Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On October 1, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Humbly Hemp, Inc., a private Nevada corporation (“Humbly Hemp”), and our subsidiary formed for the purposes of the transaction, Humble Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Humbly Hemp merged with and into the Merger Sub, which resulted in Humbly Hemp becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Acquisition”). Humbly Hemp is a start-up company planning to offer a line of energy and snack bars featuring all-natural hemp and other healthy ingredients. Going forward, we intend to continue developing the business of Humbly Hemp, as well as our existing line of business. The sole officer, director, and controlling shareholder of Humbly Hemp was our own CEO and controlling shareholder, Daniel Crawford.

 

In addition, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement:

 

· The holders of all of the common stock of Humbly Hemp issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition exchanged their shares on a pro-rata basis for a total of 12,048,000 shares newly-issued shares of our common stock.

 

 

· Daniel Crawford, the holder of 10,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Humbly Hemp, exchanged all of his shares of preferred stock in Humbly Hemp for 5,000,000 shares of our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock. Our new Series A Preferred Stock is convertible to common stock at a rate of five (5) shares for every share held and votes together with our common stock at a rate of sixteen (16) votes for every share held. Our new Series A Preferred Stock ranks equally, on an as-converted basis, to our common stock with respect to rights upon winding up, dissolution, or liquidation. Our Series A Preferred Stock does not have any special dividend rights.

 

 

· We assumed certain outstanding Convertible Promissory Notes issued by Humbly Hemp, and agreed that such notes shall be convertible to our common stock at the same prices, and on the same terms and conditions, as set forth therein. The Convertible Promissory Notes assumed were as follows:

Section 9.3 Time Limitations . Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall have any liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation or warranty, or covenant or agreement to be performed and complied with prior to the Effective Time, unless on or before the twelve month anniversary of the Effective Time (the “ Claims Deadline ”), Parent is given notice of a claim with respect thereto, in accordance with Section 9.5 , specifying the factual basis therefore in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the Company Indemnified Parties.

 

Section 9.4 Limitation on Liability . The obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to the Company Indemnified Parties set forth in Section 9.1 shall be subject to the following limitations:

 

(a) The aggregate liability of Parent and Merger Sub to the Company shall not exceed $100,000.

 

(b) Other than claims based on fraud or for specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief, the Company Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims for Damages pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof shall be the indemnification provided under the terms and subject to the conditions of this Article IX .

Section 11.3 Entire Agreement . This Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto or referred to herein constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

 

Section 11.4 Expenses . Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whether or not the Merger occurs, all expenses and fees incurred by Parent and Merger Sub on one hand, and the Company on the other, shall be borne solely and entirely by the party that has incurred the same; provided , that if the Merger occurs, Parent agrees to pay, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay, any unpaid fees and expenses of the Company (including fees and expenses of its counsel and other advisors) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

Section 11.5 Severability . If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to amend or modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

Section 11.6 Successors and Assigns; Assignment . This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

This Agreement and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by electronic mail, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or electronic mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or electronic mail as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

 
 
39

No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. No waiver by any party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

 

Section 11.11 Further Assurances . The parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to do and perform or cause to be done and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments or documents as any other party hereto may reasonably request in order to carry out fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.13 Headings . The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

Section 11.14 Governing Law . This Agreement and the agreements, instruments and documents contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

 

Section 11.15 Dispute Resolution . The parties hereto shall initially attempt to resolve all claims, disputes or controversies arising under, out of or in connection with this Agreement by conducting good faith negotiations amongst themselves. If the parties hereto are unable to resolve the matter following good faith negotiations, the matter shall thereafter be resolved by binding arbitration and each party hereto hereby waives any right it may otherwise have to the resolution of such matter by any means other than binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 11.15 . Whenever a party shall decide to institute arbitration proceedings, it shall provide written notice to that effect to the other parties hereto. The party giving such notice shall, however, refrain from instituting the arbitration proceedings for a period of sixty (60) days following such notice. During this period, the parties shall make good faith efforts to amicably resolve the claim, dispute or controversy without arbitration. Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted in the English language under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any such arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles County, California by a panel of three arbitrators: one arbitrator shall be appointed by each of Parent and Company; and the third shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association. The panel of arbitrators shall have the authority to grant specific performance. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. In no event shall a demand for arbitration be made after the date when institution of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the claim, dispute or controversy in question would be barred under this Agreement or by the applicable statute of limitations. The prevailing party in any arbitration in accordance with this Section 11.15 shall be entitled to recover from the other party, in addition to any other remedies specified in the award, all reasonable costs, attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party to arbitrate the claim, dispute or controversy.

SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

 

On behalf of HealthTalk Live, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), the undersigned hereby certifies that the following resolution has been duly adopted by the board of directors of the Company (the “ Board ”):

 

RESOLVED, that, pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Board by the provisions of the articles of incorporation of the Company (the “ Articles of Incorporation ”), there hereby is created, out of the ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company authorized by the Articles of Incorporation (“ Preferred Stock ”), a series of Series A Preferred Stock, consisting of five million (5,000,000) shares, which series shall have the following powers, designations, preferences and relative participating, optional and other special rights, and the following qualifications, limitations and restrictions:

 

The specific powers, preferences, rights and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock are as follows:

 

1.  Designation; Rank . This series of Preferred Stock shall be designated and known as “Series A Preferred Stock.” The number of shares constituting the Series A Preferred Stock shall be five million (5,000,000) shares. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, rank pari passu to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”) and any previously issued classes of capital stock of the Company.

 

2.  Dividends . The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock have no dividend rights except as may be declared by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion, out of funds legally available for that purpose.

 

3.  Liquidation Preference .

 

(a) In the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (a “ Liquidation ”), whether voluntary or involuntary, the Holders of Series Preferred Stock shall be entitled to participate in any distribution out of the assets of the Company on an equal basis per share with the holders of the Common Stock. For the purposes of such distribution, Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be treated as if all shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted to Common Stock immediately prior to the distribution.

 
 

2

 

 

(b) A sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or an acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, a reorganization, consolidated or merger) that results in the transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting power of the Company (a “ Change in Control Event ”), shall not be deemed to be a Liquidation for purposes of this Designation.

 

4.  Optional Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock . The Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows:

 

(a)  Conversion Right . Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible at the option of the Holder thereof and without the payment of additional consideration by the Holder thereof, at any time, into shares of Common Stock on the Optional Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) at a conversion rate of five (5) shares of Common Stock (the “ Conversion Rate ”) for every one (1) share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

(b)  Mechanics of Optional Conversion . To effect the optional conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 4(a) of this Designation, any Holder of record shall make a written demand for such conversion (for purposes of this Designation, a “ Conversion Demand ”) upon the Company at its principal executive offices setting forth therein (i) the certificate or certificates representing such shares, and the proposed date of such conversion (for purposes of this Designation, the “ Optional Conversion Date ”). Upon receipt of the Conversion Demand, the Company shall give written notice (for purposes of this Designation, a “ Conversion Notice ”) to the Holder setting forth therein (i) the address of the place or places at which the certificate or certificates representing any shares not yet tendered are to be converted are to be surrendered; and (ii) whether the certificate or certificates to be surrendered are required to be endorsed for transfer or accompanied by a duly executed stock power or other appropriate instrument of assignment and, if so, the form of such endorsement or power or other instrument of assignment. The Conversion Notice shall be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such Holder at such Holder’s address as may be set forth in the Conversion Demand or, if not set forth therein, as it appears on the records of the stock transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock, if any, or, if none, of the Company. On or before the Optional Conversion Date, each Holder of the Series A Preferred Stock so to be converted shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by a duly executed stock power or other instrument of assignment, if the Conversion Notice so provides, to the Company at any place set forth in such notice or, if no such place is so set forth, at the principal executive offices of the Company. As soon as practicable after the Optional Conversion Date and the surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such shares, the Company shall issue and deliver to such Holder, or its nominee, at such Holder’s address as it appears on the records of the stock transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock, if any, or, if none, of the Company, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

(c)  No Fractional Shares . No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would be entitled but for the provisions of this Section 4(c) based on the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Holder, the Company shall issue a number of shares to such Holder rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock. No cash shall be paid to any Holder of Series A Preferred Stock by the Company upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock by such Holder.

(d)  Reservation of Stock . The Company shall at all times when any shares of 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 all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

 

(d)  Issue Taxes . The converting Holder shall pay any and all issue and other non-income taxes that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

5.   Voting . The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to cast sixteen (16) votes for every one (1) share of Series A Preferred Stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of holders of the Company’s common stock, including the election of directors, and all other matters as required by law. There is no right to cumulative voting in the election of directors. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with all other classes and series of common stock of the Company as a single class on all actions to be taken by the common stock holders of the Company except to the extent that voting as a separate class or series is required by law.
