NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Sanford Lang, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, advanced STCB $289,821 to pay for general operating expenses. The advance required a monthly interest payment of $2,545 and was due on demand. In June 2021, Mr. Lang and Mr. Goldrod executed agreements with STCB whereby the advance from Mr. Lang and all other amounts owed to each were repaid and both Mr. Lang and Mr. Goldrod resigned from the Board of Directors. Further, for a period of 36 months beginning in July 2021, STCB will repurchase an aggregate of $10,950 worth of shares each month from Mr. Lang and Mr. Goldrod, with the share price for each purchase to be set according to the volume weighted average trading price of the common stock over the last 10 days of the month. In the three months ended March 31, 2022 STCB paid an aggregate of $32,850 to Mr. Lang and Mr. Goldrod per the agreements and anticipates that the corresponding share transfers will be settled in 2022.

 

As of March 31, 2022, the Company owed TSG $72,843 for expenses paid by TSG on behalf of STCB for expenses to launch licensed brands. As royalties have exceeded $250,000 in the aggregate, once the Company has an adequate cash reserve, TSG may deduct the incurred expenses from the subsequent royalty payments until TSG is paid in full. In addition, STCB owes TSG and its subsidiaries an additional $203,539 for expenses paid on behalf of STCB or funds advanced to the Company to pay for other operating expenses. TSG is owned by STCB's CEO, Ross Sklar.

 

On January 24, 2020, STCB executed a promissory note for $100,000 with Ross Sklar, CEO. The note bears interest at 4% per annum, compounds monthly, is unsecured, and matures two years from the original date of issuance. On June 28, 2021, STCB executed an additional promissory note with Ross Sklar in the principal amount of $100,000 with the same terms as the January 24, 2020 note and a maturity date of June 28, 2023. On September 17, 2021, STCB executed a third promissory note with Ross Sklar in the principal amount of $500,000 with the same terms as the prior notes and a maturity date of September 17, 2023. On December 13, 2021, STCB executed a fourth promissory note with Ross Sklar in the principal amount of $500,000 with the same terms as the prior notes and a maturity date of December 12, 2023. On February 14, 2022, STCB executed a fifth promissory note in favor of Ross Sklar, CEO, in the principal sum of $472,500, in exchange for a cash advance in the amount of $300,000 and payment of Company costs in the amount of $172,500. As with the other notes between the Company and our CEO, the note bears interest at 4% per annum, is unsecured, and matures two years from the original date of issuance. This note may also convert into shares of Company common stock at the 10-day volume weighted average trading price of the Company common stock for the 10-day period prior to the issuance of the Note, which was calculated as $0.29 per share. As of March 31, 2022, there was $6,086 of accrued interest due on these notes.
