DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND RESTATEMENT (AS RESTATED) | 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND RESTATEMENT (AS RESTATED) Restatement of Previously Issued Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 180 Life Sciences Corp., formerly known as KBL Merger Corp, IV (the "Company") has determined that certain liabilities were not recorded and certain contingent fees related to the Business Combination (defined below), which closed on November 6, 2020, were not disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 that were included in the Company's June 30, 2020 Form 10-Q, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 20, 2020. The financial statements were restated to record certain previously unrecorded liabilities and other transactions, see Note 8 – Accrued Expenses (as restated) and Note 13 – Comparison of Restated Financial Statements to Financial Statements as Previously Reported for additional information. In addition, the Commitment and Contingencies footnote (Note 10) has been restated to disclose the contingent fees that would not be due and payable unless and until the Business Combination closes. Description of Organization and Business Operations The Company was a blank check company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 7, 2016. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Subsequent Event - Business Combination On November 6, 2020 (the "Closing Date"), the Company consummated the previously announced business combination (the "Business Combination") following a special meeting of stockholders held on November 5, 2020, where the stockholders of KBL Merger Corp. IV (the "Company" or, prior to the closing of the Business Combination, sometimes referred to herein as "KBL") considered and approved, among other matters, a proposal to adopt that certain Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the "Business Combination Agreement"), dated as of July 25, 2019, entered into by and among the Company, KBL Merger Sub, Inc. ("Merger Sub"), 180 Life Sciences Corp. ("180"), Katexco Pharmaceuticals Corp. ("Katexco"), CannBioRex Pharmaceuticals Corp. ("CBR Pharma"), 180 Therapeutics L.P. ("180 LP" and together with Katexco and CBR Pharma, the "180 Subsidiaries" and, together with 180, the "180 Parties"), and Lawrence Pemble, in his capacity as representative of the stockholders of the 180 Parties (the "Stockholder Representative"). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, Merger Sub merged with and into 180, with 180 continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). The Merger became effective on November 6, 2020 (such time, the "Effective Time", and the closing of the Merger being referred to herein as the "Closing"). In connection with, and prior to, the Closing, 180 filed a Certificate of Amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation in Delaware to change its name to 180 Life Corp. and KBL Merger Corp. IV changed its name to 180 Life Sciences Corp. At the Effective Time, each share of 180 common stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time was automatically converted into the right to receive 168.3784 shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock"; and such shares of Common Stock issuable to the common stockholders of 180 pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the "Merger Consideration Shares"). An aggregate of 15,736,438 shares of Common Stock are issuable to the common stockholders of 180 as Merger Consideration Shares, including the Escrow Shares (as defined below). Also, at the Effective Time, each share of 180 preferred stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive one Class C Special Voting Share of the Company, or one Class K Special Voting Share of the Company, as applicable (such shares, the "Special Voting Shares"). The Special Voting Shares entitle the holder thereof to an aggregate number of votes, on any particular matter, proposition or question, equal to the number of Exchangeable Shares (as defined below) of each of CannBioRex Purchaseco ULC and Katexco Purchaseco ULC, Canadian subsidiaries of 180, respectively, that are outstanding from time to time. As a result of the Merger, the existing exchangeable shares (collectively, the "Exchangeable Shares") of CannBioRex Purchaseco ULC and/or Katexco Purchaseco ULC were adjusted in accordance with the share provisions in the articles of CannBioRex Purchaseco ULC or Katexco Purchaseco ULC, as applicable, governing the Exchangeable Shares such that they were multiplied by the exchange ratio for the Merger and became exchangeable into shares of Common Stock. The Exchangeable Shares entitle the holders to dividends and other rights that are substantially economically equivalent to those of holders of Common Stock, and holders of Exchangeable Shares have the right to vote at meetings of the stockholders of the Company. An aggregate of 1,763,562 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares upon the exchange thereof. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, 1,050,000 of the Merger Consideration Shares (such shares, the "Escrow Shares") were deposited into an escrow account (the "Escrow Account") to serve as security for, and the exclusive source of payment of, the Company's indemnity rights under the Business Combination Agreement. As a result of the Business Combination, the former shareholders of 180 became the controlling shareholders of the Company and 180 became a subsidiary of the Company. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby 180 is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Further information regarding the Business Combination is set forth in (i) the proxy statement / prospectus included in the registration statement on form S-4 (File No. 333-234650), as amended and supplemented, originally filed with the SEC on November 12, 2019 and declared effective by the SEC on October 9, 2020; and (ii) the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 12, 2020. In connection with the Closing, the Company withdrew $9,006,493 of funds from the Trust Account (as defined below) to fund the redemptions of 816,461 shares. Business Prior to the Business Combination The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Although the Company was not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company was focusing on the healthcare and related wellness industry. The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. Unless stated otherwise, these financial statements contain information about KBL before the Closing of the Business Combination. References to the "Company," "our," "us" or "we" in this report refer to KBL before the Closing of the Business Combination, unless the context suggests otherwise. The Company has one subsidiary, KBL Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Delaware on July 3, 2019 ("Merger Sub") for the purpose of effecting the proposed acquisition of 180 (see Business Combination, above). As of June 30, 2020, the Merger Sub had no activity. At June 30, 2020, the Company had not yet commenced operations. All activity through June 30, 2020 related to the Company's formation, its initial public offering ("Initial Public Offering"), which is described below, identifying a target company for a Business Combination, and the proposed acquisition of 180 (formerly known as CannBioRx Life Sciences Corp.), a Delaware corporation (see Business Combination, above). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds held in trust derived from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement (defined below). The registration statement for the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on June 1, 2017. On June 7, 2017, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit ("Units" and, with respect to the shares of the Company's common stock included in the Units offered, the "Public Shares"), generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000, which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement ("Private Placement") of 450,000 units ("Private Units" and, with respect to the shares of the Company's common stock included in the Private Units offered, the "Private Shares") at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to the Company's sponsor, KBL IV Sponsor LLC (the "Sponsor"), and the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $4,500,000, which is described in Note 3. On June 23, 2017, in connection with the underwriters' election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 1,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit and the sale of an additional 52,500 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $15,525,000. Following the closing, an additional $15,150,000 of net proceeds ($10.10 per Unit) was placed in a trust account ("Trust Account"), resulting in $116,150,000 ($10.10 per Unit) held in the Trust Account. Transaction costs amounted to $7,345,436, consisting of $2,875,000 of underwriting fees, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting fees (see Note 10) and $445,436 of Initial Public Offering costs. Pursuant to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company initially had until December 7, 2018 (the "Initial Date") to consummate a Business Combination, or March 7, 2019 if the Company had executed a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for a Business Combination by the Initial Date but had not completed a Business Combination by such date. Effective November 16, 2018, the Company entered into several non-binding letters of intent with various entities for a potential Business Combination. As a result, the Company extended the time by which it must consummate a Business Combination until March 7, 2019. On March 5, 2019, the Company's stockholders approved to extend the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination until June 7, 2019 (or September 9, 2019 if the Company has executed a definitive agreement for a Business Combination by June 7, 2019) or such earlier date (the "First Extension Amendment", and such later date, the "First Extension Combination Period") as determined by the Company's board of directors (the "Board"). The number of shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Extension Amendment was 5,128,523. The Company paid cash in the aggregate amount of $52,829,304, or approximately $10.30 per share, to redeeming stockholders. As a result of the payment on the shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Extension Amendment, cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account decreased to $65,633,068. In addition, on March 8, 2019, an aggregate of $573,433 was loaned to the Company and deposited into the Trust Account, which amount is equal to $0.09 for each of the 6,371,477 Public Shares that were not redeemed (the "Initial Loan"). The Initial Loan was paid from funds loaned to the Company by the Sponsor in the aggregate amount of $573,433. On June 5, 2019, the Company's stockholders approved to further extend the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination from June 7, 2019 to September 9, 2019 (or December 9, 2019 if the Company has executed a definitive agreement for a Business Combination by September 9, 2019) or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the "Second Extension Amendment"). On July 25, 2019 the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement thereby extending the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination to December 9, 2019. The number of shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Second Extension Amendment was 1,580,762. The Company paid cash in the aggregate amount of $16,476,233, or approximately $10.42 per share, to redeeming stockholders. As a result of the payment on the shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Second Extension Amendment, cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account decreased to $49,993,473. On December 6, 2019, the Company's stockholders approved to further extend the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination from September 9, 2019 (or December 9, 2019 if the Company has executed a definitive agreement for a Business Combination by September 9, 2019) to April 9, 2020 or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the "Third Extension Amendment"). The number of shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Third