Series B preferred stock financing the Series B Private Placement The Company entered into an amended and restated securities purchase agreement (the A&R Series B Purchase Agreement) on March 27, 2015 and March 31, 2015 with a number of new and existing accredited investors (collectively, the Series B Investors) pursuant to which it sold $2,130,750 of Series B Preferred Stock convertible into common stock at $0.55 per share in a private placement (the Series B Private Placement). In addition, pursuant to the A&R Series B Purchase Agreement, the Company issued series A warrants (the Series A Warrants) to purchase up to 2,905,568 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price per share of $0.70 to the Series B Investors. The Series A Warrants expire on March 31, 2020. Pursuant to the closings of the Series B Private Placements in March 2015, the Company issued 387.4088 shares of Series B Preferred Stock convertible into 3,874,088 shares of common stock and Series A Warrants to purchase 2,905,568 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,130,750, of which $18,000 represents the exchange of stock-based compensation to a consultant that was to be settled in the form of shares of common stock and was settled is Series B Preferred Stock and Series A Warrants. As a result of the exchange, the Company recorded an additional $12,695 of stock-based compensation. In connection with the March 2015 closings of the Series B Private Placement, the placement agents were paid a total cash fee of $147,451 including expense allowances and reimbursements, and were issued an aggregate of 309,927 Series A Warrants. On the grant dates, the fair value of the placement agent warrants amounted to $158,441 and was recorded as a stock issuance cost. Net proceeds amounted to $1,945,244 after deducting offering expenses to be paid in cash, including the placement agent fees and legal fees and other expenses. Accounting for the Series B Preferred Stock The Company determined the Series B Preferred Stock should be classified as equity as it is not mandatorily redeemable, and there are no unconditional obligations in that (1) the Company must or may settle in a variable number of its equity shares and (2) the monetary value is predominantly (a) fixed, (b) varying with something other than the fair value of the Companys equity shares or (c) varying inversely in relation to the Companys equity shares. Because the Series B Preferred Stock contain certain embedded features that could affect the ultimate settlement of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company analyzed the instrument for embedded derivatives that require bifurcation. The Companys analysis began with determining whether the Series B Preferred Stock is more akin to equity or debt. The Company evaluated the following criteria/features in this determination: redemption, voting rights, collateral requirements, covenant provisions, creditor and liquidation rights, dividends, conversion rights and exchange rights. The Company determined that the preponderance of evidence suggests the Series B Preferred Stock was more akin to equity than to debt when evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of the entire Series B Preferred Stock, including the embedded features. The Company then evaluated the embedded features to determine whether their economic characteristics and risks were clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the Series B Preferred Stock. Since, the Series B Preferred Stock was determined to be more akin to equity than debt, and the underlying that causes the value of the embedded features to fluctuate would be the value of the Companys common stock, the embedded features were considered clearly and closely related to the Series B Preferred Stock. As a result, the embedded features would not need to be bifurcated from the Series B Preferred Stock. Any beneficial conversion features, related to the exercise of the Most Favored Nation exchange right or the application of the Mandatory Conversion provision, would be recognized upon the occurrence of the contingent events based on its intrinsic value at the commitment date. Accounting for the Series A Warrants The Company concluded the freestanding Series A Warrants were indexed to the Companys common stock and should be classified in stockholders equity, based on their relative fair value. Allocation of Proceeds of the Series B Private Placement on March 27 and 31, 2015 The $2,130,750 proceeds from the Series B Private Placement on March 27 and 31, 2015 were allocated to the Series B Preferred Stock and Series A Warrant instruments based on their relative fair values. The Series B Preferred Stock was valued on an as-if-converted basis based on the underlying common stock. The Series A Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average input at the time of issuance: expected term of 5.0 years based on their contractual life, volatility of 125% based on the Companys historical volatility and risk free rate of 1.4% based on the rate of the 5-years U.S. treasury bill. After allocation of the proceeds, the effective conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock was determined to be beneficial and, as a result, the Company recorded a non-cash deemed dividend of $1,067,491 equal to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature. The Series B Registration Rights Agreement In connection with the closing of the Series B Private Placement, the Company entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the A&R Series B Registration Rights Agreement) with the Series B Investors, in which the Company agreed to file a registration statement (the Registration Statement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants within 30 calendar days of the final closing date of March 31, 2015 (the Filing Date), and to have the registration statement declared effective within 120 calendar days of the Filing Date. If the Registration Statement has not been filed with the SEC on or before the Filing Date, the Company shall, on the business day immediately following the Filing Date, and each 15th day thereafter, make a payment to the Series B Investors as partial liquidated damages for such delay (together, the Late Registration Payments) equal to 2.0% of the purchase price paid for the Series B Preferred Stock then owned by the Series B Investors for the initial 15 day period and 1.0% of the purchase price for each subsequent 15 day period until the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC. Late Registration Payments will be prorated on a daily basis during each 15 day period and will be paid to the Series B Investors by wire transfer or check within five business days after the end of each 15 day period following the Filing Date. The Company filed the Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the SEC on April 10, 2015, and as a result no penalty was incurred. |
