Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 3, 2023, Zivo Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “Subscriber”), pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the Subscriber a 10% promissory note with a principal amount of $1 million (the “Note”) and a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 390,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $2.91.

 

The Note bears interest at a fixed rate of 10% per annum and requires us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on October 2, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”), with an option to extend the Maturity Date an additional six months. There is no penalty on prepayment of the Note.

  

The Warrants is exercisable commencing on the date of issuance and expires on the three year anniversary of the issuance date. The exercise price and number of the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercising the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein.

 

The foregoing summary descriptions of the Subscription Agreement, the Note and the Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the forms of the Note, the Warrant and the Subscription Agreement, which are attached as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1 hereto, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

The net proceeds to the Company from the Private Placement will be used for general working capital. The Warrant has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration requirements.
