Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
February 20, 2017, Tropic International Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a radio frequency treatment system (“RFTS”)
proposal (the “Proposal”) with RBC Medical Innovations of Lenexa, Kansas (“RBC”) to develop the technology
licensed by Notox Bioscience Inc., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (“Notox”). Under the Proposal, RBC
will be responsible for completing the design and production of the two main RTFS components, a generator console and a disposable
treatment probe. The rights to the technology are owned by the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (the “Clinic”) and were
acquired by Notox on June 13, 2016 pursuant to an assignment agreement with Zoran Holding Corporation, a private Ontario corporation
controlled by Zoran Konevic, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and director.
The
material terms of the Proposal call for RBC to produce commercial-equivalent consoles and probes for use by Notox in human trials
during the fourth quarter of 2017; test the consoles and probes for the purpose of providing technical data for FDA Section 510(k)
and CE marking submissions; and perform volume production of the components. In exchange for these services, Notox has agreed
to pay RBC according to a staged, fixed-fee approach that includes a $56,000 initial payment, to be followed by two similarly-sized
payments prior to the completion of the planning stage. The cost to complete the second (design and testing) and third (manufacturing
transfer) stages will be considerably more expensive, with exact numbers to be confirmed only upon the conclusion of the previous
stage. In general, however, the Company plans to budget $1,750,000 to bring the console to market, plus up to $800,000 in order
to develop the probe in a process to be led by RBC.
In
partial satisfaction of Notox’s payment obligations under the Proposal, RBC has agreed to convert $50,000 of the amount
owing in the planning stage into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price to be negotiated between the parties sometime
in the next 60 days.
Item
8.01 Other Events
On
February 22, 2017, the holders of 69.53% of the issued and outstanding exchangeable preferred shares of 1894632 Ontario Inc.,
the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (“Subco”), approved a change to the rights, privileges, restrictions and
conditions attached to such shares by consent in writing in order to delete the “June 30, 2017” date in section 5(b)
and replace it with “December 31, 2018”. This date represents the date on which all restrictions attached to the preferred
shares will automatically expire unless extended by the approval of the holders thereof, and effectively means that those shares
cannot be exchanged into shares of the Company’s common stock for an additional 18 months, subject to certain limited exceptions.
