1. Nature of Operations
NeuLion, Inc. (“NeuLion” or the “Company”) is a technology service provider that specializes in the distribution and monetization of live and on-demand digital video content to Internet-enabled devices. Through the Company’s cloud-based end-to-end solution, the Company builds and manages interactive digital networks that enable the Company’s customers to provide a destination for their subscribers to view and interact with their content. The Company was incorporated on January 14, 2000 under the Canada Business Corporations Act and was domesticated under Delaware law on November 30, 2010. The Company’s common stock is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol NLN.
The Company’s core business and business model have evolved from NeuLion being a provider of professional information technology services and international programming to being a provider of customized, end-to-end, interactive video services for a wide range of professional and collegiate sports properties, cable networks and operators, content owners and distributors, and telecommunication companies. With a fundamental shift in the way media is now being consumed, technological advancements are affecting how, when and where consumers connect to content. NeuLion’s technology empowers its customers to capitalize on the growing consumer demand for viewing video content on multiple types of Internet-enabled devices by enabling delivery to a range of equipment, including personal computers, laptops, mobile devices, gaming consoles, tablets, Internet-enabled TVs, third-party set top boxes (“STBs”), standard TV sets that have Internet-connected devices and other similar consumer accessories. The Company’s platform offers an end-to-end service, which includes content management, subscriber management, digital rights management, billing services, app creation, content delivery and advertising solutions.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s accounting policies are consistent with those presented in its annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2012. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all footnote disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2012 as they appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
These financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the disclosures made in the accompanying notes. Despite the Company’s intention to establish accurate estimates and use reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated on consolidation.
In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $62,429 and $229,062 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 - $86,461 and $300,635, respectively), and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

6. Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, and excludes the effect of potential shares of common stock, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the losses recorded by the Company.
The following table summarizes the potential shares of common stock that were outstanding as at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 but not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

9. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes Recognition.” The Company does not believe there are any uncertain tax provisions under ASC 740. The Company’s federal and state tax returns remain open to IRS audit for the year 2011. The IRS has completed its audit for the year ended November 30, 2010 with no significant findings.
The Company has recorded a valuation allowance against the income tax benefit generated by the current period loss. All previously recognized deferred tax assets and net operating losses have been reduced by a valuation allowance.
Differences between the income tax expense reported in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss and income tax benefit based on statutory income tax rates are attributable to non-deductible expenses, state taxes and current period increases in the valuation allowance.
10. Redeemable Preferred Stock
The Company has 50,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, of which 17,176,818 shares have been designated as Class 3 Preference Shares and 10,912,265 have been designated as Class 4 Preference Shares.
Class 3 Preference Shares
On September 29, 2010, the Company issued 17,176,818 Class 3 Preference Shares, at a price of CDN$0.60 per share in a private offering, for aggregate gross proceeds of $10,000,000. Expenses related to the share issuance were $245,662. The principal terms of the Class 3 Preference Shares are as follows:
Voting rights – The Class 3 Preference Shares have voting rights (one vote per share) equal to those of the Company’s common stock.
Dividend rights – The Class 3 Preference Shares carry a fixed cumulative dividend, as and when declared by our Board of Directors, of 8% per annum, accrued daily, compounded annually and payable in cash upon a liquidation event for up to five years, as well as the right to receive any dividends paid to holders of common stock.
Conversion rights – The holders of the Class 3 Preference Shares have the right to convert any or all of their Class 3 Preference Shares, at the option of the holder, at any time, into common stock on a one for one basis. In addition, the Class 3 Preference Shares will automatically be converted into common stock in the event that the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class 3 Preference Shares consent to such conversion. In the event of conversion to common stock, accrued but unpaid dividends shall be paid in cash and shall not increase the number of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion.
Redemption rights – At any time after five years from the date of issuance, the holders of a majority of the Class 3 Preference Shares may elect to have the Company redeem the Class 3 Preference Shares for an amount equal to CDN$0.60 per Class 3 Preference Share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends (the “Class 3 Redemption Amount”). At any time after five years from the date of issuance, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Class 3 Preference Shares for an amount equal to CDN$0.60 per Class 3 Preference Share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends.
On June 7, 2011, stockholders of the Company approved a resolution to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the Redemption Amount (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) of the Class 3 Preference Shares from CDN$0.60 to US$0.58218 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.

