Item 1.01          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On January 31, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), Medizone International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), entered into identical securities purchase agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”) with specialized investment firms L2 Capital, LLC, a Kansas limited liability company (“L2”) and SBI Investments LLC, 2014-1, a statutory series of Delaware limited liability company which is managed by New York-based Sea Otter Global Ventures, LLC (“SBI” and together with L2, collectively, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors identical unsecured convertible promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $285,000. The Notes accrue interest (payable at maturity of the Notes) at a rate of 8% per annum and mature six months from the issue date. The Notes were issued with original issue discount of $17,500 and $10,000 was subtracted from the proceeds paid to Medizone to reimburse the Investors for their legal fees in connection with the preparation of the Notes and the related investment agreements. Accordingly, the net proceeds received by Medizone for each Note was $125,000. The Notes are convertible at any time at the option of the Investors into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a conversion price of $0.05 per share, which conversion price is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events of default with respect to the Notes. The Company may prepay the amount outstanding under either Note at any time by making a payment to the holder of an amount in cash equal to 130% multiplied by the total outstanding amount owed under the Note at such time of repayment. The Investor may convert the Note in whole or in part at any time after it has been called for redemption.
In connection with the issuance of the Notes, each Investor also received a warrant (collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase 2,833,168 shares of Common Stock. The Warrants are immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the date that is the five-year anniversary of their issuance. The exercise price per share of the Warrants is equal to 110% multiplied by the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the issuance date, which was $0.0379 per share. The Warrants include a cashless net exercise provision whereby the holder can elect to receive shares equal to the value of the Warrants minus the fair market value of shares being surrendered to pay for the exercise. The Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions.
Also on the Closing Date, the Company entered into that certain Equity Purchase Agreement with the Investors (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Investors committed to purchase (the “Financing”) in the aggregate, up to $10,000,000 of value of the Company’s Common Stock. On the Closing Date, the Company issued 4,087,193 shares of Common Stock (the “Commitment Shares”) to each Investor as a commitment fee with respect to the Financing. The Commitment Shares were earned in full upon the execution of the Purchase Agreement, and the ownership of the Commitment Shares by the Investors is not contingent upon any other event or condition, including but not limited to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined below) or the Company’s sale of any shares of Common Stock to the Investors pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Financing, the Company and the Investors also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement.
Pursuant to the Financing, upon filing and effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) and provided other closing conditions are met, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Investors to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Put Shares”) (i) in a minimum amount of not less than $20,000 and (ii) in a maximum amount of $1,000,000, provided that the number of Put Shares shall not exceed 300% of the average daily trading volume in the 10 trading days immediately preceding a Put Notice (as defined below). At any time, and from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Period”), the Company may deliver a notice to the Investors (the “Put Notice”) and shall deliver the Put Shares to Investors via DWAC within one trading day. The Purchase Price for the Put Shares is 85% of the lowest traded price (as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.) during the five trading days immediately following the date the Investors receive the Put Shares via DWAC associated with the applicable Put Notice (the “Valuation Period”). The closing of a Put Notice shall occur within one trading day following the end of the respective Valuation Period, whereby (i) the Investors shall deliver the investment amount to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds and (ii) the Investors shall return surplus Put Shares if the value of the Put Shares delivered to the Investors causes the Company to exceed the maximum commitment amount. The Company shall not deliver another Put Notice to the Investors within seven trading days of a prior Put Notice.

The obligation of the Investors to purchase Common Stock from the Company will expire (the “Commitment Period”) on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investors shall have purchased $10,000,000 value of shares of Common Stock from the Company pursuant to the Financing, (ii) January 31, 2021, or (iii) upon the Company’s provision of written notice to the Investors that it elects to terminate the Financing.
