(“OP SUB” or “Subsidiary”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and TRUNITY, INC. (“PRIVCO”), a newly formed Florida “C” corporation which was formed for the purpose of holding all of the education software and services business activities and assets previously held by TRUNITY HOLDINGS, INC. and TRUNITY, INC., both Delaware corporations. Tax Treatment of the transaction should be evaluated separately by the shareholders and their tax advisors and no representation as to the tax impact is provided by any of the parties herein.

 

RECITALS

 

A. On December 31, 2015, the parties hereto entered into a Spin-Off Agreement, which memorializes and documents an agreement among the parties previously disclosed as a part of a restructuring plan for PUBCO, whose details with respect to the spin out of the educational business activities as set forth herein. This agreement and the underlying terms have been authorized by a vote of the majority of the PUBCO Board of Directors and a vote of 90% of the shares available to vote as represented by the holdings of the Series X Preferred stock.

 

B. In accordance with the terms hereof, PUBCO will make a pro rata distribution to PRIVCO, a private company, of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of OP SUB and, as well as any other assets relating to the educational software and services businesses of PUBCO, immediately thereafter, PRIVCO will make a pro rata distribution of 100% of its shares to the common shareholders of PUBCO as of the record date of December 18, 2015 effecting a Spin-Off of all of the educational software and services business assets and operations of PUBCO into PRIVCO. These assets are detailed on Exhibit A to this agreement. The holders of the Series X Preferred Stock shall have no interest in PRIVCO or OP SUB

 

C. As a consequence of the Spin-Off, neither OP SUB nor PRIVCO will be a Subsidiary (as defined herein) of PUBCO, and the companies will have no further relationship, except to cooperate on any litigation, financial reporting, tax related matters or other actions required for regulatory matters.

 

D. Parent and PRIVCO desire to allocate certain rights and responsibilities with respect to their debt obligations (as defined herein) and other responsibilities of Parent/PUBCO, Subsidiary/OP SUB and the PRIVCO (as defined herein) and successors for periods before and after the Spin-Off and to provide for certain other matters.

 

E. The Parties have specifically notified their shareholders, and interested parties, of the financial condition of the PUBCO, OP SUB, and PRIVCO, through disclosure in the PUBCO’s SEC Filings, including but not limited to Form 10Q for the Period ended 9/30/15, Form 8K filed on December 15, 2015, and Form 8K filed on December 21, 2015, as well as in press releases to the general public. Included in these disclosures was an offer to creditors to convert their debt obligations to common stock in the PUBCO, as well as an allocation of shares of PRIVCO based on the holdings as of December 18, 2015, the record date. That offer to convert debt was concluded on December 18, 2015. Copies of these documents are included in the Exhibits to this document.

 

 

 

 

F. The Parties agree that all obligations of the PUBCO will remain with the PUBCO, and that all obligations of the OP SUB will remain with the OP SUB, at the time of the Spin Out, or by the decision of the Board of Directors of the newly formed PRIVCO, those obligations shall become an obligation of PRIVCO. Any obligation of PUBCO that is to be transferred to OP SUB as a part of the Spin Out, or to PRIVCO, must be supported by a mutual consent agreement of all parties, including the creditor, demonstrating a desire by the creditor to be included in the obligations of the OP SUB or PRIVCO, at the time of the Spin Out.

 

G. The obligations as of this date for all parties are listed in this document, with those PUBCO obligations that shall remain with the PUBCO listed on Exhibit X, those that shall remain with the OP SUB at the time of the spin out into the PRIVCO listed on Exhibit Y, and those obligations of PUBCO that have agreed to be transferred into the OP SUB or PRIVCO listed on Exhibit Z of this agreement.

 

H. The parties shall have taken these steps to further enhance the support of the PRIVCO upon completion of the Spin out. First, under the same terms of the debt conversion agreement previously offered, and completed as of December 18, 2015, the Board of Directors of PRIVCO shall reserve 1,437,341 of its common stock shares for use in future debt conversions, or other corporate needs as determined by the Board of Directors of PRIVCO. Secondly, PUBCO shall issue to PRIVCO, 253,691 common stock shares, a number of shares equal to those otherwise used in the debt conversion as if all of the debts of OP SUB would have been converted. Those shares, along with the special reserve shares, shall be held for use in future debt conversions, or other corporate needs as determined by the Board of Directors of PRIVCO. These details are included in Exhibit H of this agreement.

 

I. The “Spin-out date” or “Spin-off date” shall be December 31, 2015. For other actions the effective date for the actions detailed in this agreement shall be the earlier of the announced or approved date as documented in the filings of the PUBCO with the SEC.

 

J. The parties agree that the business that is being spun out of the Company is essentially 100% of the business that has been the Company’s sole activity since the 2012 reverse merger that created the publicly held educational software and services business. Consequently, all shareholders have had full access to the financials of the business of the Spin out, including the most recent Form 10Q for the period ending September 30, 2015, and the further updates contained in its recent Form 8K filings, which note the financial condition of the Company in detail. While the conversion of debt during the effort that ended on December 18, 2015 was substantial, and the elimination of the overhead of a public company will reduce costs, the financial condition of PRIVCO is still weak, and its survival uncertain.

 

Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:

Each party entitled to indemnification hereunder will be entitled to indemnification for losses sustained in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI regardless of any Law or public policy that would limit or impair the right of the party to recover indemnification under the circumstances.

 

6.5 Indemnification Procedures. Any party seeking indemnification under this Article VI for a third party claim (the “Indemnified Party”) must notify the party from whom such indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim, demand, action or proceeding for which indemnification will be sought; provided, however, that the failure to so notify will not adversely impact the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that such failure to notify actually prejudices, or prevents the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such claim, demand, action or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party will have the right at its expense to assume the defense thereof using counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will have the right (i) to participate, at its own expense, with respect to any claim, demand, action or proceeding that is being diligently defended by the Indemnifying Party and (ii) to assume the defense of any claim, demand, action or proceeding at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnifying Party fails or ceases to defend the same. In connection with any such claim, demand, action or proceeding the parties will cooperate with each other and provide each other with access to relevant books and records in their possession. If a firm written offer is made to the Indemnifying Party to settle any such claim, demand, action or proceeding solely in exchange for monetary sums to be paid by the Indemnifying Party (and such settlement contains a complete release of the Indemnified Party and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees) and the Indemnifying Party proposes to accept such settlement and the Indemnified Party refuses to consent to such settlement, then (i) the Indemnifying Party will be excused from, and the Indemnified Party will be solely responsible for, all further defense of such claim, demand, action or proceeding, (ii) the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party relating to such claim, demand, action or proceeding will be the amount of the proposed settlement if the amount thereafter recovered from the Indemnified Party on such claim, demand, action or proceeding is greater than the amount of the proposed settlement, and (iii) the Indemnified Party will pay all attorneys’ fees and legal costs and expenses incurred after rejection of such settlement by the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if the amount thereafter recovered by the third party from the Indemnified Party is less than the amount of the proposed settlement, the Indemnified Party will be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party for such attorneys’ fees and legal costs and expenses up to a maximum amount equal to the difference between the amount recovered by the third party and the amount of the proposed settlement.

