NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

Greenway Technologies, Inc. (“ Greenway Technologies,” “GTI,” or the “Company”) was organized on March 13, 2002, under the laws of the State of Texas as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation.  On August 18, 2009, in connection with a merger with Universal Media Corporation, a privately held Nevada company, the Company changed its name to Universal Media Corporation (“Universal Media”).  The Company changed its name to UMED Holdings, Inc. on March 23, 2011, and to Greenway Technologies, Inc. on June 23, 2017.

The Company’s mission is to operate as a holding company through the acquisition of businesses as wholly-owned subsidiaries that meet some key requirements: (1) solid management that will not have to be replaced in the near future (2) the ability to grow with steady growth to follow and (3) an emphasis on emerging core industry markets, such as energy and metals.  It is the Company’s intention to add experienced personnel and select strategic partners to manage and operate the acquired business units.

In September 2010, the Company acquired 1,440 acres of placer mining claims on Bureau of Land Management land in Mohave County, Arizona. See discussion in Note 3.  Due to the Company not producing any revenues from its BLM mining leases since its acquisition of the leases, achieving a position of producing cash flow levels to fund the development of its BLM mining leases in December 2010 and not having current resources for an appraisal, we recognized an impairment charge of $100,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014.

In August 2012, the Company acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. (sometimes, “GIE”) which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary process and related technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (syngas). Syngas is an important intermediate gas used by industry in the production of ammonia, methane, liquid fuels, and other downstream products. The Company’s unique process is called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (FTO). When combined with Greenway Technologies’ Fischer-Tropsch (FT) system, we offer a new economical, relatively small scale (125 to 2,475 bbls/day) method of converting gas-to-liquids (GTL) that can be located in field locations where needed.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities:

Name of Entity %   Entity Incorporation Relationship
Greenway Technologies, Inc.     Corporation Texas Parent
Universal Media Corporation 100  % Corporation Wyoming Subsidiary
Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. 100  % Corporation Nevada Subsidiary
Logistix Technology Systems, Inc. 100  % Corporation Texas Subsidiary

 

  7  
 

Going Concern Uncertainties

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained a loss of approximately $6.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, and has a working capital deficiency of approximately $1.7 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $21 million at June 30, 2017. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations or on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.

The Company is in discussions with several oil and gas companies and other organizations regarding joint venture funding for its first gas-to-liquids (GTL) plant using the Company’s unique GTL system. Should an agreement be made, the joint venture relationship will provide funding at a level of $20M to $50M with an ongoing profit-sharing arrangement between the Company and the partner organizations and/or individuals with an economic profile previously not achievable in the GTL industry segment. While there are no assurances that financing for the first plant will be obtained on acceptable terms and in a timely manner, the failure to obtain the necessary working capital may cause the Company to move in one or more alternate directions to shepherd this revolutionary GTL system into production. Several alternate paths are under consideration in conjunction with the joint venture/profit sharing approach.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold, are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale or salvage value are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

Straight Line Depreciation = (Purchase Price of Asset - Approximate Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life of Asset.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.”  An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate.  If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value.  If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has not, to date, generated any revenues.  The Company plans to recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing 605-25 on the Company’s financial position and results of operations was not significant.

  8  
 

  Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents at June 30, 2017, or December 31, 2016.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes . The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements.  The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  Open tax years, subject to IRS examination include 2013 – 2016.

Net Loss Per Share, basic and diluted

Basic loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants (314,733) have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.  They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.

See Note 6 below for discussion regarding convertible notes payable and a warrant agreement.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2008, fair value measurements are determined by the Company’s adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities, as permitted. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

  9  
 

 Level 1 – Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Valuation based on, observable inputs (other than level one prices), quoted market prices for similar assets such as at the measurement date; quoted prices in the market that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.

Original Issue Discount

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company provides the debt holder with an original issue discount (“OID”).  An OID is the difference between the original cash proceeds and the amount of the note upon maturity. The Note is originally recorded for the total amount payable. The OID is amortized into interest expense pro-rata over the term of the Note.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation of the Company’s notes recorded at fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs, which consider (i) time value, (ii) current market and (iii) contractual prices.

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, notes payable and other payables, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The following table represents the Company’s assets and liabilities by level measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2017:

Description   Level 1     Level 2   Level 3  
Derivative Liabilities   $       $     $ 71,759  
                         

The following assets and liabilities are measured on the balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis utilizing significant unobservable inputs or Level 3 assumptions in their valuation. The following tables provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the liabilities:

The change in the notes payable at fair value for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, is as follows:

All gains and losses on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are recognized in other interest income and expense in the accompanying financial statements.

  10  
 

Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires that all share-based payments to both employees and non-employees be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.

At June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any issued or outstanding stock options.

Concentration and Credit Risk

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions.  At times, such deposits may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $337,932 and $259,671 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Issuance of Common Stock

The issuance of common stock for other than cash is recorded by the Company at market values.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

May 2016 Convertible Note

On May 4, 2016, the Company issued a $224,000 convertible promissory note bearing interest at 10.0% per annum to an accredited investor, payable beginning November 10, 2016, in monthly installments of $44,800 plus accrued interest and a cash premium equal to 10.0% of the installment amount.  The convertible promissory note was paid on March 4, 2017.  The holder had the right under certain circumstances to convert the note into common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to 70% of the average of the 3 lowest volume weighted average trading prices during the 20-day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.

The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible note in accordance with ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, and concluded that the Convertible Note resulted in a derivative. The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible note and concluded that there was a beneficial conversion feature since the convertible note was convertible into shares of common stock at a discount to the market value of the common stock. The discount related to the beneficial conversion feature on the note was valued at $224,000 based on the Black-Scholes Model . The discount related to the beneficial conversion feature ($51,829) was amortized over the term of the debt (10 months).  For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized interest expense of $9,327 related to the amortization of the discount.

In connection with the issuance of the $224,000 note, the Company recorded debt issue cost and discount as follows:

· $20,000 original issue discount and $4,000 debt issue cost, which was amortized over 10 months, with amortization of $3,600 for six months ended June 30, 2017.
· The convertible promissory note was paid in full on March 10, 2017, reducing the embedded derivative for the 2016 beneficial conversion right to zero at June 30, 2017.

September 2014 Convertible Note

In connection with the issuance of a $158,000 convertible promissory note in 2014, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

· Warrants – recorded at fair value ($79,537) upon issuance, and marked -to-market on the balance sheet at $71,759 as of June 30 2017, and $20,820 as of December 31, 2016, which was computed as follows:
    Commitment Date

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

At June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of net operating losses (“NOL”) carry forwards for federal and state income tax purposes.  These losses are available for future years and expire through 2033.  Utilization of these losses may be severely or completely limited if the Company undergoes an ownership change pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382.

The provision for income taxes for continuing operations consists of the following components for the six months ended June 30, 2017, and the year ended December 31, 2016:

  2017   2016  
         
Current   $ 0     $ 0  
Deferred     0       0  
   Total tax provision   $ 0     $ 0  

 

  13  
 

A comparison of the provision for income tax expense at the federal statutory rate of 34% for the six months ended June 30, 2017, and the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company’s effective rate is as follows:

    2017   2016
         
Federal statutory rate     (34.0 )%     (34.0 )%
State tax, net of federal benefit     (0.0 )     (0.0 )
Permanent differences and other including surtax exemption     0.0       0.0  
Valuation allowance     34.0       34.0  
Effective tax rate     0.0 %     0.0 %

 

The net deferred tax assets and liabilities included in the financial statements consist of the following amounts at June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016:

    2017     2016  
Deferred tax assets            
Net operating loss carry forwards   $ 6,602,936     $ 5,602,576  
Deferred compensation     2,444,698       2,570,198  
Stock based compensation     10,486,062       5,165,124  
Other     1,217,990       1,138,307  
Total     20,751,686       14,476,205  
Less valuation allowance     (20,751,686 )     (14,476,205 )
Deferred tax asset     0       0  
Deferred tax liabilities                
Depreciation and amortization   $ 0     $ 0  
Net long-term deferred tax asset   $ 0     $ 0  

 

The change in the valuation allowance was $6,275,481 and $2,018,074 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, and the year ended December 31, 2016, respectively.  The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset for the loss from operations, interest expense, interest income and other income subsequent to the change in ownership, which amounted to $20,751,686 and $14,476,205 at June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, historical taxable income including available net operating loss carry forwards to offset taxable income, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.

Overview

UMED Holdings, Inc. (“UMED”) was originally incorporated as Dynalyst Manufacturing Corporation (“Dynalyst”) under the laws of the State of Texas on March 13, 2002.

In connection with the merger with Universal Media Corporation (“UMC”), a Nevada corporation, on August 17, 2009, we changed our name to Universal Media Corporation. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger, and Universal Media Corporation was the acquiring company on the basis that Universal Media Corporation’s senior management became the entire senior management of the merged entity and there was a change of control of Dynalyst. The transaction was accounted for as recapitalization of Dyanlyst’s capital structure. In connection with the merger, Dynalyst issued 57,500,000 restricted common shares to the shareholders of Universal Media Corporation for 100% of Universal Media Corporation.

On August 18, 2009, Dynalyst approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change our name to Universal Media Corporation and approved the increase in authorized shares to 300,000,000 shares of common A stock, par value $0.0001 and 20,000,000 shares of common B, par value $0.0001.

On March 23, 2011, Universal Media Corporation approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation and filed with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change our name to UMED Holdings, Inc.

On June 22, 2017, UMED Holdings, Inc. approved the amendment of our certificate of formation and filed on June 23, 2017, with the Texas Secretary of State an amendment to change our name to Greenway Technologies, Inc.

Greenway Technologies is a holding company with present interests in energy and mining. We have our corporate offices at 8851 Camp Bowie West, Suite 240, Fort Worth, Texas 76116, consisting of approximately 1,800 square feet. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, GIE, has offices at 1521 North Cooper Street, Suite 207, Arlington, Texas 76011.

We will be unable to pay our obligations in the normal course of business or service our debt in a timely manner throughout 2017 without raising additional debt or equity capital. There can be no assurance that additional debt or equity capital will be raised.

Greenway Technologies is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of capital, or (ii) issuance of debt instruments. This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs. There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate our 12 month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.

Greenway Technologies currently has a need of approximately $130,000 per month to sustain operations and pay the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) Sponsored Research Agreements until the first gas to liquids (“GTL”) Unit is completed.

