EXPLANATORY NOTE (REVERSE INFORMATION)

 

We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on September 21, 1989 under the name Fulton Ventures, Inc. and subsequently changed our name to China Grand Resorts Inc. on November 16, 2009. Prior to the Merger (as defined below), we were dormant company without any active operations.

 

On September 14, 2018, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Jacksam Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2018, or the Acquisition Sub, merged with and into Jacksam Corporation, a corporation incorporated in August 2013 in the State of Delaware, referred to herein as Jacksam. Pursuant to this transaction, or the Merger, Acquisition Sub was the surviving corporation, and changed its name to “Jacksam Corporation”. All of the outstanding capital stock of Jacksam was converted into shares of our Common Stock, as described in more detail below.

 

As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of Jacksam and will continue the existing business operations of Jacksam as our wholly-owned operating subsidiary under the name Jacksam Corporation.

 

In accordance with “reverse merger” or “reverse acquisition” accounting treatment, our historical financial statements as of period ends, and for periods ended, prior to the Merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Jacksam, prior to the Merger, in all future filings with the SEC.

 

As used in this Report henceforward, unless otherwise stated or the context clearly indicates otherwise, the terms the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Jacksam Corporation, incorporated in Nevada, after giving effect to the Merger.

 

This Report contains summaries of the material terms of various agreements executed in connection with the transactions described herein. The summaries of these agreements are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by, reference to these agreements, which are filed as exhibits hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

This Report is being filed in connection with a series of transactions consummated by the Company and certain related events and actions taken by the Company.

ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

The information contained in Item 2.01 below relating to the various agreements described therein is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

 

THE MERGER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

Merger Agreement

 

On September 14, 2018, or the Closing Date, the Company, Acquisition Sub and Jacksam entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, or the Merger Agreement, which closed on the same date. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Jacksam merged with and into Acquisition Sub, and Acquisition Sub became the surviving corporation and changed its name to “Jacksam Corporation”.

 

Pursuant to the Merger, we acquired the business of Jacksam, now our wholly-owned subsidiary, which designs, manufactures and sells oil vaporizer cartridges and filling machines, primarily for use in the medical cannabis, hemp, and CBD industries. See “Description of Business” below.

 

Immediately prior to the Merger, we had 33,272,311 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock or any securities convertible into any class of our capital stock issued and outstanding.

 

At the Closing Date, each of the 149,870 shares of Jacksam’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was converted into shares of our Common Stock at a ratio of 1:300.26023 (the “Conversion Ratio”) for a total of 45,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. Additionally, (i) the rights to purchase common stock of Jacksam as contained in those certain Convertible Debentures of Jacksam (the “2017 Debentures”) originally issued between November 2017 and January 2018 in total principal amount of $1,743,500 and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were converted into a corresponding right to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.20 per share, or 8,717,500 shares in total; (ii) the rights to purchase common stock of Jacksam as contained in those certain Convertible Notes of Jacksam (the “2018 Notes”) originally issued in 2018 in total principal amount of $1,500,000 and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were converted into a corresponding right to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.90 per share, or 1,666,667 shares in total; and (iii) the warrant held by Altar Rock Capital (the “Altar Rock Warrant”) to purchase 16,652 shares of common stock of Jacksam was converted into the right to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share. As a result, an aggregate of 60,384,167 shares of our Common Stock, including rights pursuant to the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes, and the Altar Rock Warrant to acquire our Common Stock, were issued to the holders of Jacksam’s capital stock and convertible securities; provided, however, that the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable to any holder of a 2017 Debenture and to the holder of the Altar Rock Warrant may not, in any instance, exceed 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding Common Stock. Finally, 30 million shares of our Common Stock, purchased by Jacksam from Bryan Glass on September 14, 2018 for total consideration of $340,000, our former controlling shareholder, officer and director, were returned to treasury by Jacksam and cancelled.

Table of Contents

 

The pre-Merger stockholders of the Company, other than our former sole officer and director, retained an aggregate of 3,272,311 shares of Common Stock. We issued a total of 45,000,000 shares of our Common Stock to the former shareholders of Jacksam and cancelled 30,000,000 shares, for a net increase in our issued and outstanding Common Stock of 6,282,500. After giving effect to the Merger and the related transactions, we have 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and rights to acquire an additional 15,384,167 shares of our Common Stock.

 

The Merger Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and pre- and post-closing covenants of each party and customary closing conditions.

 

The Merger was treated as a recapitalization and reverse acquisition of the Company for financial accounting purposes. Jacksam is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and our historical financial statements before the Merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Jacksam before the Merger in future filings with the SEC.

 

The Merger is intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

The issuance of shares of our Common Stock, and rights and options to purchase our Common Stock, to holders of Jacksam’s capital stock, convertible securities in connection with the Merger was not registered under the Securities Act, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, and Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, under that section. These securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirement and are subject to further contractual restrictions on transfer as described below.

 

The form of the Merger Agreement is filed as an exhibit to this Report. All descriptions of the Merger Agreement, the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes, and the Altar Rock Warrant set forth herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text thereof filed as an exhibit hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Registration Rights

 

In connection with our assumption of Jacksam’s obligations under the 2017 Debentures and the associated Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed that promptly, but no later than 45 calendar days from the final closing of the Merger, the Company will file a registration statement with the SEC, or the Registration Statement, covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 2017 Debentures, collectively, the Registrable Shares. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such Registration Statement is declared effective within 180 calendar days after the filing of the Registration Statement. If the Company is late in filing the Registration Statement, the Company will make payments to each holder of 2017 Debentures as monetary penalties at a rate equal to 2% of the face amount of the 2017 Debenture held by such holder. If the Registration Statement is not declared effective within 180 days after the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company will make payments to each holder of 2017 Debentures as monetary penalties at a rate equal to 1% of the face amount of the 2017 Debenture held by such holder. If the Company fails to maintain the Registration Statement continuously effective as to all Registrable Shares included in such Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement or the Registrable Shares are not listed on an approved market or if trading of the Common Stock on such market is suspended or halted, the Company will make payments to each holder of Registrable Shares as monetary penalties at a rate equal to 1% of the face amount of the 2017 Debenture held by such holder for each thirty day period of suspension. No monetary penalties will accrue with respect to any Registrable Shares removed from the Registration Statement in response to a comment from the staff of the SEC limiting the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration.

Table of Contents

 

The Company must keep the Registration Statement effective for two years from the date it is declared effective by the SEC or until (i) the Registrable Shares have been sold in accordance with such effective Registration Statement or (ii) the Registrable Shares have been sold in accordance with Rule 144.

 

We will pay all expenses in connection with any registration obligation provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, including, without limitation, all registration, filing, stock exchange fees, printing expenses, all fees and expenses of complying with applicable securities laws, and the fees and disbursements of our counsel and of our independent accountants. Each investor will be responsible for its own sales commissions, if any, transfer taxes and the expenses of any attorney or other advisor such investor decides to employ.

 

In addition, the holders of the 2017 Debentures have agreed that, prior to December 1, 2019, no holder will sell shares of our Common Stock in excess of the volume and price limitations set forth in that certain Lock-up and Leak Out Agreement dated December 1, 2017.

 

In connection with our assumption of the 2018 Notes, in the event the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon conversion would not be tradeable by the holders of the 2018 Notes by March 19, 2019, we will be obligated, upon request by the holders of the 2018 Notes, to file a registration statement for such Common Stock.

 

In connection with our assumption of the Altar Rock Warrant, we are required to file a registration statement for the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant within 45 days of closing the Merger.

 

All descriptions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes, and the Lock-up and Leak Out Agreement set forth herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text thereof filed as an exhibit hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Departure and Appointment of Directors and Officers

 

Our board of directors is authorized to consist of, and currently consists of, four members. On the Closing Date, Mr. Bryan Glass our sole director before the Merger, resigned from his position as a director, and Daniel Davis (as Chairman), Mark Adams, Scott Wessler, and Theodore Winston, were appointed to the board of directors.

 

Also on the Closing Date, Mr. Bryan Glass, our Chief Executive Officer, and our principal executive, secretary, and financial and accounting officer for SEC reporting purposes before the Merger, resigned from these positions, and Mark Adams was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and President, Michael Sakala was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Secretary by our board of directors.

 

Mark Adams will be our principal executive officer and Michael Sakala will be our principal financial and accounting officer for SEC reporting purposes.

Pro Forma Ownership

 

Immediately after giving effect to (i) the Merger, and (ii) the cancellation of the shares of our Common Stock held by Jacksam, there were 48,272,311 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date plus rights to acquire an additional 15,384,167 shares of our common stock, as follows:

 

 

· the stockholders of Jacksam prior to the Merger hold 45,000,000 shares of our Common Stock;

 

 

 

 

· the stockholders of the Company prior to the Merger hold 3,272,311 shares of our Common Stock; and

 

 

 

 

· holders of the Jacksam 2017 Debentures would hold, upon conversion, 8,717,500 shares of our Common Stock – provided, however, that no holder of a 2017 Debenture may convert if and to the extent such a conversion would cause that holder to be the beneficial owner of greater than 4.99% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock;

 

 

 

 

· holders of the Jacksam 2018 Notes would hold, upon conversion, 1,666,667 shares of our Common Stock; and

 

 

 

 

· Altar Rock Capital, as holder of the Altar Rock Warrant, is entitled to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at $0.001 per share– provided, however, that the Altar Rock Warrant may not be exercised if and to the extent such an exercise would cause the holder to be the beneficial owner of greater than 4.99% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock.
 

No other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Common Stock are outstanding.

 

Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Markets quotation system under the symbol “CGND.” We anticipate submitting a request to FINRA to change our ticker symbol.

 

Accounting Treatment; Change of Control

 

The Merger is being accounted for as a “reverse merger” or “reverse acquisition,” and Jacksam is deemed to be the acquirer in the reverse merger. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that will be reflected in the financial statements prior to the Merger will be those of Jacksam, and will be recorded at the historical cost basis of Jacksam, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the Merger will include the assets and liabilities of Jacksam, historical operations of Jacksam, and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries from the closing date of the Merger. As a result of the issuance of the shares of our Common Stock pursuant to the Merger, a change in control of the Company occurred as of the date of consummation of the Merger.

 

Except as described in this Report, no arrangements or understandings exist among present or former controlling stockholders with respect to the election of members of our board of directors and, to our knowledge, no other arrangements exist that might result in a change of control of the Company.

 

We continue to be a “smaller reporting company,” as defined under the Exchange Act, and an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, following the Merger. We believe that as a result of the Merger we have ceased to be a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act).

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Immediately following the Merger, the business of Jacksam became our business, which we now operate as our wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

Corporate Information

 

As described above, we were incorporated in the state of Nevada on September 21, 1989 under the name Fulton Ventures, Inc. and subsequently changed our name to China Grand Resorts Inc. on November 16, 2009. Prior to the Merger, we were dormant company without any active operations. As a result of the Merger, we have acquired the business of Jacksam, which we now operate as our wholly-owned subsidiary. Jacksam commenced operations as a Delaware corporation in August 2013 under the name Jacksam Corporation.

 

Our authorized capital stock currently consists of 90 million shares of Common Stock and 10 million shares of the preferred stock. Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol “CGND.”

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 30191 Avenida de Las Banderas Ste. B, Rancho Santa Margarita, California 92688. Our telephone number is (800) 605-3580. Our website address is www.convectium.com. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not a part of this Report.

 

Company Overview

 

We are a technology company focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing our proprietary technology platform. We service the medical cannabis, hemp and CBD segments of the larger e-cigarette and vaporizer markets with our oil vaporizer focused products. At present, we have three principal product lines consisting of the 710 Shark cartridge filling machine, the 710 Captain cartridge capping machine, and our proprietary cartridges. Our customers are primarily businesses operating in jurisdictions that have some form of cannabis legalization. These businesses include medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small-scale processors and growers, and distributors. We expect continued growth as we take measures to invest in our own molds and intellectual property. We utilize a direct sales force, independent sales representatives, a referral network of manufacturers of related equipment, and our website, convectium.com, to sell our principal products.

 

Our flagship product is the 710 Shark vaporizer cartridge filling machine. It is designed to inject oil into various cartridges (glass, plastic and PODS) while also having the capability to fill bottles and other form factors. The 710 Shark is based on a pneumatic system and has a heating mechanism that allows the oil to be injected and processed. It can fill 100 traditional cartridges in less than 30 seconds, saving our customers the valuable time and labor expense of hand filling cartridges - which is currently the industry norm. We estimate that, in most applications, the 710 Shark will have a 60x faster rate than hand filling. The 710 Shark is currently produced in China and the machine is now on its seventh version.

Table of Contents

 

In the second quarter of 2018 we introduced our 710 Captain capping machine. It is designed to affix caps to the cartridges filled by our 710 Shark filling machine and matches the production capacity of the 710 Shark at 100 cartridges in 30 seconds. It is pneumatically operated. The 710 Captain is currently produced in Irvine, California, by a contract manufacturer.

 

A much smaller portion of our business consists of our sales of non-proprietary vaporizer cartridges with core materials ranging from plastic to glass and heating technology from cotton wicks to ceramic and wickless materials. We also offer a selection of batteries to match the cartridges. Batteries range from button-less standard heating to push-button adjustable heating settings. Most of the vaporizer cartridge and battery units can be customized to our customers’ specifications, including adjusting colors, materials, and adding logos and images per the customer’s request. We deliver the vaporizer products unassembled and deliver the hardware directly to customers where the product is then filled and assembled at customer’s place of business by their personnel. We maintain relationships with packaging manufacturers who offer sophisticated labeling and customization capabilities, allow us to add value to our customers’ packaging design processes.

 

We generated revenues from sales of our products of approximately $750,535 for the year ended December 31, 2016, and $1,569,456 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, and $3,352,227 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and $850,857 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Market Overview

 

We compete at the convergence of two larger, fast-growing industries; e-cigarettes and cannabis. In cannabis, the number of states that have passed either a medical or adult cannabis recreational use initiatives is up to 30, plus Washington D.C. As legalization expands, the cannabis e-cigarette industry has also continued to grow.

 

For example, Colorado has continued to set new sales growth-related records, generating just under $1.5B in gross sales in FY 2017; up from the $1.3B recorded in FY 2016. It is noteworthy that these record sales occurred in a marketplace where the overall wholesale price market has experienced a significant drop off since the initiation of adult sales in early 2014. Wholesale flower has dropped from a high in early 2014 of $4,000+ a pound to approximately $1,200 a pound according to year end information provided by New Leaf Data Services.

 

E-cigarettes are also a high-growth business. According to an October 2017 report from Accuray Research, the larger global e-cigarette and vaporizer market is poised to grow at a compounded annual rate of around 20.8% over the next decade to reach approximately $61.4 billion by 2025.

