Material Changes and Related Party Transactions
The lender, Next Charging, LLC ("Next"), is a related party. Michael Farkas, the managing member of Next, is a beneficial owner of approximately 20% of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company is currently in the process of acquiring 100% of Next's membership interests via an Exchange Agreement, which has not yet closed. Upon default, the lender has the right to convert the debt into common stock at a price equal to the greater of the 10-day average VWAP or a floor price of $0.70.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
The Company has indicated a need for working capital, evidenced by this short-term loan. A significant contingency exists regarding the potential acceleration of debt if the Company successfully raises $3,000,000 in capital. Additionally, the default provisions include a 150% penalty multiplier on unpaid amounts and the right for the lender to convert debt to equity, which could result in significant dilution to existing shareholders. The filing notes that the acquisition of Next Charging, LLC has not yet been consummated.
