NOTE 14- SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On May 12, 2014, the Company completed the sale of 270,000 shares of its newly designated 6.25% Non-Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate offering price of $6,750,000.  The 270,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were sold pursuant to the Company’s private placement of up to 480,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an offering price of $25.00 per share.  The Series B Preferred Stock was sold by the Company with the assistance of McDonald Partners, LLC, as placement agent, on a best efforts basis.   After payment of approximately $272,250 in placement fees to McDonald Partners, LLC and approximately $75,000 of other offering expenses, the Company’s net proceeds from its sale of the 270,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were approximately $6,402,750.

For each share of Series B Preferred Stock sold in the private placement, the Company also agreed to issue, at no additional charge, a warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase (i) 2.00 shares of common stock of the Company if the purchaser purchased less than $700,000  (28,000 shares) of Series B Preferred Stock in the private placement, or (ii) 3.25 shares of common stock if the purchaser purchased $700,000  (28,000 shares) or more of Series B Preferred Stock in the private placement.  Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 610,000 shares of common stock were issued by the Company to the purchasers of the 270,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock sold on May 12, 2014.  Subject to certain limitations, the Warrants are exercisable for a period of approximately five (5) years expiring on July 15, 2019, at a cash purchase price of $1.85 per share of common stock. 

The Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or under the securities laws of any state in reliance upon exemptions from registration thereunder, including the exemptions provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.  The Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants were sold solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Rule 501(a), and neither the Series B Preferred Stock or Warrants, nor any shares of common stock of the Company into which the Series B Preferred Stock may be converted or for which the Warrants may be exercised, may be resold for a period of at least six months from the date of issue without registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.  However, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights to the holders of the Warrants pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement entered into as of May 12, 2014, between the Company and each purchaser of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants in the private placement.
