Note 6

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit:

 

Common Stock

The Company’s common stock confers upon their holders the following rights:

 

  The right to participate and vote in the Company’s stockholder meetings, whether annual or special. Each share will entitle its holder, when attending and participating in the voting in person or via agent or letter, to one vote;
     
  The right to a share in the distribution of dividends, whether in cash or in the form of bonus shares, the distribution of assets or any other distribution pro rata to the par value of the shares held by them; and
     
  The right to a share in the distribution of the Company’s excess assets upon liquidation pro rata to the par value of the shares held by them.

 

Convertible Series A Preferred Stock under the First Capital Contribution Agreement

The terms of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock were governed by a certificate of designation (the “Series A Certificate of Designation”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on May 15, 2017. Pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,” but issued only 123,668 shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the Contribution Agreement. Each share of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from at the option of the holder thereof, into that number of shares of common stock determined by dividing $62.9575 by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is equal to $2.5183, subject to adjustment as described in the Series A Certificate of Designation. A total of 27,898 shares remained outstanding as of December 31, 2018, but were converted in January 2019 into 697,450 shares of the Company’s common stock based on the conversion rate that was in effect at that time. On February 26, 2019, the Series A Certificate of Designation was withdrawn.

  

Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock under the OFI Securities Purchase Agreement

The terms of the Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were governed by a certificate of designation (the “Series B Certificate of Designation”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on December 22, 2017, as supplemented by that certain supplemental agreement, dated April 20, 2018, between the Company and OFI (the “Supplemental Agreement”), which clarified certain voting and conversion limitations with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock in response to comments from the staff of NASDAQ. Pursuant to the Series B Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as “Series B Preferred Stock”. As more fully described below, the Company issued total of 3,825,000 shares of Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock during 2017 and 2018 in connection with a securities purchase agreement, dated December 22, 2017, between the Company and OFI (the “OFI Purchase Agreement”). On September 24, 2018, all shares of Series B Preferred Stock were cancelled in conjunction with the entry into the Remediation Agreement described below. All such shares have been converted into another series of the Company’s Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2018. On September 25, 2018, the Series B Certificate of Designation was withdrawn, and as a result, no shares of Series B Preferred stock are authorized.

  

Convertible Series C Preferred Stock

The terms of the Series C Preferred Stock were governed by a certificate of designation (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on September 24, 2018. Pursuant to the Series C Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 7,485,627 shares of its preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock. The Company issued 7,485,627 shares of Convertible Series C Preferred Stock in connection with the Remediation Agreement, Those shares were converted to common stock following approval of the Remediation Agreement by the stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting on November 29, 2018. On December 28, 2018, the Series C Certificate of Designation was withdrawn, and as a result, no shares of Series C Preferred stock are authorized.

 

Convertible Series D Preferred Stock

The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock were governed by a certificate of designation (the “Series D Certificate of Designation”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on September 24, 2018. Pursuant to the Series D Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 9,294,414 shares of its preferred stock as Series D Preferred Stock. The Company issued 6,525,182 shares of Convertible Series D Preferred Stock in connection with the Remediation Agreement. Those shares were converted to common stock following approval of the Remediation Agreement by the stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting on November 29, 2018. On December 28, 2018, the Series D Certificate of Designation was withdrawn, and as a result, no shares of Series D Preferred stock are authorized.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

On December 22, 2017, the Company had entered into the OFI Purchase Agreement with OFI, under which OFI could, but was not obligated to, invest up to $15,000 in the Company in a series of closings over a period prior to December 31, 2018, in exchange for which OFI would receive shares of the Company’s Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B Shares”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per share (the “Option”).

 

On December 22, 2017 (the “Initial Date”), the Company and OFI completed the first closing under the OFI Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which OFI exercised a portion of the Option and provided $1,500 to the Company in exchange for 1,500,000 Series B Shares. On January 24, 2018 (the “Second Date”), the Company and OFI completed a second closing under the OFI Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which OFI provided $2,225 to the Company in exchange for 2,225,000 Series B Shares.

 

Under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, since the Series B Shares had conditional redemption provisions which are outside of the control of the Company and also contained a deemed liquidation preference, the Series B Shares were classified as mezzanine financing at the Initial Date at the residual amount, which was the difference between the total proceeds received and the fair value of the Option. Subsequently, changes in the redemption value was accreted over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument using an appropriate methodology, usually the interest method. Changes in the redemption value were considered to be changes in accounting estimates. 

