Note 7 – Convertible notes receivable
On November 22, 2017, the Company invested $25,000 in NeuCourt, Inc. (“NeuCourt”) as a convertible note receivable. The note bore interest at 5% per annum, originally matured November 22, 2019, and was amended to extend the maturity date to November 22, 2021. No payments were required prior to maturity. However, at the time the November 22, 2017 note was extended, interest accrued through November 4, 2019, was remitted to Mentor. As consideration for the extension of the maturity date for the $25,000 note, a warrant to purchase up to 25,000 shares of NeuCourt common stock at $ per share was issued to Mentor.
On October 31, 2018, the Company invested an additional $50,000 as a convertible note receivable in NeuCourt, which bore interest at 5%, originally matured October 31, 2020 and was amended to extend the maturity date to October 31, 2022. As consideration for the extension of the maturity date for the $50,000 note plus accrued interest of $5,132, a warrant to purchase up to 52,500 shares of NeuCourt common stock at $ per share was issued to Mentor. On June 13, 2022, the Company sold $2,160.80 in note principal to a third party, thereby reducing the principal face value of the note to $47,839.
Principal and unpaid interest on the Notes could have been converted into a blend of shares of a to-be-created series of Preferred Stock and Common Stock of NeuCourt (i) on the closing of a future financing round of at least $750,000, (ii) on the election of NeuCourt on the maturity of the Note, or (iii) on the election of Mentor following NeuCourt’s election to prepay the Note.
On July 15, 2022, the November 22, 2017 and October 31, 2018 convertible notes were exchanged for a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”). Prior to the exchange, the Conversion Price for each Note was the lower of (i) 75% of the price paid in the Next Equity Financing, or the price obtained by dividing a $3,000,000 valuation cap by the fully diluted number of shares. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued on conversion was the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest on a Note to be converted on the date of conversion by the Conversion Price (the “Total Number of Shares”), The Total Number of Shares consisted of Preferred Stock and Common Stock as follows: (i) That number of shares of Preferred Stock obtained by dividing (a) the principal amount of each Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder by (b) the price per share paid by other purchasers of Preferred Stock in the Next Equity Financing (such number of shares, the “Number of Preferred Stock”) and (ii) that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Total Number of Shares minus the Number of Preferred Stock.
On July 15, 2022, the Company and NeuCourt, Inc. entered into an Exchange Agreement by which the $25,000 and $47,839 principal amounts of the NeuCourt November 22, 2017 and October 31, 2018 convertible notes and accrued unpaid interest in the amounts of $3,518 and $9,673, respectively, were exchanged for a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”), a security providing for conversion of the SAFE into shares of NeuCourt common or preferred stock (“Capital Stock”) at some future date. As of July 15, 2022, the Company received SAFEs in the aggregate face amount of $86,030 (the “Purchase Amount”).
The valuation cap of the SAFE is $3,000,000 (“Valuation Cap”), and the discount rate is 75% (“Discount Rate”).
If, prior to termination, conversion, or expiration of the SAFE, NeuCourt sells a series of preferred stock (“Equity Preferred Stock”) to investors in an equity financing raising not less than $500,000, Mentor’s SAFE shall be converted into shares equal to the Purchase Amount divided by the lessor of (x) the price per share of the Equity Preferred Stock multiplied by the Discount Rate and (y) the price per share equal to the Valuation Cap divided by the number of outstanding shares of NeuCourt on a fully diluted, as-converted basis (“Conversion Shares”). The Conversion Shares shall consist of (a) the number of shares of Equity Preferred Stock equal to the Purchase Amount divided by the price per share of the Equity Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) and (b) the number of shares of common stock equal to the Conversion Shares minus the Preferred Stock.
The SAFE will expire and terminate upon i) conversion or ii) repayment. The SAFE may be repaid by NeuCourt upon sixty (60) days prior notice (“Repayment Notice”) to the Company unless the Company elects during that period to convert the SAFE.
Note 7 – Convertible notes receivable (continued)
If NeuCourt does not close an equity financing round raising $500,000 or more prior to expiration or termination of the SAFE, the Company may elect to convert the SAFE into the number of shares of a to-be-created series of preferred stock equal to the (x) Purchase Amount divided by (y) the Valuation Cap divided by the number of outstanding shares of NeuCourt on a fully diluted, as-converted basis (“Default Conversion”). Additionally, if NeuCourt experiences a change of control, initial public offering, ceases operations, or enters into a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, prior to conversion, termination, or expiration of the SAFE, the Company will receive the greater of (a) a cash payment equal to the Purchase Amount and (b) the value of the shares issuable on Default Conversion.
On July 22, 2022, the Company sold $989 of the SAFE Purchase Amount to a third party. On August 1, 2022, the Company sold an additional $1,285 of the SAFE Purchase Amount to a third party, thereby reducing the aggregate outstanding SAFE Purchase Amount to $83,756.
On January 20, 2023, the Company and NeuCourt entered into a SAFE Purchase Agreement by which the Company invested an additional $10,000 in the form of a NeuCourt Simple Agreement for Future Equity under the same terms as the previous July 15, 2022 SAFE Purchase Agreement between NeuCourt and the Company, increasing the aggregate SAFE Purchase Amount to $93,756. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the SAFE Purchase Amount was $93,756 and $83,756, respectively.
