Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as
"anticipate",
"believe",
"estimate",
"expect",
"intend" and similar expressions, as they relate to
the company or its management, identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about
the company's business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and probably will, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted
in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and
the Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this release. Information on the Acacia or MariJ Pharmaceuticals
websites does not constitute a part of this Current Report.
Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
During calendar year 2017, Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. (
“Acacia” or the
“Company”), borrowed funds on three separate occasions from our Chief Executive Officer,
Richard K. Pertile, with such funds being utilized for, among other things, working capital. The total principal amount of these secured loans was $535,050.00, with interest accruing at 8% per annum (the
“Indebtedness”).
The Company has asked Mr. Pertile to forbear from demanding payment of the Indebtedness and to consolidate principal monies due to him from the three loans, accrued interest and the related expenses into one Consolidated Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $558,400.00, which will be due and payable on the earlier of demand or first from any capital money raised for
the Company and which would bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum.
On
September 25, 2017 the Company and Mr. Pertile entered into a Consolidated Loan Agreement which consolidated the principal, accrued interest and related expenses from the earlier three loans. The principal amount of the loan (the
“Loan”) is $558,400.00, as reflected in the Consolidated Promissory Note (the
“Note”). The Note bears interest at 8% per annum. The Loan is secured by all of the tangible and intangible assets of
the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. Copies of the Consolidated Loan Agreement, the Consolidated Promissory Note and the Security Agreements are attached to this Current Report as exhibits.