 

Under ASC 480, the aforementioned written call Option was considered freestanding, as the Company believed it was legally detachable and separately exercisable. As the option was exercisable for shares subject to possible redemption at the option of the holder, as of the Initial Date, the Option was measured at fair value and recorded as a non-current financial liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Excess of the initial value of the option liability over the proceeds received was charged immediately into the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as financing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2017. The Option was marked to market in each reporting period until it was exercised or expired, as earlier, when changes in the fair value of the Option were charged into statement of comprehensive income or loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded expenses in the total amount of $273 due to revaluation of Option to purchase Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock.

 

Under ASC 480, the aforementioned right granted to OFI to further invest in the Company represented a written call Option which was considered freestanding, as the Company believed it was legally detachable and separately exercisable. As the option was exercisable for shares subject to possible redemption at the option of the holder, as of the Initial Date, the Option was measured at fair value and recorded as a non-current financial liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Excess of the initial value of the option liability over the proceeds received was charged immediately into the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as financing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2017. The Option was marked to market in each reporting period until it was exercised or expired, as earlier, with changes in the fair value of the Option charged into the statement of comprehensive income or loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded expense in the total amount of $273 due to revaluation of Option to purchase Series B Shares.

 

In addition, at the Initial Date, the Company incurred de minimis direct and incremental issuance costs which were charged immediately into the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as finance expenses, as the written call Option was presented at fair value.

 

At the Initial Date, each Series B Share was convertible into 1.24789 shares of common stock valued at $1.00 per share. As a result, Beneficial Conversion Feature (the “BCF”) amounting to approximately $372 was measured assuming full conversion. However, the conversion of the Preferred Stock is subject to certain contingencies, which impact the timing and amount of the BCF. At the Initial Date which is also the commitment date, the Company should record a BCF for the Preferred Stock for any shares convertible at that time without requiring stockholder approval through the planned proxy statement. However, as no residual proceeds were allocable to the Series B Shares at the Initial Date, no BCF was recognized with respect to the first closing.

 

In conjunction with the Second Date, OFI partially exercised the written call option present in the OFI Purchase Agreement and therefore upon exercise, the pro-rata share of this liability amounting to $677 was reclassified in the condensed consolidated balance sheet from Option to purchase Series B Shares into Series B Shares, during the three months ended March 31, 2018. On the Second Date, each Series B Share (exclusive of dividends) was convertible into 1.24789 shares of common stock valued at $1.00 per share. Because of reclassification of the exercised written call option together with cash amount received, there was no additional BCF measured.

 

As a result of the reclassification of the exercised written call option, there was no additional BCF measured.

 

In the absence of voluntary conversion and assuming no breaches as described above under “Redemption,” the Series B Shares would have automatically converted on May 31, 2018. As such, accretion adjustments to the carrying amount of the Series B Shares to the automatic conversion date of May 31, 2018 are recorded as deemed dividends. However, at March 31, 2018, the Company did not obtain shareholder approval and therefore, the then outstanding Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock became redeemable at the option of OFI. Activity in the account Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock for the three months ended March 31, 2018, is outlined in the below table

 

    March 31, 2018  
    Unaudited  
       
Opening balance, January 1, 2018   $ 87  
Proceeds from issuance of Series B Shares     2,225  
Accretion of Series B Preferred Stock to redemption value     1,968  
Partial exercise of Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock written call option on the second date     677  
Dividend on Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock     79  
         
Closing balance, March 31, 2018   $ 5,036  
 

That Agreement has been supplemented and/or superseded by the Remediation Agreement entered into with OFI on September 24, 2018. As a result, the Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock has been withdrawn, and shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock were issued as a replacement.

 

Cancellation and Exchange Agreement

On April 20, 2018, the Company and OFI entered into a Cancellation and Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which OFI agreed to provide an additional $2,000 to the Company in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement, including, among other things, the cancellation of 95,770 shares of the Company’s Convertible Series A Preferred Stock held by OFI in exchange for 5,382,274 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the Exchange Agreement, closing of this additional investment, including cancellation discussed above, would occur promptly following the filing of a definitive information statement on Schedule 14C with the SEC and mailing the stockholders of the Company, and in any event within 3 days thereafter. However, on September 24, 2018, the Exchange Agreement was terminated by the Remediation Agreement.

