ATRX Adhera Therapeutics Inc (CE)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

Note 1 – Organization and Business Operations

Adhera Therapeutics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, MDRNA Research, Inc. (“MDRNA”), Cequent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Cequent”), Atossa Healthcare, Inc. (“Atossa”), and IThenaPharma, Inc. (“IThena”) (collectively “Adhera,” or the “Company”), is an emerging specialty biotech company that, to the extent that resources and opportunities become available, is strategically evaluating its focus including a return to a drug discovery and development company.

On July 28, 2021, we as licensee and Melior Pharmaceuticals II, LLC entered into an exclusive license agreement for the development, commercialization and exclusive license of MLR-1019. MLR-1019 is being developed as a new class of therapeutic for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and is, to the best of our knowledge, the only drug candidate today to address both movement and non-movement aspects of PD. Under the Agreement, we were granted an exclusive license to use the MP Patents and know-how to develop products in consideration for cash payments upon meeting certain performance milestones as well as a royalty of 5% of gross sales.

On August 20, 2021, we as licensee entered into an exclusive license agreement with Melior Pharmaceuticals I, Inc. for the development, commercialization and exclusive license of MLR-1023. MLR-1023 is being developed as a novel therapeutic for Type 1 diabetes.

On October 20, 2021, we as licensee expanded the exclusive licensing agreement with Melior Pharmaceuticals I, Inc. to include two additional clinical indications for Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) and pulmonary inflammation.

To the extent that resources have been available, the Company has continued to work with its advisors in an effort to restructure our company and to identify potential strategic transactions to enhance the value of our company as such opportunities arise, including potential transactions and capital raising initiatives involving the assets relating to our legacy RNA interference programs, as well as business combination transactions with operating companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful at identifying any such transactions, that it will continue to have sufficient resources to actively attempt to identify such transactions, or that such transactions will be available upon terms acceptable to us or at all. If the Company does not complete any significant strategic transactions, or raise substantial additional capital, in the near future, it is likely that the Company will discontinue all operations and seek bankruptcy protection.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The information furnished in this Report reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each period presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future period.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Adhera Therapeutics, Inc. and the wholly-owned subsidiaries, Ithena, Cequent, MDRNA, and Atossa, and eliminate any inter-company balances and transactions. All wholly-owned subsidiaries of Adhera Therapeutics, Inc. are inactive.

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $40,000 and has negative working capital of approximately $25.5 million.

The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has funded its operating losses through the sale of common stock, preferred stock, warrants to purchase common stock, convertible notes and secured promissory notes. The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $74,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and used cash in operating activities of approximately $216,000. The Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $53.5 million as of March 31, 2022.

In addition, to the extent that the Company continues its business operations, the Company anticipates that it will continue to have negative cash flows from operations, at least into the near future. However, the Company cannot be certain that it will be able to obtain such funds required for its our operations at terms acceptable to the Company or at all. General market conditions, as well as market conditions for companies in the Company’s financial and business position, as well as the ongoing issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ukraine war and inflation and the Federal Reserve interest rate increases in response, may make it difficult for the Company to seek financing from the capital markets, and the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of its stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing in the future, there may be a negative impact on the financial viability of the Company. The Company plans to increase working capital by managing its cash flows and expenses, divesting development assets and raising additional capital through private or public equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that such financing or partnerships will be available on terms which are favorable to the Company or at all. While management of the Company believes that it has a plan to fund ongoing operations, there is no assurance that its plan will be successfully implemented. Failure to raise additional capital through one or more financings, divesting development assets or reducing discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this Report. The consolidated financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the resolution of any of the above uncertainties.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $40,000 in cash.

