NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
July 31, 2015
(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Jammin Java Corp. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K have been omitted. The accompanying balance sheet at July 31, 2015 has been derived from the audited balance sheet at January 31, 2015 contained in such Form 10-K.
 
As used in this Quarterly Report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Jammin Java” and the “Company” mean Jammin Java Corp., unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
 
Note 2. Going Concern and Liquidity
 
These financial statements have been prepared by management assuming that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company incurred a net loss of $2,165,731 for the six months ended July 31, 2015, and has an accumulated deficit of $26,209,564. The Company has a history of losses and has only recently begun to generate revenue as part of its principal operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the sale of its common stock. The Company will, in the future, need to secure additional funds through future equity sales or other fund raising activities. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
 
The Company’s ability to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon its ability to sell its products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through increased sales and decreased expenses, and obtain additional funds when needed. Management intends to increase sales by increasing the Company’s product offerings, expanding its direct sales force and expanding its domestic and international distributor relationships.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to increase sales, reduce expenses or obtain additional financing, if necessary, at a level to meet its current obligations. As a result, the opinion the Company received from its independent registered public accounting firm on its January 31, 2015 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph stating that there is a substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. Business Overview and Summary of Accounting Policies

Jammin Java, doing business as Marley Coffee, is a United States (U.S.)-based company that provides sustainably grown, ethically farmed and artisan roasted gourmet coffee through multiple U.S. and international distribution channels, using the Marley Coffee brand name. U.S. and international grocery retail channels have become the Company’s largest revenue channels, followed by online retail, office coffee services (referred to herein as OCS), food service outlets and licensing. The Company intends to continue to develop these revenue channels and achieve a leadership position in the gourmet coffee space by capitalizing on the global recognition of the Marley name through the licensing of the Marley Coffee trademarks.
 
Reclassifications. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation for comparative purposes.
 
Use of Estimates in Financial Statement Preparation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as certain financial statement disclosures. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of six months or less to be cash equivalents. As of July 31, 2015, the Company had $51,035 of cash equivalents. Additionally, no interest income was recognized for the six months ended July 31, 2015.
 
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is derived from the sale of coffee products and is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment to the customer. All revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the service or sale is completed; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized as the net amount estimated to be received after deducting estimated amounts for discounts, trade allowances and product terms. We record promotional and return allowances based on recent and historical trends. Promotional allowances, including customer incentive and trade promotion activities, are recorded as a reduction to sales based on amounts estimated being due to customers, based primarily on historical utilization and redemption rates.
 
The Company utilizes third parties for the production and fulfillment of orders placed by customers. The Company, acting as principal, takes title to the product and assumes the risks of ownership; namely, the risks of loss for collection, delivery and returns.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company does not require collateral from its customers with respect to accounts receivable. The Company determines any required allowance by considering a number of factors, including the terms for each customer, and the length of time accounts receivable are outstanding. Management provides an allowance for accounts receivable whenever it is evident that they become uncollectible. The Company has reserved an allowance of $98,866 for doubtful accounts at July 31, 2015. Because our accounts receivable are concentrated in a relatively few number of customers, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the collectability of our accounts receivable and our future operating results.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed using weighted average cost, which approximates actual cost, on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories on hand are evaluated on an on-going basis to determine if any items are obsolete or in excess of future needs. Items determined to be obsolete are reserved for. The Company provides for the possible inability to sell its inventories by providing an excess inventory reserve. As of July 31, 2015, the Company determined that no reserve was required.

Property and Equipment. Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Maintenance and repairs, as incurred, are charged to expense. Renewals and enhancements which extend the life or improve existing equipment are capitalized. Upon disposition or retirement of equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  For computers and leasehold improvements the useful life is 3 years and for furniture and equipment the useful life is 5 years.
 
F-5

 
Depreciation was $79,265 and $48,818 for the six months ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets consist primarily of a license agreement that was recorded at the estimated cost to acquire the asset. The license agreement is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable (see Note 5). Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the assets, the assets are written down to their estimated fair values. Management evaluated the carrying value of long-lived assets including the license and determined that no impairment existed at July 31, 2015.
  
Stock-Based Compensation. Pursuant to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee service, management utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.
 
Common stock issued for services to non-employees is recorded based on the value of the services or the value of the common stock, whichever is more clearly determinable. Whenever the value of the services is not determinable, the measurement date occurs generally at the date of issuance of the stock. In more limited cases, it occurs when a commitment for performance has been reached with the counterparty and nonperformance is subject to significant disincentives. If the total value of stock issued exceeds the par value, the value in excess of the par value is added to the additional paid-in-capital. We estimate volatility of our publicly-listed common stock by considering historical stock volatility.
 
Income Taxes. The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification No 740, Income Taxes. The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and on net operating loss carry forwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
Earnings or Loss Per Common Share. Basic earnings per common share equals net earnings or loss divided by the weighted average of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share includes the impact on dilution from all contingently issuable shares, including options, warrants and convertible securities. The common stock equivalents from contingent shares are determined by the treasury stock method. The Company incurred a net loss for the six months ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, basic and diluted earnings per share for such periods are the same because all potential common equivalent shares would be anti-dilutive including 4,487,500 “in the money” outstanding options which are exercisable as of July 31, 2015.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. Accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are being evaluated by the Company to determine whether adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” as part of its simplification initiative. The ASU changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense.  The Company recorded a Note payable on its balance sheet in the first quarter of 2015 of which no issuance costs were incurred.  The Company has also entered into pending financing arrangements which have not yielded funding currently, these costs are carried as a prepaid expense on the Company’s balance sheet at July 31, 2015.  The Company recognizes interest expense timely and reduces its debt liability as remittance occurs.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies
 
On July 28, 2014, Shane Whittle, individually, a former significant shareholder and officer and director of the Company (“Whittle“) filed a complaint against the Company in the District Court, City and County of Denver, State of Colorado (Case No. 2014-CV-032991 Division: 209). The complaint alleged that Whittle entered into a consulting agreement with the Company for which the Company failed to make payments and that Rohan Marley, as both a director of the Company and of Marley Coffee Canada, Inc., additionally agreed that, as part of Whittle’s consulting compensation, the Company would assume a debt owed by Marley Coffee Canada to Whittle. The cause of action set forth in the complaint includes breach of contract. Damages claimed by Whittle included $60,000 under the consulting agreement and $19,715 related to payments assumed by the Company. Effective on March 31, 2015, the Company and Mr. Whittle entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release of Claims (the “Settlement“), pursuant to which the parties agreed to dismiss their claims associated with the District Court, City and County of Denver, State of Colorado (Case No. 2014-CV-032991 Division: 209), lawsuit described above. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Whittle $80,000 which was accrued as of January 31, 2015 (to be paid in equal payments of $10,000 per month beginning on April 1, 2015), the Company agreed to withdraw from a joinder in connection with the Federal Action pending between the parties (and certain other parties) as described below, the parties provided each other mutual releases and the parties agreed to mutually dismiss, with prejudice, their claims.

In a separate case, on September 30, 2014, Whittle individually, and derivatively on behalf of Marley Coffee LLC (“MC LLC“) filed a complaint against Rohan Marley, Cedella Marley, the Company, Hope Road Merchandising, LLC, Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, and Marley Coffee Estate Limited in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado (Civil Action No. 2014-CV-2680). The complaint alleges that Whittle entered into a partnership with Rohan Marley, to sell premium coffee products branded after the name and likeness of Rohan Marley. The causes of action set forth in the complaint include, among others, racketeering activity, trademark infringement, breach of fiduciary duty, civil theft, and civil conspiracy (some of which causes of action are not directly alleged against the Company), which are alleged to have directly caused Whittle and Marley Coffee LLC substantial financial harm. Damages claimed by Whittle and MC LLC include economic damages to be proven at trial, profits made by defendants, treble damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and pre and post judgment interest. Subsequently, all but the civil conspiracy claim against the Company was dismissed and the court ordered Whittle to amend his complaint to provide only for an alleged claim of breach of fiduciary duty (not against the Company) and conspiracy claims as an individual (not on a derivative basis). The outcome of this lawsuit cannot be predicted with any degree of reasonable certainty. In the event the matter is not settled, the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against Whittle’s and MC LLC’s claims.

Note 12 – Subsequent Events
 
Convertible Note with JSJ Investments Inc.

On September 9, 2015, we sold a 12% Convertible Note to JSJ Investments Inc. (“JSJ” and the “JSJ Convertible Note”) in the amount of $275,000. Amounts owed under the JSJ Convertible Note accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon an event of default). The JSJ Convertible Note is payable by us on demand by JSJ at any time after March 6, 2016. We have the right to prepay the JSJ Convertible Note (a) for an amount equal to 135% of the then balance of such note until the 180th day following the date of the note, and (b) for an amount equal to 150% of the balance of such note subsequent to the maturity date (provided the holder consents to such payment after maturity).

The JSJ Convertible Note and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into the Company’s common stock at any time. The conversion price of the JSJ Convertible Note is 60% (a 40% discount) to the third lowest intra-day trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to any conversion date of the note. In the event we do not issue the holder any shares due in connection with a conversion within three business days, we are required to issue the holder additional shares equal to 25% of the conversion amount, and an additional 25% of such shares for each additional five business days beyond such fourth business day that such failure continues. In the event we do not have a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock to allow for the conversion of the note, the discount rate (40%) is increased by an additional 5%.

In connection with the sale of the note, we agreed to pay $5,000 of JSJ’s legal fees.
 
The JSJ Convertible Note contains standard and customary events of default, including in the event we fail to timely file any and all reports due with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, JSJ can demand that we immediately repay 150% of the outstanding balance of the JSJ Convertible Note together with accrued interest (and default interest, if any).

Pursuant to the terms of the JSJ Convertible Note, JSJ agreed not to engage in any short sales or hedging transactions of our common stock. At no time may the JSJ Convertible Note be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would result in JSJ and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may be increased by JSJ to up to increases to 9.99% upon not less than 61 days prior written notice to us.

The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the JSJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JSJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JSJ Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC

On September 14, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 14, 2015 (the “Typenex SPA”) with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC (“Typenex”). Pursuant to the Typenex SPA, the Company issued to Typenex a convertible promissory note (the “Typenex Note”) in the principal amount of $1,005,000, deliverable in four tranches as described below.

The Typenex Note has a term of 20 months and an interest rate of 10% per annum (22% upon an event of default).  The net proceeds to the Company from the Typenex Note were $1,005,000, in the form of: (a) an initial tranche of $250,000 in cash (gross proceeds of $255,000, less $5,000 in expense reimbursements), and (b) three promissory notes of $250,000 each (collectively, the “Investor Notes”). Typenex may elect, in its sole discretion, to fund one or more of the Investor Notes. Absent such an election by Typenex, the Investor Notes will not result in cash proceeds to, or an obligation to repay on the part of, the Company. Each of the Investor Notes accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum until paid (provided that all amounts due under the Investor Notes may be offset against amounts we owe Typenex in Typenex’s sole discretion), and as such, we do not anticipate owing any interest on the Investor Notes until such notes are funded by Typenex.  Each of the Investor Notes are secured by a Membership Interest Pledge Agreement entered into by Typenex for our benefit.

 
F-11

 
Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date and on the same day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, so long as any amount is outstanding under the Typenex Note, the Company is required to pay to Typenex installments of principal equal to $75,000 (or such lesser principal amount is then outstanding), plus the sum of any accrued and unpaid interest. Payments of each installment amount may be made in cash, subject to the terms of the note. Alternatively, Typenex or the Company may elect to convert an installment amount into Common Stock as described below.

Beginning six (6) months after the Closing Date, Typenex may convert the balance of the Typenex Note, or any installment or portion thereof, utilizing the conversion price calculation set forth below. Generally, the conversion price will be $0.30 per share; however, in the event the Company’s market capitalization falls below $3 million, then the conversion price is the lower of (a) $0.30 per share, and (b) the Market Price. The “Market Price” is calculated by applying a discount of 40% (provided that under certain events the discount may be reduced to up to 60%, upon the occurrence of certain events (with a reduction of 5% per event) such as the value of common stock (as calculated in the note) declining below $0.10 per share; the Company not being DWAC eligible; the Company’s common stock not being DTC eligible; or the occurrence of any major default (as described in the note)), to the average of the three (3) lowest intra-day trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion. The Company may also elect to make payment of installments in the form of equity on substantially the same terms, subject to the terms and conditions of the Typenex Note, and Typenex’s right in certain cases to require a certain portion of such payment to be paid in cash or stock. Additionally, 20 days after shares issued upon redemption of the note are eligible to be freely traded by Typenex (as described in the note), there is a required true up, whereby Typenex is required to be issued additional shares in the event the trading price of the Company’s common stock has declined from the time of original issuance to the date such shares are ‘free trading’ as described in the Typenex Note.

The Company has the right to prepay the Typenex Note under certain circumstances, subject to payment of a 35% prepayment penalty during the first six months the note is outstanding and 50% thereafter.

If, at any time that the Typenex Note is outstanding, the Company sells or issues any common stock or other securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock for a price per share that is less than the conversion price applicable under the Typenex Note, then such lower price will apply to all subsequent conversions by Typenex for a period of 20 trading days.

The Typenex Note includes customary and usual events of default. In the event of a default, the Typenex Note may be accelerated by Typenex. The outstanding balance would be immediately due and payable we are required to repay Typenex additional amounts (including the value of the amount then due in common stock, at the highest intraday trading price of the amount then due under the note) and/or liquidated damages in addition to the amount owed under the Typenex Note. In addition, we owe certain fees and liquidated damages to Typenex if we fail to timely issue shares of common stock under the Typenex Note.
 
Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares Pursuant to the Typenex Note, unless the market capitalization of the Company’s common stock is less than $10,000,000, in which case Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
 
 
F-12

 
Amounts owed by us under the Typenex Note is secured by a first priority security interest granted to Typenex pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into with Typenex, in each of the Investor Notes.
 
The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the Typenex Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the Typenex Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the Typenex Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with JMJ Financial
 
On September 16, 2015, we sold JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of up to $900,000 (the “JMJ Convertible Note”). The initial amount received in connection with the sale of the JMJ Convertible Note was $350,000, and a total of $385,000 is currently due under the JMJ Convertible Note (not including the interest charge described below), as all amounts borrowed under the note include a 10% original issue discount. Moving forward, JMJ may loan us additional funds (up to $900,000 in aggregate) at our request, provided that JMJ has the right in its sole discretion to approve any future request for additional funding. Each advance under the JMJ Convertible Note is due two years from the date of such advance, with the amount initially funded under the note due on September 16, 2017.
 
The JMJ Convertible Note (including principal and accrued interest and where applicable other fees) is convertible into our common stock, at any time, at the lesser of $0.75 per share or 65% (a 35% discount) of the two lowest closing prices of our common stock in the 20 trading days prior to the date of any conversion, provided that if we are not DWAC eligible at the time of any conversion an additional 10% discount applies, and in the event our common stock is not DTC eligible at the time of any conversion, an additional 5% discount applies. The JMJ Convertible Note provides that unless we and JMJ agree in writing, JMJ is not eligible to convert any amount of the note into common stock which would result in JMJ owning more than 4.99% of our common stock.
 
A one-time interest charge of 12% was applied to the principal amount of the note, which remains payable regardless of the repayment (or conversion) date of the note.
 
Until 180 days after the date of the note, we are able to prepay the note assuming we prepay all outstanding principal together with a penalty of 40% of such amount, interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any), and the original issuance discount due thereon; and after 160 days, we are not able to prepay the note without JMJ’s written approval.
 
We agreed that we would reserve 25 million shares of common stock for conversion of the note. In the event we fail to deliver shares within four days of the date of any conversion by JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ $2,000 per day in penalties.
 
The JMJ Convertible Note provides for customary events of default including, our failure to timely make payments under the JMJ Convertible Note when due, our entry into bankruptcy proceedings, our failure to file reports with the SEC, our loss of DTC eligibility for our common stock, and the investor’s loss of the ability to rely on Rule 144. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an event of default, as described in greater detail in the JMJ Convertible Note, and at the election of JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ, either (i) the amount then owed under the note divided by the applicable conversion price, on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is lower), multiplied by the volume weighted average price on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is higher), or (ii) 150% of the principal amount of the note, plus all of the unpaid interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any) and other amounts due. Any amount not paid when due accrues interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full. JMJ is not required to provide us any written notice in order to accelerate the amounts owed under the JMJ Convertible Note in the event of the occurrence of an event of default.
 
For so long as the JMJ Convertible Note is outstanding JMJ agreed not to effect any “short sales” of our common stock.
 
The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the JMJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JMJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JMJ Note is converted into common stock.

Overview
 
We provide premium roasted coffee and specialty coffee on a wholesale level to the service, hospitality, office coffee service and big box store markets, as well as to a variety of other business channels. Specifically, we currently provide award winning sustainably grown, ethically-farmed and artisan roasted gourmet coffee through multiple United States and international distribution channels. We intend to develop a significant share of these markets and achieve a leadership position by capitalizing on the global recognition of the “Marley” brand name. We hope to capitalize on the guidance and leadership of our Chairman, Rohan Marley, and to increase our sales through the marketing of products using the likeness of, and reflecting the personality of, Mr. Marley. Additionally, through a licensing agreement with the family of the late reggae performer, Robert Nesta Marley, professionally known as Bob Marley (which family members include Rohan Marley, our Chairman and the son of Bob Marley)(as described below), we are provided the worldwide right to use the name “Marley Coffee” and reasonably similar variations thereof.

We believe the key to our growth is a multichannel distribution and sales strategy. Since August 2011, we have been introducing a wide variety of coffee products through multiple distribution channels using the Marley Coffee brand name. The main channels of revenue for the Company are now and are expected to continue to be domestic retail in both grocery and away from home (for example, consumption at the office and on the go), international distribution, and online retail.
 
In order to market our products in these channels, we have developed a variety of coffee products in varying formats. The Company offers an entire line of coffee in whole bean and ground form with varying sizes including 2.5 ounce (oz), 8oz, 12oz and 2 pound (lbs) sizes. The Company also offers a “single serve” solution with its compostable Single-Serve Pods for Bunn® and other pod-based home and office brewers. The Company recently launched its Marley Coffee RealCup; compatible cartridges, for use in most models of Keurig®’s K-Cup brewing system.

License Agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road

On September 13, 2012, the Company entered into a fifteen (15) year license agreement (renewable for two additional fifteen (15) year terms thereafter in the option of the Company) with an effective date of August 7, 2012 with Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, a Bahamas international business company (“Fifty-Six Hope Road” and the “FSHR License Agreement”). Rohan Marley, our Chairman, owns an interest in Fifty-Six Hope Road. Pursuant to the FSHR License Agreement, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company a worldwide, exclusive, non-transferable license to utilize the “Marley Coffee” trademarks (the “Trademarks”) in connection with (i) the manufacturing, advertising, promotion, sale, offering for sale and distribution of coffee in all its forms and derivations, regardless of portions, sizes or packaging (the “Exclusive Licensed Products”) and (ii) coffee roasting services, coffee production services, and coffee sales, supply, distribution and support services, provided that the Company may not open retail coffee houses utilizing the Trademarks. Fifty-Six Hope Road owns and controls the intellectual property rights in and to the late reggae performer, Robert Nesta Marley, professionally known as Bob Marley, including the Trademarks. In addition, Fifty-Six Hope Road granted the Company the right to use the Trademarks on advertising and promotional materials that pertain solely to the sale of coffee cups, coffee mugs, coffee glasses, saucers, milk steamers, machines for brewing coffee, espresso and/or cappuccino, grinders, water treatment products, tea products, chocolate products, and ready-to-use (instant) coffee products (the “Non-Exclusive Licensed Products”, and together with the Exclusive Licensed Products, the “Licensed Products”). Licensed Products may be sold by the Company pursuant to the FSHR License Agreement through all channels of distribution, provided that, subject to certain exceptions, the Company cannot sell the Licensed Products by direct marketing methods (other than the Company’s website), including television, infomercials or direct mail without the prior written consent of Fifty-Six Hope Road. Additionally, FSHR has the right to approve all Licensed Products, all advertisements in connection therewith and all product designs and packaging. The agreement also provides that FSHR shall own all rights to any domain names (including marleycoffee.com), incorporating the Trademarks.
 
In consideration for the foregoing licenses, the Company agreed to pay royalties to Fifty-Six Hope Road in an amount equal to 3% of the net sales of all Licensed Products on a quarterly basis. In addition, such royalty payments are to be deferred during the first 20 months of the term of the FSHR License Agreement, and such deferred payments shall be paid on a quarterly-basis thereafter until paid in full. For the three months ended July 31, 2015, $72,171, and for the six months ended  July 31, 2015, $131,284, in royalties due to Fifty-Six Hope Road were incurred on sales. From inception to July 31, 2015, the Company has incurred royalties of $586,650 to Fifty-Six Hope Road.

Mother Parkers License Agreement

On May 20, 2014, we entered into an Amended and Restated License Agreement with Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee Inc. (“Mother Parkers” and the “MP Agreement”), which amended and restated a prior license agreement entered into between the parties in October 2011. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue comes from sales to and through Mother Parkers. As described in greater detail in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on April 30, 2014, the Company also entered into a Subscription Agreement with Mother Parkers in April 2014, pursuant to which Mother Parkers purchased 7,333,529 units from the Company for $2.5 million, each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock; and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at $0.51135 per share for a term of three years.

