On January 27, 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 140,000 shares of common stock to R & R, Mr. Silverman and Mr. Caragol in exchange for the Loaned Shares. The securities that were originally issued upon conversion remain outstanding but have no voting, dividend, distribution or other rights of common stockholders. Further, Optimus has indicated in a public filing the absence of beneficial ownership of the 140,000 shares of common stock. The Company believes that, while the transfer agent has not yet cancelled the original 140,000 shares, no requirements exist that legally prevent such cancellation from being effectuated. | On January 27, 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of common stock to R & R Consulting Partners, LLC, Mr. Silverman and Mr. Caragol in exchange for the Loaned Shares.

The Company believes that the transactions undertaken with Optimus as discussed herein were in compliance with applicable securities laws at the time of the financing transactions, including Section 5 of the Securities Act. If a violation did occur in connection with Optimus' resale of the common stock it received in connection with these financings, security holders who purchased these securities would have certain remedies available to them, including the right to rescind the purchase of those securities within the applicable statute of limitations, which under the Securities Act is one year commencing on the date of violation of the federal registration requirements. The Company believes that the federal statute of limitations on sales of shares of the Company’s common stock has expired for sales made under the 2009 Optimus transactions, and that the federal statute of limitations on sales of shares of the Company’s common stock expired in 2012 for sales made under the March 2011 Optimus transaction. Statutes of limitations under state laws vary by state, with the limitation time period under many state statutes not typically beginning until the facts giving rise to a violation are known. The Company is applying a contingency accounting model in determining whether a liability exists for this matter. Under this model, the Company evaluates whether a violation of the applicable securities laws has occurred resulting in a rescission right and whether a claim for a potential violation will be asserted. The Company has determined that there is a remote likelihood as to whether a violation has occurred. If the Company were required to pay security holders for rescission of their purchase of such securities, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company is not presently able to accurately determine an estimated amount for any potential rescission liability associated with the resale of the loaned shares by Optimus in the event that the transaction were to be found to violate Section 5 of the Securities Act as it does not have knowledge of the amount and timing of such resales, nor information regarding the state or states in which such resales may have occurred. The Company believes that the range of prices at which Optimus sold the loaned shares was between $12.5-$80.5 per share related to the 2009 Optimus transactions and between $2.75-$15.75 per share related to the 2011 Optimus transaction. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements related to the outcome of this contingency. As of June 30, 2013, no shares of Series C Preferred Stock were outstanding. | The Company believes that the transactions undertaken with Optimus as discussed herein were in compliance with applicable securities laws at the time of the financing transactions, including Section 5 of the Securities Act.

The purchase price was equal to 102% of the per share closing bid price of the Company’s common stock as reported on a public market on the trading day immediately before the date the Company announced that it entered into the Common Stock Agreement, which was July 27, 2011. | On March 14, 2011, pursuant to the Amended Optimus Purchase Agreement, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company is authorized to issue 400 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the shares Series C of Preferred Stock may not be converted if the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock plus any shares previously issued to Optimus or its affiliates would exceed 19.99% of the common stock outstanding as calculated and determined in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace rules. |

Ironridge Global Technology could pay the purchase price for the shares, at Ironridge Global Technology’s option, in cash or a secured promissory note, except that at least $250,000 of the purchase price was required to be paid in cash. The promissory note bears interest at 1.6% per year calculated on a simple interest basis. The entire principal balance and interest thereon is due and payable seven and one-half years from the date of the promissory note, but no payments are due so long as the Company is in default under the Common Stock Agreement or the Series F Agreement (defined below) or if there are any shares of Series F Preferred Stock issued or outstanding. The promissory note is secured by Ironridge Global Technology’s right, title and interest in all shares legally or beneficially owned by Ironridge or an affiliate, common stock and other securities with a fair market value equal to the principal amount of the promissory note. | Ranking and Voting.

The Company could not deliver a notice to Global Technology to purchase shares of its common stock if the total number of shares of common stock owned or deemed beneficially owned by Ironridge Global Technology and its affiliates would result in Ironridge Global Technology owning or being deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of all such common stock and other voting securities as would be outstanding on the date of exercise. | Conversion. One or more shares of the Series C Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock of the Company, on or after the six month anniversary of the issuance date, at a conversion price equal to the closing bid price on the trading day immediately preceding the Notice date (the “Conversion Price”) by the Company or Optimus. If the Company or Optimus exercises this conversion option with respect to any Series C Preferred Stock, the Company will issue to Optimus the number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x) $10,000 per share of Series C Preferred Stock multiplied by (y) the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock subject to the Notice divided by (z) the Conversion Price with respect to such shares. If the Company exercises the conversion prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance of such shares, then in addition to the conversion shares, the Company must pay to the holder additional shares with respect to such converted shares: (i) 35% of the conversion shares if converted after the six-month anniversary of the issuance date but prior to the first anniversary of the issuance date, (ii) 27% of the converted shares if converted on or after the first anniversary but prior to the second anniversary of the issuance date, (iii) 18% of the converted shares if converted on or after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary of the issuance date, and (iv) 9% of the converted shares if converted on or after the third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance date. |

