Series A Preferred

 

On April 25, 2019, in connection with the Share Exchange, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “ Series A COD ”), with the Nevada Secretary of State of the State, designating 300,000 shares of its preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred has a stated value of $100 per share (the “ Series A Stated Value ”). The Series A Preferred rank senior to all of the Company’s outstanding securities. At September 30, 2019, there were a total of 206,248 shares of Series A Preferred outstanding.

 

The Series A Preferred provides the holders with the right to receive a one-time dividend payment equal to 8% of the Series A Stated Value (the “ Series A Dividend ”), which Series A Dividend shall be paid by the Company on the earlier to occur of (i) when declared at the election of the Company, (ii) one year from the date of issuance, or (iii) when a holder elects to convert its shares of Series A Preferred into common stock.

 

Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock equal to the Series A Stated Value, plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, divided by $0.044313, which conversion rate is subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Series A COD. Holders of Series A Preferred are prohibited from converting Series A Preferred into common stock if, as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% (or 9.99% upon the election of the holder prior to the issuance of the Series A Preferred) of the total number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible at the option of the Company, at the same conversion rate set forth above, at such time, if ever, that the Company’s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Company has paid the Series A Dividend. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event (as defined in the Series A COD), the Company shall be required to redeem, in cash, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred at a price equal to the conversion amount;  provided, however , that holders of the Series A Preferred shall have the right to waive, in whole or in part, such right to receive payment upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event.   

 

Holders of the Series A Preferred are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis along with holders of the Company’s common stock on all matters presented to the Company’s stockholders;  provided, however, that the number of votes that any holder, together with its affiliates, may exercise in connection with all of the Company securities held by such holder shall not exceed 9.99% of the voting power of the Company. In addition, pursuant to the Series A COD, the Company shall not take the following actions without obtaining the prior consent of at least a majority of the holders of the outstanding Series A Preferred, voting separately as a single class: (i) amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or bylaws, or file a certificate of designation or certificate of amendment to any series of preferred stock if such action would adversely affect the holders of the Series A Preferred, (ii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred, (iii) create or authorize any series of stock that ranks senior to, or on parity with, the Series A Preferred, (iv) purchase, repurchase or redeem any shares of junior stock, or (v) pay dividends on any junior or parity stock . Furthermore, so long as at least 25% of the Series A Preferred remain outstanding, holders of the Series A Preferred (other than the Direct Investors) shall have a right to appoint two members to the Company’s Board of Directors, and the Board shall not consist of more than five members, unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred have consented to an increase in such number.

 

Series B Preferred

 

On April 26, 2019, in connection with the Share Exchange, the Company filed the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B COD”), with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, designating 1.5 million shares of its preferred stock as Series B Preferred. At the time of the filing of the Series B COD, the Series B Preferred ranked junior to the Series A Preferred and senior to all of the Company’s other outstanding securities.

 

The Series B Preferred was structured to act as a common stock equivalent, and, on June 28, 2019, the Company amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Charter”) to (i) change our corporate name to Charlie’s Holdings, Inc. and (ii) increase the number of shares authorized as common stock from 7.0 billion to 50.0 billion shares. The Amended and Restated Charter was approved by our Board of Directors and holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities on May 8, 2019, and the Amended and Restated Charter was filed with the State of Nevada on June 28, 2019. As a result of the filing of the Amended and Restated Charter and the increase of our authorized common stock to 50.0 billion shares, all 1,396,305 outstanding shares of Series B Preferred automatically converted into a total of 13,963,047,716 shares of common stock in accordance with the Series B COD.

 

At September 30, 2019, no shares of Series B Preferred were outstanding.

 

Prior to the filing of the Amended and Restated Charter, holders of the Series B Preferred were entitled to vote on an as-converted basis along with holders of the Company’s common stock on all matters presented to the Company’s stockholders. In addition, pursuant to the Series B COD, the Company was not permitted to take the following actions without obtaining the prior consent of at least 50% of the holders of the outstanding Series B Preferred, voting separately as a single class: (i) amend the provisions of the Series B COD so as to adversely affect holders of the Series B Preferred, (ii) increase the authorized number of shares of Series B Preferred, or (iii) effect any distribution with respect to junior stock, unless the Company also provides such distribution to holders of the Series B Preferred.

 

Common Stock

 

As noted above, on June 28, 2019, the Company filed the Amended and Restated Charter to change the name of the Company to “Charlie’s Holdings, Inc.” (as mentioned in Note 1), as well as to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance from 7.0 billion shares to 50.0 billion shares.

 

Warrants

 

On April 26, 2019, pursuant to the Share Exchange as described in Notes 1 and 3, the Company issued approximately 4 billion warrants, consisting of the Investor Warrants issued to the new investors and the Direct Investors, and the Placement Agent Warrants issued to Katalyst. The warrants have a 5-year term and an exercise price of $0.0044313, subject to adjustment for anti-dilution events. Due to the exercise features of these warrants they are not indexed to the Company’s own stock and are therefore not afforded equity treatment in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires the Company to assess the fair value of warrant liabilities at each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair value as items of other income or expense (see Note 4).
