Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The information in  Item 2.01  below regarding the W Marketing Exchange Agreement, W Marketing Notes, Employment Agreement and the Lock-Up Agreement (each as defined below), is incorporated in this  Item 1.01  by reference.

 

From May 26, 2017 to June 12, 2017, Probility Media Corporation (“ Probility ”, the “ Company ”, “ we ” and “ us ”), sold an aggregate of $356,000 in 15% Convertible Promissory Notes, to eight investors in private transactions (the “ 15% Convertible Notes ”). The notes, which have a term of three years, accrue interest at the rate of 15% per annum, payable monthly in arrears, may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity, and are convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holders thereof at a conversion price of $0.15 per share. The 15% Convertible Notes contain customary events of default and a conversion limitation prohibiting the holders thereof from converting the 15% Convertible Notes into more shares of the Company’s common stock than would result in each holder’s ownership of the Company exceeding 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock.

 

On June 6, 2017, we sold a 12% Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $200,000 to a third party investor in a private transaction (the “ 12% Convertible Note ”). The note, which is due June 16, 2020, accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default), payable monthly in arrears, may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity, and is convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. Additionally, after June 16, 2018, the Company has the right to force conversion of the note if any of the following conditions are met: (1) the Company’s common stock has a bid price of at least $1.00 per share on each of the 30 trading days before the date in question; (2) the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock for the prior 30 trading days exceeds 200,000 shares; and (3) the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ or any other National Exchange. The 12% Convertible Note contains customary events of default and a conversion limitation prohibiting the holder thereof from converting the 12% Convertible Note into more shares of the Company’s common stock than would result in the holder’s ownership of the Company exceeding 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the form of 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 , to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.

 

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

W Marketing Acquisition

 

On June 22, 2017, we consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Exchange Agreement (the “ W Marketing Exchange Agreement ”), by and between the Company, W Marketing Inc. (“ W Marketing ”), and the two shareholders of W Marketing (the “ W Marketing Shareholders ”). In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the W Marketing Exchange Agreement (the “ W Marketing Exchange ”), we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of W Marketing from the W Marketing Shareholders in consideration for 900,000 shares of restricted common stock (the “ W Marketing Shares ”), the assumption of an outstanding promissory note in the amount of $70,000 owed by W Marketing to Citibank and $75,000 in W Marketing Notes (defined below). The W Marketing Exchange has an effective date of May 1, 2017. The W Marketing Share Exchange Agreement included standard and customary representations, warranties and indemnification rights.

 

As additional consideration for agreeing to the terms of the transaction, we agreed to issue the W Marketing Shareholders an additional $50,000 of shares of restricted common stock (based on the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on July 31, 2018), in the event the revenue generated by W Marketing exceeds $1.5 million during the 12 calendar months ended July 31, 2018 (the “ W Marketing Earn-Out ” and the “ W Marketing Earn-Out Shares ”).

W Marketing, located in Hauppauge, New York, provides the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) through its nationwide network of electrical distributors, which includes bookstores, trade/vocational schools, universities, retail chains, specialty retailers, and independent hardware stores. The NEC is a regionally adoptable standard for the safe installation of electrical wiring and equipment in the United States. It is part of the National Fire Codes series published by the National Fire Protection (NFPA), a private association. First published in 1897, the NEC is updated and published every three years. W Marketing’s library of published products includes courses and exam preparation materials.

 

We provided Promissory Notes (the “ W Marketing Notes ”) to each of the two W Marketing Shareholders at closing, which each evidence the principal amount of $37,500 ($75,000 in aggregate) owed to such W Marketing Shareholders. The W Marketing Notes accrue interest at the rate of 8% per annum (12% upon the occurrence of an event of default), beginning June 22, 2017, and are payable at the rate of $3,306 per month, beginning August 22, 2017, through the maturity date of such notes, August 22, 2018. The W Marketing Notes contain standard and customary events of default and may be prepaid at any time without penalty.

 

As part of the W Marketing Exchange, on June 22, 2017, and effective June 23, 2017, we entered into an employment agreement with Jeffrey S. Spellman, one of the employees of W Marketing (“ Employment Agreement ”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, we agreed to pay Mr. Spellman, $50,000 per year, pay Mr. Spellman a commission of 4% of the net profit originated through his personal direct sales efforts, issue him $1,000 worth of shares of restricted common stock of the Company at the end of each calendar quarter during the term of the agreement (beginning September 30, 2017)(the “ Employment Agreement Shares ”), and pay him one month of salary as severance pay in the event the agreement is terminated by Mr. Spellman with good reason or terminated by the Company without cause. The agreement includes standard and customary indemnification, work for hire, confidentiality, arbitration and trade secret provisions.

