Dominion, Kingsbrook and Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Dominion (defined below), Kingsbrook and Alpha (defined below) Convertible Promissory Notes were assumed.

Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes

On June 12, 2020 (the “Dominion Issue Date”), KBL entered into a $1,666,667 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note and $138,889 10% Senior Secured Convertible Extension Promissory Note (together the “Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes”) with Dominion Capital LLC (“Dominion”), which was issued to Dominion in conjunction with 400,000 shares of common stock (the “Dominion Commitment Shares”). In conjunction with the transaction, KBL entered into a series of Leak Out Agreements in which certain parities agreed that they would not sell, dispose or otherwise transfer, in aggregate more than 5% of the composite daily trading volume of the common stock of KBL. Pursuant to the Leak-Out Agreement between the KBL and Caravel CAD Fund Ltd., KBL issued 404,245 restricted shares of common stock (“Leak-Out Shares”).

The Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes had a debt discount due to original issue discount, third-party fees directly attributed to the issuance, leak-out shares, a derivative liability, a beneficial conversion feature and warrants. The debt discount assumed at the Business Combination for this note was $722,996, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. See Note 11 – Derivative Liabilities for more information on the derivative liabilities related to this note.

The Company has agreed to pay the principal amount, together with interest at the annual rate of 10% (unless the Company defaults, which increases the interest rate to 15%) (including 10% guaranteed interest), with principal and accrued interest on the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes due and payable on February 11, 2021 (the “Dominion Maturity Date”), unless converted under terms and provisions as set forth within the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes. The Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes provide Dominion with the right to convert, at any time, all or any part of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.28 per share. The Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes require the Company to reserve at least 868,056 and 114,584 shares of common stock from its authorized and unissued common stock to provide for all issuances of common stock under the 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note and 10% Senior Secured Convertible Extension Promissory Note, respectively. However, the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes provide that the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued to the Dominion under the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes shall not exceed 4.99% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the closing date unless the Company has obtained stockholder approval of the issuance (the “the Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Dominion, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes held by Dominion.

On the 10th day following the Company consummating any public or private offering of any securities or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind (each a “Subsequent Offering”) on any date other than the Maturity Date, the Company shall, subject to Dominion’s conversion rights set forth in such notes, pay to Dominion in cash an amount equal to the Mandatory Prepayment Amount but in no event greater than fifty percent (50%) of the gross proceeds from the Subsequent Offering.

The Company shall pay a late fee (the “Late Fees”) on any amount required to be paid under any transaction document and not paid when due, at a rate equal to the lesser of an additional 10% of such amount or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law which shall be due and owing daily from the date such amount is due hereunder through the date of actual payment in full of such amount in cash.

Immediately on and after the occurrence of any event of default, without need for notice or demand all of which are waived, interest on the notes shall accrue and be owed daily at an increased interest rate equal to the lesser of two percent (2.0%) per month (twenty-four percent (24.0%) per annum) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In addition, in any event of default, the Company must pay a mandatory default amount equal to one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes at such time and all accrued interest unpaid at such time (including any minimum interest remaining outstanding on such principal amount as of such time) and (b) all other amounts, costs, fees (including late fees), expenses, indemnification and liquidated and other damages and other amounts due to Dominion or any other party in respect of the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes (as applicable, the “Mandatory Prepayment Amount”).

The Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes also contain a provision whereby Dominion is due a minimum interest amount or make whole amount meaning on any date and with respect to any principal amount owing under the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes, the difference between (a) 10% of such principal amount, representing a full year of interest payments thereunder and (b) any payment of interest made prior to such date with respect to such principal amount. To be free from doubt, the minimum interest amount is only applicable for the initial 12 month period from the Issue Date.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense and amortization of debt discount of $77,067 and $134,164, respectively, and accrued interest of $52,254 as of December 31, 2020 associated with the Dominion Convertible Promissory Notes.

See Note 18 - Subsequent Events for information related to the conversions of the convertible notes subsequent to December 31, 2020.

Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes

On June 12, 2020 (the “Kingsbrook Issue Date”), KBL entered into a $1,657,522 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note and $138,889 10% Senior Secured Convertible Extension Promissory Note (together the “Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes”) with Kingsbrook Opportunities Master Fund LP (“Kingsbrook”), which was issued to Kingsbrook in conjunction with 250,000 shares of common stock (the “Kingsbrook Commitment Shares”).

The Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes had a debt discount due to original issue discount, third-party fees directly attributed to the issuance, a derivative liability, a beneficial conversion feature and warrants. The debt discount assumed at the Business Combination for this note was $685,615, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. See Note 11 – Derivative Liabilities for more information on the derivative liabilities related to this note.

The Company has agreed to pay the principal amount, together with guaranteed interest at the annual rate of 10% (unless the Company defaults, which increases the interest rate to 15%), with principal and accrued interest on the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes due and payable on February 11, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), unless converted under terms and provisions as set forth within the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes. The Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes provide Kingsbrook with the right to convert, at any time, all or any part of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.28 per share. The Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes require the Company to reserve at least 1,823,275 and 114,584 shares of common stock from its authorized and unissued common stock to provide for all issuances of common stock under the 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note and 10% Senior Secured Convertible Extension Promissory Note, respectively. However, the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes provide that the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued to Kingsbrook under the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes shall not exceed 4.99% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the closing date unless the Company has obtained stockholder approval of the issuance (the “the Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Kingsbrook, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes held by Kingsbrook.

On the 10th day following the Company consummating any public or private offering of any securities or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind (each a “Subsequent Offering”) on any date other than the Maturity Date, the Company shall, subject to Kingsbrook’s conversion rights set forth in the note, pay to Kingsbrook in cash an amount equal to the Mandatory Prepayment Amount but in no event greater than fifty percent (50%) of the gross proceeds from the Subsequent Offering.

Immediately on and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, without need for notice or demand all of which are waived, interest on this Note shall accrue and be owed daily at an increased interest rate equal to the lesser of two percent (2.0%) per month (twenty-four percent (24.0%) per annum) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In addition, in any Event of Default, the Company must pay a mandatory default amount equal to one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Kingsbrook Convertible Notes at such time and all accrued interest unpaid at such time (including any minimum interest amount remaining outstanding on such principal amount as of such time) and (b) all other amounts, costs, fees (including late fees), expenses, indemnification and liquidated and other damages and other amounts due to Kingsbrook or any other party in respect of the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes.

The Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes also contain a provision whereby Kingsbrook is due a minimum interest amount or make whole amount meaning on any date and with respect to any principal amount owing under the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes, the difference between (a) 10% of such principal amount, representing a full year of interest payments thereunder and (b) any payment of interest made prior to such date with respect to such principal amount. To be free from doubt, the minimum interest amount is only applicable for the initial 12 month period from the Issue Date.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense and amortization of debt discount of $61,315 and $127,228, respectively, and accrued interest of $0 as of December 31, 2020 associated with the Kingsbrook Convertible Promissory Notes.

See Convertible Debt Conversions of the Dominion, Kingsbrook and Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes further on in this note for the details related to the 2020 conversions of the notes. See Note 18 - Subsequent Event for information related to the conversions of the convertible notes that occurred subsequent to December 31, 2020.

Alpha Convertible Promissory Note

On September 8, 2020 (the “Alpha Issue Date”), KBL entered into a $1,111,111 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Alpha Convertible Promissory Note”) with Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”), which was issued to the Holder in conjunction with 100,000 shares of common stock (the “Alpha Capital Anstalt Commitment Shares”).

The Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes had a debt discount due to original issue discount, third-party fees directly attributed to the issuance, a derivative liability, a beneficial conversion feature and warrants. The debt discount assumed at the Business Combination for this note was $800,421, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. See Note 11 – Derivative Liabilities for more information on the derivative liabilities related to this note.

