On February 8, 2011 the Company entered into a Series D Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Series D Agreement”) with Montaur and certain other strategic accredited investors (each, a “Series D Investor” and collectively, the “Series D Investors”) in connection with the Company’s private placement (the “Series D Financing”) of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series D Stock”) at a price per share of $10.00. For every $100,000 face value of Series D Stock purchased in the Series D Financing, the Series D Investor was issued (i) Series 1 warrants to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $15.00 per share (the “Series D-1 Warrants”), and (ii) Series 2 warrants to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $25.00 per share (the “Series D-2 Warrants” and, together with the Series D-1 Warrants, the “Series D Warrants”).

 

On February 8, 2011 there was a closing in connection with the Series D Agreement and the Company received cash proceeds of $2,500,000 for the purchase of 2,500,000 shares of Series D Stock. The Company issued 1,006,000 shares of Series D Stock in exchange for the extinguishment of an 8% Senior Promissory Note issued by the Company on January 5, 2011 in the principal amount of $1,000,000, plus interest accrued through February 1, 2011 in the amount of $6,000.

 

The Company issued an aggregate of 175,300 Series D-1 Warrants and 175,300 Series D-2 Warrants to the Series D Investors pursuant to the Series D Agreement. The Series D Warrants are immediately exercisable and were to expire on February 7, 2013; however, since the Series D Warrants were not exercised in full by February 7, 2013 by virtue of the application of a beneficial ownership “blocker”, the term of the Series D Warrants were extended for thirty (30) days past the date on which the beneficial ownership blocker is no longer applicable. An exercise under the Series D Warrants may not result in the holder beneficially owning more than 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of all of the Common Stock outstanding at the time; provided, however, that a holder may waive the foregoing provision upon 61 days’ advance written notice to the Company. The exercise price of these warrants is subject to adjustment for stock splits, business combinations or similar events.

 

In connection with the issuance of Series D Stock, the conversion feature of Series D Stock was considered beneficial, or “in the money”, at issuance due to a conversion rate that allows the investor to obtain the Common Stock at below market price. The Company recorded a deemed dividend on the beneficial conversion feature equal to the incremental fair value resulting from the reduction in the conversion rate of $1,975,211. This deemed dividend is included in the 2011 Consolidated Statement of Operations in arriving at the Net Loss Applicable to Common Shareholders.

 

In accordance with (i) the Certificate of Designation, Rights and Preferences of the Series B Stock (the “Series B Certificate”) and (ii) a letter agreement dated January 19, 2010 between the Company and the sole holder of the Series B Stock (the “Series B Holder”), the Company was obligated to use 25% of the gross proceeds from the Series D Financing to redeem the Series B Stock. On February 4, 2011, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter”) with the Series B Holder pursuant to which the Series B Holder waived the redemption of shares of the Series B Stock triggered by the Series D Financing.

 

On October 19, 2011, an investor converted 500,000 shares of Series D Stock into 50,000 shares of Common Stock.

 

On December 19, 2013, an investor converted 2,006,000 shares of Series D Stock into 200,600 shares of Common Stock.

 

Series E Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company has authorized 1,748,613 shares of Series E Stock, all of which were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2013. The Series E Stock was created on December 10, 2013 in connection with the private placement of common stock, preferred stock and warrants with certain Montaur-related entities (see Note 9 for description of this transaction).

 

Key terms of the Series E Stock are as follows:

 

·Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation, Preference and Rights of Series E Preferred Stock (the “Series E Certificate”), each share of Series E Stock is initially convertible into one share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations or similar events.
