May 2, 2017 Amendment to October 2016 Note

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on October 28, 2016, an accredited investor (the “Investor”) purchased from Pressure BioSciences Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”) a Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000 (the “October Note”) due and payable on the earlier of October 28, 2017 (the “October Maturity Date”) or on the seventh business day after the closing of a Qualified Offering (as defined in the October Note). On May 2, 2017, the Company and the Investor entered into Amendment Number 1 to the October Note (the “Amendment”) to, among other provisions, increase the October Note’s aggregate principal amount to up to $3,000,000. As consideration for this Amendment, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock to the Investor (less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s shares of common stock outstanding as of May 2, 2017). The October Maturity Date remains the same. Garden State Securities, Inc. is acting as Placement Agent for this transaction and is being paid eight percent (8%) of all principal amounts advanced pursuant to this transaction.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Amendment. A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

May 22, 2017 Note

 

On May 22, 2017, the Investor purchased from the Company a Promissory Note in the principal amount of $630,000 (the “May Note”), due and payable on July 3, 2017 (the “July Maturity Date”). Although the Note is dated May 19, 2017, the transaction did not close until May 22, 2017, when the Company received the $630,000 pursuant to the Note. On the July Maturity Date, in addition to paying the principal amount in full, the Company will pay a guaranteed amount of interest of $63,000 along with an origination fee of $32,000. Garden State Securities, Inc. acted as Placement Agent for this transaction and was paid a five percent (5%) commission of the principal amount advanced pursuant to this transaction.

 

The foregoing description of the May Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the May Note. A copy of the May Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