 

In the event that Mr. Spellman’s employment with the Company is terminated by Mr. Spellman, terminated by the Company for cause, or terminated due to Mr. Spellman’s death or disability (a “ Triggering Termination ”), prior to September 20, 2017, the principal amount of the W Marketing Notes are each automatically decreased by the lesser of (a) $7,500; and (b) the then principal amount of such notes. In the event that Jeffrey S. Spellman’s employment with the Company is terminated due to a Triggering Termination prior to December 19, 2017, the W Marketing Earn-Out is deemed terminated and no Earn-Out Shares are due whatsoever to the W Marketing Shareholders.

 

The shares issued pursuant to the W Marketing Exchange Agreement are subject to a lock-up agreement (the “ Lock-Up Agreement ”), which prohibits the sale of any such shares for a period of one year and restricts the sale of any of the shares in any thirty day period, for an additional one year thereafter, to 10% of the total volume of our common stock which traded in the prior 30 days, on a rolling basis.

The foregoing descriptions of the W Marketing Exchange Agreement, W Marketing Notes, Employment Agreement and Lock-Up Agreement, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the W Marketing Exchange Agreement, Form of W Marketing Notes, Employment Agreement and Lock-Up Agreement, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 2.1, 10.3, 10.4, and 10.5 , to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated in this Item 2.01 by reference.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

See the discussions under Item 1.01 above with respect to the 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note and  Item 2.01  above with respect to the W Marketing Notes and Employment Agreement, which are incorporated in this  Item 2.03  in their entirety, by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

As described above under Item 1.01 , we sold the 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note in May and June 2017.

 

In connection with the closing of the W Marketing Share Exchange, we issued the W Marketing Shares to the W Marketing Shareholders and agreed, subject to the requirements of the W Marketing Share Exchange Agreement, to issue the W Marketing Shareholders the W Marketing Earn-Out Shares. In connection with our entry into the Employment Agreement we agreed to issue Mr. Spellman the Employment Agreement Shares.

 

The Company claims (and will claim) an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), for the offer and sale of the 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note, W Marketing Shares, W Marketing Earn-Out Shares and Employment Agreement Shares, described above in Item 1.01 and  Item 2.01 , due to the fact that the foregoing offers and sales did not (and will not) involve a public offering, the recipients took (and will take) the securities for investment and not resale, the Company has taken (and will take) appropriate measures to restrict transfer, and the recipients (a) are “ accredited investors, ” and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act.

 

In the event the 15% Convertible Notes and 12% Convertible Note are converted in full, and not including any accrued interest, which is also convertible into shares of our common stock on similar terms as the principal thereof, a total of 2,373,334 shares of common stock would be due to the holders of the 15% Convertible Notes and a total of 800,000 shares of common stock would be due to the holder of the 12% Convertible Note.

 

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On June 27, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing the entry into and the closing of the transactions contemplated by the W Marketing Exchange Agreement and related matters as described above in  Item 2.01 . A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

Payment is not a condition precedent to recovery of indemnification for Losses.

 

7.2.        Indemnification by the Company. Subject to the provisions of this Article, the Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the W Marketing Shareholders (the “ W Marketing Indemnified Persons ”), harmless from and against any and all Losses that any W Marketing Indemnified Person may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to arising out of or due to: (a) the non-fulfillment of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of the Company under this Agreement or; (b) any action taken by W Marketing and/or the operations of W Marketing after the Closing; which, however, does not include any action that was caused by or as a fault of an action which originally occurred prior to the Closing Date or could be partially attributed as a Loss to the Company under Section 7.1 of this Agreement; (c) any misstatement, breach of or inaccuracy of any material representation of the Company in this Agreement; or (d) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Company in this Agreement provided however, that the Company will not be liable under clause (d) of this Section 7.2 unless the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Threshold, in which event the Company shall be liable for all Losses up to, including and exceeding the amount of the Threshold.