The Company deposits its cash with major financial institutions and may at times exceed the federally insured limit. At March 31, 2022, the Company’s cash balance did not exceed the federal insurance limit.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include accruals related to our operating activity including legal and other consulting expenses, the fair value of non-cash equity-based issuances, the fair value of derivative liabilities, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions or circumstances.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers the fair value of cash, accounts payable, debt, and accrued expenses not to be materially different from their carrying value. These financial instruments have short-term maturities. We follow authoritative guidance with respect to fair value reporting issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for financial assets and liabilities, which defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. The guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

As of March 31, 2022, the Company measured conversion features on outstanding convertible notes and warrants as a derivative liability using significant unobservable prices that are based on little or no verifiable market data, which is Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, resulting in a fair value estimate of approximately $7.2 million. The value of the derivative liability as of March 31, 2022, was determined by using the binomial lattice model using the following inputs: risk free rate of 1.63% to 2.45%, volatility of 244.5% to 309.03% and time to maturity of zero to 0.88 years. There were no liabilities or assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2022.

A roll forward of the level 3 valuation financial instruments is as follows:

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments” allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding equity instruments.

Convertible Debt and Warrant Accounting

Debt with warrants

In accordance with ASC Topic 470-20-25, when the Company issues debt with warrants, the Company treats the relative fair value of the warrants as a debt discount, recorded as a contra-liability against the debt, and amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The offset to the contra-liability is recorded as additional paid in capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets if the warrants are not treated as a derivative. The Company determines the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (“Black-Scholes”), the binomial model or the Monte Carlo Method based upon the underlying conversion features of the debt and then computes and records the relative fair value as a debt discount. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Convertible debt – derivative treatment

When the Company issues debt with a conversion feature, it first assesses whether the conversion feature meets the requirements to be accounted for as stock settled debt. If it does not meet those requirements then it is assessed on whether the conversion feature should be bifurcated and treated as a derivative liability, as follows: a) one or more underlyings, typically the price of our common stock; b) one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both, generally the number of shares upon conversion; c) no initial net investment, which typically excludes the amount borrowed; and d) net settlement provisions, which in the case of convertible debt generally means the stock received upon conversion can be readily sold for cash. An embedded equity-linked component that meets the definition of a derivative does not have to be separated from the host instrument if the component qualifies for the scope exception for certain contracts involving an issuer’s own equity. The scope exception applies if the contract is both a) indexed to its own stock; and b) classified in stockholders’ equity in its statement of financial position.

Convertible debt – beneficial conversion feature

Prior to the Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”) on January 1, 2021, if the conversion feature was not treated as a derivative, the Company assessed whether it is a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF exists if the effective conversion price of the convertible debt instrument is less than the stock price on the commitment date. This typically occurs when the conversion price is less than the fair value of the stock on the date the instrument was issued. The value of a BCF is equal to the intrinsic value of the feature, the difference between the conversion price and the common stock into which it is convertible and is recorded as additional paid in capital and as a debt discount in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) (“ASU 2017-04”), which will simplify the goodwill impairment calculation by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test. The new standard does not change how a goodwill impairment is identified. The Company will continue to perform its quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of its reporting unit to its carrying amount, but if the Company is required to recognize a goodwill impairment charge, under the new standard, the amount of the charge will be calculated by subtracting the reporting unit’s fair value from its carrying amount. Under the current standard, if the Company is required to recognize a goodwill impairment charge, Step 2 requires it to calculate the implied value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the amount of the charge is calculated by subtracting the reporting unit’s implied fair value of goodwill from the goodwill carrying amount. The standard was effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which will simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including certain convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. Specifically, the new standard will remove the separation models required for convertible debt with cash conversion features and convertible instruments with beneficial conversion features. It will also remove certain settlement conditions that are currently required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and will simplify the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 will be effective January 1, 2022, for the Company and may be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than January 1, 2021, for the Company. The Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. Management determined such adoption did not have a material impact on the overall stockholders’ equity (deficit) in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-04: Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in ASU 2021-04 provide the following guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic:

An entity should recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option to compensate for goods or services in accordance with the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. In a multiple-element transaction (for example, one that includes both debt financing and equity financing), the total effect of the modification should be allocated to the respective elements in the transaction.

The amendments in ASU 2021-04 are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity elects to early adopt the amendments in ASU 2021-04 in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year. The adoption by the Company as of January 1, 2022 did not have a significant impact on its financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. Common stock equivalents are only included when their effect is dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities which include outstanding warrants, stock options, convertible notes and preferred stock have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. For all periods presented, basic and diluted net loss were the same.

