NOTE 10 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

Convertible notes payable – long term

 

On May 14, 2019 (the “Issue Date”), the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “NPA”) by and among the Company and the lenders set forth on the lender schedule to the NPA (the “Lenders”), as amended by that certain Amendment to Note Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment,” and, together with the NPA, the “Agreement”) by and among the Company and the Lenders. In total, pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $805,000 of its convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”).

 

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum, simple interest, and mature on the third anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”), to the extent that the Notes and the principal amounts and any interest accrued thereunder (the “Indebtedness”) have not been converted into shares of common stock of the Company. Interest on the Notes will accrue on a simple interest, non-compounded basis and will be added to the principal amounts on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as may be due upon an Event of Default (as defined below), at which time all Indebtedness will be due and payable, unless earlier converted into Conversion Shares (as defined below). In the event that any amount due under the Notes is not paid as and when due, such amounts will accrue interest at the rate of 12% per year, simple interest, non-compounding, until paid. The Company may not pre-pay or redeem the Notes other than as required by the Agreement. The Notes are general, unsecured obligations of the Company. The proceeds of the Notes will be used to repay certain outstanding indebtedness of the Company and for general corporate purposes. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded simple interest expense of $9,148 and $6,595, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded simple interest expense of $23,261 and $6,595, respectively.

 

The holders of the Notes (the “Holders”) have an optional right of conversion. A Holder may elect to convert its Note, and all of the Indebtedness outstanding as of such time, into the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) as determined by dividing the Indebtedness by $0.10, subject to certain adjustments, but excluding adjustment for a reserve stock split of no more than 1:20 contemplated by the Company at the Issue Date. The optional right of conversion is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion.

 

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. These covenants include, among other things, certain limitations on the ability of the Company to: (i) pay dividends on its capital stock; (ii) make distributions in respect of its capital stock; (iii) acquire shares of capital stock; and, (iv) sell, lease or dispose of assets. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Holders are granted demand registration rights and pre-emptive rights as set forth in the Agreement. The Agreement includes customary events of default, including, among others: (i) non-payment of amounts due thereunder, (ii) non-compliance with covenants thereunder, (iii) bankruptcy or insolvency (each, an “Event of Default”). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, a majority of the Holders may accelerate the maturity of the Indebtedness.

 

On June 15, 2020, Orbsat Corp (the “Company”) and the holders of the majority convertible promissory notes sold by the Company in the May 2019 private offering agreed to amend certain terms and provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of May 13, 2019 (the “NPA”) and related convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) consistent with the terms of such instruments as follows:

 

  1. to amend Section 2 of the Notes to allow the Company to pre-pay or redeem such Notes, with mutual consent of the parties to the Notes;
     
  2. to amend Section 3(a) of the Notes to change the “Conversion Price” from $0.10 per share to $0.20 per share;
     
  3. to amend Section 4 the beneficial ownership limitation upon conversion of the Notes from 4.99% to 9.99%;
     
  4. to amend Section 6.1 of the NPA to add “Most Favored Nation” provision such that for a period beginning on the closing date and ending two years thereafter, if the Company issues any common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than $0.20 per share, the “Lower Price Issuance”, then the Company will issue such additional units such that the subscriber/lender, will hold that number of units in total had subscriber/lender purchased the units with the purchase price equal to the lower price issuance common stock issued or issuable by the Company, notwithstanding anything herein or in any other agreement to the contrary, the Company should only be required to make a single adjustment with respect to any lower price issuance regardless of the existence of multiple bases;
     
  5. Section 6.2(b) of the NPA to waive a negative covenant to allow the Company to issue up to 100,000 shares of its common stock as compensation for services to various service providers, consultants, etc.; and
     
  6. Section 6.2(c) of the NPA to waive a negative covenant to allow the Company to put into place an employee stock option plan, or a similar plan, to grant equity in the Company to its officers, directors and employees.

 

In comparison to the fair market value of the common stock on May 14, 2019, and the fixed effective conversion rate of $0.10 per common share, the lesser amount of the conversion feature or debt was $805,000 and presented a beneficial conversion feature. Thus, the Company recorded a discount on the debt of $805,000 with a corresponding increase to additional paid in capital. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we amortized the discount on the debt, to interest expense of $169,668, resulting in a balance of unamortized discount notes payable of $635,333.

 

On June 15, 2020, the change in conversion price from $0.10 to $0.20, resulted in a difference in the carrying value of the balance of the note payable. Under ASC 470-50-40-13, if it is determined that the original and new debt instruments are substantially different, the new debt instrument shall be initially recorded at fair value, and that amount shall be used to determine the debt extinguishment gain or loss to be recognized and the effective rate of the new instrument. The original debt had a carrying value of $269,262 as of June 15, 2020, the fair value of the amended debt was $0 ($792,932 principle netted with the $792,392 note payable discount),which resulted a gain from the extinguishment of debt $269,262. Further, as of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of the amended note of $17,041, resulting in a balance of unamortized discount notes payable of $775,892 as of June 30, 2020.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Holders converted $12,068 of the convertible debt to common stock, resulting in an issuance of 120,676 common shares at the conversion rate of $0.10 per share. Following the change in conversion rate on June 15, 2020, the Holders converted an additional $2,687 of the convertible debt to common stock, resulting in an issuance of 13,437 common shares at the conversion rate of $0.20 per share. The balance of the convertible notes at June 30, 2020 is $790,245.
