SECTION 8 – OTHER EVENTS

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On November 28, 2019, AmericaTowne Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, received a Progress Payment Certificate (“Certificate”) from the Central Bank of Kenya (“Central Bank”). The Company’s employees, both in the United States and Kenya, have performed due diligence regarding the Certificate and have determined that the Certificate is authentic, properly executed, and approved by the Central Bank.

 

The Certificate represents imminent payment of $426,000,000 to the Company pursuant to the terms of several tenders issued by the Central Bank and related governmental entities in Kenya. The tenders were previously disclosed in the Company’s Amended Current Report filed May 7, 2019, Amended Quarterly Report filed on May 20, 2019, and discussed further in the Company’s Quarterly Report filed on November 4, 2019.

 

The Company remains in close contact with Kenyan officials. It is unknown when the $426,000,000 will be received by the Company, though the Company believes payment is imminent based on representations made by Kenyan officials. The Certificate represents the beginning of the partnership between the Company and the Central Bank and other Kenyan governmental entities and will trigger the Company’s performance obligations under the previously disclosed tenders. The Company cannot guarantee its performance, nor the Central Bank’s performance, however, completion of the terms of the tenders could result in approximately $1,250,000,000 in revenue for the Company over the next four years.

 

On December 9, 2019, the Company issued the attached press release titled “AmericaTowne Announces Start of Partnership,” which further outlines the terms of the tenders and information regarding the Certificate.