 

 

 

 

ARTICLE VII

 

Conditions

 

7.1 Parent Conditions to the Distribution. The obligations of Parent pursuant to this Agreement to effect the Spin-Off are subject to the fulfillment (or waiver by Parent pursuant to Section 7.2) on or prior to the Spin-Off Date (provided that certain of such conditions will occur substantially contemporaneous with the Spin-Off) of the following conditions:

 

(a) the Parent and the Subsidiary shall have completed the debt conversion proposal made to all creditors of both the Parent and the Subsidiary, as described in the Parent’s Form 8k filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated December 15, 2015, and a subsequent Form 8K dated December 21, 2015;

 

7.2 Waiver of PUBCO Conditions. The conditions set forth in Section 7.1 hereof (excluding the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b)) may be waived in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of Parent. The conditions set forth in Section 7.1 (excluding the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b)) are for the sole benefit of Parent and will not give rise to or create any duty on the part of Parent or the Board of Directors of Parent to waive or not waive any such conditions.

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

Termination

 

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by Parent, in its sole discretion, prior to the date the Board of Directors of Parent declares a dividend giving effect to the Spin-Off.

 

8.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 8.1, then this Agreement will forthwith become void and there will be no liability on the part of any party to any other party or any other Person in respect hereof regardless of the circumstances.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

Miscellaneous

 

9.1 Survival. All representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement or made pursuant to this Agreement will expire as of the Spin-Off Date without further action by the parties, with the result that if the Spin-Off Date occurs, no party will have any liability or obligation in respect thereof, whether asserted before or after the Spin-Off Date, other than for actual fraud. The agreements contained herein that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Spin-Off Date will survive indefinitely.

 

9.2 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by the written agreement of the parties hereto or thereto.

 

9.3 Waiver of Compliance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the failure by any Person to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition under such agreements may be waived by the Person entitled to the benefit thereof only by a written instrument signed by the Person granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition will not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. The failure of any Person to enforce at any time any of the provisions of such agreements will in no way be construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of such agreements or any part thereof or the right of any Person thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of such provisions will be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

 

 

 

 

9.4 Notices. All notices required or permitted pursuant to this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to be properly given when actually received by the Person entitled to receive the notice at the address stated below, or at such other address as a party may provide by notice to the other:

9.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the signatories hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. None of the parties may assign this Agreement, or any of their rights or liabilities thereunder, without the prior written consent of the other parties thereto, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent will be null and void. Any such assignment will not relieve the party making the assignment from any liability under such agreements.

 

9.7 Severability. The illegality or partial illegality of any or all of this Agreement or any provision hereof, will not affect the validity of the remainder of such agreements, or any provision thereof, and the illegality or partial illegality of any such agreements will not affect the validity of any such agreements in any jurisdiction in which such determination of illegality or partial illegality has not been made, except in either case to the extent such illegality or partial illegality causes such agreements to no longer contain all of the material provisions reasonably expected by the parties to be contained therein.

 

9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and wholly performed within such state, without regard to any applicable conflict of laws principles.

Each party irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Spin-Off, any provision hereof, the breach, performance, validity or invalidity hereof or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by another party hereto or its successors or permitted assigns may only be brought and determined in any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware, and each party hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each party hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Spin-Off, any provision hereof or the breach, performance, enforcement, validity or invalidity hereof, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

 

9.10 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take all actions as are necessary on its part to the consummation of the Spin-Off, will cause irreparable injury to the other parties for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder.

 

9.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

 

9.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement), constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

TRUNITY HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Annual Report”), filed with the Commission on April 15, 2015. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trunity Holdings, Inc. (“Trunity” or the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Trunity, Inc. (“Trunity, Inc.” or the “Company”), as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

 

The Company is a “C” Corporation organized under the laws of Delaware with principal offices located in Davie, Florida. The Company was formed on July 28, 2009 to develop a cloud-based platform that focuses on collaborative knowledge management, publishing and education delivery platform – the Trunity eLearning Platform (the “Platform”) – which provides an end-to-end solution for the rapidly growing digital textbook, eLearning and enterprise training marketplaces.

 

The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net losses, working capital deficiencies, and negative operating cash flows since its inception. To the extent the Company continues to experience working capital deficiencies and negative cash flows in the future, it will continue to require additional capital to fund operations. The Company has historically obtained additional capital investments under various debt and Common Stock issuances. Although management continues to pursue its financing plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in generating sufficient revenues to provide positive cash flow or that financing at acceptable terms, if at all will be available. In addition, the Company has defaulted on the majority its lease and debt obligations as of September 30, 2015. Although the Company is currently in negotiations related to these defaults, there is no assurance that any negotiations will be successful in reducing the Company’s liabilities under default. Based on these factors, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

There was no material changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2014 Annual Report.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new pronouncement that requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The pronouncement becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company believes adoption of the pronouncement will not have a significant impact on the financial statements or its results of operations.

January-September 2015 Unsecured Redeemable Debentures (Series F)

 

In 2015, the Company borrowed from accredited investors and related parties (the “Debenture Holders”) $402,000 ($130,000 was provided by an officer and board member of the Company) pursuant to an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series F (the “Series F Debentures”) that required payment of interest at the end of the three-month Debenture term in the amount of 10% of the principal amount. The holders of the Series F Debentures also received warrants to acquire 402,000 shares of Common Stock for an exercise price of $0.15 per share, exercisable over three years.. In addition, the Company will issue the Debenture Holders warrants (the “2015 Warrant”) to purchase 402,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per 0000 Xxxxxxx Share to be determined. The Company incurred no commission costs in connection with these transactions. The Series F Debentures are convertible into Common Stock at $.03 per share as to principal plus accrued interest upon an event of default.

 

The Company allocated the face value of the Series F Debentures to the warrants and the debentures based on their relative fair values, allocated $2,702 to the warrants, and determined that there were aggregate beneficial conversion features of $268,504. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Xxxxxxx-Xxxxxx (“BSM”) valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 38.96% to 45.08%, risk free rate – 0.83% to 1.13 %, dividend rate – 0.00%. The amounts allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features totaling $271,206 were recorded as a discount against the Series F Debentures, with offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series F Debentures.

 

As of September 30, 2015, the carrying value of the Series F Debentures was $402,000 as the discount had been fully amortized. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded amortization of the discount of $37,315 and $271,206, respectively and interest expense of $20,356 and $48,742, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company defaulted on some of the Series F debentures and as a result began accruing daily interest at a default rate of 18% per annum.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, $319,000 of the Series F Debentures matured without payment creating an event of default. Consequently, the aggregate principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest is convertible into Common Stock at $.03 per share. As of September 30, 2015, the Debentures were convertible into an aggregate of 10,633,333 shares. At this time, the Company is in discussion with the Debenture Holders and no notices of conversion of these debentures have been received as of December 7, 2015.

