ITEM 2.01 | COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS |
On June 3, 2019 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange dated as of such date (the “ Exchange Agreement ”) with Trinity Services LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (“ Trinity ”) and the sole member of Trinity (the “ Trinity Member ”). We expect to complete the closing of the acquisition of Trinity on or before June 21, 2019 (“ Closing Date ”). On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we will acquire one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Trinity (“ Trinity Membership Interests ”) from the Trinity Member pursuant to which Trinity will become our wholly owned subsidiary (“ Acquisition ”). In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, and in connection with the completion of the Acquisition, on the Closing Date we will: (i) issue 2,000 shares of our 3% Series A Secured Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”), stated value $1,000 per share, (ii) pay $500,000 in cash to the Trinity Member, and (iii) assume approximately $850,000 in notes related to equipment owned by Trinity (“ Purchase Price ”).
The Purchase Price will be increased, or decreased, as the case may be, on a dollar for dollar basis by an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the Net Working Capital reflected on the Trinity balance sheet dated as of the Closing Date (“ Closing Balance Sheet ”) is less than the Net Working Capital, defined below, calculation of Four Hundred Forty One Thousand Twenty Two dollars ($441,022 plus unknown cash balance) as of April 18, 2019 (“ Purchase Price Adjustment ”). For purposes hereof “Net Working Capital” shall be defined as: cash plus accounts receivable, less accounts payable and accrued expenses. Any such adjustment shall be determined on the date that is sixty (60) days after the Closing Date (“ Closing Adjustment Date ”). If the Purchase Price Adjustment results in an increase in the Net Working Capital, then the Company shall pay the Purchase Price Adjustment amount, in cash, to the Trinity Member within five business days of the Closing Adjustment Date (“ Purchase Price Adjustment Payment Date ”). If the Purchase Price Adjustment results in a decrease in the Net Working Capital then the Trinity Member shall pay the Purchase Price Adjustment, in cash, to the Company on or prior to the Purchase Price Adjustment Payment Date. In the event that the Trinity Member is required to make a Purchase Price Adjustment payment to the Company, and such payment is not made on or before the Purchase Price Adjustment Payment Date, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, cancel and redeem such number of shares of Preferred Stock held by the Trinity Member, or its assigns, with a stated value equal to the Purchase Price Adjustment amount.
The Preferred Stock is convertible at $0.50 per share at any time after the issuance thereof and is secured by all of the unencumbered assets of Trinity. All outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock upon the earlier to occur of: (i) twelve months after the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock; or (ii) six months after the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock, provided that (a) all shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock may be sold under Rule 144 or pursuant to an effective registration statement without a restriction on resale, and (b) the average closing price of the Company’s common stock has been at least of $0.60 per share during the twenty (20) trading days prior to the date of conversion.
Additionally, in connection with the execution of the Exchange Agreement, Trinity entered into a $1,000,000 loan and security agreement with Newton Dorsett as a line of credit against the Trinity accounts receivable. Pursuant to the terms of the loan and security agreement, Newton Dorsett will lend Trinity up to the lesser of: (i) $1,000,000, or (ii) 90% of eligible accounts receivable of Trinity. Trinity shall pay interest on a monthly basis to Newton Dorsett at a rate of 9% per annum.
All of the shares of Preferred Stock, and the shares of the Company’s Common Stock underlying the Preferred Stock, issued in connection with the Acquisition are restricted securities, as defined in paragraph (a) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”). Such shares were issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
The summary of the Exchange Agreement and Loan and Security Agreement set forth above do not purport to be a complete statement of the terms of such documents. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the document, copies of which are being filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 2.1, 10.6 and 10.7 , and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 3.02 | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES |
The shares of our Preferred Stock issued in connection with the Purchase Agreement were issued in a private transaction in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Our reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act was based upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the securities was an isolated private transaction by us which did not involve a public offering; (b) there was only a single offeree; (c) there were no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the securities by us; and (d) the negotiations for the sale of the stock took place directly between the offeree and us.

