NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. 

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Grandparents.com, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a family-oriented social media company that through its website, www.grandparents.com, serves the age 50+ demographic market. The website offers activities, discussion groups, expert advice and newsletters that enrich the lives of grandparents by providing tools to foster connections among grandparents, parents, and grandchildren.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware in May 1996.

2. 

Going Concern and Proceeding Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code

The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $9.1 million and used approximately $5.8 million net in cash for operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $58.5 million and stockholders’ deficit of approximately $7.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Without additional capital from existing or new investors or further financing, the Company cannot continue to implement its business plan.

On April 14, 2017, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Grand Card, LLC (together, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief under the provisions of Chapter 11 of Title 11 of certain of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida, Miami Division (the "Bankruptcy Court"). During the pendency of these proceedings, the Company currently intends to continue operating its website as Debtors and debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Chapter 11 cases have been consolidated solely on an administrative basis and are pending as Case No. 17-14711.

On September 15, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "New Credit Agreement," and together with the original credit agreement, the "Loan Documents") with VB Funding, LLC (the "Lender") (see Note 6). The Lender has agreed to fund post-petition financing in an amount not to exceed $1,575,000 (the "DIP Loan"). On April 14, 2017, the Debtors, on an interim basis, sought a total of $225,750 for the first four weeks following the Company's Chapter 11 filing, to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Company. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, at the applicable non-default rate set forth in the Loan Documents. In the event of a default the DIP Loan shall bear interest at the default rate set forth in the Loan Documents.

The DIP Loan shall become due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) closing of a §363 sale of substantially all of the Debtors' assets; (ii) failure to adhere to the Approved Budget, (iii) failure to timely provide any of the Reconciliation Reports, when due, (iv) failure to adhere to the Sale Timeline, or (v) June 15, 2017 (the “Due Date”). As security for the DIP Loan the Lender shall be granted a valid, perfected, first priority priming lien on all real and personal property of the Debtors now owned or hereafter acquired and all other property of whatever kind and nature, in each case, that is pledged as collateral under any document, Court Orders, or any other order of the Bankruptcy Court in these Chapter 11 cases (the “Collateral”).

On April 21, 2017, the Company received approval from the Bankruptcy Court for key “first day” motions (the "Approved Motions") in the Chapter 11 cases, which will give the Company the resources and flexibility to fund on-going uninterrupted operations. The Approved Motions include permitting Grandparents.com to pay employee benefits and reimbursable expenses, granting immediate access, on an interim basis, to $44,598 under the DIP Loan from the petition date through April 28, 2017, authorizing Grandparents.com to use its existing cash management systems and bank accounts to cover future expenses including supplier payments, and authorizing the retention of legal and financial professionals to advise the Debtors on the bankruptcy proceedings and other professionals necessary to the operation of our business during the bankruptcy proceedings. From time to time, the Debtors may seek Bankruptcy Court approval for the retention of additional professionals.

The foregoing conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Grandparents.com, Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue, the useful lives of long-lived assets including property and equipment and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes, and contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no cash equivalents.

F-6

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported in the balance sheets net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates the allowance based on an analysis of specific clients, taking into consideration the age of past due accounts, the client’s payment history and an assessment of the client’s ability to pay. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost net of depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three (3) to seven (7) years. Incidental expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against operations. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of assets are capitalized. The Company reviews the valuation of fixed assets and the remaining economic lives annually and adjusts depreciation accordingly.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets, annually in the fourth quarter of the calendar year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. Events and circumstances that may indicate that an asset is impaired may include significant decreases in the market value of an asset, a change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, shifts in technology, loss of key management or personnel, changes in the Company’s operating model or strategy and competitive forces as well as other factors.

If events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and the expected undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value is recorded. Fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated expected future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk involved, available market prices or appraised values, depending on the nature of the assets.

The Company performed this assessment in fiscal 2016 and recorded an impairment charge of $63,465 related to certain older website development costs. The Company performed this assessment in fiscal 2015 and concluded there were no impairments (see Note 5).

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from arrangements with advertisers and third-parties, generally on the basis of impressions, at an agreed upon cost per thousand impressions (“CPM”). This revenue is recognized on a net basis in the period in which the impressions occur.