 

Government Regulations

 

The manufacture and sale of our products is not subject to significant governmental regulation beyond that with is generally applicable to all businesses. However, as is discussed in “Risk Factors” below, our customers are generally involved in the manufacture and sale of Cannabis, which is a Schedule-I controlled substance and is illegal under federal law. At present, however, 30 states and the District of Columbia allow their citizens to use medical or adult recreational cannabis. The laws of these states are in conflict with the Federal Controlled Substances Act, which makes cannabis use and possession illegal on a national level. If the federal government decides to enforce the Controlled Substances Act with respect to cannabis, persons that are charged with distributing, possessing with intent to distribute, or growing cannabis could be subject to fines and imprisonment, the maximum being life imprisonment and a $50 million fine. Any such change in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws will cause significant financial damage to us.

Table of Contents

 

Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal cannabis laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. These ever-changing regulations could even affect federal tax policies that may make it difficult to claim tax deductions on our returns. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.

 

Our Strategy

 

Our goal is to become a leading technology company in that segment of the vaporizer filling, capping and systems business that focuses on serving the cannabis, hemp and CBD industries. We are focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing our proprietary filling, capping and vaporizer systems.

 

Our immediate term goals are:

 

 

· Increase awareness, efficiency and demand for the 710 Shark and the 710 Captain machines . We intend to continue to develop increasing efficient and fast iterations of our Shark filling machine and our Captain capping machine.

 

 

 

 

· Create new products . We plan to create more proprietary vaporization cartridges that we can sell to our customers as a closed proprietary system.

 

 

 

 

· Increase our domestic and international presence. As more states and countries approve legalized cannabis use, we plan on hiring additional sales personnel where appropriate to take advantage of new markets. We also plan to continue to grow our distributor and affiliate networks to meet expected additional demand for our products.

Sales and Marketing

 

We have two distinct distribution platforms for our products, traditional direct sales and online sales. The majority of our sales are direct B2B sales of our principal products, namely the 710 Shark, the 710 Captain and our proprietary cartridges in North America. We generate these sales through our employed sales force, outside independent sales representatives, and our referral network of related equipment manufacturers and resellers. Our primary customers for our principal products are medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small-scale processors and growers, and distributors. We utilize our convectium.com website to support these sales channels and products.

 

Separately, and at a much smaller scale, we sell non-proprietary cartridge and battery units both B2B and B2C using our BlackoutX.com website with limited support from our inside sales staff. While we have sold these collateral products into 52 different countries, most sales are into North America. We do not intend to devote substantial resources to expand this business over the next twelve months.

 

Our employed sales force consists of seven direct sales representatives and three inside sales representatives. The inside sales representatives are prospecting for leads and pass along larger leads to the outside representatives. We anticipate continued expansion of our sales team throughout North America as the demand for our products continues to expand.

 

Our marketing efforts include attending industry trade shows. In 2017, we participated in nine such trade shows which we believe helped generate a significant amount of business and marketing opportunities. To date in 2018 we have attended nine trade shows and anticipate participating in an additional five trade shows before year end. We typically have a 10’ x 20’ booth with demo machines and various pens and cartridges that we sell.

We also advertise in industry magazines and at other regional events where both B2B and B2C opportunities exist. We plan to expand our marketing efforts to new jurisdictions as they pass medical and recreational cannabis use laws. We also believe we have a large opportunity in the Canadian marketplace which plans to be recreationally legal for oils sometime in 2019.

 

We also have entered into referral and reseller agreements to expand our market footprint across North America. Our partners include extraction companies, wholesalers, distributors and individuals with significant industry contacts. We intend to expand the number of referral and reseller partners. These agreements typically provide a commission or referral fee to the source upon a completed sale.

 

Competition

 

The automated cartridge filling and packaging industry in the cannabis, hemp and CBD marketplace is relatively nascent. We believe that we are the largest manufacturer of cannabis focused filling machines, with an approximately 50% market share by units sold. Most cartridge filling operations are still done by hand at present, with a throughput rate of approximately 75 per hour. Hand-filling remains our largest competitor.

 

The competition in the cannabis specific filling machine market consists of a few players that are focused on regional markets and small growers. Our most direct competitors include Thompson-Duke, Transpring, and Cooljarz. Thompson-Duke is based in Oregon. Its system will fill approximately 16-20 cartridges per minute. Transpring is based in China. Its system will fill approximately 30 cartridges per minute. Cooljarz is based in California. Its system will fill approximately 12 cartridges per minute.

 

Additionally, there are a few manufacturers that manufacture and distribute directly from China, none of which appear to have gained significant market share.

 

Our most substantial competitive threat would be from the large tobacco e-cigarette manufacturers and the large medical equipment manufacturers, should either decide to enter the automated cartridge filling and packaging industry for cannabis, hemp and CBD. Many of these companies possess substantially greater manufacturing, sales, marketing, research and development, and financial resources. To date, however, none have entered the market. Nor are we aware of any with immediate plans to do so. We believe that failure is due to the fact that federal and state laws are in the process of changing significantly. Were any large tobacco e-cigarette manufacturer or medical equipment manufacturer to enter the market, our business and prospects would be adversely affected.

 

Manufacturing

 

We currently manufacture our 710 Shark filling machine and proprietary cartridges in Shenzen, China, using a contract manufacturer. We currently manufacture our 710 Captain capping machine in Irvine, California, using a different contract manufacturer. We also utilize approximately 800 square feet of our headquarters facility in Rancho Santa Margarita, California, for distribution, service and inventory of our 710 Shark and 710 Captain machines, cartridges, and accessories from this facility.

 

We utilize two different packaging partners to help custom design and offer packaging solutions to our customers. Our partners have manufacturing facilities in Southern California and Texas.

Material Agreements

 

Our only material agreements at present are with our landlord and with our executive employees.

 

Rancho Santa Margarita Lease

 

On April 30, 2017 we entered into a lease with Pacific Margarita LLC for premises consisting of approximately 2,000 square feet located at 30191 Avenida de las Banderas, Ste. B in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. The lease commenced on April 1st, 2017 and is for a term of 37 calendar months. We received the first month at no cost and the lease expense was $3,082 for months 2-12 and increases according to the following schedule: $3,617 for months 13-25, then $3,761 for months 26-37. We have an option to extend for an additional two (2) years under the same terms and conditions as the original lease, but subject to an adjustment of the rental rate to the then fair market value.

 

Our employment agreements with Mark Adams and Daniel Davis are discussed below, under Executive Compensation.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We currently have one Certificate of Design Patent from the Peoples Republic of China for the 710 Shark filling machine, number ZL201630571863.4 issued May 31, 2017. We have not filed for any other patents but continue to examine whether, and where, it may be advantageous for us to do so. We intend to seek US patents for certain aspects of our 710 Shark and our 710 Captain machines as well as certain of our proprietary cartridges.

 

In addition, we also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, trademarks, copyright protection, and continuing technological opportunities to develop and maintain our competitive position. We have periodically monitored and continue to monitor the activities of our competitors and other third parties with respect to their use of intellectual property. We require our employees, consultants, and third-party collaborators to execute confidentiality and invention assignment agreements upon commencing employment or consulting relationships with us.

 

Research and Development

 

Our research and development group consists of our founder and three employed engineers. These individuals also work with our manufacturers to design new products. We are currently in the process of developing a updated 710 Shark filling machine, an updated 710 Captain capping machine and new proprietary vaporizers and cartridges.

 

Employees

 

Presently, we have 18 full-time employees. Eleven employees are engaged in marketing, sales and business development, three employees, plus our founder, are engaged in research and development and engineering, two are engaged in project management and manufacturing, one is engaged in shipping and logistics management, and three employees are engaged in general management and administration. We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees, and we have not experienced any work stoppages. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Facilities

 

On April 30, 2017 we entered into a lease with Pacific Margarita LLC for premises consisting of approximately 2,000 square feet located at 30191 Avenida de las Banderas, Ste. B in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. The lease commenced on April 1st, 2017 and is for a term of 37 calendar months. We received the first month at no cost and the lease expense was $3,082 for months 2-12 and increases according to the following schedule: $3,617 for months 13-25, then $3,761 for months 26-37. We have an option to extend for an additional two (2) years under the same terms and conditions as the original lease, but subject to an adjustment of the rental rate to the then fair market value.

 

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks described below and all of the other information set forth in this Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” before deciding to invest in our common stock. If any of the events or developments described below occur, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the market price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our operations.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Strategy

 

We may need additional capital in the future, which could dilute the ownership of current shareholders or we may be unable to secure additional funding in the future or to obtain such funding on favorable terms.

 

Historically, we have raised equity capital, including debt convertible into equity capital, to support and expand our operations. To the extent that we raise additional equity capital, existing shareholders will experience a dilution in the voting power and ownership of their common stock, and earnings per share, if any, would be negatively impacted. Our inability to use our equity securities to finance our operations could materially limit our growth. Any borrowings made to finance operations could make us more vulnerable to a downturn in our operating results, a downturn in economic conditions, or increases in interest rates on borrowings that are subject to interest rate fluctuations. The amount and timing of such additional financing needs will vary principally depending on the timing of new product launches, investments and/or acquisitions, and the amount of cash flow from our operations. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to issue additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. If our cash flow from operations is insufficient to meet any debt service requirements, we could be required to sell additional equity securities, refinance our obligations, or dispose of assets in order to meet debt service requirements. There can be no assurance that any financing will be available to us when needed or will be available on terms acceptable to us. Our failure to obtain sufficient financing on favorable terms and conditions could have a material adverse effect on our growth prospects and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Even if we obtain more customers, there is no assurance that we will make a profit.

 

We have not earned a profit since inception. Even if we obtain more customers or increase sales to our existing customers, there is no guarantee that we will be able to generate a profit. Because we are a small company and have limited capital, we must limit our products and services. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy our products to operate profitably. Further, we are subject to raw material pricing which can erode the profitability of our products and put additional negative pressure on profitability. If we cannot operate profitably, we may have to suspend or cease operations.

U.S. Federal and foreign regulation and enforcement may adversely affect the implementation of cannabis laws and regulations and may negatively impact our revenue or we may be found to be violating the Controlled Substances Act or other U.S. federal, state, or foreign laws.

 

Cannabis is a Schedule-I controlled substance and is illegal under federal law. Even in those states where the use of cannabis has been legalized, its use remains a violation of federal law. A Schedule I controlled substance is defined as a substance that has no currently accepted medical use in the United States, a lack of safety for use under medical supervision and a high potential for abuse. The Department of Justice defines Schedule 1 controlled substances as “the most dangerous drugs of all the drug schedules with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence.”

 

At present, 30 states and the District of Columbia allow their citizens to use medical cannabis. Additionally, 9 states have approved legalization of cannabis for adult recreational use. The laws of these states are in conflict with the Federal Controlled Substances Act, which makes cannabis use and possession illegal on a national level. If the federal government decides to enforce the Controlled Substances Act with respect to cannabis, persons that are charged with distributing, possessing with intent to distribute, or growing cannabis could be subject to fines and imprisonment, the maximum being life imprisonment and a $50 million fine. Any such change in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws will cause significant financial damage to us.

 

Previously, the Obama administration, memorialized in what has come to be commonly known as the Cole Memorandum, took the position that it was not an efficient use of resources to direct federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state-designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical cannabis. The Trump administration has revised this policy. Specifically, Attorney General Jeff Sessions has rescinded the Cole Memorandum guidance in favor of deferral of any enforcement of federal regulation to the individual states’ US Attorney.

 

Even under the prior Cole Memorandum guidance, the Department of Justice stated that it would continue to enforce the Controlled Substance Act with respect to cannabis to prevent:

 

 

· the distribution of cannabis to minors;

 

· criminal enterprises, gangs and cartels receiving revenue from the sale of cannabis;

 

· the diversion of cannabis from states where it is legal under state law to other states;

 

· state-authorized cannabis activity from being used as a cover or pretext for the trafficking of other illegal drugs or other illegal activity;

 

· violence and the use of firearms in the cultivation and distribution of cannabis;

 

· driving while impaired and the exacerbation of other adverse public health consequences associated with cannabis use;

 

· the growing of cannabis on public lands; and

 

· cannabis possession or use on federal property.
 
 

Despite the rescission of the Cole Memorandum, certain other protections for state-legal cannabis businesses remain in place via budgetary an element embedment which limits funding of any enforcement of anti-cannabis legislation. However, being an amendment to an appropriations bill, those protections must be renewed annually. The currently enacted Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Act, which includes the protective embedment (the Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment), is effective by passage of a short-term continuing resolution only through December 8, 2017, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions has urged members of Congress to not renew the amendment.

Since the use of cannabis is illegal under federal law, federally chartered banks will not accept for deposit funds from businesses involved with cannabis. Consequently, businesses involved in the cannabis industry often have trouble finding a bank willing to accept their business. The inability to open bank accounts may make it difficult for our customers to operate. There does appears to be recent movement to allow state-chartered banks and credit unions to provide banking to the industry, but as of the date of this report there are only nominal entities that have been formed that offer these services. Further, in a February 6, 2018, Forbes article, United States Secretary of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, is reported to have testified that his department is "reviewing the existing guidance." But he clarified that he doesn't want to rescind it without having an alternate policy in place to address public safety concerns.

 

Any change in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial damage to us and our shareholders.

 

Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal cannabis laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. These ever-changing regulations could even affect federal tax policies that may make it difficult to claim tax deductions on our returns. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.

 

We and our customers may have difficulty accessing the service of banks, which may make it difficult to sell our products and service s .

 

Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by cannabis-related conduct can form the basis for prosecution under the federal money laundering statutes, unlicensed money transmitter statute and the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act. Despite guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury suggesting it may be possible for financial institutions to provide services to cannabis-related businesses consistent with their obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks remain hesitant to offer banking services to cannabis-related businesses. Consequently, those businesses involved in the cannabis industry continue to encounter difficulty establishing banking relationships. Our inability to maintain our current bank accounts would make it difficult for us to operate our business, increase our operating costs, and pose additional operational, logistical and security challenges and could result in our inability to implement our business plan. Similarly, many of our customers are directly involved in cannabis sales and further restriction to their ability to access banking services may make it difficult for them to purchase our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We are subject to certain federal regulations relating to cash reporting.

 

The Bank Secrecy Act, enforced by FinCEN, requires us to report currency transactions in excess of $10,000, including identification of the customer by name and social security number, to the IRS. This regulation also requires us to report certain suspicious activity, including any transaction that exceeds $5,000 that we know, suspect or have reason to believe involves funds from illegal activity or is designed to evade federal regulations or reporting requirements and to verify sources of funds. Substantial penalties can be imposed against us if we fail to comply with this regulation. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, the imposition of a substantial penalty could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our inability to effectively manage our growth could harm our business and materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

 

Our strategy envisions growing our business. We plan to expand our product, sales, administrative and marketing operations. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to continue to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure and systems. As with other growing businesses, we expect that we will need to further refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes and our access to financing sources. We also will need to hire, train, supervise, and manage new employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention. We cannot assure that we will be able to:

 

 

· expand our products effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner;

 

· allocate our human resources optimally;

 

· meet our capital needs;

 

· identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or

 

· effectively incorporate the components of any business or product line that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth.
 

