PART I

Item 1. Business.

GENERAL

We are an innovator and provider of light emitting diode (“LED”) lighting technology. We design, develop, manufacture and market advanced illumination products that use LEDs as their exclusive light source. Our product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) used in existing light fixtures as well as purpose-built LED-based luminaires (light fixtures). Our lamps and luminaires are used for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications. We have also developed LED lighting technology whose light and color are tuned to achieve specific biological effects. We believe our proprietary technology, unique designs and key relationships throughout the LED lighting supply chain position us favorably to capitalize on the expanding acceptance of LEDs as a lighting source.

Our in-house design of power supplies, thermal management solutions and optical systems, along with our detailed specification of the packaged LEDs incorporated into our products, provides us with a distinctive ability to manage the interrelationships between components and subsystems. This system-based approach enables us to provide a broad range of products that deliver a high quality combination of lighting efficacy and reliability.

Our customers include retailers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) such as The Home Depot, Inc. (“The Home Depot”) and Standard Products, Inc. (“Standard Products”), which sell our products on a co-branded or private label basis. Notably, we are The Home Depot’s preferred product partner for LED retrofit lamps, which are currently sold under its EcoSmart® brand. Large retail, hospitality and other corporate customers also purchase products from us directly. In addition, our luminaires are installed in large-scale infrastructure projects throughout the world.

We are seeking to lead the convergence of science and light to improve the environment as well as human health and wellbeing. Our lighting technology is designed to consume less electricity for each unit of light produced and we continue to improve our product packaging and lifespan to use fewer materials in the production and distribution of our lamps and luminaires.

CORPORATE INFORMATION AND HISTORY

We were incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1988. Unless expressly indicated or the context requires otherwise, the terms “Lighting Science Group,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” in this Form 10-K refer to Lighting Science Group Corporation or, as applicable, its predecessor entities and, where appropriate, its wholly owned subsidiaries. Our principal executive offices are located at 1830 Penn Street, Melbourne, Florida 32901, and our telephone number is (321) 779-5520. Our website address is www.lsgc.com. This reference to our website is an inactive textual reference only and is not a hyperlink. The contents of our website are not part of this Form 10-K.

We are controlled by affiliates of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P., (“Pegasus Capital”), a U.S.-based private equity fund manager that provides capital and strategic solutions to middle market companies across a variety of industries. Historically, Pegasus Capital has invested in our capital stock through LSGC Holdings, LLC (“LSGC Holdings”), Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”), LED Holdings, LLC (“LED Holdings”), LSGC Holdings II LLC (“Holdings II”), PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA Holdings”) and LSGC Holdings III LLC (“Holdings III” and collectively with Pegasus Capital, Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings, Holdings II, PCA Holdings and their affiliates, “Pegasus”). Pegasus is the Company’s controlling stockholder.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

According to a 2014 report published by the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE”), it is estimated that LED sales in the U.S. lighting market will increase to approximately 48% in 2020 and 84% in 2030. Further, LED lighting is predicted to account for a majority of installations by 2022 and 88% of all lumen-hours being produced for general illumination in the United States in 2030. The LED lighting market is also expected to grow outside of the United States.

A 2013 industry report estimated that in North America, Europe and Asia, the share of the lighting market represented by LEDs on a dollar value basis, will rise to around 45% in 2016 and around 70% in 2020, including both new fixture installations and light source replacements, and to around 35% in 2016 and between 55% and 60% in 2020 in Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.

LEDs are regarded as the most promising technology for reducing energy consumption, given that, according to a DOE report, lighting accounted for approximately 18% of all U.S. electricity consumption in 2013. We believe that the continuing improvements in LED product efficacy and light quality, coupled with reductions in the purchase price, will further reduce the total cost of ownership and accelerate adoption of LEDs for general illumination purposes. Other catalysts expected to play a significant role in adoption are: (i) consumer and governmental focus on energy efficiency and environmental sustainability; (ii) demand for enhanced lighting functionality; (iii) design differentiation enabled by the smaller size, lower heat output, longer lifetime, dimmability, and wireless controllability; (iv) financial incentives for energy efficient technologies from government and utility rebates; and (v) government regulations restricting incandescent bulb sales in the United States and the European Union.

OUR PRODUCTS

We have an extensive product portfolio with three distinct offerings—replacement lamps, luminaires and biological lighting. The products in each of these offerings achieve a unique combination of scientific innovation, lumen distribution and energy efficiency. We enhanced our lamp and luminaire offerings with the introduction of several new products during 2014 that we anticipate will continue to provide improved performance through the implementation of more effective components and form factors. We have introduced several new products in 2015, including the Free LED™ solar roadway system, our Vintage™ Filament Series of LED lamps, our Sleepy Baby™ LED lamp and a new mini-roadway luminaire.

Replacement Lamps. We offer a broad range of LED retrofit lamps designed to fit into existing light fixtures as replacements for traditional incandescent, compact fluorescent and halogen lamps. Our range of dimmable LED retrofit lamps possess consistent color and delivers improved light distribution and brightness in commercial and residential settings as compared to traditional lighting products. Our replacement lamp product line includes lamps that are sold under the Lighting Science name as well as co-branded (for The Home Depot) and private label (for Standard Products) retrofit lamps offered directly to our customers and through distributors across North America. In January 2015, we launched the Vintage™ Filament Series of LED lamps, which provides LED energy savings and comes in many of the traditional, incandescent bulb decorative form factors.

Luminaires. We offer LED luminaires that combine energy efficiency, long life span and enhanced light distribution, making them ideal for street lighting and in parking garages, outdoor areas, warehouses and manufacturing areas. Our industrial product line includes: (i) PROLIFIC® Series Roadway Luminaires, (ii) Roadmaster™ Roadway Luminaires, (iii) C2D™ LowBay and BayLight luminaires for use in parking garages and (iv) the Forefront® Wall Pack luminaires for use in area, pathway and security lighting. In February 2015, we introduced the FreeLED solar roadway system, a sleek, intelligent and powerful street lighting solution that uses solar energy as its power source. We believe the FreeLED will provide a reliable, affordable and sustainable roadway illumination solution for the general public, including those rural or remote communities with limited access to the electric grid.

Biological Lighting. In 2013 we launched our Good Night™ and Awake & Alert™ circadian replacement lamps, the MyNature™ Coastal lamps and outdoor luminaires and the MyNature Grow lighting lamps and high bay luminaires. Traditional lights have a high level of blue light that causes photo receptors in the eye to suppress the body’s natural production of melatonin. At night, this disrupts the sleep cycle and can negatively affect health. The GoodNight light has a patented spectral filter that greatly reduces blue light and supports the body’s natural melatonin production. The Awake&Alert light has a blue enriched spectrum to naturally enhance the body’s energy and alertness. Our Coastal lighting solutions have been installed at Patrick Air Force Base and other locations along Florida’s east coast. There are also numerous commercial and academic greenhouses and growing facilities across the United States and Canada that have implemented our Grow lighting solutions. In March 2015, building on the proprietary technology underlying our popular Good Night lamp, we released the Sleepy Baby light, which delivers a patented, biologically-corrected light source for use during a baby’s nightly bedtime routine, sending natural signals to promote sleep and child wellness.

TARGET MARKETS AND CUSTOMERS

We focus our product development on the applications and markets in which the return on investment, total cost of ownership and other benefits of LED lighting currently offer clear and compelling incentives. In particular, we seek to improve our brand awareness and sales pipeline in major urban areas both in the United States and abroad in the following market segments. Historically we have relied on our relationship with The Home Depot for a significant portion of our revenues.

Residential and office. We offer a line of retrofit lamps, integrated retrofit kits and luminaires designed to compete with traditional incandescent, florescent and halogen lamps and luminaires for commercial and residential lighting applications. Our retrofit lamps and luminaires targeted for this market are currently sold to The Home Depot and OEMs that resell them under their own brands both directly to end-users and into retail channels such as home centers. We also have a comprehensive assortment of retrofit lamps and luminaires under the Lighting Science brand.

Retail and hospitality. The market for lighting in the retail and hospitality environment is large and varied and we believe our biological lighting technology whose light and color are tuned to achieve specific biological effects give us a distinct advantage. We have lighting products suited for malls, retail stores, hotels and resorts, cruise ships and restaurants. Our retrofit lamp and luminaire offerings for this market focus on task, down, bay, cove, linear, accent, track and spot lighting as well as retail display lighting. Several major retailers have replaced their existing lighting with our LED retrofit lamps and luminaires.

Government-owned and private infrastructure. Public and private infrastructure includes outdoor facilities and spaces that are managed by government and private entities. Primary applications in this market include lighting for streets and highways, parking lots, airports, ports, utilities and other large outdoor areas. Street and highway lighting represents the largest segment within the infrastructure market where the number of street and area lights in the United States alone is estimated at over 100 million fixtures.

Schools and universities. Buildings and outdoor lighting for primary, secondary and higher education represent a significant market opportunity for our energy-efficient solutions. This is due in part to the movement across K-12 institutions, as well as colleges and universities, to reduce energy use and environmental impact as well as improve sustainability. We believe that switching to LED lighting is one of the most practical, readily implementable, highest-return, and high profile actions campus administrators can take towards fulfilling this mandate. Principal applications in this market include lighting for parking lots, large outdoor areas, streets and building exteriors, as well as indoor lighting in classrooms and common areas.

SALES CHANNELS

We employ a multi-faceted channel strategy that addresses distinct market opportunities through branded and co-branded private label programs, our direct sales force, distributors and independent sales agents.

Our strategic account management team focuses on developing new business alliances and managing our existing branded lighting and OEM relationships, such as with The Home Depot whose brand recognition and retail footprint are important for us to access residential and commercial customers. In addition to its business development initiatives, our strategic account management team seeks to expand our revenues from our current accounts by providing ongoing energy analysis, market expertise and support to such customers.

Our national account management team focuses on finding new potentially high value customers and providing professional support to our current roster of end-users. This team targets and supports retail, hospitality, schools and universities, large real estate management and energy service company customers.

Our project-focused activities involve supporting our network of independent sales agents and distributors that pursue lighting projects in the commercial, industrial and public infrastructure markets on a regional basis. Our project-focused sales team develops and manages our network of channel partners and works with these partners to submit competitive bids on projects, and oversees the delivery and after-market support related to such projects.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

To successfully implement our business strategy, we must continually improve our current products and develop new products for existing and new applications. Our research and development team focuses on advanced technological applications that not only increase the efficiency of all of the components and subsystems that make up our products, but also add capabilities such as controls, adaptability and biological technology. Components and subsystems include power supplies, thermal management solutions, optical systems and LEDs.

Our research and development team also seeks to enhance the aesthetic appeal and reduce the total cost of ownership of our products. Although we implemented a number of cost cutting measures during the year ended December 31, 2014, including reductions in personnel, we intend to continue to dedicate a significant portion of our financial and personnel resources toward the development of new materials and methods related to our products.

Our research and development team is comprised of approximately 15 research scientists and engineers with Doctoral or Masters Degrees in disciplines such as power electronics, lighting, thermal and mechanical engineering, materials science and cellular and molecular biology. These professionals combine a thorough understanding of the sciences required to develop LED lighting products with extensive experience in the lighting industry. Our research and development capabilities are further enhanced through collaborations with leaders within and outside the LED lighting industry. We have research and development relationships with professionals and institutions in a wide range of fields, including advanced material science, semiconductor performance, medical and biological research, space exploration and military applications. These institutions include leading research organizations, such as NASA, Harvard, Jefferson Medical College, Florida Institute of Technology, University of Guelph and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, as well as leading technology-oriented companies such as Bayer AG, National Semiconductor Corporation. In addition, we have funded and continue to fund other research including advanced material processing and biological effects of lighting on plants and animals, including a recent study performed at Harvard and an on-going study at Alertness CRC Limited investigating the effects of lighting on human sleep patterns.

Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were $5.6 million, $10.3 million and $10.1 million, respectively. The decrease in research and development expenses is a result of product releases and on-going efforts to improve our financial results. We expense all of our research and development costs as they are incurred. Research and development expense is reported net of any funding received under contracts with governmental agencies or commercial customers that are considered to be cost sharing arrangements with no contractually committed deliverable.

MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLIERS

We design and engineer our products and outsource a significant portion of the manufacture and assembly of our products to a number of contract manufacturers both domestically and internationally. These contract manufacturers purchase components based on our specifications and provide the necessary facilities and labor to manufacture our products. We leverage the strength of our contract manufacturers and allocate the manufacture of specific products to the contract manufacturer best suited to the task. Quality control and lot testing is conducted at our contract manufacturers in Asia. Product qualification and testing is conducted in our facilities in Melbourne, Florida. The Melbourne facility and each of our contract manufacturers have been ISO9001:2008 certified as conforming to the standards published by the International Organization for Standardization.

We select LEDs based on a combination of availability, price and performance. We believe we have strong relationships with our LED suppliers and receive a high level of cooperation and support from them. In addition, we have entered into strategic relationships with certain of these key LED suppliers that currently give us access to next generation LED technology at an early stage and at competitive prices. Some of our products use a custom LED package that we source from a limited number of suppliers.

COMPETITION

Our products face competition in the general lighting market from both traditional lighting technologies produced by numerous vendors as well as from LED-based lighting products produced by a growing roster of industry participants. LED lighting products compete with traditional lighting technologies on the basis of the numerous benefits of LED lighting relative to such technology including greater energy efficiency, longer lifetime, improved durability, increased environmental sustainability, digital controllability, smaller size, directionality and lower heat output.

The LED lighting industry is characterized by rapid technological change, short product lifecycles and frequent new product introductions and a competitive pricing environment. These characteristics create a market environment that demands continuous innovation, provides entry points for new competitors and creates opportunities for rapid shifts in market share. We primarily compete with other providers of LED lighting on the basis of our product performance, as measured by efficacy, light quality, increased lumen output and reliability relative to industry standards and energy related certifications, such as ENERGY STAR and California Energy Commission specifications, as well as on product cost. In addition to the aforementioned factors, which generally contribute to a lower total cost of ownership and enhanced product quality as compared to alternative lighting solutions, we offer our customers a broad product portfolio and have access to retail channels through our OEM relationships. Our product design approach, proprietary technology and deep understanding of lighting applications aids our ability to compete in the market for LED lighting.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Our intellectual property portfolio is a key aspect of our product differentiation strategy. We seek to protect our proprietary technologies by obtaining patents and licenses, retaining trade secrets and, when appropriate, defending and enforcing our intellectual property rights. We believe this strategy optimizes our ability to preserve the advantages of our products and technologies and improves the return on our investment in research and development.

The LED lighting industry is characterized by the existence of a significant number of patents and other intellectual property and by the vigorous pursuit, protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights. We believe that our extensive intellectual property portfolio, along with our license arrangements, provides us with a considerable advantage relative to new entrants to the industry and smaller LED lighting providers in serving sophisticated customers. As is customary in the LED lighting industry, many of our customer agreements require us to indemnify our customers for third-party intellectual property infringement claims. Claims of this sort could harm our relationships with customers and might deter future customers from doing business with us. With respect to any intellectual property rights claims against us or our customers and/or distributors, we may be required to cease manufacture of the infringing product, pay damages and expend significant company resources to defend against the claim and/or develop non-infringing technology, seek a license or relinquish patents or other intellectual property rights.

REGULATIONS, STANDARDS AND CONVENTIONS

Our products are generally required to comply with and satisfy the electrical codes of the jurisdictions in which they are sold. Our products are designed to meet the typically more stringent codes established in the United States and the European Union, which usually allows our products to meet the codes in other geographic regions.

Many of our customers require our products to be certified by Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc. (“UL”). UL is a United States-based independent, nationally recognized testing laboratory, third-party product safety testing and certification organization. UL develops standards and test procedures for products, materials, components, assemblies, tools and equipment, chiefly dealing with product safety. UL evaluates products, components, materials and systems for compliance to specific requirements, and permits acceptable products to carry a UL certification mark, as long as they remain compliant with the standards. UL offers several categories of certification. Products that are “UL Listed,” are identified by the distinctive UL mark. We have undertaken to have all of our products meet UL standards and be UL listed. There are alternatives to UL certifications but we believe that our customers and end-users prefer UL certification.

In addition to the UL certification, certain of our products must also meet industry standards, such as those set by the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, and government regulations for their intended application. For example, our roadway luminaires must meet certain structural standards and must also deliver a certain amount of light in specified positions relative to the installed luminaire.

Many customers and end-users also expect our products to meet the applicable ENERGY STAR requirements. ENERGY STAR is a standard for energy efficient consumer products in the United States and Canada. To qualify for ENERGY STAR certification, LED lighting products must pass a variety of tests to prove that the products have certain characteristics. We produced the first LED retrofit lamp to be successfully qualified for ENERGY STAR designation.

We believe our operations are in compliance with all applicable environmental regulations within the jurisdictions in which we operate. The costs of compliance with these regulations are not deemed material.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2014, we had 77 employees in the United States all of which were full-time, and four full-time employees outside the United States, primarily in Hong Kong. We also utilized four temporary employees and nine contractors as of December 31, 2014, three of which were in the United States. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

We have a history of losses and may be unable to continue operations unless we can generate sufficient operating income from the sale of our products.

We have sustained operating losses since our inception. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we had revenue of $91.3 million, $83.2 million and $127.1 million, respectively, and as of December 31, 2014, we had accumulated a deficit of $800.3 million. As evidenced by these financial results, we have not been able to achieve profitability. Continuing losses may exhaust our capital resources and force us to discontinue our operations.

We believe we will have sufficient capital to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months based on our current business plan and the assumptions set forth therein. Our current business plan includes a focus on increasing revenue by updating and expanding our product offerings and capitalizing on the known product needs of our existing customers, improving gross margins by significantly leveraging contract manufacturers in Asia and reducing operating costs, primarily through the restructuring initiated in 2013 and continued throughout 2014. In future periods, if we do not adequately execute upon our business plan or if our assumptions or forecasts do not prove to be accurate, we could exhaust our available capital resources, which could require us to seek additional sources of liquidity or to further reduce our expenditures to preserve our cash. Additional sources of liquidity may not be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to us.

We have yet to achieve positive cash flow, and our ability to generate positive cash flow is uncertain. If we are unable to obtain sufficient capital when needed, our business and future prospects will be adversely affected and we could be forced to suspend or discontinue operations.

Our operations have not generated positive cash flow for any reporting period since our inception, and we have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of common and preferred stock and short-term and long-term debt. We had significant revenue growth from 2009 through 2012 and again in 2014, but we had a decrease in revenue in 2013 compared to 2012. Our limited operating history makes an evaluation of our future prospects difficult. The actual amount of funds that we will need to meet our operating needs will be determined by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include the timing and volume of sales transactions, the success of our marketing strategy, market acceptance of our products, the success of our research and development efforts, the on-going impact of the transition of our product manufacturing to our contract manufacturers, the costs associated with obtaining and enforcing our intellectual property rights, regulatory changes, competition, technological developments in the market, evolving industry standards and the amount of working capital investments we are required to make.

Our ability to continue to operate until our cash flows from operations turns positive will depend on our ability to continue to raise funds through public or private sales of shares of our capital stock or through debt. Through February 19, 2014, we had an asset-based lending facility (the “Wells Fargo ABL”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) that provided us with borrowing capacity calculated based on our accounts receivable and inventory, unrestricted cash held in a Wells Fargo deposit account, and the amount of a Second Lien Letter of Credit Facility (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”) with Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares Capital”). On February 19, 2014, we entered into a $30.5 million five-year term loan (the “Medley Term Loan”) and a two-year delayed draw term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Delayed Draw Loan”) with Medley Capital Corporation (“Medley”) that provided us with borrowing capacity of up to a maximum of $22.5 million. We utilized proceeds from the Medley Term Loan to repay our outstanding obligations under the Wells Fargo ABL and the Ares Letter of Credit Facility. On April 25, 2014, we entered into a three-year asset based revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL”) with FCC, LLC d/b/a First Capital (“First Capital”), which provides us with a maximum borrowing capacity of $22.5 million, subject to certain limitations. We utilized proceeds from the FCC ABL to repay outstanding obligations under the Medley Delayed Draw Loan. As of December 31, 2014, the balance outstanding on the FCC ABL was approximately $6.4 million and we had approximately $8.9 million of additional borrowing capacity.

In recent years, we have also raised funds through issuances of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”), Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series I Preferred Stock”) and Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series J Preferred Stock” and, collectively with the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Shares”). We have experienced limited access to the capital and credit markets, and it remains uncertain whether we will be able to obtain outside capital when we need it or on terms that would be acceptable to us. We have historically been dependent on affiliates of Pegasus Capital for our liquidity needs because other sources of liquidity have been insufficient or unavailable to meet our needs. If we are able to raise funds by selling additional shares of our Common Stock or securities convertible or exercisable into our Common Stock, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we are unable to obtain sufficient outside capital when needed, our business and future prospects will be adversely affected and we could be forced to suspend or discontinue operations.

We may be unable to profitably sell our products in this competitive pricing environment.

Aggressive pricing actions by our competitors may affect our growth prospects and profitability. We may not be able to increase prices to cover rising costs of components and raw materials or we may be limited in our ability to increase prices to improve our margins. Even if component and raw material costs were to decline, lower prices offered by competitors may not allow us to hold prices at their current levels, which could negatively impact both net sales and gross margins.

Our industry is highly competitive and if we are not able to compete effectively, including against larger lighting manufacturers with greater resources, our prospects for future success will be jeopardized.

Our industry is highly competitive. We face competition from both traditional lighting technologies provided by numerous vendors as well as from LED-based lighting products provided by a growing roster of industry participants. The LED lighting industry is characterized by rapid technological change, short product lifecycles and frequent new product introductions and a competitive pricing environment. These characteristics increase the need for continual innovation and provide entry points for new competitors as well as opportunities for rapid share shifts.

Currently, we view our primary competition to be from large, established companies in the traditional general lighting industry. Certain of these companies also provide, or have undertaken initiatives to develop, LED lighting products as well as other energy efficient lighting products. Additionally, we face competition from a fragmented group of smaller niche or low-cost offshore providers of LED lighting products. We also anticipate that larger LED chip manufacturers, including some of those that currently supply us, may seek to compete with us by introducing more complete retrofit lamps or luminaires. We also expect other large technology players with packaged LED chip technology that are currently focused on other end markets for LEDs, such as backlighting for LCD displays, to increasingly focus on the general illumination market as their existing markets saturate and LED use in general illumination grows. In addition, we may compete in the future with vendors of new technological solutions for energy efficient lighting.

Some of our current and future competitors are larger companies with greater resources to devote to research and development, manufacturing and marketing, as well as greater brand name recognition. Some of our more diversified competitors could also compete more aggressively with us by subsidizing losses in their LED lighting businesses with profits from other lines of business. Moreover, if one or more of our competitors or suppliers were to merge with one another, the change in the competitive landscape could adversely affect our customer, channel or supplier relationships or our competitive position. Additionally, any loss of a key channel partner, whether to a competitor or otherwise, could severely and rapidly damage our competitive position. To the extent that competition in our markets intensifies, we may be required to reduce our prices in order to remain competitive. If we do not compete effectively, or if we reduce our prices without making commensurate reductions in our costs, our revenue, gross margins and profitability and our future prospects for success, may be harmed.

