NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE TO RELATED AND UNRELATED PARTIES  

 

Working Capital Loan with Directors

 

On January 4, 2021, the Company entered a $750,000 working capital loan agreement with Directors, Stewart Wallach and Jeffrey Postal. The short-term facility ended June 30, 2021 (“Initial Period’). There were no advances taken by the Company on this working capital loan agreement.

 

In consideration for the Lenders providing the loan under this Agreement for the Initial Period and agreeing to a below market rate of interest, and as payment of a finance fee for the loan on an unsecured basis, the Company issued to the Lenders the following securities 7,500 shares of the Company’s Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Shares”) issued to each Lender. The Preferred Shares shall have the appropriate restrictive legends. Each Preferred Share converts into 66.66 shares of Common Stock at option of Lender. The Preferred Shares and any shares of Common Stock issued under the loan agreement are “restricted” securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Preferred Shares have no further rights, preferences, or privileges. The fair value of the Preferred Shares was determined to be $48,996 based on the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion and the market price of the Common Stock on the date the working capital loan agreement was executed. The Company amortized the $48,996 Finance Fee into interest expense over the six months of the agreement. See Note 5 – Stock Transactions.
