On July 27, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series F Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. On December 19, 2013 the Certificate of Designations was amended. A summary of the Certificate of Designations, as amended, is set forth below: |
|
Dividends and Other Distributions. Commencing on the date of issuance of any such shares of Series F Preferred Stock, holders of Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on each outstanding share of Series F Preferred Stock, which accrue in shares of Series F Preferred Stock at a rate equal to 7.65% per annum from the date of issuance. Accrued dividends are payable upon redemption of the Series F Preferred Stock. |
|
Redemption. The Company may redeem the Series F Preferred Stock, for cash or by an offset against any outstanding note payable from Ironridge Global to the Company that Ironridge Global issued, as follows. The Company may redeem any or all of the Series F Preferred Stock at any time after the seventh anniversary of the issuance date at the redemption price per share equal to $1,000 per share of Series F Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends with respect to such shares of Series F Preferred Stock (the “Series F Liquidation Value”). Prior to the seventh anniversary of the issuance of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Company may redeem the shares at any time after six months from the issuance date at a make-whole price per share equal to the following with respect to such redeemed Series F Preferred Stock: (i) 149.99% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed prior to the first anniversary of the issuance date, (ii) 141.6% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the first anniversary but prior to the second anniversary of the issuance date, (iii) 133.6% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary of the issuance date, (iv) 126.1% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance date, (v) 119.0% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the fourth anniversary but prior to the fifth anniversary of the issuance date, (vi) 112.3% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the fifth anniversary but prior to the sixth anniversary of the issuance date, and (vii) 106.0% of the Series F Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the sixth anniversary but prior to the seventh anniversary of the issuance date. |
|
In addition, if the Company determines to liquidate, dissolve or wind-up its business, or engage in any deemed liquidation event, it must redeem the Series F Preferred Stock at the applicable early redemption price set forth above. |
|
Conversion. The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the applicable Ironridge Entities option or at the Company’s option at any time after six months from the date of issuance of the Series F Preferred Stock. The fixed conversion price is equal to $0.50 per share which represented a premium of 32% over the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately before the date the Company announced the entry into the Series F Agreement (the “Series F Conversion Price”). |
|
If the Company or Ironridge elects to convert the Series F Preferred Stock into common stock and the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 150% of the Series F Conversion Price for any 20 consecutive trading days, the Company will issue that number of shares of its common stock equal to the early redemption price set forth above multiplied by the number of shares subject to conversion, divided by the Series F Conversion Price. If the Company elects to convert the Series F Preferred Stock into common stock and the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is less than 150% of the Series F Conversion Price, the Company will issue an initial number of shares of its common stock equal to 130% of the early redemption price set forth above multiplied by the number of shares subject to conversion, divided by the lower of (i) the Series F Conversion Price and (ii) 100% of the closing bid price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately before the date of the conversion notice. |
|
After 20 trading days, the Ironridge Entity shall return, or the Company shall issue, a number of conversion shares (the “Series F Reconciling Conversion Shares”), so that the total number of conversion shares under the conversion notice equals the early redemption price set forth above multiplied by the number of shares of subject to conversion, divided by the lower of (i) the Series F Conversion Price and (ii) 85% of the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of the Company’s common stock for the lowest three is the twenty trading days following the Ironridge Entity’s receipt of the conversion notice. However, if the trading price of the Company’s common stock during any one or more of the 20 trading days following the Ironridge Entity’s receipt of the conversion notice falls below 70% of the closing bid price on the day prior to the date the Company gives notice of its intent to convert, the Ironridge Entity will return the Series F Reconciling Conversion Shares to the Company and the pro rata amount of the conversion notice will be deemed canceled. |
|
The Company cannot issue any shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock if it would result in an Ironridge Entity being deemed to beneficially own, within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, more than 9.99% of the total shares of common stock then outstanding. Furthermore, until stockholder approval is obtained or the holder obtains an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel that such approval is not required, both the holder and the Company are prohibited from delivering a conversion notice if, as a result of such exercise, the aggregate number of shares of common stock to be issued, when aggregated with any common stock issued to holder or any affiliate of holder under any other agreements or arrangements between the Company and the holder or any applicable affiliate of the holder, such aggregate number would, under NASDAQ Marketplace rules (or the rules of any other exchange where the common stock is listed), exceed the Cap Amount (meaning 19.99% of the common stock outstanding on the date of the Series F Agreement). If delivery of a conversion notice is prohibited by the preceding sentence because the Cap Amount would be exceeded, the Company must, upon the written request of the holder, hold a meeting of its stockholders within sixty (60) days following such request, and use its best efforts to obtain the approval of its stockholders for the transactions described herein. |
|
Due to the above variations in the conversion price, the beneficial conversion feature is considered contingent and not measurable or recorded until the actual conversion dates. The beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a constructive dividend and was $480,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. |

Debenture Financing |
|
Effective as of January 16, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “TCA Purchase Agreement”) with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“TCA”), pursuant to which TCA may purchase from the Company up to $5,000,000 senior secured, convertible only upon default, redeemable debentures (the “Debentures”). A $550,000 Debenture was purchased by TCA on January 16, 2013 (the “First Debenture”). |