If our preferred stockholders exercise their redemption rights, it would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and may result in a change of control.

Commencing on September 25, 2015, RW LSG Holdings LLC, (“Riverwood Holdings”), an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC (“Riverwood Management”) and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (“Riverwood Capital,” and collectively with Riverwood Holdings, Riverwood Management and their affiliates, “Riverwood”) and Pegasus will have the right to cause us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. If either Riverwood or Pegasus elects to cause us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, all other holders of the applicable series will have the right to redeem their shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. In addition, commencing 10 business days after September 25, 2015, each of Portman Limited and affiliates of Zouk Holdings Limited, jointly, has a contractual right to require us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock. We are also required to redeem the outstanding shares of our Series J Preferred Stock (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or any other security which ranks junior to, or pari passu with, the Series J Preferred Stock and (b) on November 14, 2019, at the election of the holders of Series J Preferred Stock (the “Special Redemption”). Each holder of Preferred Shares would also have the right to require us to redeem such shares upon the uncured material breach of our outstanding obligations under our indebtedness or our uncured breach of the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock (the “Series H Certificate of Designation”), the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation governing the Series I Preferred Stock (the “Series I Certificate of Designation”) or the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation governing the Series J Preferred Stock (the “Series J Certificate of Designation” and, collectively with the Series H Certificate of Designation and Series I Certificate of Designation, the “Certificates of Designation”). In total, our maximum payment obligation in the event of a redemption of all outstanding Preferred Shares was $492.0 million as of March 26, 2015. We would also be required to repay our outstanding obligations under the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL prior to any redemption of the Preferred Shares. As of December 31, 2014, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under these loan facilities was $34.2 million.

Any redemption of the Preferred Shares would be limited to funds legally available therefor under Delaware law. The Certificates of Designation provide that if there is not a sufficient amount of cash or surplus available to redeem the Preferred Shares, then the redemption shall be paid out of the remaining assets of the Company. In addition, the Series J Certificate of Designation provides that we are not permitted or required to redeem any shares of Series J Preferred Stock for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under our credit facilities. If we do not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock in connection with a Special Redemption of the Series J Preferred Stock, we will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders. As of December 31, 2014, based solely on a review of our balance sheet, we did not have legally available funds under Delaware law to satisfy a redemption of our Preferred Shares. In addition, based solely on our projected balance sheet as of September 25, 2015, we do not believe that we will have legally available funds on or before September 25, 2015 to satisfy any such redemption.

We have a limited amount of revenues and a history of losses, and we may not have sufficient cash to allow us to comply with our redemption obligations. Our ability to redeem the Preferred Shares depends upon our future operating performance, which is subject to general economic and competitive conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which we cannot control. If the cash flow from our operating activities is insufficient, we may take certain actions aimed to enable us to redeem the Preferred Shares, such as delaying or reducing capital expenditures, attempting to obtain financing, selling assets or operations or seeking additional equity capital. Any or all of these actions may not be sufficient to allow us to redeem the Preferred Shares. Further, we may be unable to take any of these actions on satisfactory terms, in a timely manner or at all.

The Series H Certificate of Designation also provides that upon the occurrence of a Control Event (as defined below), we must take any and all actions required and permitted to fix the size of the Board to a size that would permit Riverwood (as the primary investor of the Series H Preferred Stock) to appoint a majority of the directors to the Board until we satisfy or otherwise cure the obligations giving rise to the Control Event. A “Control Event” occurs if (x) Riverwood exercises its optional redemption right under the Series H Certificate of Designation and we are unable to redeem Riverwood’s Preferred Shares, (y) upon a change of control, we are unable to repurchase Riverwood’s Preferred Shares at a price equal to the liquidation amount or (z) we materially breach our outstanding obligations under our indebtedness or materially breach the terms of the Certificates of Designation. Riverwood’s rights with respect to a Control Event will automatically terminate if it ceases to beneficially own at least 10,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock (or the equivalent number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of such shares of Series H Preferred Stock).

Our issuances of Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock and Series J Preferred Stock may limit our ability to raise additional capital and/or take certain corporate action.

As of March 26, 2015, we had 246,035.52 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, consisting of 113,608.52 shares of our Series H Preferred Stock, 62,365 shares of our Series I Preferred Stock and 70,000 shares of our Series J Preferred Stock. The Certificates of Designation governing the Preferred Shares limit our ability to take certain actions without the consent of Pegasus and Riverwood, including, among other things:

•

redeem, reacquire, pay dividends or make other distributions on our securities;

•

engage in any recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar transaction;

•

incur any indebtedness (A) in excess of that contained in the FCC ABL or Medley Term Loan; or (B) that includes any provision that would limit our ability to redeem any Preferred Shares;

•

issue any equity securities, subject to limited exceptions;

•

enter into any new agreements or transactions with any affiliates or amend or modify the terms of any such agreements; and

•

acquire, license, transfer or sell any property, rights or assets or enter into any joint venture where (A) the aggregate consideration to be paid or received, or (B) the fair market value of the relevant property, rights or assets, exceeds $5.0 million.

Further, the Certificates of Designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock require us to have consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) that is at least $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 and each year thereafter. A breach of the terms of the Preferred Shares could entitle each holder to redeem their Preferred Shares, which could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

We are currently engaged in litigation and may suffer material adverse results.

On June 22, 2012, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), one of our stockholders, filed a lawsuit against us and several other defendants seeking rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company, recovery of attorneys’ fees and court costs for alleged violations of the Florida securities laws. Geveran alternatively seeks unspecified money damages, as well as recovery of court costs, for alleged common law negligent misrepresentation. On August 28, 2014, the court presiding over the lawsuit granted Geveran’s motion for partial summary judgment with respect to its first cause of action for violation of the Florida securities laws. As of March 30, 2015, this order has not been entered. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, we believe the court’s summary judgment award in favor of Geveran is in error and that we have strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. Once the order is entered, we plan to appeal it and, together with other defendants, post a bond, which should allow us to obtain an automatic stay of enforcement throughout the appeal process. We will vigorously defend our position on appeal. However, in the event that we are not successful on appeal, we could be liable for Geveran’s $25.0 million investment, as well as interest, attorneys’ fees and court costs. Such an outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. Even if we are successful on appeal, we will have to continue with litigation at the trial court level on the merits of the case. In such case, we may be unable to resolve the dispute in our favor and may ultimately be liable to Geveran for damages. Even if we are eventually successful in defending against Geveran’s claims or entering into a reasonable settlement agreement with Geveran, this litigation could result in substantial costs to us, could be a distraction to management and could harm our financial position.

We are also a defendant in an action brought by GE Lighting Solutions LLC (“GE Lighting”) in Federal District Court for the Northern District of Ohio in or about January 2013. GE Lighting asserts a claim of patent infringement against us under U.S Patent No. 6,787,999, entitled LED-Based Modular Lamp, and U.S. Patent No. 6,799,864, entitled High Power LED Power Pack for Spot Module Illumination, and seeks monetary damages and an injunction. We believe that we have strong defenses against GE Lighting’s claims. We have retained counsel, deny liability in connection with this matter and intend to continue to vigorously defend our position against the claims asserted by GE Lighting. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in defending against this action. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. Even if the outcome is favorable, this litigation could result in substantial costs to us, could be a distraction to management and could harm our financial position.

In addition, because we operate in an industry that includes some companies that are much larger, and have significantly greater resources, than the Company, a disagreement with a competitor that is not amicably resolved can result in litigation that, even if a favorable outcome is reached, could result in substantial costs to us, could be a distraction to our management and could harm our financial position.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our operations and our stock price.

We are subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires an annual management assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports, and failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could cause investors to lose confidence in our operating results, and could have a material adverse effect on our business and on the price of our common stock. Because of our status as a smaller reporting company registrant as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the independent registered public accounting firm auditing our financial statements has not been required to attest to, and report on, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

During the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures for the year ended December 31, 2014, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in reaching a reasonable level of assurance of achieving management’s desired controls and procedures objectives in our internal control over financial reporting. We believe that many of the observed material weaknesses resulted from the loss of certain key accounting and finance personnel and the transition of certain duties to personnel less familiar with the roles and responsibilities.

Subsequent to December 31, 2014, the following are among the key actions taken to our internal controls, which we believe have remediated the identified weaknesses:

●

We have improved the controls over the spreadsheet used in the inventory valuation and enhanced the training of the personnel responsible for preparing and reviewing the spreadsheet; and

●

We have implemented a reconciliation and confirmation process for our in-transit inventory on a monthly basis, as well as provided additional training of the personnel responsible for preparing and reviewing these transactions.

Additional measures may be necessary to complete the remediation of the weaknesses identified in our internal controls. We plan to continue to assess our internal controls and procedures and intend to take further action as necessary or appropriate to address any other weaknesses we identify. The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls and procedures is a continuous effort, however, that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and economic and regulatory environments. Additionally, we or our independent registered public accounting firm may identify additional weaknesses. The steps we have taken, or may subsequently take, may not be sufficient to fully remediate the material weakness identified or ensure that our internal controls are effective. Complying with these requirements may place a strain on our personnel, information technology systems and resources and divert management’s attention from other business concerns. We may need to hire, at a material expense to us, additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge as part of the remediation of our material weakness or otherwise.

The LED lighting industry is characterized by constant and rapid technological change, product obsolescence, price erosion, evolving standards, short product life cycles and fluctuations in supply and demand. If we fail to anticipate and adapt to these changes and fluctuations, our sales, gross margins and profitability will be adversely affected.

In the LED lighting industry, rapid technological changes and short product life cycles often lead to price erosion and product obsolescence. Companies within the LED lighting industry are continuously developing new products with heightened performance and functionality, putting pricing pressure on existing products. Further, the industry has experienced significant fluctuations, often in connection with, or in anticipation of, product cycles and changes in general economic conditions. These fluctuations have been characterized by lower product demand, production overcapacity, higher inventory levels and increased pricing pressure. Our failure to accurately anticipate the introduction of new technologies or adapt to fluctuations in the industry can, as it has in the past, lead to our having significant amounts of obsolete inventory that can only be sold at substantially lower prices and profit margins than anticipated. Pricing pressure and obsolescence also cause the stated value of our inventory to decline. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we recorded an inventory write-down of $4.7 million, $11.4 million and $15.8 million, respectively, and a provision for expected losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments of $507,000, $2.3 million and $5.6 million, respectively. In addition, if we are unable to develop planned new technologies or if the transition of our manufacturing operations are unsuccessful, we may be unable to compete effectively due to our failure to offer products most demanded by the marketplace. If any of these failures occur, our sales, gross margins and profitability will be adversely affected.

If our developed technology or technology under development does not achieve market acceptance, prospects for our growth and profitability would be limited.

Our future success depends on continued market acceptance of our LED technology and the technology currently under development. Although adoption of LED lighting continues to grow, adoption of LED lighting products for general illumination is in its early stages, is still limited and faces significant challenges. Potential customers may be reluctant to adopt LED lighting products as an alternative to traditional lighting technology because of its higher initial cost or perceived risks relating to its novelty, reliability, usefulness, light quality and cost-effectiveness when compared to other established lighting sources available in the market. Changes in economic and market conditions may also affect the marketability of some traditional lighting technologies such as declining energy prices in certain regions or countries may favor existing lighting technologies that are less energy efficient, reducing the rate of adoption for LED lighting products in those areas. Moreover, if existing sources of light other than LED lighting products achieve or maintain greater market adoption, or if new sources of light are developed, our current products and technologies could become less competitive or obsolete. Even if LED lighting products continue to achieve performance improvements and cost reductions, limited customer awareness of the benefits of LED lighting products, lack of widely accepted standards governing LED lighting products and customer unwillingness to adopt LED lighting products in favor of entrenched solutions could significantly limit the demand for LED lighting products and adversely impact our results of operations.