 

Payout Notes and Stock Grant Agreement

Under the Contribution Agreement, amounts due to Dr. Dolev Rafaeli and Dennis M. McGrath under their employment agreements, as well as amounts due to Dr. Yoav Ben-Dror for his services as a board member and officer of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, were converted to convertible secured notes in the principal amounts of approximately $3.1 million, $1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, following approval from the Company’s stockholders on October 12, 2017 (the “Payout Notes”). The Payout Notes were due on October 12, 2018, carried a ten percent (10%) interest rate, payable monthly in arrears commencing on December 1, 2017, were secured by a security interest in all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a security agreement that the Company entered into with the Note Holders, and were convertible into shares of common stock.

 

On December 22, 2017, the Company entered into a Stock Grant Agreement with the Note Holders to (i) cause the early conversion of the Payout Notes into an aggregate of 5,628,291 shares of common stock (the “Payout Shares”), (ii) effectuate the release of all security interests associated with the Payout Notes, (iii) provide for the issuance of an aggregate of 1,857,336 additional shares of common stock to the Note Holders as consideration for the various agreements of the Note Holders contained in the Stock Grant Agreement (the “Additional Shares”), (iv) provide for certain cash payments to the Note Holders in amounts equal to the interest payments that would have been made to the Note Holders absent the conversion of the Payout Notes, (v) obtain the agreement of the Note Holders to provide certain support services to the Company, and (vi) obtain the conditional resignation of certain of the Note Holders from the board of directors. Accordingly, the Payout Notes were deemed paid in full.

  

Pursuant to the Stock Grant Agreement, the Company agreed to make 12 monthly payments on the first of each month commencing on January 1, 2018 in the amounts of approximately $21, $7 and $10 to Messrs. Rafaeli, McGrath, and Ben-Dror, respectively. Such cash payments were consideration for certain consulting services provided by the Note Holders specified in the Stock Grant Agreement. The Company was required to issue the Additional Shares promptly, but in any event within 10 days after the Company obtained stockholder approval of such issuance. Such stockholder approval was not obtained. However, the Stock Grant Agreement was terminated in connection with the Remediation Agreement.

 

Remediation Agreement

On September 24, 2018 (the “Exchange Date”), the Company entered into the Remediation Agreement with OFI and the Note Holders, pursuant to which inter alia the following have been determined -

 

1. The Stock Grant Agreement was terminated, the Payout Shares were cancelled, and the Company issued to the Note Holders an aggregate of 7,485,627 shares of newly-designated Series C Preferred Stock in exchange for 5,628,291 shares of common stock.
   
2. The OFI Purchase Agreement (subject to the survival of certain provisions identified in the Remediation Agreement), the Supplemental Agreement and the Exchange Agreement were terminated and 3,825,000 shares of Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock issued to OFI were cancelled and the Company issued to OFI 6,217,490 shares of newly-designated Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, in conjunction with the exchange of OFI’s existing Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock for Series D Preferred Stock, the option for OFI to purchase future Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock up to aggregate amount of $15 million has been cancelled but OFI agreed to purchase $100 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $0.65 per share on the last day of each month, commencing on September 30, 2018, until it had purchased an aggregate of $500 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock, provided that, upon closing of any material business combination involving the Company that is approved by OFI, OFI agreed to purchase an additional $1,500 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock at a price of $0.65 per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date that stockholder approval of the conversion of shares issued under Remediation Agreement had been obtained, instead of purchasing shares of Series D Preferred Stock, OFI agreed to purchase shares of common stock at a price of $0.65 per share. On September 28, 2018, a first closing under the Remediation Agreement was completed, pursuant to which OFI provided $100 to the Company in exchange for 153,846 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock. On October 31, 2018, a second closing under the Remediation Agreement was completed, pursuant to which OFI provided $100 to the Company in exchange for 153,846 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock. On November 29, 2018, a third closing under the Remediation Agreement was completed, pursuant to which OFI provided $100 to the Company in exchange for 153,846 shares of common stock. On December 31, 2018, OFI agreed, notwithstanding the investment schedule set forth in the Remediation Agreement, to provide the remaining funds to the Company, and the parties completed a final closing under the Remediation Agreement, pursuant to which OFI provided $1.6 million to the Company in exchange for 2,461,538 shares of common stock.  
   
3. The Company was required, as promptly as possible following the date of the Remediation Agreement (and in no event later than 30 days thereafter), to prepare and file a preliminary proxy statement relating to stockholder approval of the issuance of common stock upon conversion of all shares of Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock issued under the Remediation Agreement. The preliminary proxy statement was filed on September 27, 2018. The final proxy statement was filed on October 25, 2018 and mailed to the Company’s stockholders on or about October 31, 2018. A stockholder meeting to approve this matter was held on November 29, 2018, at which the stockholders approved to the Remediation Agreement. As a result, on November 29, 2018, all shares of Series D Preferred Stock issued to OFI were converted into 6,619,483 shares of common stock and all shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued to the Note Holders were converted into 7,485,627 shares of common stock.
   
