NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for Marizyme Inc. may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are characterized by future or conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Such statements are only predictions and our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in the audited financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2018 contained in the Company’s form for registration of securities on Form 10-K (“Form 10K”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 6, 2019. These factors include the uncertainties associated with product development, the risk that products that appeared promising in early clinical trials do not demonstrate safety and efficacy in larger-scale clinical trials, the risk that we will not obtain approval to market our products, the risks associated with dependence upon key personnel and the need for additional financing. We do not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements as circumstances change and thus you should not unduly rely on these statements.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2019

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 COMPANY AND BACKGROUND  

 

Overview

 

Marizyme, Inc., a Nevada corporation formerly known as GBS Enterprises Incorporated (the “Company,” “Marizyme”, “GBS,” “GBSX,” “MRZM,”, “we,” “us,” “our” or similar expressions), conducted its primary business through its majority owned subsidiary, GBS Software AG (“GROUP”), a German-based public-company.

 

By December 31, 2016, we sold the controlling interest in GROUP and other subsidiaries, keeping only a minority interest in GROUP. On March 21, 2018, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary named Marizyme, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and merged with it, effectively changing the Company’s name to Marizyme, Inc. On June 1, 2018, we exchanged the shares of GROUP and all the intercompany assets and liabilities for 100% of the shares of X-Assets Enterprises, Inc, a Nevada Corporation. As part of a type-D business restructuring on September 5, 2018, we then distributed the X-Assets shares to our own shareholders on a 1 for 1 basis.

 

Marizyme refocused on the life sciences and seeks technologies to acquire.

 

On September 12, 2018 we consummated an asset acquisition with ACB Holding AB, Reg. No. 559119-5762, a Swedish corporation to acquire all right, title and interest in their Krillase technology in exchange for 16.98 Million shares of Common Stock. Krillase is a naturally occurring enzyme that acts to break protein bonds and has applications in dental care, wound healing and thrombosis.

 

The Company’s common stock was historically quoted on the OTC Markets’ OTCQB under the ticker symbol “MRZM.” However, because the Company failed to file its 2014 Annual Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company’s common stock since that time has been quoted on the OTC Pink sheets. The Company Filed a Form 10 with the SEC on September 12, 2018 and is now current with its SEC periodic filings.

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next twelve months. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classifications of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At June 30, 2019, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and had accumulated losses of $30,128,144 since its inception, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management is in the process of executing a strategy based upon a new strategic direction in the life sciences space. We have several technologies in the commercialization phase and in development. We are seeking acquisitions of biotechnology assets in support of this direction. There can be no assurances that management will be successful in executing this strategy.

 

Note 2 INTERIM REPORTING  

 

While the information presented in the accompanying interim three-month financial statements is unaudited, it includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the Company’s December 31, 2018 annual financial statements. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2018 annual financial statements. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Note 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

 

There have been no changes in the accounting policies that effect these interim financial statements from the accounting policies disclosed in the notes to the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Note 4 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS  

 

The Company adopts new pronouncements relating to generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the Company as they are issued, which may be in advance of their effective date. Management does not believe that any pronouncement not yet effective but recently issued would, if adopted, have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

Note 5 INTANGIBLE ASSETS  

 

On September 12, 2018 we consummated an asset acquisition with ACB Holding AB, Reg. No. 559119-5762, a Swedish corporation to acquire all right, title and interest in their Krillase technology in exchange for 16.98 Million shares of Common Stock. Krillase is a naturally occurring enzyme that acts to break protein bonds and has applications in dental care, wound healing and thrombosis. The transaction was recorded at the fair value of the shares. No amortization has been recorded as the patents are not yet in a position to produce cash flows.

 

Note 6 CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE  

 

On July 7, 2018 the Company issued a convertible note for $75,000. The note accrued interest at 12% interest, calculated monthly, due January 3, 2019 and convertible into common stock at the discretion of the noteholder at $0.50 per share.

 

On December 30, 2018, the noteholder converted the principal and interest owing of $79,614 into 159,228 shares of common stock.

 

Note 7 CAPITAL STOCK  

 

The Company has authorized capital of 75,000,000 shares of common stock and 25,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, each with a par value of $0.001. On July 27, 2018 we completed a 1:29 reverse split of our common stock resulting in a total of 1,101,074 shares of Common stock outstanding. As of June 30, 2019, there were 19,858,939 shares of common stock outstanding.

 

On May 14 ,2018, 1,000 shares of preferred stock were issued to the CEO for services valued at $1. The preferred stock had voting rights of 80% at shareholder meetings.

