On April 5, 2024, Avant Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “AVAI”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) with Wired4Health, Inc. (“Seller” or “W4H”), pertaining to certain technology assets, providing full-stack software development, database management, data integration, project management and cloud services resources. The assets being acquired include an agreement and amendments between W4H and Sentry Data Systems/Craneware, an agreement between W4H and Respec, Inc., agreements between W4H and all of its employees and contractors assigned to Sentry Data Systems/Craneware and Respec, Inc. customer accounts, Website and Internet Domain Name, Wired4Health.com and all of its content (the “Website“), and any other rights associated with the Website, including, without limitation, any intellectual property rights, all related domains, logos, customer lists and agreements, email lists, passwords, usernames and trade names, and all of the related social media accounts, if any, and any other associated rights, etc. (the “Assets”).

 

At closing, in consideration of acquiring the Assets, the Company paid Seller $2,200,000 through a combination of an amortizing secured promissory note in the principal amount of $1,200,000 (“Secured Note”) of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”)

 

The Secured Note is payable by the Company to the Seller in 24 equal monthly installments of principal and interest in the amount of $52,427.22 on the first day of each month, beginning on the first day of the month following the closing of the transaction and continuing on the first day of each consecutive month thereafter until the note is fully paid, but in no case less than two billing cycles of W4H activity. The Secured Note bears interest of five percent (5%) per annum accrued monthly (0.42% per month on the outstanding principal balance).

 

The Preferred Stock Series B has an aggregate stated value of $1,000,000, where the conversion price is equal to the lesser of $1.00 per share each, on a fully diluted basis, or the volume-weighted average market price (VWAP) of the Company’s common stock as traded on the OTC Markets for the most recent 30 days prior to deal closure (the “Conversion Price”). Conversion will include a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a leak out agreement allowing daily sales to not exceed 25% of the total daily volume.

 

The Secured Note is secured by the Assets pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement which, among other things, will authorize the Seller to file a UCC1 Financing Statement in the State of Nevada. As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated on approximately $1,200,000 face amount of Secured Notes issued to the Seller. The Secured Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business which constitute a direct financial obligation of the Company.

 

The offer, sale and issuance of the above securities was made to Seller as an accredited investor and the Company relied upon the exemptions contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated there under with regard to the sale. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The offer and sales were made to an accredited investor and transfer of the common stock will be restricted by the Company in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing description of the terms of the above transactions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of such agreements, the forms of which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

2.The purchase price for the Assets is $2,200,000 (Two Million, Two-Hundred Thousand US dollars) (“Purchase Price”). Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price to Seller through a combination of an amortizing secured promissory note and shares of AVAI preferred stock as follows:

 

a.Secured Promissory Note: $1,200,000 in the form of a secured promissory note payable by AVAI to Seller bearing interest of five percent (5%) per annum accrued monthly (0.42% per month on the outstanding principal balance) and payable in 24 equal monthly installments of principal and interest in the amount of $52,427.22 on the first day of each month, beginning on the first day of the month following the closing of the transaction and continuing on the first day of each consecutive month thereafter until the note is fully paid, but in no case less than two billing cycles of W4H activity (“Promissory Note”). No interest will accrue on the loan during the period between closing date and the first scheduled payment date. AVAI may prepay the Promissory Note, including accrued interest, at any time during 24- month payment period without penalty. The parties agree that the Promissory Note will be secured by a first priority lien in the Assets and the cash and non-cash proceeds therefrom. The following conditions shall apply to the Promissory Note: Payments late in excess of five calendar days shall accrue a late payment fee equal to 5% of past due payment amount. All past due amounts plus late fees may be cured within ten (10) days after delivery to Purchaser of notice of default.

i.AVAI agrees to prioritize the monthly payment due Seller when utilizing any cash proceeds derived from W4H activity.

 

ii.At least quarterly, AVAI agrees to provide Seller with financial information, including cash flow projections, relating to AVAI’s ability to service the Promissory Note.

iv.Upon default, Seller, in its sole and unilateral discretion, may require Purchaser to direct all contribution margin derived from the Assets be paid directly to a bank account designated by the Seller until such time that all
 
 

current and past due amounts have been paid. Contribution Margin from the assets is defined as gross cash receipts less direct variable costs.

In no case, however, shall Purchaser pay more than $60,000 or less than $52,427.22 in any given month for the term of the Promissory Note, except in the event that the remaining principal balance on the note is less than $52,427.22 due to accelerated repayment during the term.

On May 1, 2026, all amounts then outstanding under this Note, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and any unpaid fees, shall be due and payable.

(b)              Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay the Loan in whole or in part at any time or from time to time without penalty or premium by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of the prepayment.

 

(c)              No Reborrowing. Principal amounts repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

 

2.Interest.

 

(a)              Interest Rate. Except as provided in Section 2(b), the principal amount outstanding under this Note from time to time shall bear interest at a rate per annum (the "Interest Rate") equal to five percent (5%).

 

(b)              Interest Payment Dates. Interest shall start to accrue on May 1st, 2024, and shall be payable monthly in arrears on each Payment Date thereafter.

 

(c)              Default Interest. If any amount payable hereunder is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace period), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, such overdue amount shall continue to bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum, accrued daily. In addition, payments late in excess of five calendar days shall accrue a late payment fee equal to 5% of past due payment amount.

(d)              Computation of Interest. All computations of interest hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of

(b)              Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty made by the Borrower to the Noteholder herein contains an untrue or misleading statement of a material fact as of the date made; provided, however, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred pursuant to this Section 5(b) if, within thirty (30) days of the date on which the Borrower receives notice (from any source) of such untrue or misleading statement, Borrower shall have addressed the adverse effects of such untrue or misleading statement to the reasonable satisfaction of the Noteholder.