Pursuant to our relationship with Mother Parkers, Mother Parkers produces Marley Coffee RealCups for us. For direct sales of RealCups (e.g., in jurisdictions in which Mother Parkers does not have exclusive rights as described below) we purchase the RealCups from Mother Parkers and handle all aspects of selling, merchandising and marketing products to retailers. Pursuant to the MP Agreement, the Company granted Mother Parkers the exclusive right to manufacture, process, package, label, distribute and sell single serve hard capsules (which excludes single serve soft pods) (the “Product”) on behalf of the Company in Canada, the United States of America and Mexico. The rights granted under the MP Agreement are subject to certain terms and conditions of our license agreement with Fifty-Six Hope Road. Pursuant to the MP Agreement, Mother Parkers is required to, among other things, supply all ingredients and materials, labor, manufacturing equipment and other resources necessary to manufacture and package the Product, develop coffee blends set forth in specifications provided by the Company from time to time, procure coffee beans in the open market (or from the Company’s designee) at favorable prices, set prices for the Product in a manner that is competitive in the market place and deliver Product logo/brand designs to the Company for approval prior to manufacturing any such Product. We are required to, among other things, cross-promote the Product, use Product images and marketing materials provided by Mother Parkers to promote the Product, and provide the services of Rohan Marley (our Chairman) at a minimum of five locations per year at the Company’s sole cost and expense. There are no minimum volume or delivery requirements under the MP Agreement. Pursuant to the MP Agreement, Mother Parkers agreed to pay us a fee of $0.06 per capsule for Talkin’ Blues products and $0.04 per capsule for all other Product sold by Mother Parkers under the terms of the agreement, which payments are due in monthly installments. The MP Agreement has a term of five years, provided that it automatically renews thereafter for additional one year periods if not terminated by the parties, provided further that we are not able to terminate the agreement within the first 12 months of the term of the agreement and if we terminate the agreement or take any action that lessens or diminishes Mother Parkers’ exclusive rights under the agreement during months 12 through 36 of the agreement, we are required to pay Mother Parkers a fee of $600,000 and reimburse Mother Parkers for any out of pocket costs incurred by Mother Parkers for inventory and other materials that are unsalable or unusable after such termination. We also receive revenues through the sale by Mother Parkers of our roast coffee in Canada, whereby we receive a portion of the gross revenues of such sales.

Sales and Distribution Agreements and Understandings
 
The Company has entered into informal sales arrangements, not documented by definitive agreements, with several coffee distributors, beverage services and retailers around the world.
 
In Canada, the Company has distribution channels directly to certain retailers such as London Drugs and Best Buy. Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee Inc. is the Company’s distributor for the food service segment, which sells to restaurant chains like Original Joe’s and Elephant and Castle. Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee also brings the Company’s products into retailers such as Loblaw’s, Sobey’s, ID Foods, COOP and Metro.

In the United States, for the commercial break room segment, the Company uses its national sales representatives, National Coffee Service & Vending (NCS&V), to distribute to various retailers and distributors.

In addition to distributions through NCS&V, the Company conducts sales directly to retailers as well as to distributors. In order to get in front of retail and distributor accounts, we rely on the experience and relationships of our staff to acquire both groups. Our marketing efforts are comprised of in store promotions, in store demos, external marketing programs, public relations, social media, tradeshows and general advertising.

Within the U.S. grocery and specialty retail segment, the Company utilizes two national brokerage companies to represent, market and merchandise its products. The Company works with Alliance Sales & Marketing, a private food broker based in Charlotte, North Carolina, to increase its new market penetration nationally in the grocery and natural foods retail sector.
 
Within the U.S. grocery and specialty retail segment, the Company’s products are distributed through several distributors such as UNFI, Kehe, C&S and DPI and we also distribute directly to certain retailers.

The Company has strengthened its online presence by selling through a multitude of online retailers such as Amazon.com, Cooking.com, coffeeicon.com, ecscoffee.com, officedepot.com and coffeewiz.com.

Products, Plan of Operations and Business Growth

In fiscal 2015, we established a national grocery distribution network, increased our brand awareness and strengthened our international presence. We believe fiscal 2016 is the breakout year for the Company and we forecast to be EBITDA positive by the end of the year, based on our projected sales volumes. We anticipate the first two quarters of fiscal 2016 we will have negative EBITDA (we had negative EBITDA of approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended July 31, 2015), but hope to be EBITDA positive in the third and fourth quarters, and show positive EBITDA in our audited results of operations for the year ended January 31, 2016.
 
We prepared and organized the operations of the Company to scale to $40 million in revenue without materially increasing our staffing needs from where they are currently by fiscal 2017.

The Company is organized around our three pillars of growth, which are domestic grocery, international and ecommerce.
 
Domestic Grocery

Domestic grocery is the core focus of the Company with the strategy of continuing to expand into key markets and gaining new accounts and building on the base of accounts we have already. Within the U.S. grocery and specialty retail segment, the Company’s products are distributed through several distributors such as UNFI, Kehe, C&S and DPI and we also distribute directly to certain customers. We sell to retailers such as Safeway (Randalls), Krogers, HEB, Wegmans, Target, Jewel-Osco, Market Basket, Whole Foods, Winn Dixie Bi-Lo, Ahold, Hannafords, Albertsons, Shaw’s and Fairways, and Fresh and Easy. During the past year we have expanded our distributor relationships nationally in the United States. We expect our ongoing discussions with retailers will enable us to place our products in more chains throughout the year and we continue to seek to expand our product placement with grocery retailers and distributors throughout the United States and internationally.

Over the course of the last year, we gained distribution in over 7,200 stores in the United States distributing approximately 5.2 different types of products per store and have authorization in approximately 10,000 stores. Throughout fiscal 2016, while we will still look to gain additional distribution, we are not pursuing it at the same pace we did during the past 18 months. Our objective for our existing distribution is to increase our turn rate (velocity), and build brand awareness to drive further growth.

Our primary driver to enhance our brand and increase our turn rate on shelves will be the launch of our Recyclable RealCup™. Around approximately July of fiscal 2016, we plan to launch a new version of the Marley Coffee RealCup™ capsule that will be compatible with the Keurig Green Mountain K2.0. The recyclable RealCup™ will utilize a recyclable capsule that is accepted by many curbside recycling programs. The technology and intellectual property is owned by Mother Parkers, however we plan to be the first and primary super premium product to launch in market amongst Mother Parkers portfolio of brands.
 
Based on our current distribution of approximately 7,200 shelves in the U.S. and an average of three SKUs (Stock Keeping Units) of RealCups™ per store, if we can get an additional customer to purchase one SKU per store, per week, within our existing distribution, we believe we can generate approximately ~$6.7 million in additional revenue for the 2016 fiscal year. Our next objective is to get all nine Recyclable RealCup™ Marley Coffee SKUs within our current distribution. SKUs or Stock Keeping Units are a store’s or catalog’s product and service identification code, often portrayed as a machine-readable bar code that helps items be tracked for inventory.

We believe that our recyclable RealCup™ capsule will be one of the most innovative and sustainable single serve products to hit the market in calendar 2015. Keurig Green Mountain (formerly Green Mountain Coffee Roasters), the largest company in the single serve space in North America has expressed their belief that there should be a recyclable solution for K-Cups, however they have only set a 2020 target for their commitment to making 100% of their K-Cup packs recyclable.
 
International

Our international business is one of the key components of our revenues. For our international accounts, we rely on first in class operators to take our brand to market and handle all of the distribution and marketing for the products. We provide brand support to our international accounts. We currently have key distribution in several countries, which include Canada, the United Kingdom, South Korea and Chile. These countries primarily sell to the food service industry, which includes hotels, restaurants and cafes. From their success in food service, they have expanded distribution into retail distribution. Mother Parkers takes our products to market in Canada through both a licensing agreement and buy-sell relationship. Our distributors in South Korea and Chile buy coffee from us here in the U.S. at wholesale prices and then resell the coffee to their customers. Our U.K. distributor roasts and packs Company approved coffee and resells it to customers throughout Europe. In the second half of fiscal 2016, we plan on launching a Nespresso© compatible capsule for markets throughout the world.

The Company also does business with coffee machine manufacturers such as Hamilton Beach and Remington Coffee by selling them various products such as 8 ounce bags of coffee, fractional packs or RealCup units as samples that come inside boxes of coffee which are sold as packages to end buyers. This provides greater exposure for the Company.

The International Coffee Organization recently reported that it expects global coffee demand to rise 25% by 2021. We believe that we are in a strong position to capitalize on that growth and our goal is to continue finding top-tier operators like the ones we have in place in Canada, South Korea, Chile and the United Kingdom.

Online

During the fourth quarter of calendar 2014, we launched an innovative Coffee of the Month subscription service as well an online retail platform at https://shop.marleycoffee.com/. We anticipate this to be a key revenue driver in the upcoming year. The Company also sells to other online operators such as Amazon.com, Cooking.com, coffeeicon.com, ecscoffee.com, officedepot.com and coffeewiz.com.

Commitment to Reduce Cash Compensation

Throughout fiscal 2015, the Company issued shares of common stock in consideration for services rendered to its officers, directors and employees in an effort to maximize its cash on hand and improve liquidity. In fiscal 2016, the Company plans to pay the salaries of its officers and employees in cash, provided that where possible, the Company intends to continue to use common stock in lieu of cash consideration, and has continued to pay certain of its employees in stock instead of cash during fiscal 2016. As the Company continues to grow it will need to raise additional cash in order to maintain its growth and fund its operations. If the Company is unable to access additional capital moving forward, it will hurt our ability to maintain growth and possibly jeopardize our ability to maintain our current operations. We may not be able to increase sales, reduce expenses or obtain additional financing, if necessary, at a level to meet our current obligations to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company is focused on growing revenue while working to lower cost of sales and operating expenses, with the ultimate goal of generating net income.

Recent Transactions:

On July 9, 2015, with an effective date of July 1, 2015, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Black Rock Beverages, LLC (“BRB”), pursuant to which we sold our Black Rock Beverage division and related assets to BRB (the “Sale Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, BRB agreed to pay us $300,000, with $200,000 payable on the closing date of the transaction (July 15, 2015), and $100,000 payable in 24 equal monthly installments, provided that if BRB’s average sales do not meet a minimum of $50,000 per month during each of the first six months following the closing, the aggregate amount of $100,000 in payments due is reduced by $5,000 for each month such $50,000 monthly minimum is not met. Additionally, we agreed to continue to pay the salary of one of our employees acquired in our original acquisition of the Black Rock Beverage division in August 2013 for three months and to continue to cover the rent, for five months, on a warehouse located on Lipan St. in Denver, Colorado, and BRB agreed to assume all of our capital and vehicle leases. We also agreed to a six month freeze on increasing any cost of goods purchased by BRB for products sold through the Black Rock Beverage operations. The Sale Agreement contains standard and customary indemnification and confidentiality covenants and representations of the Company.
 
On July 28, 2015, we entered into a Supply and Distribution Agreement with C&V International Co., Ltd. (“C&V”), pursuant to which we agreed to supply C&V coffee and Marley Coffee branded products for distribution by C&V, as our exclusive distributor, in South Korea (a) through the food service, online, grocery retail and convenience business channels; and (b) to Marley Coffee branded Cafes operating in South Korea (which cafes are owned and operated by third parties and with which we have no affiliation, other than in connection with the supply of coffee and Marley Coffee branded products being sold at such cafes). There are six current Marley Coffee branded cafes open in South Korea, with the goal of expanding that number to thirty within the next three years. C&V was also granted a right of first refusal (subject to certain terms and conditions described in the agreement), for a period of two years from our entry into the agreement (subject to the requirement to negotiate in good faith to extend such right of first refusal period prior to the expiration thereof), to become our exclusive distributor in each country in Asia that we may choose to distribute products to in the future.

The agreement has a term through September 1, 2024, automatically renewable for additional one year terms thereafter on each of the five anniversaries of the end of the initial term, unless either party gives the other at least 90 days’ notice of their intention not to renew. The agreement may also be terminated by either party upon the breach of any material term of the agreement by the other party, provided the breaching party is given fifteen business days to cure any breach, and such breach is not timely cured.

C&V agreed to pay us certain pre-agreed to prices for the products sold and we agreed to sell such products to C&V at competitive price levels. We are also required to meet certain minimum quantity and quality requirements in connection with the supply of coffee and products under the agreement and C&V is required to purchase all coffee and products from us, subject to certain rights to acquire third party coffee, only to the extent that we fail to meet certain quantity and quality requirements set forth in the agreement and further fail to timely cure such failures.

The agreement contains usual and customary representations, covenants, indemnification rights, limits on liability and confidentiality requirements.

Other income (expense). Other expense for the six months ended July 31, 2015 was $32,537 and other income for the six months ended July 31, 2014 was $4,202.  Other expense increased due to the sale of our business division as mentioned in footnote 10 to the unaudited financial statements included herein.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through the issuance of our common stock.
 
The following table presents details of our working capital and cash and cash equivalents:

Cash
  $ 51,035     $ 443,189     $ (392,154 )
 
At July 31, 2015, we had total assets of $2,383,995 and total liabilities of $3,852,182. Our current sources of liquidity include our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash from operations. For the six months ended July 31, 2015, we generated gross sales of $5,929,206 and we had a net loss of $2,165,731.
 
Total current assets of $1,457,924 as of July 31, 2015 included cash of $51,035, accounts receivable of $1,354,598, inventory of $2,670, other current assets of $3,000 and $46,621 of prepaid expenses.
 
We had total assets as of July 31, 2015 of $2,383,995 which included the total current assets of $1,457,924, $285,457 of property and equipment, net, $622,648 of intangible assets and $17,966 of other assets.
 
We had total liabilities of $3,852,182 as of July 31, 2015, which were solely current liabilities and included $3,403,140, of accounts payable, including $191,374 of royalties payable to Fifty-Six Hope Road, a related party, for the last three fiscal quarters ($72,171 in accrued royalties and $119,203 in accounts payable), relating to amounts due for the first and second quarters of fiscal 2016 in connection with the FSHR License Agreement, $2,054,926 owed to our roaster Mother Parkers, $10,439 owed to Marley Coffee Ltd. (which is 25% owned by our Chairman and largest stockholder, Rohan Marley) for green coffee purchases, and $809 owed to the House of Marley, a related party due to its affiliation with Fifty-Six Hope Road.  The liabilities also included $153,310 of accrued expenses, and $223,561 of notes payable in connection with short term financing agreement.

As of the filing of this report, we believe that our cash position, funds we may raise through future offerings, and the revenues we generate will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for approximately the next twenty-four months based on the pace of our planned activities projecting a 50% increase in accounts receivable.
 
In the fourth fiscal quarter of 2014 and first three fiscal quarters of 2015, we established an annual promotional calendar for our retailers and distributors. Promotions range from discounts at the store level to in-store tastings. To date, promotions and trial programs, especially at some of our larger accounts such as Kroger, Safeway (Randalls) and HEB, are increasing product velocity. Additionally we are constantly evaluating cost effective tools to generate brand awareness and trials outside of the retail environment. We plan to continue driving these efforts with the goal of seeing revenues from organic growth increase quarter-to-quarter throughout the remainder of fiscal 2016.  We are also committed to giving back and we, in conjunction with Mother Parkers, has agreed to donate $0.01 to Water Wise for every Marley Coffee RealCup capsule sold until early 2017.  Water Wise, which Rohan Marley serves as the lead ambassador of, seeks to improve the living conditions and water filtration systems for those living in the Sidamo area of Ethiopia, a coffee growing region from which we source a portion of our coffee beans. In total, the Company has donated approximately $140,000 to date to this project.
 
We are excited about our other business lines as well. Our away from home business has been growing, especially in the Denver, Colorado area. Its growth helps feed our grocery retail business at a minor cost. Our international growth is picking up pace as well. Europe is growing, as has our commitment to foster the region. Both Chile and South Korea still remain some of the most exciting markets for us as our distributors and partners in that region have done a phenomenal job marketing and growing the brand.
 
The overwhelming majority of our sales are outside of the distribution of Jamaican Blue Mountain (JBM) beans and products. Nonetheless, one of our main concerns for fiscal 2016 is a shortage in JBM. Hurricane Sandy and coffee leaf rust impacted the production output of JBM for 2014 and 2015. Jamaica and the industry expect a slow recovery in output. This tightening of supplies caused JBM prices to increase by about 40% in 2014/2015. We are committed to ensuring our supply chain and providing our customers JBM. We are diligently working to secure more JBM as the market we created for it continues to expand. There still is a high demand for JBM in North America, but limited supply and rising costs may hurt sales. We are currently working to address the supply issues and while we believe we will be in a far better position throughout fiscal 2016 with respect to JBM availability, if we are unable to purchase a sufficient quantity of high-quality coffee beans, we may not be able to fulfill demand for our coffee, our revenue may decrease and our ability to expand our business may be negatively impacted.

The goal for the end of fiscal 2016 is to become EBITDA positive while increasing revenues. We will remain flexible in the implementation of our business strategy and will revise downward our funding requirements and further reduce our selling and marketing and our general and administrative expenses to a level that is in line with our financial means but consistent with our vision.

Our ability to meet our obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon our ability to sell our products directly to end users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through increased sales and decreased expenses and obtain additional funds when needed, similar to our sale of the various convertible notes described below.

Although our sales and revenues have increased significantly on an annual basis, the Company incurred a net loss of $10,280,985 and $6,704,030 for the years ended January 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively and had an accumulated deficit of $24,043,833 at January 31, 2015, compared to a net loss of $2,165,731 and $4,928,275 for the six months ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and an accumulated deficit of $26,209,564, as of July 31, 2015. In addition, the Company has a history of losses and has not generated net income from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the sale of common stock and debt financing. The Company’s ability to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business is dependent upon its ability to sell its products directly to end-users and through distributors, establish profitable operations through increased sales and decreased expenses, and obtain additional funds when needed. We may not be able to increase sales or reduce expenses to a level necessary to meet our current obligations or continue as a going concern. As a result, the opinion the Company received from its independent registered public accounting firm on its January 31, 2015 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we become unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets, and may realize significantly less than the values at which they are carried on our financial statements, and stockholders may lose all or part of their investment in our common stock. The accompanying financial statements do not contain any adjustments for this uncertainty.
 
In addition to the above, the Company’s largest supplier, Mother Parkers, previously agreed to extend the Company’s required terms of payment from thirty days to one hundred and twenty days from the date product is received, which provided the Company approximately $1.8 million of short term capital, however like with all distributors and manufacturers, if we extend past the 120 days or fail to pay such amounts, it could have a material adverse affect on our cash flow and operations.

Compared to the corresponding period in 2014, net cash used in operating activities decreased by $1,499,150 for the six months ended July 31, 2015. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended July 31, 2015 was primarily due to $2,165,731 of net loss and $323,919 of accrued expenses offset by $635,010 of share based employee compensation and $910,240 of accounts payable.

 Investing Activities
 
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the six months ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, was solely due to the purchase and sale of property and equipment.

Financing Activities
 
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2014, net cash provided by financing activities decreased by approximately $2,271,474 for the six months ended July 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to the $2,500,000 of common shares sold to Mother Parkers for cash in the prior period (as described below), offset by $223,561 of financing on short term debt during the current period.
 
From time to time, we may attempt to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which our business grows, with corresponding demands for working capital and expansion capacity. We could be required, or may elect, to seek additional funding through public or private equity, debt financing or bank financing.
 
 Funding and Financing Agreements

Mother Parker’s Investment
 
On April 24, 2014, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee Inc. (“Mother Parkers” and the “Subscription”). Pursuant to the Subscription, Mother Parkers purchased 7,333,529 units from the Company, each consisting of (a) one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”); and (b) one (1) warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants” and collectively with the Shares, the “Units”) at a price per Unit equal to the fifty day weighted-average price per share of the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB market, for the fifty trading days ending March 7, 2014 (the date the parties first discussed the transactions contemplated by the Subscription), which was $0.3409 (the “Per Unit Price”). The total purchase price paid for the Units was $2,500,000.

Pursuant to the Subscription, we provided Mother Parkers a right of first refusal for a period of two (2) years following the Subscription, to purchase up to 10% of any securities (common stock, options or warrants exercisable for common stock) we propose to offer and sell in a public or private equity offering (the “ROFO Securities”), exercisable for 48 hours from the time we provide Mother Parkers notice of such proposed sale of ROFO Securities (subject where applicable to Mother Parkers meeting any prerequisites to participation in the offering). The right of first refusal does not apply to the issuance of (a) shares of common stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company in consideration for services, (b) securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the date of the Subscription, (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by the directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall provide the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital, and (d) any debt securities (other than any debt securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of common stock). The right of first refusal is not assignable and expires upon the first to occur of two (2) years following the date of the Subscription and the date Mother Parkers enters into or takes certain bankruptcy related actions.
 
The Warrants have an exercise price equal to 150% of the Per Unit Price ($0.51135 per share), a term of three years and prohibit Mother Parkers from exercising such Warrants to the extent such exercise would result in the beneficial ownership of more than 9.99% of the Company’s common stock, subject to Mother Parkers’ right to waive such limitation with 61 days prior written notice.

Line of Credit

The Company entered into an unsecured Revolving Line of Credit Agreement with Colorado Medical Finance Services, LLC, dba Gold Gross Capital LLC on June 9, 2015, with an effective date of February 16, 2015. The line of credit allows the Company the right to borrow up to $500,000 from the lender from time to time. On March 26, 2015, the lender advanced $250,000 to us under the terms of the line of credit. Amounts owed under the line of credit are to be memorialized by revolving credit notes in the form attached to the line of credit, provided that no formal note has been entered into to advance amounts borrowed to date. Amounts borrowed under the line of credit accrue interest at the rate of 17.5% per annum and can be repaid at any time without penalty. A total of 10% of the interest rate is payable in cash and the other 7.5% of the interest rate is payable in cash, or at the option of the lender and with our consent, or by a reduction in amounts owed to us by the lender in connection with the sale of coffee or other promotional activities. The line of credit expires, and all amounts are due under the line of credit on September 26, 2016. The line of credit contains customary events of default, and upon the occurrence of an event of default the lender can suspend further advances and require the Company to declare the entire amount then owed immediately due, subject to a 10 day period pursuant to which we have the right to cure any default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default the amounts owed under the line of credit bear interest at the rate of 20% per annum. Proceeds from the line of credit can be solely used for working capital purposes. The lender has no relationship with the Company or its affiliates. As of July 31, 2015, the Company had borrowed a total of $250,000 under the Line of Credit.

