SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Item 6
of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as
follows:
On January 8, 2019 the Issuer and C2M entered into a Master Product
Development and Supply Agreement (the “Development
Agreement”). Under the
Development Agreement, among other things, the Issuer was allotted
by C2M a minimum of 50 and up to 300 kilograms per month, and up to

Issuer’s common stock, or approximately fifty-one (51%)
percent of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a
fully-diluted basis, on January 8, 2019 upon effectiveness of the
Development Agreement. As a result, C2M is the Issuer’s
largest shareholder.
On July 31, 2019, the Issuer and C2M finalized and entered into a
Management and Services Agreement (the “MSA”) in order to provide the Issuer with
project management and various other benefits associated with the
farming rights, operations and opportunities with C2M, including
assignment by C2M of C2M’s agreements and rights to acquire
approximately 200 acres of hemp farming. Under the terms of the
MSA, C2M agreed to provide further access to the opportunities and
know-how of C2M, consented to the appointment of Emiliano Aloi, a
seasoned hemp veteran previously an advisor and currently the
Issuer’s President, and to provide the Issuer and Exactus One
World, LLC, a subsidiary of the Issuer, certain additional services
consisting of, among other things:
●
right
of
participation for further investment and business opportunities in
order to rapidly expand the Issuer’s business and operations
in hemp-derived CBD;
●
executive,
sourcing, vendor, product, production and other expertise and
resources;
●
drawings, designs
and specifications for extraction, production and manufacturing
facilities and resources;
●
brand
development and support services.
The MSA also served to finalize certain other compensation
arrangements with C2M and the Issuer. The parties agreed to payment
in a new class of preferred stock, the Series E Preferred
Stock.
On August 1, 2019 the Issuer issued 1,000 shares of Series E 0%
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the
“Series E Preferred”) to C2M pursuant to the MSA. Under
the terms of the Series E Preferred, C2M may only convert such
shares of Series E Preferred into shares of the Issuer’s
Common Stock, if the closing price of Common Stock on the principal
trading market, shall exceed $2.00 per share for 5 consecutive
trading days. Once vested, the shares of Series E Preferred held by
C2M are intended to either by converted at $1.60 per share of
Common Stock or optionally redeemed out of the proceeds of future
financings, at the option of C2M.
Each share of Series E Preferred is convertible into 625 shares of
Common Stock and have a stated value of $1,000 per share. The
conversion ratio is subject to adjustment in the event of stock
splits, stock dividends, combination of shares and similar
recapitalization transactions. We are prohibited from effecting
conversions of the Series E Preferred to the extent that, as a
result of such conversion, the holder beneficially owns more than
4.99% (which may be increased to 9.99% upon 61 days’ written
notice), in the aggregate, of the issued and outstanding shares of
our Common Stock calculated immediately after giving effect to the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of the
Series E Preferred. Holders of the Series E Preferred shall be
entitled to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders and shall
be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of
Common Stock into which the shares of Series E Preferred Stock are
convertible, subject to applicable beneficial ownership
limitations. The Series E Preferred Stock provides a liquidation
preference equal to par value.
On
October 23, 2019, the MSA was amended (the “MSA Amendment”), The MSA Amendment
extended the termination date of the MSA to December 31, 2024 and
expanded the scope of services to be provided by C2M to the
Issuer.
