Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On November 11, 2011, we completed a registered direct offering, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 843 units for a purchase price of $1,000.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds to us of $843,000 (the “Series D Placement”).  Each unit (“Series D Unit”) consisted of (i) one share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series D Convertible Preferred Stock”) convertible into 1,538.46 shares of our common stock, (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization, etc.) and (ii) one five-year warrant to purchase approximately 614 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.81, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrants (“Series D Warrant”).  The Series D Warrants will be exercisable beginning on May 11, 2012 and until the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercise date.

 

We engaged an investment banker to assist with the Series D Placement.  In connection with the Series D Placement, we paid the investment banker a fee of approximately $67,000.

 

The proceeds from the sale of each Series D Unit were allocated between the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series D Warrants based on the residual method.  The estimated fair value of the Series D Warrants was determined using a binomial formula, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $283,725 to the total warrants issued.  The allocation of the gross proceeds to the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock was $559,275.  In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, an additional adjustment between Additional Paid in Capital and Accumulated Deficit of $530,140 was recorded to reflect an implicit non-cash dividend related to the allocation of proceeds between the stock and warrants issued. The $530,140 represents the value of the adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.  The value adjustment was calculated by subtracting the fair market value of the underlying common stock on November 10, 2011 issuable upon conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock from the fair market value of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock as determined when the Company performed a fair market value allocation of the proceeds to the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants.  The warrants are recorded as a liability.

 

The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock, the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock, Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and Series K Convertible Preferred Stock with respect to payments made upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution.  Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment of the Company’s debts and liabilities, and before any payment is made to the holders of any junior securities, the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock are first entitled to be paid $1,000 per share subject to adjustment for accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

We may not pay any dividends on shares of common stock unless we also pay dividends on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock in the same form and amount, on an as-if-converted basis, as dividends actually paid on shares of our common stock.  Except for such dividends, no other dividends may be paid on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 2,500 shares of common stock (based upon a reset conversion price of $0.40 per share) at any time at the option of the holder, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, and similar recapitalization transactions (the “Series D Conversion Ratio”).  Subject to certain exceptions, if the Company issues any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents at a per share price that is lower than the conversion price of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the conversion price will be reduced to the per share price at which such shares of common stock or common stock equivalents are issued.  Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock at the Series D Conversion Ratio then in effect if, after six months from the closing of the Series D Placement, the common stock trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the common stock is then traded) at a price equal to at least 300% of the then effective Series D Convertible Preferred Stock conversion price for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days with each trading day having a volume of at least $50,000.  Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

In addition, in the event we consummate a merger or consolidation with or into another person or other reorganization event in which our shares of common stock are converted or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, or we sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets or we or another person acquire 50% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock, then following such event, the holders of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property which the holders of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock would have received had they converted the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

 

The holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except that the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock may vote separately as a class on any matters that would (i) amend our Restated Articles of Organization, as amended, in a manner that adversely affects the rights of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, (ii) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock or alter or amend the certificate of designation, (iii) authorize or create any class of shares ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon liquidation senior to, or otherwise pari passu with, the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, or (iv) increase the number of authorized shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

If, within 12 months of the initial issuance of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, we issue any common stock, common stock equivalents, indebtedness or any combination thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to participate on a pro-rata basis in up to 50% of such Subsequent Financing.

 

Series D Warrants

 

The Series D Warrants originally had an exercise price equal to $0.81 per share of common stock.  In April 2012, the number of Series D Warrants increased by 530,406 to a total of 1,047,875 and each Series D Warrant had an exercise price reset to $0.40 per share of common stock.  In December of 2013 the number of Series D Warrants increased by 628,733 to a total of 1,676,608 and each Series D Warrant had an exercise price reset to $0.25 per share of common stock. The Series D Warrants will be exercisable beginning on the six month anniversary of the date of issuance and expire five years from the initial exercise date.  The Series D Warrants permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time a registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein, is not available for the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrant, and under certain circumstances at the expiration of the Series D Warrants. The exercise price and/or number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrants are subject to adjustment for certain stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Warrants.  The exercise price is also subject to adjustment in the event that we issue any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents at a per share price that is lower than the exercise price for the Series D Warrants then in effect.  Upon any such issuance, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price will be reduced to the per share price at which such shares of common stock or common stock equivalents are issued and number of Series D Warrant shares issuable thereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to such adjustment.  Unless waived under certain circumstance by the holder of a Series D Warrant, such holder may not exercise the Series D Warrant if upon such exercise the holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock would exceed certain thresholds.