Convertible Note with JSJ Investments Inc.

On September 9, 2015, we sold a 12% Convertible Note to JSJ Investments Inc. (“JSJ” and the “JSJ Convertible Note”) in the amount of $275,000. Amounts owed under the JSJ Convertible Note accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon an event of default). The JSJ Convertible Note is payable by us on demand by JSJ at any time after March 6, 2016. We have the right to prepay the JSJ Convertible Note (a) for an amount equal to 135% of the then balance of such note until the 180th day following the date of the note, and (b) for an amount equal to 150% of the balance of such note subsequent to the maturity date (provided the holder consents to such payment after maturity).

The JSJ Convertible Note and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into the Company’s common stock at any time. The conversion price of the JSJ Convertible Note is 60% (a 40% discount) to the third lowest intra-day trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to any conversion date of the note. In the event we do not issue the holder any shares due in connection with a conversion within three business days, we are required to issue the holder additional shares equal to 25% of the conversion amount, and an additional 25% of such shares for each additional five business days beyond such fourth business day that such failure continues. In the event we do not have a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock to allow for the conversion of the note, the discount rate (40%) is increased by an additional 5%.

In connection with the sale of the note, we agreed to pay $5,000 of JSJ’s legal fees.
 
The JSJ Convertible Note contains standard and customary events of default, including in the event we fail to timely file any and all reports due with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, JSJ can demand that we immediately repay 150% of the outstanding balance of the JSJ Convertible Note together with accrued interest (and default interest, if any).

Pursuant to the terms of the JSJ Convertible Note, JSJ agreed not to engage in any short sales or hedging transactions of our common stock. At no time may the JSJ Convertible Note be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would result in JSJ and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may be increased by JSJ to up to increases to 9.99% upon not less than 61 days prior written notice to us.

The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the JSJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JSJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JSJ Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC

On September 14, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 14, 2015 (the “Typenex SPA”) with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC (“Typenex”). Pursuant to the Typenex SPA, the Company issued to Typenex a convertible promissory note (the “Typenex Note”) in the principal amount of $1,005,000, deliverable in four tranches as described below.

 
14

 
The Typenex Note has a term of 20 months and an interest rate of 10% per annum (22% upon an event of default).  The net proceeds to the Company from the Typenex Note were $1,000,000, in the form of: (a) an initial tranche of $250,000 in cash (gross proceeds of $255,000, less $5,000 in expense reimbursements), and (b) three promissory notes of $250,000 each (collectively, the “Investor Notes”). Typenex may elect, in its sole discretion, to fund one or more of the Investor Notes. Absent such an election by Typenex, the Investor Notes will not result in cash proceeds to, or an obligation to repay on the part of, the Company. Each of the Investor Notes accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum until paid (provided that all amounts due under the Investor Notes may be offset against amounts we owe Typenex in Typenex’s sole discretion), and as such, we do not anticipate owing any interest on the Investor Notes until such notes are funded by Typenex.  Each of the Investor Notes are secured by a Membership Interest Pledge Agreement entered into by Typenex for our benefit.

Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date and on the same day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, so long as any amount is outstanding under the Typenex Note, the Company is required to pay to Typenex installments of principal equal to $75,000 (or such lesser principal amount is then outstanding), plus the sum of any accrued and unpaid interest. Payments of each installment amount may be made in cash, subject to the terms of the note. Alternatively, Typenex or the Company may elect to convert an installment amount into Common Stock as described below.

Beginning six (6) months after the Closing Date, Typenex may convert the balance of the Typenex Note, or any installment or portion thereof, utilizing the conversion price calculation set forth below. Generally, the conversion price will be $0.30 per share; however, in the event the Company’s market capitalization falls below $3 million, then the conversion price is the lower of (a) $0.30 per share, and (b) the Market Price. The “Market Price” is calculated by applying a discount of 40% (provided that under certain events the discount may be reduced to up to 60%, upon the occurrence of certain events (with a reduction of 5% per event) such as the value of common stock (as calculated in the note) declining below $0.10 per share; the Company not being DWAC eligible; the Company’s common stock not being DTC eligible; or the occurrence of any major default (as described in the note)), to the average of the three (3) lowest intra-day trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion. The Company may also elect to make payment of installments in the form of equity on substantially the same terms, subject to the terms and conditions of the Typenex Note, and Typenex’s right in certain cases to require a certain portion of such payment to be paid in cash or stock. Additionally, 20 days after shares issued upon redemption of the note are eligible to be freely traded by Typenex (as described in the note), there is a required true up, whereby Typenex is required to be issued additional shares in the event the trading price of the Company’s common stock has declined from the time of original issuance to the date such shares are ‘free trading’ as described in the Typenex Note.

The Company has the right to prepay the Typenex Note under certain circumstances, subject to payment of a 35% prepayment penalty during the first six months the note is outstanding and 50% thereafter.

If, at any time that the Typenex Note is outstanding, the Company sells or issues any common stock or other securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock for a price per share that is less than the conversion price applicable under the Typenex Note, then such lower price will apply to all subsequent conversions by Typenex for a period of 20 trading days.
 
 
The Typenex Note includes customary and usual events of default. In the event of a default, the Typenex Note may be accelerated by Typenex. The outstanding balance would be immediately due and payable we are required to repay Typenex additional amounts (including the value of the amount then due in common stock, at the highest intraday trading price of the amount then due under the note) and/or liquidated damages in addition to the amount owed under the Typenex Note. In addition, we owe certain fees and liquidated damages to Typenex if we fail to timely issue shares of common stock under the Typenex Note.

Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares Pursuant to the Typenex Note, unless the market capitalization of the Company’s common stock is less than $10,000,000, in which case Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares.

 
15

 
Amounts owed by us under the Typenex Note is secured by a first priority security interest granted to Typenex pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into with Typenex, in each of the Investor Notes.

The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the Typenex Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the Typenex Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the Typenex Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with JMJ Financial

On September 16, 2015, we sold JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of up to $900,000 (the “JMJ Convertible Note”). The initial amount received in connection with the sale of the JMJ Convertible Note was $350,000, and a total of $385,000 is currently due under the JMJ Convertible Note (not including the interest charge described below), as all amounts borrowed under the note include a 10% original issue discount. Moving forward, JMJ may loan us additional funds (up to $900,000 in aggregate) at our request, provided that JMJ has the right in its sole discretion to approve any future request for additional funding. Each advance under the JMJ Convertible Note is due two years from the date of such advance, with the amount initially funded under the note due on September 16, 2017.

The JMJ Convertible Note (including principal and accrued interest and where applicable other fees) is convertible into our common stock, at any time, at the lesser of $0.75 per share or 65% (a 35% discount) of the two lowest closing prices of our common stock in the 20 trading days prior to the date of any conversion, provided that if we are not DWAC eligible at the time of any conversion an additional 10% discount applies, and in the event our common stock is not DTC eligible at the time of any conversion, an additional 5% discount applies. The JMJ Convertible Note provides that unless we and JMJ agree in writing, JMJ is not eligible to convert any amount of the note into common stock which would result in JMJ owning more than 4.99% of our common stock.
 
A one-time interest charge of 12% was applied to the principal amount of the note, which remains payable regardless of the repayment (or conversion) date of the note.

Until 180 days after the date of the note, we are able to prepay the note assuming we prepay all outstanding principal together with a penalty of 40% of such amount, interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any), and the original issuance discount due thereon; and after 160 days, we are not able to prepay the note without JMJ’s written approval.

We agreed that we would reserve 25 million shares of common stock for conversion of the note. In the event we fail to deliver shares within four days of the date of any conversion by JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ $2,000 per day in penalties.

The JMJ Convertible Note provides for customary events of default including, our failure to timely make payments under the JMJ Convertible Note when due, our entry into bankruptcy proceedings, our failure to file reports with the SEC, our loss of DTC eligibility for our common stock, and the investor’s loss of the ability to rely on Rule 144. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an event of default, as described in greater detail in the JMJ Convertible Note, and at the election of JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ, either (i) the amount then owed under the note divided by the applicable conversion price, on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is lower), multiplied by the volume weighted average price on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is higher), or (ii) 150% of the principal amount of the note, plus all of the unpaid interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any) and other amounts due. Any amount not paid when due accrues interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full. JMJ is not required to provide us any written notice in order to accelerate the amounts owed under the JMJ Convertible Note in the event of the occurrence of an event of default.

For so long as the JMJ Convertible Note is outstanding JMJ agreed not to effect any “short sales” of our common stock.

The goal is for the Company to utilize this debt as growth capital to help accelerate projects that generate revenue.  We hope to repay the JMJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JMJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JMJ Note is converted into common stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As part of our on-going business, we have not participated in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities (“SPEs”), which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of July 31, 2015, we are not involved in any material unconsolidated SPEs.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation. On January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718 which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee service. We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock based compensation at the date of grant, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, or determined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.

We estimated volatility by considering historical stock volatility. We have opted to use the simplified method for estimating the expected term of stock options equal to the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term.
 
Revenue Recognition. All revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service or sale is complete, the price is fixed or determinable and ability to collect is reasonably assured. Revenue is derived from the sale of coffee products and is recognized on a gross basis upon shipment. The Company utilizes a third party for the production and fulfillment of orders placed by customers. Customers order directly from the Company and accordingly, the Company acts as a principal, takes title to the products, and has the risks and rewards of ownership, such as the risk of loss for collection, delivery and returns.
 
 
17

 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets include a license agreement that was recorded at the estimated cost to acquire the asset (See Note 4 to the financial statements included in this report). The license agreement is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of the assets, the assets are written down to their estimated fair values. Management evaluated the carrying value of the license and determined that no impairment existed at July 31, 2015 or 2014.
 
Accounts Receivable allowance. A provision for doubtful accounts is provided based on a combination of historical experience, specific identification and customer credit risk where there are indications that a specific customer may be experiencing financial difficulties.
 
Inventory Reserves. We estimate any required write-downs for inventory obsolescence by examining our inventories on a quarterly basis to determine if there are indicators that the carrying values could exceed net realizable value. Indicators that could result in additional inventory write-downs include age of inventory, damaged inventory, slow moving products and products at the end of their life cycles. While significant judgment is involved in determining the net realizable value of inventory, we believe that inventory is appropriately stated at the lower of cost or market.
 
Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance. We follow the provisions of ASC 740 relating to uncertain tax provisions and have commenced analyzing filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As a result of adoption, no additional tax liabilities have been recorded. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in certain state jurisdictions. The Company has not been subjected to tax examinations for any year and the statute of limitations has not expired. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax benefits or consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and related accruals, deferred tax assets and liabilities. These include establishing a valuation allowance related to the ability to realize certain deferred tax assets. To the extent future taxable income against which these assets may be applied is not sufficient, some portion or all of our recorded deferred tax assets would not be realizable.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 For the six months ended July 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no accounting standards or interpretations issued that are expected to have a material impact on our financial position, operations or cash flows.
 
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard which will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. The new standard is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, among other things, companies will generally need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. The accounting standard will be effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2017. The standard may be adopted using a full retrospective or a modified retrospective (cumulative effect) method. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating this standard and have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“ASU 2014-12”). The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. The guidance will be effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, if any, on its financial statements.
 
Management is evaluating the significance of the recent accounting pronouncement ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (subtopic 205-40); disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, and has not yet concluded whether the pronouncement will have a significant effect on the Company’s future financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting and Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
Based on our evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses at January 31, 2015:
 
   
(1)
lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors capable to oversee the audit function;

   
(2)
inadequate segregation of duties due to limited number of personnel, which makes the reporting process susceptible to management override;

   
(3)
insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and

   
(4)
ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
 
 
 
19

 
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (1) through (4) above did not have an effect on the Company’s financial reporting during the six months ended July 31, 2015.

We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, moving forward, at such time as we are able to raise additional funding, we plan to hire additional outside accounting personnel and take action to consolidate check writing and financial controls. Additionally, as soon as funds are available, we plan to make a determination as to whether it is in the Company’s best interest to (1) appoint one or more outside directors to our Board of Directors to be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources; (3) hire independent third parties to provide expert advice; and (4) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
 
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended July 31, 2015, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
 
From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business.

On July 28, 2014, Shane Whittle, individually, a former significant shareholder and officer and director of the Company (“Whittle”) filed a complaint against the Company in the District Court, City and County of Denver, State of Colorado (Case No. 2014-CV-032991 Division: 209). The complaint alleged that Whittle entered into a consulting agreement with the Company for which the Company failed to make payments and that Rohan Marley, as both a director of the Company and of Marley Coffee Canada, Inc., additionally agreed that, as part of Whittle’s consulting compensation, the Company would assume a debt owed by Marley Coffee Canada to Whittle. The cause of action set forth in the complaint includes breach of contract. Damages claimed by Whittle included $60,000 under the consulting agreement and $19,715 related to payments assumed by the Company.

Effective on March 31, 2015, the Company and Mr. Whittle entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release of Claims (the “Settlement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to dismiss their claims associated with the District Court, City and County of Denver, State of Colorado (Case No. 2014-CV-032991 Division: 209), lawsuit described above. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Whittle $80,000 which was accrued as of January 31, 2015 (to be paid in equal payments of $10,000 per month beginning on April 1, 2015), the Company agreed to withdraw from a joinder in connection with the Federal Action pending between the parties (and certain other parties) as described below, the parties provided each other mutual releases and the parties agreed to mutually dismiss, with prejudice, their claims.

On September 30, 2014, Whittle individually, and derivatively on behalf of Marley Coffee LLC (“MC LLC”) filed a complaint against Rohan Marley, Cedella Marley, the Company, Hope Road Merchandising, LLC, Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Limited, and Marley Coffee Estate Limited in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado (Civil Action No. 2014-CV-2680).

The complaint alleges that Whittle entered into a partnership with Rohan Marley, the son of the late reggae music legend Robert Nesta Marley p/k/a Bob Marley, to sell premium coffee products branded after the name and likeness of Rohan Marley. The causes of action set forth in the complaint include, among others, racketeering activity, trademark infringement, breach of fiduciary duty, civil theft, and civil conspiracy (some of which causes of action are not directly alleged against the Company), which are alleged to have directly caused Whittle and Marley Coffee LLC substantial financial harm.

Damages claimed by Whittle and MC LLC include economic damages to be proven at trial, profits made by defendants, treble damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and pre and post judgment interest.

Subsequently, all but the civil conspiracy claim against the Company was dismissed and the court ordered Whittle to amend his complaint to provide only for an alleged claim of breach of fiduciary duty (not against the Company) and conspiracy claims as an individual (not on a derivative basis). The outcome of this lawsuit cannot be predicted with any degree of reasonable certainty. In the event the matter is not settled, the Company intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against Whittle’s and MC LLC’s claims.
 
On December 15, 2014, a complaint was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of State of California, for the County of Los Angeles – Central Division (Case Number: BC566749), pursuant to which Sky Consulting Group, Inc. (“Sky”), made various claims against the Company, Mr. Tran, the Company’s President and Director, Marley C&V International, and various other parties. The complaint alleged causes of action for breach of contract, fraud, negligent representation, intentional interference with contractual relationship and negligent interference with contractual relationship, relating to a May 2013 coffee distributor agreement between the Company and Sky, which provided Sky the right to sell Company branded coffee products in Korea. The suit seeks damages, punitive damages, court costs and attorney’s fees. The Company subsequently filed a motion to compel arbitration pursuant to the terms of the agreement, which was approved by the court on April 7, 2015. The parties subsequently entered arbitration in connection with the lawsuit.  On September 8, 2015, the parties entered into a mutual settlement and release agreement, whereby Sky agreed to return 130,480 shares of common stock to the Company and stop distributing our products, displaying our tradenames or using our intellectual property; the parties agreed to each dismiss their claims/lawsuits; and each party provided the other a general release of all outstanding claims.  As of the date of this report, the shares have not yet been returned to the Company and the claims/lawsuits have not been dismissed, however we are confident that the shares will be returned to us (which shares we plan to cancel upon receipt) and the claims/lawsuits will be dismissed shortly after the date this report is filed.

In addition to the above, we may become involved in other material legal proceedings in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2015, filed with the Commission on May 1, 2015, other than as disclosed below, and investors are encouraged to review such risk factors prior to making an investment in the Company.

The Company owes a significant amount of money to Mother Parkers.

As of July 31, 2015, the Company owed a significant amount of accounts payable, and the Company owed approximately $2 million, to Mother Parkers in consideration for distribution services rendered.  Mother Parkers has previously advised us that if we are not able to pay them amounts due past the 120 day net terms they have provided us, they will not provide additional credit and will stop distributing our products.  As of the filing date of this statement our debt with Mother Parkers is below 120 days. As described above, Mother Parkers is one of our largest distributors, representing over half of our revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2015, and in the event they stop distributing our products our results of operations will be materially adversely effected and we may be forced to curtail or abandon our business operations.  We recently raised funding through the sale of convertible notes, as described above, to pay down a portion of the amounts we owed to Mother Parkers, provided that in the future we may be required to raise additional debt or equity funding (including in order to repay such convertible notes), which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.
 
We have various outstanding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market.

As described under Item 5. Other Information, below, we sold various convertible promissory notes in September 2015. The conversion prices of the convertible notes initially vary from between 60% to 65% of the market value of our common stock, subject in many cases to anti-dilution and other rights which may result in such conversion prices declining. As a result, any conversion of the convertible notes and sale of shares of common stock issuable in connection with the conversion thereof may cause the value of our common stock to decline in value, as described in greater detail under the Risk Factors below. Notwithstanding the above, we plan to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.

The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes may depress the market price of our common stock.

If sequential conversions of the convertible notes and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and as a result, the holders of the convertible notes will be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares in connection with conversions, which shares could then be sold in the market, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, to the detriment of our investors. The shares of common stock which the convertible notes are convertible into may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144. As a result, the sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.

In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. The convertible notes will be convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market as described above, and such discount to market provides the holders with the ability to sell their common stock at or below market and still make a profit. In the event of such overhang, the note holders will have an incentive to sell their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease. Notwithstanding the above, we plan to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes will cause immediate and substantial dilution.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the holders of the convertible notes may ultimately receive and sell the full amount of shares issuable in connection with the conversion of such convertible notes. Although certain of the convertible notes may not be converted if such conversion would cause the holders thereof to own more than 4.99% or 9.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent the holders of the convertible notes subject to such restrictions from converting some of their holdings, selling those shares, and then converting the rest of its holdings, while still staying below the 4.99%/9.99% limit. In this way, the holders of the convertible notes could sell more than any applicable ownership limit while never actually holding more shares than the applicable limits allow. If the holders of the convertible notes choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock. Notwithstanding the above, we plan to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.
 
22

 
The continuously adjustable conversion price feature of the convertible notes could require us to issue a substantially greater number of shares, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

Our existing stockholders will experience substantial dilution upon any conversion of the convertible notes. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to a discount to the market value of our common stock as described above. As a result, the number of shares issuable could prove to be significantly greater in the event of a decrease in the trading price of our common stock, which decrease would cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. As sequential conversions and sales take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and if so, the holders of the convertible notes would be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares, which could then be sold, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, which would cause additional dilution to our existing stockholders and would likely cause the value of our common stock to decline.
 
We could face significant penalties for our failure to comply with the terms of our outstanding convertible notes.

As described under Item 5. Other Information, below, we sold various convertible promissory notes in September 2015.  The various notes contain positive and negative covenants and customary events of default including requiring us in many cases to timely file SEC reports. Some of our SEC reports have not been filed on a timely basis to date and in the event we fail to timely file our SEC reports in the future, or any other events of defaults occur under the notes, we could face significant penalties and/or liquidated damages and/or the conversion price of such notes could be adjusted downward significantly, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition, or cause any investment in the Company to decline in value or become worthless.

We currently owe a significant amount of money under our outstanding convertible notes.

As of the date of this filing we owed approximately $0.75 million under the outstanding convertible promissory notes described under Item 5. Other Information, below. We do not have sufficient funds to repay such notes and if we are unable to raise additional funds in the future to repay such amounts, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, such failure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations and cause any investment in the Company to decline in value or become worthless.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
 
On June 30, 2015, our Board of Directors approved and adopted the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). The 2015 Plan has not been approved by the stockholders of the Company.  The Company also entered into First Amendments to Amended and Restated Employment Agreements with Brent Toevs, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Anh Tran, the Company’s President (the “First Amendments”).

The First Amendments, (1) extended the termination date of Mr. Toevs’ and Mr. Tran’s employment agreements (as amended and restated) for another three years, which agreements now expire on September 10, 2019; (2) provided that all unvested options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock granted to Mr. Toevs and Mr. Tran in August 2013 under and pursuant to our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, which originally had an exercise price of $0.46 per share, would be re-priced to have an exercise price of $0.195 per share, provided no other terms of the options were changed except for the re-pricing of 1,333,334 of the 2 million options previously granted; and (3) provided for the grant to each of Mr. Toevs and Mr. Tran of options to purchase 2 million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.195 per share, with options to purchase 666,666 shares vesting on June 30, 2016 and options to purchase  666,667 shares vesting on June 30, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

The Board of Directors also re-confirmed the $10,000 per month compensation payable to our Chairman, Rohan Marley, re-priced Mr. Marley’s 1,333,334 unvested stock options granted to Mr. Marley in August 2013, under and pursuant to our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, to have identical terms as the options held by Mr. Toevs and Mr. Tran which were re-priced in connection with their entries into the First Amendments, as described above, and granted Mr. Marley new stock options to purchase 2 million shares of common stock which have identical terms as the stock options granted to Mr. Toevs and Mr. Tran in connection with their entries into the First Amendments (described above).