The following table presents the computation of net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

The following number of shares have been excluded from diluted net (loss) since such inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

Schedule of Antidilutive Securities Excluded from Computation of Earnings Per Share

As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s fully diluted common stock equivalents exceeded the 180,000,000 shares currently authorized.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and non-employees, including stock options, in the statements of operations.

For stock options issued, the Company estimates the grant date fair value of each option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the expected life of the option, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the common stock. For awards subject to service-based vesting conditions, including those with a graded vesting schedule, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense equal to the grant date fair value of stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term. Forfeitures are recorded as they are incurred as opposed to being estimated at the time of grant and revised if and when a forfeiture becomes probable.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carry forwards, 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 income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method to compute the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the related financial amounts, using currently enacted tax rates.

Note 3 – Prepaid Expenses

As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 prepaid expenses totaled approximately $130,000 and $120,000, respectively and included prepaid manufacturing expenses for the Company’s clinical development candidate MLR recorded on the accompanying balance sheet.

Note 4 – Notes Payable and Convertible Promissory Notes

2019 Term Loans

During 2019, the Company entered into term loan subscription agreements with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company issued secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $5.7 million (collectively, the “2019 Term Loans”). The Company paid $707,000 in debt issuance costs which was recorded as a debt discount to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan using the straight-line method.

The promissory notes accrued interest at a rate of 12% per annum. Interest is payable quarterly with the first interest payment to be made on December 28, 2019, and each subsequent payment every three months thereafter. On December 28, 2019, the Company defaulted on the initial interest payment on the loan and the interest rate per annum increased to the default rate of 15%.

The unpaid principal balance of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, matured on June 28, 2020. The notes were secured by a first lien and security interest on all the assets of the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries. On June 28, 2020, the Company defaulted on the maturity date principal payment.

In June 26, 2021, the holders of the 2019 Term Loans agreed to subordinate their lien and security interest in the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the Security Agreement dated June 28, 2019 to the holders of the June 2021 convertible notes.

The Company recognized approximately $210,000 in interest expense related to the Notes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, the debt discount and issuance costs for this term loan were fully amortized.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $2.2 million of accrued interest on the notes included in accrued expenses and remains in default on the repayment of approximately $5.7 million in principal and $2.2 million in accrued interest on the 2019 Term Loans.

Convertible Promissory Notes

The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding convertible notes as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021:

Ten convertible notes with outstanding principal of approximately $1.5 million were in default as of March 31, 2022.

Secured Convertible Promissory Note – February 2020

On February 5, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited investors and issued the investors, (i) original issue discount Convertible Promissory Notes with a principal of $550,500 issued at a 10% original issue discount, for a total purchase price of $499,950, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to such number of shares of the common stock of the Company as is equal to the product obtained by multiplying 1.75 by the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the principal amount of the Notes by (B) the then applicable conversion price of the Notes. This results in a variable quantity of warrants at any point in time due to the variable conversion price of the Notes. (See Note 7)

The Convertible Notes matured on August 5, 2020. Prior to default, interest accrued to the Holders on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Notes at the rate of 10% per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and accrues daily. On June 15, 2020, the Company defaulted on certain covenants in the 2020 term loan and the interest rate reset to the default rate of 18%.

Until the Convertible Notes are no longer outstanding, the Convertible Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the noteholder. The conversion price is the lower of: (i) $0.50 per share of Common Stock and (ii) 70% of the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock on the trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted for trading for the prior ten (10) trading days (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations and similar events); provided, that if the Notes are not prepaid on or before May 5, 2020, then the conversion price shall be the lower of (x) 60% of the conversion price as calculated above or (y) $0.05 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations and similar events). The conversion price of the Convertible Notes shall also be adjusted as a result of subsequent equity sales by the Company, with customary exceptions.