 

In the event we consummate a merger or consolidation with or into another person or other reorganization event in which our shares of common stock are converted or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, or we sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets or we or another person acquire 50% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock, then following such event, the holders of the Series D Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Series D Warrants the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property which the holders would have received had they exercised the Series D Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

 

Series D Warrants to purchase 350,000, 100,000 and 146,658 shares of common stock were exercised on March 20, March 26 and April 3, 2014, respectively, at an exercise price of $0.25 per share resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $149,164.

 

Series G Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On July 6 and November 15, 2012, we completed a private placement, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 145,320 units for a purchase price of $5.00 per unit (the “Series G Purchase Price”), resulting in gross proceeds to us of $726,600 (the “Series G Private Placement”). Each unit (“Series G Unit”) consists of (i) one share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock”) convertible into 10 shares of our common stock, (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization, etc.) and (ii) a three-year warrant to purchase 5 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.50 (the “Series G Warrant”). The Series G Warrants will be exercisable until the close of business on the third anniversary of the applicable closing date of the Series G Private Placement. Of the $726,600 invested in the Series G Private Placement, $31,100 was received in cash and $695,500 was from the conversion of outstanding indebtedness and accrued board of directors’ fees.

 

Each share of Series G Preferred Stock will receive a cumulative dividend at the annual rate of (i) four percent (4%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of less than $100,000, (ii) six percent (6%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of at least $100,000 but less than $250,000, and (iii) twelve percent (12%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of at least $250,000. Dividends accruing on the Series G Preferred Stock shall accrue from day to day until, and shall be paid within fifteen (15) days of, the first anniversary of, the original issue date of the Series G Preferred Stock; provided, however, if any shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock are outstanding at such time, payment of the accrued dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock shall be deferred until no such shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding. The Company may pay accrued dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock in cash or in shares of its common stock equal to the volume weighted average price of the common stock as reported by the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the common stock is then traded)  for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the Series G’s first anniversary.

 

At the election of the Company and upon required advanced notice, each share of Series G Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of  common stock at the Conversion Ratio then in effect: (i) if, after 6 months from the original issuance date of the Series G Preferred Stock, the  common stock trades on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the  common stock is then traded) at a price equal to at least $0.75, for 7 out of 10 consecutive trading days with average daily trading volume of at least 10,000 shares, (ii) on or after the first anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series G Preferred Stock or (iii) upon completion of a firm-commitment underwritten registered public offering by the Company at a per share price equal to at least $0.75, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $2.5 million. Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series G Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series G Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

The holders of Series G Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except as required by law.

 

On April 1, 2014 the Company issued 733,169 shares of common stock for the conversion of 58,750 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock and $58,267 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

Series G Warrants

 

The Series G Warrants issued in the Series G Private Placement have an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share, with a term expiring on July 6, 2015. The Series G Warrants also permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time the holder of the Series G Warrant is an affiliate of the Company. The exercise price and/or number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Series G Warrants.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Series G Warrants, at any time commencing six months from the closing date the Company has the right to call for cancellation of the Series G Warrants if the volume weighted average price of its  common stock on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which our  common stock is then traded) equals or exceeds three times the per share exercise price of the Warrants for either (i) 10 consecutive trading days or (ii) 15 out of 25 consecutive trading days.

 

In connection with our sale of Series G Units, we agreed that for each share of Series G Preferred Stock purchased by an investor, the exercise price of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock, previously issued to the investor in prior offerings by the Company to purchase common stock of the Company held of record by such investor, shall be reduced to $0.60 per share and will remain at such reduced exercise price until the expiration date of the warrants.

 

In connection with the sale of Series G Units, we treated the reduction in exercise price as a warrant amendment and calculated the fair value of 1,495,022 warrants with the reduced exercise price of $0.60, as described above, using the Black-Scholes model with the below assumptions. The Company has determined that the fair value of the amended warrants increased as compared with the fair value of the original warrants immediately prior to amendment.

 

In connection with the warrant modification, we calculated the fair value of the warrants, as described above, using a Black-Scholes model with the below assumptions:

 

Assumptions   Series A     Series A     Series B     Series C     Aug/Sep 2011     Feb 2012  
          (Affiliates)                 Notes     PIPE  
Contractual life, in years     4.1       3.1       3.1       5.1       2.1       4.6  
Expected volatility     132.0 %     114.1 %     114.1 %     121.9 %     126.6 %     126.6 %
Risk-free interest rate     0.4 %     0.4 %     0.4 %     0.4 %     0.4 %     0.4 %
Exercise price   $ 0.60     $ 0.60     $ 0.60     $ 0.60     $ 0.60     $ 0.60  
Fair value per warrant   $ 0.03     $ 0.03     $ 0.03     $ 0.03     $ 0.03     $ 0.03  

 

We recorded an increased incremental value of $5,347 for the warrant amendment and treated the excess of fair value of the warrants as a deemed dividend.

