During February 2015, the Company issued a secured convertible promissory note in the sum of $600,000 to Masateru Higashida, the Company's major shareholder.  Interest was calculated at the annual rate of zero percent (0%) for the period until April 2016.  During March 2016, the Company and Masateru Higashida decided to extend the repayment date to March 31, 2017 so that the Company has more funds for production and marketing to fulfill customers' requirements, which is in the best interest of the Corporation and its shareholders. The annual rate of repayment is at an interest rate of one percent (1%) for the period until March 31, 2017. This promissory note will convert to 1,176,471 shares of NuZee, Inc common stock at $0.51 per share if Company is unable to pay back the note by then. During three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company accrued interest of $1,512 relating to this related party note.

 

If the outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interest on the debt hereof is not repaid by the Company in full by the repayment date, the debt or any portion thereof may be converted at the option of the lender, upon written notice to the Company at any time after the repayment date, into that number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the debt or that portion thereof that the lender elects to convert, divided by price per share of $0.51. This note shall by cancelled on the date of conversion of the entirety of the debt.  A beneficial conversion feature does not arise because the conversion price of a convertible instrument is above the per share fair value of the Company's stock. The conversion feature was evaluated as a derivative and there was no derivative during the 2015 to 2016 fiscal years.

 

During March 2016, the Company borrowed the sum of $100,000 short-term loan from NuZee Co., Ltd to be repaid on or before March 31, 2017 at an interest rate of one percent (1%). During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company accrued interest of 113. The Company paid back $55,000 of this short-term loan as of September 30, 2016, and there has no further pay back during this quarter.

 

During August 2016, the Company borrowed the sum of $100,000 short-term loan from Masateru Higashida to be repaid on or before August 31, 2017 at an interest rate of one percent (1%). During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company accrued interest of $211. The Company paid back $34,670 as of December 31, 2016.

 

During December 2016, the Company borrowed the sum of $18,384 short-term loan from NuZee Co., Ltd to be repaid on or before December 14, 2017 at an interest rate of one percent (1%). During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company accrued interest of $11.

 

The $600,000 convertible promissory note payable, each of the $100,000 and the $18,384 short-term loans are related party transactions since Masateru Higashida is the Company's major shareholder and he holds 100% ownership of NuZee Co., Ltd. Both Mr. Higashida and NuZee Co., Ltd are related parties with the Company.
