Senior Secured Convertible Notes:

The Company received $6.0 million in gross proceeds from the sale of the Notes. The offering of the Notes closed January 12, 2022. The Notes bear interest of 6.0% per annum, have an original issue discount of 5.0%, mature 12 months from the closing date, and have an initial conversion price of $3.00. In connection with the Notes, the Company and the Note holders also entered into a security agreement, dated January 12, 2022, pursuant to which the Company granted a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including promotion, marketing and expansion of the Company’s MARKET platform.

Common Stock Equity Line Purchase Agreement:

Under the common stock purchase agreement with Tumim, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Tumim, and Tumim is obligated to purchase, up to $50,000,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain conditions and limitations. VERB may issue to Tumim purchase notices over a 36-month period from the date of this agreement.

In the event the Company determines to sell any shares of its common stock under the common stock purchase agreement, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from any such sales for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including promotion, marketing and expansion of the Company’s MARKET platform. The option to raise capital over a longer period of time provides the Company flexibility to develop and grow its new MARKET and verbTV Platforms.
