CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES AND DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS [Text Block] | 9. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES AND DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS a) $137,660 Unsecured Convertible Debentures On August 6, 2014, the Company issued a Canadian $1,549,000 face value 12% convertible debentures with a term to August 6, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). At any time while the debentures are outstanding, the holder has the option to convert the outstanding principal of the debentures into common shares of the Company at a fixed conversion price of CAD $0.50 per share. At any time after February 6, 2015, the Company has the right to force the conversion of the debentures into common shares at a price of at least CAD$0.65 per common share for a period of at least 20 consecutive trading days. If the common shares do not trade on any trading day and the bid price of the common Shares is CAD $0.65 or greater, the common shares shall be deemed to have traded at a price of at least CAD $0.65 on that trading day. Additionally, the Company has the right to redeem the debentures, in whole or in part, (a) during the 12 months ending August 6, 2015, at a premium of 15% to the principal amount being redeemed plus any accrued interest, (b) during the 12 months ending August 6, 2016, at a premium of 5% to the principal amount being redeemed plus any accrued interest, (c) during the 12 months ending August 6, 2017, at a premium of 2% to the principal amount being redeemed plus any accrued interest. In connection with the financing, the Company issued warrants to placement agents to purchase 151,900 shares of common stock at an exercise price of CAD $0.50 per share. Additionally, the Company incurred $157,293 (CAD $174,209) in financing fees. The Company evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible debentures and placement agent warrants under the guidance of ASC 815. The conversion feature met the definition of conventional convertible for purposes of applying the conventional convertible exemption. The definition of conventional contemplates a fixed number of shares issuable under the arrangement. The instrument was convertible into a fixed number of shares and there were no down round anti-dilution protection features contained in the contracts. The Company was required to consider whether the hybrid contract embodied a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). The debentures did not result in a BCF because the conversion price was not in the money on the inception date. There were no terms or features contained in the warrant agreement that would preclude the warrants from achieving equity classification. The following table reflects the allocation of the purchase on the financing date: Convertible Debentures - Face Value $ 1,398,342 Proceeds $ (1,279,773 ) Deferred financing costs (190,876 ) Paid in capital (warrants) 33,583 Prepaid expenses 16,681 Accrued expenses 21,793 Convertible debentures 1,398,592 As of November 30, 2016, these unsecured convertible debentures, net of unamortized deferred financing costs, were recorded at $1,117,771 on exchange rate conversion. On December 7, 2016, the Company entered a Securities Purchase Agreement to sell $1,500,000 of 10% senior secured convertible debentures, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, in a private placement. The sale of the Secured Notes was closed on December 7, 2016. A condition to the sale of the Secured Notes was the exchange of at least 80% in principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 12% Unsecured Debentures, which mature on August 6, 2017 (the “Unsecured Debentures”) for an equal principal amount of Subordinate Secured Debentures. Concurrent with the sale of the Secured Notes, $1,015,026 (CAD$1,363,000) of the Company’s outstanding Unsecured Debentures, which represented approximately 88% of the outstanding Unsecured Debentures, were exchanged for an equal principal amount of the Subordinate Secured Debentures.

The Subordinate Secured Debentures mature on June 6, 2019 and bear interest at 12% per annum payable, semiannually. The Subordinate Secured Debentures are convertible into common shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the Note Conversion Price so long as any Secured Notes are outstanding, and thereafter, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Indenture. (ii) Secured convertible debentures On December 7, 2016, the Company issued a $1,500,000 10% secured convertible debenture with a term to June 9, 2019 (the “Maturity Date”). The holder has the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest into common stock at a conversion price of $0.24 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustments in the event of subsequent equity issuances at a price per share below $0.24. The Company has evaluated the terms and conditions of the convertible bridge loan and detachable warrants under the guidance of ASC 815. Even though the instrument's conversion price used to calculate the settlement amount is not fixed the embedded conversion feature is still considered “indexed to an entity's own stock” under the guidance of ASC 815 because the only variables that could affect the settlement amount are inputs to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed forward or option on equity shares. However, the conversion feature did not meet the conditions for equity classification provided in paragraphs 11 through 35 of ASC 815-40-25 because due the contracts contain a security agreement which requires the posting of collateral. Therefore, the conversion feature requires bifurcation and liability classification.