WHEREAS , the Board of Directors is authorized within the limitations and restrictions stated in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended to date, to provide by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation, in such series and with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions as the Corporation’s Board of Directors shall fix by resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance thereof duly adopted by the Board of Directors; and
WHEREAS , it is the desire of the Board of Directors, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to authorize and fix the terms of a series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting such series;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
Section 1. Designation and Authorized Shares . The Corporation shall be authorized to issue two thousand (2,000) shares of 3% Series A Secured Convertible Preferred Stock (the “ Series A Preferred Stock ”).
Section 2. Stated Value . Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have a stated value of $1,000 per share (the “ Stated Value ”).
Section 3. Liquidation .
(a) Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, for each share thereof, out of assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, a preferential amount in cash equal to (and not more than) the Stated Value (the “ Liquidation Amount ”) plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. All preferential amounts to be paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be paid before the payment or setting apart for payment of any amount for, or the distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of (i) any other class or series of capital stock and (ii) the Corporation's Common Stock. If upon any such distribution the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or the holders of any class or series of capital stock ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock as to distributions in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation) the full amounts to which they shall be entitled, such holders shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in accordance with the sums which would be payable on such distribution if all sums payable thereon were paid in full.
(b) Any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, shall be made in cash to the extent possible. Whenever any such distribution shall be paid in property other than cash, the value of such distribution shall be the Fair Market Value of such property.

The Series A Preferred Stock shall be secured by a lien and security interest (“Lien”) on all of the unencumbered assets of Trinity Services LLC (“Trinity”), which will become a subsidiary of the Company upon the closing of the acquisition of Trinity by the Company, as set forth in the Security Agreement.
Section 5. Dividends .
(a) The Series A Preferred Stock shall pay a three percent (3%) annual dividend on the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, all of which shall be accrued until the Series A Preferred Stock has been converted.
(b) In the event that the Corporation shall at any time declare and pay a dividend or distribution of assets on any pari passu or junior shares of capital stock of the Corporation (other than a dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of Common Stock), it shall, at the same time, declare and pay to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock a dividend equal to the dividend that would have been payable to such holder as if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder had been converted pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof into Common Stock on the date of determination of Holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend.
(c) The Corporation may not declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution of assets on, or redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire, shares of capital stock of the Corporation ranking pari passu or junior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, unless all declared and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been or are contemporaneously paid.
Section 6. Conversion .

In the event that a Holder owns less than 100 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, then all such shares shall be converted upon any such conversion.
(b) Automatic Conversion . All outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the earlier to occur of: (i) twelve months after the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock; or (ii) six months after the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, provided that (a) all shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued upon conversion may be sold under Rule 144 or pursuant to an effective registration statement without a restriction on resale, and (b) the average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock has been at least of $0.60 per share during the twenty (20) trading days prior to the date of conversion (“ Automatic Conversion ”).

(B) void its Conversion Notice and retain or have returned, as the case may be, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock that was to be converted pursuant to the Conversion Notice (provided that the Holder’s voiding its Conversion Notice shall not affect the Corporation’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice);

