7. CONVERTIBLE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

 

Effective February 14, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between an otherwise unaffiliated, accredited investor (the “Purchaser”) and the Company in connection with our issuance and sale to the Purchaser of shares of Series A Preferred Stock under the terms and conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Sale”).

 

In connection with the Sale, our Board of Directors (our “Board”) authorized and approved a series of preferred stock to be known as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”, for which 1,050,000 shares, $0.0001 par value per share, were authorized and a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (the “Certificate”), was filed with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “State”) to effectuate the authorization. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the purchase of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock may occur in several tranches (each, a “Tranche”; and, collectively, the “Tranches”). The first Tranche of $300,000 ($315,000 in stated value, represented by 315,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock) closed simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement on February 14, 2017 (the “First Closing”), and each additional Tranche shall close at such times and on such financial terms as may be agreed to by the Purchaser and us. The net proceeds to us after offering costs was $255,000.

 

The Series A PS has the following rights and privileges:

 

Senior rights in terms preference as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company;
   
Accrues dividends at a rate of 5% per annum;
   
Mandatorily redeemable at an installment basis starting August 13, 2017 in the amount of $63,000 plus accrued interest. The Company has the option to redeem the Series A shares in cash or in shares of common stock based upon the Company’s 5 day Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the shares of our Series A Preferred Stock issued in the First Closing are to be redeemed by us in five (5) equal weekly payments (each, a “Redemption Payment”), commencing in approximately 180 days from the First Closing. All but one of the Redemption Payments may be made by us in cash or in shares of our common stock, at our option. The Holder shall have the option to demand payment of one Installment Redemption Payment in shares of Common Stock Redemption Payments made using shares of our common stock will be valued based upon a VWAP formula, tied to the then-current quoted price of shares of our common stock, described with greater particularity in the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Company considered the guidance of ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity to determine the appropriate treatment of the Series A shares. Pursuant to ASC 480-10, the Company determined that the Series A shares is an obligation to be settled, at the option of the Company, in cash or in variable number of shares with a fixed monetary value that should be recorded as a liability under ASC 480-10. As a result, the Company determined the fair value of the Series A to be $300,000 upon issuance with the difference of $15,000 from the face amount, and incurred legal fees of $45,000, to be accounted as a debt discount which will be amortized over the term of the redemption period of the Series A shares.

 

As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a liability of $315,000 and a debt discount of $60,000, upon issuance. As of March 31, 2017, the remaining unamortized discount was $46,857 resulting in a net amount due of $268,143.
