Subsequent Events.
 
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the filing of this Annual Report and management noted the following for disclosure.
 
Lincoln Park Capital Purchase of Shares and New Agreement
 
From
January 1, 2020,
through the date of this Report, we have sold
1,398,563
shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park pursuant to the LPC Purchase Agreement (see Note
3
), and received
$287,965
in net proceeds. In conjunction with these issuances, we have issued Lincoln Park
14,080
“additional commitment shares”.
 
On
March 30
,
2020,
we executed a new Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park, which is very similar to the existing LPC Purchase Agreement, except that it improves the terms of the facility to allow the company to secure more capital as it elects. Lincoln Park also agreed to purchase
1,785,715
 shares of common stock and an immediate investment of
$250,000.
  The new purchase agreement will allow for up to
$10,250,000
to be accessible to the company, at its sole election, over the next
three
years. The Company also issued
2,928,571
shares to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee equal to
4%
of the amount committed.
 
Chief Financial Officer Contract Extension
 
On
February 25, 2020,
BioLargo, Inc. (“we”, or the “Company”) and our Chief Financial Officer Charles K. Dargan, II formally agreed to extend the engagement agreement dated
February 1, 2008 (
the “Engagement Agreement”, which had been previously extended multiple times), pursuant to which Mr. Dargan has been and continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Engagement Extension Agreement dated as of
February 25, 2020 (
the “Engagement Extension Agreement”) provides for an additional term to begin retroactively on
October 1, 2019,
and to expire
January 31, 2021 (
the “Extended Term”).
 
As the sole compensation for the Extended Term, Mr. Dargan was issued an option (“Option”) to purchase
25,000
shares of the Company’s common stock for each month during the Extended Term (thus, an option to purchase
400,000
shares reflecting an extended term of
16
months). The Option vests over the period of the Extended Term, with
75,000
shares having vested as of
December 31, 2019,
and the remaining shares to vest
25,000
shares monthly beginning
January 31, 2020,
and each month thereafter, so long as the agreement is in full force and effect. The Option is exercisable at
$0.21
per share, the closing price of BioLargo’s common stock on
February 25, 2020,
expires
ten
years from the grant date, and was issued pursuant to the Company’s
2018
Equity Incentive Plan.
 
The Option is Mr. Dargan’s sole compensation for the Extended Term. As was the case in all prior terms of his engagement, there is
no
cash component of his compensation for the Extended Term. Mr. Dargan is eligible to be reimbursed for business expenses he incurs in connection with the performance of his services as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (although he has made
no
such requests for reimbursement in the past). All other provisions of the Engagement Agreement
not
expressly amended pursuant to the Engagement Extension Agreement remain the same, including provisions regarding indemnification and arbitration of disputes.

March 10, 2020,

shares of our common stock for
$350,000.

$100,000
into the South Korean joint venture (Odin Co. Ltd.), along with

Coronavirus – COVID-
19
Pandemic
 
Uncertainties surrounding the effects of the coronavirus, particularly potential diversion of time and resources of federal government entities which make up a significant concentration of our customer base, could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial results.  The extent of the impact of COVID-
19
on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, impact on our customers, employees and vendors all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.  A material disruption in our workplace as a result of the coronavirus could affect our ability to carry on our business operations in the ordinary course and
may
require additional cost and effort should our employees
not
be able to be physically on-premises.