If we are unable to effectively develop, manage and expand our sales and distribution channels for our products, our operating results may suffer.

We sell a substantial portion of our products to retailers and OEMs who then sell our products on a co-branded or private label basis. Orders from our retail and OEM customers are dependent upon their internal target inventory levels for our products which can vary significantly based upon current and projected market cycles and other factors over which we typically have very little, if any, control. We rely on these retailers and OEMs to develop and expand the customer base for our products and to accurately forecast demand from their customers. If they are not successful in either task, our growth and profitability may be adversely impacted.

We rely on our relationship with The Home Depot and the loss of this material relationship or any other significant relationship would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, our future growth prospects and our ability to distribute our products.

We form business relationships and strategic alliances with retailers and other lighting companies to market our products, generally under private or co-branded labels. In certain cases, such relationships are important to our introduction of new products and services, and we may not be able to successfully collaborate or achieve expected synergies with these retailers or lighting companies. We do not control these retailers or lighting companies and they may make decisions regarding their business undertakings with us that may be contrary to our interests, or may terminate their relationships with us altogether. In addition, if these retailers or lighting companies change their business strategies, for example due to business volume fluctuations, mergers and acquisitions and/or performance issues, fail to pay or terminate the relationship altogether, our business could be materially adversely affected.

For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, The Home Depot accounted for 80%, 55% and 48% of our net sales, respectively. While we anticipate The Home Depot will remain a significant customer in 2015, our contractual commitment with The Home Depot is not long term in nature. Our Strategic Purchasing Agreement with The Home Depot does not expire until July 2016, but The Home Depot may terminate the Strategic Purchasing Agreement at any time for any reason upon 180 days written notice to us. Following expiration of the initial term in July 2016, The Home Depot may extend the Strategic Purchasing Agreement for two additional one-year renewal terms. A loss of The Home Depot as a customer or a significant decline in their purchases or their failure to pay us would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, our future growth prospects and our ability to distribute our products.

The Home Depot has required, and we expect will continue to require, increased service and order accommodations as well as incremental promotional investments. We may face increased expenses to meet these demands, which would reduce our margins. In addition, we generally have little or no influence on The Home Depot’s promotional or pricing policies, which may impact our sales volume to it. In addition, our Strategic Purchasing Agreement with The Home Depot does not require it to purchase a minimum quantity of products from us. We issued a Warrant to The Home Depot that included incentive-based vesting conditions through 2015 based on annual 20% increases in product purchases made under the Strategic Purchasing Agreement. For 2011, 2012 and 2014, the 20% volume increase was reached and The Home Depot vested in warrants to purchase a total of 5,008,176 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share. However, The Home Depot did not purchase a sufficient quantity of products from us to achieve the incentive-based vesting condition for 2013. As of December 31, 2014, the 1,669,392 warrants that vested in 2011 expired unexercised.

If we do not successfully manage our network of distributors and independent sales representatives, we may not be able to increase sales to meet growth expectations.

Our growth and future financial performance will depend on our ability to maintain and exploit our internal sales and service organization, and to substantially increase the scope of our distribution and sales network, both domestically and internationally. We may not be able to negotiate acceptable relationships in the future and cannot predict whether current or future relationships will be successful. We may face intense competition for personnel and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract, assimilate or retain additional qualified business development and sales personnel on a timely basis.

Some of these relationships have not been formalized in a detailed contract, and may be subject to termination at any time. The agreements that are formalized in a contract are generally short-term, not exclusive, and can be cancelled by these sales channels without significant financial consequence. In addition, these parties provide technical sales support to end-users. We cannot control how these sales channels perform and cannot be certain that we or end-users will be satisfied by their performance. If these distributors and agents significantly change their terms with us, or change their historical pattern of ordering products from us, there could be a significant impact on our revenue and profits.

Our products may contain defects that could reduce sales, result in costs associated with the recall of or warranty obligations associated with those items and result in claims against us.

The manufacture of our products involves highly complex processes. Despite testing by us, our contract manufacturers and our customers, defects have been and could be found in our existing or future products. These defects may cause us to incur significant warranty, support and repair costs. The costs associated with a recall may divert the attention of our engineering personnel from our product development efforts and harm our relationships with customers and our reputation in the marketplace. We generally provide a five year warranty on our products, and such warranty may require us to repair, replace or reimburse the purchaser for the purchase price of the product, at our discretion. Moreover, even if our products meet standard specifications, our customers may attempt to use our products in applications they were not designed for or in products that were not designed or manufactured properly, resulting in product failures and creating customer dissatisfaction. These problems could result in, among other things, a delay in the recognition or loss of revenue, loss of market share or failure to achieve market acceptance. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we incurred $4.8 million and $4.9 million, respectively, in warranty expense primarily related to an increase in the number of products returned under our standard warranty and the estimated expenses related to failure rates on two of our replacement lamp product lines sold in 2011 and 2012. If our products experience failure rates in excess of our estimates, we may continue to incur increased warranty expenses in the future.

Defects, integration issues or other performance problems in our products could also result in personal injury or financial or other damages to our customers for which they might seek legal recourse against us. We may be the target of product liability lawsuits and could suffer losses from a significant product liability judgment against us if the use of our products at issue is determined to have caused injury. A significant product recall or product liability case could also adversely affect our results of operations and result in negative publicity, damage to our reputation and a loss of customer confidence in our products.

If we are unable to increase production capacity for our products with our contract manufacturers in a cost effective and timely manner, we may incur delays in shipment and our revenue and reputation in the marketplace could be harmed.

An important part of our business plan is the expansion of production capacity for our products. In order to fulfill anticipated demand for our products, we invest in capacity in advance of actual customer orders, typically based on preliminary, non-binding indications of future demand. As customer demand for our products changes, we must be able to adjust our production capacity to meet demand while keeping costs down. Uncertainty is inherent within our facility and capacity expansion, and unforeseen circumstances could offset the anticipated benefits, disrupt our ability to provide products to our customers and impact product quality.

Our ability to successfully increase or obtain production capacity in a cost effective and timely manner will depend on a number of factors, including the following:

•

our ability to sustain relationships with key contract manufacturers without disruption and the ability of contract manufacturers to allocate more of their existing capacity to us or their ability to add new capacity quickly;

•

the ability of any future contract manufacturers to successfully implement our manufacturing processes;

•

the availability of critical components and subsystems used in the manufacture of our products; and

•

our ability to effectively establish adequate management information systems, financial controls and supply chain management and quality control procedures.

If we are unable to increase production capacity for our products in a cost effective and timely manner while maintaining adequate quality, we may incur delays in shipment or be unable to meet increased demand for our products, which could harm our revenue and operating margins and damage our reputation and our relationships with current and prospective customers.

We utilize contract manufacturers to manufacture most of our products and any disruption in these relationships may cause us to fail to meet our customers’ demands and may damage our customer relationships and adversely affect our business.

We depend on contract manufacturers to manufacture most of our products and provide the necessary facilities and labor to manufacture these products, which are primarily high volume products and components that we intend to distribute to customers in North America. Our reliance on contract manufacturers involve certain risks, including the following:

•

lack of direct control over production capacity and delivery schedules;

•

risk of equipment failures, natural disasters, civil unrest, industrial accidents, power outages and other business interruptions;

•

lack of direct control over quality assurance and manufacturing yield; and

•

risk of loss of inventory while in transit.

If our current contract manufacturers or any other contract manufacturers we may engage in the future were to terminate their arrangement with us or fail to provide the required capacity and quality on a timely basis, we would experience delays in the manufacture and shipment of our products until alternative manufacturing services could be contracted. Any significant shortages or interruption may cause us to be unable to timely deliver sufficient quantities of our products to satisfy our contractual obligations and particular revenue expectations. Moreover, even if we timely locate substitute products, if their price materially exceeds the original expected cost of such products, our margins and results of operations would be adversely affected.

Furthermore, to qualify new contract manufacturers, familiarize them with our products, quality standards and other requirements and commence volume production may be a costly and time-consuming process. If we are required or choose to change contract manufacturers for any reason, our revenue, gross margins and customer relationships could be adversely affected.

If we do not properly anticipate the need for our products, we may be unable to meet the demands of our customers and end-users, which could reduce our competitiveness, cause a decline in our market share and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

The lighting industry is subject to significant fluctuations in the availability of raw materials, components and subsystems. Our contract manufacturers and we depend on our suppliers for certain standard electronic components as well as custom components critical to the manufacture of our lighting devices. The principal raw materials and components used in the manufacture of our products are packaged LEDs and printed circuit boards, MOSFETS, magnetic and standard electrical components such as capacitors, resistors and diodes, wire, plastics for optical systems and aluminum for housings and heat sinks. From time to time, packaged LEDs and electronic components have been in short supply due to demand and production constraints. If we do not accurately forecast demand for our products, we or our contract manufacturers may not be able to find an adequate alternative source of supply at an acceptable cost. Any significant interruption in the supply of these raw materials, components and subsystems or our products could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our financial results may vary significantly from period-to-period due to unpredictable sales cycles in certain of the markets into which we sell our products, which may lead to volatility in our stock price.

The size and timing of our revenue from sales to our customers is difficult to predict and is market dependent. Our revenue in each period may also vary significantly as a result of purchases, or lack thereof, by The Home Depot or other significant customers. Because most of our operating and capital expenses are incurred based on the estimated number of product purchases and their timing, they are difficult to adjust in the short term. As a result, if our revenue falls below our expectations or is delayed in any period, we may not be able to proportionately reduce our operating expenses or manufacturing costs for that period. As a result of these factors, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results are not necessarily meaningful and that these comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

Our debt obligations contain restrictions that impact our business and expose us to risks that could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.

On February 19, 2014, we entered into the Medley Term Loan and Medley Delayed Draw Loan, and we utilized proceeds from the Medley Term Loan to repay our outstanding obligations under the Wells Fargo ABL and the Ares Letter of Credit Facility. On April 25, 2014, we entered into the FCC ABL which provides us with a maximum borrowing capacity of $22.5 million, which capacity is limited by a borrowing base equal to (i) the sum of (A) 85% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and (B) the lesser of (a) $10 million and (b) the sum of (x) the lesser of (1) 65% of the dollar value of certain eligible inventory and (2) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of such eligible inventory, (y) 65% of certain other inventory and (z) the lesser of (1) $4.5 million and (2) the lesser of 65% of the dollar value or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory that is in-transit, minus (ii) the sum of reserves established by First Capital and the amount of our outstanding letter of credit obligations. We utilized proceeds from the FCC ABL to repay outstanding obligations under the Medley Delayed Draw Loan. As of December 31, 2014, the balance outstanding on the FCC ABL was approximately $6.4 million and we had approximately $8.9 million of additional borrowing capacity.

Borrowings under the Medley Term Loan and FCC ABL are secured by substantially all of our assets and our material wholly owned subsidiaries (subject to certain permitted liens) and may be used for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. We may replace the FCC ABL facility with a replacement revolving facility, on a secured first priority basis, without penalty or premium, subject to the negotiation of loan documents and an intercreditor agreement on terms and conditions satisfactory to FCC and Medley.