In any case in which the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote pursuant to this Certificate of Designation or pursuant to the DGCL or other applicable law, each Holder entitled to vote with respect to such matter shall be entitled to vote, with respect to each share of such Series A Preferred Stock, the number of votes that equals the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred Stock is then convertible.
Section 10. Certain Adjustments.
(a) So long as any Series A Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, from and after the Effective Date, the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) Adjustments for Stock Splits and Combinations . If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date, effect a forward stock split of the outstanding Common Stock, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the stock split shall be proportionately decreased. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date, combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock in the form of a reverse stock split or other combination that causes the outstanding shares of Common Stock to decrease, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustments under this Section 10(a)(i) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination occurs.
(ii) Adjustments for Certain Dividends and Distributions . If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying, the applicable Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:
(1) | the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and |
(2) | the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution. |
(iii) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions . If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in other than shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the applicable Conversion Price shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversions thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereon, the number of securities of the Corporation which they would have received had the Series A Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period), giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 10(a)(iii) with respect to the rights of the Holder; provided , however , that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 10(a)(iii) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.
(iv) Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution . If the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date shall be changed to the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends provided for in Sections 10(a)(i) , 10(a)(ii) and 10(a)(iii), or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in Section 10(a)(v)), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series A Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
(v) Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets . If at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date there shall be a capital reorganization of the Corporation (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for in Section 10(a)(i), 10(a)(ii) and 10(a)(iii), or a reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for in Section 10(a)(iv)), or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person where the holders of outstanding voting securities prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties or assets to any other Person (an “ Organic Change ”), then as a part of such Organic Change, (A) if the surviving entity in any such Organic Change is a public company that is registered pursuant to the Exchange Act, and its common stock is listed or quoted on a national exchange or the OTC Market, an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Corporation or any successor corporation resulting from Organic Change, and (B) if the surviving entity in any such Organic Change is not a public company that is registered pursuant to the Exchange Act, or its common stock is not listed or quoted on a national exchange or the OTC Market, the Holder shall have the right to receive the Redemption Price for its Series A Preferred Stock. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 10(a)(v) with respect to the rights of the Holder after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this Section 10(a)(v) (including any adjustment in the applicable Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable.
(b) Record Date . In case the Corporation shall take record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, then the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be such record date.
(c) No Impairment . The Corporation shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or other constitutional documents, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith, assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 10 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the Holder against impairment. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock as provided herein, the Corporation cannot refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, violation of an agreement to which such Holder is a party or for any reason whatsoever, unless, an injunction from a court, or notice, restraining and or adjoining conversion of all or of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have issued and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the aggregate Stated Value of the Series A Preferred Stock that the Holder has elected to convert, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder (as liquidated damages) in the event it obtains judgment.
(d) Certificates as to Adjustments . Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 10, the Corporation at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon written request of the Holder, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver a certificate unless such certificate would reflect an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of such adjusted amount.
(e) Issue Taxes . The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant thereto; provided , however , that the Corporation shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Holder in connection with any such conversion.
(f) Fractional Shares . No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. All fractional shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share.
(g) Reservation of Common Stock . The Corporation shall at all times when the Series A Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of the all authorized Series A Preferred Stock; provided that the number of shares of Common Stock so reserved shall at no time be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the authorized Series A Preferred Stock are at any time convertible. The Corporation shall, from time to time in accordance with Delaware law, increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if at any time the unissued number of authorized shares shall not be sufficient to satisfy the Corporation’s obligations under this Section 10(g).
(h) Regulatory Compliance . If any shares of Common Stock to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or any dividends accrued thereon require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Corporation shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith and as expeditiously as possible, endeavor to secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.

