All of the shares of the Company owned by the Reporting Person were, at the time of their purchase, acquired for investment purposes in the ordinary course of business.

 

Effective as of April 21, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Company and the Reporting Person entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) relating to a promissory note of the Company dated January 31, 2020 issued by the Company in the principal amount of $2,115,000 (the “Note”). The Note bore twelve percent (12%) interest per annum and had a maturity date of September 30, 2020. The accrued interest on the Note through April 21, 2020 was $77,878.36, resulting in a total balance of $2,192,878.36 in principal and accrued interest on the Note as of such date. The Note was issued by the Company to Dr. Schwartz on January 31, 2020 in exchange for certain existing promissory notes, pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated January 31, 2020. These previous notes were issued in connection with numerous advances by Dr. Schwartz to the Company from November 30, 2018 through July 15, 2019, and the principal balance also included certain premiums.

 

Dr. Schwartz and the Company agreed that Dr. Schwartz would exchange the Note for newly issued shares of common stock, $0.01 par value of the Company (“Common Stock”) at market value pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Dr. Schwartz delivered the Note to the Company to be cancelled in exchange for 1,533,481 shares of newly issued Common Stock (the “Shares”) at an exchange rate of $1.43 per share, equal to the closing price of the Common Stock on April 21, 2020 prior to the execution of the Exchange Agreement. Dr. Schwartz agreed (i) not to sell or otherwise transfer 766,740 Shares (one-half of the Shares) for three (3) months after the date of the Exchange Agreement, and (ii) not to sell or otherwise transfer the remaining 766,741 Shares for six (6) months after the date of the Exchange Agreement.