If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or otherwise obtain the funds necessary to make required payments under the Medley Term Loan and FCC ABL could result in a default under these facilities. Further, we are required under our credit facilities to maintain a certain minimum EBITDA and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00. Failure to comply with these or any other requirements of our indebtedness could result in a default. Any default that is not cured or waived could result in the acceleration of the obligations under these facilities, an increase in the applicable interest rate under these facilities and a requirement that our subsidiaries that have guaranteed these facilities pay the obligations in full, and would permit our lenders to exercise remedies with respect to all of the collateral securing these facilities, including substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors’ assets. Any such default could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, the covenants in such agreements or future debt agreements may restrict the conduct of our business, which could adversely affect our business by, among other things, limiting our ability to take advantage of financings, mergers, acquisitions and other corporate opportunities that may be beneficial to the business.

If we are unable to obtain and protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to commercialize our products could be substantially limited.

As of December 31, 2014, we had filed 353 U.S. patent applications covering various inventions related to the design and manufacture of LED lighting technology. From these applications, 230 U.S. patents had been issued, 122 were pending approval and 22 were no longer active. When we believe it is appropriate and cost effective, we make corresponding international, regional or national filings to pursue patent protection in other parts of the world. Our patent applications may not be granted. Because patents involve complex legal, technical and factual questions, the issuance, scope, validity and enforceability of patents cannot be predicted with certainty. Competitors may develop products similar to our products that do not conflict with our patent rights. Others may challenge our patents and, as a result, our patents could be narrowed or invalidated. In some cases, we may rely on confidentiality agreements or trade secret protections to protect our proprietary technology. Such agreements, however, may not be honored and particular elements of our proprietary technology may not qualify as protectable trade secrets under applicable law. In addition, others may independently develop similar or superior technology, and in the absence of applicable prior patents, we would have no recourse against them.

Our business may be impaired by claims that we, or our customers, infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.

Our industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights. These traits have resulted in significant and often protracted and expensive litigation. In addition, we may inadvertently infringe on patents or rights owned by others and licenses might not be available to us on reasonable or acceptable terms or at all. Litigation to determine the validity of patents or claims by third parties of infringement of patents or other intellectual property rights could result in significant legal expense and divert the efforts of our technical personnel and management, even if the litigation results in a determination favorable to us. Third parties have and may in the future attempt to assert infringement claims against us, or our customers, with respect to our products. In the event of an adverse result in such litigation, we could be required to pay substantial damages; stop the manufacture, use and sale of products found to be infringing; incur asset impairment charges; discontinue the use of processes found to be infringing; expend significant resources to develop non-infringing products or processes; or obtain a license to use third party technology and whether or not the result is adverse to us, we may have to indemnify our customers if they were brought into the litigation.

Certification and compliance are important to the sale and adoption of our lighting products, and failure to obtain such certification or compliance would harm our business.

We are required to comply with certain legal requirements governing the materials used in our products. Although we are not aware of any efforts to amend existing legal requirements or implement new legal requirements in a manner with which we cannot comply, our revenue might be materially harmed if such changes were to occur. Moreover, although not legally required to do so, we strive to obtain certification for substantially all of our products. In the United States, we seek, and to date have obtained, certification for substantially all of our products from UL. We design our products to be UL/cUL and Federal Communications Commission compliant. We have also obtained ENERGY STAR qualification for 70 of the products that we were producing as of December 31, 2014. Although we believe that our broad knowledge and experience with electrical codes and safety standards have facilitated certification approvals, we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain any such certifications for our new products or that, if certification standards are amended, we will be able to maintain any such certifications for our existing products, especially since virtually all existing codes and standards were not created with LED lighting products in mind. The failure to obtain such certifications or compliance could harm our business.

The reduction or elimination of investments in, or incentives to adopt, LED lighting or the elimination of, or changes in, policies, incentives or rebates in certain states or countries that encourage the use of LEDs over some traditional lighting technologies could cause the growth in demand for our products to slow, which could materially and adversely affect our revenue, profits and margins.

We believe the near-term growth of the LED market will be accelerated by government policies in certain countries that either directly promote the use of LEDs or discourage the use of some traditional lighting technologies. Today, the upfront cost of LED lighting exceeds the upfront cost for some traditional lighting technologies that provide similar lumen output in many applications. However, some governments around the world have used policy initiatives to accelerate the development and adoption of LED lighting and other non-traditional lighting technologies that are seen as more environmentally friendly compared to some traditional lighting technologies. Reductions in (including as a result of any budgetary constraints), or the elimination of, government investment and favorable energy policies could result in decreased demand for our products and decrease our revenue, profits and margins. Further, if our products fail to qualify for any financial incentives or rebates provided by governmental agencies or utilities for which our competitors’ products qualify, such programs may diminish or eliminate our ability to compete by offering products at lower prices than our competitors.

Changes in the mix of products we sell during a period could have an impact on our results of operations.

Our profitability from period-to-period may vary significantly due to the mix of products that we sell in different periods. As we expand our product offerings we expect to sell more retrofit lamps and luminaires into additional target markets. These products are likely to have different cost profiles and will be sold into markets governed by different business dynamics. Consequently, sales of individual products may not necessarily be consistent across periods, which could affect product mix and cause gross and operating profits to vary significantly. Given the potentially large size of purchase orders for our products, particularly in the infrastructure market, the loss of or delay in the signing of a customer order could significantly reduce our revenue in any period. In addition, we spend substantial amounts of time and money on our efforts to educate our customers about the use and benefits of our products, including their technical and performance characteristics, and these investments may not produce any sales within expected time frames or at all.

We rely upon key members of our management team and other key personnel and a loss of key personnel could prevent or significantly delay the achievement of our goals.

Our success will depend to a large extent on the abilities and continued services of key members of our management team. The loss of key members of our management team or other key personnel could prevent or significantly delay the implementation of our business plan, research and development and marketing efforts. Our success will depend on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel including a new Chief Financial Officer and our efforts to obtain or retain such personnel may not be successful.

The operations of many of our manufacturers are subject to additional risks that are beyond our control and that could harm our business.

Most of our products are manufactured by third-party contract manufacturers in foreign countries. During 2014, approximately 85% of our products were manufactured internationally, as compared to 60% in 2013 and 95% in 2012. As a result of our international manufacturing, we are subject to risks associated with doing business abroad, including:

	•	political or labor unrest, terrorism and economic instability resulting in the disruption of trade from foreign countries in which our products are manufactured;

	•	currency exchange fluctuations;

	•	the imposition of new laws and regulations, including those relating to labor conditions, quality and safety standards, imports, trade restrictions and restrictions on the transfer of funds, as well as rules and regulations regarding climate change;

•

reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;

•

disruptions or delays in shipments; and

•

changes in local economic conditions in countries where our manufacturers and suppliers are located.

These risks could negatively affect the ability of our manufacturers to produce or deliver our products or procure materials and could increase our cost of doing business generally. In the event that one or more of these factors make it undesirable or impractical for us to conduct business in a particular country, our business could be adversely affected.

In addition, certain of our imported products are subject to duties, tariffs or other import limitations that affect the cost and quantity of various types of goods imported into the United States and other markets. Any country in which our products are produced or sold may eliminate, adjust or impose new import limitations, duties, anti-dumping penalties or other charges or restrictions, any of which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Our international operations are subject to legal, political and economic risks.

Our financial condition, operating results and future growth could be significantly affected by risks associated with our international activities, including economic and labor conditions, political instability, laws (including U.S. taxes on foreign subsidiaries), changes in the value of the U.S. dollar versus foreign currencies, differing business cultures, foreign regulations that may conflict with domestic regulations, intellectual property protection and trade secret risks, differing contracting process including the ability to enforce agreements, increased dependence on foreign manufacturers, shippers and distributors and import and export restrictions and tariffs.

Compliance with U.S. and foreign laws and regulations that apply to our international operations, including import and export requirements, anti-corruption laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, tax laws (including U.S. taxes on foreign subsidiaries), foreign exchange controls, anti-money laundering and cash repatriation restrictions, data privacy requirements, labor laws and anti-competition regulations, increases the costs of doing business in foreign jurisdictions, and any such costs, which may rise in the future as a result of changes in these laws and regulations or in their interpretation. We have not implemented formal policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations. Any such violations could individually or in the aggregate materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition or operating results.

RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK

Our Common Stock has been thinly traded and an active trading market may not develop.

The trading volume of our Common Stock has historically been low, partially because we are not listed on an exchange and our Common Stock is only traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board (the “OTC Bulletin Board”). In addition, our public float has been further limited due to the fact that the vast majority of our outstanding Common Stock has historically been beneficially owned by affiliates of Pegasus Capital. Until we initiate a public offering of our Common Stock or are approved for listing on a national exchange, a more active trading market for our Common Stock may not develop, or if developed, may not continue, and a holder of any of our securities may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our Common Stock.

We are controlled by Pegasus Capital, whose interests in our business may be different from yours.

Affiliates of Pegasus Capital beneficially owned approximately 87.9% of our Common Stock as of March 26, 2015. As a result of this ownership, Pegasus Capital has a controlling influence on our affairs and its voting power constitutes a quorum of our stockholders voting on any matter requiring the approval of our stockholders. Such matters include the nomination and election of directors, the issuance of additional shares of our capital stock or payment of dividends, the adoption of amendments to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and approval of mergers or sales of substantially all of our assets. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company or discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares, which could prevent stockholders from receiving a premium for their shares. Pegasus Capital may cause corporate actions to be taken even if the interests of Pegasus Capital conflict with the interests of our other stockholders.

If we applied and our shares were approved for listing on a national stock exchange, we would likely elect to be considered a “controlled company” which would exempt us from certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that a majority of our board of directors meet the specified standards of independence and the exemption from the requirement that we have a compensation and governance committee made up entirely of directors who meet such independence standards. Such independence standards are intended to ensure that directors who meet the independence standard are free of any conflicting interest that could influence their actions as directors. It is possible that the interests of Pegasus Capital may in some circumstances conflict with our interests and the interests of our other stockholders, including you.

Because our stock price is volatile, it can be difficult for stockholders to predict the value of our shares at any given time.

The price of our Common Stock has been and may continue to be highly volatile, which makes it difficult for stockholders to assess or predict the value of their shares. A number of factors may affect the market price of our Common Stock, including, but not limited to:

•

changes in expectations as to our future financial performance;

•

announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

•

announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

•

changes in laws and government regulations;

•

developments concerning our proprietary rights;

•

public perception relating to the commercial value or reliability of any of our lighting products;

•

future sales of our Common Stock or issues of other equity securities convertible into or exercisable for the purchase of Common Stock;

•

our involvement in litigation;

•

the acquisition or divestiture by Pegasus Capital or its affiliates of part or all of its holdings; and

•

general stock market conditions.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our Common Stock.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our Common Stock and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We have a history of losses and currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. In addition, the terms of the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL restrict our ability to pay cash dividends and any future credit facilities or loan agreements may further restrict our ability to pay cash dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our Common Stock will be your sole source of potential gain for the foreseeable future.

Anti-takeover provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, and Delaware law, contain provisions that could discourage a takeover.

Anti-takeover provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law may have the effect of deterring or delaying attempts by our stockholders to remove or replace management, engage in proxy contests and effect changes in control. The provisions of our charter documents include:

•

procedures for advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals;

•

the inability of less than a majority of our stockholders to call a special meeting of the stockholders;

•

the ability of our board of directors to create new directorships and to fill any vacancies on the board of directors;

•

the ability of our board of directors to amend our bylaws without stockholder approval; and

•

the ability of our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval upon the terms and conditions and with the rights, privileges and preferences as our board of directors may determine.