We believe that the grants described above were exempt from registration pursuant to (a) Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and/or (b) Rule 506 of the Securities Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. With respect to the transactions described above, no general solicitation was made either by us or by any person acting on our behalf. The transactions were all privately negotiated, and none involved any kind of public solicitation. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing grants and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. All recipients (a) were “accredited investors;” (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act; and/or (c) were officers and directors of the Company.
 
In September 2015, we sold the JSJ Convertible Note, the Typenex Convertible Note and the JMJ Convertible Note.  Each of such notes is convertible into our common stock at a discount to the trading price of our common stock as described in greater detail below under Item 5. Other Information. We claim an exemption from registration for the issuances of such convertible notes pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipients were (a) “accredited investors”; and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the recipients acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances and grant and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

Convertible Note with JSJ Investments Inc.

On September 9, 2015, we sold a 12% Convertible Note to JSJ Investments Inc. (“JSJ” and the “JSJ Convertible Note”) in the amount of $275,000. Amounts owed under the JSJ Convertible Note accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon an event of default). The JSJ Convertible Note is payable by us on demand by JSJ at any time after March 6, 2016. We have the right to prepay the JSJ Convertible Note (a) for an amount equal to 135% of the then balance of such note until the 180th day following the date of the note, and (b) for an amount equal to 150% of the balance of such note subsequent to the maturity date (provided the holder consents to such payment after maturity).

The JSJ Convertible Note and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into the Company’s common stock at any time. The conversion price of the JSJ Convertible Note is 60% (a 40% discount) to the third lowest intra-day trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to any conversion date of the note. In the event we do not issue the holder any shares due in connection with a conversion within three business days, we are required to issue the holder additional shares equal to 25% of the conversion amount, and an additional 25% of such shares for each additional five business days beyond such fourth business day that such failure continues. In the event we do not have a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock to allow for the conversion of the note, the discount rate (40%) is increased by an additional 5%.

In connection with the sale of the note, we agreed to pay $5,000 of JSJ’s legal fees and to use $27,500 of the amount received in connection with the sale of the note to pay accrued legal fees of our securities counsel.

The JSJ Convertible Note contains standard and customary events of default, including in the event we fail to timely file any and all reports due with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, JSJ can demand that we immediately repay 150% of the outstanding balance of the JSJ Convertible Note together with accrued interest (and default interest, if any).

Pursuant to the terms of the JSJ Convertible Note, JSJ agreed not to engage in any short sales or hedging transactions of our common stock. At no time may the JSJ Convertible Note be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would result in JSJ and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may be increased by JSJ to up to increases to 9.99% upon not less than 61 days prior written notice to us.

We hope to repay the JSJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JSJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders will suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JSJ Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC

On September 14, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 14, 2015 (the “Typenex SPA”) with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC (“Typenex”). Pursuant to the Typenex SPA, the Company issued to Typenex a convertible promissory note (the “Typenex Note”) in the principal amount of $1,005,000, deliverable in four tranches as described below.

The Typenex Note has a term of 20 months and an interest rate of 10% per annum (22% upon an event of default).  The net proceeds to the Company from the Typenex Note were $1,000,000, in the form of: (a) an initial tranche of $250,000 in cash (gross proceeds of $255,000, less $5,000 in expense reimbursements), and (b) three promissory notes of $250,000 each (collectively, the “Investor Notes”). Typenex may elect, in its sole discretion, to fund one or more of the Investor Notes. Absent such an election by Typenex, the Investor Notes will not result in cash proceeds to, or an obligation to repay on the part of, the Company. Each of the Investor Notes accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum until paid (provided that all amounts due under the Investor Notes may be offset against amounts we owe Typenex in Typenex’s sole discretion), and as such, we do not anticipate owing any interest on the Investor Notes until such notes are funded by Typenex.  Each of the Investor Notes are secured by a Membership Interest Pledge Agreement entered into by Typenex for our benefit.
 
25

 
Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date and on the same day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, so long as any amount is outstanding under the Typenex Note, the Company is required to pay to Typenex installments of principal equal to $75,000 (or such lesser principal amount is then outstanding), plus the sum of any accrued and unpaid interest. Payments of each installment amount may be made in cash, subject to the terms of the note. Alternatively, Typenex or the Company may elect to convert an installment amount into Common Stock as described below.

Beginning six (6) months after the Closing Date, Typenex may convert the balance of the Typenex Note, or any installment or portion thereof, utilizing the conversion price calculation set forth below. Generally, the conversion price will be $0.30 per share; however, in the event the Company’s market capitalization falls below $3 million, then the conversion price is the lower of (a) $0.30 per share, and (b) the Market Price. The “Market Price” is calculated by applying a discount of 40% (provided that under certain events the discount may be reduced to up to 60%, upon the occurrence of certain events (with a reduction of 5% per event) such as the value of common stock (as calculated in the note) declining below $0.10 per share; the Company not being DWAC eligible; the Company’s common stock not being DTC eligible; or the occurrence of any major default (as described in the note)), to the average of the three (3) lowest intra-day trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion. The Company may also elect to make payment of installments in the form of equity on substantially the same terms, subject to the terms and conditions of the Typenex Note, and Typenex’s right in certain cases to require a certain portion of such payment to be paid in cash or stock. Additionally, 20 days after shares issued upon redemption of the note are eligible to be freely traded by Typenex (as described in the note), there is a required true up, whereby Typenex is required to be issued additional shares in the event the trading price of the Company’s common stock has declined from the time of original issuance to the date such shares are ‘free trading’ as described in the Typenex Note.

The Company has the right to prepay the Typenex Note under certain circumstances, subject to payment of a 35% prepayment penalty during the first six months the note is outstanding and 50% thereafter.

If, at any time that the Typenex Note is outstanding, the Company sells or issues any common stock or other securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock for a price per share that is less than the conversion price applicable under the Typenex Note, then such lower price will apply to all subsequent conversions by Typenex for a period of 20 trading days.
 
 
The Typenex Note includes customary and usual events of default. In the event of a default, the Typenex Note may be accelerated by Typenex. The outstanding balance would be immediately due and payable we are required to repay Typenex additional amounts (including the value of the amount then due in common stock, at the highest intraday trading price of the amount then due under the note) and/or liquidated damages in addition to the amount owed under the Typenex Note. In addition, we owe certain fees and liquidated damages to Typenex if we fail to timely issue shares of common stock under the Typenex Note.

Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares Pursuant to the Typenex Note, unless the market capitalization of the Company’s common stock is less than $10,000,000, in which case Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares.

Amounts owed by us under the Typenex Note is secured by a first priority security interest granted to Typenex pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into with Typenex, in each of the Investor Notes.

We hope to repay the Typenex Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the Typenex Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders will suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the Typenex Note is converted into common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note with JMJ Financial

On September 16, 2015, we sold JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of up to $900,000 (the “JMJ Convertible Note”). The initial amount received in connection with the sale of the JMJ Convertible Note was $350,000, and a total of $385,000 is currently due under the JMJ Convertible Note (not including the interest charge described below), as all amounts borrowed under the note include a 10% original issue discount. Moving forward, JMJ may loan us additional funds (up to $900,000 in aggregate) at our request, provided that JMJ has the right in its sole discretion to approve any future request for additional funding. Each advance under the JMJ Convertible Note is due two years from the date of such advance, with the amount initially funded under the note due on September 16, 2017.

The JMJ Convertible Note (including principal and accrued interest and where applicable other fees) is convertible into our common stock, at any time, at the lesser of $0.75 per share or 65% (a 35% discount) of the two lowest closing prices of our common stock in the 20 trading days prior to the date of any conversion, provided that if we are not DWAC eligible at the time of any conversion an additional 10% discount applies, and in the event our common stock is not DTC eligible at the time of any conversion, an additional 5% discount applies. The JMJ Convertible Note provides that unless we and JMJ agree in writing, JMJ is not eligible to convert any amount of the note into common stock which would result in JMJ owning more than 4.99% of our common stock.
 
A one-time interest charge of 12% was applied to the principal amount of the note, which remains payable regardless of the repayment (or conversion) date of the note.

Until 180 days after the date of the note, we are able to prepay the note assuming we prepay all outstanding principal together with a penalty of 40% of such amount, interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any), and the original issuance discount due thereon; and after 160 days, we are not able to prepay the note without JMJ’s written approval.

We agreed that we would reserve 25 million shares of common stock for conversion of the note. In the event we fail to deliver shares within four days of the date of any conversion by JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ $2,000 per day in penalties.

The JMJ Convertible Note provides for customary events of default including, our failure to timely make payments under the JMJ Convertible Note when due, our entry into bankruptcy proceedings, our failure to file reports with the SEC, our loss of DTC eligibility for our common stock, and the investor’s loss of the ability to rely on Rule 144. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an event of default, as described in greater detail in the JMJ Convertible Note, and at the election of JMJ, we are required to pay JMJ, either (i) the amount then owed under the note divided by the applicable conversion price, on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is lower), multiplied by the volume weighted average price on the date the default occurs or the default amount is demanded (whichever is higher), or (ii) 150% of the principal amount of the note, plus all of the unpaid interest, fees, liquidated damages (if any) and other amounts due. Any amount not paid when due accrues interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full. JMJ is not required to provide us any written notice in order to accelerate the amounts owed under the JMJ Convertible Note in the event of the occurrence of an event of default.

For so long as the JMJ Convertible Note is outstanding JMJ agreed not to effect any “short sales” of our common stock.

We hope to repay the JMJ Convertible Note prior to any conversion. In the event that the JMJ Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders will suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the JMJ Note is converted into common stock.
 
In September 2015, we sold the JSJ Convertible Note, the Typenex Convertible Note and the JMJ Convertible Note.  Each of such notes is convertible into our common stock at a discount to the trading price of our common stock as described in greater detail below under Item 5. Other Information. We claim an exemption from registration for the issuances of such convertible notes pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipients were (a) “accredited investors”; and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the recipients acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances and grant and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
 
The Company plans to issue a letter to shareholders on September 19, 2015, discussing its second quarter financial results for the three months ended July 31, 2015, business highlights from the quarter as well as anticipated projects and the company's balance sheet and cash flow position. A copy of the letter is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR THE SECURITIES THAT MAY BE ISSUED BY THE BORROWER UPON CONVERSION HEREOF (COLLECTIVELY, THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION.

12% CONVERTIBLE NOTE
 
Maturity Date of March 9, 2016  *the “Maturity Date”
 
$275,000   September 9, 2015  *the “Issuance Date”
 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”) doing business in Denver, CO, hereby promises to pay to the order of JSJ Investments Inc., an accredited investor and Texas Corporation, or its assigns (the “Holder”), the principal amount of Two Hundred and Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($275,000), on demand of the Holder at any time on or after March 9, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of Twelve Percent (12%) per annum (the Interest Rate) commencing on the date hereof (the Issuance Date).
 
1.
Payments of Principal and Interest.
 
 
a.
Payment of Principal.  Up to and on the Maturity Date [six months from Issuance Date], the Company may pay the principal at a cash redemption premium of 135% of the principal amount, in addition to outstanding interest, without the Holder’s consent. After the Maturity Date [six months from Issuance Date], but only with the consent of the Holder, the Company may repay the Note, in whole or in part, at a cash redemption premium of 150% of the principal amount, in addition to outstanding interest.
 
 
b.
Demand of Repayment.  The principal and interest balance of this Note shall be paid to the Holder hereof on written demand by the Holder at any time on or after the Maturity Date.
 
 
c.
Interest.  This Note shall bear interest (“Interest”) at the rate of Twelve Percent (12%) per annum from the Issuance Date until the same is paid, or otherwise converted in accordance with Section 2 below, in full and the Holder, at the Holder’s sole discretion, may include any accrued but unpaid Interest in the Conversion Amount. Interest shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall accrue daily and, after the Maturity Date, compound quarterly. Upon an Event of Default, as defined in Section 10 below, the Interest Rate shall increase to Eighteen Percent (18%) per annum for so long as the Event of Default is continuing (“Default Interest”), provided however, if Holder does not demand repayment on or after the Maturity Date the interest rate shall remain at Twelve Percent (12%).
 
 
d.
General Payment Provisions.  This Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by check to such account as the Holder may from time to time designate by written notice to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Note.  Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. For purposes of this Note, “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the State of Texas are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
 
 
2.
Conversion of Note. At any time prior to, upon, or after the Maturity Date, the Conversion Amount (see Paragraph 2(a)(i)) of this Note shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) according to the terms and conditions set forth in this Paragraph 2.
 


 
 

 
 
 
 
a.
Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Note, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
 
 
i.
Conversion Amount” means the sum of (a) the principal amount of this Note to be converted with respect to which this determination is being made, (b) Interest; and (c) Default Interest, if any, on unpaid interest and principal, if so included at the Holder’s sole discretion.
 
 
ii.
Conversion Price” means a 40% discount to the third (3rd) lowest trade during the previous ten (10) trading days to the date of a Conversion Notice. By way of example if the company's common stock trades at $.20 on three separate occasions and at $.21 one time during the pricing period, then the third lowest trade would be $.20 per share.
 
 
iii.
Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof.
 
 
iv.
Shares” means the Shares of the Common Stock of the Company into which any balance on this Note may be converted upon submission of a “Conversion Notice” to the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
 
 
 
b.
Holder’s Conversion Rights. At any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert all of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with the stated Conversion Price. The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such Conversion Date.  For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of 4.99% (“Conversion Limitation 1”) The Holder shall have the authority to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 2(b) will limit any conversion hereunder.  The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 2(b), in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower to increase such percentage to up to 9.99% (“Conversion Limitation 2”). The Company shall not have any obligation to confirm or verify Conversion Limitation 1 or Conversion Limitation 2, and shall instead be able to rely on any notice of conversion provided to Company by Holder as prima facie evidence that the number of shares of Common Stock set forth therein, when issued to Holder, will not cause Holder to exceed the applicable Conversion Limitation.
 
 
c.
Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion; if such issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share except in the event that rounding up would violate the conversion limitation set forth in section 2(b) above.
 
 
d.
Conversion Amount. The Conversion Amount shall be converted pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(ii) and Rule 144(d)(1)(ii) as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, into unrestricted shares at the Conversion Price, subject to the applicability of Rule 144 and an opinion of counsel from Holder confirming the same.
 
 
e.
Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of this Note shall be conducted in the following manner:
 
 
i.
Holder’s Conversion Requirements. To convert this Note into shares of Common Stock on any date set forth in the Conversion Notice by the Holder (the “Conversion Date”), the Holder hereof shall transmit by email, facsimile or otherwise deliver, for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on such date or on the next business day, a copy of a fully executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 to the Company.
 
 
ii.
Company’s Response. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of such Conversion Notice, send, via email, facsimile or overnight courier, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such Holder indicating that the Company will process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. Within two (2) Business Days after the date the Conversion Notice is delivered, the Company shall have issued and electronically transferred the shares to the Broker indicated in the Conversion Notice; should the Company be unable to transfer the shares electronically, it shall, within two (2) Business Days after the date the Conversion was delivered, have surrendered to an overnight courier for delivery the next day to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled.
 
 
 
2

 
 
 
 
iii.
Record Holder. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.
 
 
iv.
Timely Response by Company. Upon receipt by Company of a Conversion Notice, Company shall respond within one business day to Holder confirming the details of the Conversion, and provide within two business days the Shares requested in the Conversion Notice.
 
 
v.
Liquidated Damages for Delinquent Response. If the Company fails to deliver for whatever reason (including any neglect or failure by, e.g., the Company, its counsel or the transfer agent) to Holder the Shares as requested in a Conversion Notice within three (3) business days of the Conversion Date, the Company shall be deemed in “Default of Conversion.” Beginning on the fourth (4th) business day after the date of the Conversion Notice, after the Company is deemed in Default of Conversion, there shall accrue liquidated damages (the “Conversion Damages”) of Additional Shares due to Holder equal to Twenty-Five percent (25%) of the number stated in the Conversion Notice and for every five (5) Trading Days while a Default of Conversion is in effect and continuing the Company shall continue to incur a Conversion Penalty in the amount of Twenty-Five percent (25%) of the number of shares stated in the Conversion Notice issuable to Holder (the “Additional Shares”), which may be applied to the Conversion at the Holder’s election. The Additional Shares shall be issued and the amount of the Note retired will not be reduced beyond that stated in the Conversion Notice.  If the Additional Shares owed the Holder cause the Shares requested by the Conversion Notice to exceed Conversion Limitation 1 or Conversion Limitation 2, as applicable, the Holder may opt instead to have the Conversion Amount reduced by the value, as calculated using the Conversion Price, of the Additional Shares owing. At any time after a Default of Conversion the Holder may, at their sole discretion, rescind the Conversion The Parties agree that, at the time of drafting of this Note, the Holder’s damages as to the delinquent response are incapable or difficult to estimate and that the liquidated damages called for is a reasonable forecast of just compensation. Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be responsible for failures or delays due to Holder or its broker’s failure to take required action(s) to receive such Shares.
 
 
vi.
Liquidated Damages for Inability to Issue Shares. If the Company fails to deliver Shares requested by a Conversion Notice due to an exhaustion of authorized and issuable common stock such that the Company must increase the number of authorized Common Stock before the Shares requested may be issued to the Holder, the discount set forth in the Conversion Price will be increased by 5% for the Conversion Notice in question and all future Conversion Notices until the outstanding principal and interest of the Note is converted or paid in full. These liquidated damages shall not render the penalties prescribed by Paragraph 2(e)(v) void, and may be applied in conjunction with Paragraph 2(e)(v) at the Holder’s election. The Parties agree that, at the time of drafting of this Note, the Holder’s damages as to the inability to issue shares are incapable or difficult to estimate and that the liquidated damages called for is a reasonable forecast of just compensation.
 
 
vii.
Rescindment of Conversion Notice. If (i) the Company fails to respond to Holder within one business day from the date of Conversion confirming the details of Conversion, (ii) the Company fails to provide the Shares requested in the Conversion Notice within three business days from the date of Conversion, (iii) the Holder is unable to procure a legal opinion required to have the Shares issued unrestricted and/or deposited to sell for any reason related to the Company's standing, (iv) the Holder is unable to deposit the Shares requested in the Conversion Notice for any reason related to the Company's standing, (v) if the Holder is informed that the Company does not have the authorized and issuable Shares available to satisfy the Conversion, or (vi) if OTC Markets changes the Company's designation to 'Limited Information' (Yield), 'No Information' (Stop Sign), 'Caveat Emptor' (Skull and Crossbones), or 'OTC', 'Other OTC' or 'Grey Market' (Exclamation Mark Sign) on the day of or any day after the date of Conversion, the Holder maintains the option and sole discretion to rescind the Conversion Notice ("Rescindment") with a "Notice of Rescindment.”

a.
Holder is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D of the 1933 Act, and will acquire this Note and the Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account and not with a view to a sale or distribution thereof as that term is used in Section 2(a)(11) of the 1933 Act, in a manner which would require registration under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws. Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Securities. Holder can bear the economic risk of the Securities, has knowledge and experience in financial business matters and is capable of bearing and managing the risk of investment in the Securities. Holder recognizes that the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold unless the resale of the Securities is registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from registration is available. Holder has carefully considered and has, to the extent Holder believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Securities for its particular tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, and has determined that the Securities is a suitable investment for it.  Holder has not been offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to Holders' knowledge, those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising. Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from the Company, or any person or persons acting on behalf of the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the Securities and the Company, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Holder. The Company has not supplied Holder any information regarding the Securities or an investment in the Securities other than as contained in this Agreement, and Holder is relying on its own investigation and evaluation of the Company and the Securities and not on any other information.

 
b.
The Holder is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Holder is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

 
c.
All corporate action has been taken on the part of the Holder, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Holder has taken all corporate action required to make all of the obligations of the Holder reflected in the provisions of this Agreement, valid and enforceable obligations.

 
d.
Each certificate or instrument representing Securities will be endorsed with the following legend (or a substantially similar legend), unless or until registered under the 1933 Act:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES, THE TRANSFER IS MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES WHICH IS REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, STATING THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT.

Exhibit 10.32
 
Securities Purchase Agreement

This Securities Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of September 14, 2015, is entered into by and between Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), and Typenex Co-Investment, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, its successors and/or assigns (“Investor”).
 
A.           Company and Investor are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).
 
B.           Investor desires to purchase and Company desires to issue and sell, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement a Secured Convertible Promissory Note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the original principal amount of $1,005,000.00 (the “Note”), convertible into shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Company (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in such Note.
 
C.           This Agreement, the Note, the Security Agreement (as defined below), the Pledge Agreement (as defined below), the Secured Investor Note (as defined below), the Investor Notes (as defined below), and all other certificates, documents, agreements, resolutions and instruments delivered to any party under or in connection with this Agreement, as the same may be amended from time to time, are collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents”.
 
D.           For purposes of this Agreement: “Conversion Shares” means all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all or any portion of the Note; and “Securities” means the Note and the Conversion Shares.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Company and Investor hereby agree as follows:

Subject to Section 1.5, the Secured Investor Note shall be secured by the Membership Interest Pledge Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Pledge Agreement”). Initially, only the Secured Investor Note will be secured by the Pledge Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Pledge Agreement, the Secured Investor Note and this Agreement, but the Investor Notes may become secured subsequent to the Closing (as defined below) by such collateral and at such time as determined by Investor in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Cash Purchase Price constitutes payment in full for the Initial Tranche (as defined in the Note).
 
1.2.           Form of Payment. On the Closing Date, (i) Investor shall pay the Purchase Price to Company by delivering the following at the Closing: (A) the Initial Cash Purchase Price, which shall be delivered by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Company, in accordance with Company’s written wiring instructions; (B) Secured Investor Note #1 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Secured Investor Note” or “Secured Investor Note #1”); (C) Investor Note #2 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (“Investor Note #2”); and (D) Investor Note #3 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (“Investor Note #3”, and together with Investor Note #2, the “Investor Notes”); and (ii) Company shall deliver the duly executed Note on behalf of Company, to Investor, against delivery of such Purchase Price.