Our inability or failure to manage our growth and expansion effectively could harm our business and materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

 

If we do not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, we could lose revenue opportunities.

 

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand our product and service offerings. To that end we have engaged in the process of identifying new product opportunities to provide additional products and related services to our customers. The processes of identifying and commercializing new products is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict our customers’ changing needs and emerging trends, our business could be harmed. We have already and may have to continue to commit significant resources to commercializing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not execute successfully on commercializing those products because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a reduction in net sales and earnings.

 

The success of new products depends on several factors, including proper new product definition, timely completion, and introduction of these products, differentiation of new products from those of our competitors, and market acceptance of these products. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify additional new product opportunities, develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

Our future success depends on our ability to grow and expand our customer base. Our failure to achieve such growth or expansion could materially harm our business.

 

To date, our revenue growth has been derived from the sale of our products. Our success and the planned growth and expansion of our business depend on us achieving greater and broader acceptance of our products and expanding our customer base. There can be no assurance that customers will purchase our products or that we will continue to expand our customer base. If we are unable to effectively market or expand our product offerings, we will be unable to grow and expand our business or implement our business strategy. This could materially impair our ability to increase sales and revenue and materially and adversely affect our margins, which could harm our business.

 

Our suppliers could fail to fulfill our orders for parts used to assemble our products, which would disrupt our business, increase our costs, harm our reputation, and potentially cause us to lose our market.

 

We depend on third party suppliers in The People’s Republic of China for manufacture of our products, namely our 710 Shark machine and some of proprietary cartridges. Our suppliers could fail to produce products to our specifications or in a workmanlike manner and may not deliver the material or products on a timely basis. Our suppliers may also have to obtain inventories of the necessary parts and tools for production. Any change in our suppliers’ approach to resolving production issues could disrupt our ability to fulfill orders and could also disrupt our business due to delays in finding new suppliers, providing specifications and testing initial production. Such disruptions in our business and/or delays in fulfilling orders could harm our reputation and could potentially cause us to lose our market.

 

Our inability to effectively protect our intellectual property would adversely affect our ability to compete effectively, our revenue, our financial condition, and our results of operations.

 

At present we have only a single patent, issued by China, for our 710 Shark filling machine. We do not have any other US or foreign patents. We may be unable to obtain intellectual property rights to effectively protect our branding, products, and other intangible assets. Our ability to compete effectively may be affected by the nature and breadth of our intellectual property rights. While we intend to defend against any threats to our intellectual property rights, there can be no assurance that any such actions will adequately protect our interests. If we are unable to secure intellectual property rights to effectively protect our branding, products, and other intangible assets, our revenue and earnings, financial condition, or results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

We also rely on non-disclosure and non-competition agreements to protect portions of our intellectual property portfolio. There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, that third parties will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or proprietary knowledge, or that third parties will not independently develop competitive products with similar intellectual property.

We will be required to attract and retain top quality talent to compete in the marketplace.

 

We believe our future growth and success will depend in part on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, product development, sales and marketing, and finance personnel. There can be no assurance of success in attracting and retaining such personnel. Shortages in qualified personnel could limit our ability to increase sales of existing products and launch new product offerings.

 

If we fail to retain key personnel and hire, train and retain qualified employees, we may not be able to compete effectively, which could result in reduced revenue or increased costs.

 

Our success is highly dependent on the continued services of key management and technical personnel. Our management and other employees may voluntarily terminate their employment at any time upon short notice. The loss of the services of any member of the senior management team, including our Chief Executive Officer, Mark Adams; the Chief Financial Officer, Mike Sakala; or any of the managerial or technical staff may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of product development, our growth strategies and other business objectives. Our future success will also depend on our ability to identify, recruit and retain additional qualified technical and managerial personnel. Competition for qualified personnel is often intense, particularly in the areas of general management, finance, engineering and science, and the process of hiring suitably qualified personnel is often lengthy and expensive, and may become more expensive in the future. If we are unable to hire and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees, our ability to conduct and expand our business could be seriously reduced.

 

If product liability lawsuits are successfully brought against us, we will incur substantial liabilities.

 

We face an inherent risk of product liability. For example, we may be sued if any product we sell allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable during product testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability and a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit sales of our products. Even successful defense would require significant financial and management resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

 

 

· decreased demand for our products;

 

· injury to our reputation;

 

· costs to defend the related litigation;

 

· a diversion of management's time and our resources;

 

· substantial monetary awards to users of our products;

 

· product recalls or withdrawals;

 

· loss of revenue; and

 

· a decline in our stock price.
 

In addition, while we continue to take what we believe are appropriate precautions, we may be unable to avoid significant liability if any product liability lawsuit is brought against us.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Capital Stock

 

The trading market for our common stock is limited.

 

We will be quoted on the OTC Markets Group’s pink trading platform under the trading symbol “CGND”. The OTC Markets Group is regarded as a junior trading venue. This may result in limited shareholder interest and hence lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained.

 

There is not any significant trading activity in our Common Stock or a market for shares of our Common Stock, and an active trading market for our shares may never develop or be sustained. As a result, investors in our Common Stock must bear the economic risk of holding those shares for an indefinite period of time. We do not now, and may not in the future, meet the initial listing standards of any national securities exchange, and our Common Stock may be quoted on the OTC pink system for the foreseeable future. In these marketplaces, our stockholders may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of their shares of our Common Stock and may find few buyers to purchase their stock and few market makers to support its price. As a result of these and other factors, investors may be unable to resell shares of our Common Stock at or above the price for which they purchased them, at or near quoted bid prices, or at all. Further, an inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling additional equity in the future and may impair our ability to enter into strategic partnerships or acquire companies or products by using shares of our Common Stock as consideration.

 

Our principal stockholders, executive officers and directors own a significant percentage of our common stock and will be able to exert a significant control over matters submitted to the stockholders for approval.

 

Our officers and directors, and stockholders who own more than 5% of our common stock beneficially own a significant percentage of our common stock. This significant concentration of share ownership may adversely affect the trading price for our common stock because investors often perceive disadvantages in owning stock in companies with controlling stockholders. These stockholders, if they acted together, could significantly influence all matters requiring approval by the stockholders, including the election of directors. The interests of these stockholders may not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders.

 

We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividend on our common stock and do not currently intend to do so for the foreseeable future. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the success of an investment in shares of our common stock will depend upon any future appreciation in their value. There is no guarantee that shares of our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our stockholders have purchased their shares.

If we fail to establish or maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our common stock may, therefore, be adversely impacted.

 

Our reporting obligations as a public company place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources, and systems for the foreseeable future. Annually, we are required to prepare a management report on our internal control over financial reporting containing our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Management has presently concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective and shall report such in management’s report in this Form 8-K. In the event that the Company’s status with the SEC changes to that of an accelerated filer from a smaller reporting company, our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to attest to and report on our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Under such circumstances, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting are effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may still decline to attest to our management’s assessment or may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us.

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and may be affected by market conditions beyond our control. The market price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors:

 

 

· variations in our operating results and market conditions specific to our business;

 

 

 

 

· the emergence of new competitors or new technologies;

 

 

 

 

· operating and market price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable;

 

 

 

 

· changes in our Board or management;

 

 

 

 

· sales or purchases of our common stock by insiders;

 

 

 

 

· commencement of, or involvement in, litigation;

 

 

 

 

· changes in governmental regulations, in particular with respect to the cannabis industry; and

 

 

 

 

· general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of related markets.
 

In addition, if the market for stocks in our industry, or the stock market in general, experiences a loss of investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition, or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause the price of our common stock to fall and may expose us to lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to our Board of Directors and management.

The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.

 

The SEC has adopted Rule 3a51-1, which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:

 

 

· that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, and

 

 

 

 

· the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

 

 

 

· In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

 

 

 

· obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person, and

 

 

 

 

· make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

 

 

 

· The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

 

 

 

· sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and

 

 

 

 

· that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

We may have material liabilities that were not discovered before, and have not been discovered since, the closing of the Merger.

 

As a result of the Merger, our prior business plan and management was abandoned and replaced with the business and management team of Jacksam. Prior to the Merger, there were no relationships or other connections among the businesses or individuals associated with the two pre-Merger entities. As a result, we may have material liabilities based on activities before the Merger that have not been discovered or asserted. We could experience losses as a result of any such undisclosed liabilities that are discovered in the future, which could materially harm our business and financial condition. Although the agreement entered into in connection with the Merger contains customary representations and warranties from both pre-Merger entities concerning their respective assets, liabilities, financial condition and affairs, there may be limited or no recourse against the pre-Merger stockholders or principals in the event those representations prove to be untrue. As a result, our current and future stockholders will bear some, or all, of the risks relating to any such unknown or undisclosed liabilities.

 

We may be exposed to additional risks as a result of “going public” by means of a reverse acquisition transaction.

 

We may be exposed to additional risks because the prior business operations of Jacksam have become a public company through a “reverse acquisition” transaction. There has been increased focus by government agencies on transactions structured similarly to the Merger in recent years, and we may be subject to increased scrutiny by the SEC and other government agencies and holders of our securities as a result of the Merger.

Further, as a result of our existence as a “shell company” under applicable rules of the SEC, prior to the closing of the Merger, we are subject to certain restrictions and limitations for certain specified periods of time relating to potential future issuances of our securities and compliance with applicable SEC rules and regulations. Additionally, our “going public” by means of a reverse acquisition transaction may make it more difficult for us to obtain coverage from securities analysts of major brokerage firms following the Merger because of the perceived risk to those brokerage firms of recommending the purchase of our Common Stock. Further, investment banks may be less likely to agree to underwrite secondary offerings on our behalf than they might if we became a public reporting company by means of an initial public offering, or IPO, because they may be less familiar with our company as a result of more limited coverage by analysts and the media, and because we became public at an early stage in our development. The failure to receive research coverage or support in the market for our shares will have an adverse effect on our ability to develop a liquid market for our Common Stock. The occurrence of any such event could cause our business or stock price to suffer.

 

Being a public company is expensive and administratively burdensome.

 

The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, interim reports and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders are much greater than those of a privately-held company, and compliance with these rules and regulations may require us to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel, and will involve a material increase in regulatory, legal and accounting expenses and the attention of management. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the applicable regulations in a timely manner, if at all. In addition, being a public company makes it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. In the future, we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain this coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified executives and members of our board of directors.

 

We are a smaller reporting company, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies will make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are currently a “smaller reporting company”, meaning that we are not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer, or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company and have a public float of less than $75 million and annual revenues of less than $50 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. However, similar to “emerging growth companies” under the JOBS Act, “smaller reporting companies” are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings; are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting; and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, only being required to provide two years of audited financial statements in annual reports and in a registration statement under the Exchange Act on Form 10. Decreased disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as a “smaller reporting company” may make it harder for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects.

We do not have a class of our securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Until we do, or we become subject to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, we will be a “voluntary filer.”

 

We are not currently required under Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act to file periodic reports with the SEC. We have in the past voluntarily elected to file some or all of these reports to ensure that sufficient information about us and our operations is publicly available to our stockholders and potential investors. Until we become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, we are a “voluntary filer” and we are currently considered a non-reporting issuer under the Exchange Act. We will not be required to file reports under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act until the earlier to occur of: (i) our registration of a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, which would be required if we list a class of securities on a national securities exchange or if we meet the size requirements set forth in Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, or which we may voluntarily elect to undertake at an earlier date; or (ii) the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to our Common Stock. Until we become subject to the reporting requirements under either Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, we are not subject to the SEC’s proxy rules, and large holders of our capital stock will not be subject to beneficial ownership reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 16 of the Exchange Act and their related rules. As a result, our stockholders and potential investors may not have available to them as much or as robust information as they may have if and when we become subject to those requirements. In addition, if we do not register under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and remain a “voluntary filer”, we could cease filing annual, quarterly or current reports under the Exchange Act.

 

Shares of our Common Stock that have not been registered under federal securities laws are subject to resale restrictions imposed by Rule 144, including those set forth in Rule 144(i) which apply to a former “shell company.”

 

Prior to the closing of the Merger, we were deemed a “shell company” under applicable SEC rules and regulations because we had no or nominal operations and either no or nominal assets, assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. Pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, sales of the securities of a former shell company, such as us, under that rule are not permitted (i) until at least 12 months have elapsed from the date on which our Current Report on Form 8-K reflecting our status as a non-shell company, was filed with the SEC; (ii) unless at the time of a proposed sale, we are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months, other than Form 8-K reports; or (iii) until the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to our Common Stock. We are currently a “voluntary filer,” and upon effectiveness of a registration statement, or upon our becoming subject to the reporting rules under the Exchange Act, we will not be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Therefore, unless we register such shares of Common Stock for sale under the Securities Act, most of our stockholders will be forced to hold their shares of our Common Stock for at least that 12-month period before they are eligible to sell those shares, and even after that month period, sales may not be made under Rule 144 unless we and the selling stockholders are in compliance with other requirements of Rule 144. Further, it will be more difficult for us to raise funding to support our operations through the sale of debt or equity securities unless we agree to register such securities under the Securities Act, which could cause us to expend significant time and cash resources. Additionally, our previous status as a shell company could also limit our use of our securities to pay for any acquisitions we may seek to pursue in the future (although none are currently planned). The lack of liquidity of our securities as a result of the inability to sell under Rule 144 for a longer period of time than a non- former shell company could cause the market price of our securities to decline.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the related notes thereto contained in this Report. The management’s discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. When used, the words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect” and the like, and/or future tense or conditional constructions (“will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” etc.), or similar expressions, identify certain of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those under “Risk Factors” in this Report that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

 

On September 14, 2018, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Jacksam Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2018, or the Acquisition Sub, merged with Jacksam Corporation, a corporation incorporated in August 2013 in the State of Delaware, referred to herein as Jacksam. Pursuant to this transaction, or the Merger, Acquisition Sub was the surviving corporation and became our wholly-owned subsidiary. All of the outstanding capital stock of Jacksam was converted into shares of our Common Stock, as described in more detail under Item 2.01, above.

 

Prior to the Merger, we were dormant company without any active operations. As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of Jacksam and will continue the existing business operations of Jacksam as our wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

As the result of the Merger and the change in business and operations of the Company, a discussion of the past financial results of the Company is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles the historical financial results of Jacksam, the accounting acquirer, prior to the Merger are considered the historical financial results of the Company.

 

The following discussion highlights Jacksam’s results of operations and the principal factors that have affected our financial condition as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described, and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on Jacksam’s audited and unaudited financial statements contained in this Report, which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such financial statements and the related notes thereto.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The audited consolidated financial statements of Jacksam for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Jacksam for six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 contained herein include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such unaudited interim periods have been included in these unaudited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Components of Statements of Operations

 

Revenue

 

Product revenue consists of sales of consumer vaporizers and of the 710 Shark filling machine, 710 Shark Captain capping machine, Cove cartridges, accessories, warranty, service and freight charges, net of returns, discounts and allowances. Once a sales order is negotiated and received by a sales representative we generally collect a 30% deposit from the customer. When the product is ready to be shipped, the customer will generally pay the remaining balance. We recognize the revenue upon down payment.