 

November and December 2014 Unsecured Redeemable Debentures (Series E)

 

In October and November 2014, the Company borrowed from accredited investors and a related party (the “Debenture Holders”) $145,000 pursuant to an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series E (the “Series E Debentures”) that required payment of interest at the end of the nine-month Debenture term in the amount of 15% of the principal amount. The holders of the Series E Debentures also received warrants to acquire 145,000 shares of Common Stock for an exercise price of $0.15 per share, exercisable over four years equal. In addition, the Company will issue the Debenture Holders warrants (the “2015 Warrant”) to purchase 145,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per 0000 Xxxxxxx Share to be determined. The Company incurred no commission costs in connection with these transactions. The Series E Debentures are convertible into Common Stock at $.03 per share as to principal plus accrued interest upon an event of default.

The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features totaling $145,000 was recorded as a discount against the Series E Debentures, with offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series E Debentures.

The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features totaling $271,877 was recorded as a discount against the Series D Debentures, with offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. A portion of the discount resulting in $237,227 was fully expensed upon execution of the new debentures as debt extinguishment costs and the remaining amount of $34,650 is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series D Debentures.

In November 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“Peak”) pursuant to which the Company sold to Peak for $112,500 a Convertible Debenture (the “Peak Debenture”) in the principal amount of $125,000 (the “Principal Amount”) due on November 6, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). Pursuant to the Peak Debenture, the Company agreed to pay interest on the Principal Amount outstanding from time to time in arrears (i) upon conversion or (ii) on the Maturity Date, at the rate of 5% per annum. The Company has the option to redeem the Peak Debenture prior to the Maturity Date at any time or from time to time by paying the Principal Amount plus accrued interest and a redemption premium of 20% of principal if the redemption is between 91-180 days after issuance and 40% of principal after 180 days Beginning 91 days after the issue date, Peak may convert the principal and accrued interest (the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price for each share of Common Stock (the “Conversion Price”) equal to 65% of the lowest closing bid price (as reported by Bloomberg LP) of Common Stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion of the Peak Debenture (subject to equitable adjustments resulting from any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar events).

 

The Company paid issuance costs of $10,000 and issued 137,500 shares of restricted common stock to cover the expenses incurred and analysis performed by Peak in connection with the transaction. The fair value of the 137,500 shares of restricted stock of $24,750, and $10,000 of issuance costs added to the principal, were recorded as deferred issuance costs to be amortized into interest expense over the term of the Peak Debenture.

 

The Peak Debenture was convertible into a variable number of shares based upon a fixed dollar amount and therefore treated as stock settled debt in accordance with ASC 480. On the date of issuance, the Company recorded the fair value of the financial instrument of $66,423 as a stock settled debt obligation along with debt discount of $12,500 to be amortized into interest expense through the maturity date.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized $39,601 and $63,087, respectively, of amortization of the discounts; $17,831 and $33,005 respectively, of amortization of deferred financing fees; and a loss on the redemption of $14,000 of the debenture.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Peak converted $90,000 of principal into 8,825,690 shares of Common Stock and the Company redeemed the remaining principal amount of $35,000 in exchange for $49,000 of cash resulting in a loss on redemption of $14,000. Upon conversion and payment to Peak, the Company recorded the fair value of the stock settled debt of $155,631 to additional paid-in capital. The deferred financing costs were accelerated to interest expense through the date of conversion, which is included $17,831 and $34,750 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 as noted above. As of September 30, 2015, the Peak Debenture is fully redeemed.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE DEBT – Continued

  

July 2014 Convertible Promissory Notes

 

In July 2014, the Company issued Convertible Promissory Notes with an aggregate face value of $52,500 for cash ($27,500 was provided by the CEO and CFO and two board members). The Convertible Promissory Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of 10%, mature in July 2015, and are convertible into the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion rate of $0.165 per share. The holders of the Convertible Promissory Notes also received warrants to acquire 318,182 shares of Common Stock for an exercise price of $0.50 per share, exercisable over five years.

 

The Company allocated the proceeds from the Convertible Promissory Notes to the warrants and the notes based on their relative fair values, allocated $6,117 to the warrants, and determined that there were aggregate beneficial conversion features of $8,512. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the BSM valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 43.99% to 44.08%, risk free rate – 1.66 to 1.74% %, dividend rate – 0.00%. The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features; totaling $14,629, was recorded as a discount against the Convertible Promissory Notes with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Convertible Promissory Notes.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded amortization of the discount of $156 and $7,411, respectively. During the three and nine months September 30, 2015, the Company recorded interest expense of $1,303 and $3,912, respectively. As of September 30, 2015, the carrying value of the Convertible Promissory Notes was $52,500 due to the fact that there was no remaining unamortized discount.

 

NOTE 6 – STOCK SETTLED DEBT OBLIGATION

 

The Company determined that the conversion feature included in the November 2014 Peak Debenture required liability treatment because it was convertible into a fixed dollar amount based on a variable conversion rate. Because of the uncertainty regarding the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issuable upon the conversion of the convertible debt, the conversion option is required to be accounted for separately and presented as a stock settled debt obligation on the Company’s balance sheet, with subsequent changes in fair value reported in the Company’s statement of operations. On the date of issuance, the Company recorded a stock settled debt obligation of $66,423 with an offsetting discount against the convertible debt to be amortized into interest expense through the maturity of the convertible debt. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the holder of the Peak Debenture elected to convert $90,000 of principal into 8,825,690 shares of Common Stock and the Company repaid the remaining principal balance of $35,000 in cash. The Company adjusted the stock settled debt obligation to its fair value on the dates of conversion and settlement, and reclassified their fair value, totaling $65,422, to additional paid in capital. The Company used Monte Carlo simulations and the following assumptions in estimating the fair value of the embedded conversion option through the settlement dates:

  

Expected Volatility     37.2% - 44.50%  
Expected Term     2.28 -2.85 Years  
Risk-Free Interest Rate     0.51% - 1.02%  
Dividend Rate     —

NOTE 7 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

In 2009, the Company approved the 2009 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “2009 Plan”) and authorized an option pool of 5,500,000 shares that was subject to a 3 for 1 reverse stock split, resulting in an authorized option pool of 1,833,333. Stock options typically vest over a three-year period and have a life of ten years from the date granted. In 2009, the Company accelerated the option vesting of certain employees who terminated their employment, but agreed to work in a consulting capacity. In exchange for the accelerated vesting, the employees agreed to shorter expiration periods for their options. As of September 30, 2015, there were 364,567 shares available for awards under this plan.