In addition, as a Delaware corporation, we are subject to Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless certain specific requirements are met as set forth in Section 203. These provisions, alone or together, could have the effect of deterring or delaying changes in incumbent management, proxy contests or changes in control.

Future sales or the possibility of future sales of a substantial amount of our Common Stock may depress the price of shares of our Common Stock.

Future sales or the availability for sale of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future sales of equity securities. We may issue shares of our Common Stock or other securities from time to time to raise capital to fund our operating expenses pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options or warrants or as consideration for future acquisitions and investments. If any such issuance, acquisition or investment is significant, the number of shares of our Common Stock, or the number or aggregate principal amount, as the case may be, of other securities that we may issue may in turn be substantial. We may also grant registration rights covering those shares of our Common Stock or other securities in connection with any such acquisitions and investments.

We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our Common Stock or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of our Common Stock will have on the market price of our Common Stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock (including shares of our Common Stock issued in connection with an acquisition or by Pegasus Capital or its affiliates), or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Common Stock.

Securities analysts may not provide coverage of our Common Stock or may issue negative reports, which may have a negative impact on the market price of our Common Stock.

Securities analysts have not historically provided research coverage of our Common Stock and may elect not to do so in the future. If securities analysts do not cover our Common Stock, the lack of research coverage may cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline. The trading market for our Common Stock may be affected in part by the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about our business. If one or more of the analysts who elects to cover us downgrades our stock, our stock price would likely decline substantially. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us, we could lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline. In addition, rules mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and a global settlement reached in 2003 between the SEC, other regulatory agencies and a number of investment banks have led to a number of fundamental changes in how analysts are reviewed and compensated. In particular, many investment banking firms are required to contract with independent financial analysts for their stock research. It may be difficult for companies such as ours, with smaller market capitalizations, to attract independent financial analysts that will cover our Common Stock. This could have a negative effect on the market price of our stock.

Item 2. Properties.

Our principal administrative, sales and marketing and research and development operations are located at our Melbourne, Florida headquarters.

As of March 26, 2015, we occupied leased office and industrial space in the following locations:

Location	Estimated Monthly Rental Cost		Expiration date
Melbourne, Florida	$	22,473	December 2019

Cocoa Beach, Florida	$	6,500	October 2016

Noida, India	$	1,701	June 2016

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

On June 22, 2012, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), one of our stockholders, filed a lawsuit against us and several others in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. On October 30, 2012, the court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida. The action, styled Geveran Investments Limited v. Lighting Science Group Corp., et al., Case No. 12-17738 (07), names us as defendants, as well as Pegasus Capital and nine other entities affiliated with Pegasus Capital; Richard Weinberg, our former Director and former interim Chief Executive Officer and a former partner of Pegasus Capital; Gregory Kaiser, our former Chief Financial Officer; J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC (“J.P. Morgan”); and two employees of J.P. Morgan. Geveran seeks rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company, as well as recovery of attorneys’ fees and court costs, jointly and severally against the Company, Pegasus Capital, Mr. Weinberg, Mr. Kaiser, J.P. Morgan and the two J.P. Morgan employees, for alleged violations of Florida securities laws. Geveran alternatively seeks unspecified money damages, as well as recovery of court costs, for alleged common law negligent misrepresentation against these same defendants.

In August 2014, the court granted Geveran’s motion to amend its first amended complaint to assert a claim for punitive damages against the defendants. On August 28, 2014, the court issued an Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment under its First Cause of Action for Violation of the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act (the “August 28 Order”). As of March 30, 2015, the August 28 Order has not been entered. Once the August 28 Order is entered, we intend to appeal it. Together with the other defendants, we will have 30 days to post a bond during which time enforcement of the judgment would be stayed. We plan to have a bond posted to secure the judgment, resulting in the automatic stay of enforcement through the appeal process.

Despite the court’s grant of summary judgment in Geveran’s favor, we continue to believe that we have strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. We have retained counsel, deny liability in connection with this matter and intend to continue to vigorously defend against the claims asserted by Geveran. However, the amount of possible loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. We believe that, subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant policies (including retention and policy limits), directors and officers’ insurance coverage will be available to cover the substantial majority of our legal fees and costs in this matter. However, insurance coverage may not be available for, or such coverage may not be sufficient to fully pay, a judgment or settlement in favor of Geveran. Based upon the terms of an engagement letter described below, we have also paid, and are likely to pay in the future, the reasonable legal expenses incurred by J.P. Morgan and its affiliates in this lawsuit in connection with the engagement of J.P. Morgan as placement agent for our private placement with Geveran. Such payments are not covered by our insurance coverage. The engagement letter executed with J.P. Morgan provides that we will indemnify J.P. Morgan and its affiliates from liabilities relating to J.P. Morgan’s activities as placement agent, unless such activities are finally judicially determined to have resulted from J.P. Morgan’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

We are also a defendant in action brought by GE Lighting in Federal District Court for the Northern District of Ohio in or about January 2013. GE Lighting asserts a claim of patent infringement against us under U.S Patent No. 6,787,999, entitled LED-Based Modular Lamp, and U.S. Patent No. 6,799,864, entitled High Power LED Power Pack for Spot Module Illumination, and seeks monetary damages and an injunction. We believe that we have strong defenses against GE Lighting’s claims. We have retained counsel, deny liability in connection with this matter and intend to continue to vigorously defend our position against the claims asserted by GE Lighting. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in defending against this action. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

In addition, we may be a party to a variety of legal actions, such as employment and employment discrimination-related suits, employee benefit claims, breach of contract actions, tort claims, shareholder suits, including securities fraud, intellectual property related litigation, and a variety of legal actions relating to its business operations. In some cases, substantial punitive damages may be sought. We currently have insurance coverage for certain of these potential liabilities. Other potential liabilities may not be covered by insurance, insurers may dispute coverage or the amount of insurance may not be sufficient to cover the damages awarded. In addition, certain types of damages, such as punitive damages, may not be covered by insurance and insurance coverage for all or certain forms of liability may become unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the future.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Our Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “LSCG.” Our Common Stock last traded at $0.20 on March 26, 2015, and there were approximately 229 stockholders of record of our Common Stock on that date. We believe the number of beneficial owners is greater than the number of record holders because beneficial owners of our outstanding Common Stock hold shares of record in broker “street names” for the benefit of individual investors. As of March 26, 2015, there were 212,003,605 shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

The following table provides the high and low closing bid price information for our Common Stock for each quarterly period within the two most recent years as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board. The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not paid any dividends on our Common Stock since our inception and do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We currently anticipate that we will retain all of our available cash, if any, for use as working capital and for other general corporate purposes, including to service our debt and to fund the operation of our business. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on many factors, including general economic and business conditions, our strategic plans, our financial results and condition, legal requirements and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. Certain of our financing agreements and the terms of our outstanding preferred stock also impose restrictions on our ability to pay dividends.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan

We currently have one equity-based compensation plan, the 2012 Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan, (the “Equity Plan”). Awards granted under the Equity Plan may include incentive stock options, which are qualified under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), stock options other than incentive stock options, which are not qualified under Section 422 of the Code, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, phantom stock, bonus stock and awards in lieu of obligations, dividend equivalents and other stock-based awards. As of December 31, 2014, there were 155.0 million shares authorized for issuance under the Equity Plan and 105.3 million shares remaining for future grants. Awards may be granted to employees, members of the Board of Directors, and consultants. The Equity Plan is generally administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Vesting periods and terms for awards are determined by the plan administrator. The exercise price of each stock option or stock appreciation right must be equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and no stock option or stock appreciation right granted may have a term in excess of ten years.

2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On February 10, 2011, our board of directors adopted the Lighting Science Group Corporation 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Program (the “2011 ESPP”).

All employees of the Company and any designated subsidiary are eligible to participate in the 2011 ESPP, subject to certain exceptions. The total number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by eligible employees under the 2011 ESPP is 2.0 million shares, subject to adjustment. The 2011 ESPP is a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Code and was approved by our stockholders at the annual meeting on August 10, 2011.

The purpose of the 2011 ESPP is to provide employees of the Company and its designated subsidiaries with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. Accordingly, the 2011 ESPP offers eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a discount to the market value through voluntary systematic payroll deductions. The purchase price for each purchase period will be 85% of the fair market value of a share of our Common Stock on the purchase date, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Unless sooner terminated by the board of directors, the 2011 ESPP will remain in effect until December 31, 2020.

The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2014, with respect to compensation plans under which shares of our Common Stock could have been issued.

	Number of Securities to be Issued Upon Exercise of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights			Weighted Average Exercise Price of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights			Number of Securities Remaining Available for Future issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

OVERVIEW

We are an innovator and provider of light emitting diode (“LED”) lighting technology. We design, develop, manufacture and market advanced illumination products that exclusively use LEDs as their light source. Our product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) used in existing light fixtures as well as purpose-built LED-based luminaires (light fixtures). Our lamps and luminaires are used for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications and include LED lighting technology whose light and color are tuned to achieve specific biological effects. We believe our proprietary technology, unique designs and key relationships throughout the LED lighting supply chain position us favorably to capitalize on the expanding acceptance of LEDs as a lighting source.

Our strategic plan for the next three fiscal years consists of creating strong digital lighting brands in the consumer, residential, commercial and industrial markets. We believe that developing innovative and differentiated brands will deliver strong financial returns and a more loyal user base that is less price sensitive. We intend to continue to implement a nimble and agile “go-to-market” business model and manufacturing and product development system to streamline the processes used to introduce new products. We also intend to continue focusing on developing breakthrough innovation and on becoming a market maker in targeted value-added, high-margin segments within the lighting market. Finally, we plan to reduce our cost structure, preserve cash flow and strengthen liquidity to enhance our financial position.

Over the past few years, we have focused on expanding and optimizing our global supply chain to meet forecasted demand for our products while addressing the inefficiencies that have compressed our gross margin and overall financial performance in prior periods such as costs incurred to expedite the production or delivery of component parts. We anticipate long-term gross margin improvement as we continue to execute on our initiatives. We completed one of our most critical initiatives in 2014 with the transition of the manufacturing of our high volume lamps from Mexico and Satellite Beach to our contract manufacturing partners in Asia, from which we source the majority of our components. We began this transition in the third quarter of 2013, and completed it during the first half of 2014. We anticipate these actions will result in improved gross margin, as well as a more optimized product supply in future periods.

We continue to focus on increasing our brand awareness and improving our product promotion through prominent displays at our retailers and by conducting high visibility national media promotions with our key customers. In October 2013, we launched our GoodNight and Awake&Alert lights, the world’s first biologically corrected consumer lighting products. The GoodNight light has a patented spectral filter that greatly reduces blue light and supports the body’s natural melatonin production designed to naturally promote healthy sleep patterns. The Awake&Alert light has a blue enriched spectrum designed to naturally enhance alertness. We continue to work with major media outlets, grant interviews and work with key consumer influencers to gain greater visibility for our brand and our scientifically proven technology. In 2013 we were featured in Men’s Health magazine, Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic, Popular Science, Wall Street Journal online and ABC newswire. During 2014 we were featured on the Dr. OZ Show, The Rachael Ray Show, Live! With Kelly and Michael, Architectural SSL and other prominent national and local news affiliates. Additionally, in 2014, we were ranked in the Top 500 of Deloitte’s 2014 Technology Fast 500™ in North America for the third consecutive year.

