Schedule 13D
CUSIP No. 043635507 Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc.
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This Schedule 13D is filed with respect to shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter “Ascent” or the “Company”). The Company’s principal executive office is located at 12300 Grant Street, Thornton, Colorado 80241.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
(a), (b) and (c). This Schedule 13D is being filed by Jason Widjaja (“Widjaja”), whose residence address is 7, Chwee Chian Road, Singapore 119749. The principal occupation of Widjaja is a self-employed investor.
(d) and (e). Widjaja has not, during the last five years, been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of a competent jurisdiction as a result of which he was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
(f). Widjaja is a citizen of Singapore.
Item 3. Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On January 11, 2019, Widjaja purchased from the Company a $330,000 Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”). The Note will mature on January 11, 2020. Principal and interest on the Note will be payable in a lump sum on January 11, 2020. The Note will bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum.
The holder of the Note shall have the option to convert all or a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Note into shares of the Company's Common Stock. Conversions into Common Stock shall be calculated using a variable conversion price equal to 80% of the lowest closing bid price for the shares over the prior five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Conversion Date. At no time, however, may the Note be converted if the number of shares of Common Stock to be received pursuant to such conversion, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially (or deemed beneficially) owned by the reporting person, would result in the reporting person beneficially owning more than 19.99% of all Common Stock outstanding.
The reporting person has not converted any portion of the Note and does not own any other shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Due to the ownership conversion limitation on the conversion feature of the Note, the reporting person may be deemed to own 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. The number of shares deemed to be beneficially owned has been calculated on the basis of 98,789,525 shares outstanding as of January 23, 2019.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
As of the date of this statement and except as set forth within this statement, the reporting person has no plans or proposals that would result in any of the matters set forth within (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
