NOTE 10 — EQUITY
 
On April 22, 2014, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 5,265,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, at a purchase price to the public of $1.90 per share, for net proceeds to the Company, after deducting underwriter discounts and offering expenses, of $8,815,655. Roth Capital Partners and Feltl and Company acted as underwriters for the offering.
 
On June 11, 2014, the Board approved a resolution to amend the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, declaring said resolution to be advisable, and calling for the submission of the following resolution to the shareholders to authorize the Board to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock from 300,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares.
 
On August 1, 2014, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to register shares of the Company’s common stock for sale, giving the Company the opportunity to raise funding when considered appropriate at prices and on terms to be determined at the time of any such offerings. Pursuant to the instructions to Form S-3, the Company currently has the ability to sell shares under the shelf registration statement, during any 12-month period, in an amount less than or equal to one-third of the aggregate market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates. On August 21, 2014, the SEC declared this registration statement effective.
 
On September 22, 2014, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “$1M Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, or “Lincoln Park” pursuant to which we offered 500,000 shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park at a price of $2.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $961,000 net of expenses. The closing of the transaction contemplated by the $1M Purchase Agreement occurred on September 24, 2014. The Company issued the 500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-3. 
 
On September 19, 2014, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “$15M Purchase Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Lincoln Park. In consideration for entering into the transaction under the $15M Purchase Agreement, we issued 175,000 shares of our common stock to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee upon execution of the $15M Purchase Agreement. We recorded $346,000 as a prepaid expense based upon a stock price of $1.98 on the date of issuance. Lincoln Park also agreed to purchase up to $15,000,000 of our shares of common stock over the 24-month term of the $15M Purchase Agreement.
 
The $15M Purchase Agreement provides that, from time to time over the term of the $15M Purchase Agreement, on any business day, as often as every other business day, and at our sole discretion, we may require Lincoln Park to purchase up to 100,000 shares of our common stock (a “Regular Purchase”); provided, however, that (i) a Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 150,000 shares of our common stock provided that the closing sale price of our common stock is not below $2.00 on the purchase date, (ii) a Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 200,000 shares of our common stock provided that the closing sale price of our common stock is not below $2.50 on the purchase date and (iii) a Regular Purchase may be increased to up to 250,000 shares of our common stock provided that the closing sale price of our common stock is not below $3.00 on the purchase date; and provided, further, that the aggregate price of any Regular Purchase shall not exceed $1,000,000. We may not sell any shares of our common stock as a Regular Purchase on a date in which the closing sale price of our common stock is below $1.50. The purchase price for Regular Purchases shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the lowest sale price of our common stock on the purchase date and (ii) the average of the three (3) lowest closing sale prices of our common stock during the ten (10) business days prior to the purchase date, as reported on the NASDAQ Capital Market.
 
We also have the right, at our sole discretion, to require Lincoln Park to make an accelerated purchase on the business day following the purchase date of a Regular Purchase in an amount up to the lesser of (i) 200% of the number of shares of common stock purchased as a Regular Purchase and (ii) 30% of the trading volume of our common stock on such accelerated purchase date, provided that the closing price of our common stock equals or exceeds $1.50 on such accelerated purchase date, as reported on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The purchase price per share of common stock for any accelerated purchase will be equal to the lesser of (i) the closing sale price of our common stock on the accelerated purchase date and (ii) 95% of the volume weighted average price of our common stock on the accelerated purchase date.
