Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Investor committed to purchase, subject to certain restrictions and conditions, up to $10,000,000 worth of the Company’s common stock, over a period of 36 months from the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the resale of shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. The Company agreed to initially reserve 20,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the Investment Agreement. In the event the Company cannot register a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Company will use its best efforts to authorize and reserve for issuance the number of shares required for the Company to perform its obligations in connection with the Investment Agreement as soon as reasonable practical.

 

The Company may in its discretion draw on the facility from time to time, as and when the Company determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum number of shares that the Company is entitled to put to the Investor in any one draw down notice shall not exceed shares with a purchase price of $250,000 or 200% of the average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the Company’s Common Stock for the three (3) Trading Days prior to the applicable put notice date multiplied by the average of the three (3) daily closing prices immediately preceding the put date, calculated in accordance with the Investment Agreement. The Company may deliver a notice for a subsequent put from time to time, after the pricing period for the prior put has been completed.

 

The purchase price shall be set at ninety-four percent (94%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately following the put notice date. On each put notice submitted to the Investor by the Company, the Company shall specify a suspension price for that put. In the event the price of Company’s Common Stock falls below the suspension price, the put shall be temporarily suspended. The put shall resume at such time the price of the Company’s Common Stock is above the suspension price, provided the dates for the pricing period for that particular put are still valid. In the event the pricing period has been complete, any shares above the suspension price due to the Investor shall be sold to the Investor by the Company at the suspension price under the terms of the Investment Agreement. The suspension price for a put may not be changed by the Company once submitted to the Investor.

 

There are put restrictions applied on days between the draw down notice date and the closing date with respect to that particular put. During such time, the Company shall not be entitled to deliver another draw down notice. In addition, the Investor will not be obligated to purchase shares if the Investor’s total number of shares beneficially held at that time would exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, the Company is not permitted to draw on the facility unless there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the shares.

 

The Investment Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties of each of the parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made for purposes of the Investment Agreement and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Investment Agreement. The Investment Agreement further provides that the Company and the Investor are each entitled to customary indemnification from the other for, among other things, any losses or liabilities they may suffer as a result of any breach by the other party of any provisions of the Investment Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). Investor should read the Investment Agreement together with the other information concerning the Company that the Company publicly files in reports and statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file one or more registrations statements with the SEC within twenty-one (21) days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement to register the resale by the Investor of the shares of common stock issued or issuable under the Investment Agreement. In addition, the Company is obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days after the registration statement is filed.

 

This Investment Agreement was amended on August 3, 2017 to allow for the reservation of 65,445,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for issuance to the Investor pursuant to the corrected Investment Agreement.

 

The Company has filed a S-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to include 7,936,600 shares of its Common Stock for issuance in connection with the first tranche of the Equity Line Facility. The S-1 Registration Statement, as amended, was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 11, 2018. The Company has not accessed the Equity Line Facility and intends to do so only when the Company’s stock prices reach levels that its management deems appropriate.