Exhibit 10.6
LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”)
This Agreement dated June 3, 2019, is an agreement between NEWTON DORSETT (“DORSETT”), and TRINITY SERVICES, LLC , a Louisiana limited liability company (“Borrower”). In this Agreement, DORSETT and Borrower are collectively the “Parties”. The Parties have the addresses shown on the schedule (“Schedule”) which is attached to this Agreement. These are the addresses of the Parties for all purposes and may be changed by one party giving notice to the other party in writing of the new address.
1. PURPOSE . The purpose of this Agreement, including the Schedule, is to set forth the terms and conditions of the loans from DORSETT to Borrower (“Loans”) and the obligations of Borrower. The Schedule is part of this Agreement. Any and all promissory notes, including for term loans and/or capital expenditures (individually and collectively “Note”) to be signed by Borrower, and any other documents now or hereafter signed by any of the Parties in connection with this Agreement, the Loans or any document issued by DORSETT, including subordination or intercreditor agreements, are also all part of this Agreement. All of the documents together are referred to collectively as the “Loan Documents”.
2. LOANS; LOAN ADVANCES .
A. Any disbursement of money or advance of credit by DORSETT, including but not limited to amounts advanced for the payment of interest, fees, expenses and amounts necessary to protect, maintain and preserve DORSETT’s Collateral under the Loan Documents (“Protective Disbursements”), is referred to collectively as an “Advance”. Whether DORSETT makes an Advance is in DORSETT’s sole discretion. If an Advance is made, it will be made in accordance with the advance formula set forth in the Schedule (“Advance Formula”); but not at any time to exceed the maximum amount set forth in the Schedule (“Maximum Amount”). DORSETT may choose to make Protective Disbursements in excess of the Maximum Amount or Advance Formula in its sole discretion. Each time DORSETT makes an Advance, including a Protective Disbursement, the Advance will be debited against an account in Borrower’s name on DORSETT’s books (“Loan Account”), and each payment will be credited against the Loan Account in the manner described in this Agreement.
B. The total amount Borrower owes to DORSETT will be the aggregate of the Advances made by DORSETT, the expenses and fees set forth in the Schedule, and interest at the rate set forth in the Note on all amounts and all other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Obligations” and/or “Indebtedness”).
C. Borrower must repay all Advances with respect to the Loans with interest, which is due monthly as specified in the Note, along with all other fees and expenses of DORSETT set forth herein or in the Schedule. DORSETT may in its sole discretion collect any Obligations due DORSETT by (i) directly applying any funds in the Lockbox Account, as defined in paragraph 5 below, to the Obligations (ii) directly applying funds from any Reserve Account, as defined in paragraph 3 below, to the Obligations, (iii) collecting the Obligations directly from Borrower; or (iv) otherwise collecting the Obligations. Borrower understands that all the Obligations are repayable at any time in full or in part upon demand by DORSETT. DORSETT may make demand for partial payments and such demand will not preclude DORSETT from demanding payment in full at any time.
D. Borrower must comply with its representations, promises, covenants and reporting requirements set forth in this Agreement, in the Schedule and in the other Loan Documents. Borrower’s failure to do any of the foregoing is a default (“Default”). The demand nature of the Obligations is not modified by reference to a Default in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and any reference to a Default is for the purpose of permitting DORSETT to exercise its remedies for Default, including charging interest at the Extra Rate as defined and provided in the Note.
E. The aggregate amount of all Advances, and interest at the rate set forth in the Note on all amounts advanced (“Loan Amount”), may not, at any time, exceed the Maximum Amount or the Advance Formula, and Borrower understands that if at any time it should owe more to DORSETT than the lesser of the Maximum Amount or the Advance Formula it must repay that amount immediately, whether or not demand to repay the whole of the Obligations has been made. Protective Disbursements must be immediately repaid whether or not the lesser of the Maximum Amount or the Advance Formula has been exceeded.
3. RESERVES . If DORSETT believes in its sole discretion that the prospect for repayment of the Obligations is impaired or that its Collateral margin is insufficient, DORSETT may establish cash reserves and credit balances (collectively “Reserves”) to protect its interests and the repayment of the Obligations. Reserves may be established by reducing the Advance Formula to achieve the target reserve level, withholding monies due Borrower from any payments DORSETT receives, from a cash payment from Borrower, or any other method DORSETT chooses. DORSETT shall hold these Reserves in a “Reserve Account”. Any money in a Reserve Account, whether or not it is a cash reserve, will not earn interest for Borrower, and DORSETT may apply the funds in the Reserve Account to reduce the Obligations at any time DORSETT elects.