 

For the 710 Shark filling machine and 710 Captain capping machine, training is coordinated with the customers in accordance with their availability but generally completed within a week or two of the shipment. Standard warranties are offered at no cost to customers to cover parts (3 years), labor and maintenance for one year for product defects.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Product cost of revenue primarily consists of the cost of materials, labor and overhead associated with the manufacture both our vaporizers and both 710 Shark filling machine and 710 Captain capping machine.

 

We expect our cost of revenue per unit to decrease as we continue to scale our operations, improve product designs and work with our third-party suppliers to lower costs.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and Marketing . Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel, employee benefits and travel associated with our direct sales force, project managers and sales management. Sales and marketing expenses also include costs associated with our support of business development efforts with distributors and partners and costs related to trade shows and marketing program. We expense sales and marketing costs as incurred. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods as we expand our sales force and our marketing organization and increase our participation in global trade shows and marketing programs, including consumer marketing.

 

General and Administrative . Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel, employee benefits and travel. In addition, general and administrative expenses include, third- party consulting, legal, audit, accounting services, and allocations of overhead costs, such as rent, facilities and information technology. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars following the consummation of the Merger due to additional legal, accounting, insurance, investor relations and other costs associated with being a public company, as well as other costs associated with growing our business.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income consists primarily of interest income received on our cash and cash equivalents.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense consists primarily of interest from Kabbage loans and notes due to debtholders.

Results of Operations

 

The following set forth our results of operations for the periods presented:

 

Revenue

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017

 

Total revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased to $3,352,227 compared to the six months period ended June 30, 2017 which produced sales of $850,857. Sales of growth of $2,501,370 or 391% was primarily driven by the increased sales of the Shark 710 filling machines, 710 capping machines and sales of proprietary cartridges.

 

Total cost of revenue increased $1,723,969 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 which had costs of revenues of $388,469. The decrease in gross margin percentage from 54% to 36% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to the increase in sales of lower margin cartridge products.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales, Marketing and General and Administrative. Sales, Marketing and General and Administrative during the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased to $1,588,165 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 which produced $521,585 in expenses. The $1,066,580 increase was primarily attributed to increased employee count and hiring an outsourced marketing agency.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $18,621 due to new debt assumed.

 

Years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016

 

Total revenue during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 were $1,569,456 compared to $750,535 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. Sales of growth of $818,921 or 109% was primarily driven by the increased sales of the Shark 710 filling machines. Sales increases primarily occurred in California and Nevada.

 

Cost of Revenue/Gross Margin

 

Total cost of revenue was $1,248,919 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 compared to $539,200 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in gross margin percentage from 23% to 20% for was primarily attributable to the mix of product sales and discounts given to customers buying multiple Shark 710 Filling systems.

 

We currently expect that cost of revenue on current orders will show improvements from historic costs due to increased pricing, cost improvements from R&D, and increasing our production efficiencies.

Operating Expenses

 

Sales, Marketing and General and Administrative. Sales and marketing and General and Administrative were $1,025,982 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 compared to $607,180 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The increase of $418,802 was primarily attributed to increased employee count and costs associated with the company’s new facility.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 was $74,982 compared to $91,248 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The decrease of $16,266 was due to lower interest rates from alternative lending sources.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since Jacksam’s inception in 2013 as a Delaware corporation, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2018, we had net losses of $108,438 and $415,238, respectively. At June 30, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $2,994,862.

 

At June 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,620,776. To date, we have financed our operations principally through borrowing on credit facilities, debt of $594,000, issuance of equity of $457,500, issuances of Convertible Debt of $3,813,500 and receipts of customer deposits for new orders and payments from customers for Shark 710 machines, 710 Captain capping machines and cartridges.

 

The only capital commitment that Jacksam has currently is the lease at 30191 Avenida de las Banderas in Rancho Santa Margarita, California for $51,600 annually through April of 2020.

 

We anticipate that we will not need any additional financing to continue as an ongoing entity over the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

 

Operating Activities

 

We have historically experienced negative cash outflows as we developed and sold our 710 Shark Filling machines, 710 Captain Capping machines, and cartridges, pens and accessories. Our net cash used in operating activities primarily results from our operating losses combined with changes in working capital components as we have grown our business and is influenced by the timing of cash payments for inventory purchases and cash receipts from our customers. Our primary source of cash flow from operating activities is cash down payments and final payments for our machines. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are employee-related expenditures and amounts due to vendors for purchased components. Our cash flows from operating activities will continue to be affected principally by our working capital requirements and the extent to which we build up our inventory balances and increase spending on personnel and other operating activities as our business grows.

 

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, operating activities used $578,515 in cash, an increase of $157,557 from cash used in the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 of $420,958.

Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities was less than $(6,423) and $1,082 for the both the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 respectively.

 

Financing Activities

 

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, $1,731,312 of cash provided by financing activities was from the issuance of convertible debt and the issuance of equity from Company’s investors. The Company also made $102,189 of payments to pay down notes payable and $110,000 million payment to repurchase common stock.

 

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, $798,451 of cash provided by financing activities was from the issuance of convertible debt and notes payable. The company also made $383,967 in payments to pay down notes payable and convertible debt.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by applicable SEC regulations.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules, shares of our Common Stock which may be acquired upon exercise of stock options or warrants which are currently exercisable or which become exercisable within 60 days of the date of the applicable table below are deemed beneficially owned by the holders of such options and warrants and are deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of any other person.

 

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock outstanding, immediately after giving effect to the Merger. The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of September 14, 2018 (the “Determination Date”), by (i) each stockholder known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Common Stock (our only classes of voting securities), (ii) each of our directors and executive officers, and (iii) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. To the best of our knowledge, except as otherwise indicated, each of the persons named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by such person, except to the extent such power may be shared with a spouse. To our knowledge, none of the shares listed below are held under a voting trust or similar agreement, except as noted. Other than the Merger, to our knowledge, there is no arrangement, including any pledge by any person of our securities or any of our parents, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company.

 

Unless otherwise indicated in the following table, the address for each person named in the table is c/o Jacksam Corporation, 30191 Avenida de Las Banderas, Rancho Santa Margarita Ste . B , California 92688.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

We have not adopted a code of business conduct and ethics at this time.

 

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters

 

Our articles of incorporation contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

 

Our articles of incorporation further provide that that we are obligated to advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his, her or its actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him, her or it under Nevada law.

 

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our articles of incorporation and may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. A stockholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. There is no pending litigation or proceeding naming any of our directors, officers or employees as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer or employee.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

Summary Compensation Table

 

This discussion contains forward looking statements that are based on our current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation programs. Actual compensation programs that we adopt may differ materially from currently planned programs as summarized in this discussion. As an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act and a smaller reporting company we are not required to include a Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and have elected to comply with the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies.

 

The following table provides information regarding the total compensation for services rendered in all capacities that was earned by each individual who served as our principal executive officer at any time in 2016 or 2017, and our two other most highly compensated executive officers who were serving as executive officers as of December 31, 2017.

Executive Officer Employment Agreements

 

Mark Adams

 

We entered into a five-year employment agreement on December 22, 2017, with Mr. Adams to serve as the Chief Operating Officer of Jacksam in exchange for a base salary of $120,000 per annum, which shall automatically increase at a rate of five percent per year, in addition to any increases that our board, in its discretion, may determine is appropriate. In addition, Mr. Adams is eligible for a performance bonus of up to thirty percent of his then-applicable annual salary, as determined by our board in its good faith discretion. Mr. Adams’ employment agreement also provides that Jacksam is to provide Mr. Adams with a grant of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Jacksam common stock at an undetermined exercise price, to vest over three years, upon Jacksam adopting an equity compensation plan. Jacksam has not adopted such a stock option plan and the options Jacksam is obligated to grant to Mr. Adams have not been granted and, as a result of the Merger, will not be granted. We are in the process of renegotiating this term with Mr. Adams. Mr. Adams is also entitled to health insurance and other benefits if and to the extent provided by Jacksam to other executives.

If we terminate Mr. Adams for cause, or if he resigns for good reason (both as defined in Mr. Adams employment agreement), we owe Mr. Adams his salary and benefits for a period of twelve months following his termination. If he dies, we owe Mr. Adams’ estate six months salary.

 

Mr. Adams was promoted to our Chief Executive Officer on April 10, 2018, by our board, following the decision by Mr. Davis to step down from that office.

 

Daniel Davis

 

We entered into a five-year employment agreement on December 22, 2017, with Mr. Davis to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Jacksam in exchange for a base salary of $180,000 per annum, which shall automatically increase at a rate of five percent per year, in addition to any increases that our board, in its discretion, may determine is appropriate. In addition, Mr. Davis is eligible for a performance bonus of up to thirty percent of his then-applicable annual salary, as determined by our board in its good faith discretion. Mr. Davis’ employment agreement also provides that Jacksam is to provide Mr. Davis with a grant of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Jacksam common stock at an undetermined exercise price, to vest over three years, upon Jacksam adopting an equity compensation plan. Jacksam has not adopted such a stock option plan and the options Jacksam is obligated to grant to Mr. Davis have not been granted and, as a result of the Merger, will not be granted. We are in the process of renegotiating this term with Mr. Davis. Mr. Davis is also entitled to health insurance and other benefits if and to the extent provided by Jacksam to other executives.

 

If we terminate Mr. Davis for cause, or if he resigns for good reason (both as defined in Mr. Davis employment agreement), we owe Mr. Davis his salary and benefits for a period of twelve months following his termination. If he dies, we owe Mr. Davis’ estate six months salary.

 

Mr. Davis stepped down as our Chief Executive Officer on April 10, 2018, but remains employed in charge of new product development on the same terms and conditions as are contained in his employment agreement.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

The descriptions set forth above under the captions “The Merger and Related Transactions—Merger Agreement,” and “Executive Compensation—Employment Agreements” and “— Director Compensation” are incorporated herein by reference.

 

There have been no transactions since January 1, 2017 to which we have been a party, in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $50,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of Jacksam’s pre-Merger capital stock, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than compensation and other arrangements that are described in the section titled “Executive Compensation.”

MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol “CNGD.”

 

There has been very limited trading of our Common Stock to date, and an active trading market may never develop.

 

As of the date of this Report, we have 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock outstanding held by 138 stockholders of record.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings to fund ongoing operations and future capital requirements. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent upon financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and such other factors as the board of directors deems relevant.

 

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

 

Prior to the Merger, there has been a limited public market for our Common Stock. Future sales of our Common Stock, including shares issued upon conversion or the exercise of outstanding convertible securities, in the public market after the Merger, or the perception that those sales may occur, could cause the prevailing price for our Common Stock to fall or impair our ability to raise equity capital in the future. As described below, only a limited number of shares of our Common Stock will be available for sale in the public market for a period of several months after consummation of the Merger due to contractual and legal restrictions on resale described below. Future sales of our Common Stock in the public market either before (to the extent permitted) or after restrictions lapse, or the perception that those sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing price of our Common Stock at such time and our ability to raise equity capital at a time and price we deem appropriate.

 

Upon the completion of the Merger, we had 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock outstanding, of which our directors and executive officers beneficially own an aggregate of 34,033,596 shares. Of those outstanding shares, 70,278 shares of our Common Stock are freely tradeable, without restriction, other than lock-up agreements as described below, as of the date of this Report. No shares issued in connection with the Merger and the Offering can be publicly sold under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act until 12 months after the date of filing this Report.

 

Sale of Restricted Shares

 

Of the approximately 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock outstanding upon completion of the Merger, approximately 48,202,033 shares of Common Stock will be “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144. These restricted securities were issued and sold by us, or will be issued and sold by us, in private transactions and are eligible for public sale only if registered under the Securities Act or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

Table of Contents

 

Rule 144

 

Pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, sales of the securities of a former shell company, such as us, under that rule are not permitted (i) until at least 12 months have elapsed from the date on which this Report, reflecting our status as a non-shell company, is filed with the SEC and (ii) unless at the time of a proposed sale, we are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months, other than Form 8-K reports. As a result, unless we register such shares for sale under the Securities Act, most of our stockholders will be forced to hold their shares of our Common Stock for at least that 12-month period before they are eligible to sell those shares, and even after that 12-month period, sales may not be made under Rule 144 unless we and the selling stockholders are in compliance with other requirements of Rule 144.

 

In general, Rule 144 provides that (i) any of our non-affiliates that has held restricted common stock for at least 12 months is thereafter entitled to sell its restricted stock freely and without restriction, provided that we remain compliant and current with our SEC reporting obligations, and (ii) any of our affiliates, which includes our directors, executive officers and other person in control of us, that has held restricted common stock for at least 12 months is thereafter entitled to sell its restricted stock subject to the following restrictions: (a) we are compliant and current with our SEC reporting obligations, (b) certain manner of sale provisions are satisfied, (c) a Form 144 is filed with the SEC, and (d) certain volume limitations are satisfied, which limit the sale of shares within any three-month period to a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the total number of outstanding shares. A person who has ceased to be an affiliate at least three months immediately preceding the sale and who has owned such shares of common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell the shares under Rule 144 without regard to any of the limitations described above.

 

Rule 701

 

In general, under Rule 701 as currently in effect, any of our employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors who acquired Common Stock from us in connection with a written compensatory stock or option plan or other written agreement, in compliance with Rule 701 under the Securities Act, before the effective date of the Merger (to the extent such Common Stock is not subject to a lock-up agreement) is entitled to rely on Rule 701 to resell such shares beginning 90 days after we become subject to the public company reporting requirements of the Exchange Act in reliance on Rule 144, but without compliance with the holding period requirements contained in Rule 144. Accordingly, subject to any applicable lock-up agreements, beginning 90 days after we become subject to the public company reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, under Rule 701 persons who are not our “affiliates,” as defined in Rule 144, may resell those shares without complying with the minimum holding period or public information requirements of Rule 144, and persons who are our “affiliates” may resell those shares without compliance with Rule 144’s minimum holding period requirements (subject to the terms of the lock-up agreement referred to above, if applicable).

 

Registration Rights and Lock-Up and Leak Out Agreement

 

The description of the registration rights held by the holders of our 2017 Debentures and 2018 Notes, and upon the exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant, together with the limitations on the sales of our Common Stock by the holders of our 2017 Debentures are described in Item 2.01, above, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Table of Contents

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 90 million shares of Common Stock and 10 million shares of preferred stock. As of the date of this Report and as a result of the Merger, we had 48,272,311 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

Voting Rights

 

Each holder of our Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.

 

Dividends

 

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. We do not have any plans to pay dividends to our stockholders.

 

Liquidation

 

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

Rights and Preferences

 

Holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our Common Stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our Common Stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future.

 

Fully Paid and Nonassessable

 

All of our outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the 2017 Debentures or the 2018 Notes, or upon exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant, will be fully paid and nonassessable.

