For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability, we used the Black Scholes option valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Black Scholes valuation of the derivative liability at September 30, 2015 are as follows: Stock price on the valuation date $0.0048 Conversion price for the debt $0.0045 - $0.0122 Dividend yield 0.00% Years to maturity 1.00 - 1.44 Risk free rate .33% - .49% Expected volatility 107.51% - 168.65% The value of the derivative liability balance at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $15,146,829 and $9,476,605, respectively. These assumptions are subject to significant changes and market fluctuations from period to period; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liability will fluctuate from period to period and the fluctuation may be material. Based on the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the derivative liability at September 30, 2015 and assuming all lenders convert the notes payable at the September 30, 2015 conversion prices, the Company would have insufficient authorized shares of common stock to complete the debt conversions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had the following activity in its derivative liability account: Derivative liability at December 31, 2014 $9,476,605 Addition to liability for new debt issued 482,000 Elimination of liability on conversion (691,907) Change in fair value 5,880,131 Derivative liability at September 30, 2015 $15,146,829 The total gain on settlement of debt related to the conversion of notes payable into shares of our common stock was $5,660 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. |
