2020 Note Issuance

On March 2, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 2,000 units (“Units”), with each Unit consisting of $1,000 in 12% Subordinated Notes (“2020 Notes”) and 40 shares, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000 in Units pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. The principal amount of the 2020 Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, become due and payable on February 28, 2023. Interest on the 2020 Notes will accrue at the rate of 12% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, beginning on June 30, 2020 and the entire outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest due on the 2020 Notes is payable on the Maturity Date. Any accrued but unpaid quarterly installment of interest shall accrue interest at the rate of 14.0% per annum. Any overdue principal and accrued and unpaid interest at the Maturity Date shall accrue a mandatory default penalty of 20% of the outstanding principal balance and an interest rate of 14% per annum from the Maturity Date until paid in full. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to finance the acquisition of Graphic Sciences and intends to use the remaining net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including potentially other future acquisitions. The Company recognized a debt discount of $320,000 for the 80,000 shares issued in conjunction with the Units. The amortization of the debt discount will be recognized over the life of the 2020 Notes as interest expense, and was $8,889 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

2020 Note Conversion

On March 2, 2020, the Company entered into amendments to all of its then-outstanding convertible promissory notes, which were issued by the Company to various related and unrelated investors in 2016, 2017, and 2018. The Note Amendments permitted the Company to convert all of the then-outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest payable with respect to the 2016-2018 Notes into shares of Common Stock upon the same terms as such private placement. Pursuant to the Note Amendments, on March 2, 2020, the Company converted all of the then-outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest payable with respect to the 2016-2018 Notes into the aggregate amount of 1,433,689 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $4.00 per share. Taglich Brothers, Inc. acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Note Conversion, and earned fees in the form of 35,250 shares of Common Stock at a price of $4.00 per share (with such fees relating to the conversion of both the related and unrelated notes).

2018 Notes

On September 20 and September 26, 2018, the Company issued convertible promissory notes in an aggregate amount of $900,000 (“2018 Unrelated Notes”) to unrelated accredited investors (the “2018 Note Investors”). Placement agent and escrow agent fees of $106,740 were paid out of the cash proceeds. The 2018 Unrelated Notes matured on December 31, 2020, and bore interest at an annual rate of interest of 8% until maturity, with interest of 8% payable quarterly beginning January 2, 2019. The 2018 Note Investors had the right, in their sole discretion, to convert the 2018 Unrelated Notes into shares of Company common stock under certain circumstances at a conversion rate of $6.50 per share. These notes were further amended and converted into equity on March 2, 2020, as described further below in this note, see “2020 Note Conversion.”

2017 Notes

On November 17 and November 30, 2017, the Company issued convertible promissory notes in an aggregate amount of $1,760,000 (“2017 Unrelated Notes”) to unrelated accredited investors (the “2017 Note Investors”). Placement agent and escrow agent fees of $174,810 were paid out of the cash proceeds. The 2017 Unrelated Notes had an original maturity date of November 30, 2019. On September 14, 2018, the 2017 Unrelated Notes were amended to mature on December 31, 2020. The amendment was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring with the future undiscounted cash flows being greater than the carrying value of the debt prior to extension. No gain was recorded on the amendment, and a new effective interest rate on the 2017 Unrelated Notes was established based on the carrying value of the debt and the revised future cash flows. The 2017 Unrelated Notes bore interest at an annual rate of interest of 8% until maturity, with interest of 8% payable quarterly beginning July 1, 2018. The 2017 Note Investors had the right, in their sole discretion, to convert the 2017 Unrelated Notes into shares of Company common stock under certain circumstances at a conversion rate of $10.00 per share. These notes were further amended and converted into equity on March 2, 2020, as described further below in this note, see “2020 Note Conversion.”

2016 Notes

The Company issued convertible promissory notes on December 30, 2016 in an aggregate amount of $315,000, and on January 6, 2017 and January 31, 2017 in an aggregate amount of $560,000 (collectively, the “2016 Unrelated Notes”), to unrelated accredited investors (the “2016 Note Investors”). Placement agent and escrow agent fees of $100,255 in the aggregate for those issuances, were paid out of the cash proceeds of those issuances. The 2016 Unrelated Notes bore interest at an annual rate of interest of 12% until maturity, with partial interest of 6% payable quarterly, and an original maturity date of December 31, 2018. The 2016 Note Investors had the right, in their sole discretion, to convert the 2016 Unrelated Notes into shares of Company common stock at a conversion rate of $32.50 per share. On September 17, 2018, the 2016 Unrelated Notes were amended to mature on December 31, 2020, and bore interest at an annual rate of interest of 10% until maturity, with partial interest of 5% payable quarterly. With the amendment, the 2016 Note Investors had the right, in their sole discretion, to convert the 2016 Unrelated Notes into shares of Company common stock at a conversion rate of $20.00 per share. The amendment was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring with the future undiscounted cash flows being greater than the carrying value of the debt prior to extension. No gain was recorded on the amendment, and a new effective interest rate on the 2016 Unrelated Notes was established based on the carrying value of the debt and the revised future cash flows. The Company recognized an initial beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $369,677, plus a fair value adjustment of $56,661 under the troubled debt restructuring accounting. Interest expense recognized on the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of the 2016 Unrelated Notes was $50,703 and $12,675 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These notes were further amended and converted into equity on March 2, 2020, as described further below in this note, see “2020 Note Conversion.”

The Company has evaluated the terms of its convertible notes payable in accordance with ASC 815 – 40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock” and determined that the underlying common stock is indexed to the Company’s common stock. The Company determined that the conversion feature did not meet the definition of a derivative and therefore did not bifurcate the conversion feature and account for it as a separate derivative liability. The Company evaluated the conversion feature for a beneficial conversion feature. The effective conversion price was compared with the market price on the date of each note. If the conversion price was deemed to be less than the market value of the underlying common stock at the inception of the note, then the Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature resulting in a discount on the note payable, upon satisfaction of the contingency. The beneficial conversion features were amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective notes, starting from the date of recognition.
