Preferred Stock

Preferred Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of September 30, 2021, we had 1,941,250 designated shares of preferred stock and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2020, we had 1,829,582 shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Series A-2 Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2020, there were 45 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock had a stated value of $7,500 per share (the “A-2 Stated Value”), a liquidation preference equal to the Series A-2 Stated Value, and was convertible at the holder’s election into common stock at a conversion price per share of $16.11. Therefore, each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock was convertible into 466 shares of common stock, for an aggregate of 20,954 shares of common stock.

The Series A-2 Preferred Stock was senior to all outstanding classes of the Company’s equity and was entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 5.0% per annum. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had recorded $4,000 in accrued dividends on the accompanying condensed consolidated Balance Sheets related to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock outstanding. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an additional $1,000 dividend was recorded.

On January 28, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with the holder of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock to convert the stated value of all outstanding shares of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, 45 shares, into 84,292 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a negotiated conversion price of $4.00 per share, after taking into consideration accrued and unpaid dividends. The incremental cost of inducing the conversion was approximately $300,000 and was treated similar to a preferred dividend, increasing the net loss attributable to common stockholders.

Series D and E Preferred Stock

In connection with the Oblong Industries acquisition, on October 1, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company issued an aggregate of 1,686,659 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and an aggregate of 49,967 restricted shares of Series D Preferred Stock (“Restricted Series D Preferred Stock”), the latter of which were subject to vesting over a two-year period following the Closing Date.

Pursuant to the terms of the Series D Certificate of Designations, each share of Series D Preferred Stock was entitled to receive an annual dividend equal to 6.0% of its then-existing Accrued Value per annum, commencing on the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock (or October 1, 2020). Prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock no dividends accrued on such stock. Dividends were cumulative and accrued daily in arrears. The accrued value of the Series D Preferred Stock was increased by the amount of such dividends from October 1, 2020 through the date of conversion as described below.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, 28,618 shares of Restricted Series D Preferred Stock were forfeited and 8,325 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were surrendered to cover the taxes on vesting shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, 81 shares of Restricted Series D Preferred Stock were forfeited and 855 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were surrendered to cover the taxes on vesting shares.

On October 1, 2019, Oblong entered into a Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement relating to the offer and sale by the Company of up to 131,579 shares of its Series E Preferred Stock at a price of $28.50 per share. The Company sold a total of 131,579 shares of Series E Preferred Stock for net proceeds of approximately $3,750,000. The 131,579 shares of Series E Preferred Stock had an aggregate accrued value of $3,750,000 and upon their conversion would convert at a conversion price of $2.85 per share into 1,315,790 common shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Series E Certificate of Designations, each share of Series E Preferred Stock was entitled to receive an annual dividend equal to 6.0% of its then-existing Accrued Value per annum, commencing on the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock (or October 1, 2019 or December 18, 2019, as applicable). Prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock no dividends accrued on such stock. Dividends were cumulative and accrue daily in arrears. The accrued value of the Series E Preferred Stock was increased by the amount of such dividends from October 1, 2020 through the date of conversion as described below.

The terms of the Company’s Series D and Series E Preferred Stock provided that such shares were automatically convertible into a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to the accrued value of the preferred shares (initially $28.50),

plus any accrued dividends thereon, divided by the conversion price (initially $2.85 per share, subject to specified adjustments) upon the completion of both (i) approval of such conversion by the Company’s stockholders entitled to vote thereon (which occurred on December 19, 2019); and (ii) the receipt of all required authorizations and approval of a new listing application for the Company following the Company’s October 2019 acquisition of Oblong Industries, Inc. from the NYSE American or any such other exchange upon which the Company’s securities are then listed for trading. The Company determined that this conversion condition was completed in its entirety, and the Series D and E Preferred Stock automatically converted to shares of Common Stock pursuant to their terms, effective upon the commencement of trading of the Company’s Common Stock on Nasdaq as described above, on February 12, 2021.

As of the date of conversion, the Company had 1,697,022 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 131,579 shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively. The outstanding shares of Series D and Series E Preferred stock were converted into 17,416,939 and 1,345,180 shares of Common Stock, respectively, after taking into consideration all accrued and unpaid dividends.

Following the conversion of the Series A-2, Series D, and Series E Preferred Stock, the Company no longer has shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
