4. EQUITY INVESTMENT AND ROYALTIES
 

On March 21, 2019, the Company entered an agreement with Cell MedX Corp. ("CMXC") to purchase the direct rights to distribute the eBalance device from CMXC. On January 29, 2020 the Company and CMXC entered a Buyback agreement to sell the exclusive distribution rights to the eBalance microcurrent device back to CMXC.
 

The sales price included a retained royalty on future sales of the eBalance device capped at US$507,000 and share purchase warrants for 2,000,000 shares of CMXC of which 1,000,000 is exercisable at $0.50 and 1,000,000 exercisable at $1.00. As at March 31, 2020, the Company's equity investment consists of 2,000,000 share purchase warrants. Each CMXC's warrant is exercisable for a period of three years, expiring on January 31, 2023. CMXC has the right to accelerate the expire date of the warrants based on the trading price of CMXC's shares.
 

As at March 31, 2020, the fair value of the equity investment was calculated to be $417,537 based on the market price of $0.26 per CMXC's common share using a Black Scholes Options Pricing model with the following assumptions:
 

Assumptions:

During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, no CMXC warrants were sold and $ realized gain or loss from sale of equity investment was realized.
