Under the terms of the Amendment, $5,000,000 (less certain fees and expenses) was funded by Lender to the Borrowers in connection with the Wholesale Closing Date (the "Tranche II Advance"). The Tranche II Advance has a maturity date of October 1, 2021 and an initial interest rate of 11.00%. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company issued to Hercules a warrant to purchase 20,950 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.16 per share. This warrant is immediately exercisable and expires on October 30, 2023. Except for the exercise price and expiration date, the terms of this warrant are substantially the same as the Warrant described in Note 9. On April 30, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Borrowers"), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Hercules Capital, Inc. a Maryland Corporation ("Hercules") pursuant to which Hercules may provide one or more term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $15.0 million (the "Hercules Loan"). Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, $5.0 million was funded at closing with the balance available in two additional tranches over the term of the Loan Agreement, subject to certain operating targets and otherwise as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The Hercules Loan has an initial 36-month maturity and initial 10.5% interest rate. The Hercules Loan is subject to various covenants, including gross profit and EBITDA. As of December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with such covenants. Under the Loan Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company issued Hercules a warrant to purchase 81,818 (increasing to 109,091 if a fourth tranche in the principal amount of up to $5.0 million is advanced at the party's agreement) shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock (the "Warrant") at an exercise price of $5.50 per share (the "Warrant Price"). The Warrant is immediately exercisable and expires on April 30, 2023. If at any time before April 30, 2019, the Company makes a New Issuance (as defined below) for no consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately before the New Issuance (a "Dilutive Issuance") or the consideration for an issuance is later adjusted downward with certain exceptions as set forth in the Warrant, then the Warrant Price will be reduced to an amount equal to the lower consideration price or adjusted exercise price or conversion price (the "New Issuance Price"). If at any time after April 30, 2019, the Company makes a Dilutive Issuance, then the Warrant Price will be reduced to the amount computed using the following formula: A*[(C+D)/B]. For purposes of this formula, (i) A represents the Warrant Price in effect immediately before the Dilutive Issuance, (ii) B represents the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after the New Issuance (on a fully-diluted basis), (iii) C represents the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately before the New Issuance (on a fully-diluted basis), and (iv) D represents the number of shares of common stock that would be issuable for total consideration to be received for the New Issuance if the purchaser paid the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the New Issuance. New Issuance shall mean (A) any issuance or sale by the Company of any class of shares of the Company (including the issuance or sale of any shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company) other than certain excluded securities as set forth in the Warrant, (B) any issuance or sale by the Company of any options, rights or warrants to subscribe for any class of shares of the Company other than certain excluded securities as set forth in the Warrant, or (C) the issuance or sale of any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any class of shares of the Company other than certain excluded securities as set forth in the Warrant.

As of December 31, 2017, the effective rate of interest was 6.5%. Advances and interest under the Credit Line were due and payable upon demand, but, in general, in no event later than 150 days from the date of request for the advance (or the date of purchase in the case of a universal funding agreement), or of the receivable, as applicable. Upon any event of default (including, without limitation, the Borrower's obligation to pay upon demand any outstanding liabilities of the Credit Line), NextGear could have, at its option and without notice to the Borrower, exercise its right to demand immediate payment of all liabilities and other indebtedness and amounts owed to NextGear and its affiliates by the Borrower and its affiliates. The Credit Line was secured by a grant of a security interest in the vehicle inventory and other assets of the Borrower and payment was guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a guaranty in favor of the NextGear and its affiliates. On February 20, 2018, the Company notified NextGear that it was terminating the Credit Line, and all security or other credit documents entered into in connection therewith. At the time of the notification, there was no indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Line. Convertible Note Payable-Related Party On July 13, 2016, the Company entered into an unsecured convertible note (the "BHLP Note") with Berrard Holdings, an entity owned and controlled by a current officer and director, Mr. Berrard, pursuant to which the Company was required to repay $191,858 on or before July 13, 2026 plus interest at 6% per annum. The BHLP Note was also convertible into common stock, in whole, at any time before maturity at the option of the holder at the greater of $0.06 per share or 50% of the price per share of the next qualified financing which is defined as $500,000 or greater. Effective August 31, 2016, the principal amount of the BHLP Note was amended to include an additional $5,500 loaned to the Company, on the same terms. On November 28, 2016, the Company completed its qualified financing at $1.50 per share which established the conversion price per share for the BHLP Note of $0.75 per share, resulting in the principal amount of the BHLP Note being convertible into 263,144 shares of Class B Common Stock. As such, November 28, 2016 became the "commitment date" for determining the value of the BHLP Note conversion feature. Because there had been no trading in the Company's common stock since July 2014, other than the purchase by Berrard Holdings of 99.5% of the outstanding shares in a single transaction, the Company used the Monte Carlo simulation to determine the intrinsic value of the conversion feature of the BHLP Note, which resulted in a value in excess of the principal amount of the BHLP Note. Thus, the Company recorded a note discount of $197,358 with the corresponding amount as an addition to paid in capital. This note discount was amortized to interest expense until the scheduled maturity of the BHLP Note in July 2026 or until it was converted using the effective interest method. On March 31, 2017, the Company issued 275,312 shares of Class B Common Stock upon full conversion of the BHLP Note, having an aggregate principal amount, including accrued interest, of $206,484 and a conversion price of $0.75 per share. In connection with the conversion of the BHLP Note, the remaining debt discount of $196,076 was charged to interest expense in the Consolidated statements of operations and the related deferred tax liability was credited to Additional paid in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
