Loan Facility Agreement and Bridge Loans

 

Loan Facility

 

On August 4, 2016, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary SkyPharm entered into a Loan Facility Agreement, guaranteed by Grigorios Siokas, with Synthesis Peer-To Peer-Income Fund (the “Loan Facility” the “Lender”). The Loan Facility initially provided SkyPharm with a credit facility of up to $1,292,769 (€1,225,141). Any advance under the Loan Facility accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum and requires quarterly interest payments commencing on September 30, 2016. The amounts owed under the Loan Facility shall be repayable upon the earlier of (i) three months following the demand of the Lender; or (ii) August 31, 2018. No prepayment is permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Facility. The Synthesis Facility Agreement as amended is secured by a personal guaranty of Grigorios Siokas, which is secured by a pledge of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by Mr. Siokas.

 

On September 13, 2016, SkyPharm entered into a First Deed of Amendment with the Loan Facility increasing the maximum loan amount to $1,533,020 as a result of the Lender having advanced $240,251 (€227,629) to SkyPharm.

 

On March 23, 2017, SkyPharm entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Facility Agreement (the “A&R Loan Facility”), with the Loan Facility which increased the loan amount to an aggregate total of $2,664,960 (€2,216,736) as a result of the lender having advanced $174,000 (€164,898) in September 2016, $100,000 (€94,769) in October 2016, $250,000 (€236,922) in November 2016, $452,471 (€428,800) in December 2016, $155,516 (€129,360) in January 2017, $382,327 (€318,023) in July 2017 and $70,000 (€58,227) in December 2017. The A&R Loan Facility amends and restates certain provisions of the Loan Facility Agreement, dated as of August 4, 2016, by and among the same parties. Advances under the A&R Loan Facility continue to accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum from the applicable date of each drawdown and require quarterly interest payments. The A&R Facility now permits prepayments at any time. The amounts owed under the A&R Loan Facility were repayable upon the earlier of (i) seventy-five days following the demand of the Lender; or (ii) August 31, 2018. The A&R Loan Facility is secured by a personal guaranty of Grigorios Siokas, which is secured by a pledge of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by Mr. Siokas (the “Pledged Shares”). The A&R Loan Facility was also amended to provide additional affirmative and negative covenants of Sky Pharm and the Guarantor during the term of loans remain outstanding, including, but not limited to, the consent of the Lender in connection with (i) the Company or any of its subsidiaries incurring any additional indebtedness; or (ii) in the event of any increase in the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Pledged Shares shall be increased to an amount equal to a minimum of ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance under the A&R Loan Facility was $3,078,442 (€2,741,999) and accrued interest expense of $609,607 (€542,983) had been recorded.

     

On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment with the Lender that was effective as of January 1, 2018, pursuant to which the maturity dates for all advances was extended to December 31, 2021. Additionally, the interest rate was amended such that the interest rate for all advances is 4% plus the 3-Month Libor rate. The Loan Facility also forgave €35,060 ($40,000) in fees related to the July 6, 2017 advance. As a result, the Company reduced the unamortized portion of debt discount that related to those fees and recorded a gain on debt settlement of €19,763 ($23,354).

 

Bridge Loans

 

In 2017, the Company entered into loan agreements with Synthesis Peer-To-Peer Income Fund (the “Bridge Loans”) in the amounts of €41,590 ($50,000), €100,000 ($120,220) and €31,388 ($34,745). The Company had accrued interest expense of an aggregate total of €24,608 ($27,627) for both loans and the outstanding balances of these loans was €45,809 ($50,000), €83,333 ($106,542), €31,388 ($34,745), respectively, as of December 31, 2019.

 

On June 30, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement whereby the Company agreed to make certain payments to the creditor and the creditor will accept such payments as full discharge of the outstanding debt of the Loan Facility and Bridge Loans. In accordance with the settlement agreement, interest will accrue from June 30, 2020 until repayment in full at a rate of 6% per annum for the first year and 5.25% per annum for the second year calculated on the balance outstanding from day to day during such period. Interest is due on the 10th day of each calendar month. If any amount, principal or interest is unpaid on its due date interest shall accrue from the due date until the date of its payment until the date of its payment in full at the rate of 7.25% per annum. The Company will make quarterly payments of €125,000 beginning May 6, 2021 with a final payment of €2,200,000 on May 6, 2022. The Company evaluated the settlement agreement for debt modification in accordance with ASC 470-50 and concluded the debt qualified for debt extinguishment as the 10% cash flow test was met. As a result, the $3,772,446 of principal and accrued interest was written off and the new debt was recorded at fair value as of June 30, 2020 in the amount of $3,033,990. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $749,824, of which $12,066 related to the principal of the loans and the balance related to the accrued interest. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has accrued interest expense of $33,021 and the principal balance of the debt is $3,302,100, of which $2,843,475 is classified as Notes payable – long term portion on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

The debt is subject to acceleration in an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes). This agreement is secured by a personal guaranty of Grigorios Siokas, which is secured by a pledge of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by Mr. Siokas, as described above under A&R Loan Facility.

On May 12, 2018, the Company borrowed an additional €270,000 ($247,117) in funds.

