Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 20, 2020, Bespoke Extracts, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement with Niquana Noel, the Company’s then-chief executive officer. Pursuant to the letter agreement, Ms. Noel waived any and all accrued but unpaid compensation owed to her in exchange for the right to retain all 20,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company Ms. Noel had acquired upon exercise of warrants, notwithstanding provisions of the warrant agreement that would have required her to return certain shares to the Company in the event of her resignation.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.


The information under Item 5.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

 

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

 

On April 16, 2020, Niquana Noel sold 1 outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company to Danil Pollack for $24,000. The Series C Preferred Stock entitles the holder to 51% of the voting power of the Company’s stockholders, and the stock sale thus resulted in a change in control of the Company. The source of the funds used for the purchase of the stock was Mr. Pollack’s personal funds. The sale was completed in connection with a change in the management and anticipated change in the board of directors of the Company, as further set forth below.

 

On April 21, 2020, Ms. Noel resigned from all positions from the Company, including chief executive officer, president, and chief financial officer, except that, Ms. Noel will remain a director of the Company.

 

On April 21, 2020, Danil Pollack was appointed president, chief executive officer, and chief financial officer of the Company. In connection with Mr. Pollack’s appointment, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Pollack. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Pollack will serve as the Company’s chief executive officer and president for a period of one year, which term will renew automatically for successive one year terms, subject to the right of either party to terminate the agreement at any time upon written notice. Mr. Pollack was granted the right, for a period of six months, to purchase up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company for a purchase price of $0.001 per share.

Prior to joining Bespoke, Mr. Pollack oversaw sales and marketing at 2Marketing as Project Manager, a PPC, SEO and social media and inbound marketing firm in Toronto, from 2017. In addition, he worked as a lead videographer and editor at YP Media Productions, a creative film production agency which he co-founded in 2010. Between 2010 and 2013, Danny also served as Vice President of Operations at Auto Ad, Inc., a full service informercial production agency specializing in the auto dealership market. Fluent in three languages, Mr. Pollack attended the Toronto Film School, as well as Senaca College - York, where he studied computer system technology

The Company anticipates that Ms. Noel will resign as director and Mr. Pollack will be appointed as director upon the Company meeting its information obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ the Executive pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and Executive wishes to be employed by the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.       Employment. The Company will continue to employ Executive, and Executive accepts employment with the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, for the period as of the date of this Agreement and ending as provided in Section 5 (the “Employment Period”).

 

2.       Position and Duties. During the Employment Period, Executive will serve as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive shall render such managerial, supervisory and other executive services to the Company and its Subsidiaries, as are from time to time necessary in connection with the management and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case subject to the authority of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). Executive will devote his best efforts and all of his business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive will report directly to the Board of the Company. Executive will perform his duties and responsibilities to the best of his abilities in a trustworthy and businesslike manner.

 

3.       Compensation and Benefits.

 

(a)       Compensation. Effective upon execution of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants Executive, for a period of 6 months, the right to purchase up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of $0.001 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, and similar transactions. Executive acknowledges such shares will be restricted securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be sold unless registered pursuant to the Securities Act or an available exemption from such registration.

(b)       Reimbursement of Expenses. During the Employment Period, the Company will reimburse Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses necessarily incurred by him in the course of performing his duties under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses. Reimbursement by the Company for the expenses set forth in above will be subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses.

 

4.       Performance Bonuses. During the Employment Period and on an annual basis, Company shall, in the sole discretion of the Board and consistent with the best interests of the Company, the shareholders and corporate governance best practices, pay Executive an annual year-end performance bonus as deemed appropriate by the Board (the “Bonus”).

 

5.       Termination. The Employment Period will commence as of the date of this Agreement and will continue until the one year anniversary of the date hereof, and will automatically renew for additional one year periods, provided that either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon written notice.

  

6.       Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that the information, observations and data that have been or may be obtained by him during his employment relationship with, or through his involvement as a shareholder or director of, the Company or any Subsidiary or predecessor thereof (each of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate or any such Affiliate predecessor being a “Company and its Subsidiaries”), prior to and after the date of this Agreement concerning the business or affairs of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Confidential Information”) are and will be the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Therefore, Executive agrees that he will not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for the account of himself or any other Person any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Company (by the action of the Board), unless and to the extent that such Confidential Information has become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s improper acts or omissions to act, or is required to be disclosed by law. Executive will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company at the termination of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company or any of its predecessors or Subsidiaries may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) containing or relating to Confidential Information or the business of any Company and its Subsidiaries which he may then possess or have under his control.

 

 

 

 

7.       Enforcement. The Company and Executive agree that if, at the time of enforcement of Section 6, a court holds that any restriction stated in any such Section is unreasonable under circumstances then existing, then the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to information of the type described in Section 6, the Company and Executive agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any breach of Section 6. Therefore, in the event of a breach of Section 6, Company and its Subsidiaries may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions of Section 6. The provisions of Section 6 are intended to be for the benefit of each Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective successors and assigns, each of which may enforce such provisions and each of which (other than the Company) is an express third-party beneficiary of such provisions and this Agreement generally. Section 6 will survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the Employment Period.

 

8.       Incentive Compensation Plans. Executive shall be entitled to participate in any and all incentive compensation plans.

 

9.       Other Representations and Warranties of Executive. Executive represents and warrants to the Company and its Subsidiaries as follows:

 

(a)       Other Agreements. Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment, non-compete, non-solicitation, nondisclosure, confidentiality or similar agreement with any other Person which would materially affect his performance under this Agreement.

 

(b)       Authorization. This Agreement when executed and delivered shall constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of Executive, enforceable against Executive in accordance with its terms.
