NOTE 3 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES

 

  A. On June 5, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with YAII PN, Ltd. (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor agreed to provide the Company with a convertible loan in the aggregate amount of $1,100,000 in three tranches, and the Company agreed to issue convertible debentures and a warrant to the Investor. The funds were received in 2019.

 

In the period from loan inception through December 31, 2021, the full amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest was converted into shares of common stock.

 

In addition, the Company issued to the Investor a warrant to purchase 13,095 shares of common stock, at an exercise price equal to $21.00. The warrants may be exercised within 5 years from the issuance date by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrants shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

 

The Company considered the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, with respect to the detachable warrants that were issued to the convertible loan, and determined that as a result of the “cashless exercise” and variable exercise price that would adjust the number of warrants and the exercise price of the warrants based on the price at which the Company subsequently issues shares or other equity-linked financial instruments, such warrants cannot be considered as indexed to the Company’s own stock. Accordingly, the warrants were recognized as derivative liability at their fair value on initial recognition. In subsequent periods, the warrants were marked to market with the changes in fair value recognized as financing expense or income in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

The warrants were estimated by third party appraiser using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet date. The following are the data and assumptions used as of the balance sheet dates:

  B. On September 3, 2020, the Company entered into a second SPA with the Investor, pursuant to which the Investor will invest an aggregate amount of $220 in two tranches, and the Company will issue convertible debentures and warrants to the Investor. The funds were received in 2020.

 

In the period from loan inception through December 31, 2021, the full amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest was converted into shares of common stock.

 

In addition, the Company issued to the Investor a warrant to purchase 2,619 shares of common stock, at an exercise price equal to $21.00. The warrants may be exercised within 5 years from the issuance date by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrants shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

 

The Company considered the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, with respect to the detachable warrants that were issued to the Convertible loan, and determined that as a result of the “cashless exercise” and variable exercise price that would adjust the number of warrants and the exercise price of the warrants based on the price at which the Company subsequently issues shares or other equity-linked financial instruments, such warrants cannot be considered as indexed to the Company’s own stock.

  C.

On April 6, 2021, the Company entered into a third SPA with the Investor, pursuant to which the Investor agreed to provide the Company with a convertible loan in the aggregate amount of $150 and the Company agreed to issue convertible debentures and a warrant to the Investor. The loan will bear interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%) and will be repayable after two years. The loan has reached maturity and the Company is negotiating an extension for this loan. The investment will be convertible at any time into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of (a) $3.46, or (b) 80% of the lowest the daily dollar volume-weighted average price for the Company’s Common Stock during the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.

 

In accordance with ASC 815-15-25 the conversion feature was considered to be a derivative instrument and is to be recorded at its fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible loan and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The conversion feature derivative liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the statements of operations.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the convertible debentures have reached maturity. Therefore, the fair value of the Convertible Component was calculated based on its intrinsic value as of September 30, 2023.

 

The fair value of the convertible component at December 31, 2022 was estimated by third party appraiser using the Monte Carlo Simulation Model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each of the issuance and balance sheet dates.

 

The following are the data and assumptions used as of the balance sheet dates:

 

   September 30,
2023
 
Common stock price  $0.0182 
Discount to Common stock price   20.0%
Fair market value of convertible component  $117 

 

   December 31,
2022
 
Common stock price  $0.0902 
Expected volatility   146.61%
Expected term   0.26 
Risk free rate   4.46%
Expected dividend yield   0%
Fair market value of convertible component  $80 

 

   

As part of the transaction, the Company issued to the Investor warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,838 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price equal to $3.46. The term of each warrant is five years from the issue date. Each warrant may be exercised by cash payment or through cashless exercise by the surrender of warrant shares having a value equal to the exercise price of the portion of the warrant being exercised.

 

    The warrants were estimated by third party appraiser using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each of the issuance and balance sheet dates.

 

    The following are the data and assumptions used as of the balance sheet dates:

 

   September 30,
2023
 
Common stock price  $0.0182 
Expected volatility   270.36%

D.On June 7, 2021, the Company entered into a fourth SPA with the Investor, pursuant to which the Investor will invest an aggregate amount of $1,250 in three tranches, and the Company will issue convertible debentures and warrants to the Investor, in which each tranche is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001. The funds were received in 2021.

 

On December 28, 2022, the Company signed a forbearance agreement with the Investor extending the maturity date for all outstanding principal and interest under this loan to June 30, 2023. The Company is currently negotiating an extension for this loan.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the full amount of the first tranche principal in the amount of $500 remains outstanding.

 

In the period from inception through December 31, 2022, $424 of outstanding principal from the second tranche and $43 of accrued interest was converted into 2,121,262 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance from the second tranche was $76. As a result of the conversion of the convertible loans, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded losses from conversion in the amount of $71.

 

In the period from loan inception through December 31, 2021, the full amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest relating to the third tranche was converted into shares of common stock. 

 

The Convertible Debentures bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum (15% on default) and have a maturity date of one (1) year. The Convertible Debentures provide a conversion right, in which any portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, may be converted into the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, subject to adjustment. The Convertible Debentures may not be converted into common stock to the extent such conversion would result in the Investor beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be waived by the Investor upon not less than 65 days’ prior notice to the Company. The Convertible Debentures provide the Company with a redemption right, pursuant to which the Company, upon fifteen (15) business days’ prior notice to the Investor, may redeem, in whole or in part, outstanding principal and interest at a redemption price equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a redemption premium equal to 5% of the outstanding principal amount being redeemed plus outstanding and accrued interest; however, the Investor shall have fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Company’s redemption notice to elect to convert all or any portion of the Convertible Debentures, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 

In accordance with ASC 815-15-25 the conversion feature was considered to be a derivative instrument and is to be recorded at its fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible loan and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The conversion feature derivative liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the statements of operations.

  E. On December 14, 2021, the Company entered into a fifth SPA with the Investor, pursuant to which the Investor invested an aggregate amount of $500, and the Company issued convertible debentures to the Investor.

 

The Convertible Debenture bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum (15% on default) and has a maturity date of one (1) year. The Convertible Debenture provides a conversion right, in which any portion of the principal amount of the Convertible Debenture, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, may be converted into the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, subject to adjustment. The Convertible Debenture may not be converted into common stock to the extent such conversion would result in the Investor beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be waived by the Investor upon not less than 65 days’ prior notice to the Company. The Convertible Debenture provides the Company with a redemption right, pursuant to which the Company, upon fifteen (15) business days’ prior notice to the Investor, may redeem, in whole or in part, outstanding principal and interest under the Convertible Debenture at a redemption price equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a redemption premium equal to 5% of the outstanding principal amount being redeemed plus outstanding and accrued interest; however, the Investor shall have fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Company’s redemption notice to elect to convert all or any portion of the Convertible Debenture, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