 

Series H Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On December 28, 2012 the Company amended its Articles of Organization to authorize 10,000 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock.  On January 4, 2013, the Company reported that it had entered into a securities purchase and exchange agreement with an investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to exchange an aggregate of 10,000 shares of a newly created series of preferred stock, designated Series H Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) for 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share of common stock held by the investor in a non-cash transaction. The investor originally purchased the common stock from the Company for $0.8025 per share.  The exchange ratio was 100 shares of common stock per share of Series H Preferred Stock at a stated conversion price of $0.8025 per share. The terms of the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock are set forth in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 4, 2013.

 

Series J Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On February 6,  March 28 and May 20, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase with various individuals pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 5,087.5 units for a purchase price of $400.00 per unit (the “Purchase Price”), or an aggregate Purchase Price of $2,034,700.  Each unit purchased in the initial tranche consists of (i) one share of a newly created series of preferred stock, designated Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series J Convertible Preferred Stock”), convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share and (ii) a warrant to purchase 1,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.40 per share. The warrants expire three years from the issuance date. Of the $2,034,700 invested in the Private Placement, $921,000 was received in cash and $1,113,700 was from the conversion of outstanding indebtedness, interest and accrued board of directors’ fees.  The Company incurred $24,405 of legal fees in conjunction with this private placement. The purchasers in the initial tranche of the private placement consisted of certain existing and new investors in the Company as well as all of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

From the date of issuance of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and until the earlier of the first anniversary of such date, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, dividends will accrue on each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock at an annual rate of (i) four percent (4%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased from the Company shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate Purchase Price of less than $250,000, and (ii) six percent (6%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate purchase price of at least $250,000.  Dividends accruing on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock shall accrue from day to day until the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of issuance of such shares of Series J Convertible Stock, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, and shall be paid, as applicable, within fifteen (15) days of the first anniversary of the original issue date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, within five (5) days of the voluntary conversion of shares of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or within five (5) days of the mandatory conversion of shares of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company may pay accrued dividends on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, in shares of its common stock in accordance with a specified formula.

 

Each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock at the option of the holder on or after the six-month anniversary of the issuance of such share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar transactions (the “Conversion Ratio”). Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

At the election of the Company and upon required advance notice, each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock at the Conversion Ratio then in effect:  (i) on or after the six-month anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, the common stock trades on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the common stock is then traded) at a price per share equal to at least $0.80 for 7 out of 10 consecutive trading days with average daily trading volume of at least 50,000 shares, (ii) on the first anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock or (iii) within three days of the completion of a firm-commitment underwritten registered public offering by the Company at a per share price equal to at least $0.80, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $2.5 million.  Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series J Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

The proceeds from the sale of each Series J Unit were allocated between the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series J Warrants based on the relative fair value method.  The estimated fair value of the Series J Warrants was determined using a Black Scholes formula, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $885,310 to the total warrants issued.  The allocation of the gross proceeds to the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock was $1,124,985, net of $24,405 in legal costs.  In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, an additional adjustment between Additional Paid in Capital and Accumulated Deficit of $651,182 was recorded to reflect an implicit non-cash dividend related to the allocation of proceeds between the stock and warrants issued. The $651,182 represents the value of the adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock.  The value adjustment was calculated by subtracting the fair market value of the underlying common stock on February 6, March 28 and May 20, 2013 issuable upon conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock from the fair market value of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock as determined when the Company performed a fair market value allocation of the proceeds to the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants.

 

In connection with the Series J warrants, we calculated the fair value of the warrants received as described above using the Black- Scholes formula with the below assumptions:

 

Assumptions   Series J warrants February 6, 2013     Series J warrants March 28, 2013     Series J warrants May 20, 2013  
Contractual life (in months)     36       36       36  
Expected volatility     141.8       144.3       147.0  
Risk-free interest rate     0.39 %     0.36 %     0.36 %
Exercise price   $ 0.40     $ 0.40     $ 0.40  
Fair value per warrant   $ 0.36     $ 0.26     $ 0.30  

 

 

The holders of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except as required by law.

On July 14, 2014 the Company issued 1,516,966 shares of common stock for the conversion of 1,449 shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and $24,648 in accrued and unpaid dividends.

