The promissory note has a term of three years and accrues interest at the Wall Street Journal prime rate.

The promissory note contains contingent features, including an option that requires Above Food to cause its parent entity, Above Food Ingredients Inc. (“Parent Company”), to issue to the Company publicly traded stock of Parent Company in exchange for the cancellation of a portion of the principal of the promissory note, as well as default provisions.
