The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature resulting from the market price of the Company’s common stock in excess of the conversion price was $176,471 on the date of issuance, and the Company recorded a discount on the CSW Note in that amount. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded accrued interest on the CSW Note of $28,688 and recorded an additional $25,857 in interest expense as the result of amortization of the note discount. On May 28, 2019, the Company received notice from CSW Ventures, L.P. of the conversion of a total of $170,000 of the principal balance of the 8% Senior Secured Promissory Note dated February 28, 2019. Accordingly, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its common stock based on a $0.17 per share conversion price. In connection with the conversions, $17,225 in unamortized discount was recorded as interest expense and the Company has reduced the carrying amount of convertible notes payable by $152,775.

The CSW Amendment increased the balance of the CSW Note by $100,000 to reflect an additional $100,000 advanced to the Company on July 12, 2019, and by $41,863 to add accrued interest to date to the principal balance. The CSW Amendment also decreased the conversion price to $0.11 per share, with the remaining terms unchanged from the original CSW Note (see Note 11). The Company evaluated the modification under the guidance in ASC 470-50 and determined that the terms of the amended note qualify as “substantially different” from the original CSW Note because the change in the fair value of the conversion feature was greater than 10% of the carrying value of the CSW Note on the amendment date.