 

Series J Warrants

 

The Warrants issued in the Private Placement have an exercise price equal to $0.40 per share, with a term expiring three years from the issuance date.  The Warrants also permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time the holder of the Warrant is an affiliate of the Company.  The exercise price and/or number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Warrant agreement.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrants, at any time commencing six months from the closing date of the sale of Units under the Securities Purchase Agreement the Company has the right to call the Warrants for cancellation if the volume weighted average price of its common stock on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the common stock is then traded) equals or exceeds three times the per share exercise price of the Warrants for either (i) 10 consecutive trading days or (ii) 15 out of 25 consecutive trading days.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has agreed that, if, at any time after February 1, 2014, the Company files a Registration Statement relating to an offering of equity securities of the Company (the “Registration Statement”), subject to certain exceptions, including a Registration Statement relating solely to an offering or sale of securities having an aggregate public offering price of less than $5,000,000, the Company shall include in the Registration Statement the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants.  Shares of common stock issued upon conversion of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock or in payment of the dividend on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock will not be registered and will not be subject to registration rights.  This right is subject to customary conditions and procedures.

From the date of issuance of any shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock and until the earlier of the first anniversary of such date, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, dividends will accrue on each share of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock at an annual rate of (i) four percent (4%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased from the Company shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate Purchase Price of less than $100,000, and (ii) six percent (6%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate purchase price of at least $100,000.  Dividends accruing on the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock shall accrue from day to day until the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of issuance of such shares of Series K Convertible Stock, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, and shall be paid, as applicable, within fifteen (15) days of the first anniversary of the original issue date of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, within five (5) days of the voluntary conversion of shares of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, or within five (5) days of the mandatory conversion of shares of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company may pay accrued dividends on the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, in shares of its common stock in accordance with a specified formula.

 

Each share of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock at the option of the holder on or after the six-month anniversary of the issuance of such share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar transactions (the “Conversion Ratio”). Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s shares of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

At the election of the Company and upon required advance notice, each share of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock at the Conversion Ratio then in effect:  (i) on or after the six-month anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, the common stock trades on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the common stock is then traded) at a price per share equal to at least $0.80 for 7 out of 10 consecutive trading days with average daily trading volume of at least 50,000 shares, (ii) on the first anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock or (iii) within three days of the completion of a firm-commitment underwritten registered public offering by the Company at a per share price equal to at least $0.80, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $2.5 million.  Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series K Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

 

The proceeds from the sale of each Series K Unit were allocated between the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series K Warrants based on the relative fair value method.  The estimated fair value of the Series K Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes formula, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $271,422 to the total warrants issued.  The allocation of the gross proceeds to the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock was $685,245, net of $43,334 in fees.  In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, an additional adjustment between Additional Paid in Capital and Accumulated Deficit of $351,421 was recorded to reflect an implicit non-cash dividend related to the allocation of proceeds between the stock and warrants issued. The $351,421 represents the value of the adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock.  The value adjustment was calculated by subtracting the fair market value of the underlying common stock on December 12, 2013 issuable upon conversion of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock from the fair market value of the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock as determined when the Company performed a fair market value allocation of the proceeds to the Series K Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants.

Promissory Note

 

On November 4, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with a former placement agent, pursuant to which the Company and the placement agent released each other of their respective obligations under a prior investment banking agreement.  In connection with this agreement, the Company issued the placement agent a promissory note with an original principal amount of $150,000 and a maturity date of May 4, 2012.  The promissory note was interest free until May 4, 2012.  On November 15, 2012, $75,000 of principal and $16,125 of accrued and unpaid interest were converted into 18,225 shares of the Company’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock.

The $75,000 note balance along with all accrued and unpaid interest of $14,832, was paid off in February 2014.

 

Convertible Debt

 

On April 11, 2013, we signed a promissory note in the amount of $275,000.  The initial loan taken by the Company against the note was for $125,000, net of a $12,500 original issue discount.  The lender lent the Company an additional $50,000, net of $5,000 original issue discount, on June 26, 2013. The balance of the note was to be paid in the amounts and on the dates of the lender’s choosing. The note and unpaid interest on the note are due and payable one year from the effective date of each payment.  The Company has the right to repay the notes at any time within six months of the effective date of each closing.  If the Company repays the note within 90 days of the effective date, interest is 0%.  If the note is not repaid within the 90 days, a onetime interest charge of 12% will be applied. The Company has reserved at least 6,000,000 shares of common stock for conversion under this note.  The Company evaluated the terms of this note in accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock. The lender has the right to convert all or part of the unpaid principal and interest into common stock at a conversion price of 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days prior to conversion after six months from the effective date of each closing. The Company determined that the conversion feature met the definition of a liability and therefore, bifurcated the conversion feature as a derivative liability. The derivative liability is measured at the end of each reporting period and the change in fair value is recorded as other expense or income in the statement of operations. The fair value of the conversion feature was $186,041 at December 31, 2013 and reflected in the conversion option liability line in the consolidated balance sheet. On October 10, 2013, this note was amended to change the lenders right to convert and the borrower’s right to repay to December 10, 2013. On December 10, 2013, this note was amended to change the lenders right to convert and the borrower’s right to repay to February 10, 2014.