The Company has promised to pay the principal amount, together with guaranteed interest at the annual rate of 10% (unless the Company defaults, which increases the interest rate to 15%), with principal and accrued interest on the Alpha Convertible Promissory Note due and payable on April 7, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), unless converted under terms and provisions as set forth within the Alpha Capital Anstalt Convertible Note. The Alpha Convertible Promissory Note provides Alpha with the right to convert, at any time, all or any part of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.28 per share. The Alpha Convertible Promissory Note provides that the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued to Alpha under the Alpha Convertible Promissory Note shall not exceed 4.99% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the closing date unless the Company has obtained stockholder approval of the issuance (the “the Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). Alpha, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Alpha Convertible Promissory Note held by Alpha.

On the 10th day following the Company consummating any public or private offering of any securities or other financing or capital-raising transaction of any kind (each a “Subsequent Offering”) on any date other than the Maturity Date, the Company shall, subject to Alpha’s conversion rights set forth herein, pay to Alpha in cash an amount equal to the Mandatory Prepayment Amount but in no event greater than fifty percent (50%) of the gross proceeds from the Subsequent Offering.

Immediately on and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, without need for notice or demand all of which are waived, interest on this Note shall accrue and be owed daily at an increased interest rate equal to the lesser of two percent (2.0%) per month (twenty-four percent (24.0%) per annum) or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In addition, upon any Event of Default, the holder can elect to accelerate the amount due, payable in cash or in shares of common stock, at the greater of (i) 130% of the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest (including 10% minimum interest, discussed below), and other fees, expenses amounts due under any other transaction document; and (ii) divided by the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during the five trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to the dated of determination (subject to a floor of $2.00), and multiplied by the highest closing price for the Company’s common stock during the period beginning on the first date that an event of default occurred. A holder has made claims regarding an alleged Event of Default and the Company is in discussions with such note holder.

The Alpha Convertible Promissory Note also contains a provision whereby Alpha is due a minimum interest amount or make whole amount meaning on any date and with respect to any principal amount owing under the Alpha Convertible Promissory Note, the difference between (a) 10% of such principal amount, representing a full year of interest payments thereunder and (b) any payment of interest made prior to such date with respect to such principal amount. To be free from doubt, the minimum interest amount is only applicable for the initial 12 month period from the Issue Date.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense and amortization of debt discount of $28,962 and $94,787, respectively, and accrued interest of $47,504 as of December 31, 2020 associated with the Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes.

See Convertible Debt Conversions of the Dominion, Kingsbrook and Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes further on in this note for the details related to the 2020 conversions of the notes. See Note 18 - Subsequent Event for information related to the conversions of the convertible notes that occurred subsequent to December 31, 2020.

Extinguishment of the Dominion, Kingsbrook and Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes

On November 25, 2020, the Company entered into an amended agreement with Dominion, and Alpha to amend the secured convertible promissory notes in the original aggregate principal amount of $4,713,078 (after giving effect to a 10% original issue discount) that the Company issued pursuant to a purchase agreement (the “Notes”) so that the fixed conversion price of the Notes, during the 90 day period following November 6, 2020, shall be equal to the lower of: (A) ninety-six percent (96%) of the lowest volume weighted average price of the common stock of the Company on the NASDAQ Capital Market during the five trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to the applicable conversion date and (B) $5.28; provided, that in no event shall the fixed conversion price be lower than $2.00 (in each case, as appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the number of shares of common stock prior to such date). No other changes were made to the Notes as a result of the amendment agreement. The change of the conversion price of the Notes, triggered the most-favored-nation clause and changed the conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to be the same price as the Notes.

The Company determined that while the cash flows of the Secured Convertible Notes did not change upon the amendment (maturity and interest rate remained the same), the increase of the fair value of the conversion feature exceeded 10% of the carrying value of the Secured Convertible Notes prior to the amendment, and accordingly, the amendment should be accounted for as an extinguishment. In recording the extinguishment, the Company compared the reacquisition price of the post-amended Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $5,932,778 to the net carrying value of the derivative liability and pre-amended Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $2,880,524. As a result, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment in the aggregate amount of $3,052,254.