 

 
44
 
Table of Contents

 

Preferred Stock

 

Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which will have such distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by our board of directors prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. Our board of directors may designate the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights, liquidation preference, sinking fund terms, and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of any series. The number of authorized shares of preferred stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all the then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors, voting together as a single class, without a separate vote of the holders of the preferred stock, or any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to any preferred stock designation. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of restricting dividends on our Common Stock, diluting the voting power of our Common Stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our Common Stock, or delaying, deterring, or preventing a change in control. Such issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our Common Stock. We currently have no plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

 

Warrants

 

As of the date of this Report, the Altar Rock Warrant entitles its holder, Altar Rock Capital, to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share any time prior to December 2, 2020; provided, however, provided, however, that the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable to the holder of the Altar Rock Warrant may not, in any instance, exceed 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding Common Stock.

 

Registration Rights

 

The description of the registration rights held by the holders of our 2017 Debentures and 2018 Notes, and upon exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant, together with the limitations on the sales of our Common Stock by the holders of our 2017 Debentures are described in Item 2.01, above, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Transfer Agent

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Action Stock Transfer Corp. The transfer agent and registrar’s address is 2469 E. Fort Union Blvd., Suite 214, Salt Lake City, UT 84121 and its telephone number is (801) 274-1088.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are currently not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject, nor are we aware of any such proceedings that are contemplated by any governmental authority. From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

The information set forth in Item 2.01, above, is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Shares Issued in Connection with the Merger

 

On September 14, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all of the shares of common stock of Jacksam were exchanged for 45,000,000 shares of our Common Stock and rights to purchase, by conversion of the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes, and by exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant up to 15,384,167 additional shares of our Common Stock. This transaction was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder as not involving any public offering. None of the securities were sold through an underwriter and, accordingly, there were no underwriting discounts or commissions involved.

ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

 

On September 14, 2018, Fruci & Associates II, PLLC, or Fruci, was dismissed as our independent registered public accounting firm. On the same date, L&L CPAs, PA, or L&L, was engaged as our new independent registered public accounting firm. The board of directors of the Company approved the dismissal of Fruci and approved the engagement of L&L as our independent registered public accounting firm.

 

None of the reports of Fruci on our financial statements for either of the past two years or subsequent interim period contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that our audited financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, filed with the SEC, included a going concern qualification in the report of Fruci.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and the subsequent interim periods preceding their dismissal, there were no disagreements with Fruci, whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Fruci, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company provided Fruci with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Report and has requested that Fruci furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether they agree with the above statements. The letter is filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K. During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim periods preceding the engagement, and through the date of this Report, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has previously consulted with L&L regarding either (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report was provided nor oral advice was provided to the Company that v concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (b) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v)) of

Regulation S-K).

Effective September 14, 2018, our board of directors approved a change to the our fiscal year end from September 30, which was used in our most recent filing with the SEC, to December 31 of each year, which is the fiscal year of Jacksam.

 

ITEM 5.06 CHANGE IN SHELL COMPANY STATUS

 

Prior to the Merger, we were a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act). As a result of the Merger, we have ceased to be a shell company. The information contained in this Report, together with the information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, and our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC, constitute the current “Form 10 information” necessary to satisfy the conditions contained in Rule 144(i)(2) under the Securities Act.

Section 9.3 Time Limitations . Neither Parent nor Acquisition Corp. 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 Acquisition Corp. to the Company Indemnified Parties set forth in Section 9.1 shall be subject to the following limitations:

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.

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 11.15 Dispute Resolution .

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 Las Vegas, Nevada 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.

(e) Consideration for Shares. The Common Stock authorized by this Article shall be issued for such consideration as shall be fixed, from time to time, by the board of directors.

 

Section 3. Preferred Stock.

 

(a) Designation. The board of directors is hereby vested with the authority from time to time to provide by resolution for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series not exceeding the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized by these Articles, and to prescribe with respect to each such series the voting powers, if any, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions relating thereto, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: the voting rights relating to the shares of Preferred Stock of any series (which voting rights, if any, may be full or limited, may vary over time, and may be applicable generally or only upon any stated fact or event); the rate of dividends (which may be cumulative or noncumulative), the condition or time for payment of dividends and the preference or relation of such dividends to dividends payable on any other class or series of capital stock; the rights of holders of Preferred Stock of any series in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation; the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock of any series to convert or exchange such shares of Preferred Stock of such series for shares of any other class or series of capital stock or for any other securities, property, or assets of the Corporation or any subsidiary (including the determination of the price or prices or the rate or rates applicable to such rights to convert or exchange and the adjustment thereof, the time or times during which the right to convert or exchange shall be applicable, and the time or times during which a particular price or rate shall be applicable); whether the shares of any series of Preferred Stock shall be subject to redemption by the Corporation and if subject to redemption, the times, prices, rates, adjustments and other terms and conditions of such redemption. The powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights may be made dependent upon any fact or event which may be ascertained outside the Articles or the resolution if the manner in which the fact or event may operate on such series is stated in the Articles or resolution. As used in this section “fact or event” includes, without limitation, the existence of a fact or occurrence of an event, including, without limitation, a determination or action by a person, government, governmental agency or political subdivision of a government. The board of directors is further authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of such shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series. Unless the board of directors provides to the contrary in the resolution which fixes the characteristics of a series of Preferred Stock, neither the consent by series, or otherwise, of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock nor the consent of the holders of any outstanding Common Stock shall be required for the issuance of any new series of Preferred Stock regardless of whether the rights and preferences of the new series of Preferred Stock are senior or superior, in any way, to the outstanding series of Preferred Stock or the Common Stock.

(b) Certificate.

(b) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be: (A) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (B) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (C) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder. For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the sixtieth (60th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year’s proxy statement, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not earlier than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the sixtieth (60th) day prior to such annual meeting or, in the event public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made by the corporation fewer than seventy (70) days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the corporation. A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation’s books, of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business and (v) any other information that is required to be provided by the stockholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), in his capacity as a proponent to a stockholder proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to include information with respect to a stockholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a stockholder’s meeting, stockholders must provide notice as required by the regulations promulgated under the 1934 Act. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (b). The chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (b), and, if he should so determine, he shall so declare at the meeting that any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

 

(c) Only persons who are confirmed in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (c) shall be eligible for election as directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation may be made at a meeting of stockholders by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or by any stockholder of the corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this paragraph (c). Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the corporation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section 5. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (i) as to each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director: (A) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person, (B) the principal occupation or employment of such person, (c) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by such person, (D) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nominations are to be made by the stockholder, and (E) any other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the 1934 Act (including without limitation such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement, if any, as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and (ii) as to such stockholder giving notice, the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 5. At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by a stockholder for election as a director shall furnish to the Secretary of the corporation that information required to be set forth in the stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (c).

Section 6. Special Meetings.

 

(a) Special meetings of the stockholders of the corporation may be called, for any purpose or purposes, by (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chief Executive Officer, or (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption), and shall be held at such place, on such date, and at such time, as the Board of Directors shall determine.

 

(b) If a special meeting is called by any person or persons other than the Board of Directors, the request shall be in writing, specifying the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by tele-graphic or other facsimile transmission to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Secretary of the corporation. No business may be transacted at such special meeting otherwise than specified in such notice. The Board of Directors shall determine the time and place of such special meeting, which shall be held not less than thirty-five (35) nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the receipt of the request. Upon determination of the time and place of the meeting, the officer receiving the request shall cause notice to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of these Bylaws. If the notice is not given within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request, the person or persons requesting the meeting may set the time and place of the meeting and give the notice. Nothing contained in this paragraph (b) shall be construed as limiting, fixing, or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the Board of Directors may be held.

 

Section 7. Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by law or the Articles of Incorporation, written notice of each meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, such notice to specify the place, date and hour and purpose or purposes of the meeting. Notice of the time, place and purpose of any meeting of stockholders may be waived in writing, signed by the person entitled to notice thereof, either before or after such meeting, and will be waived by any stockholder by his attendance thereat in person or by proxy, except when the stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Any stockholder so waiving notice of such meeting shall be bound by the proceedings of any such meeting in all respects as if due notice thereof had been given.

 

Section 8. Quorum. At all meetings of stockholders, except where otherwise provided by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy duly authorized, of the holder or holders of not less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned, from time to time, either by the chairman of the meeting or by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented thereat, but no other business shall be transacted at such meeting. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, all action taken by the holders of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions, at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be valid and binding upon the corporation; provided, however, that directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Where a separate vote by a class or classes or series is required, except where otherwise provided by the statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter and, except where otherwise provided by the statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the majority (plurality, in the case of the election of directors) of the votes cast, including abstentions, by the holders of shares of such class or classes or series shall be the act of such class or classes or series.

Section 9. Adjournment and Notice of Adjourned Meetings. Any meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time either by the chairman of the meeting or by the vote of a majority of the shares casting votes, excluding abstentions. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

Section 10. Voting Rights. For the purpose of determining those stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, only persons in whose names shares stand on the stock records of the corporation on the record date, as provided in Section 12 of these Bylaws, shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Every person entitled to vote shall have the right to do so either in person or by an agent or agents authorized by a proxy granted in accordance with Nevada law. An agent so appointed need not be a stockholder. No proxy shall be voted after three (3) years from its date of creation unless the proxy provides for a longer period.

 

Section 11. Joint Owners of Stock. If shares or other securities having voting power stand of record in the names of two (2) or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety, or otherwise, or if two (2) or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect: (a) if only one (1) votes, his act binds all; (b) if more than one (1) votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all; (c) if more than one (1) votes, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionally. If the instrument filed with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the purpose of subsection (c) shall be a majority or even-split in interest.

 

Section 12. List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

 

Section 13. Action Without Meeting. No action shall be taken by the stockholders except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with these Bylaws, or by the written consent of the stockholders setting forth the action so taken and signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote upon were present and voted.

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 43. Indemnification of Directors, Executive Officers, Other Officers, Employees and Other Agents.

 

(a) Directors and Officers. The corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by N.R.S. Chapter 78; provided, however, that the corporation may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with its directors and officers; and, provided, further, that the corporation shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation, (iii) such indemnification is provided by the corporation, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the corporation under N.R.S. Chapter 78 or (iv) such indemnification is required to be made under subsection (d).

 

(b) Employees and Other Agents. The corporation shall have power to indemnify its employees and other agents as set forth in N.R.S. Chapter 78.

 

 
13
 
 

 

(c) Expense. The corporation shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or executive officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said mounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Bylaw or otherwise.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Bylaw, no advance shall be made by the corporation to an officer of the corporation (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

 

(d) Enforcement. Without the necessity of entering into an express contract, all rights to indemnification and advances to directors and officers under this Bylaw shall be deemed to be contractual rights and be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the corporation and the director or officer. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this Bylaw to a director or officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person holding such right in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting his claim. In connection with any claim for indemnification, the corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct that make it permissible under N.R.S. Chapter 78 for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. In connection with any claim by an officer of the corporation (except in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation) for advances, the corporation shall be entitled to raise a defense as to any such action clear and convincing evidence that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed in the best interests of the corporation, or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding that such person acted without reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in N.R.S. Chapter 78, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by a director or officer to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article XI or otherwise shall be on the corporation.

 

(e) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Bylaw shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by N.R.S. Chapter 78.

 

 
14
 
 

 

(f) Survival of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Bylaw shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

 

(g) Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by N.R.S. Chapter 78, the corporation, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this Bylaw.

 

(h) Amendments. Any repeal or modification of this Bylaw shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights under this Bylaw in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the corporation.

 

(i) Saving Clause. If this Bylaw or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer to the full extent not prohibited by any applicable portion of this Bylaw that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law.

 

(j) Certain Definitions. For the purposes of this Bylaw, the following definitions shall apply:

 

(i) The term “proceeding” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, the investigation, preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, arbitration and appeal of, and the giving of testimony in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative.

(iv) References to a “director,” “executive officer,” “officer,” “employee,” or “agent” of the corporation shall include, without limitation, situations where such person is serving at the request of the corporation as, respectively, a director, executive officer, officer, employee, trustee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

 

(v) References to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this Bylaw.

Nothing contained in this Article 2 shall limit the amount the Holder can elect to convert during a calendar month except as defined in Section 3.2 (i) hereof.

Article 3 Conversion .

 

Section 3.1 Conversion Privilege .

 

(a) The Holder of this Debenture shall have the right to convert (a “ Conversion ”) any and all amounts owing under this Debenture into shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.00001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), at any time following the Closing Date (as such term is defined in that certain Debenture Registration Rights Agreement, of even date herewith, by and between the Company and the Holder (the “ Debenture Registration Rights Agreement ”)) but which is before the close of business on the Maturity Date, except as set forth in Section 3.2(c) hereof. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the Conversion of this Debenture is determined pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof and rounding the result up to the nearest whole share.

 

(b) This Debenture may not be converted, whether in whole or in part, except in accordance with this Article 3 .

 

(c) In the event all or any portion of this Debenture remains outstanding on the Maturity Date, the unconverted portion of such Debenture shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock on such date in the manner set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.

 

Section 3.2 Conversion Procedure .

 

(a) Conversion Procedures . In addition to the Holder’s right to convert this Debenture as provided in Section 2.1 above, the Holder may elect to convert the unpaid Face Amount of this Debenture, in whole or in part, at any time following the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event any Conversion occurs prior to the Effective Date, the Conversion Shares shall be subject to applicable transferability restrictions as provided under the federal securities laws, including Rule 144. Any such Conversion shall be effectuated by the Holder sending to the Company a facsimile or electronic mail version of the signed Notice of Conversion, attached hereto as Exhibit A , which evidences the Holder’s intention to convert the Debenture as indicated. The date on which the Notice of Conversion is delivered (the “ Conversion Date ”) shall be deemed to be the date on which the Holder has delivered to the Company a facsimile or electronic mail of the signed Notice of Conversion. Notwithstanding the above, any Notice of Conversion received after 5:00 P.M. Boston Time shall be deemed to have been received the next business day, with receipt being via a confirmation of time of facsimile or electronic mail of the Holder.

(b) Common Stock to be Issued . Upon the Holder’s Conversion of any amount of this Debenture, the Company shall issue the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion. If, at the time of Conversion, the Registration Statement has been declared effective, the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to issue stock certificates without restrictive legend (other than a legend referring to such Registration Statement and prospectus delivery requirements) or stop transfer instructions. If, at the time of the Holder’s Conversion, the Registration Statement has not been declared effective, the Company shall instruct the transfer agent to issue the certificates with an appropriate legend. The Company shall act as Registrar and shall maintain an appropriate ledger containing the necessary information with respect to this Debenture. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that no instructions, other than these instructions, have been given or will be given to the transfer agent and that the Common Stock shall otherwise be freely resold, except as may be otherwise set forth herein provided however they are sold pursuant to the Leak Out Agreement between Holder and the Company of even date herewith.