For commission revenue and other non-advertising revenue, revenue is recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition. The Company considers amounts to be earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of services has occurred, price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Advertising

The Company’s policy is to report advertising costs as an expense in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The total amounts charged to advertising expense were $17,512 and $28,945 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs).  The hierarchy consists of three levels:

●

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

F-7

●

Level 2 – Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

●

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash, short-term accounts receivable, redeemable preferred stock, accounts payable, a secured loan, and notes payable. The Company believes that the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and/or market interest rates.The convertible loan is entered into with a related party and therefore fair value is not readily determinable.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company follows ASC 718 (Stock Compensation) and 505-50 (Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees), which provide guidance in accounting for share-based awards exchanged for services rendered and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite service period.  We determine the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards granted to non-employees as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either of (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets and recognizes a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a future benefit on such deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in its income tax (benefit) provision in the accompanying statements of operations.

Generally, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for tax years prior to 2012 except as they relate to its net operating loss carryforwards.

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share are computed by dividing net earnings (loss) per common share by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share are computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock and the dilutive effect of securities that can be converted into common stock.

Reconciliations of the weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows:

	Years ended December 31,
	2016	2015
Basic EPS Shares outstanding (weighted average common shares)	152,733,063	131,855,064
Effect of Dilutive Securities	-	-
Diluted EPS Shares outstanding	152,733,063	131,855,064

Dilutive securities consist of unexercised stock options and warrants, the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock. The inclusion of such dilutive securities in the computation of earnings per share would have been antidilutive and have therefore been excluded. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the numbers of excluded dilutive securities were 1,946,402,086 and 154,836,675, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Classified as ASC 606, on revenue recognition. The new standard provides for a single five-step model to be applied to all revenue contracts with customers as well as requires additional financial statement disclosures that will enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows relating to customer contracts. Companies have an option to use either a retrospective approach or cumulative effect adjustment approach to implement the standard. For public entities, ASC 606 as amended is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). The new standard was intended to provide guidance in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Because there was no current guidance in GAAP, the amendments were expected to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. For public entities, this ASU is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption was permitted. The Company has adopted this standard as of December 31, 2016.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The new standard was intended to provide improvements to employee share-based payment accounting by simplifying areas of GAAP related to this topic. The areas for simplification in this update involved several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public entities, this ASU is effective for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption was permitted provided that all of the amendments were adopted in the same period. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance, ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). The new guidance is intended to reduce diversity in practice across all industries in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard identifies eight issues and early adoption is permitted provided that all of the amendments are adopted in the same period. For public entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, all of which are finite-lived, consisted of the following at December 31, 2016 and 2015:

	Estimated Useful	December 31,	December 31,
	Lives (in Years)	2016	2015

Less: accumulated amortization		(785,650)	(645,374)
Intangible assets, net		$500,000	$882,188

F-9

During December 2016 when we performed an impairment assessment, we determined that indicators of impairment existed for certain website development costs of $241,912 related to the Grand Card. As a result the Company wrote off those assets along with accumulated amortization of $178,447 and recognized an impairment expense of $63,465 at December 31, 2016. The fair values of the remaining assets exceed their book values and the Company determined that the estimated remaining lives of those assets are appropriate.

During 2015, the Company performed an impairment assessment and concluded there were no impairments.

Amortization expense related to finite lived intangible assets amounted to $318,722 and $389,918 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The future amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years related to all finite lived intangible assets that are currently recorded in the balance sheets is estimated to be as follows at December 31, 2016:

For the Years Ending December 31,
2017	$250,000
2018	250,000
2019	-

Convertible Loan – July 2015 Convertible Loan

On July 8, 2015, the Company and VB Funding, LLC (“VB Lender”) entered into a credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) which provided for a multi-draw term loan credit facility (the “VB Loan”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $8,000,000. The full amount of the VB Loan was advanced in two disbursements, with the initial amount of $5,000,000 (which included a $1,000,000 amount previously funded on May 18, 2015 pursuant to a bridge loan from VB Lender) disbursed by VB Lender at the time of closing of the Credit Agreement. The second disbursement was on December 31, 2015. The VB Loan was used to fund ongoing operations and to repay then outstanding indebtedness. The Credit Agreement was replaced by the New Credit Agreement on September 15, 2016.

Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to certain customary limitations including the ability to incur additional debt, make certain investments and acquisitions, and make certain restricted payments, including stock repurchases and dividends. The New Credit Agreement contained usual and customary events of default, the occurrence of which could have led to an acceleration of the Company’s obligations thereunder.

F-10

Outstanding indebtedness under the VB Loan could have been voluntarily prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The indebtedness under the VB Loan was due July 8, 2025 with interest at an aggregate of 7.5% per annum, 2.5% of which was payable in cash and 5.0% was payable in-kind as additional principal. As of September 15, 2016, all cash interest has been paid for the VB Loan and $425,083 of payment-in-kind interest has been added to the VB Loan principal. The VB Loan was secured by a security interest in the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ assets and each such subsidiary guaranteed the repayment of the VB Loan. VB Lender had the right to convert the outstanding balance of the VB Loan into shares of common stock of the Company, at a conversion price per share equal to $0.20 which gave rise to a beneficial conversion feature having a relative fair market value of $1,950,000 as of July 8, 2015. This beneficial conversion feature value was recorded as a discount to the VB Loan and was amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan. In connection with the initial disbursement, VB Lender received a ten-year warrant to purchase 12.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. As of July 8, 2015, the warrant had a relative fair market value of $1,700,000 and was recorded as a debt discount. In connection with the second disbursement, VB Lender received a ten-year warrant to purchase 7.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The warrant had a relative fair market value of $465,146 and was recorded as a debt discount. There was no beneficial conversion feature in connection with the second disbursement.

Term Secured Loan – September 2016 Secured Loan

On September 15, 2016, the Company and VB Lender entered into the New Credit Agreement, which amended and restated the Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement has a principal balance equal to the outstanding balance under the VB Loan and provided for two additional disbursements in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,950,000 (collectively, the “New VB Loan”). The first disbursement was advanced on September 15, 2016 in the amount of $950,000 and a second disbursement may be made in the amount of $2,000,000 when certain conditions are satisfied.

Outstanding indebtedness under the New VB Loan may be voluntarily prepaid at any time, prior to the maturity date. The indebtedness under the New VB Loan matures on October 1, 2031 and bears interest at the following rates per annum, payable in cash on a quarterly basis: 1% for the first year of the New VB Loan, 2% for the second year, 3% for the third year, 12% for the fourth year and 15% thereafter. Interest is no longer payable in-kind as additional principal on the New VB Loan. At December 31, 2016, outstanding indebtedness under the New VB Loan was $9,375,083 plus accrued interest of $311,276.

The New VB Loan is secured by a security interest in the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ assets and the subsidiaries guaranteed the repayment of the New VB Loan. The Company is subject to certain customary limitations including the ability to incur additional debt, make certain investments and acquisitions, and make certain restricted payments, including stock repurchases and dividends. The New Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default, the occurrence of which can lead to an acceleration of the Company’s obligation thereunder.

The New VB Loan has no convertible feature so it is not convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

In accordance with ASC 470-60 this refinancing was considered a troubled debt restructuring with a modification of terms. As a result, the unamortized discount of $4,473,147 and unamortized debt issue costs of $275,885 from the VB Loan were carried forward to be amortized using the effective interest method for the New VB Loan. On September 15, 2016, the Company also sold to VB Lender 70,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $0.015, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,050,000. Because the fair value on the date of purchase was $2,100,000, the difference of $1,050,000 was recorded as an additional equity discount on the New VB Loan and is being amortized over the life of the loan using the effective interest rate method. Any new fees paid to third parties in connection with the New VB Loan were expensed as required.

The Company intends to use borrowings under the New Credit Agreement to fund the operations of the Company and to pay fees and expenses relating to the New Credit Agreement and related transactions.

As discussed in Note 2, on April 14, 2017, the Company filed voluntary petitions for relief under the Bankruptcy Code. This occurrence constituted an event of default under the New Credit Agreement and VB Lender has the right to declare all outstanding amounts immediately due and payable. Accordingly, all amounts outstanding at December 31, 2016 have been classified as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs in the amount of approximately $5.3 million will be accelerated in 2017 due to the aforementioned bankruptcy filing. 

In connection with the bankruptcy filing, the Lender has agreed to fund the DIP Loan in an amount not to exceed $1,575,000. Interest is payable monthly, in arrears, at the applicable non-default rate set forth in the Loan Documents. In the event of a default the DIP Loan shall bear interest at the default rate set forth in the Loan Documents.