The Note shall be secured by the collateral set forth in that certain Security Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E listing the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes as security for Company’s obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Security Agreement”).
 
1.5.           Collateral for Secured Investor Note. At the Closing, Investor shall execute the Pledge Agreement, thereby granting to Company a security interest in the collateral described therein (the “Collateral”). Investor also agrees to file a UCC Financing Statement (Form UCC1) with the Utah Department of Commerce in the manner set forth in the Pledge Agreement in order to perfect Company’s security interest in the Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, Investor may, in Investor’s sole discretion, add additional collateral to the Collateral covered by the Pledge Agreement, and may substitute Collateral as Investor deems fit, provided that the net fair market value of the substituted Collateral may not be less than the principal balance of the Secured Investor Note as of the date of any such substitution. In the event of a substitution of Collateral, Investor shall timely execute any and all amendments and documents necessary or advisable in order to properly release the original collateral and grant a security interest upon the substitute collateral in favor of Company, including without limitation the filing of an applicable UCC Financing Statement Amendment (Form UCC3) with the Utah Department of Commerce. Company agrees to sign the documents and take such other measures requested by Investor in order to accomplish the intent of the Transaction Documents, including without limitation, execution of a Form UCC3 (or equivalent) termination statement against the Collateral within five (5) Trading Days (as defined in the Note) after written request from Investor. Company acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral may be encumbered by other monetary liens in priority and/or subordinate positions. The intent of the parties is that the net fair market value of the Collateral (less any other prior liens or encumbrances) will be equal to or greater than the outstanding balance of the Secured Investor Note. To the extent the fair market value of the Collateral (less any other liens or encumbrances) is less than the outstanding balance of the Secured Investor Note, then the Collateral will be deemed to only secure that portion of the Secured Investor Note with an outstanding balance that is less than or equal to such net fair market value of the Collateral. By way of example only, if the fair market value of the Collateral is determined by appraisal to be $200,000.00 and the Collateral is encumbered by $100,000.00 of prior liens, then the net fair market value for purposes of this section is $100,000.00 ($200,000.00 - $100,000.00). Accordingly, the Collateral will be deemed to secure only a $100,000.00 portion of the Secured Investor Note, while the remaining balance of the Secured Investor Note shall be deemed unsecured. If the Collateral is subsequently appraised for $400,000.00 with all prior liens removed, then the Collateral will automatically be deemed to secure the entire outstanding balance of the Secured Investor Note.

1.6.           Transaction Expenses. Company agrees to pay $5,000.00 to Investor to cover Investor’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities (the “Transaction Expense Amount”), all of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of the Note. The Purchase Price, therefore, shall be $1,000,000.00, computed as follows: $1,005,000.00 original principal balance, less the Transaction Expense Amount. The Initial Cash Purchase Price shall be the Purchase Price less the sum of the initial principal amounts of the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes.

4.           Company Covenants. Until all of Company’s obligations under all of the Transaction Documents are paid and performed in full, or within the timeframes otherwise specifically set forth below, Company shall comply with the following covenants: (17) so long as Investor beneficially owns any of the Securities and for at least twenty (20) Trading Days thereafter, Company shall timely file on the applicable deadline all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and shall take all reasonable action under its control to ensure that adequate current public information with respect to Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, is publicly available, and shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination; (18) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on any of (a) NYSE, (b) NASDAQ, (c) OTCQX, or (d) OTCQB; (19) when issued, the Conversion Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid for and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, claims, charges and encumbrances; (20) trading in Company’s Common Stock shall not be suspended, halted, chilled, frozen, reach zero bid or otherwise cease on the Company’s principal trading market; (21) Company shall not transfer, assign, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise alienate or encumber the Secured Investor Note or the Investor Notes in any way without the prior written consent of Investor; (22) Company shall not have more than four (4) Variable Security Holders, excluding Investor, without Investor’s prior written consent; (23) Company may make one Variable Security Issuance in an amount greater than or equal to $200,000.00, but all other Variable Security Issuances made by Company must be in an amount greater than or equal to $250,000.00, unless Company first receives Investor’s prior written consent to make a Variable Security Issuance for a lesser amount. For purposes hereof, the term “Variable Security Holder” means any holder of any Company securities that are convertible into Common Stock (including without limitation convertible debt, warrants or convertible preferred stock) with a conversion price that varies with the market price of the Common Stock (each, a “Variable Security Issuance”).
 
5.           Conditions to Company’s Obligation to Sell. The obligation of Company hereunder to issue and sell the Securities to Investor at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:
 
5.1.           Investor shall have executed this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Secured Investor Note, and the Investor Notes and delivered the same to Company.
 
5.2.           Investor shall have delivered the Initial Cash Purchase Price to Company in accordance with Section 1.2 above.
 
6.           Conditions to Investor’s Obligation to Purchase. The obligation of Investor hereunder to purchase the Securities at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for Investor’s sole benefit and may be waived by Investor at any time in its sole discretion:
 
6.1.           Company shall have executed this Agreement and delivered the same to Investor.
 
6.2.           Company shall have delivered to Investor the duly executed Note in accordance with Section 1.2 above.
 
6.3.           Company shall have executed and delivered to Investor the Pledge Agreement.
 
6.4.           Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Irrevocable Letter of Instructions to Transfer Agent substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F acknowledged and agreed to in writing by Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).
 
6.5.           Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Secretary’s Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G evidencing Company’s approval of the Transaction Documents.
 
6.6.           Company shall have delivered to Investor a fully executed Share Issuance Resolution substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H to be delivered to the Transfer Agent.
 
6.7.           Company shall have delivered to Investor fully executed copies of the Security Agreement and all other Transaction Documents required to be executed by Company herein or therein.
 
7.           Reservation of Shares. At all times during which the Note is convertible, Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of the Note at least three (3) times the quotient obtained by dividing the Outstanding Balance (as defined in the Note) by the lesser of the Lender Conversion Price (as defined in the Note) and the Redemption Conversion Price (as defined in the Note) (the “Share Reserve”), but in any event not less than 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock shall be reserved at all times for such purpose (the “Transfer Agent Reserve”). Company further agrees that it will cause the Transfer Agent to immediately add shares of Common Stock to the Transfer Agent Reserve in increments of 1,000,000 shares as and when requested by Investor in writing from time to time, provided that such incremental increases do not cause the Transfer Agent Reserve to exceed the Share Reserve. In furtherance thereof, from and after the date hereof and until such time that the Note has been paid in full, Company shall require the Transfer Agent to reserve for the purpose of issuance of Conversion Shares under the Note, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Transfer Agent Reserve. Company shall further require the Transfer Agent to hold such shares of Common Stock exclusively for the benefit of Investor and to issue such shares to Investor promptly upon Investor’s delivery of a conversion notice under the Note. Finally, Company shall require the Transfer Agent to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Note to Investor out of its authorized and unissued shares, and not the Transfer Agent Reserve, to the extent shares of Common Stock have been authorized, but not issued, and are not included in the Transfer Agent Reserve. The Transfer Agent shall only issue shares out of the Transfer Agent Reserve to the extent there are no other authorized shares available for issuance and then only with Investor’s written consent.

8.           No Shorting. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date the Note has been repaid in full or sold by Investor to a third party that is not an affiliate of Investor, Investor will not directly or through an affiliate engage in any open market Short Sales (as defined below) of the Common Stock; provided; however, that unless and until Company has affirmatively demonstrated by the use of specific evidence that Investor is engaging in open market Short Sales, Investor shall be assumed to be in compliance with the provisions of this Section 8 and Company shall remain fully obligated to fulfill all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents; and provided, further, that (i) Company shall under no circumstances be entitled to request or demand that Investor either (A) provide trading or other records of Investor or of any party or (B) affirmatively demonstrate that Investor or any other party has not engaged in any such Short Sales in breach of these provisions as a condition to Company’s fulfillment of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) Company shall not assert Investor’s or any other party’s failure to demonstrate such absence of such Short Sales or provide any trading or other records of Investor or any other party as all or part of a defense to any breach of Company’s obligations under any of the Transaction Documents, and (iii) Company shall have no setoff right with respect to any such Short Sales.  As used herein, “Short Sale” has the meaning provided in Rule 3b-3 under the 1934 Act.
 
9.           Miscellaneous. The provisions set forth in this Section 9 shall apply to this Agreement, as well as all other Transaction Documents as if these terms were fully set forth therein.
 
9.1.           Original Signature Pages. Each party agrees to deliver its original signature pages to the Transaction Documents to the other party within five (5) Trading Days of the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Transaction Documents shall be fully effective upon exchange of electronic signature pages by the parties and payment of the Initial Cash Purchase Price by Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by either party to deliver its original signature pages to the other party shall not affect in any way the validity or effectiveness of any of the Transaction Documents, provided that such failure to deliver original signatures shall be a breach of the party’s obligations hereunder.
 
9.2.           Arbitration of Claims. The parties shall submit all Claims (as defined in Exhibit I) arising under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other agreement between the parties and their affiliates to binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration provisions set forth in Exhibit I attached hereto (the “Arbitration Provisions”). The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Provisions are unconditionally binding on the parties hereto and are severable from all other provisions of this Agreement. By executing this Agreement, Company represents, warrants and covenants that Company has reviewed the Arbitration Provisions carefully, consulted with legal counsel about such provisions (or waived its right to do so), understands that the Arbitration Provisions are intended to allow for the expeditious and efficient resolution of any dispute hereunder, agrees to the terms and limitations set forth in the Arbitration Provisions, and that Company will not take a position contrary to the foregoing representations. Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor may rely upon the foregoing representations and covenants of Company regarding the Arbitration Provisions.

9.3.           Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws. Each party consents to and expressly agrees that exclusive venue for arbitration of any dispute arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or the relationship of the parties or their affiliates shall be in Salt Lake County or Utah County, Utah. Without modifying the parties obligations to resolve disputes hereunder pursuant to the Arbitration Provisions, for any litigation arising in connection with any of the Transaction Documents, each party hereto hereby (i) consents to and expressly submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah, (ii) expressly submits to the exclusive venue of any such court for the purposes hereof, and (iii) waives any claim of improper venue and any claim or objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or any other claim or objection to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions or to any claim that such venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper.
 
9.4.           Calculation Disputes. Notwithstanding the Arbitration Provisions, in the case of a dispute as to any determination or arithmetic calculation under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation, calculating the Outstanding Balance, Lender Conversion Price, Lender Conversion Shares (as defined in the Note), Redemption Conversion Price, Redemption Conversion Shares (as defined in the Note), Conversion Factor (as defined in the Note), or VWAP (as defined in the Note) (each, a “Calculation”), Company or Investor (as the case may be) shall submit any disputed Calculation via email or facsimile with confirmation of receipt (i) within two (2) Trading Days after receipt of the applicable notice giving rise to such dispute to Company or Investor (as the case may be) or (ii) if no notice gave rise to such dispute, at any time after Investor learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If Investor and Company are unable to agree upon such Calculation within two (2) Trading Days of such disputed Calculation being submitted to Company or Investor (as the case may be), then Investor shall, within two (2) Trading Days, submit via email or facsimile the disputed Calculation to Unkar Systems Inc. (“Unkar Systems”). Company shall cause Unkar Systems to perform the Calculation and notify Company and Investor of the results no later than ten (10) Trading Days from the time it receives such disputed Calculation. Unkar Systems’ determination of the disputed Calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. Unkar Systems’ fee for performing such Calculation shall be paid by the incorrect party, or if both parties are incorrect, by the party whose Calculation is furthest from the correct Calculation as reasonably determined by Unkar Systems. In the event Company is the losing party, no extension of the Delivery Date (as defined in the Note) shall be granted and Company shall incur all effects for failing to deliver the applicable shares in a timely manner as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor may, in its sole discretion, designate an independent, reputable investment bank or accounting firm other than Unkar Systems to resolve any such dispute and in such event, all references to “Unkar Systems” herein will be replaced with references to such independent, reputable investment bank or accounting firm so designated by Investor.
 
9.5.           Counterparts. Each Transaction Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. The parties hereto confirm that any electronic copy of another party’s executed counterpart of a Transaction Document (or such party’s signature page thereof) will be deemed to be an executed original thereof.
 
9.6.           Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.
 
9.7.           Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform to such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

9.8.           Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither Company nor Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters.
 
9.9.           No Reliance. Company acknowledges and agrees that neither Investor nor any of its officers, directors, members, managers, representatives or agents has made any representations or warranties to Company or any of its officers, directors, representatives, agents or employees except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents and, in making its decision to enter into the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, Company is not relying on any representation, warranty, covenant or promise of Investor or its officers, directors, members, managers, agents or representatives other than as set forth in the Transaction Documents.
 
9.10.           Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.
 
9.11.           Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing (unless otherwise specified herein) and shall be deemed effectively given on the earliest of: (i) the date delivered, if delivered by personal delivery as against written receipt therefor or by email to an executive officer, or by facsimile (with successful transmission confirmation), (ii) the earlier of the date delivered or the third Trading Day after deposit, postage prepaid, in the United States Postal Service by certified mail, or (iii) the earlier of the date delivered or the third Trading Day after mailing by express courier, with delivery costs and fees prepaid, in each case, addressed to each of the other parties thereunto entitled at the following addresses (or at such other addresses as such party may designate by five (5) calendar days’ advance written notice similarly given to each of the other parties hereto):

9.12.           Successors and Assigns. This Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to be performed by Investor hereunder may be assigned by Investor to a third party, including its financing sources, in whole or in part, without the need to obtain Company’s consent thereto. Company may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of Investor.
 
9.13.           Survival. The representations and warranties of Company and the agreements and covenants set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing hereunder notwithstanding any due diligence investigation conducted by or on behalf of Investor. Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Investor and all its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents for loss or damage arising as a result of or related to any breach or alleged breach by Company of any of its representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement or any of its covenants and obligations under this Agreement, including advancement of expenses as they are incurred.
 
9.14.           Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
 
9.15.           Investor’s Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Liquidated Damages. All rights, remedies, and powers conferred in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies, and shall be in addition to every other right, power, and remedy that Investor may have, whether specifically granted in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or existing at law, in equity, or by statute, and any and all such rights and remedies may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as Investor may deem expedient. The parties acknowledge and agree that upon Company’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Transaction Documents, Investor’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and future share prices, Investor’s increased risk, and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Investor, among other reasons. Accordingly, any fees, charges, and default interest due under the Note and the other Transaction Documents are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Company’s and Investor’s expectations that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Closing Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144 under the 1933 Act). The parties agree that such liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of Investor’s actual damages and not a penalty, and shall not be deemed in any way to limit any other right or remedy Investor may have hereunder, at law or in equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that under the circumstances existing at the time this Agreement is entered into, such liquidated damages are fair and reasonable and are not penalties. All fees, charges, and default interest provided for in the Transaction Documents are agreed to by the parties to be based upon the obligations and the risks assumed by the parties as of the Closing Date and are consistent with investments of this type. The liquidated damages provisions of the Transaction Documents shall not limit or preclude a party from pursuing any other remedy available at law or in equity; provided, however, that the liquidated damages provided for in the Transaction Documents are intended to be in lieu of actual damages.

9.16.           Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time Investor shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause Investor (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding the Maximum Percentage (as defined in the Note), then Company must not issue to Investor the shares that would cause Investor to exceed the Maximum Percentage. The shares of Common Stock issuable to Investor that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the “Ownership Limitation Shares”. Company will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Investor. From time to time, Investor may notify Company in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Investor without causing Investor to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Company shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to Investor, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. For purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act.
 
9.17.           Attorneys’ Fees and Cost of Collection. In the event of any arbitration or action at law or in equity to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the party who is awarded the most money shall be deemed the prevailing party for all purposes and shall therefore be entitled to an additional award of the full amount of the attorneys’ fees, deposition costs, and expenses paid by such prevailing party in connection with arbitration or litigation without reduction or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses giving rise to the fees and expenses. Nothing herein shall restrict or impair an arbitrator’s or a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous or bad faith pleading. If (i) the Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Investor otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under the Note or to enforce the provisions of the Note; or (ii) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of Company or other proceedings affecting Company’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim under the Note; then Company shall pay the costs incurred by Investor for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expenses, deposition costs, and disbursements.
 
9.18.           Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.
 
9.19.           Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO DEMAND THAT ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING UNDER COMMON LAW OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OR REGULATION. FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

9.20.           Time is of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
 
9.21.           Voluntary Agreement. Company has carefully read this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents and has asked any questions needed for Company to understand the terms, consequences and binding effect of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents and fully understand them. Company has had the opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Company’s choosing and is executing this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by Investor or anyone else.

ARBITRATION PROVISIONS
 
1.      Dispute Resolution. For purposes of this Exhibit I, the term “Claims” means any disputes, claims, demands, causes of action, liabilities, damages, losses, or controversies whatsoever arising from related to or connected with the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents and any communications between the parties related thereto, including without limitation any claims of mutual mistake, mistake, fraud, misrepresentation, failure of formation, failure of consideration, promissory estoppel, unconscionability, failure of condition precedent, rescission, and any statutory claims, tort claims, contract claims, or claims to void, invalidate or terminate the Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. The term “Claims” specifically excludes a dispute over Calculations. The parties hereby agree that the arbitration provisions set forth in this Exhibit I (“Arbitration Provisions”) are binding on the parties hereto and are severable from all other provisions in the Transaction Documents. As a result, any attempt to rescind the Agreement or declare the Agreement or any other Transaction Document invalid or unenforceable for any reason is subject to these Arbitration Provisions. These Arbitration Provisions shall also survive any termination or expiration of the Agreement. Any capitalized term not defined in these Arbitration Provisions shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.
 
2.      Arbitration. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Claims must be submitted to arbitration (“Arbitration”) to be conducted exclusively in Salt Lake County or Utah County, Utah and pursuant to the terms set forth in these Arbitration Provisions. The parties agree that the award of the arbitrator (the “Arbitration Award”) shall be final and binding upon the parties (subject to the appear right set forth in Section 4 below); shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any Claims, counterclaims, issues, or accountings presented or pleaded to the arbitrator; and shall promptly be payable in United States dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset (with respect to monetary awards). Any costs or fees, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, incident to enforcing the arbitrator’s award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. The award shall include Default Interest (as defined in the Note) both before and after the award. Judgment upon the award of the arbitrator will be entered and enforced by a state court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah. The parties hereby incorporate herein the provisions and procedures set forth in the Utah Uniform Arbitration Act, U.C.A. § 78B-11-101 et seq. (as amended or superseded from time to time, the “Arbitration Act”). Pursuant to Section 105 of the Arbitration Act, in the event of conflict between the terms of these Arbitration Provisions and the provisions of the Arbitration Act, the terms of these Arbitration Provisions shall control.
 
3.      Arbitration Proceedings. Arbitration between the parties will be subject to the following procedures:
 
3.1         Pursuant to Section 110 of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that a party may initiate Arbitration by giving written notice to the other party (“Arbitration Notice”) in the same manner that notice is permitted under Section 9.11 of the Agreement; provided, however, that the Arbitration Notice may not be given by email or fax. Arbitration will be deemed initiated as of the date that the Arbitration Notice is deemed delivered under Section 9.11 of the Agreement (the “Service Date”). After the Service Date, information may be delivered, and notices may be given, by email or fax pursuant to Section 9.11 of the Agreement or any other method permitted thereunder. The Arbitration Notice must describe the nature of the controversy, the remedies sought, and the election to commence Arbitration proceedings. All Claims in the Arbitration Notice must be pleaded consistent with the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure.
 
3.2         Within ten (10) calendar days after the Service Date, Investor shall select and submit to Company the names of three (3) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com) (such three (3) designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Arbitrators”). For the avoidance of doubt, each Proposed Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR Services. Within ten (10) calendar days after Investor has submitted to Company the names of the Proposed Arbitrators, Company must select, by written notice to Investor, one (1) of the Proposed Arbitrators to act as the arbitrator for the parties under these Arbitration Provisions. If Company fails to select one of the Proposed Arbitrators in writing within such 10-day period, then Investor may select the arbitrator from the Proposed Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to Company. If Investor fails to identify the Proposed Arbitrators within the time period required above, then Company may at any time prior to Investor designating the Proposed Arbitrators, select the names of three (3) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Service by written notice to Investor. Investor may then, within ten (10) calendar days after Company has submitted notice of its selected arbitrators to Investor, select, by written notice to Company, one (1) of the selected arbitrators to act as the arbitrator for the parties under these Arbitration Provisions. If Investor fails to select in writing and within such 10-day period one of the three (3) arbitrators selected by Company, then Company may select the arbitrator from its three (3) previously selected arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to Investor. Subject to Paragraph 3.12 below, the cost of the arbitrator must be paid equally by both parties; provided, however, that if one party refuses or fails to pay its portion of the arbitrator fee, then the other party can advance such unpaid amount (subject to the accrual of Default Interest thereupon), with such amount added to or subtracted from, as applicable, the award granted by the arbitrator. If Utah ADR Services ceases to exist or to provide a list of neutrals, then the arbitrator shall be selected under the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association. The date that the selected arbitrator agrees in writing to serve as the arbitrator hereunder is referred to herein as the “Arbitration Commencement Date”.
 
 
Arbitration Provisions, Page 1

 
3.3         An answer and any counterclaims to the Arbitration Notice, which must be pleaded consistent with the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure, shall be required to be delivered to the other party within twenty (20) calendar days after the Service Date. Upon request, the arbitrator is hereby instructed to render a default award, consistent with the relief requested in the Arbitration Notice, against a party that fails to submit an answer within such time period.
 