September 30, 2013 and 2012 (unaudited)
Liquidation entitlement – In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Class 3 Preference Shares shall be entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of common stock, an amount equal to the aggregate Class 3 Redemption Amount.
Other provisions – There will be proportional adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like.
Accounting for Class 3 Preference Shares
If certain criteria are met, companies must bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative instruments. The Company has evaluated the conversion option on the Class 3 Preference Shares and determined that the embedded conversion option should not be bifurcated. Additionally, the Company analyzed the conversion feature and determined that the effective conversion price was higher than the market price at the date of issuance; therefore, no beneficial conversion feature was recorded. The Company has classified the Class 3 Preference Shares as temporary equity because they are redeemable upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer. As noted above, the holders of the Class 3 Preference Shares may demand redemption at any time after five years from the date of issuance. As the redemption amount was originally denominated in Canadian dollars, the Company re-measured the redeemable preferred stock amount recorded in the consolidated balance sheet each period, based on prevailing exchange rates. The resulting adjustment, along with the accretion of the issuance costs, was recorded in stockholders’ equity.
As a result of the aforementioned change in the Class 3 Redemption Amount, from CDN$0.60 to US$0.58218 per share, the Company adjusted the carrying amount of the Class 3 Preference Shares on June 7, 2011 to US$10 million.
Class 4 Preference Shares
On June 29, 2011, the Company issued 10,912,265 Class 4 Preference Shares, at a price of $0.4582 per share in a private offering, for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,000,000. Expenses related to the share issuance were $150,454. The principal terms of the Class 4 Preference Shares are as follows:
Voting rights – The Class 4 Preference Shares have voting rights (one vote per share) equal to those of the Company’s common stock.
Dividend rights – The Class 4 Preference Shares carry a fixed cumulative dividend at a rate of 8% per annum to be paid as and when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such dividends are automatically payable in cash upon a liquidation event or redemption by the Company for up to five years.
Conversion rights – The holders of the Class 4 Preference Shares have the right to convert any or all of their Class 4 Preference Shares, at the option of the holder, at any time, into common stock on a one for one basis. In addition, the Class 4 Preference Shares will automatically be converted into common stock in the event that the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class 4 Preference Shares consent to such conversion. In the event of conversion to common stock, declared and accrued, but unpaid dividends shall be paid in shares of common stock based on a conversion price equal to the trading price of the common stock at the close of business on the last trading day prior to the date of conversion.
Redemption rights – At any time after five years from the date of issuance, the holders of a majority of the Class 4 Preference Shares may elect to have the Company redeem the Class 4 Preference Shares for an amount equal to $0.4582 per Class 4 Preference Share plus all declared and accrued, but unpaid, dividends (the “Class 4 Redemption Amount”). At any time after five years from the date of issuance, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Class 4 Preference Shares for an amount equal to $0.4582 per Class 4 Preference Share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends.

11. Private Placement and Convertible Note
On September 25, 2012, the Company completed a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4.6 million. The Company sold an aggregate of 22,782,674 units at CDN$0.20 each (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one share of common stock and one-half of one common stock purchase warrant (“Warrant”) with each full Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at US$0.30 for thirty (30) months following closing (the “Offering”). The Vice Chairman of our Board of Directors purchased 1,745,000 Units in the Offering for CDN$349,000. The Chairman of our Board of Directors purchased 2,334,500 Units in the Offering for CDN$466,900 and loaned the Company CDN$533,100 (evidenced by a convertible note in the amount of $545,628). Upon receipt of stockholder approval, all outstanding principal and any accrued and unpaid interest owing on the convertible note will automatically convert into shares of common stock at a rate of US$0.20 per share (the “Conversion Shares”) and the number of Warrants equal to one-half of the number of Conversion Shares. If stockholder approval is not received, all principal and interest (calculated (but not compounded) daily and payable in arrears at a rate of 6% per annum) will be paid on the maturity date, September 25, 2013.
The agent for a portion of the subscriptions, received from the Company a cash commission equal to 8% of the gross proceeds of the offering (excluding proceeds arising from Units purchased by the Chairman and Vice Chairman noted above) and broker warrants (“Broker Warrants”) equal to 4% of the number of Units issued in the Offering. Each Broker Warrant is exercisable for one Unit at an exercise price of US$0.21 per Broker Warrant (“Broker Unit”) at any time prior to the 30 month anniversary of the closing date of the Offering. Each Broker Unit consists of one share of common stock and one-half of a Warrant, and each full Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at US$0.30 for 30 months following the closing date of the Offering.
