digital assets by users, merchants and service providers outside of Thailand and may therefore impede the growth of the digital asset economy. The effect of any future domestic or foreign regulatory change on the Longroot Thailand is unable to timely, pay amounts duebe predicted, but such change could be substantial and adverse to IDS, IDS may declare us in default of the applicable agreements and/or take legal action against us. Longroot Thailand’s operations and prospects.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