 

In 2012, the Company approved the 2012 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and authorized an option pool of 7,500,000 shares. Stock options typically vest over a three-year period and have a life of ten years from the date granted. As of September 30, 2015, there were 4,643,000 shares available for awards under this plan.

 

On February 12, 2014, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx resigned from his positions as Chairman, Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors has commenced a search for a permanent CEO and has appointed Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx-XxXxxxxx, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as CEO to serve until a permanent CEO is hired.

 

As a result of Xx. Xxxxxxxx’x resignation pursuant to the December 2013 non-qualified stock option agreement between him and the Company, which granted to him options to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock outside of the Company’s 2009 and 2012 stock option plans (the “Option Agreement”), options to purchase 1,500,000 shares of stock were automatically cancelled, leaving 2,500,000 outstanding options. These options covered 1,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.30 per share and three tranches of 500,000 shares each at an exercise price of $0.40, $0.60 and $0.70 per share, respectively. The Company believes that some or all of the remaining options under the Option Agreement, representing 1,500,000 shares in three tranches of 500,000 shares each at exercise prices of $0.40, $0.60 and $0.70, respectively, should be cancelled based on the circumstances of Xx. Xxxxxxxx’x resignation. Xx. Xxxxxxxx disputes the Company’s position. If the dispute is not settled, the matter is subject to binding arbitration. No demand for arbitration has been filed by either party.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company issued to employees, directors or consultants 40,000 and 170,000, respectively, options to acquire shares of Common Stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued to employees, directors or consultants 195,000 and 1,329,000, respectively, to acquire shares of Common Stock.

The grant-date fair value of options is estimated using the BSM valuation model. The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted during 2015 was $0.07 and was determined using the following assumptions: expected price volatility is 49.6%, risk-free interest rate of 1.06%, zero expected dividend yield, and 6.5 years expected life of options. The expected term of options granted is based on the simplified method in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company makes assumptions with respect to expected stock price volatility based on the average historical volatility of peers with similar attributes. In addition, the Company determines the risk free rate by selecting the U.S. Treasury with maturities similar to the expected terms of grants, quoted on an investment basis in effect at the time of grant for that business day.

 

In July 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved the modification of outstanding options to acquire 3,306,666 shares, reducing the then-applicable exercise price from $0.11 per share, to $0.01 per share, the market price at the time. The Company compared the fair value of the options immediately prior to the modification to their fair value immediately after the modification and determined that the option holders received incremental compensation of $17,456, of which $14,700 was related to fully vested options and recognized as expense on the date of modification, and $2,756 will be recognized as stock based compensation expense over remaining vesting periods through January 2018.

 

As of September 30, 2015, there was approximately $28,426 of total unrecognized stock compensation expense, related to unvested stock options under both Plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting periods of the outstanding options of .42 years.

NOTE 8 – WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company issued, in connection with the issuance of debentures, warrants to purchase 528,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.15 and $0.20. All warrants outstanding as of September 30, 2015 are scheduled to expire at various dates through 2019.

 

The grant-date fair value of warrants is estimated using the BSM valuation model. The per share weighted average fair value of the warrants granted during 2015 was $0.17 and was determined using the following assumptions: expected price volatility ranging between 38.96% to 49.60%, risk-free interest rate ranging between 0.83% to 1.13%, zero expected dividend yield, and 3.0 year life of warrants. The Company makes assumptions with respect to expected stock price volatility based on the average historical volatility of peers with similar attributes. In addition, the Company determines the risk-free rate by selecting the U.S. Treasury with maturities similar to the expected terms of grants, quoted on an investment basis in effect at the time of grant for that business day.

Discount related to issuance of debt with warrants and allocated fair value to beneficial conversion feature

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company raised gross proceeds of $402,000 pursuant to the issuance of an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series F (the “Series F Debentures”) with detachable stock warrants. The Company allocated the value of the Series F Debentures and the warrants based on their relative fair values, which resulted in a discount to the carrying value of the Series F Debentures. As a result of the allocation a beneficial conversion feature was created totaling $274,122, which was recorded as a discount against the Series F Debentures, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in-capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series F Debentures.

Leases

 

On August 9, 2013, the Company commenced a lease for 8,713 square feet for its former corporate offices located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire which had a five-year term ending on September 8, 2018. The monthly rental payments for the first year were $10,165 per month and were scheduled to increase on each anniversary at a rate of 3% per annum. The Company was required to pay its proportionate share of the building’s common area maintenance (“CAM”), real estate taxes, utilities serving the premises and the cost of premises janitorial service estimated to be $5,210 on a monthly basis.

 

On August 11, 2014, the landlord declared the Company in default based on its failure to pay rent and other charges due since July 2014. The Company vacated the premises on August 22, 2014, and moved its office to smaller, less expensive premises in the neighboring area. Past due amounts owed on the lease through the date of surrender of the premises total approximately $51,000. Total payments from the date of surrender through the end of the lease would be approximately $900,000 if the space was not occupied however on January 1, 2015 the space was leased to a new tenant controlled by the former CEO thereby mitigating the liability to the Company. The Company is attempting to negotiate a settlement of the lease with the landlord based on an offset for the fair market rental value of the premises and a discount to present value, as well as a discount based on the Company’s precarious financial condition. In addition, the Company has accrued all past due amounts fully and an additional amount based on an offer of settlement presented to the landlord. There can be no assurance that settlement of this lease will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. No legal demands have been filed by either party.

 

In April 2015, the Company executed a lease that commenced on May 1, 2015 for office space located in Davie, Florida. The lease has monthly payments of $954 per month for a nine-month term and has an option to extend for another nine-month term.

 

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

During the fourth quarter of 2015, $83,000 of the Series F Debentures matured without payment creating an event of default. Consequently the aggregate principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest is convertible into Common Stock at .03 per share.

 

As of November 23 2015, the Debentures were convertible into an aggregate of 276,667 shares. The Company is in discussion with the Debenture Holders and no notices of conversion of these debentures have been received as of November 23, 2015. See Note 5 for the terms of the Series F Debentures.

 

 

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for operations. At September 30, 2015, we had negative working capital of $4,001,237 as compared to negative working capital of $3,071,463 at December 31, 2014. Based on these factors, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our current assets at September 30, 2015 totaled $51,905 in cash and $37,000 accounts receivable, which compared to $14,119 in cash and $3,020 in accounts receivable at December 31, 2014. Our current liabilities of $4,216,307 at September 30, 2015 and $3,229,093 at December 31, 2014 included accounts payables, notes payable – related parties, accrued interest, professional fees and vacation expense and amounts owed to shareholders for working capital loans, convertible note payables and deferred revenue.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $274,317 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $1,301,212 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Working capital changes consumed cash of $482,986 for the current period compared to $424,841 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was mainly attributed to the increase in interest expense as a result of the default rates for servicing of the debt. In addition, our net loss was impacted by non-cash expenses related to depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and accounting for accretion for debt discounts and issuance costs, as well as accounting for the loss on debt extinguishment for our debentures and convertible debt.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $90,897 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to net cash used of $491,772 for the same nine months in 2014. The reduction in net cash used in our investing activities was largely due to the fact that we have completed much of the development on the next generation Trunity eLearning Platform and expect to have a full commercial launch of Version 3.0 in the beginning of 2016.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $403,000 as compared to $990,009 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This decrease was due to more proceeds being raised from the sale of common stock and issuance of debentures in the first and second quarter of 2014.