 

On May 16, 2018, SkyPharm S.A., as Commodity Buyer, entered into a Supplemental Deed of Amendment (the “Deed”) relating to a Trade Finance Facility dated May 12, 2017, as amended, with Synthesis Structured Commodity Trade Finance Limited (“Synthesis”), as Loan Receivables Originator. Under the Trade Finance Facility (the “TFF”) first entered into on May 12, 2017, as amended, there was a principal balance of €5,866,910 ($5,369,678) outstanding as of March 31, 2018. SkyPharm made a payment of €1,000,000 ($1,123,600) of interest and principal on May 31, 2018 under the terms and conditions of the Deed. Additionally, the maturity date for the facility has been amended such that, the full principal amount is to be repaid no later than May 31, 2021, subject to a repayment schedule to be agreed upon by SkyPharm and Synthesis Structure Commodity Trade Finance Limited. Synthesis Structure Commodity Trade Finance Limited may extend this final repayment date at its sole discretion.

   

The TFF was amended to provide, among other things:

 

 

·

A listing of approved purchasers;

 

·

To permit SkyPharm to request Synthesis to make payments under the TFF directly to SkyPharm so that SkyPharm can discharge its obligations to a commodity seller directly;

·

The maximum aggregate amount of the TFF is €15,000,000, although there is no commitment for any future loans under the TFF;

 

·

The interest rate on the TFF for: (i) all lending in U.S. dollars is the one-month LIBOR plus six (6%) percent margin; and (ii) for all lending in Euro, the one-month Euribor Rate plus six (6%) percent per annum, commencing June 1, 2018.

 

·

Synthesis is permitted to terminate the TFF at any time and demand repayment of all outstanding principal and interest in full within six (6) months from the date of notification.

 

The Deed is conditioned upon, among other things, execution and perfection of a Bulgarian Amended Pledge (“BAP”) having priority over the Bulgarian Pledge Accounts with Unicredit Bulbank AD; and the Approved Purchasers are to make all payments to SkyPharm directly to the BAP.

 

On May 16, 2018, SkyPharm and Synthesis also entered into an Account Merge Agreement (the “Pledge”) as a requirement under the above-described Deed. Under the Pledge, Synthesis is to receive a first ranking securities interest in SkyPharm’s outstanding receivables under the Bulgarian bank account.

 

On October 17, 2018, the Company entered into a further amended agreement with Synthesis whereby the current balance on the TFF as of October 1, 2018, which was €4,866,910 ($5,629,555) and related accrued interest of €453,094 ($524,094) would be split into two principal balances of Euro €2,000,000 and USD $4,000,000. Interest on the new balances commenced on October 1, 2018 at 6% per annum plus one-month Euribor, when it is positive, on the Euro balance and 6% per annum plus one-month Libor on the USD balance. The Company will repay the principal amounts of each balance beginning no later than August 31, 2018 in quarterly installments of €125,000 and US $150,000. The loan matures on August 31, 2021. The Company evaluated the amended agreement under ASC 470-50 and concluded that it did not meet the 10% cash flow test and recorded debt modification expense of $138,110.

 

On December 30, 2020, the Company transferred the Euro €2,000,000 loan to a new third-party lender.  The terms remained the same except interest will now accrue at 5.5% per annum plus Euribor.  The principal is to be repaid in a total of five quarterly installments beginning October 31, 2021 of 50,000 Euro each with a final repayment of 1,800,000 Euro payable on the earlier of 24 months after December 30, 2020 or October 31, 2022.

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had a principal balance of €2,000,000 ($2,245,400) and $4,000,000 under the TFF and the Company had accrued $10,000 and $12,661, respectively in interest expense related to this agreement. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had principal balances of €2,000,000 ($2,446,000), of which $2,384,850 is classified as Notes payable – long term portion on the consolidated balance sheet, and $4,000,000 under the agreements and the Company had accrued $402 and $16,185 respectively, in interest expense related to these agreements.

    

Distribution and Equity Agreement

 

As discussed in Note 2 above, the Company entered into a Distribution and Equity Acquisition Agreement with Marathon. The Company was appointed the exclusive distributor of the Products (as defined) initially throughout Europe and on a non-exclusive basis wherever else lawfully permitted. As consideration for its services, Company received: (a) a 33 1/3% equity interest or 5 million shares in Marathon as partial consideration for the Company’s distribution services; and (b) received cash of CAD $2,000,000, subject to repayment in Common Shares of the Company if it fails to meet certain performance milestones. The Company is entitled to receive an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon the Company’s receipt of gross sales of CAD $6,500,000 and an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon receipt of gross sales of CAD $13,000,000.

 

As discussed in Note 2, the Company attributed no value to the shares received in Marathon pursuant to (a) above. In relation to the CAD $2 million cash received noted in (b) above, the Company accounted for its obligation to issue a variable number of the Company’s Common Shares as Share-settled debt obligation in accordance with ASC 480 measured at fair value or the settlement amount of $1,554,590 (CAD $2 million). If settlement were to occur on December 31, 2020, the Company would be required to issue 298,875 common shares to settle its debt obligation. The Company could be obligated to potentially issue an unlimited number of common shares to settle its Share-settled debt obligation. If such events were to occur, the Company would be required to increase its authorized share capital and since increasing the authorized share capital is within the control of the Company, as our CEO controls greater than 50% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, the original classification of equity-classified financial instruments issued by the Company were not affected.