4. FEES AND EXPENSES . In connection with the Loans there are several types of fees that may be charged and Borrower may be required to maintain a minimum loan balance. Such fees and requirements are set forth in the Schedule. Borrower shall pay DORSETT a closing fee of $1,000 upon execution of this Agreement and all expenses of every kind incurred by DORSETT in connection with collection of the Obligations, inspection, and examination are to be paid by Borrower.
1
5. LOAN ACCOUNT . All of the Obligations which are owed by Borrower will be shown in the Loan Account and Borrower will receive a monthly statement either by mail or electronically at DORSETT’s sole discretion. The statement is binding on Borrower, unless Borrower provides a written objection to DORSETT that is actually received by DORSETT within fifteen (15) business days of the time the statement is provided or made available to Borrower.
6. PAYMENTS . In the event that any payment received by DORSETT is sought to be recovered by or on behalf of the payer (including a trustee in bankruptcy or assignee for the benefit of creditors), then Borrower agrees to immediately reimburse DORSETT on demand for any amount so recovered and all of DORSETT’s expenses in connection with any such proceeding, including reasonable attorney’s fees. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement. Any payments received by DORSETT shall be applied to the Obligations in whatever order DORSETT determines in its reasonable discretion.
7. SECURITY INTEREST .
A. Borrower grants to DORSETT a security interest in all of its assets, now existing or hereafter arising, wherever located including all Accounts, Goods, Inventory, Equipment, Chattel Paper, Instruments, Investment Property, specifically identified Commercial Tort Claims, Documents, Deposit Accounts, Letter of Credit Rights, General Intangibles, Contract Rights, customer lists, furniture and fixtures, books and records and supporting obligations for any of the foregoing, and all proceeds of the foregoing (“Collateral”), to secure repayment of the Obligations (“Security Interest”). The Collateral also includes all monies on deposit with DORSETT, or on deposit in the Lockbox Account. All capitalized terms used in this Section 8A , which are not otherwise defined, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the state of Texas (“UCC”). Without limiting the foregoing, “Accounts” will also mean and include any and all other forms of obligations now owed or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower evidencing any obligation for payment for goods of any kind, nature, or description, sold or leased, or services rendered, and all proceeds of any of the foregoing.
B. Borrower gives DORSETT all of the rights of a secured party under the UCC. Borrower grants DORSETT the authority to file all appropriate documentation for DORSETT to perfect its Security Interest in the Collateral, including a UCC-1 financing statement listing the Collateral as “All assets of the Debtor, now existing and hereafter arising, wherever located,” or similar terms, as well as UCC-3 amendments as may be required from time to time. All expenses of DORSETT relating to searching, filing or protecting the Security Interest are part of the Obligations.
C. The Security Interest gives DORSETT rights with respect to the Collateral and the Security Interest and this Agreement imposes duties upon Borrower which relate to the Collateral. Some of the rights and duties are: (i) the right of DORSETT at any time to notify any persons who may hold any part of the Collateral, such as Account Debtors and other debtors, of DORSETT’s Security Interest. Borrower understands that DORSETT may verify Accounts with the Account Debtors; (ii) Borrower must cooperate with DORSETT in obtaining control of any Collateral in the possession of third persons, particularly Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts, Investment Property, Letter of Credit Rights or other Collateral which is evidenced by electronic entries; (iii) except for the right of Borrower to sell its Inventory in the ordinary course of business, Borrower shall not sell or transfer any of the Collateral or grant any other security interest in the Collateral, except as DORSETT may specifically agree to in writing. Borrower remains liable to perform all of its obligations with respect to the Collateral such as the recognition of any warranties in Inventory sold and DORSETT is under no responsibility to perform any of the obligations of Borrower; and (iv) Borrower must notify DORSETT immediately if it knows that any Account Debtor disputes an Account, whether or not such disputes are deemed valid by Borrower.
2
8. POWER OF ATTORNEY . Borrower irrevocably appoints DORSETT, or any person(s) designated by DORSETT, as its attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest and shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations of Borrower to DORSETT have been fully satisfied and discharged, with full power, at Borrower’s sole expense, to exercise at any time in DORSETT’s reasonable discretion all or any of the following powers:
A. Receive, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept and deposit, in the name of DORSETT or Borrower, any and all cash, checks, commercial paper, drafts, remittances and other instruments and documents relating to the Collateral or the proceeds thereof.