Energy Interest

In August 2012, Greenway Technologies (formerly, UMED) acquired 100% of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. which owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary technology to convert natural gas into synthesis gas (syngas). Based on a new, breakthrough process called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (FTO), Greenway Technologies’ G-Reformer™, combined with   a Fischer-Tropsch process, offers an economical and scalable method to converting natural gas to liquid fuel.

On June 26, 2017, Greenway Technologies, in conjunction with UTA, announced that it had successfully demonstrated its GTL technology at the Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA proving the viability of the GTL system. Greenway Technologies now plans to commercialize the system and related technology and is in discussions with several oil and gas companies, and other individuals and organizations regarding joint venture funding for its first gas-to-liquids (GTL) plant using our proprietary processes. Should an agreement be made, the joint venture relationship will provide funding at a level of $20M to $50M with an ongoing profit-sharing arrangement between Greenway Technologies and the partner.

  16  
 

 Greenway Technologies’ technology is unique in that it allows for plants with a smaller footprint, versus legacy large-scale technologies, combined with lower up-front and ongoing costs.

One of several important applications for our technology is the harvesting of stranded natural gas. There is an abundance of stranded natural gas located throughout the United States with no practical way to transfer the gas to existing distribution systems for sale. This valuable energy resource sits untapped, unused, or more harmfully, is vented to the atmosphere. Greenway Technologies’ technology allows this valuable energy resource to be harvested and monetized.

Greenway Technologies’ breakthrough patented GTL system offers a solution to this energy challenge. Our system allows for relatively small by comparison, scalable plants to be deployed at geographically dispersed locations to convert natural gas into synthetic fuel that is transportable and can be sold directly to markets without the need for additional processing at a refinery.

Our research has been centered on developing a portable production-scale FT system (“the Portable Technology”) to accommodate the needs of smaller gas plays that are increasingly beginning to characterize natural gas production within the United Stated and elsewhere. We are currently seeking funding of $20M to $50M to build the initial GTL unit.

Since March 1, 2016, we have raised approximately $1,500,000 and have built a small-scaled prototype unit at UTA in conjunction with a sponsored research agreement.

Mining Interest

In December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of our restricted common stock. Early indications, from samples taken and processed, provides reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the 1,440 acres is significant, but actual mining and processing will determine the ultimate value which may be realized. Funding of $500,000 is being sought to begin certified assaying, to determine the viability of continued development of the mining claims.

Going Concern

As of June 30, 2017, the registrant had an accumulated deficit during development stage of $20,751,686. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the registrant used net cash of $562,898 for operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about the registrant’s ability to continue as a going concern.

While the registrant is attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, the registrant’s cash position may not be significant enough to support the registrant’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the registrant to continue as a going concern. While the registrant believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the registrant to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the registrant’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.

Seasonality

Impact of Inflation

General inflation in the economy has driven the operating expenses of many businesses higher. We will continuously seek methods of reducing costs and streamlining operations while maximizing efficiency through improved internal operating procedures and controls. While we are subject to inflation as described above, our management believes that inflation currently does not have a material effect on our operating results. However, inflation may become a factor in the future.

Commitments

Employment Agreements. In May 2011, UMED entered into employment agreements with its chief executive officer, president and chief financial officer. The Agreements were for a term of five years ending May 31, 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, UMED expensed a total of $90,000 in expense and accrual as management fees in accordance with the terms of these agreements.

In August 2012, UMED entered into employment agreements with the president and chairman of the board of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc. for a term of five years with compensation of $90,000 per year. In June 2014, the president’s employment agreement was amended to increase his annual pay to $180,000. On March 31, 2015, accrual on the Greenway chairman of the board agreement was ceased due to his absence from the Company for more than a year. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, UMED expensed a total of $45,000 in expense and accrual, respectively.

Greenway Technologies does not have any other employment agreements, other than as described above.

Leases. In October 2015, UMED entered into a two-year lease for approximately 1,800 square feet a base rate of $2,417 per month. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we expensed $8,550 and $7,251, respectively, in rent expense.

Mining Interest. In December 2010, UMED acquired from Melek Mining, Inc. and 4HM Partners, LLC the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims in Mohave County, Arizona for 5,066,000 shares of our restricted common stock. Our minimum commitment for 2017 is approximately $11,160 in annual maintenance fees, which are due September 1, 2017, payable to the United States Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). Once we enter the production phase, royalties owed to the BLM will be are equal to 10% of production. As of the date of this report, the mining claims are not covered by any lease agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.

  20  
 

We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Sales are recorded when products are shipped to customers. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

We evaluate our long-lived assets for financial impairment on a regular basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets not held for sale by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future discounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We conduct all of our transactions, including those with foreign suppliers and customers, in U.S. dollars. We are therefore not directly subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuations and do not hedge or otherwise deal in currency instruments in an attempt to minimize such risks. Demand from foreign customers and the ability or willingness of foreign suppliers to perform their obligations to us may be affected by the relative change in value of such customer or supplier’s domestic currency to the value of the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, changes in the relative value of the U.S. dollar may change the price of our products relative to the prices of our foreign competitors.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation cost for stock-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant. We measure compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize compensation cost upon the probable attainment of a specified performance condition or over a service period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation.” The update removes all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915 from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, the update adds an example disclosure in Risks and Uncertainties (Topic 275) to illustrate one way that an entity that has not begun planned principal operations could provide information about the risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s current activities. Furthermore, the update removes an exception provided to development stage entities in Consolidations (Topic 810) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity-which may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a company that has an interest in a company in the development stage. The update is effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, including interim periods therein. Early application with the first annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued (Public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). We adopted this pronouncement for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

There has been no material change in our market risks since the end of the fiscal year 2016.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

  21  
 

 

The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a, et seq. ) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

· Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer;
· Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and
· Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the registrant have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In June 2017, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in “Internal Control -- Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO II) of the Treadway Commission. Based upon this assessment, we determined that our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considers to be material weaknesses under COSO II and SEC rules are: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of independent directors on our board of directors, resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned potential material weaknesses were identified by our chief financial officer in connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of June 30, 2017, who communicated the matters to our management and board of directors.

  22  
 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of independent directors on our board of directors resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can impact our financial statements.

  23  
 

  Management’s Remediation Initiatives

Although we are unable to meet the standards under COSO II because of the limited funds available to a company of our size, we are committed to improving our financial organization. As funds become available, we will undertake to: (1) create positions to segregate duties consistent with control objectives, (2) increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function (3) appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and (4) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. However, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Greenway Technologies have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On April 22, 2016, Greenway Technologies filed suit under Cause No. DC-16-004718, in the 193rd District Court, Dallas County, Texas against Mamaki of Hawaii, Inc. (“Mamaki”), Hawaiian Beverages, Inc.(“HBI”), Curtis Borman and Lee Jenison for breach of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated October 29, 2015, wherein we sold our shares in Mamaki to HBI for $700,000 (along with the assumption of certain debt). The Defendants failed to make payments of $150,000 each on November 30, 2015, December 28, 2015 and January 27, 2016. On January 13, 2017, we executed a Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement with the Defendants. However, the Defendants defaulted in their payment obligations under Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement, and as result, Greenway Technologies will move for Summary Judgment as soon as possible.

All of our unregistered securities described in this Item 2 were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Each investor took his securities for investment purposes without a view to distribution and had access to information concerning Greenway Technologies and our business prospects, as required by the Securities Act. In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for the purchase of our securities. Our securities were sold only to accredited or sophisticated investors, as defined in Regulation D with whom we had a direct personal preexisting relationship, and after a thorough discussion. Each certificate contained a restrictive legend as required by the Securities Act. Finally, our stock transfer agent has been instructed not to transfer any of such securities, unless such securities are registered for resale or there is an exemption with respect to their transfer.

Each purchaser or recipient of our shares, who was not an accredited investor, either alone or with his purchaser representative(s) had such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment, or Greenway Technologies reasonably believed immediately prior to making any sale that such purchaser came within this description.

All of the above described investors who received shares of our common were provided with access to our filings with the SEC, including the following:

· The information contained in our annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the occurrence of an event described in Section 4.1(ii) or (iii) shall not be considered an Event of Default if delivery of the applicable Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares is made within five (5) days of the date such shares are required to be delivered; provided, however, that the foregoing right to cure may only be applied with respect to two (2) late deliveries of shares; and (B) the occurrence of an event described in Section 4. I(ix), (x), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xiv), (xv), or (xvi) shall not be considered an Event of Default if such event is cured within ten (10) days of Lender's delivery of written notice to Borrower informing Borrower of the occurrence of such event.

4.2.              Remedies . Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall within one (l) Trading Day deliver written notice thereof via facsimile, email or reputable overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (an "Event of Default Notice") to Lender. At any time and from time to time after the earlier of Lender's receipt of an Event of Default Notice and Lender becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount (as defined hereafter). Notwithstanding the föregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, elect to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (as defined below) (subject to the limitation set forth below) via written notice to Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased

  3  

 

 

as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Event Of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance shall not be immediately due and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the Default Effect pursuant to this sentence, it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable at any time and no such election by Lender shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable as set forth herein unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). For purposes hereof, the "Default Effect" is calculated by multiplying the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred by (i) 15% for each occurrence of any Major Default, or (ii) 5% for each occurrence of any Minor Default, and then adding the resulting product to the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred, with the sum Of the foregoing then becoming the Outstanding Balance under this Note as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred; provided that the Default Effect may only be applied three (3) times hereunder with respect to Major Defaults and three (3) times hereunder with respect to Minor Defaults; and provided further that the Default Effect shall not apply to any Event Of Default pursuant to Section 4. I(ii) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (iv), (v), (vii), (vii) or (viii) of Section 4.1, the Outstanding Balance as of the date of acceleration shall become immediately and automatically due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount, without any written notice required by Lender. The "Mandatory Default Amount" means the greater of (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by the Installment Conversion Price (as defined below) on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is demanded, multiplied by the volume weighted average price (the "VWAP") on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is demanded, or (ii) the Default Effect. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law ("Default Interest"); provided, however, that no Default Interest shall accrue during the Fundamental Default Measuring Period (as defined below). Additionally, following the occurrence of any Event Of Default, Borrower may, at its option, pay any Lender Conversion in cash instead of Lender Conversion Shares by paying to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date (as defined below) a cash amount equal to the number of Lender Conversion Shares set forth in the applicable Lender Conversion Notice multiplied by the highest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock that occurs during the period beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred and ending on the date of the applicable Lender Conversion Notice. In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.2. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender's right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower's failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Notes as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

4.3.              Fundamental Default Remedies . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in addition to all other remedies set forth herein, the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount shall be added to the Outstanding Balance upon Lender's delivery to Borrower of a notice (which notice Lender may deliver to Borrower at any time following the occurrence of a Fundamental Default) setting forth its election to declare a Fundamental Default and the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount that will be added to the Outstanding Balance.