The DIP Loan shall become due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) closing of a §363 sale of substantially all of the Debtorsí assets; (ii) failure to adhere to the Approved Budget, (iii) failure to timely provide any of the Reconciliation Reports, when due, (iv) failure to adhere to the Sale Timeline, or (v) June 15, 2017. As security for the DIP Loan the Lender shall be granted a valid, perfected, first priority priming lien on all real and personal property of the Debtors now owned or hereafter acquired and all other property of whatever kind and nature, in each case, that is pledged as Collateral under any document, Court Orders, or any other order of the Bankruptcy Court in these Chapter 11 cases.

Notes Payable

In addition to the New VB Loan described above, we have certain unsecured indebtedness, primarily promissory notes outstanding in favor of Mr. Leber, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and a former member of the board of directors, in the principal amount of $78,543 (the “Leber Note”), Meadows Capital, LLC, an entity controlled by Dr. Cohen, a former member of the Company’s board of directors, in the principal amount of $308,914 (the “Meadows Note”) and BJS Squared, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Leber, in the principal amount of $612,500 (“BJS Squared Note”). Meadows Capital, LLC, has a 50% interest in the BJS Squared Note. These promissory notes reflect indebtedness assumed by us in connection with a merger in February 2012. The Meadows Note and the BJS Squared Note accrue interest at the rate of 5% per annum and mature upon the earlier of (i) the Company having EBITDA of at least $2,500,000 as reflected on its quarterly or annual financial statements filed with the SEC, or (ii) the Company closing a financing with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $10,000,000. On September 15, 2016, the Leber Note was modified so that no interest accrues on the Leber Note after September 1, 2016 and it matures upon the Company achieving fiscal year net income of at least $5,000,000. The Leber Note remains subordinate in right of payment to the Meadows Note and the New VB Loan.

Total interest expense, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 attributable to amortization of debt discount related to warrants and amortization of debt issuance costs was $780,970and $377,908, respectively.

Total interest expense, charged to operations amounted to $1,369,175 and $645,898 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The estimated future principal maturities related to all notes payable and long-term loan obligations excluding debt discount was as follows at December 31, 2016:

For the Years Ending December 31,
Contingent	$999,957
2031 (1)	9,375,083
	$10,375,040

(1) 

The bankruptcy filing is an event of default under the loan agreement and as such, the New VB Loan has been classified as a current liability.

Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

During 2015, the Company issued 24,090 shares of its common stock to a consultant in exchange for services performed for the Company. The aggregate fair value of the shares issued to the consultant was $5,541, which was expensed in 2015.

During 2015, the Company issued 20,000 shares of its common stock in connection with the cashless exercise of 70,000 warrants issued in 2013 for advisory services.

During 2015, the Company sold, in private transactions, an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $700,000. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at exercise prices of $0.25-$0.35 per share, subject to customary adjustments.

During 2016, the Company sold, in a single transaction, an aggregate of 70,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to VB Lender at a price per share of $.015 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $1,050,000. Because the fair value on the date of purchase was $2,100,000, the difference of $1,050,000 was recorded as equity discount on the New VB Loan and is being amortized over the life of the New VB Loan using the effective interest method.

Series C Redeemable Convertible 7.5% Preferred Stock

On September 29, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Series C Preferred Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Series C Preferred Purchasers”) and raised gross proceeds of $1,750,000, including the conversion by Mel Harris, a former member of the Company’s board of directors, security holder and advisor to the Company, of the $450,000 principal amount of his convertible promissory note. Under the terms of the Series C Preferred Agreement, the Series C Preferred Purchasers purchased an aggregate amount of 875,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") at a $2.00 per share purchase price. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has a stated value of $2.00 (the “Stated Value”) and is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, into ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Conversion Shares”) at a conversion price of $0.20 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to customary adjustments, which gave rise to a beneficial conversion feature.

F-12

In addition, the Series C Preferred Purchasers received warrants (the “Series C Preferred Warrants”) representing the right to acquire an aggregate of 4,375,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share (the “Series C Preferred Warrant Shares”), subject to customary adjustments, for a period of ten (10) years from the date of issuance. Under certain circumstances, the holder of the Series C Preferred Warrant may elect to exercise the warrant through a cashless exercise (See Note 9).