 

(c) Conversion Price . The Holder is entitled to convert the unpaid Face Amount of this Debenture, any time following a Closing Date, at twenty cents ($0.20) per share. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued upon Conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded up, in the event of a partial share, to the nearest whole share. The Holder shall retain all rights of Conversion during any partial trading days.

 

(d) Maximum Interest . Nothing contained in this Debenture shall be deemed to establish or require the Company to pay interest to the Holder at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest required to be paid exceeds the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, the rate of interest required to be paid thereunder shall be automatically reduced to the maximum rate permitted under applicable law and such excess, if so ordered, shall be credited on any remaining balances due to the Holder. In the event that the interest rate on this Debenture is required to be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.2(d) , then the parties hereto agree that the terms of this Debenture shall remain in full force and effect except as is necessary to make the interest rate comply with applicable law.

 

(e) Opinion Letter . It shall be the Company’s responsibility to take all necessary actions and to bear all such costs (any and all costs associated with the deposit of shares but not the cost of trading commissions) to issue the Common Stock as provided herein, including the responsibility and cost for delivery of an opinion letter to the transfer agent, if so required. The person or entity in whose name the certificate of Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record on and after the Conversion Date. Upon surrender of any Debentures that are to be converted in part, the Company shall issue to the Holder a new Debenture equal to the unconverted amount. The Company hereby acknowledges that the date of consideration for this Debenture is the Issuance Date and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate sales under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

(f) Delivery of Shares .

 

(i) Within three (3) business days after receipt of the Notice of Conversion (the “ Delivery Deadline ”), the Company shall deliver a certificate, in accordance with Section 3.2(c) hereof for the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Conversion. In the event the Company does not make delivery of said certificate by the Delivery Deadline, the Company shall pay to Holder in cash, as liquidated damages, an additional fee per day equal to three percent (3%) of the dollar value of the Debentures being converted (the “Delivery Penalty”); provided, however, that the Delivery Penalty shall not be assessed against the Company in the event that the delay in delivery of the Holder’s certificate beyond the Delivery Deadline is not due to the Company’s actions. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock and provided that the Company’s transfer agent then is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Securities by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker (as specified by the Holder within a reasonable period in advance of the Holder’s notice) with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system. If the Company is not DWAC eligible at the time of a Conversion, the Company shall pay all charges incurred on each Conversion Date associated with, but not limited to, deposit costs, legal review fees and wire fees.

 

(ii) If the failure of the Company to deliver the Common Stock pursuant to this Article 3.2(f) is due to the unavailability of a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company, then the provisions of this Article 3.2(f) shall apply as well as the provisions of Article 3.2(k) hereof shall apply.

 

(iii) The Company shall make any payments required under this Article 3.2 (f) in immediately available funds for any defaults under 3.2 (f) within two (2) business days of curing such default. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right, at the Holder’s sole discretion, to pursue actual damages or cancel the conversion for the Company’s failure to issue and deliver the certificate by the Certificate Deadline.

 

(iv) The Company shall at all times reserve (or make alternative written arrangements for reservation or contribution of shares) and have available all Common Stock necessary to meet Conversion of the full amount of the Debentures then outstanding and due to the Holder, unless so waived by the Holder in writing. If, at any time, the Holder submits a Notice of Conversion and the Company does not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or alternative shares of Common Stock as may be contributed by Stockholders) available to effect, in full, a Conversion of the Debentures (a “ Conversion Default ”, the date of such default being referred to herein as the “ Conversion Default Date ”), the Company shall issue to the Holder all of the shares of Common Stock which are then currently available.

 

(v) In the event of Conversion Default, the Company will pay to the Holder an amount computed as follows (the “ Conversion Default Rate ”):

 

(N / 365) x (0.24) x (initial issuance price of outstanding and/or tendered but not converted Debentures held by the Holder)

 

 
4
 
 

 

Where N is equal to the number of days from the Conversion Default Date to the date that the Company authorizes a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to effect conversion of all remaining Debentures (the “ Authorization Date ”).

 

(vi) The Company shall send notice to Holder of outstanding Debenture that additional shares of Common Stock have been authorized, stating the Authorization Date and the amount of Holder’s accrued Conversion Default Payments (“ Authorization Notice ”). The accrued Conversion Default shall be paid in cash or shall be convertible into Common Stock at the Conversion Rate, upon written notice sent by the Holder to the Company, as follows: (i) in the event the Holder elects to take such payment in cash, cash payment shall be made to the Holder within five (5) business days, or (ii) in the event Holder elects to take such payment in stock, the Holder may convert at the Conversion Default Rate within five (5) business days until the expiration of the Conversion period.

 

(vii) [intentionally omitted]

 

(g) Prospectus and Other Documents . The Company shall furnish to the Holder one (1) prospectus and any other documents incidental to the registration of the Conversion Shares, including any amendment of or supplements thereto. Any filings submitted via EDGAR will constitute fulfillment of the Company’s obligation under this Section.

 

(h) Limitation on Issuance of Shares . If the Company’s Common Stock becomes listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market after the issuance of this Debenture, the Company may be limited in the number of shares of Common Stock it may issue by virtue of (A) the number of authorized shares or (B) the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is listed or traded, including, but not necessarily limited to, NASDAQ Rule 4310(c)(25)(H)(i) or Rule 4460(i)(1), as may be applicable (collectively, the “ Cap Regulations ”). Without limiting the other provisions thereof: (i) the Company will take all steps necessary to issue the Conversion Shares without violating the Cap Regulations, and (ii) if, despite taking such steps, the Company cannot issue such Conversion Shares without violating the Cap Regulations or the Holder cannot convert as a result of the Cap Regulations (each such Debenture, an “ Unco nverted Debenture ”) the Holder shall have the right to elect either of the following options:

 

(i) if permitted by the Cap Regulations, require the Company to issue shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Holder’s Notice of Conversion at a conversion purchase price equal to the average of the closing bid price per share of Common Stock for any five (5) consecutive Trading Days (subject to certain equitable adjustments for certain events occurring during such period) during the sixty (60) Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date; or

 

(ii) require the Company to redeem each Unconverted Debenture for an amount (the “ Redemption Amount ”), payable in cash, equal to the sum of (i) one hundred thirty-three percent (133%) of the principal of an Unconverted Debenture.

 

(iii) The Holder may elect, without limitation, one of the above remedies with respect to a portion of such Unconverted Debenture and the other remedy with respect to other portions of the Unconverted Debenture. The Unconverted Debenture shall contain provisions substantially consistent with the above terms, with such additional provisions as may be consented to by the Holder. The provisions of this Section are not intended to limit the scope of the provisions otherwise included in the Unconverted Debenture.

 

 
5
 
 

 

(i) Limitation on Amount of Conversion and Ownership . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Debenture, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert that amount of Debenture, and in no event shall the Company permit that amount of Conversion, into that number of shares, which when added to the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned, (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as may be amended, (the “ Exchange Act ”)), by the Holder, would exceed four and ninety-nine one hundredths percent (4.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Conversion Date, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the Exchange Act. In the event that the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act is different on any Conversion Date than it was on the Closing Date, then the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such Conversion Date shall govern for purposes of determining whether the Holder would be acquiring beneficial ownership of more than four and ninety-nine one hundredths percent (4.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such Conversion Date. However, nothing in this Section 3.2(i) shall be read to reduce the amount of principal, liquidated damages or penalties, if any, due to the Holder.

 

(j) Legend . The Holder acknowledges that each certificate representing the Debentures, and the Common Stock unless registered pursuant to the Debenture Registration Rights Agreement, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:

 

 

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (i) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, (ii) TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT (OR ANY SIMILAR RULE UNDER SUCH ACT RELATING TO THE DISPOSITION OF SECURITIES), OR (iii) PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.

 

 

(k) Prior to Conversion of this Debenture, if at any time the Conversion of all the Debentures would result in an insufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock being available to cover all the Conversions, then in such event, the Company will move to call and hold a shareholder’s meeting or have shareholder action with written consent of the proper number of shareholders within thirty (30) days of such event, or such greater period of time if statutorily required or reasonably necessary as regards standard brokerage house and/or SEC requirements and/or procedures, for the purpose of authorizing additional shares of Common Stock such as necessary to facilitate the Holder’s Conversions. In such an event, management of the Company shall recommend to all shareholders to vote their shares in favor of increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock. Management of the Company shall vote all of its shares of Common Stock in favor of increasing the number of shares of authorized Common Stock to an amount equal to no less than three hundred percent (300%) of the remaining balance on this Debenture. The Company represents and warrants that under no circumstances will it deny or prevent the Holder’s right to convert the Debentures as permitted under the terms of any of the Transaction Documents (as such term is defined in that certain Debenture Registration Rights Agreement, of even date herewith, by and between the Company and the Holder). Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Company to make the payments set forth in this Article 3 . The Holder, at its sole option, may request the Company to authorize and issue additional shares if the Holder feels it is necessary for Conversions in the future. In the event the Company’s shareholder’s meeting does not result in the necessary authorization, the Company shall redeem the outstanding Debentures for an amount equal to the sum of the principal of the outstanding Debentures multiplied by one hundred thirty-three percent (133%).

Section 3.3 Fractional Shares . The Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock, or scrip representing fractions of such shares, upon the conversion of this Debenture. Instead, the Company shall round up, to the nearest whole share.

 

Section 3.4 Taxes on Conversion . The Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Debenture. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the shares are issued in a name other than its name.

 

Section 3.5 Company to Reserve Stock . The Company shall reserve and maintain the number of shares of Common Stock required pursuant to and upon the terms set forth in the Transaction Documents to permit the Conversion of this Debenture.

This Debenture and the Conversion Shares may only be sold pursuant to registration under or an exemption from the Securities Act.

 

Section 3.7 Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends . If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in the case of a subdivision of shares or stock dividend, or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case, by the ratio that the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

Article 4 Mergers .

 

The Company shall not consolidate or merge into, or transfer any or all of its assets other than in connection with the contemplated transaction between Jacksam Corp. (DBA Convectium) and a “to be determined public entity” to, any person, unless such person assumes in writing the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and immediately after such transaction no Event of Default (as defined below) exists. Any reference herein to the Company shall refer to such surviving or transferee corporation and the obligations of the Company shall terminate only upon such written assumption of the Company’s obligation.

The Company shall use its Best Efforts to keep effective and current a Registration Statement while there is any outstanding balance due on the Debenture.

 

b. If the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not filed by the Filing Deadline, then the Company shall pay the Holder the sum of two percent (2%) of the Face Amount of the Debentures outstanding as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amounts payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 2 shall not be payable to the extent any delay in the filing of the Registration Statement occurs because of an act of, or a failure to act or to act timely by the Holder or is otherwise attributable to the Holder.

   

 
3
 
 

 

The liquidated damages set forth in this Section 2 shall continue until the obligation is fulfilled and shall be paid, at the Holder’s option in cash or common stock priced at the Conversion Price, or portion thereof, until the Registration Statement is filed. Failure of the Company to make payment within said three (3) business days from the Filing Deadline shall be considered a breach of this Agreement, and the Holder may elect to pursue remedies as outlined in this Section 2 .

 

The Company acknowledges that its failure to have the Registration Statement filed by the Filing Deadline will cause the Holder to suffer irreparable harm, and, that damages will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the Parties agree that it is appropriate to include in this Agreement a provision for liquidated damages. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. The payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to register the Common Stock and deliver the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Subscription Agreement and the Debenture.

 

c. The Company shall use its Best Efforts and take all available steps to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the Filing Deadline (the “Effective Deadline”). If the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof has not become effective by the Effective Deadline, then the Company shall pay the Holder the sum of one percent (1.0%) of the Face Amount of the Debentures as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty.

 

If the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof has become effective, and, thereafter, the Holder’s right to sell is suspended, for any reason, then the Company shall pay the Holder the sum of one percent (1.0%) of the Face Amount of the Debentures plus interest and penalties due to the Holder for the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Subscription Agreement for each thirty (30) calendar day period until such suspension ceases.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amounts payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 2 shall not be payable to the extent any delay in the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any suspension of the effectiveness occurs because of an act of, or a failure to act or to act timely by the Holder or is otherwise attributable to the Holder.

 

The damages set forth in this Section 2 shall continue until the obligation is fulfilled and shall be paid within thirty (30) business days. Failure of the Company to make payment within said thirty (30) business days shall be considered a default.

 

The Company acknowledges that its failure to have the Registration Statement become effective by the Effective Deadline or to permit the suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, will cause the Holder to suffer irreparable harm and, that damages will be difficult to ascertain.

   

 
4
 
 

 

d. The Company agrees to only register such securities as are necessary to meet its obligations to the Holder and agrees not to register additional securities without the Holder’s prior written consent to be agreed upon in writing by the Holder before the Filing Date. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it will not file any other Registration Statement, including those on Form S-8 or Form S-4, for other securities, until there is no balance left on the Debenture, unless it has the prior written approval from the Holder. Failure to obtain prior written approval from the Holder will cause the Holder to suffer damages that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the Parties agree that it is appropriate to include a provision for liquidated damages and the Company agrees to pay the Holder the sum of two percent (2%) of the Face Amount of the Debentures as liquidated damages and not as a penalty for each thirty (30) calendar day period, pro rata, compounded daily, until the unauthorized Registration Statement is withdrawn.

 

3. Related Obligations .

 

At such time as the Company is obligated to prepare and file a Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, the Company will use its Best Efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, with respect thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

a. The Company shall use its Best Efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the Filing Deadline and shall keep such Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act until the date on which (A) the Holder shall have sold all the Registrable Securities or the shares included therein otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities, and (B) the Holder has no right to convert the securities it owns into Common Stock under the Subscription Agreement or Debenture, respectively (the “ Registration Period ”), which Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall, as of the date thereof, not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

 

b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holder as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises (based on the then Purchase Price of the Common Stock and other relevant factors on which the Company reasonably elects to rely), assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty (30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall use it Best Efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

   

 
5
 
 

 

Prior to conversion of all the Shares (as defined in the Debenture) if at any time the conversion of all the Shares outstanding would result in an insufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock being available to cover all the conversions, or in the event that Holder deems that the Shares authorized will become insufficient, the Company will move to call and hold a shareholder’s meeting within thirty (30) calendar days for the sole purpose of authorizing additional shares of Common Stock to facilitate the conversions. In such an event the Company shall recommend to all shareholders and management of the Company to vote their shares in favor of increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock in sufficient number to fully cover the Holder’s conversion rights. The Company represents and warrants that under no circumstances will it deny or prevent Holder’s right to convert the Shares as permitted under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. The Holder retains the right to request additional shares upon the determination the company may not be able to facilitate conversions in the future.

 

c. The Company shall furnish to the Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement and its legal counsel without charge and upon request (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC at least one copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such Registration Statement(s), any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC and any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, a copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as the Holder may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Holder may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities. The Company filing the documents described in this paragraph through EDGAR shall constitute delivery.