4.4.              C ertain Additional Rights . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event Borrower fails to make any payment or otherwise to deliver any Conversion Shares as and when required under this Note, then (i) the Lender Conversion Price for all Lender Conversions occurring after the date of such failure to pay shall equal the lower of the Lender Conversion Price applicable to any Lender Conversion and the Market Price as of any applicable date of Conversion, and (ii) the true-up provisions Of Section 1 1 below shall apply to all Lender Conversions that occur after the date of such failure to pay, provided that all references to the "Installment Notice" in Section I I shall be replaced with references to a "Lender Conversion Notice" for purposes Of this Section 4.4, all references to "Installment Conversion Shares" in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to "Lender Conversion Shares" for purposes of this Section 4.4, and all references to the "Installment Conversion Price" in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to the "Lender Conversion Price" for purposes of this Section 4.4.

  4  

 

 

4.5.              Cross Default . A breach or default by Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other Agreements (as defined below) shall, at the option of Lender, be considered an Event of Default under this Note, in which event Lender shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of Lender under the terms of this Note. "Other Agreements" means, collectively, (a) all existing and future agreements and instruments between, among or by Borrower (or an affiliate), on the one hand, and Lender (or an affiliate), on the other hand, and (b) any financing agreement or a material agreement that affects Borrower's ongoing business operations. For the avoidance of doubt, all existing and future loan transactions between Borrower and Lender and their respective affiliates will be cross-defaulted with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to Lender.

5.                    Unconditional Obligation: NP Offset . Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now has or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments or conversions called for herein in accordance with the terms of this Note.

6.                    Waiver . No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar, No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

Rights Upon Issuance Securities .

7.1. Subsequent Equity Sales . Except with respect to Excluded Securities, if Borrower or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time this Note is outstanding, shall sell or issue any Common Stock to Lender or any third party for a price that is less than the then effective Lender Conversion Price, then such Lender Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced and only reduced to equal such lower issuance price. Except with respect to Excluded Securities, if Borrower or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time this Note is outstanding, shall sell or grant any option to any party to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or issue any Common Stock, preferred shares convertible into Common Stock, or debt, warrants, options or other instruments or securities to Lender or any third party which are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (together herein referred to as "Equity Securities"), including without limitation any Deemed Issuance (as defined herein), at an effective price per share less than the then effective Lender Conversion Price (such issuance, together with any sale of Common Stock, is referred to herein as a "Dilutive Issuance"), then, the Lender Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced and only reduced to equal such lower effective price per share. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lender Conversion Price shall not be reduced pursuant to this Section 7.1 as the result of the issuance of any shares of Common Stock issued in connection with a financing transaction unless such shares of Common Stock are issued pursuant to a convertible debt instrument, warrant or any other variable price security or instrument. If the holder of any Equity Securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments,

  5  

 

 

reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options, or rights per share which are issued in connection with such Dilutive Issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Lender Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Lender Conversion Price on the date Of such Dilutive Issuance, and the then effective Lender Conversion Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal such lower effective price per share. Such adjustments described above to the Lender Conversion Price shall be permanent (subject to additional adjustments under this section), and shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Equity Securities are issued. Borrower shall notify Lender, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Equity Securities subject to this Section 7.1, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price, or other pricing terms (such notice, the "Dilutive Issuance Notice"). For purposes of clarification, whether or not Borrower provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 7.1, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, on the date of such Dilutive Issuance the Lender Conversion Price shall be lowered to equal the applicable effective price per share regardless of whether Borrower or Lender accurately refers to such lower effective price per share in any Installment Notice or Lender Conversion Notice.

7.2. Adjustment of Lender Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of

Common Stock . Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without Limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7.2 occurs during the period that a Lender Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Lender Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

7.3. Other Events . [n the event that Borrower (or any subsidiary) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect Lender from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions Of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting Of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then Borrower's board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Lender Conversion price so as to protect the rights of Lender, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.3 will increase the Lender Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7, provided further that if Lender does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then Borrower's board of directors and Lender shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by Borrower.

8.      Borrower Installments .

8.1. Installment Conversion Price . Subject to the adjustments set forth herein, the conversion price for each Installment Conversion (the "Installment Conversion Price") shall be the lesser of (i) the Lender Conversion Price, and (ii) 70% (the "Conversion Factor") of the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion (the "Market provided that if at any time the average of the three (3) lowest V WAPs in the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding any date of measurement is below SO, 10, then in such event the then-current Conversion Factor shall be reduced to 65% for all future Conversions. In

  6  

 

 

addition to the Default Effect, if any Major Default occurs after the Effective Date and the Conversion Factor has not previously been reduced, the Conversion Factor shall automatically be reduced for all future Conversions by 5% for the first Major Default that occurs after the Effective Date. For example, the first time the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the preceding twenty (20) Trading Days is below $0.10, then the Conversion Factor would be reduced from 70% to 65%. Alternatively, if the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the preceding twenty (20) Trading Days is not below $0.10 but a Major Default pursuant to Section 4. I(iii) has occurred, then for purposes of this example the Conversion Factor would be reduced from 70% to 65%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conversion Factor may not be reduced below 65%.

8.2. Installment Conversions . Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Purchase Price Date and on the same day of each month thereafter until the Maturity Date (each, an "Installment Date"), Borrower shall pay to Lender the applicable Installment Amount due on such date, subject to the provisions of this Section 8. Payments of each Installment Amount may be made (a) in cash, or (b) by converting such Installment Amount into shares of Common Stock ("Installment Conversion Shares", and together with the Lender Conversion Shares, the "Conversion Shares") in accordance with this Section 8 (each an "Installment Conversion", and together with Lender Conversions, a "Conversion") per the following formula: the number of Installment Conversion Shares equals the portion of the applicable Installment Amount being converted divided by the Installment Conversion Price, or (c) by any combination of the foregoing, so long as the cash is delivered to Lender on the applicable Installment Date and the Installment Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower will not be entitled to elect an Installment Conversion with respect to any portion of any applicable Installment Amount and shall be required to pay the entire amount of such Installment Amount in cash if on the applicable Installment Notice Due Date (defined below) there is an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined below), and such failure is not waived in writing by Lender. Moreover, in the event Borrower desires to pay all or any portion of any Installment Amount in cash, it must notify Lender in writing of such election and the portion of the applicable Installment Amount it elects to pay in cash not more than twenty-five (25) or less than fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the applicable Installment Date. If Borrower fails to so notify Lender, it shall not be permitted to elect to pay any portion of such Installment Amount in cash unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing or proposed by Lender in an Installment Notice delivered by Lender to Borrower. Notwithstanding that failure to repay this Note in full by the Maturity Date is an Event of Default, the Installment Dates shall continue after the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 8 until the Outstanding Balance is repaid in full, provided that Lender shall, in Lender's sole discretion, determine the Installment Amount for each Installment Date after the Maturity Date.

8.3.            Allocation of Installment Amounts . Subject to Section 8.2 regarding an Equity Conditions Failure, for each Installment Date (each, an "Installment Notice Due Date"), Borrower may elect to allocate the amount of the applicable Installment Amount between cash and via an Installment Conversion, by email or fax delivery of a notice to Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, an "Installment Notice"), provided, that to be effective, each applicable Installment Notice must be received by Lender not more than twenty-five (25) or less than fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the applicable Installment Notice Due Date. If Lender has not received an Installment Notice within such time period, then Lender may prepare the Installment Notice and deliver the same to Borrower by fax or email. Following its receipt of such Installment Notice, Borrower may either ratify Lender's proposed allocation in the applicable Installment Notice or elect to change the allocation by written notice to Lender by email or fax on or before 12:00 p.m. New York time on the applicable Installment Date, so long as the sum of the cash payments and the amount of Installment Conversions equal the applicable Installment Amount, provided that Lender must approve any increase to the portion of the Installment Amount payable in cash. If Borrower fails to notify Lender of its election to change the allocation prior to the deadline set forth in the

  7  

 

previous sentence (and seek approval to increase the amount payable in cash), it shall be deemed to have ratified and accepted the allocation set forth in the applicable Installment Notice prepared by Lender. If neither Borrower nor Lender prepare and deliver to the other party an Installment Notice as outlined above, then Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that the entire Installment Amount be converted via an Installment Conversion. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that regardless of which party prepares the applicable Installment Notice, the amounts and calculations set forth thereon are subject to correction or adjustment because of error, mistake, or any adjustment resulting from an Event of Default or other adjustment permitted under the Transaction Documents (an "Adjustment"). Furthermore, no error or mistake in the preparation of such notices, or failure to apply any Adjustment that could have been applied prior to the preparation of an Installment Notice may be deemed a waiver of Lender's right to enforce the terms of any Note, even if such error, mistake, or failure to include an Adjustment arises from Lender's own calculation, Borrower shall de liver the Installment Conversion Shares from any Installment Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below on or before each applicable Installment Date.

9.      Method of Conversion Share Delivery . On or before the close of business on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day following the Installment Date or the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day following the date of delivery of a Lender Conversion Notice, as applicable (the "Delivery Date"), Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender or its broker (as designated in the Lender Conversion Notice), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above.

10, Conversion Delays . If Borrower fails to deliver Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares in accordance with the timeframes stated in Sections 3, 8, 9, or I I, as applicable, Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those Conversion Shares or Title-Up Shares, as applicable, may rescind in whole or in part that particular Conversion attributable to the unsold Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares, with a corresponding increase to the Outstanding Balance (any returned Conversion Amount will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144), In addition, tor each Lender Conversion, in the event that Lender Conversion Shares are not delivered by the fourth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion), a late fee equal to the greater of (a) $500.00 per day and (b) 2% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Lender Conversion shall not exceed 200% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after the fifth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion) until Lender Conversion Share delivery is made; and such late fee will be added to the Outstanding Balance (such fees, the "Conversion Delay Late Fees"). For illustration purposes only, if Lender delivers a Lender Conversion Notice to Borrower pursuant to which Borrower is required to deliver 100,000 Lender Conversion Shares to Lender and on the Delivery Date such Lender Conversion Shares have a Lender Conversion Share Value of $20,000.00 (assuming a Closing Sale Price on the Delivery Date of $0.20 per share of Common Stock), then in such event a Conversion Delay Late Fee in the amount of $500.00 per day (the greater of $500.00 per day and $20,000.00 multiplied by 2%, which is $400.00) would be added to the Outstanding Balance of the Note until such Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender. For purposes of this example, if the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender twenty (20) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $10,000.00 (20 days multiplied by $500.00 per day). If the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender one hundred (100) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $40,000.00 (100 days multiplied by $500.00 per day, but capped at 200% of the Lender Conversion Share Value).