 

We have concluded that, notwithstanding a substantial increase in sales of its products and services in recent months, particularly in international markets, we will not be able to implement its business plan unless it is able to promptly (i) substantially reduce its debt burden, which is now over $4 million, including accounts payable, debenture obligations and other commitments, most of which are past due, and (ii) raise substantial additional capital. Further, we concluded that the our education technology business (the “Trunity Business”) will be best developed through a privately held company, without the additional cost and complexity associated with operating as a public company.

 

Consistent with these goals, on November 11, 2015, we entered into a nonbinding letter of intent (“LOI”) with Newco4Pharmacy LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“N4P"). Under the terms of the LOI, we would acquire 100% of the membership interests of N4P in exchange for newly authorized preferred stock, which would be issued to the N4P members and be convertible at the election of the holders into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 85–90% (depending on the ultimate level of debt conversion) of the shares outstanding at the time (the “Acquisition”). We will acquire all of the goodwill and underlying business plan of N4P, which contemplates a rollup of businesses in the compounding pharmacy industry, including all potential acquisition documents. A condition of the closing of the Acquisition is conversion of at least 90% of the our debts (other than liability to professionals) into equity at a price of $.03 per share. Shortly after closing of the N4P Acquisition, the Trunity Business would be spun out to a separate privately held company (“New Trunity”) owned by the legacy Trunity shareholders (including those who acquired shares by debt conversion) proportionate to their shares of Trunity (the “Spin Out”). Following the Acquisition,we principally would be owned and managed by the former N4P members, will retain responsibility for paying certain of the our debts. The remaining debts will be the responsibility of New Trunity following the Spin Out.

 

As of the date of this Report, the majority of the our debt holders have agreed to convert their debts into common stock conditioned upon closing of the Acquisition. We believe that the Acquisition will be closed by mid-December 2015; however, there can be no assurance that this will occur. Regardless of whether or not the Acquisition is consummated, we will need to raise substantial capital in the coming weeks in order to continue operations; however, there could be no assurance that this capital will be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

 

We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures during the next 12 months nor do we have any committed external sources of capital. We do not believe our working capital is sufficient to fund our operations and permit us to satisfy our obligations as they become due and as a result we may not be able to continue operations. We have continued to expand our business and our expenses are much greater than revenues despite our focused cost-control efforts. Even if we are successful in substantially increasing our revenues from expected sales, we will still need to raise substantial additional working capital. We do not have any firm commitments to provide the additional capital which is needed and there are no assurances that we will be able to secure capital on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our ability to significantly increase our revenues and successfully raise additional working capital is key to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are not successful in both of these efforts, we may be forced to significantly curtail or cease our operations.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 9, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Newco4Pharmacy, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“N4P”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of N4P in exchange for newly authorized preferred stock, which will be issued to the N4P members and be convertible into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to approximately 90% of the shares outstanding at the time (the “Acquisition”). Per the Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the assets, goodwill and the business plan of N4P, including a letter of intent for a potential acquisition.

 

N4P’s business plan contemplates a roll-up of businesses in the compounding pharmacy industry. The plan envisions multiple acquisitions of businesses who have traditionally operated locally, but who have specialty formulations that may have a larger market, nationally or internationally, with a significant sales and marketing presence. N4P also intends to seek compounding pharmacies that serve the veterinary markets, as well as for humans. To achieve its goals, it intends to acquire a number of pharmacies across the US with the eventual objective of establishing a national online pharmacy. The online pharmacy will be named, True Nature Pharmacy and will be a wholly owned subsidiary, which will sell the product mix nationally through online and mail order marketing distribution channels. Lastly, N4P intends to change the name of the Company to True Nature Holdings, Inc., but will maintain the current stock symbol, TNTY.

 

A condition of the closing of the Acquisition was conversion of at least 90% of the Company’s debts into equity at a price of $.03 per share. It has received commitments from a majority of the debt holders to complete this conversion, and is in the process of communicating with the remaining debt holders. After conversion of debts, there will be approximately 190 million shares outstanding, with the debt holders receiving around 70% of outstanding shares issued, and existing equity holders having around 30% shares outstanding. All of these shareholders will be subject to the effect of a planned restructuring of Trunity’s equity, to include a reverse split of the common stock in a range that is estimated to be approximately 19 to 1, such that when completed each holder of 19 shares will have one outstanding share and total shares outstanding for the Company will be approximately 12,000,000. As the restructuring plan is implemented over the next few weeks, details regarding the conversions will be communicated.

 

The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Securities Exchange Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Shortly after closing of the Acquisition, pursuant to the Agreement, the Company’s legacy business, which is currently held in a wholly owned subsidiary, will be spun out into a separate privately held company (“New Trunity”) owned by the legacy Trunity shareholders (including those who acquired shares by debt conversion) proportionate to their shares of Trunity (the “Spin Out”). The N4P holders will not participate in the ownership of the Spin Out and each shareholder of the Company on the effective date will receive one share of the Spin-Out, or a pro-rata percentage depending on the ultimate share structure adopted by the Spin-Out.

Following the Acquisition, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx-XxXxxxxx, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer will resign from her current position in order to allow the new owners, N4P, to manage the Company as they will retain the responsibility for paying certain of its debts. Xx. Xxxxxxxxx-XxXxxxxx will remain as the Chief Executive Officer of the operating subsidiary that is intended to be spun out and any remaining debts of the operating subsidiary will be the responsibility of New Trunity following the Spin Out.

