Notes Payable

Notes payable outstanding were $0 and $248,911 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Revolving Demand Promissory Note

On January 1, 2020, the Company issued a note (the “2020 Note”) in the face amount of $103,586 bearing 5.25% APR simple interest. The 2020 Note was scheduled to mature on January 1, 2021. Upon occurrence of certain conditions including the sale of a division of the Company or upon the date on which the Company closes on certain financings, the due date for some or all of the unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest may be accelerated. The Company assessed the terms and features of the 2020 Note and determined that none of the terms and features represented embedded derivatives that require bifurcation.

On June 30, 2020, the holder of the 2020 Note and the Company entered into an agreement to settle the 2020 Note early. As full consideration and settlement of the 2020 Note’s June 30, 2020 principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest in the amount of $106,334, the Company issued a new promissory note to the holder in the amount of $42,534 (the “Fifth Restated Note”) with substantially similar terms as the 2020 Note. In addition, the holder subscribed for the purchase of 11,594 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock at a subscription price of $63,800, or $5.50 per share. The issuance of shares under the subscription agreement and the issuance of the Fifth Restated Note satisfied the payoff of the 2020 Note without premium or discount.

The Fifth Restated Note was scheduled to mature on the earlier of a significant transaction, including an initial public offering, sale of substantially all assets or change of control, or January 1, 2021. The Company consummated its IPO on December 28, 2020 and the principal balance of the Fifth Restated Note plus accrued and unpaid interest was settled in full in cash on January 1, 2021.

Note Payable to CEO

On February 5, 2020 (the “Issue Date”), the Company issued a note payable to its CEO (the “CEO Note”) in the face amount of $245,250 bearing 1.59% APR simple interest in exchange for cash. The net proceeds of $245,250 were used as working capital by the Company. The note carried an original maturity of the earlier of the sixth month following the Issue Date or the date the Company has sufficient funds to repay the CEO Note. If an event of default occurred and continued, the Company agreed to issue a warrant to the holder with a strike price of $4.87 per share for a number of shares equal to 150% of the value of the loan. The Company assessed the terms and features of the CEO Note and determined that none of the terms and features represented embedded derivatives that require bifurcation.

On June 13, 2020, the holder of the CEO Note and the Company entered into a restated agreement (the “CEO Restated Note”). The CEO Restated Note in the amount of $248,911 extended the stated maturity date of the CEO Note from the earlier of the sixth month following the (original) Issue Date or the date the Company has sufficient funds to repay the note to the earlier of the 30th month following the (original) Issue Date or the date the Company has sufficient funds to repay the CEO Restated Note. The Issue Date, February 5, 2020, is unchanged. In addition, the interest rate was reduced, effective as of the Issue Date, from 1.59% APR to 0.25%. The CEO Restated Note also changed the exercise price of the warrant from $4.87 to $4.81 per share in the case of any default. The other provisions of the CEO Restated Note remained the same, in all material respects, to the CEO Note. The Company and its CEO agreed that the CEO Restated Note would not be repaid for a minimum of 12 months following the closing of its initial public offering. The principal balance of the CEO note was $248,911 at December 31, 2021. The principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest on the CEO Note were settled in full, without adjustment, in cash on January 3, 2022.

The Paycheck Protection Program Loan (the “PPP Loan”)

On May 4, 2020 the Company received $27,550 in loan proceeds as part of the Federal CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program (the “CARES Act” or “PPP”) with a 1% annual interest rate. The loan carried certain provisions to provide that if the Company expended not less than 60% of the loan proceeds on qualified payroll costs, the principal and accrued interest on the loan would be forgiven. The lender and the Small Business Administration determined that the Company met the contractual conditions for forgiveness of the entire PPP Loan plus accrued interest and it was forgiven in 2021.