4. On September 24, 2018, in connection with the Remediation Agreement, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with OFI and the Note Holders.

 

In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, since the Series C Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares had no conditional (outside of the control of the Company) or mandatory redemption provisions, the Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock were classified as part of the stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Based on such determination and due to the economic characteristics and risks of the Preferred Stock, based on their stated or implied substantive terms and features, Series C and Series D Preferred Stock were considered as more akin to equity than debt.

 

Accordingly, it was determined that the economic characteristics and the risks of the embedded conversion option to common stock and those of the Series C and Series D Preferred Stock themselves (the ‘host contract’) were clearly and closely related. As a result, the embedded conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated.

 

Also, as the Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are valued in excess of the common stock and since each share of Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock was contingently convertible into one share of common stock, it was determined that at the exchange date, the effective exercise price of the conversion feature (based on the effective conversion rate of the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock into common stock) was higher than the estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock (which was valued at $0.24 per share). Thus, it was determined that the conversion feature was not beneficial.

 

In addition, the Remediation Agreement with OFI constitutes a firm forward purchase contract for an amount of $500 at $0.65 per share and an additional contingent purchase commitment of $1,500 in the event of a material business combination. Based on its terms (the fixed share price and number of shares) it was determined that the forward contract meets the scope exception requirements for derivative treatment under ASC 815 and therefore it is classified as an equity.

 

At the Exchange Date, in conjunction with the Remediation Agreement, the Note Holders’ existing common stock that had been previously exchanged in consideration for issuance of Series C Preferred Stock, OFI’s existing Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were exchanged in consideration for issuance of Series D Preferred Stock and the remaining portion of the Option for OFI to purchase future Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock up to aggregate amount of $15 million had been cancelled for the future commitment of OFI to invest up to aggregate amount of $2,000.

 

If a preferred share has characteristics that cannot be reliably assessed using the cash flow model in ASC 470-50, it is evaluated using another quantitative model, such as the fair value model or based on an analysis of the significance of any contractual terms added, contractual terms removed, and changes to existing contractual terms. In such analysis the issuer considers, among others critical terms such as a change in the liquidation preference order/priority (including the determination whether the classification of the instrument has changed from mezzanine to equity or to liability vice versa), voting rights, or conversion ratio. In addition, the issuer considers the business purpose for the changes and how the changes may influence the economic decisions of the investor, if any. 

 

Restricted Stock

On June 20, 2018, the Company’s board of directors approved an employment agreement with the former Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 400,000 shares of common stock that will be vest over a 3-year period. One-third of the shares issued shall vest on each of the first anniversary and the two ensuing anniversaries of the date of execution of the employment agreement. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Chief Executive Officer shall fully vest in all of the shares if the Chief Executive Officer’s employment with the Company shall terminate upon the occurrence of a Change in Control as defined in the employment agreement. The closing price of the Company’s share at June 20, 2018 is $0.47 and therefore the overall expenses to be recorded amounted to $188. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded an expense of $29 as part of the general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Issuance of these shares was subject to stockholder approval of the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan which was obtained at the 2018 annual meeting on November 29, 2018. Upon the Company’s closing of the Gadsden Purchase Agreement on April 5, 2019 as described in Note 6, the restricted stock became fully vested.

 

Common Stock Options

On April 18, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), which provides for grants of restricted stock, stock options and other forms of incentive compensation to officers, employees, directors and consultants. The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock under the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan became effective upon its approval by the stockholders on November 29, 2018. The Company’s previous plans, the Amended and Restated 2000 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 2005 Equity Compensation Plan, are no longer active. As March 31, 2019, only 1,000 options remained outstanding from those plans.

 

A summary of stock option transactions under these plans during the three months ended March 31, 2019 are as follows:

 

      Number of Stock

(*) The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the deemed fair value of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the last day of the first quarter of 2019 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2019. This amount is impacted by the changes in the fair value of the Company’s shares.

 

The total equity-based compensation expense related to the Company’s equity-based awards, recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, total the amounts of $32 and $21, respectively.

 

As of March 31, 2019, there was $112 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards that based on their original vesting terms was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years. Following the completion of the Gadsden Purchase Agreement described in Note 8, such compensation will be accelerated.