The exercise price of the Warrants shall be equal to the conversion price of the Convertible Notes, provided, that on the date that the Convertible Notes are no longer outstanding, the exercise price shall be fixed at the conversion price of the Convertible Notes on such date, with the exercise price of the Warrants thereafter (and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise thereof) being subject to adjustment as set forth in the Warrants. The warrants have a 5-year term.

The Company recorded a discount related to the Warrants of approximately $322,000, which includes an allocation of original issue discount (“OID”) and issue costs of $30,000 and $53,000 based on the relative fair value of the instruments as determined by using the Monte-Carlo simulation model. The Company also recorded the remaining debt discount related to the convertible debt OID of approximately $21,000 and debt issuance costs of $38,000 using the relative fair value method to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan using the straight-line method. Total discounts recorded were approximately $381,000.

On March 19, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $25,900 of interest into 518,000 shares of common stock.

On July 29, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $27,500 of interest into 550,000 shares of common stock.

On August 16, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $25,000 of principal and interest into 500,000 shares of common stock.

On September 13, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $32,500 of principal and interest into 650,000 shares of common stock.

On October 4, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $26,250 of principal and interest into 525,000 shares of common stock.

On November 29, 2021, the holder of the Convertible Note converted $31,150 of principal and interest into 623,012 shares of common stock.

The total note principal and interest converted during the year ended December 31, 2021, was $168,300 and 3,366,012 common shares issued were valued at fair value based on the quoted trading prices on the conversion dates aggregating approximately $554,000 resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $386,000. In addition, derivative fair value of $245,000 relating to the portion of the Note converted was settled resulting in gain on extinguishment of approximately $245,000. The net loss on extinguishment was approximately $141,000.

On January 27, 2022, the conversion price of the notes and warrants was adjusted to be the lower of (x) 60% of the conversion price as calculated above or (y) $0.039 as a result of issuance of common stock for a convertible note conversion.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, the Company recognized approximately $25,000 in interest expense related to the note

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had accrued interest on the February 2020 Convertible Note of approximately $126,000.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company remains in default on the repayment of remaining principal of $457,359 and accrued interest on the February 2020 Convertible Notes. Upon demand for repayment at the election of the holder, the holder of the Convertible Note is due 140% of the aggregate of outstanding principal, interest, and other expenses due in respect of this Convertible Note. The 40% premium will be recorded once a demand occurs.

Secured Convertible Promissory Note – June 2020

On June 26, 2020, the Company issued to an existing investor in the Company a 10% original issue discount Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note with a principal of $58,055, for a purchase price of $52,500, net of the original issue discount of $5,555. The Convertible Note matured on December 26, 2020. Prior to default, interest accrued on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Note at the rate of 10% per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year. The Company incurred approximately $14,000 in debt issuance costs. On August 5, 2020, the Company defaulted on certain covenants in the loan and the interest rate reset to the default rate of 18%.

The Note is convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of common stock of the Company at the option of the noteholder at a conversion price of $0.02 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations and similar events); provided, that if an event of default has occurred under the Note, then the conversion price shall be 65% of the lowest closing bid price of the Company’s common stock as reported on its principal trading market for the twenty consecutive trading day period ending on (and including) the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the conversion notice was delivered. The conversion price shall also be adjusted for subsequent equity sales by the Company. Because the share price on the commitment date was in excess of the conversion price, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $50,000 related to this note that was credited to additional paid in capital and reduced the carrying amount. At the commitment date, the actual intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature was approximately $203,000. The discount recorded is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan using the straight-line method.

The obligations of the Company under the Note are secured by a senior lien and security interest in all of the assets of the Company and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Security Agreement dated June 26, 2020 by the Company in favor of the noteholder. In connection with the issuance of the Note, the holders of the secured promissory notes that the Company issued to select accredited investors between June 28, 2019 and August 5, 2019 in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $5.7 million agreed to subordinate their lien and security interest in the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the Security Agreement dated June 28, 2019 that such holders entered into with the Company and its subsidiaries to the security interest granted to the holder of the Note.