Financial Results

The following table sets forth our revenue, cost of goods sold and gross deficit for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012:

	Years Ended December 31,
	2014			2013			2012

Revenue	$	91,284,860		$	83,221,557		$	127,111,351
Cost of goods sold		87,702,728			98,043,280			146,902,807

Gross deficit	$	3,582,132		$	(14,821,723	)	$	(19,791,456	)

GAAP gross profit percentage		3.9	%		-17.8	%		-15.6	%

Our revenue is primarily derived from sales of our LED-based retrofit lamps and luminaires. Our revenue increased $8.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase in revenue primarily resulted from a $27.1 million increase in sales to The Home Depot, Inc. (“The Home Depot”) for the year ended December 31, 2014 due to increased sales of our products at its stores. Our increase in sales to The Home Depot was partially offset by a $19.1 million aggregate decrease in sales to multiple other customers. We experienced a $43.9 million decrease in sales during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, which primarily reflected the loss of Osram Sylvania as a customer in late 2012 and a reduction in sales to The Home Depot for 2013. We had no sales to Osram Sylvania during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $27.0 million in sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, we experienced a $15.1 million decrease in sales to The Home Depot for the year ended December 31, 2013, resulting in part from its decision not to carry our luminaire product line in 2013, which represented $11.0 million of sales for the year ended December 31, 2012, with the balance of the decrease during the year ended December 31, 2013 resulting from lower sales of our lamp products to The Home Depot primarily due to a decrease in The Home Depot’s targeted inventory levels.

We continue to pursue new relationships with retailers and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) to help increase our sales. In addition, we have significantly increased the roster of distributors and independent sales agents that sell our products and added experienced professionals to our direct sales force to increase the frequency and impact of our activities with key national accounts that are targets for potential adoption of LED lighting.

Our gross margins are principally driven by the mix and quantity of products we sell to The Home Depot and our other customers. Our financial results are dependent upon the operating costs associated with our supply chain, including materials, labor and freight, and the level of our sales, distribution and administrative, research and development and other operating expense. We continuously seek to improve our existing products and to bring new products to market. As a result, many of our products have short life cycles and therefore, product life cycle planning is critical. At times we may purchase excess components and other materials used in the manufacture and assembly of our products or we may manufacture finished products in excess of demand. In addition, components, materials and products may become obsolete earlier than expected. These circumstances can lead to inventory valuation allowances and provisions for expected losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments. When these circumstances are present, we may also incur additional expense as we adjust our supply chain and product life-cycle planning.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the improvement in our gross margin was primarily attributed to our transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia, which was substantially complete as of June 30, 2014. This improvement was partially offset by a $4.7 million inventory write-off and a $507,000 provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments. Our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2013 was negatively affected primarily by an $11.4 million inventory valuation allowance and a $2.3 million provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments. In addition, our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2013 was affected by the mix of products sold and the impact of a price increase imposed on us by our contract manufacturer in Mexico effective March 2013. We were in the process of transitioning to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia, but the impact of the price increase continued throughout 2013. Our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2012 was negatively affected primarily by an inventory valuation allowance of $15.8 million and a $5.6 million provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments due to the restructuring of our product lines. In addition, our gross margin was negatively impacted by $1.0 million in price adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Our gross margin for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2012 was also impacted by a non-cash sales incentive expense related to the warrant we issued to The Home Depot (the “THD Warrant”) on January 13, 2011 in connection with the Strategic Purchasing Agreement, which we entered into with The Home Depot in July 2010. The THD Warrant provides The Home Depot with the right to purchase up to 5,123,715 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.95 per share subject to certain vesting conditions related to The Home Depot’s gross product orders from us. Our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2012 was reduced by non-cash charges of $103,000 and $458,000, respectively, which represents the fair value of the portion of the THD Warrant that vested in October 2014 and September 2012, respectively. Excluding the impact of the applicable non-cash charge, our revenue would have been $103,000 higher, or $91.4 million, for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the $91.3 million reported, and $458,000 higher, or $127.6 million, for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the $127.1 million reported.

Excluding the impact of the inventory valuation allowance and the provision for losses on purchase commitments, our cost of goods sold would have been $82.5 million (or a gross margin of 9.8%) for the year ended December 31, 2014, $84.3 million (or a negative gross margin of 1.3%) for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $125.5 million (or a gross margin of 1.6%) for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Although our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to the assessment of our operating performance and trends. As part of our ongoing review of financial information related to our business, we regularly use non-GAAP measures, in particular, non-GAAP adjusted gross margin and non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of revenue, as we believe they provide meaningful insight into our business and useful information with respect to the results of our business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, the comparable GAAP financial measures and are intended to supplement our financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe the adjusted presentation below provides useful information regarding the trend in gross margin percentage based on revenue from sales of our continuing products to customers and is a measurement of our business performance used by management. Excluding non-cash expenses for stock based compensation, restructuring expenses, impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets and depreciation and amortization, total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased 34.0% while revenue increased 9.7% compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased 13.6% while revenue decreased 34.5% compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Total operating expenses represented 39.0% of adjusted revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 64.8% and 49.0% of adjusted revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the decrease in non-GAAP adjusted operating expense as a percentage of revenue was due primarily to significant cost cutting measures taken in 2014 as well as the $8.2 million increase in non-GAAP adjusted revenue.

During 2013 and the first half of 2014, we adapted our supply chain and logistics processes to improve our ability to provide more efficient service to our customers and focus our efforts on developing innovative products. We continued to make improvements in our forecasting and finished goods inventory management, continued the transition of our manufacturing processes to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia and continued to enhance our new product innovation process.

We believe that the changes we initiated in 2013 improved our management and manufacturing infrastructure, expanded our ability to source components and manufacture our products internationally and positioned us for organic growth. We believe these improvements will position us to capitalize on the innovative, science based and creative engineering talent at our Melbourne, Florida headquarters, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage. In addition to developing products targeted at mainstream retail and commercial lighting, we are seeking to expand our product offerings to compete across multiple industry verticals.

LED LIGHTING INDUSTRY TRENDS

There are a number of industry factors that affect our business and results of operations including, among others:

•

Rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting products. Our potential for growth will be driven by the rate and extent of adoption of LED lighting within the general illumination market and our ability to affect this rate of adoption. Although LED lighting is relatively new and faces significant challenges before achieving widespread adoption, its adoption has grown in recent years. Innovations and advancements in LED lighting technology that improve product performance and reduce product cost continue to enhance the value proposition of LED lighting for general illumination and expand its potential commercial applications.

•

External legislation and subsidy programs concerning energy efficiency. The United States and many countries in the European Union and elsewhere have already instituted, or have announced plans to institute, government regulations and programs designed to encourage or mandate increased energy efficiency in lighting. These actions include in certain cases banning the sale after specified dates of certain forms of incandescent lighting, which is advancing the adoption of more energy efficient lighting solutions such as LEDs. In addition, the growing demand for electricity is increasingly driving utilities and governmental agencies to provide financial incentives such as rebates for energy efficient lighting technologies in an effort to mitigate the need for investments in new electrical generation capacity. While this trend is generally positive for us, from time to time there have been political efforts in the United States to change or limit the effectiveness of these regulations.

•

Intellectual property. LED market participants rely on patented and non-patented proprietary information relating to product development, manufacturing capabilities and other core competencies of their business. Protection and licensing of intellectual property is critical. Therefore, LED lighting industry participants often take steps such as additional patent applications, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements as well as other security measures. To enforce or protect intellectual property rights, market participants commonly commence or threaten litigation.

•

Intense and constantly evolving competitive environment. Competition in the LED lighting market is intense. Many companies have made significant investments in LED lighting development and production equipment. Traditional lighting companies and new entrants are investing in LED based lighting products as LED adoption has gained momentum. Product pricing pressures are significant and market participants often undertake pricing strategies to gain or protect market share, enhance sales of their previously manufactured products and open new applications to LED based lighting solutions. To remain competitive, market participants must continuously increase product performance and reduce costs.

RECENT EVENTS

On January 30, 2015, we issued 11,525 units of our securities (the “Series J Securities”) for gross proceeds of approximately $11.5 million, with each Series J Security consisting of (a) one share of our Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series J Preferred Stock”) and (b) a warrant (the “Series J Warrants”) to purchase 2,650 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock.

The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a Series J Securities subscription agreement with LSGC Holdings III LLC (“Holdings III”), an affiliate of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus Capital”), who together with its affiliates is our controlling stockholder.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and consolidated results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our actual results may differ from these estimates. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based upon historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. These estimates may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained and our operating environment changes. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Accounts Receivable

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount when our products are shipped to customers or, in the case of certain custom lighting projects, upon the completion of specific milestone billing requirements. Our accounts receivable balance is recorded net of allowances for amounts not expected to be collected from our customers. This allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on historical collection experience, aging of receivables and known collectability issues. We write off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent, based upon age or customer circumstances that such amounts will not be collected. We review our allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis. Recovery of bad debt amounts previously written off are recorded as a reduction of bad debt expense in the period the payment is collected. Generally, we do not require collateral for our accounts receivable and we do not regularly charge interest on past due amounts.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and have historically consisted of raw materials and purchased components and subsystems, work-in-process and finished lighting products, but currently consist almost exclusively of finished lighting products due to our transition to contract manufacturers,. We use a standard costing methodology, which approximates actual cost on a weighted average basis to value our inventories and we review our standard costs of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventory on a periodic basis to ensure that our inventories approximate current actual costs. Any purchase price variance or variances related to labor and overhead that would indicate a loss on disposition of inventory is recorded to cost of goods sold in the statement of operations at the end of each quarter. Market is determined based upon current sales transactions of the underlying inventory less the cost of disposal.

Significant changes in our strategic plan, including changes in product mix, product demand, slow product adoption, rapid technological changes and new product introductions and enhancements could result in excess or obsolete inventory. We evaluate inventory levels and expected usage on a quarterly basis to specifically identify obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if a change in the assumptions used in determining the value of our inventory has occurred. One of the key assumptions in determining whether our inventory is considered excess and obsolete is the expected demand of our finished goods inventory, including consumption of raw materials and work in process to meet our demand forecasts. We generally determine our product demand forecast by considering factors such as backlog, recent sales and order experience and expectations of future demand based on our planning and forecasting with our key customers. Based on the early stage and acceptance of LED retrofit lamps and luminaries, limited historical sales and orders information, and the overall uncertainty as to the timing of adoption of the LED lighting technologies, there is significant uncertainty regarding our estimate of product demand.

On a quarterly basis, we also consider the need to record a lower of cost or market adjustment for our raw materials and finished goods inventory. The market value of finished goods is determined based upon current sales transactions, less the cost of disposal of the respective finished goods. The write-down of inventory to the lower of cost or market creates a new cost basis that cannot be marked up even if there are subsequent changes in the underlying facts and circumstances.

Revenue Recognition

Product sales are generally recorded when our products are shipped and title passes to customers. Where sales of product are subject to certain customer acceptance terms, revenue from the sale is recognized once these terms have been met.

Income Taxes

We employ the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards, and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are reversed.

We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount which, we estimate, is more likely than not to be realized. Our ability to realize our deferred tax assets is generally dependent on the generation of taxable income during the future periods in which the temporary differences are deductible and the net operating losses can be offset against taxable income. If we were to determine that we would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, the resulting adjustment to deferred tax assets would increase net earnings in the period such a determination was made.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets such as property, equipment and definite lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In making these determinations, we use certain assumptions, including, but not limited to: (i) estimations of the fair market value of the assets and (ii) estimations of the future cash flows expected to be generated by these assets, which are based on additional assumptions such as asset utilization, length of service the asset will be used in our operations and estimated salvage values. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds fair value.

