These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States or “US GAAP” applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next twelve months. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated interim financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $6,446,334 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company entered into a number of agreements that provided financing. That said, there is no assurance that the businesses being funded by this additional debt will ultimately be successful.

 

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of presentation

 

While the information presented is unaudited, it includes all adjustments, which are, in our opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, result of operations and cashflows for the interim period presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2020 annual financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the period ended December 31, 2021.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its two wholly owned subsidiaries, CZJ License, Inc. (“CZJ”) and Sovryn Holdings, Inc. (“Sovryn”)

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the ultimate outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are recognized in accordance with the accounting rules for the estimate, which is typically in the period when new information becomes available to management. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues derived from the leasing of television station channels are recognized when services are provided. These revenues are billed in advance, arrears and/or are prepaid. The performance obligation is the monthly services rendered. At the moment, the Company has one main revenue source which is leasing of television channels. Where there is a leasing contract for channels, the Company bills monthly for its services as rendered. Where there is no contract, the revenue is recognized as provided.

Accounts Receivables

 

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts: customer credit worthiness, past transaction history, current economic industry trends and changes in customer payment terms. Past due balances over 90 days and other higher risk amounts are reviewed individually for collectability. Based on the management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2021, the Company believes there are no receivables considered uncollectible.

 

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”). The new standard establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. Similarly, lessors will be required to classify leases as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and lessors will be based on an assessment of whether risks and rewards as well as substantive control have been transferred through a lease contract. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new standard April 19, 2021. The Company has elected not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company reports segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance of its corporation wide basis in comparison to its various businesses. The Company has three reportable segments. The business of CZJ, Sovryn and Madison Technologies Inc. The segments are determined based on several factors including the nature of products and services, nature of production processes and delivery channels, and rental of television stations. The operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its segment income. Segment income is defined as the net sales less cost of sales, general and administrative expenses and does not include amortization of any sorts, stock-based compensation or any other charges (income), and interest. As of September 30, 2021, the Company reported revenues for its rental of radio stations.

Change in significant accounting policies

 

There has been no change in the accounting policies from those disclosed in the notes to the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company adopts new pronouncements relating to generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the Company as they are issued, which may be in advance of their effective date. On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued a new standard (ASU 2020-06) to reduce the complexity of accounting for convertible debt. The standard is effective for Smaller Reporting Companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Management is reviewing this standard as it believes this may impact on its financial reporting Management does not believe that other any pronouncement not yet effective but recently issued would, if adopted, have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

The Notes each have a term of thirty-six months and mature on February 17, 2023, unless earlier converted. The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 11% per annum, subject to increase to 20% per annum upon and during the occurrence of an event of default. Interest is payable in cash on a quarterly basis beginning on March 31, 2021. Notwithstanding the above, at the Company’s election, any interest payable on an applicable payment date may be paid in registered Common Stock of the Company (rather than cash) in an amount equal (A) the amount of the interest payment due on such date, divided by (B) an amount equal to 80% of the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the five (5) days immediately preceding the date of conversion.

 

On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investors amended the Notes. The Notes are convertible at any time, at the holder’s option, into shares of our common stock equal to $0.02 per share subject to adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Conversion price in effect shall be equal to the alternate conversion price. If at any time the conversion price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the conversion price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the conversion amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where Additional Principal means such additional amount to be added to the principal amount of this Note to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the conversion price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The conversion price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and in connection with the issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price then in effect. The Notes may not be redeemed by the Company.

As part of the agreement with the Investors, the Company issued 192,073,016 warrants. On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investor amended the warrant agreement such that each Warrant is exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price equal to $0.025 per share, subject to adjustment herein, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%).

