The information disclosed in Item 7.01 of this current report on Form 8-K are incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02.

In addition, on July 10, 2020, the Company’s chief executive officer purchased 700,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $35,000, at $0.05 per share. All such shares shall be “restricted securities” as such term is defined by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The proceeds of this private placement were used to pay for additional inventory of the Company’s Pear Bellini flavor Tauri-Gum™. This acquisition of shares was also reported on Form 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2020.

On June 4, 2020, the Company entered into a one year 8% $33,000 convertible Note with GS Capital Partners, LLC (the “GS Note”) to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”). The GS Note has a maturity date of June 4, 2021 and carried a $3,000 original issue discount (such that $30,000 was funded to the Company on or about June 4, 2020). The holder is entitled, at its option, at any time after cash payment, to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of the GS Note then outstanding into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price for each share of common stock equal to 65% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the common stock as reported on the National Quotations Bureau OTC Markets exchange, which the Company’s shares are traded or any exchange upon which the common stock may be traded in the future, for the twenty (20) prior trading days including the day upon which a notice of conversion is received by the Company or its transfer agent. Such conversion shall be effectuated by the Company delivering the shares of common stock to the holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the notice of conversion. Accrued but unpaid interest shall be subject to conversion. To the extent the conversion price of the Company’s common stock closes below the par value per share, the Company will take all steps necessary to solicit the consent of the stockholders to reduce the par value to the lowest value possible under law. The Company agrees to honor all conversions submitted pending this increase. In the event the Company experiences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to 55% instead of 65% while that “Chill” is in effect. In no event shall the holder be allowed to affect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of the Company common stock beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates would exceed 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company.

During the first six months that the GS Capital Note is in effect, the Company may redeem the GS Note by paying to the holder an amount as follows: (i) if the redemption is within the first 90 days of the issuance date, then for an amount equal to 120% of the unpaid principal amount of this Note along with any interest that has accrued during that period, (ii) if the redemption is after the 91st day, but less than the 180th day of the issuance date, then for an amount equal to 133% of the unpaid principal amount of this Note along with any accrued interest. The GS Note may not be redeemed after 180 days. The Company may not redeem the GS Capital Note after the 180th day from entering into it. Upon an event of default, among other default provisions set forth in the GS Capital Note, (i) interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24% per annum or, if such rate is usurious or not permitted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law. (ii) if the Company shall fail to deliver to the holder the shares of common stock without restrictive legend (when permissible in accordance with applicable law) within three (3) business days of its receipt of a notice of conversion, then the Company shall pay a penalty of $250 per day the shares are not issued beginning on the 4th day after the conversion notice was delivered to the Company (which shall be increased to $500 per day beginning on the 10th day); (iii) if the Company loses its bid price for its stock in a market (including the OTC marketplace or other exchange), the principal amount due under the GS note shall increase by 20%; (iv) if the Company’s stock ceases to be listed on an exchange, its stock is suspended from trading for more than 10 consecutive trading days or the Company ceases to file its reports with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, then the outstanding principal due under the GS Capital Note shall increase by 50%; or (v) if the GS Capital Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%.

In connection with the GS Capital Note, the Company issued irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving 3,678,000 shares of its common Stock for conversions under this Note (the “Share Reserve”) and shall maintain a 2.5 times reserve for the amount then outstanding. Upon full conversion or repayment of this Note, any shares remaining in the Share Reserve shall be cancelled and placed back into the treasury of the company and available for issuance at a future date.

The Company issued to the noteholder 90,000 shares of its restricted common stock as debt commitment shares valued at $3,105 ($0.0345 per share).

The foregoing description of the SPA and GS Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the respective agreements, which are filed as exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated herein by reference.
