Asset Purchase Agreement with VBF Brands, Inc. On October 6, 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Salinas Diversified Ventures, Inc., a California corporation, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, Management Services Agreement, Cooperation Agreement and Employment Agreement with VBF Brands, Inc., a California corporation (“VBF”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunset Island Group, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“SIGO”). VBF and SIGO agreed to transfer to the Company all of VBF’s outstanding stock to the Company, and appointed our CEO and CFO Jesus Quintero as President of VBF.
VBF owns various fixed assets including machinery and equipment, a lease for a 10,000 square foot facility located at 20420 Spence Road, Salinas, California, 93908, leasehold improvements, good-will, inventory, tradenames including “VBF Brands,” trade secrets, intellectual property, and other tangible and intangible properties, including licenses issued by the City of Salinas, County of Monterey, and the State of California to operate a licensed cannabis nursery, cultivation facility, and operations for the manufacturing and distribution of cannabis and cannabis products.
VBF and SIGO agreed to sell and transfer to the Company all of VBF’s outstanding stock, and, by virtue of the Management Services Agreement, appoint Mr. Jesus Quintero as President of VBF, vesting management and control of VBF’s licensed cannabis operations in the Company. Concurrently, VBF and Livacich entered into a Cooperation Agreement, whereby VBF and Livacich agreed to cooperate to facilitate the transfer of ownership of VBF, which includes licenses issued by the City of Salinas, County of Monterey, and the State of California, to operate a cannabis nursery, cultivation facility and manufacturing and distribution operations to the Company. The Company also agreed to retain Livacich as Chief Executive Officer for a term of two years and agreed to compensate her with a salary including a signing cash bonus of $250,000, and a $250,000 performance cash bonus payable after six months after the Effective Date. The bonus is conditioned upon Livacich meeting an agreed to “Net Revenue” target of one million dollars ($1,000,000) from VBF’s operations during the six-month period after closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement, and her compliance with the terms and conditions of this Asset Purchase Agreement, the Management Services Agreement and the Cooperation Agreement.
As consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to assume two secured convertible promissory notes issued by SIGO to St. George Investments, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“St. George”) (the “SIGO Notes”). The first note was issued December 8, 2017, in the original face amount of $170,000.00, and the second was issued February 13, 2018, in the original face amount of $4,245,000.00. SIGO also issued warrants to St. George to purchase common shares in SIGO, and fifty (50) shares of SIGO’s preferred stock. St. George agreed to cancel the warrants and preferred shares upon the Company’s assumption of the SIGO Notes.
Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the closing is conditioned upon certain conditions precedent, specifically (i) VBF and SIGO’s full corporate authorization, consent and execution of this Agreement; (ii) VBF’s sale to MCOA of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of VBF; (iii) full corporate authorization, consent compliance with and execution of the Management Services Agreement and Cooperation Agreement; (iv) SIGO’s disclosure of the Agreement on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission; (v) full cooperation in MCOA’s financial auditing of VBF in accordance with ASC 805, including providing unrestricted access to all VBF corporate and financial records and providing all necessary cooperation with VBF financial personnel; (vi) full cooperation in aiding and assisting Buyer with its change of ownership applications with the relevant licensing authorities; (vii) the warranty of truthful representations and execution of and compliance with the terms and conditions of the Executive Employment Agreement, Management Services Agreement and the Cooperation Agreement.
As of the date of this filing, the conditions precedent to the closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement remain in the process of implementation, so that the Asset Purchase Agreement closing has not yet occurred pursuant to its terms. Legal counsel for MCOA is currently in the process of working with VBF, Salinas Diversified Ventures, and the relevant state and local governments to effect the change of control and license transfers necessary to close the Asset Purchase Agreement.