 

On July 27, 2018, the Company completed a reverse stock split of 1 new share for 29 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. These financial statements give retroactive effect to this transaction.

 

On September 12, 2018, 16,980,000 common shares were issued to acquire patents and all rights, title and interest in Krillase technology and 1,500,000 shares were issued to the CEO in exchange for the 1,000 shares of preferred stock.

 

On December 30, 2018, 159,228 shares of common stock was issued on conversion of convertible debt of $79,614.

 

On June 12, 2019, the Company sold $125,000 of its common stock to three investors in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act. In this private placement, the Company sold 118,637 shares priced at $1.10 per share and included a three-year warrant to purchase one additional share for each share purchased in the private placement at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. If the price of the Company’s common stock reaches $4.00 for 20 consecutive days, the company has the right to buy back the warrant for $0.01 per share if the investor elects not to exercise the warrant to acquire the additional shares.

 

Options and warrants.

 

165,000 Options to purchase Common Stock at a strike price of $1.50 were outstanding as of June 30, 2019.

ITEM 2. - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed financial statements and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “plan,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

 

The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2019. Accordingly, to the extent that this Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of us, please be advised that our actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated by us in forward-looking statements, and you should not unduly rely on such statements.

 

Overview

 

Marizyme, Inc., a Nevada corporation formerly known as GBS Enterprises Incorporated, conducted its primary business through its minority owned subsidiary, GBS Software AG, or GROUP, a German-based public-company whose stock trades on the Frankfurt Exchange. GROUP’s software and consulting business was focused on serving IBM’s Lotus Notes and Domino market. On March 21, 2018, GBS formed a wholly owned subsidiary named Marizyme, Inc., a Nevada Corporation and merged it with GBS Enterprises and renamed the Company Marizyme.

 

Marizyme currently is focused on bringing early stage biotechnology assets to market and on September 12, 2018, consummated an asset purchase agreement with ACB Holding AB, Reg. No. 559119-5762, a Swedish corporation.

 

The Company’s Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Markets’ Pink tier under the symbol “MRZM.” Upon the filing of this Annual Report, or shortly thereafter, we intend to solicit a market maker to apply to have our Common Stock quoted on the OTC Markets’ OTCQB tier, although no assurances can be given that we will be successful in soliciting a market maker or if we are, that its application with FINRA, or our application with the OTCQB, will be approved. We may also examine our options with respect to the listing of our Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock market or the NYSE.

 

Going forward, the Company is focusing on the life sciences business and currently has acquired its first biotechnology assets. Marizyme is also seeking other assets to acquire.

 

Other than planning activities, Marizyme has not yet begun any active business activities with respect to the development, testing or marketing of any of the four product candidates that we purchased from ACB Holding AB.

 

Recent Events

 

The Company sold $125,000 of its common stock to three investors in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act. In this private placement, the Company sold 118,637 shares priced at $1.10 per share and included a three-year warrant to purchase one additional share for each share purchased in the private placement at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. If the price of the Company’s common stock reaches $4.00 for 20 consecutive days, the company has the right to buy back the warrant for $0.01 per share if the investor elects not to exercise the warrant to acquire the additional shares.

FINANCIAL OPERATIONS OVERVIEW

 

As of June 30, 2019, our accumulated deficit is approximately $30.23 million. We expect to incur additional losses to perform further research and development activities and do not currently have any commercial biopharmaceutical products. We do not expect to have such for several years, if at all.

 

Our product development efforts are thus in their early stages and we cannot make estimates of the costs or the time they will take to complete. The risk of completion of any program is high because of the many uncertainties involved in bringing new drugs to market including the long duration of clinical testing, the specific performance of proposed products under stringent clinical trial protocols, the extended regulatory approval and review cycles, our ability to raise additional capital, the nature and timing of research and development expenses and competing technologies being developed by organizations with significantly greater resources.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At June 30, 2019, we had $4,382 in cash, compared to $104 at December 31, 2018. At June 30, 2019, our accumulated stockholders’ deficit was $30,228,144 compared to $29,922,542 at December 31, 2018. There is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company's cash flow depended on the timely and successful market entry of its strategic offerings. Future cash flows from software products and services are expected to be very small as the company changed its strategic focus to life sciences and biotechnology.

 

Especially for strategic offerings for paradigm shifting technologies, the management's budget plan is based on a series of assumptions regarding regulatory approval, market acceptance, readiness and pricing. While management's assumptions are based on market research, assumptions bear the risk of being incorrect and may result in a delay in projects, delays in regulatory approvals and consequently a delay or a reduction in the related strategic offerings. In case these delays have an impact on the Company's liquidity and therefore its ability to support its operations with the necessary cash flow, the Company depends on its ability to generate cash flow from other resources, such as debt financing from related or independent resources or as equity financing from existing stockholders or through the stock market.

