Overview
We were established to provide sophisticated fulfillment services to medical and retail stores, and cultivation facilities in the regulated cannabis industry throughoutthe United States and its territories. Such fulfillment services would only be provided to stores and facilities located in geographical areas where the governing state and local ordinances allow for the unfettered provisions of such services.
The fulfillment services that we currently are able to provide are summarized, as follows:
? Opportunity Assessment: For a standard fee, we will complete an Opportunity
Assessment for a client, which would include financial modeling, completed with
our proprietary assessment software.
? Application Filing Assistance: Based upon our knowledge of the various rules
and regulations of respective state and local jurisdictions, we will provide
turn-key application preparation and submission services for a client, and/or
provide consulting assistance to a client who is self-preparing their
application.
? Branding, Marketing and Administrative Consulting Services: Customers may
contract with us to use the Strainwise name, logo and affinity images in their
retail store locations. A monthly fee will permit a branding customer to use
the Strainwise brand at a specific location. In addition, we will assist
operators in marketing and managing their businesses, setting up new retail
locations and general business planning and execution at an hourly rate. This
includes services to establish an efficient, predictable production process, as
well as, nutrient recipes for consistent and appealing marijuana strains.
? Accounting and Financial Services: For a monthly fee, we will provide customers
with a fully implemented general ledger system, with an industry centric chart
of accounts, which enables management to readily monitor and manage all facets
of a marijuana medical dispensary and cultivation facility. We will provide
bookkeeping, accounts payable processing, cash management, general ledger
processing, financial statement preparation, state and municipal sales tax
filings, and state and federal income tax compilation and filings.
? Compliance Services: The rules, regulations and state laws governing the
production, distribution and retail sale of marijuana can be complex, and
compliance may prove cumbersome. Thus, customers may contract with us to
implement a compliance process, based upon the number and type of licenses and
permits for their specific business. We will provide this service on both an
hourly rate and stipulated monthly fee.
? Lending: We will provide loans to individuals and businesses in the cannabis
industry.
We do NOT grow marijuana plants, produce marijuana infused products, sell marijuana plants and/or sell marijuana infused products of any nature in any jurisdiction were such activity has not been legalized.
Historical Overview
Since the change in our business operations in 2017, we have secured debt and equity funding for operations from various sources, including the following:
Equity Funding OnFebruary 4, 2019 , the Company initiated a private equity offering to accredited investors (the "Offering") in accordance with Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act"). The Offering consisted of 2,000,000 units with each unit consisting of one share of the Company's Common Stock and a warrant to purchase an additional share of common for$2.00 at any time prior toJanuary 31, 2022 . During the nine months endedOctober 31, 2019 80,000 units were sold at a price per unit of$1.00 , for offering proceeds of$80,000 . The company allocated proceeds at the estimated fair value of the common shares and warrants for value of$41,353 and$38,647 , respectively. 17
Power Up Convertible Debt Funding
InFebruary 2019 we secured funding through a Securities Purchase Agreement withPower Up Lending Group Ltd. ("Power Up") pursuant to which Power Up purchased a convertible promissory note (the "First Tranche Note") in the face amount of$103,000 . The First Tranche Note matures onFebruary 13, 2020 , and bears interest at 12% per annum, increasing to 22% after maturity. Power Up may convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the First Tranche Note into shares of our common stock beginning on the date which is 180 days from the date of the First Tranche Note, at a price equal to 61% of the lowest trading price during the 20 trading day period ending on the last complete trading date prior to the date of conversion; provided, however, that Power Up may not convert the Note to the extent that such conversion would result in beneficial ownership by Power Up and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock. During the first months of the First Tranche Note we can prepay the note at premiums ranging from 110% to 135%. The First Tranche Note cannot be prepaid after the 180th day following the date thereof. We are required to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the First Tranche Note, six times the number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion thereof, assuming the 4.99% limitation were not in effect. In connection with the First Tranche Note, we have caused our transfer agent to reserve initially 880,969 shares of Common Stock. We received a net amount of$100,000 , with$2,500 paid for Power Up's legal counsel and$500 for Power Up's due diligence fee. OnMarch 18, 2019 , we entered into a second funding arrangement with Power Up under terms identical to the first transaction. The second note (the "Second Tranche Note") is in the face amount of$53,000 and matures onMarch 18, 2020 . In connection with the Second Tranche Note, we caused our transfer agent to reserve initially 613,307 shares of Common Stock. We received a net amount of$50,000 , with$3,000 paid for Power Up's legal and due diligence expenses.
Crown Bridge Partners Convertible Debt Funding
OnMay 1, 2019 we received funding fromCrown Bridge Partners, LLC ("Crown Bridge") under a Securities Purchase Agreement datedApril 18, 2019 (the "SPA"). Under the terms of the SPA, we received a total of$95,000 , after an original issue discount of$5,000 , and issued a convertible promissory note datedApril 18, 2019 , in the principal amount of$100,000 (the "Note"). In addition, we reimbursed Crown Bridge$2,000 for its legal fees. We also issued warrants to purchase 60,606 shares of our common stock (the "Warrant") associated with this transaction. The Warrant may be exercised at any time through the second anniversary date of the Note. The exercise price per share of common stock under the Warrant is$1.65 per share, subject to adjustment, including cashless exercise. The Warrant also contains a most favored nations provision. The maturity date of the Note is 12 months fromApril 18, 2019 . The Note bears interest at 12% per annum at its face amount, with a default rate of 15% per annum (or the maximum amount permitted by law). If we prepay the Note through the 180th day following the date thereof, we must pay all of the principal and interest with a prepayment penalty ranging from 135% to 150%. After the 180th day we have no further right of prepayment. Crown Bridge may, at any time, convert all or any part of the outstanding principal of the Note into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to 60% (representing a 40% discount rate) of the lowest trading price of the common stock during the 20 trading day period ending on the last complete trading day prior to the date of conversion. If the conversion price is equal to or lower than$0.35 per share, an additional 15% discount will be applied (resulting in a 55% discount rate, assuming no other adjustments); if we are unable to deliver converted shares via DWAC, an additional 10% discount will be applied (resulting in a discount rate of 50%, assuming no other adjustments); if we fail to comply with our reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, an additional 15% discount will be applied (resulting in a discount rate of 55%, assuming no other adjustments); and if we fail to maintain our status as "DTC Eligible" or if at any time the conversion price is lower than$0.10 , an additional 10% discount will be applied (resulting in a discount of 65%, assuming no other adjustments except for the 15% discount due to the conversion price below$0.35 ). Crown Bridge may not convert the Note to the extent that such conversion would result in beneficial ownership by Crown Bridge and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of our issued and outstanding common stock. We have also granted piggy-back registration rights for the shares issuable upon conversion of the Note.
Tangiers Global LLC Convertible Debt Funding
OnJune 20, 2019 we entered into a 10% Fixed Convertible Promissory Note withTangiers Global, LLC in the aggregate principal amount of up to$550,000 . The initial principal amount of the Tangiers Note is$165,000 , for which Tangiers paid a purchase price of$150,000 onJune 24, 2019 , representing approximately a 10% original issue discount, due six months from the effective date of each payment by Tangiers. Upon Company request, subject to certain conditions, Tangiers will pay up to an additional$400,000 consideration, subject to a 10% original issue discount, and in such event, the maturity date for the additional payment would be six months from the effective date of such payment. The sum that we must repay to Tangiers would be prorated based on the consideration actually paid by Tangiers, such that we are only required to repay the amount funded (plus the original issue discount, interest and other fees, as applicable), and we are not required to repay any unfunded portion of the Tangiers Note. 18
The Tangiers Note is convertible at the option of Tangiers at a conversion price of$0.65 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of a forward split, stock dividend, or the like, but not adjusted in the event of a reverse split, recombination, or the like. If a prepayment is made within 90 days, we must pay an amount equal to 110% of the principal amount so paid; from 91 to 120 days, we must pay an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount so paid; and from 121 to 180 days, we must pay an amount equal to 130% of the principal amount so paid. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, as such term is defined under the Tangiers Note, at the holder's election, the Note will be immediately due and payable in cash at an amount equal to the principal amount due, plus an additional amount equal to 30% of the principal amount. In addition, five days following acceleration of the repayment of the Note, interest will accrue at the rate of 20% per annum or the maximum legal rate. We have also caused their transfer agent to reserve not less than 7,500,000 shares of our common stock for issuance upon conversion. In the event the Note is not repaid on or before the maturity date, the holder may convert in whole or in part the outstanding principal amount of the Note into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of initial conversion price of$0.65 per share or 60% of the lowest trading price of our common stock during the 15 consecutive trading days prior conversion. For a period of 45 days following the initial funding under the Note, we have agreed not to enter into any convertible debt financing transaction with another party. Further, we have granted a right of first refusal to Tangiers in connection future financings by us so long as the Note is outstanding.

