Subordinated Secured Convertible Note and Exchange and Right to Shares Agreement Cape One Master Fund II LP On July 23, 2014, the Company and Cape One Master Fund II LLP agreed to exchange the Subordinated Secured Convertible Note and related accrued and unpaid interest totaling a combined $379,624 in exchange for 6,666,667 reserved shares of the Companys common stock. The Company and Cape One agreed that a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% shall be maintained at all times as to the number of the shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the common stock issuable under this agreement. Cape One also agreed to a Lockup provision in the agreement that specifies that Cape One will not sell, transfer or hypothecate any of the reserved shares until Alpha Capital Anstalt has received $3,500,000 from the proceeds of sales of shares obtained upon conversion of notes issued by the Company and held by Alpha as of the date of this agreement. Upon expiration of the Lockup period, Cape One shall be allowed to sell the lesser of (i) 5% of the daily trading volume of the Companys common stock or, (ii) 10% of the reserved shares in any calendar month. The Company estimated the total enterprise value based upon a combination of the trending of the firm value from December 2006 to September 2015, market comparables and the market value of the Companys stock considering company specific factors including the changes in forward estimated revenues and market factors. Once the enterprise value was determined an option pricing model was used to allocate the enterprise value to these 6,666,667 share rights and other securities in the Companys capital structure. As of September 30, 2014 the fair value of these 6,666,667 share rights was estimated at $54,289 and the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $325,335 during the three months ended September 30, 2014 based on the excess of value of the instruments settled over the estimated fair value of the 6,666,667 share rights. As of September 30, 2015 the fair value of these 6,666,667 share rights was estimated at $174,086 based on the excess of the value of the instruments settled over the estimated fair market value of the share rights granted. The change in fair market value of this rights liability (of $385,203 since December 31, 2014) has been reflected in Additional Paid In Capital. As a result of the Company not having sufficient authorized shares to satisfy the issuance of these 6,666,667 share rights, conversion of all outstanding convertible debt, convertible preferred stock, warrants and options, the value of these share rights has been presented in temporary equity classification on the balance sheets. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company entered into forbearance agreements with Cape One which extended the due dates of certain outstanding notes and accrued interest. As consideration for this forbearance, the lender increased its principal balance outstanding by $40,000. This amount was added to the principal balance of the Initial Notes and the Company recognized a loss on modification of debt of $40,000 in the nine month period ended September 30, 2014.