 

During the entire fiscal year 2018 and for the first half of 2019 the Company sought other strategic assets in the biotechnology space. The Company will look to utilize internal and external sources for financing future projects. These sources may provide the necessary funds to support the working capital needs of the Company. There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds from these or any other sources or that such funds will be sufficient to permit the Company to implement its intended business strategy. In the event, the Company is not able to generate additional funds, management will postpone any planned or proposed acquisitions until the available financing for such projects will be sufficient. Management believes, in accordance with the above-mentioned statement, the Company will need to raise money to support its standard operations for the current fiscal period.

 

We sold $125,000 of our common stock to three investors in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act. In this private placement, we sold 118,637 shares priced at $1.10 per share and we included a three-year warrant to purchase one additional share for each share purchased in the private placement at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. If the price of our common stock reaches $4.00 for 20 consecutive days, we have the right to buy back the warrant for $0.01 per share if the investor elects not to exercise the warrant to acquire the additional shares.

Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements

 

We believe our cash balance as reported in our financial statements is not sufficient to fund our growth plan for any period of time. In order to fully implement our plan of operations for the next 12-month period, we will need to raise a significant amount of capital through one or more future offerings. The discussion below is based on the assumption that we will be able to raise significant capital in the third and fourth quarters of 2019. We will need to raise $1.5 million to fund operations for the next 12 months, including up to $100,000 for governance and administrative purposes (assuming we hire a new Chief Executive Officer). After the next 12-month period, we most likely will need to raise additional financing. We do not currently have any arrangements for any such financing and there can be no assurances that we will be able to raise the required capital on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

We have generated minimal revenues to date and, although we expect to raise significant capital in the future, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in these endeavors. We believe that the actions presently being taken to further implement our business plan and generate revenues will provide the opportunity for us to develop into a successful business operation.

 

We will be required to raise additional capital within the next year to continue the development and commercialization of current product candidates and to continue to fund operations at the current cash expenditure levels. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Recently worldwide economic conditions and the international equity and credit markets have significantly deteriorated and may remain difficult for the foreseeable future. These developments will make it more difficult to obtain additional equity or credit financing, when needed. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact our ability to conduct delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more product candidates; (ii) seek collaborators for product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable and on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; or (iii) relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize its self on unfavorable terms.

ITEM 4. - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Our Executive Chairman and acting principal executive and financial officer, James Sapirstein, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on that evaluation, as of June 30, 2019, our acting principal executive and financial officer identified the following material weaknesses:

 

We do not have sufficient and skilled accounting personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge and experience in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on the use of external legal and accounting professionals. 

 

Our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and as soon as we have available funds, we will implement the following remedial procedures:

 

We will hire personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel. As necessary, we will continue to engage consultants or outside accounting firms in order to ensure proper accounting for our financial statements. 

 

We intend to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses discussed above as soon as practicable but we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. Designing and implementing an effective disclosure controls and procedures is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to devote significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that adequately satisfies our reporting obligations. The remedial measures that we have taken and intend to take may not fully address the material weaknesses that we have identified, and material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures may be identified in the future. Should we discover such conditions, we intend to remediate them as soon as practicable. We are committed to taking appropriate steps for remediation, as needed.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, our management, including our acting principal executive and financial officer, James Sapirstein, conducted an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, our acting principal executive and financial officer concluded there were no such changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (the “ Agreement ”) is made as of May 11, 2019, by and among MARIZYME, INC. , a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), and the persons and entities named on the Schedule of Subscribers attached hereto as Exhibit A (individually, a “ Subscriber ” and collectively, the “ Subscribers ”).

 

RECITALS

To provide the Company with additional resources to conduct its business and for the other uses of proceeds specified in this Agreement, the Company is offering and selling to the Subscribers (the “ Offering ”) and the Subscribers are willing to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 1,370,000 shares (each a “ Share ” and, collectively, the “ Shares ”) of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“ Common Stock ”), for an aggregate purchase price of up to $1,500,000, subject to the conditions specified herein. The Shares are being sold at a purchase price per Share of $1.10 (the “ Per Share Price ”). Each Share will be accompanied by a three-year warrant (each a “ Warrant ” and, collectively, the “ Warrants ” and together with the Shares, the “ Securities ”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share.

 

The Shares and Warrants being subscribed for pursuant to this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”). The Offering is being made exclusively to a select few “accredited investors,” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, known to the Company.