The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the option of the holder at a fixed conversion price of $12.5 per common share. The conversion price if the Company elects to convert the Series F Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment based on the market price of the Company's common stock and any applicable early redemption price at the time the Company converts. | Redemption. The Company may redeem, for cash, any or all of the Series C Preferred Stock at any time at the redemption price per share equal to $10,000 per share of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Liquidation Value”), plus any accrued but unpaid dividends with respect to such shares of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Price”). If the Company exercises this redemption option with respect to any Series C Preferred Stock prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance of such Series C Preferred Stock, then in addition to the Redemption Price, the Company must pay to Optimus a make-whole price per share equal to the following with respect to such redeemed Series C Preferred Stock: (i) 35% of the Series C Liquidation Value if redeemed prior to the first anniversary of the issuance date, (ii) 27% of the Series C Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the first anniversary but prior to the second anniversary of the issuance date, (iii) 18% of the Series C Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary of the issuance date, and (iv) 9% of the Series C Liquidation Value if redeemed on or after the third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance date. |

| |
Under the terms of the Series F Agreement, as amended on August 12, 2011 (the “Waiver”), and from time to time and at the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may present Ironridge Global with a notice to purchase such Series F Preferred Stock. Upon receipt of a notice, Ironridge Global was obligated to purchase the Series F Preferred Stock in installments as follows: (i) $500,000 on August 15, 2011; (ii) $500,000 on the earlier of (1) 20 trading days after August 15, 2011 and (2) the number of trading days necessary for an aggregate of $2.0 million of the Company’s common stock to trade on a public market; and (iii) $500,000 on the earlier of (1) 20 trading days after the closing of the second tranche above, (2) the number of trading days necessary for an aggregate of $2.0 million of the Company’s common stock to trade on a public market subsequent to the closing of the second tranche above, and (3) September 26, 2011, with the requirement that cash for that tranche be received by the Company on or before September 30, 2011.

Pursuant to the First Amendment, Ironridge Global was obligated to purchase the Series F Preferred Stock in installments as follows: (1) 130 preferred shares on the trading day (“First Closing”) following the later of (i) 10 trading days after September 7, 2011 and (ii) the trading day that aggregate trading volume of the Company's common stock after September 7, 2011, as reported by Bloomberg, equals or exceeds $500,000; (2) 290 preferred shares on the trading day (“Second Closing”) the earlier of (i) 10 trading days after the First Closing and (ii) the trading day that aggregate trading volume of the Company's common stock after the First Closing, as reported by Bloomberg, equals or exceeds $1 million; (3) 290 preferred shares on the trading day (“Third Closing”) following the earlier of (i) 10 trading days after the Second Closing and (ii) the trading day that aggregate trading volume of the Company's common stock after the Second Closing, as reported by Bloomberg, equals or exceeds $1 million; and (4) 290 preferred shares on the trading day (“Fourth Closing”) following the earlier of (i) 10 trading days after the Third Closing and (ii) the trading day that aggregate trading volume of the Company's common stock after the Third Closing, as reported by Bloomberg, equals or exceeds $1 million (each of the First, Second, Third and Fourth Closings, a “Purchase Closing”). Each of the respective time periods between each Purchase Closing and the prior Purchase Closing shall be the respective “Calculation Period.” |
| |
Upon such conversion, the Company will issue that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Early Redemption Price, as defined below, multiplied by the number of shares subject to conversion, divided by the Series H Conversion Price. | If the sole condition precedent to a Purchase Closing not satisfied is that the Condition is not met, the Company could, at its sole option, elect at any time to proceed with an alternate Purchase Closing, in which case, with respect to such Purchase Closing: |
| |
Redemption. The Company may redeem any or all of the Series H Preferred Stock for cash at any time after the tenth anniversary of the issuance date at the redemption price per share (the “Series H Redemption Price”), equal to $1,000 per share of Series H Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends with respect to such shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the “Series H Liquidation Value”). Prior to the tenth anniversary of the issuance of the Series H Preferred Stock, the Company may, at its option, redeem the shares at any time after the issuance date at a price per share equal to the Series H Liquidation Value plus the total cumulative amount of dividends that otherwise would have been payable through the tenth anniversary of the issuance date, less any dividends that have been paid (the “Early Redemption Price”). | | ● | The Condition will not apply with respect to that Purchase Closing; |
| |
In addition, if the Company determines to liquidate, dissolve or wind-up the Company’s business, or engage in any liquidation event, it must redeem the Series H Preferred Stock at the applicable Early Redemption Price. | | ● | The Calculation Period will (i) commence on the trading day after Ironridge Global receives written notice of Company’s election, and (ii) exclude any trading day on which the Company’s common stock trades below $0.20 per share; and |
| |
The Company cannot issue any shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock if it would result in the holder 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. | | ● | The price per preferred share will be equal to the lesser of (a) $1,000, and (b) an amount equal to (i) $1,000, multiplied by (ii) 85% of the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices (the “VWAP”) during the Calculation Period, divided by (iii) $0.257. |
| |
Ironridge's obligation to purchase the Series H Preferred Stock was subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including (i) that the Company’s common stock is listed for and trading on a trading market, (ii) no uncured default exists under the Series H Agreement, and (iii) the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in the Series H Agreement are true and correct in all material respects. | Pursuant to the First Amendment, the price per preferred share with respect to the First Closing was equal to the lesser of: (a) $1,000; and (b) an amount, not below zero, equal to (i) $1,000, multiplied by (ii) 85% of the average of the VWAPs during the period between September 7, 2011 through the First Closing minus $0.20, divided by (iii) $0.057. The First Closing occurred on September 20, 2011, pursuant to which the Company issued 130 shares of Series F Preferred Stock to Ironridge Global for a nominal purchase price. |

