Concurrent with the purchase of the Units, NextPlat, Charles M. Fernandez, Rodney Barreto, and certain other investors, purchased a convertible note issued by the Issuer to an unrelated party.

In consideration of those concessions, 21,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer were issued to the purchasers. NextPlat, Charles M. Fernandez and Rodney Barreto, purchased $1,213,428.53, $485,371.41, and $485,371.41, respectively, in outstanding balance of the note for purchase price of $1 million, $400,000, and $400,000, respectively, which represent the beneficial ownership in 60,671,427, 24,268,571, and 24,268,571 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, respectively, based upon the outstanding balance of the convertible note; and in addition NextPlat, Charles M.

In addition, each Debenture will mature on the third anniversary of its issuance and bear interest at 5.0% per annum, payable quarterly. At NextPlat’s election, interest can be paid in cash, shares of Issuer’s common stock, or some combination thereof. The Issuer has the right to prepay the Debenture at any time provided that it gives NextPlat seven (7) business days advance written notice, during which time NextPlat could elect to convert the Debenture to Issuer common stock. Upon the prepayment of a Debenture, Issuer will pay NextPlat an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal under such Debenture, plus (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest under such Debenture through the prepayment date, multiplied by (iii) 110%. While amounts are outstanding under a Debenture, the Issuer will be subject to certain restrictive covenants, including with respect to the incurrence of indebtedness, the imposition of liens on the Issuer’s assets, changes to the Issuer’s organization documents, etc.
In connection with the SPA, on November 16, 2022, NextPlat entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with the Issuer and the Issuer’s subsidiaries, Touchpoint RX, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Touchpoint”), Family Physicians RX, Inc., a Florida corporation (“FPRX”), and ClearMetrX Inc., a Florida corporation (“ClearMetrX” and collectively with the Issuer, Touchpoint and FPRX, the “Borrower Parties”). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Borrower Parties granted NextPlat a security interest in all of their respective assets to secure the Issuer’s obligations under the Debentures.
In addition, on November 11, 2022 the Issuer’s board of directors elected Mr. Fernandez to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Issuer. On November 7, 2022, NextPlat hired Robert Bedwell who had up until such date worked for Issuer as NextPlat’s Chief Compliance Officer. As part of such role, Mr. Bedwell will continue to monitor Issuer’s compliance on behalf of NextPlat. On November 14, 2022, NextPlat hired Cecile Munnik, the current Chief Financial Officer of Issuer, to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of NextPlat. Ms. Munnik will split her working time 30/70 between NextPlat and the Issuer until June 30, 2022. These executive interlocks result from NextPlat’s determination to use its ownership of Issuer’s securities to assert control over Issuer.