 

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth below, the Company and each Subscriber, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1. SUBSCRIPTION. Each undersigned Subscriber hereby subscribes to purchase the number of Shares equal to the Investment Amount set forth on its respective signature page attached hereto divided by the Per Share Price, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and based on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein. The Company may accept subscriptions and deposit funds in its corporate account in one or several closings (each a “ Closing ”) that will occur on or before April 30, 2019. No minimum amount must be raised for the Company to have a Closing and Subscriber funds will be deposited directly into the Company’s operating bank account as no escrow account is being used for this Offering. The minimum investment per Subscriber in this Offering is $25,000 although the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept a lower minimum amount. 

 

Each Subscriber who purchases Shares will receive a Warrant to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Shares that have been subscribed for by such Subscriber. The Warrant shall have an exercise price of $3.00 per share, shall expire on the third anniversary of the date of its issuance and may be repurchased by the Company if and when the closing price of the Common Stock on any registered national stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market equals or exceeds $4.00 per share for twenty (20) consecutive trading days. A copy of the form of Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit B .

 

2. Closing s.  

 

a. Closings. The purchase and sale of the Shares and Warrants shall take place at one or more closings (each, a “ Closing ”) which shall take place remotely via exchange of documents and signatures at such place and time as may be agreed to among the Company and the Subscribers. At a Closing, the Company shall deliver to each of the Subscribers purchasing Shares and Warrants for cash at such closing, a certificate representing such number of Shares and a Warrant as is set forth opposite such Subscriber’s name on Exhibit A hereto against receipt of a check subject to collection or a wire transfer in immediately available funds of the purchase price, to an account designated by the Company. 

 

b Conditions .

The obligation of the Company to sell and issue Shares and Warrants to be delivered at a Closing is, unless waived by the Company, subject to the condition that the relevant Investor’s representations and warranties contained in Section 4 are true, complete and correct on and as of the date of Closing.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Subscription Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with, or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, decree, order or writ or an event that results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties. The sale of the Shares and Warrants is not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.

Each of the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC under all of the foregoing.

The Subscriber understands and acknowledges that the Shares and Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants, have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. The Subscriber further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with respect to any of the Shares or Warrants.

5. FURTHER AGREEMENTS  

 

a. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement . Each Subscriber agrees that such Subscriber shall not sell, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Subscriber during the 180-day period following the effective date of the Company’s first firm commitment underwritten public offering of its Common Stock registered under the Securities Act (or such longer period as the underwriters or the Company shall request in order to facilitate compliance with FINRA Rule 2711 or NYSE Member Rule 472 or any successor or similar rule or regulation), provided that all officers and directors of the Company are bound by and have entered into similar agreements. Each Subscriber agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriters that are consistent with the Subscriber’s obligations under Section 5(a) or that are necessary to give further effect to this Section 5(a). In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, each Subscriber shall provide, within 10 days of such request, such information as may be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Act.

COMMON SHARE PURCHASE WARRANT

 

Warrant No.__001_____

Original Issue Date: May 12, 2019

Initial Holder: Inversiones Da Vinca LTD, El Retiro 5101, Vitacura,, Santiago Chile, 7630227

No. of Common Shares Subject to Warrant:

22,727

Initial Exercise Price Per Share: $3.00 (subject to the adjustment pursuant to Section 9)

Expiration Time: 5:00 p.m., New York time, on May 11, 2022

 

Marizyme, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), hereby certifies that, for value received, the Initial Holder shown above, or its permitted registered assigns (the “ Holder ”), is entitled to purchase from the Company up to the number of Common Shares (the “ Common Shares ”), shown above (each such share, a “ Warrant Share ” and all such shares, the “ Warrant Shares ”) at the exercise price shown above (as may be adjusted from time to time as provided herein, the “ Exercise Price ”), at any time and from time to time on or after the original issue date indicated above (the “ Original Issue Date ”) and through and including the expiration time shown above (the “ Expiration Time ”), and subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

This Warrant is being issued pursuant to a Subscription Agreement, dated May 12, 2019 (the “ Agreement ”), by and between the Company and the Initial Holder.

 

1. Definitions . In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreement.

 

2. List of Warrant Holders . The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “ Warrant Register ”), in the name of the record Holder (which shall include the Initial Holder or, as the case may be, any registered assignee to which this Warrant is permissibly assigned hereunder from time to time). The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

3. List of Transfers; Restrictions on Transfer . The Company shall register any transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at its address specified herein. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new Warrant to purchase Common Shares, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new Warrant, a “ New Warrant ”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the New Warrant that the Holder has in respect of this Warrant.