7.4.        Notice and Opportunity to Defend. If a Claim for Losses is to be made by any Company Indemnified Person or W Marketing Indemnified Person (any such indemnified person, hereinafter a “ Claimant ”) seeking indemnification hereunder, such Claimant shall notify the indemnifying party or parties (any such indemnifying party, a “ Respondent ”) promptly. If such event involves (a) any claim or (b) the commencement of any action or proceeding by a third person, Claimant shall give Respondent written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding as provided above. Delay or failure to so notify Respondent shall only relieve Respondent of its obligation to the extent, if at all, that Respondent is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. Respondent shall have a period of 30 days within which to respond thereto. If Respondent accepts responsibility or does not respond within such 30 day period, then Respondent shall be obligated to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by counsel chosen by Respondent, which counsel shall be acceptable to such Company Indemnified Person or W Marketing Indemnified Person, as the case may be, such matter, and Respondent shall provide Claimant with such assurances as may be reasonably required by Claimant to assure that Respondent will assume and be responsible for the entire liability at issue. If Respondent fails to assume the defense of such matter within said 30 day period, Claimant will (upon delivering notice to such effect to Respondent) have the right to undertake, at Respondent’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such matter on behalf of such Claimant. The Claimant agrees to cooperate with Respondent and its counsel in the defense against any such asserted liability. In any event, Claimant shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of such asserted liability. Any compromise of such asserted liability by Respondent shall require the prior written consent of Claimant, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld and in the event Claimant defends any such asserted liability, then any compromise of such asserted liability by Claimant shall require the prior written consent of Respondent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

7.5.        Remedies Exclusive. The remedies conferred by this Article are intended to be exclusive of and shall supersede any other remedy available under law or at equity.

 

7.6.        Emergency Relief. Notwithstanding anything in this Article to the contrary, any Party may seek emergency relief from a court for any remedy that may be necessary to protect any rights or property of such Party pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal or its determination of the merits of the controversy.

 

7.7.        Right to Set Off. In the event that the Company shall have a claim against any W Marketing Shareholder for which the Company has not been fully indemnified as contemplated above, the Company shall have the right to set off the amount of such claim against any W Marketing Shareholder, against any amounts due such W Marketing Shareholder hereunder, under the Note, in connection with the Earn-Out Shares, or any other agreement or understanding by and between the Company and any W Marketing Shareholder.

 

ARTICLE VIII.
CONFIDENTIALITY

 

8.1.        Confidentiality. At all times after the Closing, each W Marketing Shareholder shall retain in strictest confidence, and shall not disclose to any third parties or use for their benefit (other than in order to fulfill the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or for the benefit of others any confidential information comprising or related to the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates, W Marketing, or W Marketing’s property, including its Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, trade secrets, source code, customer lists, marketing plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, or technologies (collectively “ Confidential Information ”). Confidential Information shall not include information which (i) is or becomes part of the public domain without breach of this Agreement, (ii) was known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the other party (except in connection with information of W Marketing, which shall be considered Confidential Information for all purposes), (iii) is independently received by the receiving party without the use of confidential information, or (iv) is explicitly approved for release by written authorization of the disclosing party. In the event that the receiving party is legally required to disclose any confidential information, the receiving party shall promptly notify the disclosing party of such requirement and, if requested by the disclosing party, shall reasonably cooperate in the disclosing party’s efforts to prevent or limit such disclosure.

 

8.2.        Enforceability.

 

8.2.1        It is the desire and intent of the Parties that the provisions of ARTICLE VIII shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provision or portion of ARTICLE VIII shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, ARTICLE VIII shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of this Section 8.2 in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. W Marketing and each W Marketing Shareholder agrees that it would be difficult to measure the damages to Company and its affiliates from the breach by W Marketing or W Marketing Shareholders of the provisions of ARTICLE VIII , that injury to the Company from such breach would be impossible to calculate, and that monetary damages would therefore be an inadequate remedy; accordingly, W Marketing and the W Marketing Shareholders agree that the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies it might have, to injunctions or other appropriate orders to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damages.

10.17.        Remedies. The Parties agree that the covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement relate to special, unique and extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof would cause irreparable injury in an amount which would be impossible to estimate or determine and for which any remedy at law would be inadequate.

Each W Marketing Shareholder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other W Marketing Shareholder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose, subject in each case to the terms and conditions hereof.

10.20.        No Presumption from Drafting. This Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s-length between Persons knowledgeable in the matters set forth within this Agreement. Accordingly, given that all Parties have had the opportunity to draft, review and/or edit the language of this Agreement, no presumption for or against any Party arising out of drafting all or any part of this Agreement will be applied in any action relating to, connected with or involving this Agreement.