3.4         The party that delivers the Arbitration Notice to the other party shall have the option to also commence concurrent legal proceedings with any state court sitting in Salt Lake County, Utah (“Litigation Proceedings”), subject to the following: (i) the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings is to be substantially similar to the claims set forth in the Arbitration Notice, provided that an additional cause of action to compel arbitration will also be included therein, (ii) so long as the other party files an answer to the complaint in the Litigation Proceedings and an answer to the Arbitration Notice, the Litigation Proceedings will be stayed pending an Arbitration Award hereunder, (iii) if the other party fails to file an answer in the Litigation Proceedings or an answer in the Arbitration Proceedings, then the party initiating Arbitration shall be entitled to a default judgment consistent with the relief requested, to be entered in the Litigation Proceedings, and (iv) any legal or procedural issue arising under the Arbitration Act that requires a decision of a court of competent jurisdiction may be determined in the Litigation Proceedings. Any award of the arbitrator may be entered in such Litigation Proceedings pursuant to the Arbitration Act.
 
3.5         Pursuant to Section 118(8) of the Arbitration Act, the parties agree that discovery shall be conducted in accordance with the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure; provided, however, that incorporation of such rules will in no event supersede the Arbitration Provisions set forth herein, including without limitation the time limitation set forth in Paragraph 3.9 below, and the following:
 
a.         Discovery will only be allowed if the likely benefits of the proposed discovery outweigh the burden or expense, and the discovery sought is likely to reveal information that will satisfy a specific element of a claim or defense already pleaded in the Arbitration. The party seeking discovery shall always have the burden of showing that all of the standards and limitations set forth in these Arbitration Provisions are satisfied. The scope of discovery in the Arbitration proceedings shall also be limited as follows:
 
(i)         To facts directly connected with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.
 
(ii)         To facts and information that cannot be obtained from another source that is more convenient, less burdensome or less expensive.
 
b.         No party shall be allowed (i) more than fifteen (15) interrogatories (including discrete subparts), (ii) more than fifteen (15) requests for admission (including discrete subparts), (iii) more than ten (10) document requests (including discrete subparts), or (iv) more than three depositions (excluding expert depositions) for a maximum of seven (7) hours per deposition.
 
3.6         Any party submitting any written discovery requests, including interrogatories, requests for production, subpoenas to a party or a third party, or requests for admissions, must prepay the estimated attorneys’ fees and costs, as determined by the arbitrator, before the responding party has any obligation to produce or respond.
 
 
Arbitration Provisions, Page 2

 
(a)         All discovery requests must be submitted in writing to the arbitrator and the other party before issuing or serving such discovery requests. The party issuing the written discovery requests must include with such discovery requests a detailed explanation of how the proposed discovery requests satisfy the requirements of these Arbitration Provisions and the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure. Any party will then be allowed, within ten (10) calendar days of receiving the proposed discovery requests, to submit to the arbitrator an estimate of the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to such written discovery requests and a written challenge to each applicable discovery request. After receipt of an estimate of attorneys’ fees and costs and/or challenge(s) to one or more discovery requests, the arbitrator will make a finding as to the likely attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests and issue an order that (A) requires the requesting party to prepay the attorneys’ fees and costs associated with responding to the discovery requests, and (B) requires the responding party to respond to the discovery requests as limited by the arbitrator within a certain period of time after receiving payment from the requesting party. If a party entitled to submit an estimate of attorneys’ fees and costs and/or a challenge to discovery requests fails to do so within such 10-day period, the arbitrator will make a finding that (A) there are no attorneys’ fees or costs associated with responding to such discovery requests, and (B) the responding party must respond to such discovery requests (as may be limited by the arbitrator) within a certain period of time as determined by the arbitrator.
 
 (b)         In order to allow a written discovery request, the arbitrator must find that the discovery request satisfies the standards set forth in these Arbitration Provisions and the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure. The arbitrator must strictly enforce these standards. If a discovery request does not satisfy any of the standards set forth in these Arbitration Provisions or the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure, the arbitrator may modify such discovery request to satisfy the applicable standards, or strike such discovery request in whole or in part.
 
(c)         Discovery deadlines will be set forth in a scheduling order issued by the arbitrator. The parties hereby authorize and direct the arbitrator to take such actions and make such rulings as may be necessary to carry out the parties’ intent for the arbitration proceedings to be efficient and expeditious.
 
3.7         Each party may submit expert reports (and rebuttals thereto), provided that such reports must be submitted by the deadlines established by the arbitrator. Expert reports must contain the following: (a) a complete statement of all opinions the expert will offer at trial and the basis and reasons for them; (b) the expert’s name and qualifications, including a list of all publications within the preceding 10 years, and a list of any other cases in which the expert has testified at trial or in a deposition or prepared a report within the preceding 10 years; and (c) the compensation to be paid for the expert’s report and testimony. The parties are entitled to depose any other party’s expert witness one time for no more than 4 hours. An expert may not testify in a party’s case-in-chief concerning any matter not fairly disclosed in the expert report.
 
3.8         All information disclosed by either party during the Arbitration process (including without limitation information disclosed during the discovery process) shall be considered confidential in nature. Each party agrees not to disclose any confidential information received from the other party during the discovery process unless (i) prior to or after the time of disclosure such information becomes public knowledge or part of the public domain, not as a result of any inaction or action of the receiving party, (ii) such information is required by a court order, subpoena or similar legal duress to be disclosed if such receiving party has notified the other party thereof in writing and given it a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order from a court of competent jurisdiction prior to disclosure; or (iii) disclosed to the receiving party’s agents, representatives and legal counsel on a need to know basis who each agree in writing not to disclose such information to any third party. Pursuant to Section 118(5) of the Arbitration Act, the arbitrator is hereby authorized and directed to issue a protective order to prevent the disclosure of privileged information and confidential information upon the written request of either party.
 
3.9         The parties hereby authorize and direct the arbitrator to take such actions and make such rulings as may be necessary to carry out the parties’ intent for the arbitration proceedings to be efficient and expeditious. Pursuant to Section 120 of the Arbitration Act, the parties hereby agree that an Arbitration Award must be made within 150 days after the Arbitration Commencement Date. The arbitrator is hereby authorized and directed to hold a scheduling conference within ten (10) calendar days after the Arbitration Commencement Date in order to establish a scheduling order with various binding deadlines for discovery, expert testimony, and the submission of documents by the parties to enable the arbitrator to render a decision prior to the end of such 150-day period. The Utah Rules of Evidence will apply to any final hearing before the arbitrator.
 
 
Arbitration Provisions, Page 3

 
3.10                 The arbitrator shall have the right to award or include in the Arbitration Award any relief which the arbitrator deems proper under the circumstances, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunctive relief, provided that the arbitrator may not award exemplary or punitive damages.
 
3.11                 If any part of these Arbitration Provisions is found to violate applicable law or to be illegal, then such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable under applicable law.
 
3.12                 The arbitrator is hereby directed to require the losing party to (i) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees of the arbitrator, and (ii) reimburse the prevailing party the reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator costs, deposition costs, and other discovery costs incurred by the prevailing party.
 
4.      Appeals.
 
4.1         Following the entry of the Arbitration Award, either party (the “Appellant”) shall have a period of thirty (30) days in which to notify the other party (the “Appellee”), in writing, that it elects to appeal (the “Appeal”) the Arbitration Award (such notice, an “Appeal Notice”). The date the Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee is referred to herein as the “Appeal Date”. The Appeal Notice must be delivered to the Appellee in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3.1 above with respect to delivery of an Arbitration Notice and must describe the nature of the appeal and the remedies sought. In addition, together with its delivery of an Appeal Notice to the Appellee, the Appellant must also pay for (and provide proof of such payment to the Appellee together with its delivery of the Appeal Notice) a bond in the amount of 110% of the sum it owes to the Appellee as a result of the final decision made by the arbitrators that it is appealing. In the event neither party delivers an Appeal Notice to the other within the deadline prescribed in this Paragraph 4.1, each party shall lose its right to appeal and the decision of the arbitrator shall be final.
 
4.2         In the event an Appellant delivers an Appeal Notice to the Appellee in compliance with the provisions of Paragraph 4.1 above, the following provisions shall apply with respect to the Appeal:
 
(a)         The Appeal will be heard by a three (3) person arbitration panel (the “Appeal Panel”). Within ten (10) calendar days after the Appeal Date, the Appellee shall select and submit to the Appellant the names of five (5) arbitrators that are designated as “neutrals” or qualified arbitrators by Utah ADR Services (http://www.utahadrservices.com) (such five designated persons hereunder are referred to herein as the “Proposed Appeal Arbitrators”). For the avoidance of doubt, each Proposed Appeal Arbitrator must be qualified as a “neutral” with Utah ADR Services. Within ten (10) calendar days after the Appellee has submitted to the Appellant the names of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators, the Appellant must select, by written notice to the Appellee, three (3) of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators to act as the members of the Appeal Panel. If the Appellant fails to select three (3) of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators in writing within such 10-day period, then the Appellee may select such three (3) arbitrators from the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators by providing written notice of such selection to the Appellant. If the Appellee fails to identify the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators within the time period required above, then the Appellant may at any time prior to the Appellee designating the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators, select the names of the five (5) Proposed Appeal Arbitrators. The Appellee may then, within ten (10) calendar days after the Appellant has submitted notice of its Proposed Appeal Arbitrators to the Appellee, select, by written notice to the Appellant, three (3) of the Proposed Appeal Arbitrators to serve on the Appeal Panel. If the Appellee fails to select in writing and within such 10-day period the three (3) members of the Appeal Panel, then the Appellant may select such three (3) members of the Appeal Panel by providing written notice of such selection to the Appellee. After the three (3) members of the Appeal Panel are selected, the Appellee shall designate in writing to the Appellant the name of one of such three (3) arbitrators to serve as the lead arbitrator. Subject to Paragraph 4.2(d) below, the cost of the Appeal Panel must be paid entirely by the Appellant. If Utah ADR Services ceases to exist or to provide a list of neutrals, then the arbitrators shall be selected under the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association. The date that all three (3) selected arbitrators agree in writing to serve as the arbitrators hereunder is referred to herein as the “Appeal Commencement Date”.
 
 (b)         Within seven (7) days of the Appeal Commencement Date, Appellant shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to Appellee a memorandum in support of appeal describing in detail its basis and arguments for appealing the Arbitration Award (the “Memorandum in Support”). Within seven (7) days of Appellant’s delivery of the Memorandum in Support, Appellee shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to Appellant a memorandum in opposition to the Memorandum in Support (the “Memorandum in Opposition”). Within seven (7) days of Appellee’s delivery of the Memorandum in Opposition, Appellant shall deliver to the Appeal Panel and to Appellee a reply memorandum to the Memorandum in Opposition.
 
 
Arbitration Provisions, Page 4

 
(c)         The parties hereby agree that the Appeal must be heard by the Appeal Panel within thirty (30) calendar days of the Appeal Commencement Date and that the Appeal Panel’s Arbitration Award must be made within thirty (30) days after the Appeal is heard, and in any event within sixty (60) days of the Appeal Commencement Date. The Utah Rules of Evidence will apply to any final hearing before the Appeal Panel.
 
(d)         The Appeal Panel is hereby directed to require the losing party to (i) pay the full amount of any unpaid costs and fees of the Appeal Panel, and (ii) reimburse the prevailing party the reasonable attorneys’ fees, arbitrator costs, deposition costs, and other discovery costs incurred by the prevailing party.

Exhibit 10.33
 
 
SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
 
Effective Date: September 14, 2015
U.S. $1,005,000.00
 
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”), promises to pay to Typenex Co-Investment, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, or its successors or assigns (“Lender”), $1,005,000.00 and any interest, fees, charges, and late fees on the date that is twenty (20) months after the Purchase Price Date (the “Maturity Date”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance (including all Tranches (as defined below), both Conversion Eligible Tranches (as defined below) and Subsequent Tranches (as defined below) that have not yet become Conversion Eligible Tranches) at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the same is paid in full. This Secured Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) is issued and made effective as of September 14, 2015 (the “Effective Date”). This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 14, 2015, as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the “Purchase Agreement”). All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
 
Borrower agrees to pay $5,000.00 to Lender to cover Lender’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of this Note (the “Transaction Expense Amount”), all of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of this Note. The purchase price for this Note shall be $1,000,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”), computed as follows: $1,005,000.00 original principal balance, less the Transaction Expense Amount. The Purchase Price shall be payable by delivery to Borrower at Closing of the Secured Investor Note (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Investor Notes (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), and a wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amount of the Initial Cash Purchase Price (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).This Note shall be comprised of four (4) tranches (each, a “Tranche”), consisting of (i) an initial Tranche in an amount equal to $255,000.00 and any interest, costs, fees or charges accrued thereon or added thereto under the terms of this Note and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Initial Tranche”), and (ii) three (3) additional Tranches, each in the amount of $250,000.00, plus any interest, costs, fees or charges accrued thereon or added thereto under the terms of this Note and the other Transaction Documents (each, a “Subsequent Tranche”). The Initial Tranche shall correspond to the Initial Cash Purchase Price and the Transaction Expense Amount, and may be converted any time subsequent to the Purchase Price Date. The first Subsequent Tranche shall correspond to Secured Investor Note #1, the second Subsequent Tranche shall correspond to Investor Note #2, and the third Subsequent Tranche shall correspond to Investor Note #3. Lender’s right to convert any portion of any of the Subsequent Tranches is conditioned upon Lender’s payment in full of the Secured Investor Note or the Investor Note, as applicable corresponding to such Subsequent Tranche (upon the satisfaction of such condition, such Subsequent Tranche becomes a “Conversion Eligible Tranche”). In the event Lender exercises its Lender Offset Right (as defined below) with respect to a portion of an Investor Note and pays in full the remaining outstanding balance of such Investor Note, the Subsequent Tranche that corresponds to such Investor Note shall be deemed to be a Conversion Eligible Tranche only for the portion of such Tranche that was paid for in cash by Lender and the portion of such Investor Note that was offset pursuant to Lender’s exercise of the Lender Offset Right shall not be included in the applicable Conversion Eligible Tranche. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Initial Tranche shall be deemed a Conversion Eligible Tranche as of the Purchase Price Date for all purposes hereunder and may be converted in whole or in part at any time subsequent to the Purchase Price Date, and each Subsequent Tranche that becomes a Conversion Eligible Tranche may be converted in whole or in part at any time subsequent to the first date on which such Subsequent Tranche becomes a Conversion Eligible Tranche. For all purposes hereunder, Conversion Eligible Tranches shall be converted (or redeemed, as applicable) in order of the lowest-numbered Conversion Eligible Tranche and Conversion Eligible Tranches may be converted (or redeemed, as applicable) in one or more separate Conversions (as defined below), as determined in Lender’s sole discretion. At all times hereunder, the aggregate amount of any costs, fees or charges incurred by or assessable against Borrower hereunder, including, without limitation, any fees, charges or premiums incurred in connection with an Event of Default (as defined below), shall be added to the lowest-numbered then-current Conversion Eligible Tranche.
 
 
 

 
1. Payment; Prepayment. Provided there is an Outstanding Balance, on each Redemption Date (as defined below), Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the Redemption Amount (as defined below) due on such Redemption Date in accordance with Section 8. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Borrower has not received a Lender Conversion Notice (as defined below) or a Redemption Notice (as defined below) from Lender where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered and so long as no Event of Default has occurred since the Effective Date (whether declared by Lender or undeclared), then Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than five (5) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender to prepay the Outstanding Balance of this Note, in full, in accordance with this Section 1. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to Lender at its registered address and shall state: (i) that Borrower is exercising its right to prepay this Note, and (ii) the date of prepayment, which shall be not less than five (5) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”), Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of Lender as may be specified by Lender in writing to Borrower. If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note on or prior to the date that is six (6) months from the date hereof, Borrower shall make payment to Lender of an amount in cash equal to 135% (the “Prepayment Premium”) multiplied by the then Outstanding Balance of this Note (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”). If Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note after the date that is six (6) months from the date hereof, the Optional Prepayment amount shall be equal to a Prepayment Premium of 150% multiplied by the then Outstanding Balance of this Note. In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender prior to the Optional Prepayment Date or without delivering an Optional Prepayment Notice to Lender as set forth herein without Lender’s prior written consent, the Optional Prepayment Amount shall not be deemed to have been paid to Lender until the Optional Prepayment Date. Moreover, in such event the Optional Prepayment Liquidated Damages Amount will automatically be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note on the day Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount to Lender. In the event Borrower delivers the Optional Prepayment Amount without an Optional Prepayment Notice, then the Optional Prepayment Date will be deemed to be the date that is five (5) Trading Days from the date that the Optional Prepayment Amount was delivered to Lender. In addition, if on more than one occasion Borrower delivers an Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to Lender within two (2) Trading Days following the Optional Prepayment Date, Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay this Note.
 
2. Security. This Note is secured by that certain Security Agreement of even date herewith, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Security Agreement”), executed by Borrower in favor of Lender encumbering the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes, as more specifically set forth in the Security Agreement, all the terms and conditions of which are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Note.

3. Lender Optional Conversion.
 
3.1. Lender Conversion Price. Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the conversion price for each Lender Conversion (as defined below) shall be $0.30 (the “Lender Conversion Price”). However, in the event the Market Capitalization falls below $3,000,000.00 at any time, then in such event (a) the Lender Conversion Price for all Lender Conversions occurring after the first date of such occurrence shall equal the lower of the Lender Conversion Price and the Market Price as of any applicable date of Conversion, and (b) the true-up provisions of Section 11 below shall apply to all Lender Conversions that occur after the first date the Market Capitalization falls below $3,000,000.00, provided that all references to the “Redemption Notice” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to a “Lender Conversion Notice” for purposes of this Section 3.1, all references to “Redemption Conversion Shares” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to “Lender Conversion Shares” for purposes of this Section 3.1, and all references to the “Redemption Conversion Price” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to the “Lender Conversion Price” for purposes of this Section 3.1.
 
3.2. Lender Conversions. Lender has the right at any time after the date that is six (6) months from the date hereof until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, including without limitation (a) until any Optional Prepayment Date (even if Lender has received an Optional Prepayment Notice) or at any time thereafter with respect to any amount that is not prepaid, and (b) during or after any Fundamental Default Measuring Period, at its election, to convert (each instance of conversion is referred to herein as a “Lender Conversion”) all or any part of the Outstanding Balance into shares (“Lender Conversion Shares”) of fully paid and non-assessable common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Borrower as per the following conversion formula: the number of Lender Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “Conversion Amount”) divided by the Lender Conversion Price. Conversion notices in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Lender Conversion Notice”) may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method of Lender’s choice (including but not limited to facsimile, email, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all Lender Conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from Lender. Borrower shall deliver the Lender Conversion Shares from any Lender Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below.
 
4. Defaults and Remedies.
 
4.1. Defaults. The following are events of default under this Note (each, an “Event of Default”): (a) Borrower shall fail to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; or (b) Borrower shall fail to deliver any Lender Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof; or (c) Borrower shall fail to deliver any Redemption Conversion Shares (as defined below) or True-Up Shares (as defined below) in accordance with the terms hereof; or (d) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; or (e) Borrower shall generally fail to pay, or admit in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; or (f) Borrower shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (g) Borrower shall file a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); or (h) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or filed against Borrower; or (i) Borrower shall default or otherwise fail to observe or perform in any material respect any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement of Borrower contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, other than those specifically set forth in this Section 4.1 and Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement; or (j) any representation, warranty or other statement made or furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender herein, in any Transaction Document, or otherwise in connection with the issuance of this Note shall be false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished; or (k) the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction without Lender’s prior written consent; or (l) Borrower shall fail to maintain the Share Reserve as required under the Purchase Agreement; or (m) Borrower effectuates a reverse split of its Common Stock without twenty (20) Trading Days prior written notice to Lender; or (n) any money judgment, writ or similar process shall be entered or filed against Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than $100,000.00, and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) calendar days unless otherwise consented to by Lender; or (o) Borrower shall fail to deliver to Lender original signature pages to all Transaction Documents within five (5) Trading Days of the Purchase Price Date; or (p) Borrower shall fail to be DWAC Eligible; or (q) Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any covenant set forth in Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement.

4.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall within one (1) Trading Day deliver written notice thereof via facsimile, email or reputable overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (an “Event of Default Notice”) to Lender. At any time and from time to time after the earlier of Lender’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and Lender becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, elect to increase the Outstanding Balance by applying the Default Effect (subject to the limitation set forth below) via written notice to Borrower without accelerating the Outstanding Balance, in which event the Outstanding Balance shall be increased as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default pursuant to the Default Effect, but the Outstanding Balance shall not be immediately due and payable unless so declared by Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, if Lender elects to apply the Default Effect pursuant to this sentence, it shall reserve the right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable at any time and no such election by Lender shall be deemed to be a waiver of its right to declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable as set forth herein unless otherwise agreed to by Lender in writing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (d), (e), (f), (g) or (h) of Section 4.1, the Outstanding Balance as of the date of acceleration shall become immediately and automatically due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount, without any written notice required by Lender. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (“Default Interest”); provided, however, that no Default Interest shall accrue during the Fundamental Default Measuring Period. Additionally, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower may, at its option, pay any Lender Conversion in cash instead of Lender Conversion Shares by paying to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date (as defined below) a cash amount equal to the number of Lender Conversion Shares set forth in the applicable Lender Conversion Notice multiplied by the highest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock that occurs during the period beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred and ending on the date of the applicable Lender Conversion Notice. In connection with acceleration described herein, Lender need not provide, and Borrower hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and Lender may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.2. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Notes as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

4.3. Fundamental Default Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in addition to all other remedies set forth herein, after giving effect to the Lender Offset Right (as defined below), which shall occur automatically upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Default, the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount shall be added to the Outstanding Balance upon Lender’s delivery to Borrower of a notice (which notice Lender may deliver to Borrower at any time following the occurrence of a Fundamental Default) setting forth its election to declare a Fundamental Default and the Fundamental Liquidated Damages Amount that will be added to the Outstanding Balance.
 