Extension Amendment was 3,676,448. The Company paid cash in the aggregate amount of $39,121,812, or approximately $10.64 per share, to redeeming stockholders. As a result of the payment on the shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Third Extension Amendment, cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account decreased to $11,857,136 at December 6, 2019. The Sponsor or its designees has agreed to loan the Company $0.0225 for each Public Share that is not redeemed for each calendar month commencing on June 7, 2019, and on the 7th day of each subsequent month, or portion thereof, that is needed by the Company to complete a Business Combination from June 7, 2019 until April 9, 2020 (the "Additional Loans" and, collectively with the Initial Loan, the "Loans"). The Loans will not bear interest and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor or its designees upon consummation of a Business Combination. The Sponsor or its designees will have the sole discretion whether to continue extending Additional Loans for additional calendar months until April 9, 2020 and if the Sponsor determines not to continue extending Additional Loans for additional calendar months, its obligation to extend Additional Loans following such determination will terminate. Through June 30, 2020, an aggregate of $735,889 was deposited into the Trust Account, of which $89,142 was deposited during the six months ended June 30, 2020. On April 8, 2020, the Company's stockholders approved to further extend the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination (the "Fourth Extension Amendment") from April 9, 2020 to July 9, 2020 or such earlier date as determined by the Board. The number of shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Fourth Extension Amendment was 67,665. The Company paid cash in the aggregate amount of $728,884, or approximately $10.77 per share, to redeeming stockholders. As a result of the payment on the shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Fourth Extension Amendment, cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account decreased to $11,273,945 at April 9, 2020. The Company agreed to deposit $0.05217 for each Public Share that is not redeemed for each calendar month commencing on April 9, 2020 that is needed by the Company to complete a Business Combination from April 9, 2020 through June 9, 2020. In July 2020, the Company deposited an aggregate of $163,797 into the Trust Account. On July 9, 2020, the Company's stockholders approved to further extend the period of time for which the Company is required to consummate a Business Combination (the "Fifth Extension Amendment") from July 9, 2020 to November 9, 2020 or such earlier date as determined by the Board (the "Combination Period"). The number of shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Fifth Extension Amendment was 106,186. The Company paid cash in the aggregate amount of $1,160,695, or approximately $10.93 per share, to redeeming stockholders. As a result of the payment on the shares of common stock presented for redemption in connection with the Fifth Extension Amendment, cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account decreased to $10,279,476 at July 9, 2020. Trust Account Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, an amount of $116,150,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Units was placed in the Trust Account and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company. The Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay income taxes, if any, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below. The Company's management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of its Initial Public Offering and Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. The Company will provide holders of the outstanding Public Shares ("public stockholders") with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.10 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company for tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to public stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 10). The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholder (as defined below), officers and directors have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), Private Shares, and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial stockholder, officers and directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a "group" (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares. The Sponsor (the "initial stockholder"), officers and directors agreed not to propose an amendment to the Company's amended and restated article of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of the Company's common stock in conjunction with any such amendment. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There are no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company's Rights, Warrants, Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 3) and the rights underlying the Private Units, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination within the Combination Period. In connection with the redemption of 100% of the Company's outstanding Public Shares for a portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, each holder will receive a full pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company for taxes payable and up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses. The initial stockholder, officers, directors and underwriters agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if they should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 10) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Company's Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.19 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company's indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company's independent registered public accountants), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Going Concern and Liquidity As the Company merged into 180 on November 6, 2020, a going concern and liquidity presentation as a stand-alone company for these restated financial statements as of their filing date is not meaningful.