On January 27, 2022, the conversion price of the note was adjusted to the lower of 65% of the lowest closing bid price of the Company’s common stock as reported on its principal trading market for the twenty consecutive trading day period ending on (and including) the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the conversion notice was delivered or $0.039 as a result of issuance of common shares for a convertible note conversion.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, the Company recognized approximately $2,600 in interest related to the note. As of March 31, 2022, the debt discount and issuance costs for the note were fully amortized.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company remains in default on the repayment of principal of $58,055 and approximately $18,000 in accrued interest on the notes. Upon demand for repayment at the election of the holder, the holder of the note is due 140% of the aggregate of outstanding principal, interest, and other expenses due in respect of this Note. The 40% premium will be recorded once a demand occurs.

Secured Convertible Promissory Note – October 2020

On October 30, 2020, the Company issued to an existing investor in and lender to the Company a 10% original issue discount senior secured convertible promissory note with a principal of $111,111, for a purchase price of $100,000. The note is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at the option of the noteholder at a conversion price of $0.07 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations and similar events); provided, that if an event of default has occurred under the Note, then the conversion price shall be 70% of then conversion price. The conversion price of the notes is subject to anti-dilution price protection and on March 19, 2021, the conversion price of the notes was adjusted to $0.05 per share as a result of subsequent equity sales by the Company.

The obligations of the Company under the note are secured by a senior lien and security interest in all of the assets of the Company.

The Company recorded approximately $9,000 in debt issuance cost to be amortized over the life of the loan using the straight-line method.

Derivative Liabilities Pursuant to Convertible Notes and Warrants

In connection with the issuance of the unrelated party convertible notes (collectively referred to as “Notes”) and warrants (collectively referred to as “Warrants”), discussed above, the Company determined that the terms of certain Notes and Warrants contain an embedded conversion options to be accounted for as derivative liabilities due to the holder having the potential to gain value upon conversion and provisions which includes events not within the control of the Company. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable exceed the Company’s authorized share limit as of March 31, 2022, the equity environment was tainted and all convertible debentures and warrants were included in the value of the derivative. In accordance with ASC 815-40 –Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock, the embedded conversion options contained in the Notes and the Warrants were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance or on the reclassification date and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of the embedded conversion options and the warrants was determined using the Binomial Lattice valuation model. At the end of each period and on note conversion date or repayment or on the warrant exercise date, the Company revalues the derivative liabilities resulting from the embedded option.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2022, in connection with the issuance of the Notes, on the initial measurement dates, the fair values of the embedded conversion option of approximately $271,000 was recorded as derivative liabilities of which $163,000 was allocated as a debt discount and $108,000 as derivative expense.

At the end of the period, the Company revalued the embedded conversion option derivative liabilities. In connection with the initial valuations and these revaluations, the Company recorded a gain from the initial and change in the derivative liabilities fair value of approximately $776,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021.

During the three months period ended March 31, 2022, the fair value of the derivative liabilities was estimated at issuance and at March 31, 2022, using the Binomial Lattice valuation model with the following assumptions:

 Schedule of Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities Estimated Issuance and Valuation Mode

Other than the effect on the derivative valuation recognized in operations, there was no accounting effect to the ratchet adjustments of certain convertible notes to reduce the conversion price to $0.039 in January 2022 since all of the embedded conversion options in the convertible notes were treated as derivatives.

The intrinsic value of 79,316,071 warrants as of March 31, 2022, was approximately $2.7 million.

As discussed in Note 2 above, the Company has issued convertible notes and warrants with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock and various default provisions related to the payment of the notes in Company stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued under the convertible notes and warrants is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is therefore, indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable exceed the Company’s authorized share limit as of March 31, 2022, the equity environment was tainted and all convertible debentures and warrants were included in the value of the derivative as of that date. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the warrants were recorded as derivative liabilities. On March 31, 2022, the Company evaluated all outstanding warrants to determine whether these instruments are tainted and, due to reasons discussed above, all warrants outstanding were considered tainted and were therefore, accounted for as derivative liabilities.

Other than the effect on the derivative valuation recognized in operations, there was no accounting effect to the ratchet adjustments of certain warrants to reduce the conversion price to $0.039 in January 2022 since all of the embedded conversion options in the warrants were treated as derivatives.
