1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 19, 2018, we (BioLargo, Inc., the “Company”) received $280,000 and issued a promissory note and stock purchase warrant to Vernal Bay Investments, LLC (“Vernal”). The promissory note (the “Vernal Note”) matures January 5, 2019, and incurs interest at an annual rate of 12%. We may extend the maturity date of the Vernal Note by 60 days by giving written notice at any time prior to the maturity Date, and in such event the principal amount of the Note will increase by 10%, effective as of the date of the notice. The stock purchase warrant issued to Vernal (the “Vernal Warrant”) allows Vernal to purchase up to an aggregate 1,387,500 shares of our common stock for $0.25 per share until September 19, 2023. We may “call” the Vernal Warrant if the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $2.50 for 10 consecutive trading days and the shares underlying the warrant re subject to an effective registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If we call the warrant, Vernal would have 30 days to exercise its rights to purchase shares under the warrant or forever forfeit such rights.
On September 19, 2018, we received $120,000 and issued a promissory note and stock purchase warrant to Chappy Bean, LLC (“CB”). The promissory note (the “CB Note”) matures January 5, 2019, and incurs interest at an annual rate of 12%. We may extend the maturity date of the CB Note by 60 days by giving written notice at any time prior to the maturity Date, and in such event the principal amount of the Note will increase by 10%, effective as of the date of the notice. The stock purchase warrant issued to CB (the “CB Warrant”) allows CB to purchase up to an aggregate 600,000 shares of our common stock for $0.25 per share until September 19, 2023. We may “call” the CB Warrant if the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $2.50 for 10 consecutive trading days and the shares underlying the warrant re subject to an effective registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If we call the warrant, CB would have 30 days to exercise its rights to purchase shares under the warrant or forever forfeit such rights.
This current report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any shares of Common Stock, nor shall there be any sale of shares of Common Stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
The foregoing descriptions of the Vernal Note, the Vernal Warrant, the CB Note, and the CB Warrant are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, and each of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
