Secured Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement
On March 14, 2024, the Company consummated the sale to YA II PN, Ltd. (“YA II”, the "Buyer") of a new Secured Convertible Debenture in a private placement pursuant to that certain Secured Debenture Purchase Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “SDPA”), dated as of October 25, 2022 (the “First Closing Date”), as amended by the First Amendment to Secured Debenture Purchase Agreement of March 30, 2023, as further amended by the Second Amendment to Secured Debenture Purchase Agreement of April 17, 2023, as further amended by the Third Amendment to Secured Debenture Purchase Agreement of May 1, 2023, and as further amended by the previously reported Fourth Amendment to Secured Debenture Purchase Agreement of July 13, 2023. This new Secured Convertible Debenture is for a purchase price of $898,032. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Fourth Amended SDPA and this new Secured Convertible Debenture, the Company promises to pay to the Buyer $1,075,000 on October 14, 2024, (a) subject to earlier redemption at the Company’s option and (b) subject to acceleration at the holder’s option upon an event of default described in the Debenture. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal Amount hereof at an annual rate equal to 8% (“Interest Rate”); provided that such Interest Rate shall be increased to 18% upon an Event of Default.
Upon an event of default, the holder of this new Secured Convertible Debenture is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding principle and accrued interest into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), at a conversion price per share equal to the lower of (i) $1.21 per share (the “Fixed Price”) or (ii) 90% of the lowest daily VWAP during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date (the “Variable Price”) or other date of determination (the “Variable Measurement Period”), which solely in the case of the Variable Price shall not be lower than the Floor Price of $0.202. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the other terms and conditions of this Debenture. This new Secured Convertible Debenture contains a standard “buy-in” provision in the event that the Company fails to shares within three trading days after receipt of a notice of conversion, and a standard “blocker” provision that limits the right to convert any portion of this new Debenture to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion the holder together with its affiliates would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
The proceeds of this new Secured Convertible Debenture have been used to pay the fees associated with audit, tax, and legal opinions related to the Company's public filings.
The foregoing are only summaries of the material terms of the SDPA and this new Secured Convertible Debenture, and do not purport to be complete descriptions of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and such summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements, which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
