  1 Notes due seller of DigitizeIQ, LLC includes a series of notes as follows:

 

  ● A second non-interest-bearing promissory note made payable to the seller in the amount of $250,000, which was due on January 12, 2016; (Balance at December 31, 2019 and 2018 - $235,000).
     
  ● A third non-interest-bearing promissory note made payable to the seller in the amount of $250,000, which was due on March 12, 2016 and remains unpaid as of December 31, 2019.

 

The Company is renegotiating the terms of the notes. The notes bear interest at 5% per annum when in default (after the due date). The notes were non-interest bearing until due. Accordingly, a debt discount at 5% per annum was calculated for the notes and was amortized to interest expense until the due date of the notes.

 

2 Convertible note payable to River North Equity, LLC (“RNE”) - The Company evaluated the embedded conversion for derivative treatment and recorded an initial derivative liability and debt discount of $23,190. The debt discount is fully amortized. In February 2020, the Company and RNE settled the outstanding debt.

 

The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the notes referred to above that contain a potential variable conversion amount constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the associated debt. The excess of the derivative value over the face amount of the note, if any, is recorded immediately to interest expense at inception. As noted above, the Company reached an agreement with a debt holder to convert outstanding debt and interest into shares of Common Stock. As a result, the Company wrote-off the existing derivative liability of $34,556. In addition, the Company wrote-off outstanding principal balance on the note totaling $32,547.

 

3 Promissory note – The Company evaluated the 100,000 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock granted with the note and recorded a debt discount of $31,200. The debt discount is amortized over the earlier of (i) the term of the debt or (ii) conversion of the debt, using the effective interest method. The amortization of debt discount is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. There was unamortized debt discount of $26,328 as of December 31, 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded amortization of debt discount totaling $4,872.