|
The maturity date of the First Debenture was January 16, 2014, subject to adjustment (the “Maturity Date”). The First Debenture bears interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum. The Company additionally pays a 7% premium on all scheduled principal payments. The Company, at its option, may repay the principal, interest, fees and expenses due under the Debenture, including a 7% redemption premium on the outstanding principal balance, and in full and for cash, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, with three (3) business days advance written notice to the holder. At any time while the Debenture is outstanding, but only upon the occurrence of an event of default under the TCA Purchase Agreement or any other transaction documents, the holder may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, redemption premium and any other sums due and payable under the First Debenture or any other transaction document (such total amount, the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to (i) the Conversion Amount divided by (ii) eighty-five (85%) of the average daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion. The Debenture also contains a provision whereby TCA may not own more than 4.99% of the Company’s common stock at any one time. |
|
As consideration for entering into the TCA Purchase Agreement, the Company paid to TCA (i) a transaction advisory fee in the amount of $22,000, (ii) a due diligence fee equal to $10,000, and (iii) document review and legal fees in the amount of $12,500. |
|
As further consideration, the Company agreed to issue to TCA that number of shares of the Company’s common stock that equals $100,000 (the “Incentive Shares”). For purposes of determining the number of Incentive Shares issuable to TCA, the Company’s common stock was valued at the volume weighted average price for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the date of the TCA Purchase Agreement, as reported by Bloomberg, and 191,388 shares were issued. It is the intention of the Company and TCA that the value of the Incentive Shares shall equal $100,000. In the event the value of the Incentive Shares issued to TCA does not equal $100,000 after a twelve month evaluation date, the TCA Purchase Agreement provides for an adjustment provision allowing for necessary action (either the issuance of additional shares to TCA or the return of shares previously issued to TCA to the Company’s treasury). At the end of the twelve month evaluation date on January 16, 2014, the value of the incentive shares was $12,000 and consequently, the Company was obligated to issue to TCA, see further discussion below. Additionally, the Company paid a broker fee consisting of $22,000 and 52,632 shares of its common stock for arranging this financing. Such fee was recorded as a cost of capital, or reduction to stockholder’s equity. |
|
In connection with the TCA Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Security Agreement (the “TCA Security Agreement”) with TCA. As security for the Company’s obligations to TCA under the Debentures, the TCA Purchase Agreement and any other transaction document, the TCA Security Agreement grants to TCA a continuing, second priority security interest in all of the Company’s assets and property, wheresoever located and whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired. This security interest is subordinate to the security interest of The Boeing Company (“Boeing”), who has a secured interest supporting that certain Boeing License Agreement (defined below). (See Note 9) |
|
On March 18, 2013, the Company entered into an Intercreditor and Non-Disturbance Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among PositiveID and MFS; VeriGreen Energy Corporation, Steel Vault Corporation, IFTH NY Sub, Inc., and IFTH NJ Sub, Inc. Boeing, and TCA. The Intercreditor Agreement sets forth the agreement of Boeing and TCA as to their respective rights and obligations with respect to the Boeing Collateral (as described below) and the TCA Collateral (as described below) and their understanding relative to their respective positions in the Boeing Collateral and the TCA Collateral. |
|
The “Boeing Collateral” includes, among other things, all Intellectual Property Rights (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) in the M-BAND Technology (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), including without limitation certain patents and patent applications set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The TCA Collateral includes any and all property and assets of PositiveID. The liens of Boeing on the Boeing Collateral are senior and prior in right to the liens of TCA on the Boeing Collateral and such liens of TCA on the Boeing Collateral are junior and subordinate to the liens of Boeing on the Boeing Collateral. |
|
On August 21, 2013, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with TCA. Pursuant to the Amendment, principal payments for July through October were deferred and the maturity date for the entire first Debenture was extended to May 16, 2014 and in exchange for this principal holiday, the Company and TCA agreed to increase the outstanding principal balance by $80,000. In connection with this Amendment, the Company accounted for this modification as an extinguishment and recorded a charge to interest expense in the amount of $139,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013, comprised of $59,000 relating to the write-off of unamortized debt discount and the $80,000. |
|
Beginning in January 2014 the Company was not current in its payments under the Debenture. On April 3, 2014 TCA sold its rights under the TCA SPA, Debenture, Security Agreement and all related transaction documents to Ironridge, releasing the Company of all of its obligations to TCA, including the obligation to issue the additional $88,000 incentive shares as discussed above. The sale price paid from Ironridge to TCA was $425,000. Also on April 3, 2014 the Company and Ironridge amended the Debenture, setting the amount owed as of April 3, 2014 at $425,000, extending the maturity date to April 2, 2015, lowering the interest rate to 3.4% and to amend the formula for conversion of Debenture principal and interest into common shares of the Company. Pursuant to the amended Debenture, Ironridge has the right, at any time, to request the conversion of principal and accrued interest into free trading shares of common Stock of the Company at a price equal to: (i) the conversion amount; divided by (ii) an amount, equal to 85% of the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on April 3, 2014, not to exceed 85% of the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of the Company's common Stock for any five of the trading days from April 3, 2014 until the date that the Debenture is paid or converted in full. There was no material gain or loss on this modification. At the time of the amendment the Company recorded a conversion premium of $75,000, all of which was amortized in the six months ended June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014 the $428,613 balance of the Debenture has been recorded as convertible debt on the balance sheet. |
