Our total investment in equity and loans to NGI Corporation (“NGI”) is $424,000, which includes $120,000 in demand loans to NGI during 2024, the notes bear interest at 15% with interest payable-in-kind, and the balance on NGI notes is convertible into NGI Series B preferred shares and warrants at any time at the option of the holder, $6,600 in accrued interest has not been recognized as the conversion option is evaluated. The Company also has made $304,000 in prior equity investments in NGI. A portion of the NGI investment includes equity in the form of 179,000 common shares received in 2020 as consideration for extending the maturity of a note receivable repaid in August 2020. Under the Note modification terms, we acquired 179,000 NGI common shares from its founders. We also received warrants expiring on March 31, 2029, to purchase 358,000 shares of common stock for $1.00 per share. We attributed $75,000 to the value of the equity received. This amount was reflected as interest income in 2020. The fair value of this investment remains consistent with its 2020 valuation.

This investment is reflected at the cost of $229,000. The preferred investment included a five-year warrant to purchase 34,697 shares at $1.65. Our CEO, Gary Copperud, is Chairman of the board of directors of NGI. Our COO, Kenneth Brimmer, is also an NGI board member and serves as its CFO. The investment in NGI does not have a readily determinable market value, and it is carried at the historic cost determined by BT Brands, which the Company believes is reasonable relative to recent stock sales by NGI.