 

4. Exercise and Duration of Warrant .

 

(a) All or any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in any manner permitted by this Section 4 at any time and from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date and through and including the Expiration Time. At the Expiration Time, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value and this Warrant shall be terminated and shall no longer be outstanding.

 

(b) The Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company: (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto (the “ Exercise Notice ”), completed and duly signed, and (ii) if such Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised. The Holder shall be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. The date such items are delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an “ Exercise Date .” Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.



 

 

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant for all or any portion of the Warrant Shares for which no effective registration statement is available and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Common Shares determined according to the following formula (a “ Cashless Exercise ”):

 

Net Number =

(A x B) – (A x C)

 

B

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. 

 

B= the average of the closing prices of the Common Shares on the three (3) Trading Days immediately preceding the Exercise Date. 

 

C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. 

 

For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act, as in effect on the date hereof, assuming the Holder is not an affiliate of the Company, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the closing date of the Offering pursuant to which the Company was obligated to issue this Warrant.

 

(d) The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

5. Company Repurchase Rights . The Company may elect, at its option, to repurchase the Warrant, with respect to all or a portion of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, at a price of $3.00 per Warrant Share, if and when the closing price of the Common Shares on any registered national stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market equals or exceeds $4.00 per share for twenty (20) consecutive trading days. The Company shall provide written notice of its election to repurchase the all or a portion of the Warrant, which notice shall set forth the portion of the Warrant to be repurchased, the aggregate consideration to be paid for such repurchase and the time and place for the closing of the repurchase.

 

6. Delivery of Warrant Shares .  

 

(a) Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three (3) Trading Days after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise containing the legend referred to in Section 4.(g) of the Agreement or a substantially similar legend. Certificates representing Warrant Shares shall be eligible for removal of the restrictive legend: (i) following any sale of such Warrant Shares pursuant to the plan of distribution in an effective registration statement (in compliance with any prospectus delivery requirements) or (ii) following a sale or transfer of such Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferee is not an Affiliate of the Company), or (iii) while such Warrant Shares are eligible for sale by the Holder or its transferred without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. “ Trading Day ” shall mean a date on which the Company’s Common Shares trade on its principal trading market. The Holder, or any Person permissibly so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date. The Company shall, upon the written request of the Holder, use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver, or cause to be delivered, Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available; provided, that, the Company may, but will not be required to, change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation. If as of the time of exercise the Warrant Shares constitute restricted or control securities, the Holder, by exercising, agrees not to resell them except in compliance with all applicable securities laws.



 

 

(b) To the extent permitted by law, the Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(c) If the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates (either physical or electronic) representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to the terms hereof by applicable delivery date, then, the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

7. Charges, Taxes and Expenses . Issuance and delivery of certificates for Common Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or the Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

 

8. Replacement of Warrant . If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

 

9. Reservation of Warrant Shares . The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Shares, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares that are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 10). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

10. Certain Adjustments to Exercise Price . The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 10.

 

(a) Adjustments for Share Splits and Combinations and Share Distributions . If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, effect a share split or combination of the outstanding Common Shares or pay a share distribution in Common Shares, then the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustments under this Section 9(a) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the share split or combination becomes effective or the date of payment of the share distribution, as applicable.

 

(b) Merger Sale, Reclassification, etc. In case of any: (i) consolidation or merger (including a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), (ii) sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or distribution of property to shareholders (other than distributions payable out of earnings or retained earnings), or reclassification, change or conversion of the outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time thereafter shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Common Shares or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition, reclassification, change, conversion or reorganization, the stock or other securities or property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto.

 

11. No Fractional Shares . No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one Warrant Share as reported by the applicable Trading Market on the Exercise Date.

 

12. Notices . Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be delivered in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6(e) of the Agreement.



 

 

13. Warrant Agent . The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s last address as shown on the Warrant Register.

 

14. No Net Cash Settlement . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event will the Holder hereof be entitled to receive a net-cash settlement as liquidated damages in lieu of physical settlement in Common Shares, regardless of whether the Common Shares underlying this Warrant are registered pursuant to an effective registration statement; provided, however, that the foregoing will not preclude the Holder from seeking other remedies at law or equity for breaches by the Company of its registration obligations to the Holder.

 

15. Miscellaneous .

 

(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder, or their successors and assigns.

 

(b) All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, New York for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of this Warrant, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HERETO (INCLUDING ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

(c) The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

 

(d) In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

 

(e) Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof shall not, by reason of by being a Holder, be entitled to any rights of a shareholder with respect to the Warrant Shares.

 

(f) No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