C. Upon and after the occurrence of a Default, to change the address for delivery of Borrower’s mail to DORSETT’s or an address designated by DORSETT.

J. Upon and after a Default, or at any time in the event that Borrower fails to do so within a reasonable time, pay any sums necessary to discharge any lien or encumbrance on the Collateral, which sums shall be included as Obligations hereunder, and which sums shall accrue interest at the Extra Rate until paid in full.
9. REPRESENTATIONS . Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to DORSETT and such representations and warranties must be true at all times until the Obligations are paid in full.

13. DORSETT’S REMEDIES . DORSETT has all the remedies available at law or in equity (including those under the UCC) in the event of a Default or if Borrower fails to pay the Obligations on demand, including but not limited to the following: to charge the Extra Rate; to notify Account Debtors to make the payments directly to DORSETT; to settle or compromise any disputed Account, sue on any Account and make any agreement to deal with the Accounts as if it were the owner; to offset any of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s funds under the control of DORSETT against the Obligations; and to require Borrower to gather up the Collateral and make it available to DORSETT for DORSETT to conduct public or private UCC foreclosure sales.

If DORSETT should proceed against the Collateral and sell any of the Collateral on credit, Borrower will be credited on the Obligations only with the amount actually received by DORSETT and Borrower waives any and all provisions as to notice or a particular method of sale of any of the Collateral. Borrower will pay all expenses in connection with the assembly or sale of the Collateral. DORSETT does not have to incur its own expenses in realizing upon the Collateral, but all the expenses are for the account of Borrower.

DORSETT shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity.

No delay by DORSETT shall constitute a waiver, election or acquiescence by it.
15. LENDER ACTIONS . To the extent applicable law may impose duties on DORSETT to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrower agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for DORSETT: to fail to exercise remedies against any Collateral or any particular Account Debtor; to proceed against Account Debtors either directly or through collection agencies; to advertise disposition of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation; to hire professional auctioneers to dispose of Collateral; to dispose of Collateral in wholesale or retail markets; to disclaim warranties with respect to Collateral; or to obtain services of attorneys or other professionals. The foregoing is not an exhaustive list and nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrower or to impose any duties on DORSETT that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 15 . Borrower agrees that under no circumstances is DORSETT the agent or representative of Borrower.
16. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS . Once collection efforts are commenced by DORSETT, any proceeds of sale or disposition of Collateral may be applied by DORSETT first to expenses authorized by this Agreement, including DORSETT’s reasonable attorney’s fees, which Borrower must pay, and the balance to payment of the Obligations in such manner as DORSETT may elect. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency.
17. NOTICES . Any notice is effective by either party if sent in writing or facsimile with confirmation of receipt or by certified mail or personal delivery or expedited mail services to the addresses shown on the Schedule.

K. Any payment made to DORSETT by either Borrower or Guarantor which is subsequently invalidated, declared fraudulent or preferential or otherwise set aside under any bankruptcy, state, federal or equitable law, then to the extent of such invalidity such payment will be deemed not to have been made and the obligation will continue in full force and effect.

L. No Lien Termination Without Release. In recognition of among other things, Borrower’s indemnification obligations and DORSETT’s right to have its attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred in connection with collection efforts under this Agreement secured by the Collateral, notwithstanding payment in full of all Obligations by Borrower, DORSETT shall not be required to record any terminations or satisfactions of any of its liens on the Collateral unless and until Borrower and all guarantors of its Obligations have executed and delivered to DORSETT a general release in a form acceptable to DORSETT in its sole discretion. Borrower understands that this provision constitutes a waiver of its rights Borrower may have under §9-513 of the UCC.

PROMISSORY NOTE
(Line of Credit)
Principal Amount $1,000,000.00 | Shreveport, Louisiana |
Dated: June 3, 2019
This Promissory Note (Line of Credit) (“Note”) is made by Trinity Services LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (the “Borrower”) who has signed this Note. The Borrower promises to pay to the order of NEWTON DORSETT (“Dorsett”), ON DEMAND, at its offices located at 220 Travis St, Shreveport, Louisiana 71101 or at such other place as Dorsett or the person that then holds this Note designates in writing, the principal amount set forth above or such lesser or greater amount as may then be due under the Agreement (as defined below), plus interest, fees and expenses as hereinafter provided. All payments that are made must be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds. Borrower does not have any right to an offset, deduction, or counterclaim from the amount due.
This Note is referred to in and was delivered pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) of even date between Borrower and Dorsett under which Advances, repayment and further Advances may be made from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement. Reference is made to the Agreement for additional terms relating to this Note and the security given for this Note. Any capitalized terms used in this Note, if not defined in this Note, will have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.
The outstanding principal balance of this Note will bear interest based upon a year of 360 days with interest being charged for each day the principal amount is outstanding including the date of actual payment. The interest rate will be nine percent (9.0%) per annum.
Borrower must pay interest on the principal amount which is outstanding each month in arrears commencing on the first day of the month following the funding of the transaction, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the Indebtedness is fully paid. If the Agreement so provides, interest will also be payable at the same rate on all other sums constituting Indebtedness. If any payment is due on a day which Dorsett is not open for business, then payments will be made on the next business day. Payments will be applied in the manner provided in the Agreement. If Borrower at any time pays less than the amount then due, Dorsett may accept such payment, but the failure to pay the entire amount due is a Default. The (i) failure of Borrower to comply with the provisions of the Agreement or (ii) failure to pay the Indebtedness following demand will permit Dorsett to charge the Extra Rate. The “Extra Rate” shall mean the Effective Rate plus three (3%) percent per annum.
Should Borrower make any payment by mail, the payment must be actually received by Dorsett before the payment is credited but payment is still subject to the Clearance Days as defined in the Schedule to the Agreement. Borrower assumes all risk resulting from non-delivery or delay, in delivery of any payment no matter how the payment is delivered.
If Borrower elects to prepay this Note and/or terminate the Agreement, Borrower may do so, but only upon payment of all the Indebtedness.
It is the intent of the parties that the rate of interest and other charges to Borrower under this Note shall be lawful; therefore, if for any reason the interest or other charges payable hereunder are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit Dorsett may lawfully charge Borrower, then the obligation to pay interest or other charges shall automatically be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be credited to the outstanding principal balance of this Note, or if no such amount is outstanding, refunded to Borrower.
Borrower waives any obligation of Dorsett to present this Note for payment or to give any notice of nonpayment or notice of protest and any other notices of any kind. The liability of the Borrower is absolute and unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party.

