Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Effective February 2, 2023, The Crypto Company (the “Company”) borrowed funds pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) entered into with Fast Capital, LLC (“Fast Capital”), and Fast Capital purchased a 10% convertible promissory note (the “Note”) from the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $115,000. The Note has an original issue discount of $10,000, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $105,000. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company agreed to reimburse Fast Capital for certain fees in connection with entry into the SPA and the issuance of the Note. The SPA contains certain covenants and customary representations and warranties by the Company and Fast Capital typically contained in such documents.

 

The maturity date of the Note is January 30, 2024. The Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, and a default interest of 24% per annum. Interest is payable in shares of Company common stock.

 

For the first six months, the Company has the right to prepay principal and accrued interest due under the Note at a premium of between 15% and 40% depending on when it is repaid. The Note may not be prepaid after the 180^th day of its issuance.

 

Fast Capital has the right at any time after the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Note into Company common stock, subject to a beneficial ownership limitation. The conversion price of the Note equals 60% of the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 20 prior trading days, including the day upon which a notice of conversion is delivered.

 

The Note contains various covenants standard and customary events of default such as failing to timely make payments under the Note when due, the failure to maintain a listing on the OTC Markets or the Company defaulting on any other note or similar debt obligation into which the Company has entered and failed to cure within the applicable grace period. The occurrence of any of the events of default, entitle First Capital, among other things, to accelerate the due date of the unpaid principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Note. Upon an “Event of Default”, interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24%, and certain defined events of default may give rise to other remedies (such as, if the Company is delinquent in its periodic report filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission then the conversion price of the Note may be decreased).

 

The foregoing descriptions of SPA and Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the forms of the of SPA and Note which will be filed as exhibits to a subsequent current, quarterly, or annual report to be filed by the Company.

 

The offer and sale of the Note to Fast Capital was made in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in reliance on exemptions afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
