7. Convertible Bridge Loan

 

On December 28, 2017, the Company entered into a Secured Promissory Note and Security Agreement for a convertible loan with Emerald. The bridge loan provides for aggregate gross proceeds to Nemus of up to $900,000 and is secured by all of Nemus’ assets. Nemus received proceeds of $500,000 on December 28, 2017 and on January 19, 2018, the Company received the remaining $400,000 in funding as it had satisfied the conditions of the funding. These conditions required receipt of conversion notices from all the existing Series B shareholders to convert their preferred shares to common stock. Such conversions occurred in January and February of 2018. Also, on January 19, 2018, in conjunction with the Emerald Securities Purchase Agreement, the bridge loan was converted at $0.10 per share to common stock resulting in the issuance of 9,000,000 additional shares.

 

In connection with the convertible bridge loan financing, the Company recorded a liability related to the conversion option of the bridge loan into the Company’s common stock due to a down-round protection feature present in the loan agreement. The Company valued the conversion liability pursuant to the accounting guidance of ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements, as of the closing date of the financing utilizing the Black Scholes valuation methodology and the assumptions discussed in Note 6 above. This resulted in a conversion liability value of $265,000 as of the financing close date which was one trading day prior to December 31, 2017. The second funding in January 2018 resulted in an additional conversion liability which was $360,000. The Company recorded amortization of this debt discount of $34,608 to non-operating expense prior to the conversion of the debt. In addition, the Company then marked to market the conversion liabilities to $810,000 utilizing the assumptions discussed above and recorded a change in fair value on conversion right of $185,000 as a non-operating expense. At the time of the conversion, the Company extinguished the debt and the associated conversion liability and issued the common stock at fair market value resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $590,392 which was recorded as a non-operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
