Note Offering

On March 20, 2023, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Hensley & Company dba Hensley Beverage Company (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to the Purchaser a $5,000,000 10% Unsecured Convertible Note (the “Note”) for gross proceeds of $5,000,000 in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder (the “Note Offering”). The Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is due on March 20, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may not prepay the Note prior to the Maturity Date without the consent of the Purchaser. The Note will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum (based on a 360-day year), payable monthly. At any time prior to or on the Maturity Date and subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations, the Purchaser may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company at a conversion price of $1.20 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is adjustable in the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar event.