4.4. Certain Additional Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event Borrower fails to make any payment or otherwise to deliver any Conversion Shares as and when required under this Note, then (a) the Lender Conversion Price for all Lender Conversions occurring after the date of such failure to pay shall equal the lower of the Lender Conversion Price and the Market Price as of any applicable date of Conversion, and (b) the true-up provisions of Section 11 below shall apply to all Lender Conversions that occur after the date of such failure to pay, provided that all references to the “Redemption Notice” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to a “Lender Conversion Notice” for purposes of this Section 4.4, all references to “Redemption Conversion Shares” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to “Lender Conversion Shares” for purposes of this Section 4.4, and all references to the “Redemption Conversion Price” in Section 11 shall be replaced with references to the “Lender Conversion Price” for purposes of this Section 4.4. For the avoidance of doubt, Lender’s exercise of the rights granted to it pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to continue paying the Redemption Amount on all future Redemption Dates.
 
4.5. Cross Default. A breach or default by Borrower of any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other Agreements in any material respect, shall, at the option of Lender, be considered an Event of Default under this Note, in which event Lender shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of Lender under the terms of this Note.
 
5. Unconditional Obligation; No Offset. Borrower acknowledges that this Note is an unconditional, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower not subject to offset (except as set forth in Section 21 below), deduction or counterclaim of any kind. Borrower hereby waives any rights of offset it now has or may have hereafter against Lender, its successors and assigns, and agrees to make the payments or Conversions called for herein in accordance with the terms of this Note.
 
6. Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.
 
7. Rights Upon Issuance of Securities.
 
7.1. Subsequent Equity Sales. If Borrower or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time this Note is outstanding, shall sell, issue or grant any Common Stock to Lender under this Note, including without limitation any Deemed Issuance, at an effective price per share less than the then effective Lender Conversion Price (such issuance is referred to herein as a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, the Lender Conversion Price shall be automatically reduced and only reduced to equal such lower effective price per share. Such adjustments described above to the Lender Conversion Price shall only apply for a period of twenty (20) Trading Days from issuance of the shares with the lower effective price per share, and shall be made whenever Common Stock is issued to Lender.
 
 
5

 
7.2. Adjustment of Lender Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Lender Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7.2 occurs during the period that a Lender Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Lender Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
 
7.3. Other Events. In the event that Borrower (or any subsidiary) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect Lender from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then Borrower’s board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Lender Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of Lender, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.3 will increase the Lender Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7, provided further that if Lender does not reasonably accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then Borrower’s board of directors and Lender shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by Borrower.
 
8. Redemptions.
 
8.1. Redemption Conversions. Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Purchase Price Date and not more than one (1) time per calendar month thereafter until the Maturity Date (each, a “Redemption Date”), Lender shall have the right to redeem a portion of the Note in any amount up to the Redemption Amount by providing Borrower with a notice in substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, an “Redemption Notice”). Upon its receipt of a Redemption Notice, Borrower shall pay the applicable Redemption Amount to Lender in accordance with the terms of this Section 8. Payment of each Redemption Amount may be made (a) in cash; or (b) by converting such Redemption Amount into shares of Common Stock (“Redemption Conversion Shares”, and together with the Lender Conversion Shares, the “Conversion Shares”) in accordance with this Section 8 (each an “Redemption Conversion”) per the following formula: the number of Redemption Conversion Shares equals the portion of the applicable Redemption Amount being converted divided by the Redemption Conversion Price, or (c) by any combination of the foregoing, so long as the cash is delivered to Lender on the Trading Day immediately following Redemption Date and the Redemption Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender on or before the applicable Delivery Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower will not be entitled to elect a Redemption Conversion with respect to any portion of any applicable Redemption Amount and shall be required to pay the entire amount of such Redemption Amount in cash if on the applicable Redemption Date there is an Equity Conditions Failure, and such failure is not waived in writing by Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Borrower shall only be obligated to deliver Redemption Amounts with respect to Tranches that have become Conversion Eligible Tranches and shall have no obligation to pay to Lender any Redemption Amount with respect to any Tranche that has not become a Conversion Eligible Tranche. In furtherance thereof, in the event Borrower has repaid all Conversion Eligible Tranches pursuant to the terms of this Note, it shall have no further obligations to deliver any Redemption Amount to Lender unless and until any Subsequent Tranche that was not previously a Conversion Eligible Tranche becomes a Conversion Eligible Tranche pursuant to the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding that failure to repay this Note in full by the Maturity Date is an Event of Default, the Redemption Dates shall continue after the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 8 until the Outstanding Balance is repaid in full.
 
 
6

 
8.2. Allocation of Redemption Amounts. Following its receipt of a Redemption Notice, Borrower may either ratify Lender’s proposed allocation in the applicable Redemption Notice or elect to change the allocation by written notice to Lender by email or fax within twenty-four (24) hours of its receipt of such Redemption Notice, so long as the sum of the cash payments and the amount of Redemption Conversions equal the applicable Redemption Amount. If Borrower fails to notify Lender of its election to change the allocation prior to the deadline set forth in the previous sentence (and seek approval to increase the amount payable in cash), it shall be deemed to have ratified and accepted the allocation set forth in the applicable Redemption Notice prepared by Lender. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the amounts and calculations set forth thereon are subject to correction or adjustment because of error, mistake, or any adjustment resulting from an Event of Default or other adjustment permitted under the Transaction Documents (an “Adjustment”). Furthermore, no error or mistake in the preparation of such notices, or failure to apply any Adjustment that could have been applied prior to the preparation of a Redemption Notice may be deemed a waiver of Lender’s right to enforce the terms of any Note, even if such error, mistake, or failure to include an Adjustment arises from Lender’s own calculation. Borrower shall deliver the Redemption Conversion Shares from any Redemption Conversion to Lender in accordance with Section 9 below on or before each applicable Delivery Date. If Borrower elects to pay a Redemption Amount in cash, such payment must be delivered on the Trading Day immediately following the Redemption Date. If Borrowers elects to make a payment in cash and fails to make such payment by the required due date on more than one occasion, Borrower shall lose the right to make payments of Redemption Amounts in cash in the future without Lender’s written consent.
 
9. Method of Conversion Share Delivery. On or before the close of business on the third (3rd) Trading Day following the Redemption Date or the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of delivery of a Lender Conversion Notice, as applicable (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall, provided it is DWAC Eligible at such time, deliver or cause its transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares electronically via DWAC to the account designated by Lender in the applicable Lender Conversion Notice or Redemption Notice. If Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, it shall deliver to Lender or its broker (as designated in the Lender Conversion Notice or Redemption Notice, as applicable), via reputable overnight courier, a certificate representing the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its designee. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless Lender or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above, provided that the Borrower shall not be responsible for failures solely due to Lender or its broker’s failure to take required action(s) to receive such Conversion Shares.
 
10. Conversion Delays. If Borrower fails to deliver Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares in accordance with the timeframes stated in Sections 9 or 11, as applicable, Lender, at any time prior to the earlier of (i) five (5) Trading Days after the actual receipt of such Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares; or (ii) selling all of those Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares, as applicable, may rescind in whole or in part that particular Conversion attributable to the unsold Conversion Shares or True-Up Shares, with a corresponding increase to the Outstanding Balance (any returned amount will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”)). In addition, for the first Lender Conversion that Lender Conversion Shares are not delivered by the fourth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion), a late fee equal to the greater of (a) $100.00 and (b) .005% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Lender Conversion shall not exceed 200% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after the third Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion) until Lender Conversion Share delivery is made; and such late fee will be added to the Outstanding Balance (such fees, the “Conversion Delay Late Fees”). For each subsequent Lender Conversion that Lender Conversion Shares are not delivered by the fourth Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion), the Conversion Delay Late Fees shall be equal to the greater of (a) $500.00 and (b) 2% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.00 (but in any event the cumulative amount of such late fees for each Lender Conversion shall not exceed 200% of the applicable Lender Conversion Share Value) will be assessed for each day after the third Trading Day (inclusive of the day of the Lender Conversion) until Lender Conversion Share delivery is made; and such Conversion Delay Late Fees will be added to the Outstanding Balance. For illustration purposes only, if Lender delivers a Lender Conversion Notice to Borrower pursuant to which Borrower is required to deliver 100,000 Lender Conversion Shares to Lender and on the Delivery Date such Lender Conversion Shares have a Lender Conversion Share Value of $20,000.00 (assuming a Closing Trade Price on the Delivery Date of $0.20 per share of Common Stock), then in such event a Conversion Delay Late Fee in the amount of $500.00 per day (the greater of $500.00 per day and $20,000.00 multiplied by 2%, which is $400.00) would be added to the Outstanding Balance of the Note until such Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender. For purposes of this example, if the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender twenty (20) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $10,000.00 (20 days multiplied by $500.00 per day). If the Lender Conversion Shares are delivered to Lender one hundred (100) days after the applicable Delivery Date, the total Conversion Delay Late Fees that would be added to the Outstanding Balance would be $40,000.00 (100 days multiplied by $500.00 per day, but capped at 200% of the Lender Conversion Share Value).
 
 
7

 
11. True-Up. On the date that is twenty (20) Trading Days (a “True-Up Date”) from each date that the Redemption Conversion Shares delivered by Borrower to Lender become Free Trading, there shall be a true-up where Borrower shall deliver to Lender additional Redemption Conversion Shares (“True-Up Shares”) if the Redemption Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is less than the Redemption Conversion Price used in the applicable Redemption Notice. In such event, Borrower shall deliver to Lender within three (3) Trading Days of the True-Up Date (the “True-Up Share Delivery Date”) a number of True-Up Shares equal to the difference between the number of Redemption Conversion Shares that would have been delivered to Lender on the True-Up Date based on the Redemption Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date and the number of Redemption Conversion Shares originally delivered to Lender pursuant to the applicable Redemption Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Redemption Conversion Price as of the True-Up Date is higher than the Redemption Conversion Price set forth in the applicable Redemption Notice, then Borrower shall have no obligation to deliver True-Up Shares to Lender, nor shall Lender have any obligation to return any excess Redemption Conversion Shares to Borrower under any circumstance. For the convenience of Borrower only, Lender may, in its sole discretion, deliver to Borrower a notice (pursuant to a form of notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C) informing Borrower of the number of True-Up Shares it is obligated to deliver to Lender as of any given True-Up Date, provided that if Lender does not deliver any such notice, Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to deliver True-Up Shares pursuant to this Section 11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower fails to deliver any required True-Up Shares on or before any applicable True-Up Share Delivery Date, then in such event the Outstanding Balance of this Note will automatically increase by a sum equal to the number of True-Up Shares deliverable as of the applicable True-Up Date multiplied by the Market Price for the Common Stock as of the applicable True-Up Date (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations that any such increase will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144).
 
12. Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time Lender shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause Lender (together with its affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the “Maximum Percentage”), then Borrower must not issue to Lender shares of Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. The shares of Common Stock issuable to Lender that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the “Ownership Limitation Shares”. Borrower will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of Lender. From time to time, Lender may notify Borrower in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to Lender without causing Lender to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to Lender, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the term “4.99%” above shall be replaced with “9.99%” at such time as the Market Capitalization is less than $10,000,000.00. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term “4.99%” is replaced with “9.99%” pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to “9.99%” shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by Lender as set forth below. By written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof. The foregoing 61-day notice requirement is enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all affiliates and assigns of Lender.
 
13. [Intentionally removed].
 
14. Payment of Collection Costs. If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note, then Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by Lender for such collection, enforcement or action including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Borrower also agrees to pay for any costs, fees or charges of its transfer agent that are charged to Lender pursuant to any Conversion or issuance of shares pursuant to this Note.
 
15. Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender has the right to have any such opinion provided by its counsel. Lender also has the right to have any such opinion provided by Borrower’s counsel.
 
16. Governing Law. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Utah or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Utah. The provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement to determine the proper venue for any disputes are incorporated herein by this reference.
 
 
8

 
17. Resolution of Disputes.
 
17.1. Arbitration of Disputes. By its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the Arbitration Provisions (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) set forth as an exhibit to the Purchase Agreement.
 
17.2. Calculation Disputes. Notwithstanding the Arbitration Provisions, in the case of a dispute as to any Calculation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), such dispute will be resolved in the manner set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
 
18. Cancellation. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance (including without limitation delivery of True-Up Shares pursuant to the payment of the final Redemption Amount, if applicable), this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.
 
19. Amendments. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.
 
20. Assignments. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower.
 
21. Offset Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents, (a) the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Lender maintains a right of offset pursuant to the terms of the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes that, under certain circumstances, permits Lender to deduct amounts owed by Borrower under this Note from amounts otherwise owed by Lender under the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes (the “Lender Offset Right”), and (b) at any time Borrower shall be entitled to deduct and offset any amount owing by the initial Lender under the Secured Investor Note and the Investor Notes, as applicable, from any amount owed by Borrower under this Note (the “Borrower Offset Right”). In order to exercise the Borrower Offset Right, Borrower must deliver to Lender (a) a completed and signed Borrower Offset Right Notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, (b) the original Investor Note being offset marked “cancelled” or, in the event the applicable Investor Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost note affidavit in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender, and (c) a check payable to Lender in the amount of $250.00. In the event that Borrower’s exercise of the Borrower Offset Right results in the full satisfaction of Borrower’s obligations under this Note, Lender shall return the original Note to Borrower marked “cancelled” or, in the event this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost note affidavit in a form reasonably acceptable to Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall not incur any Prepayment Premium set forth in Section 1 hereof with respect to any portions of this Note that are satisfied by way of a Borrower Offset Right.
 
22. Time is of the Essence. Time is expressly made of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Note and the documents and instruments entered into in connection herewith.
 
23. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the subsection of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”
 
 
9

 
24. Liquidated Damages. Lender and Borrower agree that in the event Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Note, Lender’s damages would be uncertain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates, future share prices, future trading volumes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, Lender and Borrower agree that any fees, balance adjustments, Default Interest or other charges assessed under this Note are not penalties but instead are intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages (under Lender’s and Borrower’s expectations that any such liquidated damages will tack back to the Purchase Price Date for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144).
 
25. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF LENDER AND BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO DEMAND THAT ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING UNDER COMMON LAW OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OR REGULATION. FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PARTY IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

ATTACHMENT 1
DEFINITIONS
 
For purposes of this Note, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
 
A1. Adjusted Outstanding Balance” means the Outstanding Balance of this Note as of the date the applicable Fundamental Default occurred less any Conversion Delay Late Fees included in such Outstanding Balance.
 
A2. Bloomberg” means Bloomberg L.P. (or if that service is not then reporting the relevant information regarding the Common Stock, a comparable reporting service of national reputation selected by Lender and reasonably satisfactory to Borrower).
 
A3. Closing Bid Price” and “Closing Trade Price” means the last closing bid price and last closing trade price, respectively, for the Common Stock on its principal market, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if its principal market begins to operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the closing bid price or the closing trade price (as the case may be) then the last bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if its principal market is not the principal securities exchange or trading market for the Common Stock, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or trading market where the Common Stock is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, of the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price or last trade price, respectively, is reported for the Common Stock by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices, or the ask prices, respectively, of any market makers for the Common Stock as reported by OTC Markets Group, Inc., and any successor thereto. If the Closing Bid Price or the Closing Trade Price cannot be calculated for the Common Stock on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price or the Closing Trade Price (as the case may be) of the Common Stock on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by Lender and Borrower. If Lender and Borrower are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Common Stock, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 17.2. All such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period.
 
A4. Conversion” means a Lender Conversion under Section 3 or a Redemption Conversion under Section 8.
 
A5. Conversion Eligible Outstanding Balance” means the Outstanding Balance of this Note less the sum of each Subsequent Tranche that has not yet become a Conversion Eligible Tranche (i.e., Lender has not yet paid the outstanding balance of the Secured Investor Note or Investor Note that corresponds to such Subsequent Tranche).
 
A6. Conversion Factor” means 60%, subject to the following adjustments. If at any time the third lowest intra-day trade price of the Common Stock in the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding any date of measurement is below $0.10, then in such event the then-current Conversion Factor shall be reduced by 5% for all future Conversions (subject to other reductions set forth in this section). Additionally, if at any time after the Effective Date, Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, then the then-current Conversion Factor will automatically be reduced by 5% for all future Conversions. If at any time after the Effective Date, the Conversion Shares are not DTC Eligible, then the then-current Conversion Factor will automatically be reduced by an additional 5% for all future Conversions. Finally, in addition to the Default Effect, if any Major Default occurs after the Effective Date, the Conversion Factor shall automatically be reduced for all future Conversions by an additional 5% for each of the first three (3) Major Defaults that occur after the Effective Date (for the avoidance of doubt, each occurrence of any Major Default shall be deemed to be a separate occurrence for purposes of the foregoing reductions in Conversion Factor, even if the same Major Default occurs three (3) separate times). For example, the first time Borrower is not DWAC Eligible, the Conversion Factor for future Conversions thereafter will be reduced from 60% to 55% for purposes of this example. Following such event, the first time the Conversion Shares are no longer DTC Eligible, the Conversion Factor for future Conversions thereafter will be reduced from 55% to 50% for purposes of this example. If, thereafter, there are three (3) separate occurrences of a Major Default pursuant to Section 4.1(c), then for purposes of this example the Conversion Factor would be reduced by 5% for the first such occurrence, and so on for each of the second and third occurrences of such Major Default.

Exhibit 10.34
 
 
Membership Interest Pledge Agreement

This MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of September 14, 2015 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), and Typenex Co-Investment, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (the “Pledgor”).
 
A.           Pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Pledgor and Company (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Pledgor has issued to Company a Secured Investor Note in the principal amount of $250,000.00 (the “Note”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement.
 
B.           The Pledgor has agreed to pledge a 40% membership interest in Typenex Medical, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company (“Typenex Medical”), to secure the Pledgor’s performance of its obligations under the Note.
 
C.           Company is willing to accept the Note only upon receiving the Pledgor’s pledge of such membership interest as set forth in this Agreement.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
1.           Grant of Security Interest.  The Pledgor hereby pledges to Company as collateral and security for the Secured Obligations (as defined in Section 2) a 40% membership interest in Typenex Medical (the “Pledged Interest”).  Company shall have the right to exercise the rights and remedies set forth herein and in the Note if a Payment Default (as defined in the Note) shall occur. Such Pledged Interest, together with any additions, replacements, accessions or substitutes therefor or proceeds thereof, are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Collateral”.
 
2.           Secured Obligations.  During the term hereof, the Collateral shall secure the performance by the Pledgor of all of its payment obligations under the Note (the “Secured Obligations”).
 
3.           Perfection of Security Interests.  The Pledgor hereby authorizes Company to file and record, as the Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, any financing statements, any carbon, photographic or other reproduction of a financing statement, or other paper that may be necessary in order to create, preserve, perfect or validate any security interest or to enable Company to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to any of the Collateral.
 
4.           Representations and Warranties of the Pledgor.  The Pledgor represents and warrants hereby to Company as follows with respect to the Pledged Interest:
 
4.1.           Title.  The Pledgor is the sole owner of the Pledged Interest, having good and marketable title thereto; provided, however, that the Pledged Interest may be subject to other liens and encumbrances. The Pledged Interest is subject to the applicable transfer restrictions which may be imposed under the operating agreement of Typenex Medical or other governing documents of Typenex Medical or applicable federal and state securities laws.
 
4.2.           Binding Effect.  This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Pledgor enforceable in accordance with its terms (except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium, and similar laws now or hereafter in effect).
 
 
 

 
5.           Preservation of the Value of the Collateral.  The Pledgor shall pay all taxes, charges, and assessments against the Collateral and do all acts necessary to preserve and maintain the value thereof.
 
6.           Collection of Distributions and Interest.  During the term of this Agreement and so long as no Payment Default has occurred and is continuing under the Note, the Pledgor is authorized to collect all distributions, interest payments, and other amounts that may be, or may become, due on any of the Collateral.
 
7.           Voting Rights.  Unless and until Company has rightfully exercised its rights under this Agreement to foreclose its security interest in the Collateral, the Pledgor shall have the right to exercise any voting rights evidenced by, or relating to, the Collateral.
 
8.           Company Not a Member or Partner.  The pledge of the Pledged Interest hereunder does not, in and of itself, constitute an assignment of any rights or obligations of the Pledgor as a member in or of Typenex Medical.  Company is not, in any manner or respect, a member, partner or joint venturer in or with Typenex Medical.
 
9.           Remedies upon Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Payment Default under the Note (“Event of Default”), Company may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under applicable law (irrespective of whether such applies to the affected items of Collateral).  The Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least fifteen (15) calendar days’ notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which a private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.

17.           Waivers and Amendments.
 
17.1.           Non-waiver.  No failure or delay on either party’s part in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other further exercise thereof or of any other right.
 
17.2.           Amendments and Waivers.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by written instruments signed by the Pledgor and Company; provided, however, that the Pledgor may amend this Agreement to add additional Secured Investor Notes or Investor Notes (as such terms are defined in the Purchase Agreement) to the definition of “Note” in the Recitals above without Company’s consent thereto and in such event it shall be sufficient to amend this Agreement for the Pledgor to give written notice of such amendment to Company.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Pledgor amends this Agreement as permitted in the preceding sentence, any such Secured Investor Notes or Investor Notes that are added to the definition of “Note” set forth in the recitals above shall automatically become a Note for all purposes hereunder and shall be secured by the Collateral pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein from the date of such amendment.

21.           Construction and Interpretation. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and each party has been represented by its or its own legal counsel. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
 
22.           Successor and Assigns; Assignment.  The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and, subject to the provisions of this Section, the benefits thereof shall insure to, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the rights, interests or obligations of Company hereunder may not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by Company without the prior written consent of the Pledgor, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Pledgor; provided, however, that in the case of a merger, sale of substantially all of Company’s assets or other corporate reorganization, the Pledgor shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay such consent.

This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement of even date herewith, entered into by and between Investor and Company (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Company issued to Investor that certain Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,005,000.00 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Company Note”), convertible into shares of Company’s Common Stock. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement.
 