GENERAL

 

Overview

 

We, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sovryn Holdings, Inc. (“Sovryn”), have embarked on an acquisition strategy, rolling-up un-affiliated Class A/LPTV TV stations in the top 100 DMA’s (Designated Market Areas) with a goal of building out a nationwide platform through one or more station acquisitions per DMA. Each licensed TV station can broadcast between 10 and 12 or channels creating more revenue “streams” over-the-air, 24 hours per day/7 days per week. Management’s strategy is to stage the acquisitions focusing on DMA’s 1-30 and expanding thereafter on DMA’s 31-100, acquiring one station per DMA and building a portfolio of 100 stations within 18-24 months. Management has currently identified and held discussions with a number stations owners, has received FCC approval for three stations which have been acquired: (i) KNLA/KNET, a Class A television station in Los Angeles, and (ii) KVVV, a low power television station in Houston and has entered into asset purchase agreements for the following television stations: (iii) KYMU-LD, a low power television station in Seattle; three stations in which we anticipate closing in Janauary 2022 (i) W27EB, a Class A television station in Chicago (ii) KPHE-LB, a low power television station in Phoenix and (iii) KVSD-LD, a low power station in San Diego. We have also entered into purchase agreements for operating stations in New York and Atlanta and Construction Permits (“CP”) in San Juan Puerto Rico, Boise, ID and Bakersfield, CA. In addition, Sovryn has entered into non-binding letters of intent to acquire stations in Miami, Tampa and St. Louis and has also entered into a binding LOI to acquire Top Dog Productions, Inc., a television production company d/b/a “The Jay & Tony Show”, which produces content for third party networks.

 

Madison’s objective is to not only create one the largest, most comprehensive, state of the art, broadcast Over-The-Air (“OTA”) content distribution platforms to capitalize on the changing media and distribution landscape and on the growing OTA viewership in the U.S. but also embark on unique content development and network creation for distribution over its platform. The over-the-air programming carried on these stations is initially expected to include entertainment, shopping, weather, sports as well as religious networks and networks targeting select ethnic groups with lease agreements as the prime source of revenue. Pricing of lease agreements is in part determined by market rank, signal contour and number of OTA TV households in a given market, as well as supply and demand.

As the platform is built out, management not only anticipates substantial operational synergies from the roll-up but also an expansion in the revenue base with greater channel utilization, the addition of high-quality third-party content providers that are currently not reaching the “OTA” viewers, which now stands at an estimated 20mm households (44mm people) out of 108mm TV HH’s nationwide as well as revenue generated via the acquisition of “The Jay & Tony Show”

 

Station Operations

 

Madison’s plan is to acquire 50 independent TV stations in the top 30 DMA’s over the next 8-12 months. In addition, Madison expects to grow the station base to 100 tv stations nationwide through additional acquisitions targeting the top 100 DMA’s across the nation, ultimately covering 80% of the population of the U.S. over the next 18-24 months.

 

Each licensed TV station has the capability of delivering 10+ different revenue “streams” (channels) of content Over-the-Air, 24 hours per day/7 days per week . If converted to the new FCC approved ATSC 3.0 technology, the streaming capacity will increase to 25+ channels or more, giving Sovryn the potential to stream content upon completion of the roll-up to over 2500 channels aggregated over expected 100 stations.

 

Madison will operate the stations remotely and centrally, eliminating the need for in-market personnel or a studio facility. Remote operations of stations results in significant cost efficiencies. Recent FCC deregulation in TV broadcasting has eliminated the need for full time employees and studio facilities operating Class A and Low Power stations allowing for greater cost efficiency.

 

Recent Developments

 

On February 16, 2021, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Sovryn Holdings, Inc. (“Sovryn”) and the holders (the “Sovryn Shareholders”) of Sovryn’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Sovryn Common Shares”), pursuant to which the Shareholders exchanged 100% of the outstanding Sovryn Common Shares, for (i) 100 shares of series B preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), of the Company which was transferred by Jeffrey Canouse, the Company’s controlling shareholder and existing Chief Executive Officer (the “Controlling Shareholder”), to the designee of Sovryn and (ii) 1,000 shares of series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share of Sovryn (“Series E Preferred Stock,” and together with Series B Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Exchange Shares,” and the foregoing exchange of Sovryn Common Shares for Preferred Exchange Shares being the “Equity Exchange”).