Under the Series C Preferred Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering the resale of the Conversion Shares and Series C Preferred Warrant Shares on subsequent registration statements filed by the Company, subject to certain exceptions. This registration right is subject in priority, in all respects, to the obligations of the Company under the New Credit Agreement between the Company and VB Lender (See Note 6).

Additionally, the Company granted piggyback registration rights to the Series C Preferred Purchasers in connection with the Conversion Shares and Series C Preferred Warrant Shares on subsequent registration statements filed by Company, subject to certain exceptions.

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock earns dividends at the rate of 7.5% of the Stated Value, 2.5% of which dividend is payable in cash, and 5.0% will be payable in the form of Common Stock, on a quarterly basis, at $0.20 per share. Accrued dividends are recorded as a liability in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2016, cumulative unpaid dividends of $109,375 have been accrued for 546,875 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share. Accrued and unpaid dividends do not bear interest.

The Series C Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference over common stock and voting rights equal to the number determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price then in effect. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of the Company’s common stock as a single class.

The Company may redeem the Series C Preferred Stock at any time, at a price equal to the Stated Value per share plus any unpaid dividends. Alternatively, upon the election of the holder, the Company will convert shares of the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company is required to redeem all remaining Series C Preferred Stock on September 29, 2025, the tenth anniversary of the original issue date.

The gross proceeds of $1,750,000 received were reduced by issuance costs incurred of $76,423 resulting in net proceeds of $1,673,577 for the Series C Preferred Stock.

In accordance with ASC 480-10, the Company classified the Series C Preferred Stock in temporary equity. The relative fair market value of the Preferred Warrants was $603,608 and the fair market value of the beneficial conversion feature was $855,031 totaling an aggregate discount of $1,458,639 which was recorded to additional paid-in capital and will be amortized over the ten-year term of the Series C Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company amortized $5,709 and $1,974 respectively, of the discount.

Series D Redeemable Convertible 12% Preferred Stock

Simultaneously with the entry into the New Credit Agreement, the Company and VB Lender also entered into a securities purchase agreement which provided VB Lender the right to purchase a total of 1,500,000 shares of Series D Convertible 12% Preferred Stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”) for a total price of $1,000,000, convertible into an aggregate of 1,833,000,000 shares of common stock. The conditions to the closing of the sale of shares of Series D Preferred Stock included approval by the shareholders of an amendment to the certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to 2,156,500,000 shares, and the filing of a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series D Preferred Stock (the “Certificate”). The Certificate specified that from and after the date of the issuance of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock, dividends at the rate per annum of $0.08 per share (which represents 12% per annum) would accrue on such shares. Dividends accrue from day to day and will be cumulative, provided, however, that except as provided for in certain circumstances, dividends will only be payable when, as, and if declared by the board of directors of the Company and the Company will be under no obligation to pay such accrued dividends.

F-13

As an additional condition to closing, VB Lender required that the holders of Series C Preferred Stock would have the option to convert their shares of Series C Preferred Stock into shares of the Company's common stock at a discounted rate of $0.05 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock was issued in 2015 for $2.00 per preferred share, with an initial conversion price of $0.20 per common share.  This option to convert therefore represented a discount of $0.15 per common share from the original conversion price. No conversions were effected during the time of this conversion price reduction, which ended on January 21, 2017. As a result, all 875,000 shares of Series C Preferred remain outstanding as of the date of this filing. 

On December 21, 2016, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series D Convertible 12% Preferred Stock (the “Series D COD”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware setting forth the rights, powers and preferences of the Series D Preferred Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock has a stated value of $0.666667 (the “Stated D Value”). Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, into 1,222 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment. The holders of the Series D Preferred Stock at any time may redeem any portion of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, at a price equal to the Stated D Value per share plus any unpaid dividends. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock earns dividends at the rate of 12% of the Stated D Value plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends thereon (the “Accruing Dividends”).  The Accruing Dividends are cumulative and accrue on a per annum basis, whether or not declared and whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of dividends, and are payable in cash on a quarterly basis.  The Series D Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference over Common Stock, and voting rights equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series D Preferred Stock is convertible. Holders vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Holders are entitled to elect by majority vote (with each share of Series D Preferred Stock entitled to one vote), voting as a separate class, five of the seven members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The closing of the sale of Series D Preferred Stock occurred on December 21, 2016.

New issuance costs of $135,000 paid to third parties in connection with the transaction were expensed since the transaction was a continuation of the troubled debt restructuring, which began in September 2016.

Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation

On November 29, 2016, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to increase the number of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share by 1,806,500,000, from 350,000,000 to 2,156,500,000 shares (the “Certificate of Amendment”).

Stock Based Compensation

In February 2012, the Company adopted the Grandparents.com, Inc. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as amended, which provides for 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be eligible for issuance to employees, officers, directors, consultants, agents, advisors, and independent contractors who provide services to the Company under the Plan.

During 2015, the Company granted options to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock which expire five years from the date of grant to purchase shares of common stock under the Plan to a consultant. The options had an exercise price of $0.21 per share and a grant date fair value of $0.18 per option. The exercise price per share and stock price per share on the date of grant were equal. The options vested immediately, had a fair market value of $44,450 and were recorded as an expense in 2015.

During 2015, the Company granted options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of common stock, which expire ten years from the date of grant, under the Plan to employees. The options had exercise prices of $0.18 and $0.21 per share and grant date fair values of $0.18 and $0.20 per option. The exercise price per share and stock price per share on the date of grant were equal. The vesting period for 200,000 options is one year and for 1,000,000 options is three years.

During 2015, 5,312,500 options were forfeited and 190,000 options expired unexercised.

During 2016, the Company granted options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock, which expire five years from the date of grant, under the Plan to one employee. The options had an exercise price of $0.30 per share and a grant date fair values of $0.08 per option. The exercise price per share was greater than the stock price per share on the date of grant and the vesting period is one year.

During 2016, the Company granted options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock, which expire ten years from the date of grant, under the Plan to a consultant. The options had an exercise price of $0.30 per share and a grant date fair value of $0.04 per option. The exercise price per share was greater than the stock price per share on the date of grant. The options vested immediately, had a fair market value of $31,600 and were recorded as an expense in 2016. During 2016, 620,000 options expired unexercised.

The fair value of each option granted since December 31, 2014 was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility was estimated using the volatility of the Company’s stock price. The expected life of the options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and is derived from historical terms.

In April 2013, the Company committed to issuing Starr Indemnity & Liability Company (“Starr”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Starr International Company, Inc., a warrant to acquire up to 21,438,954 shares of its common stock, subject to certain customary adjustments which vests one-fourth (1/4th) of the warrant shares upon issuance and the remaining portion of the warrant shares in three equal annual installments on March 1, 2014, 2015 and 2016, provided, however, that the warrant shall automatically cease to vest upon termination or expiration of the Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Starr Agreement”) with Starr.

Income Taxes

The income tax expense reconciled to the tax expense computed at the statutory rate was approximately as follows during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively:

	2016	2015
Tax on income (loss) before income tax	(34.0)%	(34.0)%
Effect of other permanent differences	0.1%	0%
Other	0.0%	0.7%

Prior year return versus provision	0.0%	11.8%
Net change in valuation allowance	44.4%	56.9%
Income tax provision	-	-

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s net deferred tax assets are approximately as follows at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively:

	2016	2015
Net deferred tax asset:
Net operating loss carryforward	$606,732	$13,278,577

F-17

Pursuant to Code Sec. 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as a result of a cumulative change in stock ownership of more than 50% over a three-year period. The Company underwent such a change as a result of the December 2016 Series D Preferred Stock transaction (see Note 7) and consequently, the utilization of a significant portion of the net operating loss carryforwards is subject to certain limitations. Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards may be limited to approximately $34,000 per year over the remaining carryforward period. The deferred tax assets for the net operating losses not expected to be utilized due to this limitation have been written-off.

After giving effect to the reduction in the net operating loss carryforwards due to the charge in ownership, as of December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $1.3 million in net operating loss carryforwards which expire beginning in 2017 through 2036.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets, as the Company’s management has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not generate sufficient future taxable income to be able to utilize these deferred assets

The Company files tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states.  At December 31, 2016, federal state tax returns remained open for Internal Revenue Service review for tax years after 2012. There were no federal or state income tax audits being conducted as of December 31, 2016.

The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.

Interest and penalties related to liabilities for uncertain tax positions will be charged to interest and operating expenses, respectively.
