Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.


Convertible Promissory Note and Warrant


On July 19, 2018 IronClad entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (SPA) to issue a 9% convertible note payable for an aggregate principal amount of $315,000 comprised of the first note (“First Note”) being in the amount of $157,500.00, and the remaining note in the amount of $157,500.00, (a “Back End Note”). The Company received cash proceeds of $142,500 from the First Note net of transaction costs of $15,000 that included $7,500 for attorneys’ fees.


The First Note matures on July 19, 2019 and interest costs accrue on the unpaid principal balance at 9% annually until July 19, 2019, and after that if not paid at maturity interest accrues annually at up to 24% until the principal amount and all interest accrued and unpaid are paid.


The Back End Note carries the same terms as the First Note, except it may not be repaid in cash, but only converted. The Company is under no obligation to accept the Back End Note, but may do so at its sole discretion following 180 days from the date of the note (dated July 19, 2018). As part of the SPA, the Holder issued the Company a collateralized secured promissory note in the amount of $150,000 that may be exchanged for cash against the Back End Note.


The holder of the note, at its sole election, may convert the note into shares of common stock of the Company at any time during the period beginning on the date which is 180 days following the date of the note (dated July 19, 2018) and ending on the later of i) the maturity date, or ii) the date of payment of a default amount, if any.


The shares to be issued are a function of a fixed conversion price of $1.00 per share for six months, and thereafter until maturity at a variable conversion price which is 65% of a market price defined to be the lowest trading price for the Company’s common stock during the fifteen-day trading period ending on the last trading day prior to exercising the conversion right.


Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.


The information contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The issuance and sale of the securities by the Company to the Holder was made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based on the offering of such securities to one investor, the lack of any general solicitation or advertising in connection with such issuance, the representation of such investor to the Company that it was an accredited investor (as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D), and the representation of such investor that it was purchasing the shares for its own account and without a view to distribute them.