Convertible Debt Conversions of the Dominion, Kingsbrook and Alpha Convertible Promissory Notes

The holders of the Secured Convertible Promissory Notes elected to convert principal and interest into shares of the Company’s common stock as follows:

After the closing of the Business Combination, from November 27, 2020 to December 31, 2020, the holders of the Company’s convertible promissory notes were converted an aggregate of $3,441,924, which includes accrued interest of $279,291, which is owed under such convertible notes into an aggregate of 1,519,628 shares of our common stock, pursuant to the terms of such notes, as amended, at conversion prices of between $2.00 and $2.31 per share.

Default of Certain Convertible Promissory Notes

On December 31, 2020, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC which disclosed, among other things, that the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company, which were prepared based on the information and representations received from the former KBL management, for the interim period ended September 30, 2020, should no longer be relied upon due to errors in the condensed consolidated financial statements and should be restated. As a result, the Company recognized a derivative liability related to an arguable default of the Secured Convertible Notes, which was valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation.

Senior Notes

On July 25, 2019, the Company issued Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Notes”) totaling $1,200,000 of which an aggregate of $175,000 was issued to the former Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company. The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 15% per annum and matured on November 15, 2019. Any accrued and unpaid interest portion is capitalized to principal on a monthly basis. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Notes, the maturity date may be extended an additional 30 days at the option of the Company if the Securities and Exchange Commission’s review of the documents filed in connection with the Business Combination has taken more than 30 days. In the event of an event of default: a) the Company is required to notify the holders of these notes (the “Holders”) within one business day of any such occurrence; b) the interest rate increases to 18% per annum; and c) the Holder may require the Company to redeem any or all of the outstanding principal and interest together with a 25% premium.

The Senior Notes rank senior to all outstanding and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and are secured by: a) the Company’s equity interests in its subsidiaries; b) guarantees issued by those subsidiaries; and c) assets of those subsidiaries.

The Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and any outstanding late charges, automatically convert into common shares immediately prior to the occurrence of the Business Combination at the conversion price of $4.23 per share. If the Company issues any shares of its common stock or securities that are effectively common stock equivalents prior to the Business Combination at a price of less than $4.23 per share, then the conversion price per share will be adjusted so that the Holders receive the same conversion price. The above represents a contingent beneficial conversion feature that will be accounted for when the contingency is resolved. As of December 31, 2019, the contingently adjustable, non-bifurcated beneficial conversion features associated with the Senior Notes were not resolved. See below for details regarding the amendment of the Senior Notes and the conversion terms.

On January 13, 2020, the Company and holders of a series of Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Notes”) agreed to exchange the Senior Notes for new Senior Secured Notes (the “Amended Senior Notes”) with amended terms (the “Senior Note Amendments”). Pursuant to the Amended Senior Notes, the note holders waived all events of default associated with the Senior Notes and the aggregate principal amount and accrued interest of $1,282,205 and $6,411, respectively, was converted to principal in the aggregate amount of $1,846,052 (consisting of $1,282,205 of the outstanding principal of the Senior Notes, $6,411 of accrued interest reclassified to principal, $200,000 of restructuring fees and $357,436 of redemption premiums), of which $186,988 and $935, of aggregate principal and accrued interest, respectively, owed to the former Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, was converted to principal in the aggregate amount of $239,320 (consisting of $186,988 of the outstanding principal of the Senior Notes, $935 of accrued interest reclassified to principal and $51,397 of redemption premiums). See above in Note 13 – Convertible Notes Payable for a table displaying the impact of the increase in the principal under the column titled Amendment to Senior Note and Bridge Notes.

The Company accounted for the amendment to the Senior Notes as note extinguishments, since the present value of future cash flows under the Amended Senior Notes was substantially different than the future cash flows under the Senior Notes. Accordingly, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of $886,736, consisting of the issuance of the Amended Senior Note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,846,052, partially offset by the derecognition of the aggregate carrying amount of the extinguished Senior Notes of $1,288,616, plus the immediately recognized beneficial conversion feature of $329,300 arising from the modified conversion terms of the Amended Senior Notes.

