(CVP). Pursuant to the SPA, the Company agreed to issue to CVP a Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,657,500 (the Note). On June 6, 2014, the Company executed the SPA with CVP, for the sale of the Company Note in the principal amount of up to $1,657,500 (which includes CVPs legal expenses in the amount of $7,500 and a $150,000 OID) for $1,500,000, consisting of $500,000 paid in cash on June 11, 2014 (the Closing Date), two $250,000 secured promissory notes and two $250,000 promissory notes (the Investor Notes), aggregating $1,000,000, bearing interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The Investor Notes are due 30 months from the Closing Date and may be prepaid, without penalty. Advances received, OID charged and deferred financing costs incurred to CVP are as follows: Date Funded Amount OID Other Convertible Note Issued 6/11/14 $ 500,000 $ 50,000 $ 7,500 $ 557,500 10/15/14 62,500 6,250 68,750 11/17/14 62,500 6,250 68,750 12/19/14 35,000 3,500 38,500 Balances 12/31/14 660,000 60,000 7,500 733,500 3/18/15 65,000 6,500 71,500 4/14/15 22,500 2,250 24,750 4/23/15 25,500 2,550 28,050 5/20/15 30,000 3,000 33,000 6/22/15 20,000 2,000 22,000 9/21/15 45,000 4,500 7,500 57,000 November 2015 28,886 2,889 31,775 12/9/15 270,057 270,057 December 2015 6,250 625 6,875 Balances 12/31/15 $ 928,136 $ 92,814 $ 285,057 $ 1,306,007 The funded amounts in November and December 2015, were made directly to various vendors from CVP. The Company has recorded only the funded amounts and the associated costs as convertible notes payable and has also not recorded the $643,177 remaining balance of the Investor Notes issued by CVP to the Company. On July 27, 2016, the Company received a Notice of Breach of Secured Convertible Promissory Note from the current noteholder regarding the December 2015 installment payment. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the default, the lender elected to multiply the outstanding balance by 125%, or $270,057. The Note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on the date that is 30 months after the Closing Date. The Note may be converted at the option of the holder, on the date that is six months from the Trading Date (defined in the Purchase Agreement as the date on which the Common Stock is first trading on an Eligible Market, but in any event the Company shall cause its Common Stock to be trading on an Eligible Market within nine months of the Closing Date of June 11, 2014) or at any time thereafter at a conversion price of $0.1976. The conversion price is equal to $6,500,000 divided by 33,000,000 (the amount of fully diluted shares of Common Stock of the Company on the date the Company filed its Registration Statement). If the holder funds $1,500,000 and elects to convert the Note into Common Stock, the number of shares issuable upon conversion will be 8,287,500. In the event the Company elects to prepay all or any portion of the Company Note, the Company is required to pay to CVP an amount in cash equal to 125% multiplied by the sum of all principal, interest and any other amounts owing. On July 16, 2015, CVP converted $50,000 of accrued and unpaid interest under the Company Note into 253,846 shares of common stock. The Company also reduced derivative liabilities for the fair value of the conversion of $70,658 and reclassified the amount to additional paid in capital. Initially, the Company determined that the conversion feature of the convertible note did not meet the criteria of an embedded derivative and therefore the conversion feature was not bi-furcated and accounted for as a derivative because the Company was a private company, there was no quoted price and no active market for the Companys common stock. Since the convertible note included an embedded conversion feature that did not qualify to be bi-furcated as a derivative, management evaluated this feature to determine whether it meets the definition of a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) within the scope of ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, and determined that a BCF existed. From January 1, 2015, through July 12, 2015, representing the date prior to the Company becoming a public company, the Company received $163,000 in new funding and increased the Note by $179,300 (including $16,300 of OID) and recorded a discount on the Note in the amount of $179,300, to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the Note The Company became trading as a public Company on July 13, 2015, and on that date the Company determined that the conversion feature of the Note represented an embedded derivative since the Note is convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, on July 13, 2015, the Note was not considered to be conventional debt under ASC 815 and the embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of the derivative instruments for the fundings of the Note that occurred prior to July 13, 2015, were recorded as a liability on July 13, 2015, on the consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the Note. Such discount is being amortized from the date of issuance to the maturity date of the Note. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts are recorded in other income or expenses in the consolidated statements of operations at the end of each quarter, with the offset to the derivative liability on the balance sheet. The embedded feature included in the Note resulted in an additional initial debt discount of $233,500 and initial derivative liability of $1,474,840 and an initial derivative liability expense of $1,241,340 was recorded. Additionally, from July 13, 2015, through the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company received or was the beneficiary of $105,137 in new fundings or direct payments to vendors from CVP and increased the Company Note by $123,151 including $18,014 of OID, to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the Note. The Company recorded an initial derivative liability of $151,535, a discount against the Note in the amount of $98,900, to be amortized into interest expense over the term of the Note and an initial derivative liability expense of $52,635. Lastly, as described above, the Company was in default of the Note and incurred a default penalty of $270,057. The Company recorded an initial discount to reflect the derivative liability associated with the default, in the amount of $205,431. Amortization of the Note discount for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $579,980. The carrying amount of the Note as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, was $774,820 and $357,478, respectively, net of unamortized discounts of $531,187 and $376,022, respectively. As security for the Note, the Companys CEO and COO each pledged to CVP their 50 shares of Class A Preferred Stock (see Note 8). The pledge expired upon the shares of common stock of the Company being publicly traded and listed or designated for quotation on any of The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX, or the OTCQB. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Company was required to deliver the Installment Amount (as defined in the Note) on or before each Installment Date (as defined in the Note) until the Note was repaid. The Company failed to deliver the Installment Amount in June 2015, July 2015 and August 2015 (each, a Breach and collectively, the Breaches). Each such Breach would constitute a separate event of default pursuant to the terms of the Note if so declared by the Lender. On September 10, 2015, the Company entered into a forbearance and standstill agreement (the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement) with CVP and Matt Lee and Sam May, pursuant to which CVP agreed to refrain and forbear temporarily from exercising and enforcing remedies under the Note. Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement, CVP agreed to refrain and forbear from exercising and enforcing its remedies with respect to the Breaches until the earliest occurrence of (a) any breach of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement, or (b) any event of default after the effective date of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement other than the Breaches. Assuming that no additional events of default occur under the Note and no breaches of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement occur, CVP agreed, for a period of 90 days from September 10, 2015 (the Standstill Period), that it will not seek to convert any portion of the outstanding balance of the Note without the Companys prior written consent, nor will the Company be required to deliver any Installment Amount to CVP during the Standstill Period. In addition, CVP agreed that for a period of 180 days following September 10, 2015 (the Modified Conversion Period), CVPs conversion price shall be equal to $0.40 per share, and that during the Modified Conversion Period, CVP will not made any conversions without the Companys prior written consent. Also, any conversion amount applicable to any CVP conversion made during the Modified Conversion Period will automatically be applied toward and reduce the next Installment Amount due and payable to CVP. Upon conclusion of the Modified Conversion Period, CVPs conversion rights set forth in the Note shall revert to the terms and conditions set forth in Note. Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement, the next Installment Date will be the date that is 90 days from the date of the Forbearance and Standstill Agreement and each subsequent Installment Date will be on the same day of each month thereafter until the Notes maturity date. In addition, the Installment Amount due on the next three Installment Dates shall be equal to $50,000. The Company agreed that so long as the Note remains outstanding and the warrant issued to CVP in connection with the Note is not fully exercised or expired pursuant to its terms, the Company will not (i) issue any new shares of Class A preferred stock, (ii) issue any debt, (iii) issue other securities that have redemption rights, rights of first refusal, preemptive rights or similar rights not associated with the Companys common stock, or (iv) consummate any transaction pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) or 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, equity line of credit or financing arrangement or other transaction that involves issuing securities convertible into Company common stock with a conversion price that varies with the market price of the common stock, without CVPs prior written consent. CVP granted to the Company the right to repurchase the Note, the Warrant and the other transaction documents for $978,500 within 90 days of September 10, 2015. CVP also agreed to pay to the Company $5,000, which payment will constitute a partial payment of the Investor Notes. The Company agreed to pay CVP $7,500, which shall be added to and included as part of the outstanding balance of the Note. A summary of the convertible note payable balance as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: 2015 2014 Beginning balance $ 733,500 $ -0- Convertible notes-newly issued 463,450 799,500 Debt default penalty 270,057 Conversion of convertible notes (161,000 ) (66,000 ) Unamortized discount (531,187 ) (376,022 ) Total $ 774,820 $ 357,478 WARRANT The Company also issued a five year warrant to CVP to purchase the number of shares equal to $420,000 divided by 70% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices in the 20 trading days immediately after becoming public (the Market Price). Since the Company was not public and could not determine the Market Price, based on the current discounted cash flow valuation, the Company initially estimated that CVP can purchase 6,000,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.20 per share. As of December 31, 2015, based on the Market Price, the Company estimated the number of shares that CVP can purchase to be 1,636,362. Accounting Standard Codification ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the warrants, certain assumptions were made regarding components of the model, including the closing price of the underlying common stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield, and expected life. Changes to the assumptions could cause significant adjustments to valuation. Since the Company was not public, an estimated a volatility factor utilizing an average of comparable published volatilities of peer companies was utilized. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant for treasury securities of similar maturity. The warrants associated with the Note were initially valued and recorded a derivative liability of $577,100 using the Black-Scholes valuation methodology and the Company also recorded an initial derivative liability expense of $77,100 and a discount to the Note of $500,000. Amortization of the warrant discount for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, was $376,022 and $123,968, respectively. On December 31, 2014, the Company revalued the warrant at $581,373 using the Black- Scholes option pricing model and recorded an additional derivative liability expense of $4,273 for the year ended December 31, 2014. On December 31, 2015, the Company revalued the warrant at $13,700 using the Black- Scholes option pricing model and recorded a credit to derivative liability expense of $567,673 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and reduced the derivative liability on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2015. |