On November 18, 2011, the Third Closing occurred, pursuant to which the Company issued 290 shares of Series F Preferred Stock to Ironridge Global for a purchase price of approximately $243,000.

On January 13, 2012, the Company also entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Ironridge whereby Ironridge agreed to purchase up to $10 million of shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time over a 24-month period. Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, Ironridge was not obligated to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock unless and until certain conditions were met, including but not limited to the SEC declaring effective a Registration Statement (the “First Ironridge Registration Statement”) on Form S-1 and the Company maintaining an effective First Ironridge Registration Statement which registers Ironridge’s resale of any shares purchased by it under the facility, including the Commitment Fee Shares and Success Fee Shares (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement). The customary terms and conditions associated with Ironridge’s registration rights were set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement that was also entered into by the parties on January 13, 2012. As the First Ironridge Registration Statement never went effective, the Securities Purchase Agreement was terminated on April 26, 2012. It was replaced by an agreement that was substantially equivalent (see the Stock Purchase Agreement below). | On July 12, 2012, the Company also entered into an agreement with Ironridge pursuant to which 500 shares of Series F Preferred Stock were issued to Ironridge. The $500,000 value which represents the fair value of the preferred shares was recorded as a charge to stockholder’s equity. |
| |
On July 12, 2012, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Ironridge whereby Ironridge agreed to purchase up to $10 million of shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time over a 24-month period. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Ironridge was not obligated to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock unless and until certain conditions were met, including but not limited to the Company maintaining an effective Registration Statement (the “Second Ironridge Registration Statement”) on Form S-1which registers Ironridge’s resale of any shares purchased by it under the facility, including the Commitment Fee Shares (as defined below). The customary terms and conditions associated with Ironridge’s registration rights are set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement that was also entered into by the parties on July 12, 2012 (the “Second Ironridge Registration Rights Agreement”). | On September 12, 2012, the Company also entered into an agreement with Ironridge pursuant to which 100 shares of Series F Preferred Stock were issued to Ironridge. The Series F Preferred Stock were issued as a waiver to satisfy any penalties resulting from the Company’s late delivery of shares under a conversion of Series F Preferred Stock by Ironridge. The $100,000 value, which represent the fair value of the preferred shares, was recorded as other expense in the statement of operations. |