1.           Principal and Interest. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance and any unpaid late fees or other fees under this Note at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until the full amount of the principal and fees has been paid. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in no event shall the applicable interest rate at any time exceed the maximum interest rate allowed under applicable law, as provided in Section 12 below. The entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, under this Note, shall be due and payable on the date that is twenty (20) months from the date hereof (the “Investor Note Maturity Date”); provided, however, that Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to extend the Investor Note Maturity Date for up to thirty (30) days by delivering written notice of such election to Company at any time prior to the Investor Note Maturity Date.
 
2.           Payment. Unless prepaid, all principal and accrued interest under this Note is payable in one lump sum on the Investor Note Maturity Date. All payments of interest and principal shall be (i) in lawful money of the United States of America, and (ii) in the form of immediately available funds. All payments shall be applied first to costs of collection, if any, then to accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter to principal. Payment of principal and interest hereunder shall be delivered to Company at the address furnished to Investor for that purpose.
 
3.           Prepayment by Investor. Investor may, with Company’s consent, pay, without penalty, all or any portion of the outstanding balance along with any accrued but unpaid interest on this Note at any time prior to the Investor Note Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the date that is ninety (90) days from the date hereof (the “Conditional Prepayment Date”), Investor shall be obligated to prepay the outstanding balance of this Note if the each of the following conditions is met: (a) no Event of Default (as defined in the Company Note) shall have occurred under the Company Note during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Conditional Prepayment Date; (b) the average and median daily dollar volume of the Common Stock on its principal market for the twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Note) immediately preceding the Conditional Prepayment Date is greater than $10,000.00; and (c) the Market Capitalization (as defined in the Company Note) of the Common Stock on the Conditional Prepayment Date is greater than $10,000,000.00.

Other than with respect to an Automatic Offset, Investor may only elect to exercise the Investor Offset Right by delivering to Company an offset notice in a form substantially similar to Exhibit D to the Company Note or another form of Investor’s choosing.

If any default, other than a Payment Default (as defined below), is curable, then the default may be cured (and no Investor Note Default will have occurred) if Investor, after receiving written notice from Company demanding cure of such default, either (i) cures the default within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of such notice, or (ii) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps that Company deems in Company’s reasonable discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter diligently continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

8.           Binding Effect; Assignment. This Note shall be binding on the Parties and their respective heirs, successors, and assigns; provided, however, that neither Party shall assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that Investor may assign this Note to any of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of Company and, furthermore, Company agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to any other assignment of this Note by Investor.

6.           Authorized Action by Secured Party. Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) and agrees that Secured Party may perform (but Secured Party shall not be obligated to and shall incur no liability to Debtor or any third party for failure so to do) any act which Debtor is obligated by this Agreement to perform, and to exercise such rights and powers as Debtor might exercise with respect to the Collateral, including the right to (a) collect by legal proceedings or otherwise and endorse, receive and receipt for all dividends, interest, payments, proceeds and other sums and property now or hereafter payable on or on account of the Collateral; (b) enter into any extension, reorganization, deposit, merger, consolidation or other agreement pertaining to, or deposit, surrender, accept, hold or apply other property in exchange for the Collateral; (c) make any compromise or settlement, and take any action Secured Party deems advisable, with respect to the Collateral; (d) file a copy of this Agreement with any governmental agency, body or authority, at the sole cost and expense of Debtor; (e) insure, process and preserve the Collateral; (f) pay any indebtedness of Debtor relating to the Collateral; (g) execute and file UCC financing statements and other documents, certificates, instruments and agreements with respect to the Collateral or as otherwise required or permitted hereunder; and (h) take any and all appropriate action and execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or useful to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that Secured Party shall not exercise any such powers granted pursuant to clauses (a) through (c) above prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall only exercise such powers during the continuance of an Event of Default. The powers conferred on Secured Party under this Section 6 are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Secured Party shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither Secured Party nor any of its stockholders, directors, officers, managers, employees or agents shall be responsible to Debtor for any act or failure to act, except with respect to Secured Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Nothing in this Section 6 shall be deemed an authorization for Debtor to take any action that it is otherwise expressly prohibited from undertaking by way of other provision of this Agreement.
 
7.           Default and Remedies.
 
7.1.           Default. Debtor shall be deemed in default under this Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note).
 
7.2.           Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC, all rights granted by this Agreement and by law, including, without limiting the foregoing, (a) the right to require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place to be designated by Secured Party, and (b) the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose Secured Party may enter upon premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the Collateral therefrom. Debtor hereby agrees that fifteen (15) days’ notice of a public sale of any Collateral or notice of the date after which a private sale of any Collateral may take place is reasonable. In addition, Debtor waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of Secured Party’s rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, Secured Party’s right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of Collateral and to exercise Secured Party’s rights and remedies with respect thereto. Secured Party may also have a receiver appointed to take charge of all or any portion of the Collateral and to exercise all rights of Secured Party under this Agreement. Secured Party may exercise any of its rights under this Section 7.2 without demand or notice of any kind. The remedies in this Agreement, including without limitation this Section 7.2, are in addition to, not in limitation of, any other right, power, privilege, or remedy, either in law, in equity, or otherwise, to which Secured Party may be entitled. No failure or delay on the part of Secured party in exercising any right, power, or remedy will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. All of Secured Party’s rights and remedies, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any other agreement, instrument or document shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.

7.3.           Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Secured Party to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Debtor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Secured Party (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Secured Party to prepare Collateral for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as Debtor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Secured Party against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Secured Party a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by Secured Party, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Secured Party in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Debtor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Secured Party would fulfill Secured Party’s duties under the UCC in Secured Party’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Secured Party shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to Debtor or to impose any duties on Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.
 
7.4.           Marshalling. Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future Collateral for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or to resort to such Collateral or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such Collateral and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, Debtor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of Collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Secured Party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, Debtor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

7.5.           Application of Collateral Proceeds. The proceeds and/or avails of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Secured Party at the time of, or received by Secured Party after, the occurrence of an Event of Default) shall be paid to and applied as follows:
 
(a)           First, to the payment of reasonable costs and expenses, including all amounts expended to preserve the value of the Collateral, of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale and the exercise of any other rights or remedies, and of all proper fees, expenses, liability and advances, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or made hereunder by Secured Party;
 
(b)           Second, to the payment to Secured Party of the amount then owing or unpaid on the Note (to be applied first to accrued interest and second to outstanding principal) and all amounts owed under any of the other Transaction Documents; and
 
(c)           Third, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to Debtor, its successors and assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Each waiver or consent under any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instances for the purpose for which given.
 
8.4.           Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Secured Party and Debtor and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Debtor may not sell, assign or delegate rights and obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Secured Party.
 
8.5.           Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of Secured Party under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to Secured Party by virtue of any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, or the Note, all of which rights, powers, and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing Secured Party’s rights hereunder. Debtor waives any right to require Secured Party to proceed against any person or entity or to exhaust any Collateral or to pursue any remedy in Secured Party’s power.

8.6.           Partial Invalidity. If any part of this Agreement is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of the parties to the fullest extent permitted and the balance of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
 
8.7.           Expenses. Debtor shall pay on demand all reasonable fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by Secured Party in connection with the custody, preservation or sale of, or other realization on, any of the Collateral or the enforcement or attempt to enforce any of the Obligations which are not performed as and when required by this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.37
 
 
THIS NOTE AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THIS NOTE AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR APPLICABLE EXEMPTION OR SAFE HARBOR PROVISION.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Issuer” of this Security) with at least 125,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding, issues this Security and promises to pay to JMJ Financial, a Nevada sole proprietorship, or its Assignees (the “Investor”) the Principal Sum along with the Interest Rate and any other fees according to the terms herein.  This Note will become effective only upon execution by both parties and delivery of the first payment of Consideration by the Investor (the “Effective Date”).

The Principal Sum is up to $1,000,000 (one million) plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees.  The Consideration is $900,000 (nine hundred thousand) payable by wire (there exists a $100,000 original issue discount (the “OID”)).  The Investor shall pay $350,000 of Consideration upon closing of this Note.  The Investor may pay additional Consideration to the Issuer in such amounts and at such dates as the Investor may choose, however, the Issuer has the right to reject any of those payments within 2 business days of receipt of rejected payments.  THE PRINCIPAL SUM DUE TO THE INVESTOR SHALL BE BASED ON THE CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY PAID BY INVESTOR (PLUS AN APPROXIMATE 10% ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT THAT IS BASED ON THE CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY PAID BY THE INVESTOR AS WELL AS ANY OTHER INTEREST OR FEES) SUCH THAT THE ISSUER IS ONLY REQUIRED TO REPAY THE AMOUNT FUNDED AND THE ISSUER IS NOT REQUIRED TO REPAY ANY UNFUNDED PORTION OF THIS NOTE.  The Maturity Date is two years from the Effective Date of each payment (the “Maturity Date”) and is the date upon which the Principal Sum of this Note, as well as any unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable.  The Conversion Price is the lesser of $0.75 or 65% of the average of the two lowest closing prices in the 20 trading days previous to the conversion (In the case that conversion shares are not deliverable by DWAC an additional 10% discount will apply; and if the shares are ineligible for deposit into the DTC system and only eligible for Xclearing deposit an additional 5% discount shall apply; in the case of both an additional cumulative 15% discount shall apply), provided, however, that unless otherwise agreed by mutual written agreement the Conversion Price shall not be less than $0.001.  Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both parties, at no time will the Investor convert any amount of the Note into common stock that would result in the Investor owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding.

1.      Interest and Repayment.  A one-time Interest charge of 12% shall be applied to the Principal Sum.  The Interest is in addition to the OID, and that OID remains payable regardless of time and manner of payment by the Issuer.  The Issuer may repay a payment of Consideration under this Note on or before 180 days after its Effective Date in an amount equal to 140% of the sum of the Principal Sum being repaid plus all accrued and unpaid interest, OID, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts due on such Principal Sum.  The Issuer may not repay any payment of Consideration after 180 days after its Effective Date prior to its Maturity Date without written approval from the Investor.

2.      Conversion. The Investor has the right, at any time after the Effective Date, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Sum and accrued interest (and any other fees) into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Issuer as per this conversion formula:  Number of shares receivable upon conversion equals the dollar conversion amount divided by the Conversion Price.  Conversions may be delivered to the Issuer by method of the Investor’s choice (including but not limited to email, facsimile, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from the Investor.  If no objection is delivered from the Issuer to the Investor regarding any variable or calculation of the conversion notice within one business day of delivery of the conversion notice, the Issuer shall have been thereafter deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and irrevocably ratified such notice of conversion and waived any objection thereto.  The Issuer shall deliver the shares from any conversion to the Investor (in any name directed by the Investor) within 3 (three) business days of conversion notice delivery.

3.      Conversion Delays.  If the Issuer fails to deliver shares in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section 2, the Investor, at any time prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind any portion, in whole or in part, of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Issuer (under the Investor’s and the Issuer’s expectations that any returned conversion amounts will tack back to the original date of the Note).  In addition, for each conversion, in the event that shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $2,000 per day will be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until share delivery is made; and such penalty will be added to the Principal Sum of the Note (under the Investor’s and the Issuer’s expectations that any penalty amounts will tack back to the original date of the Note).

4.      Reservation of Shares.  At all times during which this Note is convertible, the Issuer will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note.  The Issuer will at all times reserve at least 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock for conversion.

5.      This Section Intentionally Left Blank.

6.      This Section Intentionally Left Blank.

7.      Default.  The following are events of default under this Note: (i) the Issuer shall fail to pay any principal under the Note when due and payable (or payable by conversion) thereunder; or (ii) the Issuer shall fail to pay any interest or any other amount under the Note when due and payable (or payable by conversion) thereunder; or (iii) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over the Issuer or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days; or (iv) the Issuer shall become insolvent or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; or (v) the Issuer shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (vi) the Issuer shall file a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); or (vii) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or filed against the Issuer which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days; or (viii) the Issuer shall lose its status as “DTC Eligible” or the Issuer’s shareholders shall lose the ability to deposit (either electronically or by physical certificates, or otherwise) shares into the DTC System; or (ix) the Issuer shall become delinquent in its filing requirements as a fully-reporting issuer registered with the SEC; or (x) the Issuer shall fail to meet all requirements to satisfy the availability of Rule 144 to the Investor or its assigns including but not limited to timely fulfillment of its periodic filing requirements as a fully-reporting issuer registered with the SEC, requirements for XBRL filings, and requirements for disclosure of financial statements on its website.

8.      Remedies.  In the event of any default, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Investor’s election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount.  The Mandatory Default Amount means the greater of (i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon, divided by the Conversion Price on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a lower Conversion Price, multiplied by the VWAP on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a higher VWAP, or (ii) 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus 100% of accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon.  Commencing five (5) days after the occurrence of any event of default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.  In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Investor need not provide, and the Issuer hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Investor may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law.  Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by the Investor at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Investor shall have all rights as a holder of the note until such time, if any, as the Investor receives full payment pursuant to this Section 8.  No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent event of default or impair any right consequent thereon.  Nothing herein shall limit the Investor’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Issuer’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

9.      No Shorting.  The Investor agrees that so long as this Note from the Issuer to the Investor remains outstanding, the Investor will not enter into or effect “short sales” of the Common Stock or hedging transaction which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer.  The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that upon delivery of a conversion notice by the Investor, the Investor immediately owns the shares of Common Stock described in the conversion notice and any sale of those shares issuable under such conversion notice would not be considered short sales.

10.           Assignability.  The Issuer may not assign this Note.  This Note will be binding upon the Issuer and its successors and will inure to the benefit of the Investor and its successors and assigns and may be assigned by the Investor to anyone without the Issuer’s approval.

11.           Governing Law.  This Note will be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.  Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of Florida or in the federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, in the State of Florida.  Both parties and the individuals signing this Agreement agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts.

12.           Delivery of Process by the Investor to the Issuer.  In the event of any action or proceeding by the Investor against the Issuer, and only by the Investor against the Issuer, service of copies of summons and/or complaint and/or any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding may be made by the Investor via U.S. Mail, overnight delivery service such as FedEx or UPS, email, fax, or process server, or by mailing or otherwise delivering a copy of such process to the Issuer at its last known attorney as set forth in its most recent SEC filing.

13.           Attorney Fees. If any attorney is employed by either party with regard to any legal or equitable action, arbitration or other proceeding brought by such party for enforcement of this Note or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Note, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled.

14.           Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, the Investor has the right to have any such opinion provided by its counsel.  Investor also has the right to have any such opinion provided by Issuer’s counsel.

15.           Notices.  Any notice required or permitted hereunder (including Conversion Notices) must be in writing and either personally served, sent by facsimile or email transmission, or sent by overnight courier.  Notices will be deemed effectively delivered at the time of transmission if by facsimile or email, and if by overnight courier the business day after such notice is deposited with the courier service for delivery.

Marley Coffee Issues Shareholder Letter to Discuss Results of Operations for Its Second Fiscal Quarter

Revenues grew by 53% compared to last year’s second fiscal quarter, while operating expenses declined by 35% year over year

DENVER, Colorado, September 19, 2015 -- Jammin Java Corp. (d/b/a Marley Coffee) (OTCQB:JAMN) (www.marleycoffee.com), the sustainably grown, ethically farmed and artisan-roasted gourmet coffee company, issues a letter to its shareholders on its second quarter financial results for the three months ended July 31, 2015. The letter includes business highlights from the quarter, anticipated projects, and the company’s balance sheet and cash flow position.
 
The following is a letter from our Chief Executive Officer, Brent Toevs:
 
“Dear Stockholders:

We are extremely happy with the results of second quarter, and with what we’ve got in the pipeline both financially and from a business development side in the back half of the fiscal year. It couldn’t be a more interesting time for Marley Coffee. Revenues and gross profit came in as expected and we are still forecasting double-digit growth in the upcoming quarters. We’ve continued to lean out operations while scaling on projects that maximize revenues and brand awareness. We've sold our local OCS/Food service division for a healthy profit without impacting revenue growth and added some exciting new business channels without having to scale operations.

Financial Highlights

When the quarter ended, we provided anticipated preliminary results of our second quarter and the final published numbers in the quarterly report aligned with our expectations. What I want to highlight is that we have become more efficient as each quarter moves on. Revenue is growing while our operating expenses decline. Revenues came in at $3,190,827 for the quarter ended July 31, 2015, which represents an increase of 53% year over year. Compensation and benefits decreased by 26% and general and administrative expenses decreased by 52% for the same period. Additionally, selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) were also down 32% for the current quarter compared to last year. We focused on our existing account base and growing organically by generating more revenues from existing accounts instead of paying slotting fees to get into new accounts. Net losses were down 68% for current quarter compared to the same period last year. Our primary objective as we’ve stated before is to get to cash flow positive by the fourth quarter of this fiscal year and then work to become a profitable company.
 
 
 

 
Business Development
 
EcoCup Recyclable Capsules Launch

Around July 31st, the company started shipping its recyclable RealCup®, or EcoCup, a sustainable and easy-to-recycle single-serve capsule that’s compatible with most Keurig® K-Cup® machines. As with most new launches, the rollout is being undertaken in a phased approach and can be slow as retailers have to move through their existing inventory of non-EcoCup capsules. We expect the vast majority of accounts to have fully transitioned into EcoCup capsules by the end of quarter 3. The initial feedback nonetheless, has been very encouraging. Buyers and shoppers are extremely excited about the product. Tastemakers, industry experts and media outlets have written extensive stories on the launch. For more links to blogs and news stories on EcoCup, see http://marleycoffee.com/blog/the-buzz-on-ecocup-recyclable-capsules/.

Marley Coffee, alongside Mother Parkers and their family of brands, have put a substantial amount of resources towards marketing EcoCup in North America. We’ve focused primarily in activations both in stores and at key events, as well as seeding our product with tastemakers, bloggers and the media. We just finished our six week west coast #RoarTour focused around our retailers, where we handed out over 70,000 targeted samples, attended over 90 large events and estimate that we received millions more in impressions. The objective is to move the tour east in the upcoming months and to repeat what we did in other key markets.

Overall, we are exceptionally bullish on the category. Despite a deceleration in the single serve category, sales for the overall category are still growing at double digits, as are our sales for Marley Coffee based on recent syndicated data. Remember, the largest player in the category wants to have a recyclable solution with a stated goal of 2020, thus giving us a 5-year head start to capture a pivotal market. When EcoCup hits full distribution within our network, and if we are able to turn an additional unit per store per week, per SKU, we estimate that it would generate an incremental value of almost $7 million annually. 

Other Business Development

 
·
Sale of Black Rock Beverages division – We sold our Black Rock Beverages division to experienced OCS operators for $300,000 (including $100,000 payable, subject to certain terms and conditions, over the next 24 months). This allowed the company to cut out a significant portion of its operating budget and focus on its core businesses domestically, which is grocery retail. Even though we unloaded the division, we expect to generate the same revenues and gross profits in the coming year, as we believe the new organization can better scale the business.

 
·
Café Valet – We recently signed a deal with Courtesy Products to launch Marley Coffee through their Café Valet system. Café Valet is the largest in-room coffee hotel operator in the country, operating in over a million hotel rooms and exclusively carried in hotels like Marriott, Hyatt Place and Hampton Inn.
 
 
 
 
 

 

 
 
·
Denver Broncos Football Club Partnership - In the following week we will be launching a Mile High Blend, a limited edition bagged coffee featuring the Denver Broncos logo that will be exclusively sold at all Colorado King Soopers and City Market locations, a supermarket division of The Kroger Co. family of stores. 

 
·
New Accounts - The Company continues to add new accounts and to make headway with getting SKU proliferation into existing ones. Within the second quarter and our current third quarter we’ve expanded or gained distribution at Krogers, H-E-B, Randalls (a division of Safeway), Schnucks, Dierbergs, ACME, Meijer, Wegmans, Big Y, Price Chopper, and Rouses to name a few. 

 
·
Recently, we added Simmer Down, the company’s signature decaf blend into an EcoCup form to help compliment our portfolio. 
 
International

Our international growth continues to be one of the fastest growing parts of our business. In Canada, we’ve got a greater than 50% ACV (all-commodity volume) for our EcoCup in grocery retail. We’ve also secured some tremendous food service accounts such as Coast to Coast in Canada, and recently secured primary coffee locations at McMasters University. Our partners in Chile continue to build strong momentum as they expand their business at Walmart and hopefully into other regions of South America in the upcoming quarters. We recently attended Expo Cafe with our new distributor in Mexico City to launch our brand in Mexico. Our partners in the United Kingdom are building a strong base of business especially in Ireland and the Scandinavian countries. Our partners in South Korea recently signed a distribution agreement with the company to continue building out distribution in the region. Through their distribution network as well as the seven Marley Coffee branded stores they've opened (which we supply with product), the company expects to generate over 1 million in gross revenues in that country alone for the full fiscal year. 

Financing

We have been talking to a variety of different types of investors as well as traditional banks to raise varying types of capital for growth, general operating expenses and to pay down some accounts payable. Recently, the company closed a handful of short-term convertible debt notes. The company’s goal is to pay these notes back in full before they convert. We believe these transactions were necessary as short-term bridges to help continue feeding and accelerating our current growth projects. We are hopeful, though we can't guarantee any assurances, that we will be able to secure a bank backed line of credit within the quarter. 

 
 

 
We believe the coffee investment sector is heating up again. We’ve seen several transactions from brick and mortar, to the cold brew space, to traditional roasters, either receiving growth capital or being rolled up, which makes growth and innovation for the category very exciting. Our objective is to continue building on projects both domestically and abroad that we believe can really move the needle in terms of building revenues and the brand. We are partnering with some amazing brands and companies that we are so proud to associate with. We are getting closer to being cash flow positive which puts the company in a much stronger position to receive traditional bank financing. We also are preparing the company to uplist to an exchange, subject to us meeting the required listing criteria. We believe that if we are successful in uplisting, it  will help ensure that we have a valuation that's more in line with other burgeoning consumer packaged goods companies like ours. We believe the company is about to finally turn the corner that our investors are all waiting for. We thank you all for your patience and support.