The Amended Senior Notes rank senior to all outstanding and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and are secured by: a) the Company’s equity interests in its subsidiaries; b) guarantees issued by those subsidiaries; and c) assets of those subsidiaries.

The Amended Senior Notes were convertible into common stock of the Company at any time following issuance until maturity and automatically convert into common stock of the Company immediately prior to the occurrence of the Business Combination, in either event, at a conversion price of $4.23 per share. If the Company issues any shares of its common stock, or securities that are effectively common stock equivalents, prior to the Business Combination at a price of less than $4.23 per share, then the conversion price per share would be adjusted to the price at which those common shares (or equivalents) were issued.

The Amended Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 15% per annum and matured in February 2020. On June 12, 2020, the Company entered into an additional amendment with each noteholder to extend the maturity dates from February 2020 to August 2021. Unpaid interest is reclassified to the principal on a monthly basis.

In the event of default: a) the Company is required to notify the holders of these notes within one business day of any such occurrence; b) the interest rate increases to 18% per annum; and c) the holder may require the Company to redeem any or all of the outstanding principal and interest together with a 25% premium.

Additional Amendment to an Amended Senior Note

On June 12, 2020, the Company, KBL, and the holder of an Amended Senior Note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,661,136 agreed that (i) such Amended Senior Note will automatically convert into 404,265 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the Business Combination, and (ii) the holder of such Amended Senior Note and its affiliates shall not sell or dispose more than 5% of the daily trading volume of such shares of common stock as reported by Bloomberg, LP.

Extinguishment of Senior Note and Issuance of New Note

On June 12, 2020, the Company, KBL, certain investors (the “Purchasers”) and the holder (the “Initial Purchaser”) of an Amended Senior Note in the aggregate principal and interest amount of $1,528,360 (consisting of principal of $1,510,113 and accrued interest payable of $18,247) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which (i) the Amended Senior Note was extinguished, and (ii) KBL sold to the Purchasers a secured promissory note which is secured by the intellectual property of the Company. Such transaction closed on June 29, 2020. See above in Note 13 – Convertible Notes Payable for a table displaying the impact of extinguishing the aforementioned $1,510,113 of principal under the column titled Amendment to Senior Note and Bridge Notes. Concurrent with the transaction, on June 12, 2020, the Company, KBL, the Purchasers and Kingsbrook entered into a guaranty agreement pursuant to which the Company is a guarantor to the notes issued by KBL to the Purchasers and Kingsbrook. As of September 30, 2020, the Company determined that contingent payments under the guaranty agreement were not probable.

Additionally, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued the Initial Purchaser a non-convertible loan payable in the principal amount of $150,000 which bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum, payable at maturity. The note matures on August 31, 2021 (see Note 12 Loans Payable).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, in connection with the Amended Senior Note extinguishment and loan payable issuance above, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of convertible notes payable in the amount of $1,378,360.

Conversion of Senior Notes at Close of Business Combination

On November 6, 2020, upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company issued 482,894 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, to the holders of the Senior Notes, as a result of the automatic conversion of promissory notes in the principal amount of about $2,039,539 and accrued interest of $77,779, or an aggregate of $2,117,318, as per the closing of the Merger pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2019, by and among the Company, KBL Merger Sub, Inc., 180 Life Corp., Katexco Pharmaceuticals Corp., CannBioRex Pharmaceuticals Corp., 180 Therapeutics L.P. and Lawrence Pemble in his capacity as stockholder representative.