 

Upon the effectiveness of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the Company’s authorized common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, from 500,000,000 shares to 6,000,000,000 shares, all shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued to the Shareholders shall automatically convert into approximately 2,305,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (“Shareholder Approval”). The Series E Convertible Preferred Stock votes on an as-converted basis with the common stock prior to their conversion. The Series E Preferred Stock shall represent approximately 57% of the fully-diluted shares of common stock of the Company after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

 

Immediately prior to the closing of, and as a condition to, the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company entered into a Share Transfer Agreement (the “Share Transfer Agreement”), pursuant to which the Controlling Shareholder transferred all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by him to an entity controlled by Philip Falcone, the Company’s new chief executive officer. The Series B Preferred Stock entitles the holder thereof to majority voting control of the Company by virtue of the 51% super voting rights attributed to the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Controlling Shareholder owned all 100 Shares of Series B Preferred Stock, entitling him to 51% of the aggregate votes taken by shareholders of any class on all matters being voted upon.

Immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, we entered into Exchange Agreements (the “Convertible Note Exchange Agreements”) with the holders of our outstanding convertible promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”). Pursuant to Convertible Note Exchange Agreements, the holders of the Convertible Notes were issued, in exchange for their Convertible Notes, a total of 230,000 shares of our newly-designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. Our new Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a ratio of 1,000 shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock held. Immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, we entered into Exchange Agreements (the “Preferred Stock Exchange Agreements” and together with the Convertible Note Exchange Agreements, the “Exchange Agreements”) with the holders of our outstanding series A convertible preferred stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).

The Notes each have a term of thirty-six months and mature on February 17, 2023, unless earlier converted. The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 11% per annum, subject to increase to 20% per annum upon and during the occurrence of an event of default. Interest is payable in cash on a quarterly basis beginning on March 31, 2021. Notwithstanding the above, at the Company’s election, any interest payable on an applicable payment date may be paid in registered Common Stock of the Company (rather than cash) in an amount equal (A) the amount of the interest payment due on such date, divided by (B) an amount equal to 80% of the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the five (5) days immediately preceding the date of conversion.

 

On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investors amended the Notes. The Notes are convertible at any time, at the holder’s option, into shares of our common stock equal to $0.02 per share subject to adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Conversion price in effect shall be equal to the alternate conversion price. If at any time the conversion price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the conversion price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the conversion amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where Additional Principal means such additional amount to be added to the principal amount of this Note to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the conversion price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The conversion price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and in connection with the issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price then in effect. The Notes may not be redeemed by the Company

 

As part of the agreement with the Investors, the Company issued 192,073,016 warrants. On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investor amended the warrant agreement such that each Warrant is exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price equal to $0.025 per share, subject to adjustment herein, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The exercise price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and recapitalizations. The Holder may be eligible for cashless exercise.

We expect to raise additional capital through the sale of equity and/or debt securities; however, there is no assurance that we will be successful at raising additional capital in the future. If our plans are not achieved and/or if significant unanticipated events occur, we may have to further modify our business plan, which may require us to raise additional capital. As of September 30, 2021, our principal source of liquidity was our cash, which totaled $2,194,562 .Historically, our principal sources of cash have included proceeds from the sale of common stock and preferred stock and related party loans. Our principal uses of cash have included cash used in operations and acquisitions. We expect that the principal uses of cash in the future will be for continuing operations, acquisitions and expenses associated with rolling out the business plan.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Madison’s financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Management believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of Madison’s financial statements is critical to an understanding of Madison’s financial statements.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the ultimate outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are recognized in accordance with the accounting rules for the estimate, which is typically in the period when new information becomes available to management. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Change in significant accounting policies

 

There has been no change in the accounting policies from those disclosed in the notes to the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company adopts new pronouncements relating to generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the Company as they are issued, which may be in advance of their effective date. On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued a new standard (ASU 2020-06) to reduce the complexity of accounting for convertible debt. The standard is effective for Smaller Reporting Companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Management is reviewing this standard as it believes this may impact on its financial reporting Management does not believe that other any pronouncement not yet effective but recently issued would, if adopted, have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Madison is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Madison’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of Madison’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2021. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Based on that evaluation, Madison’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that Madison’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information was accumulated or communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In particular, Madison has identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as discussed below.