  8  

 

 

l l . True-Up . On the date that is twenty (20) Trading Days (a "True-Up Date") from each date Borrower delivers Free Trading (as defined below) Installment Conversion Shares to Lender, there shall be a true-up where Borrower shall deliver to Lender additional Installment Conversion Shares

("True-Up Shares") if the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is less than the Installment Conversion Price used in the applicable Installment Notice. In such event, Borrower shall deliver to Lender Within five (5) Trading Days of the True-Up Date (the "True-Up Share Delivery Date") a number of True-Up Shares equal to the difference between the number of Installment Conversion Shares that would have been delivered to Lender on the True-Up Date based on the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date and the number of Installment Conversion Shares originally delivered to Lender pursuant to the applicable Installment Notice. [f the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is higher than the Installment Conversion Price set forth in the applicable Installment Notice and the number of Installment Conversion Shares delivered exceeds the number of True-Up Shares, then the excess will be applied toward the next Installment Conversion Shares to be issued by Borrower hereunder (unless the Outstanding Balance has been reduced to zero, in which case Lender will return such excess shares to Borrower). For the convenience of Borrower only, Lender may, in its sole discretion, deliver to Borrower a notice (pursuant to a form of notice substantially in the form attached hereto as C ) informing Borrower of the number of True-Up Shares it is obligated to deliver to Lender as of any given True-Up Date, provided that if Lender does not deliver any such notice Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to deliver True-Up Shares pursuant to this Section I I. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower fails to deliver any required True-Up Shares on or before any applicable True-Up Share Delivery Date, then in such event the Outstanding Balance of this Note will automatically increase (under Lender's and Borrower's expectations that any such increase will tack back to the Purchase Price Date 'for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144) by a sum equal to the number of True-Up Shares deliverable as of the applicable True-Up Date multiplied by the Market Price for the Common Stock as of the applicable True-Up Date.

 

12.             Ownership Limitation . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time Lender shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause Lender (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the "Maximum Percentage"), then Borrower must not issue to Lender shares of the Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. The shares of Common Stock issuable to Lender that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the "Ownership Limitation Shares". Borrower will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Lender. From time to time, Lender may notify Borrower in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Lender without causing Lender to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to Lender, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the term "4.99%" above shall be replaced with "9.99%" at such time as the Market Capitalization of the Common Stock is less than $1. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term G '4.99%" is replaced with "9.99%" pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to "9.99%" shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by Lender as set forth below. By written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof The foregoing 61 -day notice requirement is enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all affiliates and assigns of Lender.

13.             Payment of Collection Costs . If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note, then Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by Lender for such collection, enforcement or action including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements. Borrower also agrees to pay for any costs, fees or charges of its transfer agent that are charged to Lender pursuant to any Conversion or issuance of shares pursuant to this Note.

14.             Opini on of Counsel . In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender shall have such opinion provided by its counsel.

15.             Governing This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement to determine the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.

18.             Amendments . The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

19, Assignments . Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent Of Borrower.

20.             Time of the Essence . Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Note and the documents and instruments entered into in connection herewith.

  10  

 

 

22.             Liquidated Damages . Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Note, Lender's damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, Lender and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, default interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not penalties but instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Lender's and Borrower's expectations that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Closing Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144).

2. Exercise of Warrant .

2. I. General .

(a)                  This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time commencing on the Issue Date and ending on the Expiration Date, such exercise shall be effectuated by submitting to Company (either by delivery to Company or by email or facsimile transmission) a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise substantially in the form attached to this Warrant as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Exercise").

For the purposes of this Warrant, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

Adjusted Price of the Common Stock" shall mean the lower of (i) the Conversion Price (as defined in the Note), as such Conversion Price may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Note (solely for the purpose of determining the then-current Conversion Price under this definition of "Adjusted Price of the Common Stock," each cashless exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed a conversion under the Note), and (ii) the Market Price (as defined in the Note), without regard to whether the Note remains outstanding or has been fully repaid, cancelled or otherwise retired, on any relevant Exercise Date.

"Current Market Value" shall mean an amount equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock (as defined below), multiplied by the number of Exercise Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise.

"Closing Price" shall mean the 4:00 P.M. last sale price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on the relevant Trading Day(s), as reported by Bloomberg LP (or if that service is not then reporting the relevant information regarding the Common Stock, a comparable reporting service of national reputation selected by Investor and reasonably acceptable to Company) ("Bloomberg") for the relevant date.

”Exercise Price" shall mean $0.45 per share of Common Stock, as the same may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant.

(d)                  Upon the appropriate payment to Company, if any, of the Exercise

Price for the Delivery Shares, Company shall promptly, but in no case later than the date that is five (S) Trading Days following the date the Exercise Price is paid to Company (or with respect to a "cashless exercise," the date that is five (5) Trading Days following the Exercise Date) (the "Delivery Date"), issue and deliver to Investor or its broker (as designated in the Notice of Exercise), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate, registered in the name of Investor or its designee, representing the applicable number of Delivery Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, Company has not met its obligation to deliver Delivery Shares within the required timeframe set forth above unless Investor or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Delivery Shares no later than the close of business on the latest possible delivery date pursuant to the terms set forth above.

(e)                   If Delivery Shares are delivered later than as required under subsection (d) immediately above, Company agrees to pay, in addition to all other remedies available to Investor in the Transaction Documents, a late charge equal to the greater of (i) $500.00 and (ii) 2% of the product of (I) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to Investor on a timely basis and to which Investor is entitled multiplied by (2) the V WAP of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which Company could have issued such shares of Common Stock to Investor without violating this Warrant, per Trading Day until such Delivery Shares are delivered (the "Late Fees"). Company shall pay any Late Fees incurred under this subsection in immediately available funds upon demand; provided, however, that, at the option of Investor (without notice to Company), such amount owed may be added to the principal amount of the Note. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to Investor, in the event that Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Delivery Shares as required under subsection (d) immediately above, Investor may revoke all or part of the relevant Warrant exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to Company, whereupon Company and Investor shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion of this Warrant, except that the Late Fees described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to Company. Finally, as liquidated damages in the event Company fails to deliver any Delivery Shares to Investor for a period of ninety (90) days from the Delivery Date, Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to stop the accumulation of the Late Fees as of such date and require Company to pay to Investor a cash amount equal to (i) the total amount of ail Late Fees that have accumulated prior to the date of Investor's election, plus (ii) the product of the number of Delivery Shares deliverable to Investor on such date if it were to exercise this Warrant with respect to the remaining number of Exercise Shares as of such date multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock on the Delivery Date (the "Cash Settlement Amount"). At such time that Investor makes an election to require Company to pay to it the Cash Settlement Amount, such obligation of Company shall be a valid and binding obligation of Company and shall for all purposes be deemed to be a debt obligation of Company owed to Investor as of the date it makes such election. Upon Company's payment of the Cash Settlement Amount to Investor, the Warrant shall be deemed to have been satisfied and Investor shall return the original Warrant to Company for cancellation. In additions and for the avoidance of doubt, even if Company could not deliver the number of Delivery Shares deliverable to Investor if it were to exercise this Warrant with respect to the remaining number Of Exercise Shares on the date of repayment due to the provisions of Section 2.2, the provisions Of Section 2.2 Will not apply with respect to Company's payment of the Cash Settlement Amount.

The shares of Common Stock issuable to Investor that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the "Ownership Limitation Shares". Company will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Investor. From time to time, Investor may notify Company in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Investor without causing Investor to exceed the Maximum Percentage.

Additionally, following the occurrence of a Dilutive Issuance, all references in this Warrant to "Warrant Shares" shall be a reference to the Warrant Shares as increased pursuant to subsection (b) above, and all references in this Warrant to "Exercise Price" shall be a reference to the Exercise Price as reduced pursuant to subsection (a) above, as the same may occur from time to time hereunder.

5.4. Notice of Adjustment .

THIS LEASE AGREEMENT (this '(Lease") is entered into as of October, 2015, between The Atrium Remains the Same, LLC, ("Landlord"), and UMED Holdings, Inc. ("Tenant").

1. BASICPROVISIONS. The definitions and basic provisions set forth in the Lease Information (the “Lease Information") executed by Landlord and Tenant contemporaneously herewith and attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

2. LEASE GRANT; TERM . Landlord hereby grants Tenant the right TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Premises for term specified in the lease Information (the "Term") to be continuously used and occupied during the term of this Lease by Tenant only for the purpose specified in the Lease Information and not otherwise. If this Lease is executed before the Premises become vacant, or any improvements that are the obligation of Landlord as described herein are not completed, or if any present tenant or occupant of the premises holds over, and Landlord cannot acquire possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder, and Tenant agrees to accept possession of the Premises at such time as Landlord is able to tender same. Landlord hereby waives the payment of rent covering any period prior to tender of possession of the Premises to Tenant hereunder. Except to the extent modified by Landlord's express assumption of construction obligations, if any, in an exhibit attached to this Lease, the Premises are being leased AS IS and WITH ALL FAULTS, and Tenant hereby expressly accepts the Premises in present condition, and Landlord makes no warranty of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the Premises (without limitation, Landlord makes no warranty as to the habitability or suitability or fitness for a particular use or purpose). Tenant has not relied, and hereby waives any claims or defenses of reliance, on any oral representations or statements made by Landlord about the Premises or this Lease.

3.

(a)                  Payment. Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord Rent, without deduction or set Off, at Landlord's Address (or such other address as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant). Base Rental shall be payable monthly in advance. Base Rental for any fractional month at the beginning of the Term shall be prorated based on 1/365 of the current annual Base Rental for each day of the partial month this Lease is in effect, and shall be due on the Commencement Date. Tenant's covenant to pay rent is an independent covenant. If Landlord shall at any time or times accept rent to which Landlord is entitled hereunder after the same shall become due and payable, such acceptance shall not excuse or delay upon subsequent occasions, or constitute, or be construed as, a waiver of any or all of Landlord's rights hereunder. Tenant's obligation for the payment of rent shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

(b)                  The parties acknowledge that Tenant's failure to promptly pay sums due under this lease may cause Landlord to incur unanticipated costs. The exact amount of such costs are impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges which may be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, deed of trust, or mortgage encumbering the Premises. Therefore, if any sum due under this lease is not received by Landlord within ten days of its due date, Tenant shall be assessed and agrees to pay a Late Charge equal to of the past due amount. If any check tendered in payment of any sum due from Tenant under this lease is returned for any reason, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administrative fee of $100 in addition to any charges levied or assessed by the banking institution as restitution for handling the returned check. In the event more than one check is returned per calendar year, Landlord may require payment to be made by cashier's check, money order, or wire transfer.

