Debt Financings

 

On May 4, 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary OWP Ventures, Inc., borrowed $119,274 from Customers Bank (“Lender”), pursuant to a Promissory Note issued by OWP Ventures to Lender (the “PPP Note”). The loan was made pursuant to the Payroll Protection Program established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Note bears interest at 1.00% per annum, payable monthly beginning December 4, 2020, and is due on May 4, 2022. The PPP Note may be repaid at any time without penalty.

 

Under the Payroll Protection Program, the Company will be eligible for loan forgiveness up to the full amount of the PPP Note and any accrued interest. The forgiveness amount will be equal to the amount that the Company spends during the 24-week period beginning May 4, 2020 on payroll costs, payment of rent on any leases in force prior to February 15, 2020 and payment on any utility for which service began before February 15, 2020. The maximum amount of loan forgiveness for non-payroll expenses is 40% of the amount of the PPP Note. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness under the PPP Note in whole or in part.

 

The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in a claim for the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note.

 

On May 4, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $20,000 from Woodman Management in exchange for a demand note, bearing 6% interest per annum. The note was repaid in full on May 14, 2020.

 

On April 2, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $6,000 from MCKP Investments LLC in exchange for a demand note, bearing 6% interest per annum.
