CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE | NOTE 4 CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE In May and June 2014 (the May and June 2014 Notes), the Company issued 3 convertible promissory notes, each in the amount of $22,000. The Company received proceeds of $60,000 in the aggregate. The notes mature on their six month anniversary, bear interest at ten percent (10%) and contain a 9.1% original issue discount (OID). The OID is being amortized over the earlier of the conversion of the note or the maturity date, accordingly, the Company has included $6,000 of amortization in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014. The holders of the note can convert the notes into shares of common stock at any time from the date of issuance to maturity at $0.20 per share. In December 2014, the Company received conversion notices from the holders of the May and June 2014 Notes and accordingly, recorded the conversion of $66,000 of principal and $4,177 of accrued and unpaid interest of the three convertible promissory notes and 352,242 shares of common stock to be issued at a conversion price of $0.20 per share. The shares were certificated in January 2015. On June 3, 2014, the Board authorized the Company to enter into a Securities Purchase Agreement (SPA) with Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. (CVP). Pursuant to the SPA, the Company agreed to issue to CVP a Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,657,500 (the Company Note). On June 6, 2014, the Company executed the SPA with CVP, for the sale of the Company Note in the principal amount of up to $1,657,500 (which includes CVPs legal expenses in the amount of $7,500 and a $150,000 original issue discount) for $1,500,000, consisting of $500,000 paid in cash on June 11, 2014 (the Closing Date), two $250,000 secured promissory notes and two $250,000 promissory notes (the Investor Notes), aggregating $1,000,000, bearing interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The Investor Notes are due 30 months from the Closing Date and may be prepaid, without penalty. The Company has no obligation to pay CVP any amounts on any unfunded Investor Notes, which totals $875,000 as of December 31, 2014. Accordingly, the Company initially recorded $557,500 of the convertible promissory note as a liability, comprised of the $500,000 funded, $50,000 original issue discount and $7,500 for CVPs legal expenses. On October 15, 2014, November 17, 2014 and December 19, 2014 CVP funded $62,500, $62,500 and $35,000, respectively, and the Company increased the convertible promissory note by $176,000 in the aggregate including $16,000 of OID. The Company has also not recorded the $875,000 remaining balance of Investor Notes issued by CVP to the Company. The above OIDs of $66,000 were recorded as interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company Note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on the date that is 30 months after the Closing Date. The CVP Note may be converted at the option of the holder, on the date that is six (6) months from the Trading Date (defined in the Purchase Agreement as the date on which the Common Stock is first trading on an Eligible Market, but in any event the Company shall cause its Common Stock to be trading on an Eligible Market within nine (9) months of the Closing Date of June 11, 2014) or at any time thereafter at a conversion price of $0.1976. The conversion price is equal to $6,500,000 divided by 33,000,000 (the amount of fully diluted shares of Common Stock of the Company on the date the Company filed its Registration Statement). If the holder funds $1,500,000 and elects to convert the CVP Note into Common Stock, the number of shares issuable upon conversion will be 8,287,500. In the event the Company elects to prepay all or any portion of the Company Note, the Company is required to pay to CVP an amount in cash equal to 125% multiplied by the sum of all principal, interest and any other amounts owing. The Company determined that the conversion feature of the convertible note did not meet the criteria of an embedded derivative and therefore the conversion feature was not bi-furcated and accounted for as a derivative because the Company was a private company, there was no quoted price and no active market for the Companys common stock. Since the convertible note included an embedded conversion feature that did not qualify to be bi-furcated as a derivative, management evaluated this feature to determine whether it meets the definition of a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) within the scope of ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, and determined that a BCF existed. The Company recorded interest expense of $25,874 related to the BCF. The Company also issued a five year warrant to CVP to purchase the number of shares equal to $420,000 divided by 70% of the average of the three (3) lowest closing bid prices in the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion. As of December 31, 2014, based on the most recent sales price of the Companys common stock of $0.40 per share, with a discount of 30%, the Company estimated that CVP can purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.20 per share. Accounting Standard Codification ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging The portion of derivative liabilities related to outstanding warrants was valued using the Black-Scholes option using the following assumptions: Commitment Date Re-Measurement Date Expected dividends -0- -0- Expected volatility 197 % 189 % Expected term 5 years 4.5 years Risk free interest 1.70 % 1.29 % Derivative liability $577,100 $581,373 The Company amortized $123,978 of the Note discount to interest expense for the year ending December 31, 2014 and the carrying amount of the Company Note as of December 31, 2014, was $357,478, net of the unamortized discount of $376,022. As security for the Company Note, the Companys CEO and COO each pledged to CVP their 50 shares of Class A Preferred Stock (see Note 9).