(c)                  Electrical. Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord an amount equal to the product of (i) the cost of all electricity used by the Building ("Electrical Costs"), multiplied by (ii) Tenant's Proportionate Share, as specified in Lease Information . Such amount shall be payable in monthly installments due on the first (1st) day of each calendar month. Each installment shall be based either on actual billings paid by Landlord, or

  5  

 

Landlord's estimate of the amount due for each month. From time to time during any calendar year, Landlord may estimate and re-estimate the Electrical Costs to be due by Tenant for that calendar year and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Electrical Costs payable by Tenant shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Electrical costs as estimated by Landlord.

(c)                Base Rental Amount. The Base Rental payable under Section 3(a) shall be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the following provisions (any such adjustment is hereinafter referred to as "Base Rental Adjustment. Base Rental includes the Basic Cost Component, the Tax Component, and the Utilities Component for the Base Year as defined in the I ease Information .

 

Prior to January 1 of each calendar year during the term Of this Lease, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practical, Landlord shall provide an estimate of Tenant's share of increases in Basic Costs, Tax Costs, and Utilities Costs for the forthcoming calendar year, (calculated separately for each of Basic Costs, Tax Cost, and Utilities Costs), equal to the product of (A) the difference between the Base Year Basic Costs, Tax Costs, and Utilities Costs, and the coming calendar year's Basic Costs, Tax Costs, and Utilities Costs multiplied by (B) the Tenant's Proportionate Share of the property as specified in læase Info rmation and further adjusted in accordance with Section 3(h). Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, the amount Landlord estimates to be Tenant's share of increases in costs. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment when actual Basic Costs, Tax Costs, and Utilities Costs are available for each calendar year.

(d)                Basic Costs. "Basic Costs" as that term is used herein, shall consist of all Operating Expenses (defined below) of the Property as reasonably allocated by Landlord, computed on a cash basis and determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. "Operating Expenses," as that term is used herein means all expenses and disbursements of every kind, but excluding charges separately paid by other Tenants of the Property, or other third parties, and any Tax Costs and Utilities Costs (subject to the limitations set forth below) which Landlord incurs, pays or becomes obligated to pay in connection with the ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Project, determined in accordance with generally accepted federal income tax basis accounting principles consistently applied, including but not limited to the following:

If the present method of taxation changes so that in lieu of the whole or any part of any Taxes levied on the Project, there is levied on Landlord a capital tax directly on the rents received therefrom or a franchise tax, assessment, or charge based, in whole or in part, upon such rents for the Project, then all such taxes, assessments, or charges, or the part thereof so based, shall be deemed to be included within the term "Tax Costs" for the purposes hereof. Reasonable consultation, accounting, and legal fees and Other reasonable fees and costs resulting from any challenge of tax assessments reasonably allocated by Landlord shall be included in Tax Costs. It is agreed that Tenant will be responsible for ad valorem taxes on its personal property and on the value of the leasehold improvements in the Premises to the extent that the same exceed Building Standard Improvements (and if the taxing authorities do not separately assess Tenant's leasehold improvements, Landlord may make a reasonable allocation of the ad valorem taxes allocated to the Property to give effect to this sentence). All taxes, assessments and governmental charges shall be included in Tax Costs in the calendar year in which such taxes, assessments or governmental charges are payable; provided, however, in the case of special taxes and assessments which may be payable in installments, only the amount Of each installment accruing during a calendar year shall be included in the Tax Costs for such year. Tenant hereby agrees that any and all protests before the applicable Appraisal Review Board shall be conducted, if at all, solely by Landlord, and Tenant shall have no right to any such protest.

(i)                   Calculat ion of Charges. Landlord and Tenant agree that each provision of this Lease for determining charges, amounts and expenses, including, but not limited to, Electrical Costs and Tenant's Proportionate Share of Excess Operating Costs, to be paid by Tenant, is commercially reasonable, and as to each such charge, expense or amount, constitutes a "method by which the charge is to be computed" for purposes of Section 93.012 (Assessment of Charges) of the Texas Property Code, as such section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded.

4.                    DELINQUENT PAYMENT; HANDLING CHARGES . All payments required of Tenant hereunder shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the maximum lawful rate.

Landlord and Tenant agree that such deductions shall include, without limitation, all damages and losses that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach of this Lease by Tenant.

This Warrant shall be void and of no effect and all rights hereunder shall cease at 5:00 p.m., Fort Worth, Texas time on October 31, 2020, except to the extent theretofore exercised; provided that in the case of the earlier dissolution of the Company, this Warrant shall become void on the date fixed for such dissolution.

1.                    Covenants of the Company . The Company covenants that, while this Warrant is exercisable (a) it will reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of the Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of the Common Stock to provide for the delivery of the shares of the Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, and (b) that all shares of the Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will be fully paid and non-assessable.

2.                    Protection Against Dilution, Etc. In any of the following events, occurring after the date of the issuance of this Warrant, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of shares of the Common Stock to be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the purchase price per share of the Common Stock to be paid, so as to maintain the proportionate interest of the Holder as of the date hereof (a) recapitalization of the Company through a split-up or reverse split of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a greater or lesser number, as the case may be, or (b) declaration of a dividend on the shares of the Common Stock, payable in shares of the Common Stock or other securities of the Company convertible into shares of the Common Stock, or (c) any of the events described in Paragraph 4 hereof.

5.                    Stockholders’ Rights .

6.                    Manner of Exercise . In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant, duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or, in blank, at the office of the Company, accompanied by (a) written Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (the “Exercise Notice”) that the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant or, if less than the entire amount thereof is to be exercised, the portion thereof to be exercised, and (b) payment of the purchase price of the shares of the Common Stock to be purchased on such exercise, in cash or by cashier’s or certified check.

In any case, the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that (A) any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company, (B) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of warrants, and (C) and in no case shall the Holder or its Affiliates acquire in excess of 9.999% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock or the voting power of the Company.

PROMISSORY NOTE

$36,000.00 March 8, 2016

After date, without grace, for value received, UMED HOLDINGS, INC., a Texas corporation having its principal office and place of business in Tarrant County, Texas (the “Maker”) hereby promises to pay to the order of PETER C. WILSON a resident of Tarrant County, Texas (the “Payee”) the original principal amount of THIRTY-SIX THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($36,000.00), with interest on the unpaid principal of this Note, from the date hereof, at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum. All payments hereunder are payable in lawful money of the United States of America at Maker’s office, 8851 Camp Bowie West, Suite 240, Fort Worth, TX 76116, or such other place as the Payee may designate in writing to the Maker.

Interest on this Note shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed and on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days, unless the maximum legal interest rate would thereby be exceeded, in which event, to the extent necessary to avoid exceeding such maximum rate, interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable calendar year in which it accrued. It is the intention of the Maker and the Payee to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. It is therefore agreed that (i) the aggregate of all interest and other charges constituting interest under applicable law and contracted for, chargeable or receivable under this Note or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction, shall never exceed the maximum amount of interest, nor produce a rate in excess of the maximum contract rate of interest the Payee may charge the Maker under applicable law and in regard to which the Maker may not successfully assert the claim or defense of usury, and (ii) if any excess interest is provided for, it shall be deemed a mistake and the same shall be refunded to the Maker or credited on the unpaid principal balance hereof and this Note shall be automatically deemed reformed so as to permit only the collection of the maximum legal contract rate and amount of interest.

. Interest, computed upon the unpaid principal balance hereof, shall be due and payable prior to payment of any principal. The Maker shall only be obligated to make payments of interest and principal hereunder from time to time, as cash flow of the Maker is sufficient to make any payments hereunder, as determined by the Maker.

The Payee has the right, at any time after the date hereof, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid principal and accrued interest of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the common stock of the Payee at a price per share equal to $0.15.

This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty by the Maker. Prepayments shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to principal. Any interest on any prepaid installment of principal shall immediately cease to accrue.

Any check, draft, money order or other instrument given in payment of all or any portion of this Note may be accepted by the Payee or any other holder hereof and handled in collection in the customary manner, but the same shall not constitute payment hereunder or diminish any rights of the Payee or any other holder hereof, except to the extent that actual cash proceeds of such instrument are unconditionally received by the Payee or any other holder hereof and applied to the indebtedness as herein provided.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal law.

Exhibit 10.25

 

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

Effective Date: April 1, 2016 U.S. $224,000.00

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, UMED Holdings, Inc. , a Texas corporation (“ Borrower ”), promises to pay to Tonaquint, Inc. , a Utah corporation, or its successors or assigns (“ Lender ”), $224,000.00 and any interest, fees, charges, and late fees on the date that is ten (10) months after the Purchase Price Date (as defined below) (the “ Maturity Date ”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance (as defined below) at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the same is paid in full. This Convertible Promissory Note (this “ Note ”) is issued and made effective as of April 1, 2016 (the “ Effective Date ”). For purposes hereof, the “ Outstanding Balance ” of this Note means, as of any date of determination, the Purchase Price (as defined below), as reduced or increased, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof for redemption, conversion, offset, or otherwise, plus any original issue discount (“ OID ”), the Transaction Expense Amount (as defined below), accrued but unpaid interest, collection and enforcements costs (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender, transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes and fees related to Conversions (as defined below), and any other fees or charges (including without limitation late charges) incurred under this Note. This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated April 1, 2016, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), by and between Borrower and Lender. All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note. Certain capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement. Certain other capitalized terms used herein are defined in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

This Note carries an OID of $20,000.00. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay $4,000.00 to Lender to cover Lender’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of this Note (the “ Transaction Expense Amount ”), all of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of this Note. The purchase price for this Note and the Warrant (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall be $200,000.00 (the “ Purchase Price ”), computed as follows: $224,000.00 original principal balance, less the OID, less the Transaction Expense Amount. The Purchase Price shall be payable by Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds. For purposes hereof, the term “ Purchase Price Date ” means the date the Purchase Price is delivered by Lender to Borrower.

