Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On July 27, 2023, PetVivo Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued convertible promissory notes (“Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate amount of $550,000 to three accredited investors pursuant to debenture subscription agreements (“Debenture Subscription Agreement”). The Convertible Notes mature on January 26, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”), bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum and automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock which are restricted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date or (ii) upon the occurrence of certain events prior to the Maturity Date, including, without limitation, a Qualified Financing, Sale or Public Offering (as such terms are defined in the Convertible Notes).
If the Company raises at least $2 million in a sale of its securities to investors who are not affiliated with the Company (a “Qualified Financing”) prior to the Maturity Date, the Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into restricted shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) the per share price at which the Company sells Shares in the Qualified Financing or (ii) $1.60 per share. If the Convertible Notes are converted at the Maturity Date, the conversion price is equal to $1.60 per share. If the Company completes a Public Offering or Sale (as such terms are defined in the Convertible Notes), the Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into restricted shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the offering price of the Company’s common stock in the Public Offering or the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of the Sale, respectively.
The Company may prepay the Convertible Notes at any time. The Convertible Notes contain a number of customary events of default. The Convertible Notes are unsecured and are subordinated to the Company’s current outstanding liabilities.
The Convertible Note Offering was completed pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). The issuance of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes will be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Each investor is sophisticated and represented in writing that he, she, or it is an accredited investor and acquired the securities for their own account for investment purposes. A legend will be placed on the Convertible Notes and the stock certificates issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes stating that the securities are “restricted securities” under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, have not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without registration or an exemption therefrom.
The foregoing is only a summary of the material terms of the Debenture Subscription Agreements and the Convertible Notes and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. The summary of the Convertible Notes and the Debenture Subscription Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the forms of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