On August 13, 2012, the Second Ironridge Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC. Fifteen (15) trading days after the Second Ironridge Registration Statement was declared effective, the Company had the right to sell and issue to Ironridge, and Ironridge was obligated to purchase from the Company, up to $10 million of shares of the Company’s common stock over a 24-month period beginning on such date (the “Commitment Period”). Ironridge did continuous drawdowns of 80,000 shares under the facility until the Company sent a notice suspending the draw down notice. The draw down pricing period was the number of consecutive trading days necessary for 240,000 shares of the Company’s stock to trade. Only one draw down was allowed in each draw down pricing period. The purchase price for the shares was 90% of the average of the daily VWAP on each trading day during the draw down pricing period preceding such current draw down pricing period, not to exceed the arithmetic average of any three daily VWAPs during the draw down pricing period preceding such current draw down pricing period. For purposes of a recommencement following a suspension, the purchase price was the lower of the foregoing and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the recommencement date; and for purposes of the first draw down the purchase price meant the VWAP for the 15 consecutive trading days after the effective date of the Second Ironridge Registration Statement. The Company delivered the shares sold to Ironridge by the third trading day following the draw down pricing period. Ironridge was entitled to liquidated damages in connection with certain delays in the delivery of any draw down shares. The Stock Purchase Agreement also provided for a commitment fee to Ironridge of 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Commitment Fee Shares”). The Company issued 1,000,000 shares to Ironridge under the equity line during 2012 (inclusive of the commitment shares), for which it received $379,220 in proceeds. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 360,000 shares under the equity line and had received $153,040 in proceeds. At June 30, 2013, all shares previously registered had been issued. While shares of our common stock may be issuable to the Ironridge Entities upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock, no more sales can be made under our previous equity line with the Ironridge Entities. | During 2012, the Company had converted 1,324 shares of Series F Preferred Stock pursuant to which 79.6 million shares of common stock were issued. Additionally, during early 2013, 376 shares of Series F Preferred Stock were converted. Through March 31, 2013, the Company has converted a total of 1,700 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, pursuant to which the Company issued a total of 122,939,758 shares of common stock to the Ironridge Entities. As of March 31, 2013 there were 400 shares of Series F Preferred Stock outstanding. |
| |
Convertible Note Financings | In connection with the 2012 conversions, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion dividend during the year ended December 31, 2012 totaling approximately $15.5 million, representing the excess of fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of issuance of the converted Series F Preferred Stock over the effective conversion rate, multiplied by the common shares issued upon conversion. |
| |
On August 14, 2012, the Company entered into a financing arrangement pursuant to which it may borrow up to $400,000 in convertible, unsecured debt, at the discretion of the lender. The Company issued a promissory note in favor of a lender with a principal sum of $445,000 (with a $45,000 original issue discount). The debt is to be issued at a 10% discount, matures twelve months from the date funded, has a one time 10% interest charge if not paid within 90 days, and is convertible at the option of the lender into shares of the Company’s common stock at the lesser of $0.50 per share or 75% of the lowest closing price in the 25 trading days prior to conversion. The note might be accelerated if an event of default occurs under the terms of the note, including the Company’s failure to pay principal and interest when due, certain bankruptcy events or if the Company is delinquent in its SEC filings. | Certificate of Designations for Series F Preferred Stock |

As of June 30, 2013, the Company has issued an aggregate of 421,656 shares of common stock to convert the face value of the promissory note. All related debt discount and beneficial conversion feature were fully amortized in conjunction with the conversion of the note. | 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. A summary of the Certificate of Designations is set forth below: |

On July 3, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for a new convertible promissory note (the " Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement the investor committed to purchase an 8% Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $78,500 (together with any note(s) issued in replacement thereof or as a dividend thereon or otherwise with respect thereto in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Note”), convertible into shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in such Note. Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the Note is issued and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The lender may convert the Note into common shares of stock at a 42% discount to the price of common shares in the ten days prior to conversion. | 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. |
| |
Debenture Financing | 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. |
| |
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, redeemable debentures (the “Debentures”). A $550,000 Debenture was purchased by TCA on January 16, 2013 (the “First Debenture”). | Conversion. The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at Ironridge Global's 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”). |
| |
The maturity date of the First Debenture is 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 with no penalty or premium 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. | If Ironridge Global elects to convert, the Company will issue that number of shares of its common stock equal to the Series F Liquidation Value multiplied by the number of shares subject to conversion, divided by the Series F Conversion Price. |
| |
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. | 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 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. |
| |
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, 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). Any adjustment necessary related to the Incentive Shares will be recorded at the twelve month evaluation date. Had the Incentive Shares been remeasured at June 30, 2013, the Company would have owed an additional 475,328 shares based on the share price at June 30, 2013. 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. | After 20 trading days, Ironridge Global 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 20 trading days following Ironridge Global'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 Ironridge Global'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, Ironridge Global will return the Series F Reconciling Conversion Shares to the Company and the pro rata amount of the conversion notice will be deemed canceled. |
| |
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) | The Company cannot issue any shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock if it would result in Ironridge Global 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. |

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. | 2012 Ironridge Series H Preferred Financing |
| |
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 January 13, 2012, the Company, entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Series H Agreement”) with Ironridge, under which Ironridge was committed to purchase for cash $500,000 in shares of the Company’s redeemable, convertible Series H Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) at $1,000 per share of Series H Preferred Stock. |
| |
In July 2013 the Company and TCA reached a verbal agreement to defer the July and August principal payments until the first half of 2014. In exchange for this principal holiday the Company and TCA agreed to increase the outstanding principal balance by $80,000. The parties are in the process of documenting this agreement. Completion of the agreement will result in an outstanding principal balance owed to TCA of $416,544 as of June 30, 2013. | Each share of Series H Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time by the holder at a conversion price of $0.15 per share. The Series H Preferred Stock accrued dividends in the amount of 4.5% per annum, subject to increase if the closing price of the Company’s common stock fell below $0.125 per share, up to a maximum rate of 10% per annum. The dividends were payable quarterly, at the Company’s option, in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock.