1.                    Payment; Prepayment . Provided there is an Outstanding Balance, on each Installment Date (as defined below), Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the Installment Amount (as defined below) due on such Installment Date in accordance with Section 8. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Borrower has not received a Lender Conversion Notice (as defined below) or an Installment Notice (as defined below) from Lender where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered and so long as no Event of Default has occurred since the Effective Date (whether declared by Lender or undeclared), then Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than five (5) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender to prepay the Outstanding Balance of this Note, in full, in accordance with this Section 1. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “ Optional Prepayment Notice ”) shall be delivered to Lender at its 

   

 

registered address and shall state: (y) that Borrower is exercising its right to prepay this Note, and (z) the date of prepayment, which shall be not less than five (5) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “ Optional Prepayment Date ”), Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of Lender as may be specified by Lender in writing to Borrower. If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note, Borrower shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash (the “ Optional Prepayment Amount ”) equal to 125% multiplied by the then Outstanding Balance of this Note. In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender prior to the Optional Prepayment Date or without delivering an Optional Prepayment Notice to Lender as set forth herein without Lender’s prior written consent, the Optional Prepayment Amount shall not be deemed to have been paid to Lender until the Optional Prepayment Date. Moreover, in such event the Optional Prepayment Liquidated Damages Amount will automatically be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note on the day Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender. In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount without an Optional Prepayment Notice, then the Optional Prepayment Date will be deemed to be the date that is five (5) Trading Days from the date that the Optional Prepayment Amount was delivered to Lender. In addition, if Borrower delivers an Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to Lender within two (2) Trading Days following the Optional Prepayment Date, Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay this Note.

2.                    Security . This Note is unsecured.

3.                    Lender Optional Conversion .

3.1.               Lender Conversion Price . Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the conversion price for each Lender Conversion (as defined below) shall be $0.15 (the “ Lender Conversion Price ”).

3.2.               Lender Conversions . Lender has the right at any time on or after the date that is six (6) months from the Purchase Price Date until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, including without limitation (i) until any Optional Prepayment Date (even if Lender has received an Optional Prepayment Notice) or at any time thereafter with respect to any amount that is not prepaid, and (ii) during or after any Fundamental Default Measuring Period, at its election, to convert (each instance of conversion is referred to herein as a “ Lender Conversion ”) all or any part of the Outstanding Balance into shares (“ Lender Conversion Shares ”) of fully paid and non-assessable common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“ Common Stock ”), of Borrower as per the following conversion formula: the number of Lender Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “ Conversion Amount ”) divided by the Lender Conversion Price. Conversion notices in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “ Lender Conversion Notice ”) may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method of Lender’s choice (including but not limited to facsimile, email, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all Lender Conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from Lender. Borrower shall deliver the Lender Conversion Shares from any Lender Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below within five (5) Trading Days of Lender’s delivery of the Lender Conversion Notice to Borrower.

3.3.               Application to Installments . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, including without limitation Section 8 hereof, Lender may, in its sole discretion, apply all or any portion of any Lender Conversion toward any Installment Conversion (as defined below), even if such Installment Conversion is pending, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, by delivering written notice of such election (which notice may be included as part of the applicable Lender Conversion Notice) to Borrower at any date on or prior to the applicable Installment Date. In such event, Borrower may not elect to allocate such portion of the Installment Amount being paid pursuant to this Section 3.3 in the manner prescribed in Section 8.3; rather, Borrower must reduce the applicable Installment Amount by the Conversion Amount described in this Section 3.3.

  2  

 

 

4.                    Defaults and Remedies .

4.1.               Defaults . The following are events of default under this Note (each, an “ Event of Default ”): (i) Borrower shall fail to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable (or payable by Conversion) hereunder; or (ii) Borrower shall fail to deliver any Lender Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof; or (iii) Borrower shall fail to deliver any Installment Conversion Shares (as defined below) or True-Up Shares (as defined below) in accordance with the terms hereof; or (iv) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; or (v) Borrower shall become insolvent or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; or (vi) Borrower shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (vii) Borrower shall file a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); or (viii) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or filed against Borrower; or (ix) Borrower shall default or otherwise fail to observe or perform any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement of Borrower contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, other than those specifically set forth in this Section 4.1; or (x) Borrower shall become delinquent in its filing requirements as a fully-reporting issuer registered with the SEC or shall fail to timely file all required quarterly and annual reports and any other filings that are necessary to enable Lender to sell Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares pursuant to Rule 144; or (xi) any representation, warranty or other statement made or furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender herein, in any Transaction Document, or otherwise in connection with the issuance of this Note shall be false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished; or (xii) the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction without Lender’s prior written consent; provided, however, that if Borrower has repaid the entire Outstanding Balance prior to such Fundamental Transaction, then Lender’s consent shall not be required; or (xiii) Borrower shall fail to maintain the Share Reserve as required under the Purchase Agreement; or (xiv) Borrower effectuates a reverse split of its Common Stock without twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to Borrower; or (xv) any money judgment, writ or similar process shall be entered or filed against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than $100,000, and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of twenty (20) calendar days unless otherwise consented to by Lender and not including any money judgment, writ or similar process filed or entered in connection with any promissory notes issued by Borrower prior to the date hereof in connection with Hawaiian real estate, provided that such notes are not amended following the date hereof; or (xvi) Borrower shall fail to deliver to Lender original signature pages to all Transaction Documents within five (5) Trading Days of the Purchase Price Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the occurrence of an event described in Section 4.1(ii) or (iii) shall not be considered an Event of Default if delivery of the applicable Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares is made within five (5) days of the date such shares are required to be delivered; provided, however , that the foregoing right to cure may only be applied with respect to two (2) late deliveries of shares; and (B) the occurrence of an event described in Section 4.1(ix), (x), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xiv), (xv), or (xvi) shall not be considered an Event of Default if such event is cured within ten (10) days of Lender’s delivery of written notice to Borrower informing Borrower of the occurrence of such event.

4.2.               Remedies . Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall within one (1) Trading Day deliver written notice thereof via facsimile, email or reputable overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (an “ Event of Default Notice ”) to Lender. At any time and from time to time after the earlier of Lender’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and Lender becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount (as defined hereafter). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, elect to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (as defined below) (subject to the limitation set forth below) via written notice to Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance shall not be immediately due and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the

  3  

 

avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the Default Effect pursuant to this sentence, it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable at any time and no such election by Lender shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable as set forth herein unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). For purposes hereof, the “ Default Effect ” is calculated by multiplying the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred by (i) 15% for each occurrence of any Major Default, or (ii) 5% for each occurrence of any Minor Default, and then adding the resulting product to the Outstanding Balance as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred, with the sum of the foregoing then becoming the Outstanding Balance under this Note as of the date the applicable Event of Default occurred; provided that the Default Effect may only be applied three (3) times hereunder with respect to Major Defaults and three (3) times hereunder with respect to Minor Defaults; and provided further that the Default Effect shall not apply to any Event of Default pursuant to Section 4.1(ii) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (iv), (v), (vii), (vii) or (viii) of Section 4.1, the Outstanding Balance as of the date of acceleration shall become immediately and automatically due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount, without any written notice required by Lender. The “ Mandatory Default Amount ” means the greater of (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by the Installment Conversion Price (as defined below) on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is demanded, multiplied by the volume weighted average price (the “ VWAP ”) on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is demanded, or (ii) the Default Effect. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (“ Default Interest ”); provided, however , that no Default Interest shall accrue during the Fundamental Default Measuring Period (as defined below). Additionally, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower may, at its option, pay any Lender Conversion in cash instead of Lender Conversion Shares by paying to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date (as defined below) a cash amount equal to the number of Lender Conversion Shares set forth in the applicable Lender Conversion Notice multiplied by the highest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock that occurs during the period beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred and ending on the date of the applicable Lender Conversion Notice. In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.2. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Notes as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

4.3.               Fundamental Default Remedies . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in addition to all other remedies set forth herein, the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount shall be added to the Outstanding Balance upon Lender’s delivery to Borrower of a notice (which notice Lender may deliver to Borrower at any time following the occurrence of a Fundamental Default) setting forth its election to declare a Fundamental Default and the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount that will be added to the Outstanding Balance.

  4  

 

4.4.               Certain Additional Rights . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event Borrower fails to make any payment or otherwise to deliver any Conversion Shares as and when required under this Note, then (i) the Lender Conversion Price for all Lender Conversions occurring after the date of such failure to pay shall equal the lower of the Lender Conversion Price applicable to any Lender Conversion and the Market Price as of any applicable date of Conversion, and (ii) the true-up provisions of Section 11 below shall apply to all Lender Conversions that occur after the date of such failure to pay, provided that all references to the “Installment Notice” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to a “Lender Conversion Notice” for purposes of this Section 4.4, all references to “Installment Conversion Shares” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to “Lender Conversion Shares” for purposes of this Section 4.4, and all references to the “Installment Conversion Price” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to the “Lender Conversion Price” for purposes of this Section 4.4.

4.5.               Cross Default . A breach or default by Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other Agreements (as defined below) shall, at the option of Lender, be considered an Event of Default under this Note, in which event Lender shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of Lender under the terms of this Note. “ Other Agreements ” means, collectively, (a) all existing and future agreements and instruments between, among or by Borrower (or an affiliate), on the one hand, and Lender (or an affiliate), on the other hand, and (b) any financing agreement or a material agreement that affects Borrower’s ongoing business operations. For the avoidance of doubt, all existing and future loan transactions between Borrower and Lender and their respective affiliates will be cross-defaulted with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to Lender.

5.                    Unconditional Obligation; No Offset . Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower not subject to offset, deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now has or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments or conversions called for herein in accordance with the terms of this Note.

6.                    Waiver . No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

7.                    Rights Upon Issuance of Securities .

7.1.               Subsequent Equity Sales . Except with respect to Excluded Securities, if Borrower or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time this Note is outstanding, shall sell or issue any Common Stock to Lender or any third party for a price that is less than the then effective Lender Conversion Price, then such Lender Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced and only reduced to equal such lower issuance price. Except with respect to Excluded Securities, if Borrower or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time this Note is outstanding, shall sell or grant any option to any party to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or issue any Common Stock, preferred shares convertible into Common Stock, or debt, warrants, options or other instruments or securities to Lender or any third party which are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (together herein referred to as “ Equity Securities ”), including without limitation any Deemed Issuance (as defined herein), at an effective price per share less than the then effective Lender Conversion Price (such issuance, together with any sale of Common Stock, is referred to herein as a “ Dilutive Issuance ”), then, the Lender Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced and only reduced to equal such lower effective price per share. For the

  5  

 

avoidance of doubt, the Lender Conversion Price shall not be reduced pursuant to this Section 7.1 as the result of the issuance of any shares of Common Stock issued in connection with a financing transaction unless such shares of Common Stock are issued pursuant to a convertible debt instrument, warrant or any other variable price security or instrument. If the holder of any Equity Securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options, or rights per share which are issued in connection with such Dilutive Issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Lender Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Lender Conversion Price on the date of such Dilutive Issuance, and the then effective Lender Conversion Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal such lower effective price per share. Such adjustments described above to the Lender Conversion Price shall be permanent (subject to additional adjustments under this section), and shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Equity Securities are issued. Borrower shall notify Lender, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Equity Securities subject to this Section 7.1, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price, or other pricing terms (such notice, the “ Dilutive Issuance Notice ”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not Borrower provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 7.1, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, on the date of such Dilutive Issuance the Lender Conversion Price shall be lowered to equal the applicable effective price per share regardless of whether Borrower or Lender accurately refers to such lower effective price per share in any Installment Notice or Lender Conversion Notice.

