As of June 30, 2022 we had the following issued and outstanding securities: ● 41,625,331 shares of common stock; ● 4,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; ● 1,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; ● 2,595,270 warrants to purchase shares of our common stock; ● 6,722,500 options to purchase shares of our common stock; and ● $2,950,000 principal amount of convertible promissory notes convertible into 55,500,000 shares of common stock. Common Stock In September 2020, the Company commenced a $4.0 million private offering of up to 8,000,000 Units (“Units”) at a price of $0.50 per Unit, which private offering ended April 30, 2021. Each Unit consists of (a) two shares of common stock; and (b) one warrant, entitling the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 at any time through August 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2020, the Company sold 2,080,000 Units in the private offering for gross proceeds of $1,040,000 with offering costs of $154,965 resulting in net proceeds of $885,035. From January 1, 2021 through April 30, 2021, the Company sold an additional 200,000 Units for gross proceeds of $100,000 with offering costs of $13,105 resulting in net proceeds of $86,895. The terms of this offering provided that, if during the one-year period from the final closing of the offering, the Company undertakes a subsequent private offering of its equity, equity equivalent or debt securities (“Subsequent Offering”), the investor will be entitled to exchange their Units purchased in the offering for an equivalent dollar amount of securities sold in the Subsequent Offering (based on the respective offering prices). The Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors which states, among other things, that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement covering, among other things, the resale of all or such portion of the registrable securities that are not then registered on an effective registration statement. As of September 30, 2021, all Unit holders converted their Units into Series A Preferred Shares. Preferred Stock On October 13, 2017, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company which authorized preferred stock consisting of 5,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, issuable from time to time in one or more series. On May 10, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation designating 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. On May 11, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the Wit Trust, pursuant to which the Company contemporaneously sold to the Wit Trust an aggregate of (a) 2,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares; and (b) 1,000,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Shares”) in exchange for (i) the payment of $2,000,000 (including $302,500 principal plus accrued but unpaid interest in bridge financing provided by the Wit Trust to the Company during April 2021); and (ii) the surrender by the Wit Trust to the Company of 2,000,000 Units, in accordance with the terms of the subscription agreements for the purchase of the Units entered into by the Wit Trust and the Company in September and October 2020. As a result of the transaction and the voting rights accorded the Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares as set forth below, the Wit Trust then held approximately eighty eight percent (88%) of the voting power of the Company and accordingly, a “Change in Control” occurred. On September 30, 2021, the Company completed a private offering which commenced on August 5, 2021 of Series A Preferred Shares to certain investors, pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 2,000,000 Series A Preferred Shares at a purchase price of $1.00 per share (“2021 Private Placement”) in exchange for (i) the payment of $1,860,000 (including $1,644,068.49 principal plus accrued but unpaid interest in bridge financing provided by certain investors during April, July and August 2021 upon the conversion of the investors’ secured convertible promissory notes, and conversion of an account payable); and (ii) the surrender of 280,000 Units, in accordance with the terms of the subscription agreements for the purchase of the Units entered into by certain investors and the Company in February through April 2021. The investors in the 2021 Private Placement included: Mr. Johnson upon the conversion of $50,000 promissory note; Mr. Pino upon the conversion of $25,000 promissory note; Mr. Vickers upon conversion of $50,000 promissory note and accounts payable; Kuno van der Post, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Dr. van der Post”), in the amount of $50,000, and; the Wit Trust, in the amount of $65,931.51 and upon conversion of $1,500,000 secured convertible promissory notes and $19,068.49 in accrued and unpaid interest. Series A Convertible Preferred Stock The Series A Preferred Shares have a stated value of $1.00 per share. Each Series A Preferred Share is convertible into the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder thereof at a conversion rate of $0.05 per share of common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, other recapitalizations and similar events, as well as in the event of issuance by the Company of shares of common stock or securities exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock at an effective price per share less than the conversion rate then in effect (other than certain customary exceptions). In respect of rights to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the Series A Preferred Shares rank (a) junior to the Company’s Series B Preferred Shares; and (b) senior to (i) the Company’s common stock and any other class or series of stock (including other series of Preferred Stock) of the Company (collectively, “Junior Stock”). From and after the date of the issuance of Series A Preferred Shares, dividends at the rate per annum of eight percent (8%), compounded annually, accrue daily on the stated value (“Series A Accruing Dividends”). Series A Accruing Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and shall be cumulative; provided, however, such Series A Accruing Dividends shall be payable only when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors and the Company shall be under no obligation to pay such Series A Accruing Dividends except as set forth herein. The Company shall not declare, pay or set aside any dividends on shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Company (other than dividends on (a) shares of Series B Preferred Shares; and (b) common stock payable in shares of common stock) unless (in addition to the obtaining of any consents required elsewhere in the Articles of Incorporation) the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a dividend on each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Share in an amount at least equal to the sum of (a) the amount of the aggregate Series A Accruing Dividends then accrued on such Series A Preferred Shares and not previously paid; and (b) (i) in the case of a dividend on common stock or any class or series that is convertible into common stock, that dividend per Series A Preferred Share as would equal the product of (A) the dividend payable on each share of such class or series determined, if applicable, as if all shares of such class or series had been converted into common stock; and (B) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of a Series A Preferred Share, in each case calculated on the record date for determination of holders entitled to receive such dividend; or (ii) in the case of a dividend on any class or series that is not convertible into common stock, at a rate per Series A Preferred Share determined by (A) dividing the amount of the dividend payable on each share of such class or series of capital stock by the original issuance price of such class or series of capital stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to such class or series); and (B) multiplying such fraction by an amount equal to the stated value of the Series A Preferred Shares; provided, that if the Company declares, pays or sets aside, on the same date, a dividend on shares of more than one class or series of capital stock of the Company, the dividend payable to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall be calculated based upon the dividend on the class or series of capital stock that would result in the highest Series A Preferred Share dividend. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or any deemed liquidation event, (collectively, a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, after payment to all holders of Series B Preferred Shares of a liquidation preference equal to the aggregate amount of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the stated value of the Series B Preferred Shares and the amount of the accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Shares, but prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Junior Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an aggregate amount per share equal to the stated value of the Series A Preferred Shares and the accrued but unpaid dividends thereon. After the payment to all holders of Series B Preferred Shares of a liquidation preference equal to the aggregate amount of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the stated value of the Series B Preferred Shares and the amount of the accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Shares and to all holders of the Series A Preferred Shares the full liquidation preference hereunder, the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders shall be distributed among the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Shares and Junior Stock, pro rata, on an “as converted basis,” determined immediately prior to such Liquidation Event, and the Series A Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in such distribution of the remaining assets of the Company. The Series A Preferred Shares shall vote together with holders of Series B Preferred Shares and holders of common stock as a single class on all matters brought to a vote of shareholders. Each Series A Preferred Share shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes as equal the number of shares of common stock then issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Share. The Series A Preferred Shares also contain protective provisions which provide that the Company shall not undertake certain transactions without the prior approval of the holder(s) of a majority of the Series A Preferred Shares. Series B Convertible Preferred Stock The Series B Preferred Shares have a stated value of $1.00 per share. Each Series B Preferred Share is convertible into common stock at the option of the holder thereof at a conversion rate of $0.20 per share of common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, other recapitalizations and similar events, as well as in the event of issuance by the Company of shares of common stock or securities exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock at an effective price per share less than the conversion rate then in effect (other than certain customary exceptions). In respect of rights to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the Series B Preferred Shares rank senior to the (a) Series A Preferred Shares; (b) the Company’s common stock and any other class or series of Junior Stock. From and after the date of the issuance of Series B Preferred Shares, dividends at the rate per annum of eight percent (8%), compounded annually, accrue daily on the stated value (“Series B Accruing Dividends”). Series B Accruing Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and shall be cumulative; provided, however, such Series B Accruing Dividends shall be payable only when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors and the Company shall be under no obligation to pay such Series B Accruing Dividends except as set forth herein. The Company shall not declare, pay or set aside any dividends on shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Company (other than dividends on (a) shares of Series B Preferred Shares; and (b) common stock payable in shares of common stock) unless (in addition to the obtaining of any consents required elsewhere in the Articles of Incorporation) the holders of the Series B Preferred Shares then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a dividend on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Share in an amount at least equal to the sum of (a) the amount of the aggregate Series B Accruing Dividends then accrued on such Series B Preferred Shares and not previously paid; and (b) (i) in the case of a dividend on common stock or any class or series that is convertible into common stock, that dividend per Series B Preferred Share as would equal the product of (A) the dividend payable on each share of such class or series determined, if applicable, as if all shares of such class or series had been converted into common stock; and (B) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of a Series B Preferred Share, in each case calculated on the record date for determination of holders entitled to receive such dividend; or (ii) in the case of a dividend on any class or series that is not convertible into common stock, at a rate per Series B Preferred Share determined by (A) dividing the amount of the dividend payable on each share of such class or series of capital stock by the original issuance price of such class or series of capital stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to such class or series); and (B) multiplying such fraction by an amount equal to the stated value of the Series B Preferred Shares; provided, that if the Company declares, pays or sets aside, on the same date, a dividend on shares of more than one class or series of capital stock of the Company, the dividend payable to the holders of Series B Preferred Shares shall be calculated based upon the dividend on the class or series of capital stock that would result in the highest Series B Preferred Share dividend. In the event of a Liquidation Event, the holders of Series B Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Junior Stock (including Series A Preferred Shares), a liquidation preference equal to the aggregate amount of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the stated value of the Series B Preferred Shares and the amount of the accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Shares. After the payment to all holders of Series B Preferred Shares of such liquidation preference and to all holders of the Series A Preferred Shares their full liquidation preference, the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders shall be distributed among the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Shares and Junior Stock other than Series A Preferred Shares, pro rata, on an “as converted basis,” as applicable. The Series B Preferred Shares shall vote together with holders of Series A Preferred Shares and holders of common stock as a single class on all matters brought to a vote of shareholders. Each Series B Preferred Share shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes as equal the number of shares of common stock then issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Share multiplied by 50. The Series B Preferred Shares also contain protective provisions which provide that the Company shall not undertake certain transactions without the prior approval of the holder of the Series B Preferred Shares.
