The Company had the option to prepay the Note at any time prior to its six-month anniversary, subject to pre-payment charges as detailed in the Note, which it did on August 24, 2020.

 

The September and December 2019 SPAs, the March 2020 SPA, the April 2020 SPA and the related Notes contained customary representations, warranties and covenants, including certain restrictions on the Company's ability to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets.

The Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after the date of the issuance and entitles this investor to purchase shares of the Company's common stock for a period of five years from the initial date the warrants become exercisable. Under the terms of the Warrants, the holder is entitled to exercise Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,050,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a fixed exercise price of $0.01. On January 7, 2021, the Company issued 1,008,000 shares of its common stock in connection with the cashless exercise of the 1,050,000 warrants. The exercise price was based on contractual terms of the related warrant.

 

These Notes and related Warrants included a down-round provision under which the Notes conversion price and warrant exercise price could have been affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company.

 

In connection with the issuance of the September and December 2019 Notes, the March 2020 Note and the April 2020 Note, the Company determined that the terms of the Note contain terms that are not fixed monetary amounts at inception. Accordingly, under the provisions of ASC 815-40 - Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity's Own Stock, the embedded conversion options contained in the convertible instruments were bifurcated and accounted for as derivative liability at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of the embedded conversion option derivatives was determined using the Binomial valuation model. At the end of each period and on the date that debt is converted into common shares, the Company revalues the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities.

 

In connection with the issuance of the September and December 2019 Notes, during the year ended December 31, 2019, on the initial measurement date, the fair values of the embedded conversion option derivative of $836,985 was recorded as derivative liabilities and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the Note of $320,351, with the remainder of $516,634 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense. At the end of the period, the Company revalued the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities and recorded a derivative expense of $53,425, In connection with the revaluation and the initial derivative expense, the Company recorded an aggregate derivative expense of $570,059 during the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

In connection with the issuance of the March 30, 2020 and April 23, 2020 Notes, in March and April 2020, on the initial measurement dates, the fair values of the embedded conversion option derivatives of $245,918 was recorded as a derivative liability and was allocated as a debt discount up to the net proceeds of the Notes of $85,502, with the remainder of $160,416 charged to current period operations as initial derivative expense. During the year ended December 31, 2020, at the end of each period and upon conversion or repayment, the Company revalued the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities and recorded a derivative gain of $69,793. In connection with the revaluation and the initial derivative expense, the Company recorded an aggregate derivative expense of $90,623 during the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

In connection with the warrants issued in connection with the September and December 2019 SPAs, the March 2020 SPA, the April 2020 SPA, the Company determined that the terms of the warrants contain terms that are fixed monetary amounts at inception and, accordingly, the warrants were not considered derivatives. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Binomial valuation model. In connection with the issuance of the 2019 warrants, on the initial measurement date, the relative fair value of the warrants of $61,899 was recorded as a debt discount and an increase in paid-in capital. In connection with the issuance of the March 2020 and April 2020 warrants, on the initial measurement date, the relative fair value of the warrants of $14,498 was recorded as a debt discount and an increase in paid-in capital.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the fair value of the derivative liabilities and warrants was estimated using the Binomial valuation model with the following assumptions:

 

    2020     2019  
Dividend rate         %
Term (in years)   0.25 to 5.00 years       0.69 to 5.00 years  
Volatility   293.4% to 345.7 %     275.8 to 317.5 %
Risk—free interest rate   0.12% to 0.39 %     1.56% to 1.75 %

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued 37,171,800 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of principal of $152,285, accrued interest of $36,244 and fees of $2,500. Additionally, the Company repaid principal of $393,215 and accrued interest of $15,917. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liabilities were marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount of $1,066,535 was reclassified to other income as part of gain or loss on extinguishment. Additionally, upon repayment, the Company and Investor agreed to cancel 288,750 warrants and agreed to modify the exercise price of the remaining warrants to $0.01 per share (see Note 8 - warrants). Since the fair value of the warrants using the new exercise price was less than the initial fair value amount, no additional expense was recorded (see Note 8 – warrants).

 

As of December 31, 2020, all of these convertible notes were either converted or repaid off resulting in a zero balance.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, interest expense related to convertible notes and warrants amounted to $551,100 and $237,445, including amortization of debt discount and debt premium charged to interest expense of $409,668 and $217,298, respectively.

 

The weighted average interest rate on the above notes and notes payable – related party (see note 7) during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was 13.2% and 14.9%, respectively.