7.2.               Adjustment of Lender Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock . Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7.2 occurs during the period that a Lender Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Lender Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

7.3.               Other Events . In the event that Borrower (or any subsidiary) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect Lender from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then Borrower’s board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Lender Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of Lender, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.3 will increase the Lender Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7, provided further that if Lender does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then Borrower’s board of directors and Lender shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by Borrower.

8.                    Borrower Installments .

8.1.               Installment Conversion Price . Subject to the adjustments set forth herein, the conversion price for each Installment Conversion (the “ Installment Conversion Price ”) shall be the lesser of (i) the Lender Conversion Price, and (ii) 70% (the “ Conversion Factor ”) of the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately

  6  

 

preceding the applicable Conversion (the “ Market Price ”), provided that if at any time the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately preceding any date of measurement is below $0.05, then in such event the then-current Conversion Factor shall be reduced by 10% for all future Conversions. In addition to the Default Effect, if any Major Default occurs after the Effective Date and the Conversion Factor has not previously been reduced, the Conversion Factor shall automatically be reduced for all future Conversions by 5% for the first Major Default that occurs after the Effective Date. For example, the first time the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the preceding twenty (20) Trading Days is below $0.05, then the Conversion Factor would be reduced from 70% to 60%. Alternatively, if the average of the three (3) lowest VWAPs in the preceding twenty (20) Trading Days is not below $0.05 but a Major Default pursuant to Section 4.1(iii) has occurred, then for purposes of this example the Conversion Factor would be reduced from 70% to 65%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conversion Factor may not be reduced below 60%.

8.2.               Installment Conversions . Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Purchase Price Date and on the same day of each month thereafter until the Maturity Date (each, an “ Installment Date ”), Borrower shall pay to Lender the applicable Installment Amount due on such date, subject to the provisions of this Section 8. Payments of each Installment Amount may be made (a) in cash, or (b) by converting such Installment Amount into shares of Common Stock (“ Installment Conversion Shares ”, and together with the Lender Conversion Shares, the “ Conversion Shares ”) in accordance with this Section 8 (each an “ Installment Conversion ”, and together with Lender Conversions, a “ Conversion ”) per the following formula: the number of Installment Conversion Shares equals the portion of the applicable Installment Amount being converted divided by the Installment Conversion Price, or (c) by any combination of the foregoing, so long as the cash is delivered to Lender on the applicable Installment Date and the Installment Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower will not be entitled to elect an Installment Conversion with respect to any portion of any applicable Installment Amount and shall be required to pay the entire amount of such Installment Amount in cash if on the applicable Installment Notice Due Date (defined below) there is an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined below), and such failure is not waived in writing by Lender. Moreover, in the event Borrower desires to pay all or any portion of any Installment Amount in cash, it must notify Lender in writing of such election and the portion of the applicable Installment Amount it elects to pay in cash not more than twenty-five (25) or less than fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the applicable Installment Date. If Borrower fails to so notify Lender, it shall not be permitted to elect to pay any portion of such Installment Amount in cash unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing or proposed by Lender in an Installment Notice delivered by Lender to Borrower. Notwithstanding that failure to repay this Note in full by the Maturity Date is an Event of Default, the Installment Dates shall continue after the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 8 until the Outstanding Balance is repaid in full, provided that Lender shall, in Lender’s sole discretion, determine the Installment Amount for each Installment Date after the Maturity Date.

8.3.               Allocation of Installment Amounts . Subject to Section 8.2 regarding an Equity Conditions Failure, for each Installment Date (each, an “ Installment Notice Due Date ”), Borrower may elect to allocate the amount of the applicable Installment Amount between cash and via an Installment Conversion, by email or fax delivery of a notice to Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, an “ Installment Notice ”), provided, that to be effective, each applicable Installment Notice must be received by Lender not more than twenty-five (25) or less than fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the applicable Installment Notice Due Date. If Lender has not received an Installment Notice within such time period, then Lender may prepare the Installment Notice and deliver the same to Borrower by fax or email. Following its receipt of such Installment Notice, Borrower may either ratify Lender’s proposed allocation in the applicable Installment Notice or elect to change the allocation by written notice to Lender by email or fax on or before 12:00 p.m. New York time on the applicable

  7  

 

Installment Date, so long as the sum of the cash payments and the amount of Installment Conversions equal the applicable Installment Amount, provided that Lender must approve any increase to the portion of the Installment Amount payable in cash. If Borrower fails to notify Lender of its election to change the allocation prior to the deadline set forth in the previous sentence (and seek approval to increase the amount payable in cash), it shall be deemed to have ratified and accepted the allocation set forth in the applicable Installment Notice prepared by Lender. If neither Borrower nor Lender prepare and deliver to the other party an Installment Notice as outlined above, then Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that the entire Installment Amount be converted via an Installment Conversion. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that regardless of which party prepares the applicable Installment Notice, the amounts and calculations set forth thereon are subject to correction or adjustment because of error, mistake, or any adjustment resulting from an Event of Default or other adjustment permitted under the Transaction Documents (an “ Adjustment ”). Furthermore, no error or mistake in the preparation of such notices, or failure to apply any Adjustment that could have been applied prior to the preparation of an Installment Notice may be deemed a waiver of Lender’s right to enforce the terms of any Note, even if such error, mistake, or failure to include an Adjustment arises from Lender’s own calculation. Borrower shall deliver the Installment Conversion Shares from any Installment Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below on or before each applicable Installment Date.

9.                    Method of Conversion Share Delivery . On or before the close of business on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day following the Installment Date or the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day following the date of delivery of a Lender Conversion Notice, as applicable (the “ Delivery Date ”), Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender or its broker (as designated in the Lender Conversion Notice), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above.

10.                 Conversion Delays . If Borrower fails to deliver Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares in accordance with the timeframes stated in Sections 3, 8, 9, or 11, as applicable, Lender, at any time prior to selling all of those Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares, as applicable, may rescind in whole or in part that particular Conversion attributable to the unsold Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares, with a corresponding increase to the Outstanding Balance (any returned Conversion Amount will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144). In addition, for each Lender Conversion, in the event that Lender Conversion Shares are not delivered by the fourth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion), a late fee equal to the greater of (a) $500.00 per day and (b) 2% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Lender Conversion shall not exceed 200% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after the fifth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion) until Lender Conversion Share delivery is made; and such late fee will be added to the Outstanding Balance (such fees, the “ Conversion Delay Late Fees ”). For illustration purposes only, if Lender delivers a Lender Conversion Notice to Borrower pursuant to which Borrower is required to deliver 100,000 Lender Conversion Shares to Lender and on the Delivery Date such Lender Conversion Shares have a Lender Conversion Share Value of $20,000.00 (assuming a Closing Sale Price on the Delivery Date of $0.20 per share of Common Stock), then in such event a Conversion Delay Late Fee in the amount of $500.00 per day (the greater of $500.00 per day and $20,000.00 multiplied by 2%, which is $400.00) would be added to the Outstanding Balance of the Note until such Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender. For purposes of this example, if the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender twenty (20) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $10,000.00 (20 days multiplied by $500.00 per day). If the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender one hundred (100) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $40,000.00 (100 days multiplied by $500.00 per day, but capped at 200% of the Lender Conversion Share Value).

  8  

 

 

11.                 True-Up . On the date that is twenty (20) Trading Days (a “ True-Up Date ”) from each date Borrower delivers Free Trading (as defined below) Installment Conversion Shares to Lender, there shall be a true-up where Borrower shall deliver to Lender additional Installment Conversion Shares (“ True-Up Shares ”) if the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is less than the Installment Conversion Price used in the applicable Installment Notice. In such event, Borrower shall deliver to Lender within five (5) Trading Days of the True-Up Date (the “ True-Up Share Delivery Date ”) a number of True-Up Shares equal to the difference between the number of Installment Conversion Shares that would have been delivered to Lender on the True-Up Date based on the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date and the number of Installment Conversion Shares originally delivered to Lender pursuant to the applicable Installment Notice. If the Installment Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is higher than the Installment Conversion Price set forth in the applicable Installment Notice and the number of Installment Conversion Shares delivered exceeds the number of True-Up Shares, then the excess will be applied toward the next Installment Conversion Shares to be issued by Borrower hereunder (unless the Outstanding Balance has been reduced to zero, in which case Lender will return such excess shares to Borrower). For the convenience of Borrower only, Lender may, in its sole discretion, deliver to Borrower a notice (pursuant to a form of notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C ) informing Borrower of the number of True-Up Shares it is obligated to deliver to Lender as of any given True-Up Date, provided that if Lender does not deliver any such notice Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to deliver True-Up Shares pursuant to this Section 11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower fails to deliver any required True-Up Shares on or before any applicable True-Up Share Delivery Date, then in such event the Outstanding Balance of this Note will automatically increase (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations that any such increase will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144) by a sum equal to the number of True-Up Shares deliverable as of the applicable True-Up Date multiplied by the Market Price for the Common Stock as of the applicable True-Up Date.

12.                 Ownership Limitation . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time Lender shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause Lender (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the “ Maximum Percentage ”), then Borrower must not issue to Lender shares of the Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. The shares of Common Stock issuable to Lender that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the “ Ownership Limitation Shares ”. Borrower will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Lender. From time to time, Lender may notify Borrower in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Lender without causing Lender to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to Lender, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the term “4.99%” above shall be replaced with “9.99%” at such time as the Market Capitalization of the Common Stock is less than $10,000,000.00. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term “4.99%” is replaced with “9.99%” pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to “9.99%” shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by Lender as set forth below. By written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof. The foregoing 61-day notice requirement is enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all affiliates and assigns of Lender.