 

-39-
 

 

Madison’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of Madison’s Chief Executive Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Madison’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of Madison’s assets;
     
  provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and
     
  provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Madison’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of Madison’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Madison’s Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of its financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and communicated the matters to management.

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an effect on Madison’s financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s board of directors caused and continues to cause an ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of the required internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Madison is committed to improving its financial organization. As part of this commitment and when funds are available, Madison will create a position to Madison to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase its personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function by: (i) appointing one or more outside directors to its board of directors who will also be appointed to the audit committee of Madison resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls over financial reporting; and (ii) preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists that will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who will also be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses: (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support Madison if personnel turn-over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues Madison may encounter in the future.

 

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of Madison’s internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in Madison’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Madison’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that Madison’s controls and procedures will prevent all potential error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with funds affiliated with Arena Investors LP (the “Investors”) pursuant to which we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $16.5 million for an aggregate purchase price of $15 million (collectively, the “Notes”). In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company issued to the Investors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 192,073,017 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Warrants”) and 1,000 shares of series F convertible preferred stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”).

 

The Notes each have a term of thirty-six months and mature on February 17, 2023, unless earlier converted. The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 11% per annum, subject to increase to 20% per annum upon and during the occurrence of an event of default. Interest is payable in cash on a quarterly basis beginning on March 31, 2021. Notwithstanding the above, at the Company’s election, any interest payable on an applicable payment date may be paid in registered Common Stock of the Company (rather than cash) in an amount equal (A) the amount of the interest payment due on such date, divided by (B) an amount equal to 80% of the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the five (5) days immediately preceding the date of conversion.

 

On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investors amended the Notes. The Notes are convertible at any time, at the holder’s option, into shares of our common stock equal to $0.02 per share subject to adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Conversion price in effect shall be equal to the alternate conversion price. If at any time the conversion price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock, then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the conversion price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the conversion amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where Additional Principal means such additional amount to be added to the principal amount of this Note to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the conversion price not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The conversion price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and in connection with the issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price then in effect. The Notes may not be redeemed by the Company

 

As part of the agreement with Arena, the Company issued 192,073,016 warrants. On September 24, 2021, the Company and the Investor amended the warrant agreement such that each Warrant is exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price equal to $0.025 per share, subject to adjustment herein, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The exercise price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and recapitalizations. The Holder may be eligible for cashless exercise.

 

The Series F Preferred Stock have no voting rights and shall convert into approximately 192,073,017 shares of common stock upon Shareholder Approval. Subsequent to the period ended September 30, 2021, the 1,000 Series F Preferred Stock were converted to 192,073,017 common shares. On November 8, 2021, the Series F Preferred Shareholders entered into an Exchange Agreement to exchange 39,895,000 common shares for 39,895 Series H Preferred Shares. Each of the Series H Preferred Shares converts to 1,000 common shares. A total of 39,895 Series H Preferred Shares were issued.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into Subordinated Loan Agreements for gross proceeds of $1,200,000, of which $350,000 was paid off subsequent to the quarter end.

 

The Loans were not registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempt transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The investors in such securities are each an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. 

 

On November 2, 2021, the subscribers of $4,600,000 for Series G Preferred Shares were issued an aggregate of 255,555,556 common shares. Proceeds from the financing will be used for operations and general working capital.

 

On November 24, 2021, 75,000 Preferred Series D shares were converted to 75,000,000 common shares.