 

In conjunction with the Spin Out, the Company intends to a) reduce its shares outstanding through a reverse split of its common stock, estimated at 19 to one, depending on the amount of debt converted into stock, and b) increase its authorized shares to 500 million common, and 100 million shares of preferred, with the rights of the preferred stock to be established at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Upon completion, the Company intends to have approximately 12,000,000 shares outstanding, with N4P holders owning 10,000,000 upon conversion of the Preferred X issued to it in the acquisition, and the legacy shareholders (along with the converting debt holders) owning not less than 1,000,000, and as much as 1,750,000 common shares, with the final number to be determined based on the amount of debt converted. Final details will be published in subsequent Form 8k filings as these actions are completed.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) believes the Acquisition and the Spin Out are in the best interest of the stockholders and the creditors of the Company. While considering the approval of the Acquisition and the Spin Out, the Board considered the following factors:

 

·   The Company currently had over $4 million in debt obligations, including accounts payable, debenture obligations and other commitments, many of which are, or soon will, be in default. As such, the Board considered the need to address the interests of these creditors and their ability to enforce rights that could result in material adverse consequences to the Company;  
   
· The Board, after making substantial efforts to raise capital over many months, was unable to find the funding needed to continue to operate the legacy Trunity business, and believed that no such funding could be secured until the Company substantially improved its balance sheet, primarily by a sizable reduction in its debt obligations;  
   
· The Board, after a review of the Company’s business plan and expenses, current and projected, concluded that operating the Company as a public company, with the associated accounting, legal and administrative expenses, would make it difficult to allow it to achieve profitably or repay its obligations to creditors;  
   
· The other financing options considered by the Board did not result in letters of intent or viable offers primarily because of the financial condition of the Company;  
   
· The N4P Acquisition and Spin Out plan was approved by the majority of the Company’s creditors and allows the stockholders of the Company the opportunity to continue to benefit from the legacy Trunity business activity as owners of the private entity while also participating in the value proposition associated with the N4P business plan and acquisition strategy that will hold the business going forward.  

 

The Board considered these and other factors when considering the Transaction and the Spin Out. There can be no assurance that the Spin Out will be completed successfully, or that the legacy Trunity business will be more successful without the costs associated with being a public company. In addition, Newco4Pharmacy, LLC does not have an operating history, and there can be no assurance that it will be able to successfully implement its business plan, execute the planned acquisitions or operate profitably.

Accounting Treatment of the Transaction

 

Notwithstanding the fact that the Company was the legal acquirer under the Transaction and remains the registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reporting purposes, N4P is considered the accounting acquirer.  Thus, the Transaction will be accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting.

  

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

The Transaction was completed on December 9, 2015. No Company stockholder approval was required by Delaware law or other rules or regulations. The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is hereby incorporated by reference.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

As described in Item 1.01 above, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, the Company issued shares of Series X Preferred Stock to the Newco4Pharmacy, LLC unit holders. The offer and sale of the shares of Series X Preferred Stock in connection with the Securities Exchange Agreement were made in reliance on an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. The terms of the Series X Preferred Stock are set forth in Item 5.03 below.

 

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

 

Upon the closing of the Transaction, a change of control of the Company occurred, with Newco4Pharmacy acquiring shares that resulted in control of the Company by NewCo4Pharmacy members. As of December 10, 2015 and after giving effect to the Transaction, Newco4Pharmacy held approximately 90% of the outstanding voting rights of the Company’s capital stock, though this percentage may be reduced to 85% if all debt holders of the Company and its operating subsidiary were to convert into common stock at $.03 per share.

Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation.

 

Certificate of Designation - Series X Preferred Stock

 

On December 10, 2015, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Designation of Series X Preferred Stock designating 1,000 shares of Series X Preferred Stock.

 

Rank. With respect to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Series X Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with the Company’s Common Stock.

 

Dividends. The Company may not declare, pay, or set aside for payment any dividend payable in cash, property, or evidences of indebtedness, on shares of common stock unless and until the Company shall have declared and paid a dividend on the Series X Preferred Stock in an amount at least equal to an amount at least equal to the product of (A) the amount proposed to be paid in common stock, multiplied by (B) the Series X Preferred Stock conversion rate.

 

 

6 

 

 

Voting Rights. Except for certain matters delineated in the Certificate of Designation, Holders of Series X Preferred Stock shall vote together with holders of common stock as a single class on all matters submitted for consideration by holders of voting securities. Each share of Series X Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to a number of votes equal to the conversion rate, rounded to the next highest share. The conversion rate will allow the Series X Preferred Stock holders to control approximately 90% of the vote of the Company.

 

It is expected that all of the Series X Preferred Stockholders will convert their shares into common stock upon the filing of an Amended Certificate of Incorporation which will, among other things, increase the number of authorized shares of the Company to permit the conversion. The Company believes this will occur prior to December 31, 2015.

Unless otherwise indicated in this Current Report or the context otherwise requires, all references in this Current Report to “Trunity Holdings,” “Trunity,” the “Company, ”us,” “our” or “we” are to Trunity Holdings, Inc.

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 15, 2015 the Company filed a Form 8k in which it disclosed a series of events, including an acquisition, a planned change in the capital structure of the Company, and a planned spin-out of its operating subsidiary and related educational solution business and assets to its shareholders of record as of December 18, 2015. This filing updates shareholders on those events.

 

On December 9, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Newco4Pharmacy, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“N4P”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of N4P in exchange for newly authorized preferred stock, which will be issued to the N4P members and be convertible into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to approximately 90% of the shares outstanding (the “Acquisition”). Per the Agreement, the Company has acquired all of the assets, goodwill and the business plan of N4P, including a letter of intent for a planned acquisition.

 

The Company, and the former shareholders of N4P, with the approval of the Board of Directors, have agreed to modify the terms to provide that N4P members shall convert its Preferred X stock into 10,000,000 shares of common stock, and that number shall be equal to 85% of the shares outstanding, with the balance of 15% to be allocated to the shareholders of record on December 18, 2015 including those debt holders who have agreed to convert their debt into stock, as well as shares allocated to the spin out. No conversion of the Preferred X shall occur until the completion of the spin out and the conversion of debt and related share issuance. This increases the amount and percentage of shares to legacy shareholders, and debt holders who agreed to convert, from 10%, to 15%.

 

Another provision of the Agreement was a requirement that at least 90% of the debts of the Company be converted into equity at $.03 per share. This condition has been waived by the N4P holders. Of the original $4,036,227 debts it had before the conversion began, only $1,368,637, remain with $600,426 at the public, holding company level, and $768,211 attributable to the obligations of the holding company, 34% of the total original debt before the debt conversion effort began.

 

As of December 18, 2015, including existing equity holders of 63,628,821 (36% of the total), and 114,526,684 shares (64% of the total) allocated to the conversion of debt of the public holding company, and for the obligations of the operating subsidiary in the spin out, there will be 178,155,505 shares outstanding immediately prior to the spin out. In addition, if exercised, there would be an additional 7,924,589 shares underlying previously issued warrants, and 6,855,766 shares attributable to previously issued stock options. The warrants and options in place will remain, and will not be canceled, though they will be modified as a result of the restructuring in share number and strike price, along with all other equity and debt instruments of the Company upon completion of the announced restructuring.

 

The shareholders of record as of December 18, 2015 shall receive a pro-rata interest in the spin out. All shareholders immediately before completion of the restructuring will own a pro-rata share of 15% of the restructured public company shares, after giving effect to the conversion of the Preferred X owned by the N4P holders as a result of the acquisition of N4P by the Company.

 

As of the close of business on December 18, 2015, within the obligations of the public, holding company, a total of $2,251,052 of the Company’s debenture and note holders have converted, for a total of 75,035,067 shares issued. This leaves only $600,426 of payables at the public holding company level, and the Company believes it will be able to rework, or convert, those debts at a later time.