The Warrant also contains a cashless exercise provision and a most favored nations provision. The maturity date of the Note is nine months fromJune 18, 2019 . The Note bears interest at 10% per annum at its face amount, with a default rate of 15% per annum (or the maximum amount permitted by law).

FirstFire may not convert the Note to the extent that such conversion would result in beneficial ownership by FirstFire and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of our issued and outstanding common stock, or up to 9.99% at the option of FirstFire. We have agreed to reserve for issuance the greater of 25,000,000 shares or the number of shares equal to 3.5 times the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note. 19 The debt evidenced by the Note ranks senior to any other debt incurred as of or following the date of the Note.

So long as the Note is outstanding, we cannot enter into any variable rate transaction whereby we issue any securities convertible into shares of its common stock at a price based on trading or quotation prices of our common stock.
Within 60 calendar days following funding, we are required to obtain director and officer insurance for a period of at least 18 months, with two years of tail coverage.

In the event of a default, the Note will be immediately due and payable, and the amount of repayment increases to 150% of the outstanding balance of the Note.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview We have incurred operating losses, accumulated deficit and negative cash flows from operations since inception. As ofOctober 31, 2019 , we had an accumulated deficit of$10,204,683 from operating activities. The Company had total cash on hand of approximately$6,000 as ofOctober 31, 2019 . The Company utilizes credit from vendors, borrowings from related parties, and secured third party financing to manage its cash flow. Management believes the change in focus along with our substantial industry knowledge, defined growth strategy, and minimal expense structure will allow us to ultimately achieve profitability. We have restructured our operating expenses sufficiently and believe that our planned sources of revenue will be sufficient to cover these expenses for the foreseeable future. Our Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and nine months endedOctober 31, 2019 were prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that could be necessary should we be required to liquidate assets. Our ability to continue as a going concern and raise capital for specific strategic initiatives could also depend on obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. We can give no assurances that any additional capital that it is able to obtain, if any, will be sufficient to meet its needs, or that any such financing will be obtainable on acceptable terms.
Our net cash flows are as follows:
