ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On March 7, 2022, American Bio Medica Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Financial Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Landmark Pegasus, Inc. (‘Landmark”). The Agreement provides that Landmark will provide certain financial advisory services for a minimum period of 3 months (which period commenced on February 28, 2022), and as consideration for these services, the Company will pay Landmark (a) a retainer fee consisting of 500,000 restricted shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase 2.75 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a strike price equal to the average closing price of the Company’s common shares for the 30 days preceding the Agreement, or $0.035 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $96,250.00. The warrant will vest upon the closing of a transaction involving Landmark or upon the invocation of a “Breakup Fee”.

 

The Breakup Fee will be invoked upon the generation of a specific transaction to ABMC which meets certain criteria agreed upon by both the Company and Landmark; which transaction is then rejected by the Company. The Company will also pay to Landmark a “Success Fee” for the consummation of a transaction closing during the term of the Agreement and for 12 months thereafter, between the Company and any party first introduced to the Company by Landmark, or with any party the Company has specifically requested Landmark’s assistance with the transaction.

 

Upon invocation of the Breakup Fee or payment of the Success Fee, the Company will also issue an additional 250,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In the event that the Company consummates a transaction involving the provision of services to any party introduced to the Company by Landmark or with any party the Company has specifically requested Landmark’s assistance with, the Company will pay Landmark 10% of any revenues received from the transaction, unless this percentage is modified by both the Company and Landmark in writing.

 

There is no material relationship between the Company and Landmark, other than with respect to the Agreement.
