Debt Disclosure [Text Block] |
On March 18, 2013, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 revolving Line of Credit (“Line of Credit”) with The Northern Trust Company guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Cornelis F. Wit. Mr. Wit receives 2.0% interest (approximately $9,500 per month) from the Company on the assets pledged for the Line of Credit. On December 18, 2013 the Company renewed the Line of Credit and increased the available balance to $4,000,000. On February 3, 2015 the Company renewed the Line of Credit and increased the available balance to $5,000,000. The Line of Credit matures on February 2, 2018 and carries a variable interest rate based on the prime rate. At March 31, 2016, $4,200,000 was outstanding on the Line of Credit at an interest rate of 2.5%. Our primary sources of working capital are funds from operations and borrowings under our revolving Line of Credit. In the event that the Line of Credit is called for any reason, Mr. Wit has pledged to replace the borrowing capacity under the Line of Credit with a promissory note that utilizes the same maturity date and interest rate as the Line of Credit. To satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek additional financing. There can be no assurance that any such funding will be available to us on favorable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available when needed, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our research and product development and marketing programs. If we are successful in obtaining additional financings, the terms of such financings may have the effect of diluting or adversely affecting the holdings or the rights of the holders of our common and preferred stock or result in increased interest expense in future periods. At March 31, 2016, the Company owed $1,262,500 in notes payable all of which are unsecured. The table below provides details as to the terms and conditions of the notes payable.
At December 31, 2015, the Company owed $812,500 in notes payable all of which were unsecured. The table below provides details as to the terms and conditions of the notes payable.
On February 29, 2016, the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $450,000 and warrants to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.25 per share with an expiration date of April 1, 2019 to our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Cornelis F. Wit (“Mr. Wit”), in exchange for accrued interest in the amount of $450,000. The note carries an interest rate of 12% per annum and has a maturity date of April 1, 2019. This issuance caused us to calculate and record a derivative liability for the warrant liability. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model. A value of $325,689 was calculated and allocated to the warrants and recorded as a liability to the issuance of the note payable. As a result of the liability we recorded a discount to the note payable. The carrying amount of the note at the time of issuance was therefore $124,311. The warrant liability (discount) will be amortized over the 37 month duration of the note payable. The Company will continue to perform a fair value calculation quarterly on the warrant liability and accordingly the warrant liability is increased or decreased based on the fair value calculation. The resulting increase or decrease is reflected in operations as an unrealized gain or loss on changes in derivative liabilities.