 

d. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under the applicable securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as reasonably specified by the Holder, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d) , (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Holder who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

e. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, would then contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact, which would otherwise be required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and, as a result, is required to be supplemented or as a result of which the Registration Statement is required to be amended (“ Registration Default ”) and use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare any necessary supplement to such prospectus or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default, (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”) and to be incorporated by reference in the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver one (1) copy of such supplement or amendment to Holder (or such other number of copies as Holder may reasonably request; delivery via EDGAR shall constitute delivery). Failure to cure the Registration Default within five (5) business days shall result in the Company paying liquidated damages of two percent (2%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Debentures then held by the Holder for each thirty (30) calendar day period or portion thereof, beginning on the date of suspension. The Company shall also promptly notify Holder in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Holder by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate, (iv) in the event the Registration Statement is no longer effective or, (v) the Registration Statement is stale for a period of more than five (5) Trading Days as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials with the SEC.

 

The Company acknowledges that its failure to cure the Registration Default within three (3) business days from the date of Default, will cause the Holder irreparable harm, and that damages will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties agree that it is appropriate to include in this Agreement a provision for liquidated damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty.

It is the intention of the parties that interest payable under any of the terms of this Agreement shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under any applicable law. If a law, which applies to this Agreement which sets the maximum interest amount, is finally interpreted so that the interest in connection with this Agreement exceeds the permitted limits, then: (1) any such interest shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the interest to the permitted limit; and (2) any sums already collected (if any) from the Company which exceed the permitted limits will be refunded to the Company. The Holder may choose to make this refund by reducing the amount that the Company owes under this Agreement or by making a direct payment to the Company. If a refund reduces the amount that the Company owes the Holder, the reduction will be treated as a partial payment. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

f. The Company shall use its Best Efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Holder of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof. The Company will immediately notify the Holder of a proceeding, or threat of proceeding, the result of which could affect the effectiveness of the registration statement.

 

g. The Company shall permit the Holder and its counsel, of the Holder’s choosing, to review and comment upon all Registration Statements, amendments and supplements, at least seven (7) days prior to filing. The Company shall not file any Registration Statement with which Holder or its counsel reasonably objects.

 

h. The Company shall make available for inspection by (i) the Holder and (ii) one firm of attorneys and one firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Holder (collectively, the “ Inspectors ”) all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “ Records ”), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to the Holder) or use of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement of which the Inspector has knowledge. The Holder agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential.

The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning a Holder is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the Holder and allow the Holder, at the Holder’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

 

j. The Company shall use its Best Efforts to secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement on the Principal Market. If, despite the Company’s Best Efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying this obligation, it shall use its Best Efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. If, despite the Company’s Best Efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying its obligation in this Section, it will use its Best Efforts to secure the inclusion for quotation with Pink Sheets, LLC or successor. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(j) .

 

k. The Company shall cooperate with the Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Holder may reasonably request and registered in such names of the Persons who shall acquire such Registrable Securities from the Holder, as the Holder may request.

 

l. The Company shall provide a transfer agent for all the Registrable Securities not later than the Effective Date of the first Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto.

 

m. If requested by the Holder, the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practical, incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as Holder reasonably determines should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by Holder.

Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6(c) hereof with respect to the number of legal counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Holder and each such controlling person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) : (i) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation committed by any Indemnified Person or which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus were timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure of the Holder to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) the Indemnified Person’s use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus; and (iii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Holder pursuant to the Registration Statement.

b. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6 , deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons and such counsel shall be selected by the Holder, if the Holder is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable.

The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 6 , except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

c. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

 

d. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

 

7. Contribution .

 

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 hereof to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6 hereof; (ii) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are counsel to Jacksam Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) entered into by and among the Company and Dutchess the “ Holder ” pursuant to which the Company has agreed to issue to the Holder shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Holder (the “ Registration Rights Agreement ”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), including the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable under the Subscription Agreement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”). In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on ____________ ___, 2017, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form ________ (File No. 333-________) (the “ Registration Statement ”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names the Holder as a selling shareholder thereunder.

 

In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that the Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act at [enter the time of effectiveness] on [ enter the date of effectiveness ] and to the best of our knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, no stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

  Very truly yours,

Jacksam, Inc. (DBA Convectium)

 

WARRANT NO. December # 1 Dated:

 

December 1 2017

 

Jacksam Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “ Company ”), hereby certifies that, for value received from Altar Rock Capital, a Delaware LLC (the “ Holder ”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company up to a total of Five Million 5,000,000 shares of the common stock equal par value $0.001 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”), of the Company (the “ Warrant Shares ”), at an exercise price equal to One one-hundredth ($0.001) per share (the “ Exercise Price ”). This Warrant may be exercised on a cashless basis any time after issuance through and including the third (3rd) anniversary of its original issuance as noted above (the “ Expiration Date ”), subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

1. Registration of Warrant . The Company shall, from time to time and whenever requested by the Holder, register this Warrant in conformity with records to be maintained by the Company for such purpose (the “ Warrant Register ”) in the name of the Holder. The Company shall treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for any and all purposes, including the exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

2. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges .

 

(a) The Company or the transfer agent shall enter or record the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at the office specified herein or pursuant to Section 11 hereof. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant hereinafter referred to as 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 Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.

 
 
1
 
 

 

(b) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the office of the Company specified herein or pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New Warrant shall be dated as of the date of such exchange.

 

3. Duration and Exercise of Warrants .

 

(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder on any business day before 5:00 P.M., Boston time, at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration Date. At 5:00 P.M., Boston time on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value. Prior to the Expiration Date, the Company may not call or otherwise redeem this Warrant without the prior written consent of the Holder, which consent shall be given or withheld at the sole and absolute discretion of the Holder.

 

(b) Subject to Section 2(b) , Section 6 and Section 10 hereof, upon: (x) surrender of this Warrant, together with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at its address for notice set forth in Section 11 hereof; and (y) payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in the manner provided hereunder, all as specified by the Holder in the Form of Election to Purchase, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) business days after the Date of Exercise (as defined below)) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to the Holder in such name(s) as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise and free of restrictive legends unless (i) a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act then the Warrant Shares will bear a Securities Act restrictive legend, or (ii) this Warrant shall have been issued pursuant to a written agreement between the original Holder and the Company, as required by such agreement. Any person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of Exercise of this Warrant. A “ Date of Exercise ” means the date on which the Company shall have received (I) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as applicable), together with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (or attached to such New Warrant) appropriately completed and duly signed; and (II) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the holder hereof to be purchased.

 

 
2
 
 

 

(c) This Warrant shall be exercisable in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares. If less than all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant are exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant. In the event the Common Stock representing the Warrant Shares is not delivered per the written instructions of the Holder within five (5) business days after the Notice of Election and Warrant is received by the Company (the “ Delivery Date ”), then the Company shall pay to Holder in cash two percent (2.0%) of the dollar value of the Warrant Shares to be issued per each day after the Delivery Date that the Warrant Shares are not delivered. The Company acknowledges that its failure to deliver the Warrant Shares by the Delivery Date will cause the Holder to suffer damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that it is appropriate to include in this Warrant this provision for liquidated damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith effort to quantify such damages and therefore agree that the form and amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to deliver the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Warrant. The Company shall make any payments incurred under this Section 3 in immediately available funds within five (5) business days from the date of issuance of the applicable Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or cancel the Notice of Election for the Company’s failure to issue and deliver Common Stock to the Holder within seven (7) business days following the Delivery Date.

 

4. Registration Rights . The Company agrees to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder within forty five (45) days of the completion of the merger with a public company (unless the Warrant Shares are otherwise freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) or Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act). The registration rights granted to the Holder pursuant to this Section shall continue until all of the Holder’s Warrant Shares have been sold in accordance with an effective registration statement or upon the Expiration Date, or as otherwise provided in the Debenture Registration Rights Agreement entered into between the Company and the original Holder as of the original issuance date hereof. The Company will pay all registration expenses in connection therewith.

 

5. Payment of Taxes . Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Warrant Shares; 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 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.

6. 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 indemnity, if requested, satisfactory to it. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.

 

7. 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 Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 8 hereof). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares that shall be 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. If the Company does not have a sufficient amount of Common Stock authorized to reserve for the Warrant Shares, it shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, use its best efforts to increase the number of its authorized shares such that the Company will have a sufficient amount of Common Stock authorized to reserve for the Warrant Shares.

 

8. Certain Adjustments . 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 8 . Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 8 , the Holder shall thereafter but prior to the Expiration Date be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

 

(a) An adjustment shall be made, if the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding (i) pays a stock dividend (except scheduled dividends paid on outstanding preferred stock as of the date hereof which contain a stated dividend rate) or otherwise make distribution(s) on shares of its Common Stock or on any other class of capital stock and not the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock; (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares. If either (i), (ii) or (iii) above occurs, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination, and shall apply to successive subdivisions and combinations.

 
 
4
 
 

 

(b) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another entity, the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant only into the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock following such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities or property equal to the amount of Warrant Shares such Holder would have been entitled to had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange. The terms of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange shall include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder the right to receive the securities or property set forth in this Section 8(b) upon any exercise following any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange.

 

(c) At any time while this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to holders of this Warrant) evidence of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (excluding those referred to in Section 8(a) , Section 8(b) and Section 8(d) hereof), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Exercise Price determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Exercise Price on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by the Company’s independent certified public accountants that regularly examines the financial statements of the Company (the “ Appraiser ”).

 

(d) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued rights or warrants to acquire or otherwise sell or distribute shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the lower of the Exercise Price then in effect and the then fair market value of the Common Stock, then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price (calculated to the nearest one hundredth of a cent) determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received (or to be received, assuming exercise or conversion in full of such rights, warrants and convertible securities) for the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock would purchase at the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the issuance of such additional shares. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance is made.

 
 
5
 
 

 

(e) For the purposes of this Section 8 , the following clauses shall also be applicable:

 

(i) Record Date . In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock or in securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

 

(ii) Treasury Shares . The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

(f) All calculations under this Section 8 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

 

(g) Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 8(c) hereof, the Holder, after receipt of the determination by the Appraiser, shall have the right to select an additional appraiser (which shall be a nationally recognized accounting firm), in which case the adjustment shall be equal to the average of the adjustments recommended by each of the Appraiser and such additional appraiser appointed under this Section 8(g) . The Holder shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to the Company, a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above, if:

 

(i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock;

 

(ii) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of its Common Stock;

 
 
6
 
 

 

(iii) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights;

 

(iv) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; or

 

(v) the Company shall authorize the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Warrant Register, at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, share exchange, dissolution, liquidation or winding up; provided, however, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.

 

9. Payment of Exercise Price . The Holder, at its sole election, may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:

 

(a) Cash Exercise . The Holder shall deliver immediately available funds; or

 

(b) Cashless Exercise . If at any time from the date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder at such time, this Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a cashless exercise. In such event, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, together with a notice of cashless exercise, and the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

 

X = Y (A-B)/A

 

where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

 
 
7
 
 

 

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

 

A = the average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the Date of Exercise.

 

B = the Exercise Price.

 

For purposes of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been commenced, on the issue date.

 

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, the Holder is limited in the amount of this Warrant it may exercise. In no event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise any amount of this Warrant in excess of that amount upon exercise of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”)) by the Holder, and (2) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of any Warrants then owned by Holder, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder of more than four and ninety- nine one hundredths percent (4.99%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, as determined in accordance with Rule13d-1(j) of the Exchange Act. Furthermore, the Company shall not process any exercise that would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder of more than four and ninety-nine one hundredths percent (4.99%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Jacksam Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Jacksam Corporation. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 the related statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Jacksam Corp.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

Note 1: Organization and Nature of Operations

 

 

Jacksam Corp. (“the Company”) is a technology company focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing a proprietary technology platform. The Company services the medical cannabis, hemp and CBD segments of the larger e-cigarette and vaporizer markets with oil vaporizer focused products. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had 2 principal product lines consisting of vape cartridges and batteries and a filling machine. Customers are primarily businesses operating in jurisdictions that have some form of cannabis legalization. These businesses include medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small scale processors and growers, and distributors. The Company expects continued growth as they take measures to invest in their own molds and intellectual property. The Company operates and sells products from the website www.Convectium.com.

 

 

 

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

 
The significant accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated:

 

 

a) Basis of Preparation

 

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.

 

 

b) Basis of Measurement

 

 

These financial statements are presented in US dollars and are prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are carried at fair value.

 

 

c) Use of Estimates

 

 

The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact both assets and liabilities, including but not limited to: net realizable value of accounts receivable and inventory, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, estimate of fair value of share based payments and derivative liabilities, estimates of fair value of warrants issued and recorded as debt discount and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future nonconforming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from estimates.

 

 

d) Risks and Uncertainties

 

 

The Company’s operations are subject to risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential risk of business failure. The Company has experienced, and in the future, expects to continue to experience, variability in its sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the uncertainty associated with the commercialization and ultimate success of the product, (ii) competition inherent at large national retail chains where product is expected to be sold, (iii) general economic conditions and (iv) the related volatility of prices pertaining to the cost of sales.

 

 

e) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
 

 
6
 
 

 

f) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future bad debts, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. All amounts are deemed collectible at December 31, 2017

 

 

g) Inventory

 

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or net realizable value. Cost principally consists of the purchase price (adjusted for lower of cost or market), customs, duties, and freight. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine potentially obsolete items and evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.

 

 

At December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had $121,121 and $86,574 in inventory, respectively. The December 31, 2017 and 2016 inventory consisted entirely of finished goods. The Company will maintain an allowance based on specific inventory items that have shown no activity over a 24-month period. The Company tracks inventory as it is disposed, scrapped or sold at below cost to determine whether additional items on hand should be reduced in value through an allowance method. As of December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company has determined that no allowance is required.

 

 

h) Property, Plant and Equipment

 

 

Property and equipment is measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from 5 to 7 years of the respective assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations.

 

 

i) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

 

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:
 

·

Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

 

·

Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

 

 

·

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

 

 
7
 
 

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable & accrued expenses, certain notes payable and an approximate of their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

 

Binomial Calculation model: The Company uses a binomial calculator model to determine fair market value of warrants and options issued.

 

 

j) Revenue Recognition

 

 

The Company derives revenues from the sale of machines and product income.Sales are recognized at the time title transfers to the customers, generally upon shipment and when all the following have occurred: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) asset is transferred to the customer without further obligation, (3) the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

 

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting standards under Topic 605. The adoption has had an immaterial impact to the Company’s comparative net income and as such comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the Company’s net income on an ongoing basis.

 

 

k) Cost of Sales

 

 

Cost of sales represents costs directly related to supplies and materials, machines, freight & delivery, commissions, printing, packaging and other costs.

 

 

l) Advertising and Marketing Expenses

 

 

Advertising & Marketing expense include cost incurred in public relations, online marketing, magazine, social networking etc.