 

As of the close of business on December 18, 2015, within the educational solutions business operating subsidiary that be spun-out, a total of $416,538 of the obligations have been converted, for a total of 13,884,600 shares issued. This leaves $768,211 of obligations remaining at the operating level. Conversions of debt at the operating subsidiary level are continuing to be discussed, and if all were to convert 25,607,018 additional shares would be issued. The Company has decided to issue the remaining shares allocated for conversion of the debts to the operating subsidiary as if all the debt had converted. This should better position the subsidiary to be better able to operate after the spin out into a private company.

After conversion of debts at the public holding company and the operating subsidiary, and the allocation of shares to the operating subsidiary, subject to the spin out, there will be 178,155,505 million shares outstanding, before the conversion of the Preferred X, or the effect of the restructuring. These shareholders will be subject to the effect of the announced restructuring of all of the Company’s debt and equity instruments, to include a reverse split of the common stock of 100.93 to 1, such that each holder of 101 shares will have one outstanding share, and total shares outstanding for the Company will be 11,765,000. Also all fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole number of shares and the shares will be in addition to the 11,765,000 shares described herein.

 

The total outstanding share count will include 10,000,000 shares owned by N4P’s former members, and 1,765,000 shares that the legacy shareholders of the public company will own, including legacy equity holders in the public company, those debt holders in the public company who have agreed to convert, and the shares allocated to conversion of debt, and recapitalization of the operating subsidiary upon its spin out into a private company. This will complete the agreed upon share exchange such that the N4P holders will own 85% of the shares and the legacy holders will own 15%.We intend to complete the restructuring as of December 30, 2015, or at the earliest possible date thereafter, subject to regulatory approval.

 

The holders of previously issued warrants and options will be notified of the effect of the restructuring and the reverse split.

 

The ownership of the spin out company containing the operations and assets of the educational solutions business shall be the same as the ownership of the public company immediately prior to the spin out and the conversion of the Preferred X owned by the N4P members. N4P’s former members will not participate in this ownership. The spin out will have 10,000,000 shares outstanding at the time of the spin out, and the allocation of shares will be 17.82 shares issued for every one share in the public company held immediately before the spin out. Also all fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole number of shares and the shares will be in addition to the 11,765,000 shares described herein.

 

Shares in the spin out will be issued to those holders of record as of December 18, 2015, as soon as practical after the spin out. The Company intends to complete the spin out on December 30, 2015, or at the earliest possible date thereafter, subject to regulatory approval.

 

Subject to regulatory approval, the restructured public company will be named True Nature Holdings, Inc., and will consist of 500,000,000 authorized common shares, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. There will be 11,765,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the completion of the restructuring, and no shares of preferred stock will be issued. It is a Delaware “C” corporation. Its offices are located at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, Georgia and its Chairman and CEO is Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx.

 

The spin out company will be named Trunity, Inc., a Florida “C” corporation, and it will have 100,000,000 authorized common shares and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. There will be 10,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding at the time of the spin out, and no preferred shares issued. The issued shares will be allocated to the legacy equity owners of the public company, including those who converted their debt, as of the record date, December 18, 2015 and with the shares allocated for conversion of its debts, as if already converted, but reserved for such use. Its offices are located at Davie, Florida, and its CEO is Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx-XxXxxxxx.

 

After the spin out there will be no relationship between the public company and the spin out.

 

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

 

Upon the closing of the Transaction, a change of control of the Company occurred, with N4P acquiring shares that resulted in control of the Company by N4P members. As of December 10, 2015 and after giving effect to the Transaction, and the modifications described herein, Newco4Pharmacy now has 85% of the outstanding voting rights of the Company, and the legacy shareholders have 15%.

 

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On December 17, 2015 the Company issued a press release outlining the actions taken to restructure the Company, generally as described in this filing.

EXHIBIT F - FORM OF DEBT CONVERSION USED IN DEBT CONVERSION EFFORT

 

2015 Conversion Agreement AND RESTRUCTURING PLAN

 

Trunity Holdings, Inc.

 

November 25, 2015

 

Re: Conversion of Debt and or Debenture

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

You have informed me that Trunity Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “TNTY”) intends to implement a restructuring plan (the “2015 Restructuring Plan”) that includes the following steps:

 

A) The Company intends to acquire the assets and ownership interests of Newco4Pharmacy, LLC (the “Seller”, or “Newco”) for 1,000 shares of Series X Preferred Stock (the “Acquisition”);

 

B) we also intend to move all the current business operations and assets out of the Company (known as a “spin-out”) to a private company (“AssetCo”, for the purpose of this agreement), and all of the shareholders, including newly issued shares from the conversion of debts, will own the AssetCo on a pro-rata basis with their share of ownership in the Company, immediately prior to the spin-out, and;

 

C) the Company’s capital structure will be restructured so that upon conversion of the Preferred X, the existing shareholders will have at least 10% of the shares of the Company, and under certain conditions as much as 15% of the shares of the Company, after the restructuring, and immediately before the spin-out.

 

I understand that the closing of the Acquisition of Newco is anticipated to occur on November 30, 2015 (the “Closing Date”) or soon thereafter as possible, upon agreement by the above parties. The spin-out of AssetCo, and conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock, is expected to occur by December 31, 2015, subject to regulatory and other approvals.

 

You have further advised me that Seller has conditioned the closing of the Acquisition upon: (a) the conversion of all or substantially all outstanding debt and/or debentures into approximately ______ shares of common stock of the Company immediately following the Acquisition and (b) the transfer, prior to the Acquisition, of all assets and rights of the Company into a newly organized subsidiary of the Company AssetCo. To induce the Seller to complete the Acquisition, the undersigned, [Insert full name of entity executing conversion agreement](“Holder”), is irrevocably (i) executing and delivering this Conversion Agreement to the Company for the purpose of converting any and all of the debt and/or debentures held by Holder into common stock of the Company and common stock of AssetCo on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Conversion Agreement and (ii) releasing any and all claims Holder may have against the Company through the date hereof.

 

Holder has previously entered into a Debenture Agreement dated November __, 2015, by and between the Company and Holder (the “Debenture Agreement”).

 

Effective on the anticipated Closing Date of November 30, 2015, $___________ principal owed by the Company to Holder and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be converted into solely the right to receive upon delivery of [________] shares of the Company’s common stock and upon completion of the spin out transaction pro-rata shares of AssetCo’s common stock (the “Conversion Shares”). In the event the closing of the Acquisition occurs after the Closing Date, no additional interest shall accrue under the subject debt instruments and no change shall be made in the number of Conversion Shares issued to Holder.

 

 

 

 

Holder agrees to accept delivery of the Conversion Shares in full payment, accord, and satisfaction of the debenture and/or debt and all obligations of the Company due to Holder under the Transaction Documents or otherwise.

