Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 27, 2017, Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with GS Capital Partners, LLC (“GS Capital) whereby the Company issued to GS Capital a 5% Convertible Redeemable Note in the amount of $80,000 (the “GS Note”). The GS Note is due June 27, 2018. The Company received net proceeds of $76,000 from the GS Note.

GS Capital is entitled, at its option, at any time after the issuance of the GS Note, to convert any amount of the principal face amount of the GS Note then outstanding into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to $0.00125 per share. Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the GS Note), interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24% per annum. If the GS Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%.

All the terms of the GS Note, including but not limited to interest rate, prepayment terms, conversion discount or lookback period will be adjusted downward (i.e. for the benefit of GS Capital) if the Company offers a more favorable conversion discount (whether via interest, rate OID or otherwise) or lookback period to another party or otherwise grants any more favorable terms to any third party than those contained herein while the GS Note is in effect. This provision shall not apply to other agreements and/or debt to which the Company is currently a party.

During the first six months GS Note is in effect, the Company may redeem the GS Note by paying to GS Capital an amount as follows: (i) if the redemption is within the first 90 days the GS Note is in effect, then for an amount equal to 120% of the unpaid principal amount of the GS Note along with any interest that has accrued during that period, (ii) if the redemption is after the 91st day the GS Note is in effect, but less than the 180th day, then for an amount equal to 133% of the unpaid principal amount of the GS Note along with any accrued interest. The GS Note may not be redeemed after 180 days.

Additionally, and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall issue to GS Capital the following: (i) 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Commitment Shares”) and (ii) a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.0035 per share (the “GS Warrant”). The GS Warrant has a five-year term and allows for cashless exercise by GS Capital.

The foregoing descriptions of the GS Note, GS Warrant and the Purchase Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the GS Note, GS Warrant and the Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.
