NOTE 12 – CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

 

On January 29, 2018, the Company issued a total of 5,973 units of 8% unsecured convertible debentures. Each unit consists of one convertible debenture with a principal face value of $1,000 and 250 warrants. The gross proceeds were $5,973,000. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.80 per warrant for a period of 24 months. The convertible debentures have a maturity date of 36 months from issuance. Simple interest will be paid at a rate of 8% per annum in arrears until maturity or until conversion. The principal amount of the debentures and any accrued interest thereon are convertible at the option of the holder into common shares of the Company at any time at a conversion price of $0.60 per share.

 

In addition to the warrants associated with the convertible debentures, the Company issued an additional 597,300 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company as offering costs representing an equivalent of 6% of the fully converted debentures. The warrants are exercisable at $0.60 per share for a period of two years.

 

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued three separate debentures under the same terms for additional cash proceeds of $610,000. The additional debentures carry an additional 152,500 warrants to purchase additional common shares of the Company at $0.80 per share. Additionally, the outstanding principal and interest may be converted to common stock of the Company at $0.60 per share.

 

During the six month quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company also issued nineteen additional debentures under the same terms for additional cash proceeds of $374,000. The additional debentures carry an additional 187,000 warrants to purchase additional common shares of the Company at $0.80 per share. Additionally, the outstanding principal and interest may be converted to common stock of the Company at $0.60 per share.

 

Associated with the issuance of the convertible debentures, the Company incurred cash-based issuance costs of $702,963, issued common shares valued at $1,414,907 and warrants to purchase additional shares of common stock valued at $1,265,385 for total debt issuance costs of $3,383,255. The debt issuance costs were recorded as a discount to the carrying value of the convertible debentures. The warrants associated with the debt issue costs were valued using a Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:

 

Expected term of options granted   2 years 
Expected volatility   223%
Risk-free interest rate   2.49%
Expected dividend yield   0%

 

The Company separately assessed the value of the detachable warrants and conversion features of the convertible debentures. The Company separately initially valued the detachable warrants issued with the convertible debentures at $3,351,160 using a Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:

 

Expected term of options granted  2 years 
Expected volatility   211 - 223%
Risk-free interest rate   2.09 - 2.25%
Expected dividend yield   0%

 

Additionally, the outstanding principal on convertible debentures totaling $6,957,000 may be converted into common stock of the Company at $0.60 per share for a total of 11,595,000 shares. Due to the variable conversion features of the outstanding convertible notes payable as discussed in Note 7 – Convertible Notes Payable, the Company cannot ascertain there will be adequate unissued authorized common shares to fulfill all share-based obligations. As a result, the warrants issued in connection with the convertible debentures are not afforded equity treatment and were recorded as a derivative liability upon initial measurement. The total initial measurement of warrants issued with the convertible debentures was $4,616,545 of which $4,465,131 was recorded as a debt discount and, when combined with debt issuance costs, represents a total debt discount of $6,583,000.

 

As of March 31, 2019 the Company has amortized $698,521 of the total outstanding debt discount leaving an unamortized debt discount of $3,484,269. The remaining debt discount will be amortized to interest expense over the expected life of the note. There was $5,183,000 of principal and accrued interest totaling $446,427 outstanding as of March 31, 2019.