Bridge Notes

On January 3, 2020 and December 27, 2019, the Company issued convertible bridge notes in the aggregate amount of $82,500 and $250,000 under the same terms. The total outstanding principal amount of convertible bridge notes of $332,500 (the “Bridge Notes”) and the respective accrued interest will automatically convert into a portion of the 17.5 million shares of KBL common stock to be received upon the consummation of the Business Combination Agreement at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $6.00 per KBL share or 60% of the implied valuation at such time, as defined. The Bridge Notes accrue interest at 15% per annum. The contingently adjustable, non-bifurcated beneficial conversion feature associated with the convertible note will be accounted for at the time the contingency is resolved. The Bridge Notes matured on June 30, 2020. The Company may elect to prepay the Bridge Notes at any time without penalty, however, the holder may elect to receive shares of common stock of the Company in lieu of prepayment at the holder’s discretion. The Company analyzed the embedded conversion option of the convertible note at issuance and determined the embedded conversion option contains a contingent beneficial conversion feature that will be accounted for when the contingency is resolved. As of December 31, 2019, the contingently adjustable, non-bifurcated beneficial conversion feature associated with the convertible note was not resolved. See below for further details regarding the amendment of the Bridge Notes and the conversion terms.

Amended Bridge Notes

On July 7, 2020, effective June 29, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment agreement with each Bridge Noteholder (the “Amended Bridge Notes”). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Bridge Notes, the principal under each Amended Bridge Note is increased by 10% and the Amended Bridge Notes mature upon the earlier of (i) the date that the Registration Statement, which refers to the Form S-4 Registration Statement filed with the Commission by KBL, relating to the Business Combination, including the exchange of shares of common stock of the Company for shares of common stock of KBL, which is declared effective by the SEC; (ii) such date in which all amounts due and owing under the Amended Bridge Notes become due and payable pursuant to the terms of the agreement; and (iii) August 28, 2021 (“Maturity Date”). See above in Note 13 – Convertible Notes Payable for a table displaying the impact of the increase in the 10% of principal under the column titled Amendment to Senior Note and Bridge Notes. The Amended Bridge Notes can be converted at the following options:

Depending on the timing of the conversion, the holder will receive either:

In either case above, the number of conversion shares equal to (A) the outstanding principal amount plus interest being converted, divided by (B) the lesser of (i) $4.23 per share or (ii) the per share price equal to 0.60 multiplied by the per share price of one share of common stock sold by the Company as part of a PIPE transaction (or the deemed value of one share of common stock as reasonably determined by the board of directors of the Company sold in the PIPE transaction if the securities sold in the PIPE transaction include units or other securities convertible into shares of common stock), subject to equitable adjustment for any stock splits, combinations or similar events affecting the Company. As per the agreement, a PIPE transaction is defined as a private placement or public offering of shares of common stock of KBL for purposes of raising additional capital to fund the Business Combination or other matters. The Company determined that the embedded features of the Amended Bridge Notes were (i) a fixed price conversion option which represented a beneficial conversion feature of de minimis value and (ii) a redemption feature with de minimis value. See Note 18 – Subsequent Events for details regarding the conversion of the Bridge Notes.

Second Amendment to the Bridge Notes

On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into an additional amendment with each Amended Bridge Noteholder pursuant to which the Amended Bridge Notes will no longer mature upon the date that the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC. Since the change in cash flows was not more than 10%, this amendment was deemed to be a modification.

180 LP Convertible Notes

In connection with the Reorganization, the Company assumed $270,000 of debt related to convertible notes payable (the “Notes”), of which $10,000 is owed to the former Chief Executive Officer of 180 LP and $260,000 is owed to a founder and director of the Company.

Principal of $160,000 due under the Notes accrues interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum and principal of $110,000, accrues interest at 2.5% per annum. Interest is compounded annually. Effective upon the closing of the first issuance of convertible preferred units (or units with similar rights) with proceeds of at least $1,000,000 (the “Qualified Financing”), all of the outstanding principal and interest under these Notes will automatically be converted into other equity interests of the Company of the same class issued to other investors in the Qualified Financing, at a conversion price equal to 80% of the price per unit of the Qualified Financing securities paid by the other investors. The Notes contain contingent beneficial conversion features, which will be accounted for at the time the conversion price is known, and the contingency is resolved.
