NOTE 4 - ACQUISITIONS

On January 19, 2024, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Yukon River Holdings, Ltd. (“Yukon River”), a corporation formed under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Seller”) concerning the contemplated sale by Seller and the purchase by us of 51% of the ordinary shares Seller holds in QXTEL LIMITED (“QXTEL”), a company incorporated in England and Wales.

The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) payable to the Seller for the shares is $5,000,000. Upon the execution of the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to deposit $1,500,000 of the Purchase Price into the trust account of a law firm acting as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) as a nonrefundable deposit to evidence our good faith intention to purchase the shares, which was credited against the Purchase Price.

At closing, in addition to the $1,500,000 with the Escrow Agent that formed part of the Purchase Price, we were required to pay $1,500,000 in cash and $2,000,000 to the Seller, either (A) in the form of a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”), or (B) by the delivery of iQSTEL shares to Seller. Seller could decide the form of payment between the Promissory Note or the shares of iQSTEL, and if a Promissory Note was chosen, we agreed to allow Seller the option to exchange the Promissory Note for shares of iQSTEL. On June 27, 2024, we entered into a second amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) that required us to issue an amended and restated promissory note to the Seller. We had paid down $200,000 of the note, so the amended and restated promissory note was issued in the principal amount of US $1,800,000. The amended and restated promissory note also changed the payment structure, from installment payments of $200,000 for each of the months of May through November ($1,400,000) with a balloon payment of $600,000, to monthly installments of $75,000 plus interest during 2024, and $212,500 plus interest during the first 6 months of 2025. We also revised the Earnout Payment due to the Seller. The Earnout Payment was redefined at $721,035 net income, to be achieved in Q2, Q3 and Q4 of 2024. The $1,000,000 payment that IQSTEL has to pay upon achievement of the Earnout Payment will be paid in monthly installments during the first half of 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repaid $725,000 on the Promissory Note.

The acquisition was closed on April 1, 2024. QXTEL has been included in our consolidated results of operations since the acquisition date.