 

The proceeds from the convertible debt issued on April 11, 2013, were allocated between the host debt instrument and the convertible option based on the residual method.  The estimated fair value of the convertible option was determined using a binomial formula, resulting in an allocation of $274,840 to the convertible option and accounted for as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815-40, the entire gross proceeds of $137,500 was offset by a debt discount of $137,500 which will be amortized to interest expense over the twelve month life of the debt. The additional $149,840 adjustment between the convertible option liability and the debt discount was charged directly to other expense.

 

The proceeds from the convertible debt issued on June 26, 2013, were allocated between the host debt instrument and the convertible option based on the residual method.  The estimated fair value of the convertible option was determined using a binomial formula, resulting in an allocation of $84,146 to the convertible option and accounted for as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815-40, the entire gross proceeds of $55,000 was offset by a debt discount of $55,000 which will be amortized to interest expense over the twelve month life of the debt. The additional $34,146 adjustment between the convertible option liability and the debt discount was charged directly to other expense.

 

So long as the note is outstanding, the Company shall notify the lender of the issuance of any security with a term more favorable to the holder, and the lender may at its option, include the terms as a part of the transaction documents.

 

On February 10, 2014 the lender, with the prior approval of the Company, chose to convert $37,500 of the outstanding note balance to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; the remaining note balance of $203,100 was repaid in cash. The $199,507 fair value of the outstanding conversion option liability associated with these notes was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

 

On December 4, 2013, we signed a convertible debenture in the amount of $223,000.  The lender paid an initial payment of $200,000 net of an “original issue” discount of $20,000 and $3,000 in legal fees, on the closing date.  The lender has the right at any time from the issue date to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid principal into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.40 per share subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings.  The Company has the right to prepay the debenture for a payment of 120% of the outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest.  The Company is required to reserve at least 4 times the number of shares actually issuable upon full conversion of this debenture.  The Company determined that the conversion feature met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC 815-40, since the conversion price was subject to change the conversion shares were indeterminable and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature as a derivative liability. The derivative liability is measured at the end of each reporting period and the difference in fair value is recorded as other expense or income in the statement of operations.  The fair value of the conversion feature was $98,129 at December 31, 2013 and reflected in the conversion option liability line in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition the lender received a warrant to purchase 70,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.3125 per share.  The warrants were valued at $11,100 which was allocated to debt discount and will be amortized to interest expense over the twenty-four month life of the debt.

 

The proceeds from the convertible debt issued on December 4, 2013, were allocated between the host debt instrument and the convertible option based on the residual method.  The estimated fair value of the convertible option was determined using a binomial formula, resulting in an allocation of $90,444 to the convertible option and accounted for as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815-40, the gross proceeds of $223,000 was offset by a debt discount of $111,488 which will be amortized to interest expense over the twelve month life of the debt. On June 3, 2014 the lender agreed to extend the conversion date of the loan to August 4, 2014 and received a $10,000 fee which will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining months of the loan. On July 31, 2014 the lender agreed to extend the conversion date of the loan to October 4, 2014 and received $12,000 in fees that will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining months of the loan. On October 2, 2014 the loan was extended to December 4, 2014. The Company incurred a fee of $24,000 which will be paid for with 60,000 shares of Company common stock and amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the loan.

 

On December 23, 2013, we signed a convertible debenture in the amount of $150,000.  The lender paid an initial payment of $125,000 net of an “original issue” discount of $15,000 and $10,000 in fees, on the closing date.  The lender has the right, any time from the issue date, to convert any or part of the outstanding and unpaid principal into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.40 per share subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings.  The Company shall have the right to prepay the debenture for a payment of 120% of the outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest.  The Company is required to reserve at least 3 times the number of shares actually issuable upon full conversion of this debenture.  The Company determined that the conversion feature met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC 815-40, since the conversion price was subject to change the conversion shares were indeterminable,   and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature as a derivative liability. The derivative liability is measured at the end of each reporting period and the change in fair value is recorded as other expense or income in the statement of operations.  The fair value of the conversion feature was $72,027 at December 31, 2013 and reflected in the conversion option liability line in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition the lender received 75,000 shares of Company restricted common stock, of which the fair value of $17,250 was charged to debt discount and will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt.
