Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement
Pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated October 22, 2015
between the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and United Wireless Holdings, Inc. (“United Wireless”), the Company
issued its 10% secured convertible promissory notes due September 30, 2020 to United Wireless. The securities purchase agreement
and related agreements are described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The notes are currently held by Intelligent Partners, LLC (“Intelligent
Partners”), as transferee of United Wireless. Intelligent Partners is an affiliate of United Wireless. At September 30, 2020,
promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $4,672,810 were outstanding and, at September 30, 2020, accrued interest
on the notes was $117,780. The notes became due by their terms on September 30, 2020, and the Company did not make any payment
on account of principal of and interest on the notes on that date.
As previously reported, on October 1, 2020, the Company entered
into a standstill agreement with Intelligent Partners pursuant to which:
|
|
·
|
Intelligent Partners agreed that, provided that the Company pays Intelligent
Partners $117,780 of accrued interest on the note by October 2, 2020 (which payment was timely made), for a period commencing on
October 1, 2020 until the earlier of (i) October 22, 2020 or (ii) the date of any action by any person (other than Intelligent
Partners and its affiliates) relating to the assertion of a breach or default by the Company or any of its subsidiaries under any
agreement to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party (the “Standstill Period”), Intelligent Partners
and any person acting on behalf of Intelligent Partners will forebear from taking any action to enforce any of the rights they
have or may have under the Agreements between the Company and Intelligent Partners or under applicable law or otherwise in respect
of or arising out of the failure by the Company to pay the principal on the notes on the maturity date thereof or as a result of
any defaults or alleged defaults by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company under any of the agreement between the Company
and Intelligent Partners or under any applicable law or otherwise.
|
|
|
·
|
During the Standstill Period, the Company and Intelligent Partners
will seek to negotiate a mutually agreeable restructure agreement which provides for restructure of the Company’s obligations
under the notes and a modification of its obligations under the Company’s Agreements with Intelligent Partners.
|
On October 22, 2020, the Standstill Period was extended to
October 27, 2020, and, on October 27, 2020, the Standstill Period was further extended to October 31, 2020. On November 5, 2020,
the Company received the signed third amendment dated October 31, 2020 which further extended the Standstill Period to November
13, 2020. In connection with the extension, the Company made a payment of $20,000 in full satisfaction of any interest accrued
during the Standstill Period on the Company’s note to Intelligent Partners.
The Company intends to negotiate in good faith with respect
to a restructuring of its obligations to Intelligent Partners. However, the Company cannot give any assurance that it will be
successful in negotiating a restructure. In the event the Company is not able to negotiate a restructure, it may not be able to
continue in business and may be necessary for the Company to seek protection under the Bankruptcy Act.