10.24.        Cooperation Following the Closing. Following the Closing, each Party shall deliver to the other Party such further information and documents and shall execute and deliver to the other Party such further instruments and agreements as the other Party shall reasonably request to consummate or confirm the transactions provided for herein, to accomplish the purpose hereof or to assure to the other Party the benefits hereof.

 

10.25.        Counterparts, Effect of Facsimile, Emailed and Photocopied Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .peg or similar attachment to electronic mail (including email) or as an electronic download (any such delivery, an “ Electronic Delivery ”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any Party, each other Party shall re execute the original form of this Agreement and deliver such form to all other Parties. No Party shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

$37,500 June 22, 2017

 

NOW THEREFORE FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Probility Media Corporation , a Nevada corporation (“ Probility ”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Scott Forde (“ Holder ”), Thirty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($37,500) (the “ Principal ”), in lawful money of the United States of America, which shall be legal tender, not bearing interest and payable as provided herein. This Promissory Note (this “ Note ”) is entered into to evidence amounts owed to Holder by Probility under that certain Share Exchange Agreement by and between Probility, W Marketing Inc., a New York corporation, and the shareholders of W Marketing, Inc., effective as of May 1, 2017 (the “ Share Exchange ”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined have the meanings given to such terms in the Share Exchange.

 

1.        This Note shall accrue interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (“ Interest ”), beginning on June 22, 2017. All past-due Principal and Interest (which failure to pay such amounts shall be defined herein as an “ Event of Default ”) shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum until paid in full (the “ Default Rate ”).

 

2.        Probility agrees to pay the Holder (a) the lesser of (i) $3,305.71; or (ii) the total amount then due under this Note, per month (each a “ Monthly Payment ”); payable on or before the 22th Business Day of each month (each the “ Monthly Payment Date ”) towards the outstanding Principal and accrued Interest on this Note (if any), with the first such Monthly Payment due on August 22, 2017, until the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date (when the entire then outstanding balance of this Note shall be due and payable), or (ii) the date that the Principal balance and all accrued Interest owed on this Note has been repaid in full. The “ Maturity Date ” of this Note shall be August 22, 2018.

 

3.        In the event that Jeffrey S. Spellman’s employment with the Company shall be terminated by Mr. Spellman, terminated by the Company for cause, or terminated due to Mr. Spellman’s death or disability, prior to 90 days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Share Exchange), the Principal amount of this Note shall automatically decrease by the lesser of (a) $7,500; and (b) the then Principal Amount of the Note (together with accrued Interest thereon), and the Monthly Payment shall be re-amortized for the remaining length and Principal balance of the Note.

 

4.        This Note and accrued Interest hereon may be prepaid in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty.

 

5.        All payments made by Probility under this Note will be applied: (i) first, to late charges, costs of collection or enforcement, and similar amounts due, if any, under the Note; (ii) second, to Interest that is due and payable under this Note; and (iii) third, the remainder to Principal due and payable under this Note.

 

6.        If any payment of Principal or Interest on this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which national banks are not open for business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day.

 

7.        This Note shall be binding upon Probility and inure to the benefit of Holder and Holder’s respective successors and assigns. Each holder of this Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by all of the provisions of this Note. Holder may assign this Note or any of its rights, interests or obligations to this Note with notice to, but without the prior written approval of Probility.

 

8.        No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of Probility to pay the Principal and Interest on this Note at the times, places and rates, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

9.        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, it is agreed that the aggregate of all charges constituting interest, or adjudicated as constituting Interest, and contracted for, chargeable or receivable under this Note or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction, shall under no circumstances exceed the Maximum Rate.

 

10.        Probility represents and warrants to Holder as follows:

 

(a)       The execution and delivery by Probility of this Note (i) are within Probility’s power and authority, and (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary action.

 

 

 

June 22, 2017 Page 1 of 4  

 

(b)       This Note is a legally binding obligation of Probility, enforceable against Probility in accordance with the terms hereof, except to the extent that (i) such enforceability is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, and (ii) the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefore may be brought.