 

 

m) General and Administrative Expenses

 

 

General and administrative expenses include costs incurred in wages and salaries, interest expense, interest expense (loans), officer salaries etc. Operating lease expense as on December 31 st , 2017 and 2016 was $45,863 and $27,685, respectively.

 

 

n) Income Tax Provision

 

 

Since inception of the Company on August 29, 2013 through December 31, 2017, the Company was taxed as a pass-through entity for Federal and State income tax purposes as an S Corporation. For Federal and State Income Tax purposes, income and losses are passed through to the shareholders. The Company has established nexus in California and is subject to the greater of the 1.5% California tax on State taxable income or the California $800 minimum tax.

 

 

The Company does not produce, procure, manufacturer or distribute any products that contain a Schedule I substance as defined in the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”). Therefore, the Company is not subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 280E.

 

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

 
8
 
 

 

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

 

The Company has generated sales outside of California. However, due to the Company’s historical tax losses, the Company does not believe there is significant state income tax exposure outside of California. As a result, no provision for uncertain tax positions have been recorded.

 

 

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not have any unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

 

o) Contingencies

 

 

The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s Financial Statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

 

 

p) Subsequent Events

 

 

The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date when the financial statements are available for issuance or July 27, 2018.

 

 

q) Marketable Securities

 

 

We report investments in marketable equity securities, and certain other equity securities, at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities are included in shareowners’ equity, net of applicable taxes and other adjustments. We currently do not have any available for sale securities.

 

 

Realized gains and losses are accounted for on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as trading are included in earnings.

 

 
9
 
 

 

We regularly review investment securities for impairment using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. If we do not expect to recover the entire cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI), and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its recoverable amount in earnings and the difference between the security’s recoverable amount and fair value in other comprehensive income. If we intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the security is also considered OTTI and we recognize the entire difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings. For equity securities, we consider the length of time and magnitude of the amount that each security is in an unrealized loss position. If we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be OTTI, and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings.

 

 

r) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

 

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” on revenue recognition. This guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The original effective date of this guidance was for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, early adoption is not permitted, and the guidance must be applied retrospectively or modified retrospectively. In July 2015, the FASB approved an optional one-year deferral of the effective date.

 

 

 

On January 1, 2017 the Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under Topic 605. The adoption of the new standard was immaterial to the Company’s net income on an ongoing basis.

 

 

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation, which is intended to simplify the accounting for share-based payment award transactions. The new standard will modify several aspects of the accounting and reporting for employee share-based payments and related tax accounting impacts, including the presentation in the statements of operations and cash flows of certain tax benefits or deficiencies and employee tax withholdings, as well as the accounting for award forfeitures over the vesting period. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that year, and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company anticipates that the new standard will result in an increase in the number of shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share and will add volatility to the Company’s effective tax rate and income tax expense. The magnitude of such impacts will depend in part on whether significant employee stock option exercises occur.

 

 

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Topic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs is not affected by ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has calculated imputed interest cost at 4% and created an accrual for the interest in 2017.

 

 

 

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”), which applies guidance on the subsequent measurement of inventory. ASU 2015-11 states that an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonable predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The guidance excludes inventory measured using last in, first out or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this standard had no impact our these financial statements.

 

 
10
 
 

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis,” which makes changes to both the variable interest model and voting interest model and eliminates the indefinite deferral of FASB Statement No. 167, included in ASU 2010-10, for certain investment funds. All reporting entities that hold a variable interest in other legal entities will need to re-evaluate their consolidation conclusions as well as disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including any interim period. The adoption of this standard had no impact on our financial statements.

 

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. This standard provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, the Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2016. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, inclusive of income tax accounting and disclosure considerations. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all impacted share-based payment arrangements. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which modifies the accounting for leasing arrangements, particularly those arrangements classified as operating leases. This update will require entities to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from operating leases on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all leasing arrangements. The Company is currently assessing the effects that this guidance may have on the financial statements.

 

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-01, clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). The standard clarifies the definition of a business by adding guidance to assist entities in evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Under ASU 2017-01, to be considered a business, the assets in the transaction need to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. Prior to the adoption of the new guidance, an acquisition or disposition would be considered a business if there were inputs, as well as processes that when applied to those inputs had the ability to create outputs. Early adoption is permitted for certain transactions. Adoption of ASU 2017-01 may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements if we enter into future business combinations.

 

 

Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards groups with future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to be significant to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, accrued interest on these loan outstanding balances for $ 16,766 and $ 6,965 respectively.

 

In addition to the above, in 2016 the Company borrowed and re-paid two lenders a total of $250,000 and repaid a lender $37,500 that originally loaned funds in 2015.

 

Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable

 

In December 2017, the Company issued $1,643,500 in convertible debentures to 37 investors during 2017, carrying 0% interest rate and a maturity date of three years after issuance. These convertible debentures will automatically convert upon maturity into common stock, if not converted or repaid sooner, at a conversion rate of $0.20 per share subject to certain conditions. These notes become convertible upon the closing of a reverse merger transaction. This transaction has not closed as of December 31, 2017 resulting in these notes not being convertible. The Company determined that these notes qualified as conventional convertible instruments. Further the Company evaluated the conversion feature and determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature. Imputed interest of $6,156 was calculated and accrued at 4% on ending balance of 2017 convertible debt and recorded to additional paid in capital.

 

In May 2017, the Company issued $100,000 of the convertible debentures that were due in October 2017. This note was converted in December 2017 into 1,437 common shares in accordance with the Convertible Promissory Note agreement.

 

As of December 31, 2015 the Company had convertible notes payable outstanding of $150,000. In 2016, an additional $250,000 of proceeds were received on convertible notes payable. Later in 2016, $25,000 of the balance was repaid in cash and the remaining $375,000 balance was converted to 5,362 shares of common stock.

 

Note 7: Income Taxes

 

At December 31, 2017, the Company had state net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $1,371,467 that expire in various years through the year 2037.

 

Due to operating losses, there is only the minimum current state income tax provision of $800 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for federal and state income tax purposes.

 
 
13
 
 

 

The Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2017 and 2016 consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated using state effective tax rates equating to approximately $20,572 and $11,167, respectively, plus nominal reserves not currently deductible to approximately $239 and $0, respectively, less a valuation allowance in the amount of approximately $20,733 and $11,105, respectively. Because of the Company’s lack of earnings history, the deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance in both 2017 and 2016. The valuation allowance increased by approximately $9,628 for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

The Company’s deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2017 and 2016 consist of fixed asset basis difference equating to approximately $78 and $62, respectively.

 

The Company’s total deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed into law by President Trump. The Tax Reform Act significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, while also repealing the deduction for domestic production activities, implementing a territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. U.S. GAAP requires that the impact of tax legislation be recognized in the period in which the law was enacted. The provisional amounts incorporate assumptions made based upon the Company’s current interpretation of the Tax Reform Act and may change as the Company receives additional clarification and implementation guidance. As the Company is taxed as an S-Corporation, the change in federal tax rates would not have an impact on the deferred tax assets or valuation allowance in place as of December 31, 2017.

 

On March 1, 2018, the Company filed an election to voluntarily revoke their S Corporation Election for Federal and State income tax purposes. The effective date of the revocation is January 1, 2018. Once the revocation has been approved by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the Company will be treated as a C Corporation for Federal and State income tax purposes effective January 1, 2018.

In December 2017, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Daniel Davis and Mark Adams. As of the Effective Date, and for one year of the date therefrom, the Executive’s annual salary shall be equal to $180,000 and $120,000, respectively, per annum (the “Annual Salary”). The Annual Salary shall be paid to the Executive in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices.

 

Executive’s Annual Salary shall increase automatically at the rate of five percent (5%) per year for four years, beginning on the anniversary date of the Effective Date. In addition to the automatic raises set forth above, the Annual Salary may also be increased from time to time by merit and general increases in amounts determined by the Board.

 

Performance Bonus. In addition to the Annual Salary, the Executive is eligible to earn an annual bonus of up to thirty percent (30%) of Executive’s Annual Salary (the “Performance Bonus”). The amount of the Performance Bonus will be determined in good faith by the Board, based upon the following factors:

 

 

(a) Fifty percent (50%) of the Performance Bonus shall be based upon the achievement of the Executive’s individual objectives, as defined in writing and presented to Executive annually by the Board.

 

 

 

 

(b) Fifty percent (50%) of the Performance Bonus shall be based upon the achievement of Company objectives – which shall include specifically, meeting or exceeding the revenue targets and other objectives as determined by the Board.

 

The initial set of performance objectives, both for Executive individually and for the Company, will be reasonably established by the Board within sixty (60) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement. Subsequent performance objectives, both for Executive individually and for the Company, will be reasonably established by the Board within sixty (60) days of the beginning of the calendar year to which the Performance Bonus relates.

Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant, the Company shall provide to the Executive:

 

(a) A lump sum payment equal to the greater of (i) twelve (12) months’ Annual Salary at the Executive’s then-current rate, or (ii) Executive’s Annual Salary for the remainder of the Term;

(c) any other amounts (including but not limited to any earned Performance Bonus during Executive’s active employment that may be payable pursuant to this Agreement) accrued and earned by Executive prior to the effective date of termination.

 

If a Change of Control occurs and the Executive is not offered continued employment on a comparable basis after the Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to receive, within thirty (30) days after the Change of Control, a sum equivalent to twelve (12) months’ Annual Salary, plus an additional 4% of Annual Salary in lieu of benefits, and any Performance Bonus that has been earned by Executive prior to the effective date of the Executive’s termination from the Company.

Jacksam Corp.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

Note 1: Organization and Nature of Operations

The Company services the medical cannabis, hemp and CBD segments of the larger e-cigarette and vaporizer markets with oil vaporizer focused products. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had 2 principal product lines consisting of vape cartridges and batteries and a filling machine. Customers are primarily businesses operating in jurisdictions that have some form of cannabis legalization. These businesses include medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small scale processors and growers, and distributors. The Company expects continued growth as they take measures to invest in their own molds and intellectual property. The Company operates and sells products from the website www.Convectium.com.

 

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Preparation

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or net realizable value. Cost principally consists of the purchase price (adjusted for lower of cost or market), customs, duties, and freight. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine potentially obsolete items and evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.

 

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $898,592 and $124,121 in inventory, respectively. The June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 inventory consisted entirely of finished goods. The Company will maintain an allowance based on specific inventory items that have shown no activity over a 24-month period. The Company tracks inventory as it is disposed, scrapped or sold at below cost to determine whether additional items on hand should be reduced in value through an allowance method. As of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the Company has determined that an allowance of $128,640 and $0 is required.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenues from the sale of machines and product income.Sales are recognized at the time title transfers to the customers, generally upon shipment and when all the following have occurred: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) asset is transferred to the customer without further obligation, (3) the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting standards under Topic 605. The adoption has had an immaterial impact to the Company’s comparative net income and as such comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the Company’s net income on an ongoing basis.

Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable

 

In December 2017, the Company issued $1,643,500 in convertible debentures to 37 investors during 2017, carrying 0% interest rate and a maturity date of three years after issuance. In January 2018 the Company issued an additional $75,000 under the same terms bringing the total balance outstanding as of June 30, 2018 to $1,718,500. These convertible debentures will automatically convert upon maturity into common stock, if not converted or repaid sooner, at a conversion rate of $0.20 per share subject to certain conditions. These notes become convertible upon the closing of a reverse merger transaction. This transaction has not closed as of June 30, 2018 resulting in these notes not being convertible. The Company determined that these notes qualified as conventional convertible instruments. Further the Company evaluated the conversion feature and determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature. Imputed interest of $33,898 was calculated and accrued at 4% and recorded to additional paid in capital.

 

In March 2018, the Company issued $1,500,000 in convertible debentures to 2 investors, carrying 0% interest rate and a maturity date of one year after issuance. These convertible debentures will automatically convert upon maturity into common stock if the Company’s stock is listed for quotation on the OTC markets or at the point the Company completes an equity financing of $1,500,000, if not converted or repaid sooner. The notes are convertible into approximately 3.33% of the shares outstanding based on an agreed upon conversion valuation of $45,000,000. The Company determined that these notes qualified as conventional convertible instruments. Further the Company evaluated the conversion feature and determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature. Imputed interest of $16,767 was calculated and accrued at 4% and recorded to additional paid in capital.

 

Note 7: Equity

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001. The stock has been designated 600,000 shares to Series A and 400,000 shares to Series B. All shares discussed are Series A as no Series B have been issued.

 

In December 2017 and March 2018 the Company issued convertible debentures with a 0% stated interest rate. As a result imputed interest was calculated and recorded to equity in the amount of $50,665 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

EXHIBIT 99.3

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Acquisition of Jacksam Corporation

 

On September 14, 2018, our wholly owned subsidiary, Jacksam Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2018, or the Acquisition Sub, merged with and into Jacksam Corporation, a corporation incorporated in August 2013 in the State of Delaware, referred to herein as Jacksam. Pursuant to this transaction, or the Merger, Acquisition Sub was the surviving corporation, and changed its name to “Jacksam Corporation”. All of the outstanding capital stock of Jacksam was converted into shares of our Common Stock.

 

As a result of the Merger, we acquired the one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares and the business of Jacksam and will continue the existing business operations of Jacksam as our wholly owned Operating subsidiary under the name Jacksam Corporation.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, and in connection with the completion of the acquisition, on the Closing Date we issued 45,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share to the Jacksam shareholders in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding Jacksam. Following the acquisition there is a total of 48,272,311 shares of common stock issued and outstanding of which 3,272,311 are held by shareholders of the Company prior to the merger.

 

The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements give effect to the Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange between Jacksam Corporation and China Grand Resorts, Inc.

 

The Acquisition will be accounted for as a “reverse merger” and recapitalization since, immediately following the completion of the transaction, the prior owners of Jacksam will have effective control of the public entity. For accounting purposes, Jacksam will be deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction will be treated as a recapitalization of China Grand Resorts, Inc. Accordingly, Jacksam’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will become the historical financial statements of the registrant, and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will be consolidated with Jacksam effective as of the date of the closing of the Merger. No step-up in basis or intangible assets or goodwill will be recorded in this transaction.  

 

The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2018, as well as the unaudited combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and for the six months ended June 30, 2018, presented herein, gives effect to the Merger as if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of such period and includes certain adjustments within the Stockholder’s Equity section that are directly attributable to the transaction. Historically the fiscal year end for China Grand Resorts, Inc. was September 30 compared to December 31 for Jacksam. In accordance with SEC guidance these period ends are considered comparable because they are within 93 days. As such the Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 is combining the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 for China Grand Resorts, Inc. with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 for Jacksam. The Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is combining the six months ended March 31, 2018 for China Grand Resorts, Inc. with the six months ended June 30, 2018 for Jacksam.

 

The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been prepared for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had Jacksam and China Grand Resorts, Inc. been a combined company during the specified periods. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the historical combined financial statements of Jacksam Corporation included herein, and the historical financial statements of China Grand Resorts, Inc. included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and nine months ended June 30, 2018.