At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 5, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the conversion of the convertible note held by the Chairman. Upon such approval, the loan principal of $545,628 plus accrued interest of $22,692 automatically converted into 2,841,600 shares of common stock and 1,420,800 Warrants.

Accounting for Convertible Note
If certain criteria are met, companies must bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative instruments. The Company analyzed the conversion feature on the convertible note and determined that the embedded conversion feature did not require bifurcation; however, the effective conversion price was lower than the market price at the date of issuance; therefore, a beneficial conversion feature was recorded. Additionally, the Company bifurcated the fair value of the warrants from the convertible note. The discount on the note created by the beneficial conversion feature and the fair value of the warrants was amortized into interest expense over the term when the convertible note was converted. The Company classified the convertible note as a current liability because it was convertible within a year. On June 5, 2013, upon conversion, the Company reclassified the note from a current liability to equity.
This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars (“US$” or “$”) unless stated otherwise. As at November 5, 2013 the Bank of Canada noon rate for conversion of United States dollars to Canadian dollars (“CDN$”) was US$1 to CDN$1.0448.

Overall Performance – Three months ended September 30, 2013 vs three months ended September 30, 2012
Highlights
| Ø | Total revenue increased by $0.7 million, or 7%, from $9.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. |
| Ø | Cost of revenue, as a percentage of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, improved by 5%, from 31% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 to 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2013. |
| Ø | Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) improved by $0.8 million, from $(0.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 to $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. |
Overview
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $10.0 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 7%, from $9.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The improvement was primarily attributable to an increase in revenue in our Pro Sports category of customers.
Our consolidated net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $1.8 million, or a loss of $0.01 per basic and diluted share of common stock, compared with a net loss of $2.2 million, or a loss of $0.02 per basic and diluted share of common stock, for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The improvement in consolidated net loss of $0.4 million was due to the following:
| • | an increase in total revenue of $0.7 million; |
| • | a decrease in cost of revenue of $0.2 million; |
| • | a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, of $0.1 million; and |
| • | a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $0.2 million (non-cash item). |
offset by the following:
| • | an increase in stock-based compensation of $0.4 million (non-cash item); |
| • | an increase in research and development expenses of $0.3 million; and |
| • | an increase in income taxes of $0.1 million (non-cash item). |
Our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) was $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $(0.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The improvement in non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was due to the impact of the items noted in the net loss discussion above.
We report non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by management to evaluate our results and make strategic decisions about the Company, including potential acquisitions. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, discounts on convertible notes, unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, non-controlling interests and foreign exchange gain/loss. This measure does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and therefore is unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures used by other companies, and should not be viewed as an alternative to measures of financial performance or changes in cash flows calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The reconciliation from net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

Our consolidated net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $3.4 million, or a loss of $0.02 per basic and diluted share of common stock, compared with a net loss of $9.2 million, or a loss of $0.07 per basic and diluted share of common stock, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The improvement in consolidated net loss of $5.8 million was due to the following:
| • | an increase in total revenue of $4.5 million; |
| • | a decrease in cost of revenue of $1.2 million; |
| • | a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, of $0.1 million; |
| • | a decrease in stock-based compensation of $0.2 million (non-cash item); and |
| • | a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $0.6 million (non-cash item). |
offset by the following:
| • | an increase in research and development expenses of $0.5 million; and |
| • | a discount on convertible note of $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 (non-cash item). |
Our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) was $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $(4.1) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The improvement in non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was due to the impact of the items noted in the net loss discussion above.
We report non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by management to evaluate our results and make strategic decisions about the Company, including potential acquisitions. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, discounts on convertible notes, unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, non-controlling interests and foreign exchange gain/loss. This measure does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and therefore is unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures used by other companies, and should not be viewed as an alternative to measures of financial performance or changes in cash flows calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The reconciliation from net loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

OPERATIONS
Revenue
We earn revenue from four broad categories of customers:
• Pro Sports
This category contains all of our major, minor and junior sports league customers. These customers include the National Football League (NFL), the National Hockey League (NHL), the National Basketball Association (NBA), Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Major League Soccer (MLS) and the American Hockey League (AHL).
• College Sports
This category contains all of our college and collegiate conference customers. We partner with many National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) schools and conferences and have agreements in place with over 150 colleges, universities and related websites. These customers include the University of North Carolina, Louisiana State University, Texas A&M University and Duke University.
