Purchase Agreement. On April 21, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Cameron Bridge LLC, Target Capital LLC, and Walleye Opportunities Master Fund Ltd. (collectively the “Investors”), whereby the Investors purchased from the Company, and the Company issued, an aggregate principal amount of $4,885,353 of 15% original issue discount convertible promissory notes (each, a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”). In December 2023, all of the principal balance plus accrued interest was converted into common shares and pre-funded warrants, resulting in a loss on settlement of debt of approximately 977,000.

 

Convertible Note A.

In April 2022, the Company issued an unsecured 36-month seller note to the Chief Executive Officer of Boston Solar (“Minority Owner”) in the amount of $1,940,423 payable in shares of the Company’s common stock based on the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock over the 60 trading days prior to April 21, 2022. The payments begin six months after April 21, 2022 and are paid quarterly over 30 months. The fair value of the note was determined to be $1,252,272. The difference between the stated value and the fair value was being amortized to interest expense over the 36-month period. On January 1, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with the Minority Owner to purchase the Minority Owner’s 19.9% interest in Boston Solar in exchange for: (i) a six (6) month convertible note in the amount $275,000; and (ii) a twelve (12) month convertible note in the amount $275,000 (Seller Convertible Notes below).  Additionally, the Company agreed to convert the Seller Note Payable in Shares (which is owned by the Minority Owner) into common shares of the Company at a price of $3.50 per share.  Immediately following the transaction, the Company increased its ownership in Boston Solar to 100% resulting in a gain on settlement of debt of approximately $857,000.

 

Seller Convertible Notes. On January 1, 2024, the Company entered into an unsecured six-month convertible note in the amount of $275,000, and a twelve-month convertible note in the amount of $275,000, with a former Minority Owner. The twelve month note includes $25,000 of prepaid interest added to the principal amount due. In regard to the six month note the Minority Owner: (i) has the option to convert in to common shares using a five day VWAP at any period starting February 16, 2024, and prior to maturity date; and (ii) at the maturity date, any amount of the note still outstanding will automatically convert using the five day VWAP prior to the maturity date. In regards to the twelve month note : (i) the Company can repay the full $300,000 at any time prior to the maturity date; (ii) if the Company completes a public offering greater than $10 million prior to the maturity date, a condition of the use of proceeds will be to pay any outstanding balance; (iii) after 180 days the Minority Owner shall have the option to convert portions of the note into common stock of the Company with conversions calculated using the five day VWAP prior to the notice of conversion, and the minimum amount of conversion shall be at least $100,000; and (iv) if the note has not been paid or satisfied prior to the maturity date, it will automatically convert in to common shares of the Company with such conversion calculated using the five day VWAP prior to the maturity date. In connection with the notes, the Company recorded discounts totaling $468,938 resulting from the recognition of embedded derivative liabilities (Note 2). The discount is being amortized over the life of the note. On June 30, 2024, the six-month note was automatically converted into 6,650 shares of common stock and 9,823 pre-funded warrants, resulting in a loss on conversion of $163,000.

 

Assignment Note: In January 2024 the Company entered into an assignment of promissory note with a former owner of Boston Solar (see Seller Note Payable) and a third party, in which the former owner assigned the unsecured Seller Note Payable, in the amount of $817,000, to the third party and the third party obtained conversion rights from the Company. In connection with the note, the Company recorded a discount totaling $817,000 resulting from the recognition of an embedded derivative liability (Note 2). During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the third party converted $703,168 into 26,770 common shares of the Company. During April 2024, the remaining balance of the note, totaling $125,947, was converted into 8,099 shares of common stock.

Convertible Notes F and G. On February 23, 2024, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements, that were effective February 27, 2024, with 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC, an accredited investor (“DL”) pursuant to which the Company issued to DL a Promissory Note (“Convertible Note F”) in the aggregate principal amount of $156,000 with an original issue discount of $26,000 and issuance costs of $5,000, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $125,000, and a second Promissory Note (“Convertible Note G”) in the aggregate principal amount of $163,585 with an original issue discount of $18,820 and issuance costs of $5,000, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $139,765. The DL Notes have maturity dates of November 30, 2024, and the Company has agreed to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Convertible Note F at the rate of 15% per annum, and 12% per annum on the Convertible Note G , from the date on which the DL Notes were issued, respectively. A one-time interest charge of 15% or $23,400, and 12% or $19,630 were applied on the issuance dates of the Convertible Note F and Convertible Note G , respectively, to the principal amounts owed under the DL Notes. The Company has right to accelerate payments or prepay in full the DL Notes at any time with no prepayment penalty. The DL Notes are unsecured. The outstanding principal amount of the DL Notes may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) in the event of default (missed payment). In the event of default under the DL Notes, DL may convert the DL Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 75% of the lowest trading price during the 10-day period immediately preceding the date of conversion. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, the DL Notes shall become immediately due and payable, and the Company shall pay to DL in full satisfaction of its obligations under the DL Notes, and the Default Amount (as defined in the DL Notes) as set forth in the DL Notes. In no event shall DL be allowed to affect a conversion of the DL Notes into Common Stock if such conversion, along with all other shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by DL and its affiliates would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company. The issuances of the DL Notes were made in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Act. During the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred an additional $30,536 in default penalties on Convertible Note G , which were added to the principal balance. From October to November 2024, DL converted Convertible Note F and Convertible Note G  into 15,342,038 shares of common stock. At December 31, 2024, there is no principal balance outstanding.
