Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 18, 2022, mPhase Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with GS Capital Partners, LLC (“GS Capital”), pursuant to which a Promissory Note (the “Note”) was made to GS Capital in the aggregate principal amount of $280,000, convertible into shares of common stock of the Company. The Note was purchased for $250,000, reflecting an original issuance discount of $30,000. The Company further issued GS Capital a total of 325,000 commitment shares as additional consideration for the purchase of the Note. Principal and Interest payments shall be made in seven installments of $44,000 each beginning on the five-month anniversary following the issue date and continuing thereafter each thirty (30) days for seven months. GS Capital shall have the right at any time following an Event of Default which has not been cured within 30 calendar days of the occurrence of such default, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, penalties, and all other amounts under this Note at a conversion price shall be equal to 70% of the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the delivery of a notice of conversion resulting from such default.

 

Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K contains only a brief description of the material terms of the Agreement and Note, and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and such descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of the Agreement and Note, which is attached as Exhibits 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

 

The securities to be issued pursuant to the Note were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and will receive, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