 

11.        If an Event of Default (as defined herein) occurs (unless all Events of Default have been cured or waived by Holder), Holder may, by written notice to Probility, declare the Principal and all other amounts payable on, this Note to be immediately due and payable (“ Acceleration ”). The following events and/or any other Events of Default defined elsewhere in this Note are “ Events of Default ” under this Note:

 

(a)       Probility shall fail to pay, when and as due, the Principal or Interest payable hereunder within ten (10) days from the due date of such payment; or

 

(b)       Probility shall have breached in any material respect any term, condition or covenant in this Note, and, with respect to breaches capable of being cured, such breach shall not have been cured within fifteen (15) days following the occurrence of such breach; or

 

(c)       Probility shall: (i) take any action which constitutes its admission of inability to pay its debts as they mature; (ii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, file a petition in bankruptcy, petition or apply to any tribunal for the appointment of a custodian, receiver or a trustee for it or a substantial portion of its assets; (iii) commence any proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation or statute of any jurisdiction, whether now or hereafter in effect; (iv) have filed against it any such petition or application in which an order for relief is entered or which remains undismissed for a period of ninety (90) days or more; (v) indicate its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such petition, application, proceeding or order for relief or the appointment of a custodian, receiver or trustee for it or a substantial portion of its assets; or (vi) suffer any such custodianship, receivership or trusteeship to continue undischarged for a period of ninety (90) days or more; or

 

(d)       the dissolution or liquidation of Probility; or

 

(e)       Probility shall take any action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

 

12.        In case any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, Holder may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. In case of a default in the payment of any Principal or Interest of or premium, if any, Probility will pay to Holder such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable cost and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Note upon Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Holder shall also have such other rights as described herein.

 

13.        If from any circumstance any holder of this Note shall ever receive interest or any other charges constituting interest, or adjudicated as constituting interest, the amount, if any, which would exceed the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the Principal amount owing on this Note, and not to the payment of interest; or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of Principal hereof, the amount of such excessive interest that exceeds the unpaid balance of Principal hereof shall be refunded to Probility. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, to the extent permitted by applicable law (i) any non-Principal payment shall be characterized as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; and (ii) all interest at any time contracted for, charged, received or preserved in connection herewith shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of this Note. The term “ Maximum Rate ” shall mean the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable federal or state law.

 

14.        Except as provided herein, Probility and any sureties, guarantors and endorsers of this Note jointly and severally waive demand, presentment, notice of nonpayment or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, diligence in collecting, grace, notice and protest, and consent to all extensions without notice for any period or periods of time and partial payments, before or after maturity, without prejudice to the holder. Holder shall similarly have the right to deal in anyway, at any time, with one or more of the foregoing parties without notice to any other party, and to grant any such party any extensions of time for payment of any of said indebtedness, or to grant any other indulgences or forbearance whatsoever, without notice to any other party and without in any way affecting the personal liability of any party hereunder. If any efforts are made to collect or enforce this Note or any installment due hereunder, the undersigned agrees to pay all collection costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

PROBILITY MEDIA CORP. CLOSES THE ACQUISITION OF W MARKETING

 

June 27, 2017

 

HOUSTON, TX–(Marketwired – Jun 27, 2017) – ProBility Media Corp. (OTCQB: PBYA) today announces that it has closed the acquisition of W Marketing, Inc., a profitable, revenue-generating provider of National Electrical Codes (NECs) to the electrical and construction industries. The acquisition is expected to strengthen ProBility’s financial position and enable the Company to become one of the nation’s largest wholesalers of National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) electrical codes.

 

W Marketing, located in Hauppauge, New York, provides the latest NECs through its nationwide network of electrical distributors, which includes bookstores, trade/vocational schools, universities, retail chains, specialty retailers, and independent hardware stores. ProBility now expects to become one of the largest wholesalers of NFPA electrical codes in the United States, and expects to provide codes to over 175,000 electricians in each three-year cycle.

 

The NEC is a regionally adoptable standard for the safe installation of electrical wiring and equipment in the United States. It is part of the National Fire Codes series published by the National Fire Protection (NFPA), a private association. First published in 1897, the NEC is updated and published every three years, 2017 being the most recent addition. In 2017, W Marketing achieved $2.7 million in revenues. ProBility expects 2018 and 2019 revenues to be less than 2017, and to increase again in 2020, when the new codes will be released.

 

W Marketing’s vast library of published products includes courses and exam preparation materials. The company is also the official publisher and producer of the Dr. Watts companion electrical guides for the electrical and construction trades. With a complete line of NEC books, reference guides, training DVDs and CD-Roms, W Marketing is a strong advocate for continued learning within the electrical, plumbing, building and construction industries.

 

“The closing of the acquisition of W Marketing highlights our commitment to aggressively building an international brand for education, training and compliance dedicated to the skilled trades,” states Noah Davis, President and Chief Operating Officer of ProBility. “With the aggressive push from the current administration and the anticipated apprenticeship program, ProBility is positioned to take advantage of the projected upturn in the macroeconomic environment for construction and building by offering high quality products with the emphasis on safety.”