• TV Everywhere
This category contains all of our channel video distributors and operators, networks and programmers and studios and content aggregators. These customers include Independent Film Channel, Univision, China Network Television (a new media agency of China Central Television), Sky Angel, Rogers, Outdoor Channel, TVG Network, CBC, Zon Multimedia, Cablevision MSG Varsity, Shaw Communications, Big Ten Network and KyLin TV.
• Other Customers
This category includes our B2C business, in which we market our own content directly to customers, and various consulting services. Effective April 1, 2012, the Company amended its agreement with KyLin TV, such that, in addition to the services previously provided, KyLin TV was appointed the exclusive distributor of the Company’s B2C IPTV interests. As exclusive distributor, KyLin TV obtains, advertises and markets most of the Company’s B2C content, in accordance with the terms of the amendment. Accordingly, KyLin TV records the gross revenues from the Company’s B2C content as well as the associated license fees expense, and the Company records revenues in accordance with the revised fee schedule in the amendment.
Within each of these four categories of customers, revenue is categorized as follows:
• Services revenue, which consists of:
• Setup fees - non-recurring and charged to customers for design, setup and implementation services.
• Monthly/annual fees - recurring and charged to customers for ongoing hosting, support and maintenance.
• Variable fees - recurring and earned through subscriptions, usage, advertising, support, eCommerce and other.
| § | Subscription revenue consists of recurring revenue based on the number of subscribers. Revenue is typically generated on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis and can be either a fixed fee per user or a variable fee based on a percentage of the subscription price. |
| § | Usage fees are charged to customers for bandwidth and storage. |
| § | Advertising revenues are earned through the insertion of advertising impressions on websites and in streaming video at a cost per thousand impressions. |
| § | Support revenue consists of fees charged to our customers for providing customer support to their end users. |
| § | eCommerce revenues are earned through providing customers with ticketing and retail merchandising web solutions. |
| § | Other revenue consists of fees charged to customers that do not fall into any one of the categories described above. |
• Equipment revenue, which is non-recurring, consists of the sale of STBs to content partners and/or end users and is recognized when title to a STB passes to our customer. Shipping revenue, STB rentals and computer hardware sales are also included in equipment revenue. With the proliferation of connected devices, such as iPad, iPhone, Android tablets and phones, gaming devices and connected TVs, we expect equipment revenue to continue to decrease going forward.
Cost and Expenses
Cost of services revenue
Cost of services revenue primarily consists of:
• revenue share payments;
• broadcast operating costs (teleport fees, bandwidth usage fees, colocation fees); and
• cost of advertising revenue, which is subject to revenue shares with the content provider.
Cost of equipment revenue
Cost of equipment revenue primarily consists of purchases of STB products and parts for resale to customers. Shipping costs are included in cost of equipment revenue.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, including stock-based compensation, include:
• Wages and benefits – represents compensation for our full-time and part-time employees as well as fees for consultants we use from time to time;
• Stock-based compensation – represents the estimated fair value of our options, warrants and stock appreciation rights (“Convertible Securities”) for financial accounting purposes, prepared using the Black-Scholes-Merton model, which requires a number of subjective assumptions, including assumptions about the expected life of the Convertible Securities, risk-free interest rates, dividend rates, forfeiture rates and the future volatility of the price of our shares of common stock. The estimated fair value of the Convertible Securities is expensed over the vesting period, which is normally four years, with the Convertible Securities vesting in equal amounts each year. However, our Board of Directors has the discretion to grant options with different vesting periods;
• Professional fees – represents legal, accounting, and public and investor relations expenses; and
• Other SG&A expenses – represents travel expenses, rent, office supplies, corporate IT services, credit card processing fees, marketing and other general operating expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash position was $21.3 million at September 30, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we generated $11.2 million from operations, which included cash inflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $10.0 million. Additionally, we spent $1.0 million to purchase fixed assets.
As of September 30, 2013, our principal sources of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $21.3 million and trade accounts receivable of $3.8 million. We closed a $4.7 million private placement on September 25, 2012; we are using the net proceeds from this private placement for general working capital purposes. We continue to closely monitor our cash balances to ensure that we have sufficient cash on hand to meet our operating needs. Management believes that we have sufficient liquidity to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.