EXHIBIT G - FORM OF DEBT ASSIGNMENT

 

AGREEMENT FOR ASSISNGMENT OF DEBT

 

On this 31st day of December, 2015, the following parties enter into this agreement calling for the assignment of debt, between the following parties:

 

Whereas the COMPANY is Trunity Holdings, Inc., and the operating subsidiary is Trunity Inc., and both are Delaware corporations;

 

Whereas, the person, individual, or corporate entity, (the “VENDOR”) is:

NAME

ADDRESS

CITY, STATE ZIP

COUNTY

 

Whereas the VENDOR agrees that $is owed as of this date, including all fees, interest, or other costs as referenced on the attached schedule of debt. The obligation may currently be owed by Trunity Holdings, Inc. (OTC:TNTY), a Delaware corporation, or by its operating subsidiary, Trunity Inc., which is also a Delaware corporation. The VENDOR hereby agrees to allow the obligation of the COMPANY to be assigned, without exception or any conditions, to the newly formed corporation, Trunity Inc., a Florida corporation, and acknowledges that all obligations to pay the debt shall rest solely with Trunity, Inc., a Florida corporation. The VENDOR fully releases the COMPANY, whether it is Trunity Holdings, Inc., or the operating subsidiary, Trunity, Inc., both Delaware corporations, from any and all obligations as a result of the debt.

 

And the parties fully acknowledge that Trunity Holdings, Inc. has announced plans for a restructuring of its operations, and structure, to include a spin out its educational business assets and operations from its holding company and its operating subsidiary, into a newly formed corporation, Trunity, Inc., a Florida corporation.

 

The VENDOR agrees that it has read the Company’s form 10Q for the period ending 9/30/2015, which can be found at: xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/Xxxxxxxx/xxxxx/xxxx/000000/000000000000000000/xxxx_0x00.xxx and specifically is aware of the following language found in the liquidity section of the report:

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have concluded that, notwithstanding a substantial increase in sales of its products and services in recent months, particularly in international markets, we will not be able to implement its business plan unless it is able to promptly (i) substantially reduce its debt burden, which is now over $4 million, including accounts payable, debenture obligations and other commitments, most of which are past due, and (ii) raise substantial additional capital. Further, we concluded that our education technology business (the “Trunity Business”) will be best developed through a privately held company, without the additional cost and complexity associated with operating as a public company.

 

Consistent with these goals, on November 11, 2015, we entered into a nonbinding letter of intent (“LOI”) with Newco4Pharmacy LLC; a Georgia limited liability company (“N4P”). Under the terms of the LOI, we would acquire 100% of the membership interests of N4P in exchange for newly authorized preferred stock, which would be issued to the N4P members and be convertible at the election of the holders into a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 85–90% (depending on the ultimate level of debt conversion) of the shares outstanding at the time (the “Acquisition”). We will acquire all of the goodwill and underlying business plan of N4P, which contemplates a rollup of businesses in the compounding pharmacy industry, including all potential acquisition documents. A condition of the closing of the Acquisition is conversion of at least 90% of our debts (other than liability to professionals) into equity at a price of $.03 per share. Shortly after closing of the N4P Acquisition, the Trunity Business would be spun out to a separate privately held company (“New Trunity”) owned by the legacy Trunity shareholders (including those who acquired shares by debt conversion) proportionate to their shares of Trunity (the “Spin Out”). Following the Acquisition, we principally would be owned and managed by the former N4P members, will retain responsibility for paying certain of our debts. The remaining debts will be the responsibility of New Trunity following the Spin Out.

 

 

 

 

As of the date of this Report, the majority of our debt holders have agreed to convert their debts into common stock conditioned upon closing of the Acquisition. We believe that the Acquisition will be closed by mid-December 2015; however, there can be no assurance that this will occur. Regardless of whether or not the Acquisition is consummated, we will need to raise substantial capital in the coming weeks in order to continue operations; however, there could be no assurance that this capital will be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

 

We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures during the next 12 months nor do we have any committed external sources of capital. We do not believe our working capital is sufficient to fund our operations and permit us to satisfy our obligations as they become due and as a result we may not be able to continue operations. We have continued to expand our business and our expenses are much greater than revenues despite our focused cost-control efforts. Even if we are successful in substantially increasing our revenues from expected sales, we will still need to raise substantial additional working capital. We do not have any firm commitments to provide the additional capital which is needed and there are no assurances that we will be able to secure capital on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our ability to significantly increase our revenues and successfully raise additional working capital is key to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are not successful in both of these efforts, we may be forced to significantly curtail or cease our operations.

 

On December 15, 2015, the Company filed a Form 8k with the SEC, which can be found here: xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/Xxxxxxxx/xxxxx/xxxx/000000/000000000000000000/xxxx_0x.xxx. This document discussed the restructuring, including this language:

 

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) believes the Acquisition and the Spin Out are in the best interest of the stockholders and the creditors of the Company. While considering the approval of the Acquisition and the Spin Out, the Board considered the following factors:

 

● The Company currently had over $4 million in debt obligations, including accounts payable, debenture obligations and other commitments, many of which are, or soon will, be in default. As such, the Board considered the need to address the interests of these creditors and their ability to enforce rights that could result in material adverse consequences to the Company;
     
● The Board, after making substantial efforts to raise capital over many months, was unable to find the funding needed to continue to operate the legacy Trunity business, and believed that no such funding could be secured until the Company substantially improved its balance sheet, primarily by a sizable reduction in its debt obligations;
     
● The Board, after a review of the Company’s business plan and expenses, current and projected, concluded that operating the Company as a public company, with the associated accounting, legal and administrative expenses, would make it difficult to allow it to achieve profitably or repay its obligations to creditors;
     
● The other financing options considered by the Board did not result in letters of intent or viable offers primarily because of the financial condition of the Company;
     
● The N4P Acquisition and Spin Out plan was approved by the majority of the Company’s creditors and allows the stockholders of the Company the opportunity to continue to benefit from the legacy Trunity business activity as owners of the private entity while also participating in the value proposition associated with the N4P business plan and acquisition strategy that will hold the business going forward.

 

 

 

 

The Board considered these and other factors when considering the Transaction and the Spin Out. There can be no assurance that the Spin Out will be completed successfully, or that the legacy Trunity business will be more successful without the costs associated with being a public company. In addition, Newco4Pharmacy, LLC does not have an operating history, and there can be no assurance that it will be able to successfully implement its business plan, execute the planned acquisitions or operate profitably.

 

The VENDOR hereby agrees to all provisions of this agreement, and agrees the signature below is a representative of the debt holder who has full authority to make this agreement, and that the VENDOR hereby holds the COMPANY, where it by Trunity Holdings, Inc., or the operating subsidiary, Trunity, Inc., which are both Delaware corporations, harmless from any costs or obligations from this agreement, or the underlying debt.
