Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 6, 2018, Foothills Exploration, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a convertible loan transaction with an unaffiliated investor (“Holder”) in the principal amount of $136,500 (the “Note”). The Note is divided into three tranches, the first tranche of which, in the face amount of $45,500, funded and closed on December 7, 2018, before giving effect to certain transactional costs including legal fees yielding a net of $41,500. The Note carries an original issue discount of $12,000.00 (the “OID”) prorated to each tranche, to cover the Holder’s accounting fees, due diligence fees, monitoring, and/or other transactional costs incurred in connection with the negotiation, purchase and sale of the Note, which is included in the principal balance of this Note.

For each tranche funded under the Note, the Company agreed to issue warrants having a 5-year term to purchase up to 227,500 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share with a cashless exercise option. The warrants are subject to adjustment in certain events such as forward or reverse stock splits or if subsequent financings are at terms that are more favorable to persons in subsequent issuances of securities.

The Note agreements give the Holder, after the 180^th calendar day after the issue date, the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of this Note due into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” shall be the Variable Conversion Price (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Company relating to the Company’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Company, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The “Variable Conversion Price” shall mean 50% multiplied by the Market Price. “Market Price” means the lowest one (1) Trading Price (as defined below) for the Common Stock during the twenty (20) Trading Day period ending on the last complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, the lesser of the (i) lowest traded price and (ii) lowest closing bid price on the OTCQB, or applicable trading market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTCQB is not the principal trading market for such security, on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if the lowest intraday trading price of such security is not available in any of the foregoing manners, the lowest intraday price of any market makers for such security that are quoted on the OTC Markets. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.

Each tranche of the Note funded accrues interest at 12% per year. The maturity date for each tranche funded shall be twelve (12) months from the effective date of each payment (each a “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the principal sum of each respective tranche, as well as any accrued and unpaid interest and other fees relating to that respective tranche, shall be due and payable. This Company may prepay any amount outstanding under each tranche of this Note, during the initial 60 calendar day period after the issuance of the respective tranche of this Note, by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to 125% multiplied the amount that the Company is prepaying Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Company may prepay any amount outstanding under each tranche of this Note, during the 61^st through 120 calendar day period after the issuance of the respective tranche of this Note, by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to 135% multiplied the amount that the Company is prepaying. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Company may prepay any amount outstanding under each tranche of this Note, during the 121^st through 180 calendar day period after the issuance of the respective tranche of this Note, by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to 145% multiplied the amount that the Company is prepaying.

The Company may not prepay any amount outstanding under each tranche of this Note after the 180^th calendar day after the issuance of the respective tranche of this Note. Any amount of principal or interest due pursuant to this Note, which is not paid by the Maturity Date, shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). Interest shall commence accruing on the date that each tranche of the Note is fully paid and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Net proceeds obtained in this transaction will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes. No assurance can be given that any other tranche of the Note will be funded or that any amount due there under will be prepaid. No broker-dealer or placement agent was retained or involved in this transaction.

The transaction documents contain additional terms and provisions, representations and warranties, including further provisions covering conversions of debt, remedies on default, venue, and governing law. The summary of the transactions described in this Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Convertible Promissory Note and Form of Warrant, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 respectively, to this report.

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 8-K that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions we made based on management’s experience, perception of historical trends and technical analyses, current conditions, capital plans, drilling plans, production expectations, our ability to raise adequate additional capital, or enter into other financing arrangements to support our acquisition, development and drilling activities, anticipated future developments, and other factors believed to be appropriate and reasonable by management. When used in this Form 8-K, words such as “will,” “possible,” “potential,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “expect,” “may,” “should,” “anticipate,” “could,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “profile,” “model,” “strategy,” “future” or their negatives or the statements that include these words or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. In particular, statements, express or implied, concerning our future operating results and returns or our ability to acquire or develop proven or probable reserves, our ability to replace or increase reserves, increase production, obtain adequate capital to fund acquisitions or other operations, or generate income or cash flows are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depend on a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from our expectations. As a result, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. We have had sporadic and limited revenue and our securities are subject to considerable risk. Investors are cautioned to review FTXP’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of risk and other factors that affect our business. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Form 8-K speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future development or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

The offering and sale were not conducted in connection with a public offering, and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the Holder in connection with the offering. This current report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall such securities be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.