13.                 Payment of Collection Costs . If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note, then Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by Lender for such collection, enforcement or action including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Borrower also agrees to pay for any costs, fees or charges of its transfer agent that are charged to Lender pursuant to any Conversion or issuance of shares pursuant to this Note.

14.                 Opinion of Counsel . In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender shall have such opinion provided by its counsel.

15.                 Governing Law . This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement to determine the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.

16.                 Resolution of Disputes .

16.1.            Arbitration of Disputes . By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the Arbitration Provisions set forth as an Exhibit to the Purchase Agreement.

16.2.            Calculation of Disputes . Notwithstanding the Arbitration Provisions, in the case of a dispute as to any Calculations (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), such dispute will be resolved in the manner set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

17.                 Cancellation . After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance (including without limitation delivery of True-Up Shares pursuant to the payment of the final Installment Amount, if applicable), this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.

18.                 Amendments . The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

19.                 Assignments . Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower.

20.                 Time of the Essence . Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Note and the documents and instruments entered into in connection herewith.

21.                 Notices . Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the subsection of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”

  10  

 

 

22.                 Liquidated Damages . Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Note, Lender’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, Lender and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, default interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not penalties but instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Closing Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144).

If Lender and Borrower are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 16.2.

For the avoidance of doubt, if Borrower has elected or is deemed under Section 8.3 to have elected to pay an Installment Amount in Installment Conversion Shares and fails to deliver such Installment Conversion Shares, such failure shall be considered a Deemed Issuance hereunder even if an Equity Conditions Failure exists at that time or other relevant date of determination.

A6.               Excluded Securities ” means (i) any shares of Common Stock, options, or convertible securities issued or issuable in connection with any Approved Stock Plan; provided that the option term, exercise price or similar provisions of any issuances pursuant to such Approved Stock Plan are not amended, modified or changed on or after the Purchase Price Date; and (ii) any shares of Common Stock issued in connection with a financing transaction other than shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to a convertible debt instrument, warrant or any other variable price security or instrument.

A8.               Fundamental Default ” means that Borrower either fails to pay the entire Outstanding Balance to Lender on or before the Maturity Date or fails to pay the Mandatory Default Amount within three (3) Trading Days of the date Lender delivers any notice of acceleration to Borrower pursuant to Section 4.2 of this Note.

A10.            Fundamental Default Measuring Period ” means a number of months equal to the Outstanding Balance as of the date the Fundamental Default occurred divided by the Installment Amount, with such number being rounded up to the next whole month; provided, however , that if Borrower repays the entire Outstanding Balance prior to the conclusion of the Fundamental Default Measuring Period, the Fundamental Default Measuring Period shall end on the date of repayment. For illustration purposes only, if the Outstanding Balance were equal to $125,000 as of the date a Fundamental Default occurred and if the Installment Amount were $28,500, then the Fundamental Default Measuring Period would equal five (5) months calculated as follows: $125,000/$28,500 equals 4.386, rounded up to five (5).

A11.            Fundamental Default Ratio ” means a ratio that will be calculated on each Trading Day during the Fundamental Default Measuring Period by dividing the Closing Sale Price for the Common Stock on a given Trading Day by the Lender Conversion Price (as adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof) in effect for such Trading Day.

A12.            Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount ” means the greater of (i) (a) the quotient of the Outstanding Balance on the date the Fundamental Default occurred divided by the then-current Conversion Factor, minus (b) the Outstanding Balance on the date the Fundamental Default occurred, or (ii) the Fundamental Default Conversion Value.

A15.            Lender Conversion Share Value ” means the product of the number of Lender Conversion Shares deliverable pursuant to any Lender Conversion multiplied by the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Delivery Date for such Lender Conversion.

A16.            Major Default ” means any Event of Default occurring under Sections 4.1(i), (iii), (iv), (xi), or (xiv) of this Note.

A17.            Market Capitalization of the Common Stock ” shall mean the product equal to (a) the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the immediately preceding fifteen (15) Trading Days, multiplied by (b) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reported on Borrower’s most recently filed Form 10-Q or Form 10-K.

A18.            Minor Default ” means any Event of Default that is not a Major Default or a Fundamental Default.

A19.            Optional Prepayment Liquidated Damages Amount ” means an amount equal to the difference between (a) the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (1) the applicable Optional Prepayment Amount by (2) the Lender Conversion Price as of the date Borrower delivered the applicable Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender, multiplied by (ii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date Borrower delivered the applicable Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender, and (b) the applicable Optional Prepayment Amount paid by Borrower to Lender. For illustration purposes only, if the applicable Optional Prepayment Amount were $50,000.00, the Lender Conversion Price as of the date the Optional Prepayment Amount was paid to Lender was equal to $0.75 per share of Common Stock, and the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock as of such date was equal to $1.00, then the Optional Prepayment Liquidated Damages Amount would equal $16,666.67 computed as follows: (a) $66,666.67 (calculated as (i) (1) $50,000.00 divided by (2) $0.75 multiplied by (ii) $1.00) minus (b) $50,000.00.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, entitlement to and receipt of the foregoing Severance Pay and other benefits is conditioned upon (i) Mr. Moseley complying in all ways with, and remaining in compliance with, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions and covenants of Section 3 below, and (ii) Mr. Moseley not having revoked or rescinded this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 below.

(c) Mr. Moseley acknowledges that he would not be entitled to the Severance Pay in the absence of his entering into and performing under the terms of this Agreement; that the Severance Pay constitute a substantial economic benefit to Mr. Moseley; and that the Severance Pay constitute good and valuable consideration for the various commitments undertaken by Mr. Moseley under this Agreement.

UMED HOLDINGS, INC.

STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Expiring February 1, 2019 

 

4,000,000 Shares Fort Worth, Texas

THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received, RICHARD J. HALDEN (the “Holder”) is entitled at any time from the date hereof, but prior to 5:00 p.m., Fort Worth, Texas time on February 1, 2019, subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, to purchase up to 4,000,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of UMED HOLDINGS, INC., a Texas corporation (the “Company”) at a purchase price of $0.35 per share (the “Exercise Price”) of the Common Stock, after taking into account the restricted nature of the shares of the Common Stock as described below (such number of the shares of the Common Stock and the purchase price being subject to adjustment as provided herein). This Warrant shall be void and of no effect and all rights hereunder shall cease at 5:00 p.m., Fort Worth, Texas time on February 1, 2019, except to the extent theretofore exercised; provided that in the case of the earlier dissolution of the Company, this Warrant shall become void on the date fixed for such dissolution.

1.                    Covenants of the Company . The Company covenants that, while this Warrant is exercisable (a) it will reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of the Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of the Common Stock to provide for the delivery of the shares of the Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, and (b) that all shares of the Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will be fully paid and non-assessable.

2.                    Protection Against Dilution, Etc. In any of the following events, occurring after the date of the issuance of this Warrant, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of shares of the Common Stock to be deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the purchase price per share of the Common Stock to be paid, so as to maintain the proportionate interest of the Holder as of the date hereof (a) recapitalization of the Company through a split-up or reverse split of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a greater or lesser number, as the case may be, or (b) declaration of a dividend on the shares of the Common Stock, payable in shares of the Common Stock or other securities of the Company convertible into shares of the Common Stock, or (c) any of the events described in Paragraph 4 hereof.

3.                    Merger, Etc. In case the Company, or any successor, shall be consolidated or merged with another company, or substantially all of its assets shall be sold to another company in exchange for stock, cash or other property with the view to distributing such stock, cash or other property to its stockholders, each of the shares of the Common Stock purchasable by this Warrant shall be replaced for the purposes hereof by the securities of the Company or cash or property issuable or distributable in respect of one share of the Common Stock of the Company, or its successors, upon such consolidation, merger, or sale, and adequate provision to that effect shall be made at the time thereof. Provided, however, notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, in the event that the terms of any such consolidation, merger or sale call for the distribution of any cash or property to the stockholders of the Company, no such cash or property shall be distributable to the Holder in connection with any unexercised portion of this Warrant, unless the Holder shall have exercised this Warrant pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 6 hereof and all other terms of this Warrant.

4.                    Notice of Certain Events . Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant purchase price hereunder, the Company shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Holder stating the adjusted Warrant purchase price and the adjusted number of shares of the Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. The Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the computation made hereunder. In the case of (a) any consolidation, merger, or sale affecting the Company and calling for the payment of cash or the delivery of property to stockholders of the Company, or (b) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Company shall at any time be proposed, the Company shall give at least 20 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Holder stating the date on which such event is to take place and the date (which shall be at least 20 days after the giving of such notice) as of which the holders of record of shares of the Common Stock shall be entitled to participate in any such event. If the Holder does not elect to exercise any part of this Warrant as a result of any such notice, the Holder shall have no right with respect to any portion of this Warrant which shall remain unexercised to participate in (x) any such cash or other property resulting from any such consolidation, merger or sale, or (y) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Company.

  1  

 

5.                    Stockholders’ Rights . Until the valid exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of the Common Stock covered by this Warrant; but immediately upon the exercise of this Warrant and upon payment as provided herein, the Holder shall be deemed a record holder of the shares of the Common Stock.

6.                    Manner of Exercise . In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant, duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or, in blank, at the office of the Company, accompanied by (a) written Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (the “Exercise Notice”) that the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant or, if less than the entire amount thereof is to be exercised, the portion thereof to be exercised, and (b) payment of the purchase price of the shares of the Common Stock to be purchased on such exercise, in cash or by cashier’s or certified check.

This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the day of surrender of this Warrant for exercise in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and at such time the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of the shares of the Common Stock at such time. As promptly as practicable on or after the exercise date, but in no event later than three business days, the Company shall issue and shall deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise.

In case this Warrant is exercised in part only, upon such exercise the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Warrant to purchase, in the aggregate, in the number of shares of the Common Stock covered by the unexercised portion of this Warrant.

7.                    Limitation on Exercise . The Holder (including any successor, transferee or assignee) shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Warrant to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of the Common Stock of the Company outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of the Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, non-exercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (ii) exercise of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other notes or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For purposes of this paragraph, in determining the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, during regular business hours of the Company and upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two business days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of the Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that (A) any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company, (B) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of warrants, and (C) and in no case shall the Holder or its Affiliates acquire in excess of 9.999% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock or the voting power of the Company.

8.                    Representations and Covenants of the Holder . The Holder represents and covenants that this Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any other applicable securities law. This Warrant has been purchased for investment only and not with a view to distribution or resale, and may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred unless this Warrant or the shares of the Common Stock represented hereby are registered under the Securities Act, and any other applicable securities law, or the Company has received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it that registration is not required.