Exhibit 99.1
SMG Industries Announces the Signing of a Definitive Agreement to Acquire Trinity Services LLC
Acquisition of This 20 Year Old Oilfield Services Company Operating in the Haynesville Shale Provides Diversification and New Customers
HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 6, 2019 / SMG Industries, Inc. ("SMGI" or the "Company") (OTCQB: SMGI), a growth-oriented oilfield services company operating in the Southwest United States announced today the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Trinity Services LLC ("Trinity") which currently operates in the Haynesville shale area of East Texas and Western Louisiana. This acquisition expands the Company's service footprint into this new area with an existing client base. On an unaudited basis, Trinity generated revenues of approximately $5.4 million in fiscal year 2018, up approximately 80% from 2017 revenues.
Trinity's oilfield services focus and highlights include:
· | Drilling segment focused on building drilling locations, including pad development, pits and lease access roads for oil and gas companies through its fleet of heavy equipment including excavators, tractors, compactors and motor graders, |
· | Production market segment focused on workover and well site services through its workover and swab rigs, |
· | Over 20 years of field service operations serving the Haynesville, Cotton Valley and Bossier and Smackover formations in East Texas and NW Louisiana areas serving oil and gas operators, |
· | Trinity's facilities are strategically located in Waskom, Texas bordering Louisiana, near the resource plays, |
· | Reference customer base with cross-selling opportunities for our existing divisions, and, |
· | Expands the Company's diversification on the production side of the business. |
Mr. Matt Flemming, CEO of SMGI, stated, "The acquisition of Trinity Services will approximately double our Company's current revenues and allows us to immediately cross sell a broader product offering across our customer bases. We anticipate these efforts will result in increased utilization for our frac water management business, Momentum Water Transfer Services, currently operating in South Texas." Mr. Flemming also stated, "The Company believes the Trinity acquisition is immediately accretive to shareholders, improves equity on the balance sheet and assists SMGI in sourcing additional acquisition opportunities."
Mr. Stephen Christian, EVP of Operations stated, "Trinity Services enjoys a great reputation with leading customers in the Haynesville unconventional resource play that is very active with both public and private operating companies. Trinity's management will remain in place, and we believe there is substantial upside from accessing SMGI's customer base for our drilling and completions focused businesses."
Terms of the deal include the issuance of $2 million of 3.0% Series "A" non-redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, that will automatically convert into common shares at a price of $0.50 per share, representing a premium over SMGI's closing stock price on June 5, 2019. Additionally, $500,000 in cash at closing funded from a line of credit and the assumption of approximately $850,000 in low interest equipment notes. The $3.35 million acquisition is expected to close before June 21, 2019.
ROTH Capital Partners acted as an exclusive financial advisor to SMG Industries on this transaction.