At September 30, 2013, approximately 89% of our cash and cash equivalents were held in accounts with U.S. banks that received a BBB+ rating from Standard and Poor’s and an A3 rating from Moody’s. The Company believes that these U.S. financial institutions are secure notwithstanding the current global economy and that we will be able to access the remaining balance of bank deposits. Our investment policy is to invest in low-risk short-term investments which are primarily term deposits. We have not had a history of any defaults on these term deposits, nor do we expect any in the future given the short term maturity of these investments.
We are still building out our current business. In 2006, our core business and business model evolved from providing professional information technology services and international programming to providing customized, end-to-end, interactive video services for a wide range of professional and collegiate sports properties, cable networks and operators, content owners and distributors, and telecommunication companies. From our inception, we have incurred substantial net losses and have an accumulated deficit of $88.7 million; however, our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (as previously defined) has improved period-over-period and management expects this trend to continue. We continue to review our operating structure in an attempt to maximize revenue opportunities, further reduce costs and achieve profitability. Based on our current business plan and internal forecasts, we believe that our cash on hand will be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating cash requirements for the next twelve months. However, we will require expenditures of significant funds for research and development, maintaining adequate video streaming and database software, and the construction and maintenance of our delivery infrastructure and office facilities. Cash from operations could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. If our actual cash needs are greater than forecasted and if cash on hand is insufficient to meet our working capital and cash requirements for the next twelve months, we may require outside capital in addition to cash flow from operations in order to fund our business. Our short operating history and our current lack of profitability could each or all be factors that might negatively impact our ability to obtain outside capital on reasonable terms, or at all. If we were ever unable to obtain needed capital, we would reevaluate and reprioritize our planned capital expenditures and operating activities. We cannot assure you that we will ultimately be able to generate sufficient revenue or reduce our costs in the anticipated time frame to become profitable and have sustainable net positive cash flows.
Working Capital Requirements
Our net working capital at September 30, 2013 was $(2.4) million, an improvement of $0.1 million from the December 31, 2012 net working capital of $(2.5) million. Our working capital ratios at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were 0.92 and 0.88, respectively. Included in current liabilities at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are approximately $7.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively, of liabilities (deferred revenue and convertible note) that we do not anticipate settling in cash.
The change in working capital was due to an increase in current assets of $9.2 million offset by an increase in current liabilities of $9.1 million.
Current assets at September 30, 2013 were $27.4 million, an increase of $9.2 million from the December 31, 2012 balance of $18.2 million. The change was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $10.2 million offset by a decreases in due from related parties of $0.6 million and accounts receivable of $0.4 million.
Current liabilities at September 30, 2013 were $29.7 million, an increase of $9.1 million from the December 31, 2012 balance of $20.6 million. The change was primarily due to increases in accounts payable of $6.8 million, accrued liabilities of $0.7 million and deferred revenue of $1.9 million offset by a decrease in convertible note, net of discount, of $0.3 million.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2013.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During our most recent fiscal quarter, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
1. As more fully described in Note 11 to the Company’s financial statements set forth in Item 1 of Part I hereof, on September 25, 2012, the Company completed a private placement of Units. The agent for a portion of the subscriptions, who resided outside the United States, received from the Company a cash commission and Broker Warrants, each of which is exercisable for one Broker Unit at any time prior to the 30 month anniversary of the closing date of the Offering. Each Broker Unit consists of one share of common stock and one-half of one Warrant, and each full Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at $0.30 for 30 months following the closing date of the Offering. Between July 1, 2013 and September 30, 2013, an aggregate of 4,000 Broker Warrants were exercised, at an exercise price of $0.21 per Broker Warrant for gross proceeds of $840, to purchase 4,000 shares of common stock and 2,000 Warrants. The Company offered and sold the common stock and Warrants in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S under the Securities Act.
2. Between July 1, 2013 and September 30, 2013, certain subscribers to the Company’s September 25, 2012 private placement residing outside the United States exercised an aggregate of 2,000 Warrants and received 633 shares of common stock. Per the terms of the Warrant certificates, the Warrant exercise took place on a cashless basis, which resulted in the holder receiving the number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the “intrinsic value” of the Warrants being exercised by the “fair market value.” The “intrinsic value” per share was determined by subtracting the exercise price of $0.30 per share from the fair market value (conversion from Canadian dollars to US dollars took place). The “fair market value” means the average of the closing prices of the common stock of the Company from the five days immediately prior to the date on which the Company received an exercise notice from a holder. As a result of the cashless exercise, the holder did not make any payment to the Company in connection with exercising the Warrants. The Company offered and sold the common stock in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S under the Securities Act.
