Value of Consideration

Article content

The consideration received by 194 was determined based on the following:

Pursuant to the joint venture agreement, Biosenta had agreed that 194 or its shareholders was to be paid at least $4,960,000 throughout the term of the joint venture or upon termination (being an amount equal to three times the initial contribution of 194 and its shareholders). As at March 31, 2023, an additional approximately $1,800,000 was owed to 194 on account of advances to the joint venture. Since such date, 194 has continued to advance to Biosenta $20,000 per month to fund the Company. At times, advances have exceeded $20,000 per month in order to assist with funding of operations (although these amounts were not contractually required to be advanced pursuant to the original joint venture agreement). 194 provided support to Biosenta in achieving certain sustainable patents, which added value to Biosenta by allowing it to continue technological development. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement 194 has agreed, among other things, to release its security over Biosenta’s patents (i) should the Company determine that release or discharge of such security is required in order to enter into any license or similar agreement with a third party in connection with commercialization of any product; or (ii) at any time $3,000,000 of the Note is repaid.
