Accounting for proceeds from the Series B convertible preferred stock financing

 

The net cash proceeds from the Series B convertible preferred stock financing were $1,975,000. The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing and second to the make-whole payments. As the assigned fair values were greater than the net cash proceeds from the transaction, the excess was treated as a “deemed dividend” for accounting purposes and was reported on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012 under the caption “Preferred Stock Dividend”. The calculation methodologies for the fair values of the derivative warrant liability are described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below. The fair values assigned to each component and the calculation of the amount of the deemed dividend are as follows:

 

     Accounting allocation of initial proceeds  
  Net proceeds          $1,975,000
  Derivative warrant liability fair value         (1,811,746)

The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing and second to the make-whole payments.

Accounting for proceeds from the Series D convertible preferred stock financing

 

The net cash proceeds from the Series D convertible preferred stock financing were $725,000. As the Company did not have sufficient authorized capital for the issuance of the shares underlying the Series D convertible preferred stock at the time of issuance, equity treatment was not permitted under GAAP. The Series D convertible preferred stock was classified as a derivative liability on the Company’s interim consolidated balance sheet as of the previous quarter ended January 31, 2013. Due to the redemption provision in the event that an increase in the Company’s authorized capital was not approved by the stockholders, the Series D convertible preferred stock was reported at that date at its face value of $750,000. Upon the stockholder approval of the increase in authorized capital on March 28, 2013, the Series D convertible preferred stock met the criteria for equity classification and was reclassified as equity at its then face value of $750,000.

 

The calculation methodologies for the fair value of the derivative warrant liability is described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below.

 

Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized 2,450 shares of Series E 9% Convertible Preferred Stock with a stated value of one thousand ($1,000) per share. Pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated June 17, 2013, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,225 shares of Series E convertible preferred stock, as well as accompanying warrants to purchase 40,833,335 shares of common stocks. An aggregate of 40,833,335 shares of the Company’s common stock are issuable upon conversion of the Series E convertible preferred stock which was issued at the initial closing.

 

Subject to certain ownership limitations, the convertible preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at an effective conversion price of $0.03 per share, and will accrue a 9% dividend until June 17, 2016 and, beginning on June 17, 2016 and on each one year anniversary thereafter, such dividend rate will increase by an additional 3%. The dividend is payable quarterly on September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30, beginning on June 30, 2013 and on each conversion date in cash, or at the Company’s option, in shares of common stock. In the event that the convertible preferred stock is converted prior to June 17, 2016, the Company will pay the holder of the converted preferred stock an amount equal to $270 per $1,000 of stated value of the convertible preferred stock, less the amount of all prior quarterly dividends paid on such converted preferred stock before the relevant conversion date. Such “make-whole payment” may be made in cash or, at the Company’s option, in shares of its common stock. In addition, beginning June 17, 2016, the Company will pay dividends on shares of preferred stock equal to (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) and in the same form as dividends (other than dividends in the form of common stock) actually paid on shares of the common stock when, and if such dividends are paid. The Company will incur a late fee of 18% per annum on unpaid dividends.

 

The conversion price of the convertible preferred stock is subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The conversion price will also be adjusted if the Company sells or grants any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then conversion price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by the Company pro rata to the holders of its common stock to the same extent as if such holders had converted all of their shares of convertible preferred stock. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the holders of convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive, upon conversion of their shares, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction.

 

The Company may become obligated to redeem the convertible preferred stock in cash upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, including the failure to provide an effective registration statement covering shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock, material breach of certain contractual obligations to the holders of the convertible preferred stock, the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, the occurrence of certain insolvency events relating to the Company, or the failure of the Company’s common stock to continue to be listed or quoted for trading on one or more specified United States securities exchanges or regulated quotation services. Upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, each holder of convertible preferred stock will have the option to redeem such holder’s shares of convertible preferred stock for a redemption price payable in shares of common stock or receive an increased dividend rate of 18% on all of such holder’s outstanding convertible preferred stock.

 

In conjunction with the issuance of the Series E convertible preferred stock, the Company also issued 40,833,335 warrants to the investors. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the warrants will be exercisable at any time after their date of issuance and on or before the fifth-year anniversary thereafter at an exercise price of $0.03 per share of common stock. The exercise price of the warrants and, in some cases, the number of shares issuable upon exercise, are subject to adjustment in the case of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, similar recapitalization transactions and certain pro-rata distributions to common stockholders. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise will also be adjusted if the Company sells or grants any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or rights to acquire, common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then exercise price, except in the event of certain exempt issuances. In addition, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive any securities or rights to acquire securities or property granted or issued by the Company pro rata to the holders of its common stock to the same extent as if such holders had exercised all of their warrants. In the event of a fundamental transaction, such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets and similar reorganizations or recapitalizations, the warrant holders will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of their warrants, any securities or other consideration received by the holders of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the fundamental transaction. These warrants have been classified as derivative liabilities and are described further in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities.

 

In addition, until the first anniversary of date of the securities purchase agreement, each investor may, in its sole determination, elect to purchase, severally and not jointly with the other investors, in one or more purchases, in the ratio of such investor's original subscription amount to the original aggregate subscription amount of all investors, additional units consisting of convertible preferred stock and warrants at a purchase price of $1,000 per unit with an aggregate subscription amount thereof of up to $1,225,000, which units will have terms identical to the units of convertible preferred stock and warrants issued in connection with the June 2013 closing. These additional investment rights of the investors have been classified as derivative liabilities and are described further in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities. 

 

As of July 31, 2013, 295 of the Series E convertible preferred stock had been converted to common stock. There were 9,833,334 shares of common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series E convertible preferred stock and 2,654,999 shares of common stock issued as “make-whole payments” on such conversions.

 

Accounting for proceeds from the Series E convertible preferred stock financing

 

The net cash proceeds from the Series E convertible preferred stock financing were $1,165,000. The proceeds from the financing were allocated first to the warrants that were issued in the financing, second to the additional investment rights associated with the financing and third to the make whole payments. As the assigned fair values were greater than the net cash proceeds from the transaction, the excess was treated as a “deemed dividend” for accounting purposes and is reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended July 31, 2013 under the caption “Preferred Stock Dividend”. The calculation methodologies for the fair values of the derivative warrant liability and the derivative additional investment rights liability are described in Note 10 – Derivative Liabilities below. The fair values assigned to each component and the calculation of the amount of the deemed dividend are as follows:

 

     Accounting allocation of initial proceeds    
  Net proceeds          $1,165,000
  Derivative warrant liability fair value         (1, 189,744)
  Derivative additional investment rights fair value    (1,264,683)
  Make whole payments liability  (330,750)
  Deemed dividend   $(1,620,177)

 

The initial “make-whole payments” of $330,750 on the Series E convertible preferred stock were accrued as of the date of the financing and the remaining balance of $251,100 (after conversions) are included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses (see Note 6) at July 31, 2013.