Financial Operations Overview

Revenue

Our revenue is derived primarily from the sale of our LED-based retrofit lamps and luminaires for indoor and outdoor general illumination applications in the residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure markets. Our revenue is dependent on the continuing adoption of LED lighting in our target markets which, in turn, relies on ongoing improvements in LED lighting performance as well as reductions in LED lighting cost. We expect our selling prices to continue to decline over time and anticipate that these declines would be offset by increases in sales volume. Our product revenue is also impacted by our ability to access end users of LED lighting products. We depend heavily on the strength of our relationships with certain retail and OEM customers, specifically The Home Depot, which provide us with access to residential and commercial end users of LED lighting products. We may experience significant inflections in growth as we enter into relationships with partners such as these and we will seek to develop similar relationships with new customers. Conversely, any deterioration in our relationships with these customers or in their activities in LED lighting could negatively impact our revenue. The Home Depot accounted for 80%, 55% and 48% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and we expect revenue from The Home Depot to increase as we further expand the number of our products that we sell to it. The success of our direct sales efforts and our ability to grow and effectively manage the roster of distributors and independent sales agents that sell our products is also critical to our business.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of raw materials such as purchased components, including packaged LEDs and subsystems used in the manufacture and assembly of our products and products from our contract manufacturers as well as the cost of related inbound freight, manufacturing labor, production overhead and warranty costs. We also include provisions for excess and obsolete inventory and non-cancellable purchase commitments in our cost of goods sold. In addition, the cost of the services provided by our contract manufacturing partners is included in cost of goods sold. We source our manufactured products based on sales projections and customer orders.

Currently, purchased products from our contract manufacturers represent the largest portion of our cost of goods sold. On a per unit basis, these costs generally decrease as we gain purchasing scale with increases in our sales. In periods of rapidly increasing demand, however, we may incur higher costs to ensure an adequate supply of products and components and to expedite shipping by means of premium inbound freight. These costs are typically higher the more dependent we are on a limited number of suppliers for specific products and the greater the distance is between our production sites and such suppliers. We have historically incurred higher costs to the extent our supply chain management and production processes resulted in larger physical inventory variances or lower yields. With the transition to our contract manufacturers, we believe we will see continued improvement in our gross profit due to our increased ability to manage our inventory costs. Our contract manufacturers provide improved manufacturing capacity, which we expect will contribute to reductions in our lead time requirements for most products and reduce the amount of inventory we will be required to carry in the future. In addition, the transition to contract manufacturers has led to a reduction in overhead and labor costs.

During 2014, our cost of goods sold continued to be impacted by our ability to accurately forecast product demand and manage the procurement and availability of our raw materials inventory, which also impacted our manufacturing labor cost by: (i) reducing idle time for workers awaiting missing components and (ii) mitigating the need for costly overtime labor to make up for lost worker time. Our raw materials and manufacturing labor costs were also dependent on our ability to reduce the component count and cost as well as manufacturing complexity of our products through innovative designs. The cost of production overhead generally declines on a per unit basis with an increase in throughput at our facilities through better execution and higher volumes of production. Accordingly, newly introduced products typically have higher per unit costs as we gain supply chain and manufacturing process efficiencies. Our warranty costs depend both on the quality of our manufacturing processes as well as our ability to design products for greater reliability.

Our gross margin is also affected by a number of other factors, including the average selling price of our products and our ability to offset declining prices with lower production costs. Our mix of products sold and the customers to whom they are sold also impact our gross margin as certain of our products have higher levels of profitability and we may contractually price our products at lower levels for certain customers based on volume expectations, contract duration and our own cost reduction roadmap. To the extent we have had temporary manufacturing or supply chain inefficiencies, implementation of our cost reduction roadmap may have been delayed resulting in unplanned declines in gross margin for certain products until these inefficiencies were addressed.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consist of selling, distribution and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. Personnel-related expenses comprise the most significant component of these expenses. In any particular period, the timing of additional hires or layoffs could materially affect our operating expenses, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue.

Selling, Distribution and Administrative Expenses. Selling, distribution and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, sales commissions, samples and other marketing costs for new products and customer demonstrations, fees for professional services, public company costs, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, cost of marketing materials and other corporate communications, customer service expenses, and direct and allocated facilities and other related overhead costs. Professional services consist principally of external legal, accounting, tax and other consulting services. Public company costs include director fees, directors’ and officers’ insurance premiums, costs of compliance with securities, corporate governance and other regulations and investor relations expenses. Certain of these expenses, and in particular legal expenses due to patent and other litigation, are inherently hard to predict and may vary materially from period to period. Unbillable freight costs that are incurred to deliver products to our customers but for which they are not separately billed are also included in selling, distribution and administrative expenses. We expect to incur lower selling, distribution and administrative expenses as we recognize savings related to our restructuring and cost savings efforts implemented in 2013 and 2014.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses for employees engaged in the development of new products, the enhancement of existing products and research into new platform technologies related to power supplies, optics, thermal management and intelligent controls as well as into emerging uses for LED lighting including in biological applications. Research and development expenses also include costs of lab materials and prototypes related to these activities and allocated facilities and other related overhead costs. We expense all of our research and development costs as they are incurred. Research and development expense is reported net of any funding received under contracts with governmental agencies and commercial customers that are considered to be cost sharing arrangements with no contractually committed deliverable.

Restructuring Expenses. We record restructuring expenses associated with management-approved restructuring plans to reorganize one or more of our business functions or to remove duplicative headcount and infrastructure associated with one or more locations. These items primarily include estimates of employee separation costs, non-cash asset impairment charges related to the impairment of equipment and the full amounts payable pursuant to remaining lease obligations (net of anticipated sublease income), which we refer to as accrued rent costs. The timing of associated cash payments is dependent upon the type of restructuring expense and can extend over a multi-year period. Restructuring expenses are recorded based upon planned employee termination dates, site closures and consolidation plans and are not anticipated to be recurring.

Revenue

Revenue increased $8.1 million, or 9.7%, to $91.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $83.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in revenue was primarily a result of a $27.0 million increase in sales to The Home Depot during the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to sales for the year ended December 31, 2013, with a $19.2 million offsetting decrease in sales to multiple other customers.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $10.3 million, or 10.5%, to $87.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $98.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to an $8.5 million decrease in the provision for inventory write-offs for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and the impact of our on-going transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia during the year ended December 31, 2014. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue decreased for the year ended December 31, 2014 to 96.1% (or gross margin of 3.9%) as compared to 117.8% (or negative gross margin of 17.8%) for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Excluding the impact of the provisions for inventory write-offs, our cost of goods sold was $82.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 2.2%, as compared to $84.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease in non-GAAP cost of goods sold corresponds to the impact of our on-going transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia during the year ended December 31, 2014. Excluding the impact of the inventory write-offs discussed above, our non-GAAP gross margin was 9.8% for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to non-GAAP gross margin of negative 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was primarily affected by the impact of our on-going transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia during the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013.

See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measurements under “Overview – Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 23.

Selling, distribution and administrative

Selling, distribution and administrative expenses decreased $17.4 million, or 33.8%, to $34.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $51.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 37.3% for the year ended December 31, 2014 from 61.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in selling, distribution and administrative expenses was primarily due a $5.9 million decrease in personnel-related expense resulting from the workforce reductions in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the first, third and fourth quarters of 2014, a $4.0 million decrease in facilities and personnel costs due to the winding down of our operations in Mexico, India, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, a $2.0 million reduction in advertising, promotions and samples expense, a $1.8 million decrease in freight and logistics, a $1.3 million reduction in commission to agents, a $1.2 million reduction in legal fees, a $532,000 reduction in consulting fees and a $413,000 reduction in software expenses.

Research and development

Research and development expenses decreased $4.7 million, or 45.4%, to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 6.2% for the year ended December 31, 2014 from 12.4% for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to a $3.9 million decrease in personnel-related expense driven by the workforce reductions in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the third and fourth quarters of 2014 and a $743,000 decrease in prototyping, external testing and tooling expense as we continued our efforts to reduce our costs in 2014.

Restructuring expenses

Restructuring expenses decreased $1.2 million, or 25.5%, to $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. Restructuring expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014 consisted of $2.5 million in severance and termination benefits related to additional headcount reductions in the United States and the Netherlands, $637,000 for the impairment and disposal of tooling, production and test equipment, $311,000 in rent related to the move to lower cost facilities for our headquarters in Florida and a net charge of $114,000 related to the final liquidation of our Australian subsidiary, partially offset by a reduction in estimated costs related to the winding down of our Indian subsidiary. Restructuring expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted of $1.4 million in severance and termination benefits related to significant headcount reductions in the United States and the winding down of our business in the Netherlands. In addition, we recorded a $2.6 million expense for the impairment of leasehold improvements, tooling, production and test equipment in the United States, the Netherlands and India and $652,000 in rent and other closing costs related to the winding down of business in the Netherlands, India and Mexico.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $5.4 million, or 61.5%, to $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 3.8% for the year ended December 31, 2014 from 5.6% for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily a result of the impairment of manufacturing equipment and tools and molds during the year ended December 31, 2013 related to our 2013 restructuring efforts, which included a broad based reduction of facilities, as well as additional impairment of manufacturing equipment and tools and molds during 2014, as we continue the transition to lower cost contract manufacturers in Asia.

Interest expense, including related party

Interest expense, including related party interest, increased $2.7 million, or 67.8%, to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the impact of the $30.5 million five-year term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Term Loan”) and the two-year delayed draw term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Delayed Draw Loan”) that we entered into with Medley Capital Corporation (“Medley”) on February 19, 2014. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 consisted of $4.9 million of interest expense and fees related to the Medley Term Loan and the Medley Delayed Draw Loan, $659,000 of interest expense and fees related to the three-year asset based revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL”) that we entered into with FCC, LLC d/b/a First Capital (“First Capital”) on April 25, 2014, $476,000 non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the guaranty of the Company’s obligations under the Medley Term Loan (the “Pegasus Guaranty”) provided by Pegasus Capital Partners IV, L.P. and Pegasus Capital Partners V, L.P. (the “Pegasus Guarantors”), $264,000 of interest expense and fees related to the asset based lending facility we had with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Wells Fargo ABL”) and $426,000 of interest expense related to the Second Lien Letter of Credit Facility with Ares Capital Corporation (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”). Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of $2.7 million of interest related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility and $1.3 million of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL.

(Increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts

The Series J Warrants issued as part of the Series J Securities in January 2014 were accounted for as liabilities through April 14, 2014, the effective date of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock, at which point the Series J Warrants were reclassified as equity instruments. Through April 14, 2014, the fair value of the then-outstanding Series J Warrants was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. The change in fair value of such Series J Warrants was $25.1 million for the period from January 3, 2014, the date of issuance of such Series J Warrants, to April 14, 2014, which was included in the (increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. This change in fair value was impacted primarily by the valuation of such Series J Warrants as of March 31, 2014 based on the Black Scholes valuation method as compared to the fair value at the date of issuance based on an allocation of the cash received for such Series J Securities between Series J Preferred Stock and Series J Warrants.

On February 19, 2014, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Medley Term Loan, we issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to each of Medley and Medley Opportunity Fund II LP (together, the “Medley Warrants”). The Medley Warrants were accounted for as a liability and their fair value was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. As consideration for the Pegasus Guaranty, on February 19, 2014, we issued a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to each of the Pegasus Guarantors (the “Pegasus Guaranty Warrants”). The Pegasus Guaranty Warrants were accounted for as liabilities and their fair value was determined using the Black Scholes valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Medley Warrants and the Pegasus Guaranty Warrants decreased by $5.3 million for the period from February 19, 2014 (the date of issuance of the Medley and Pegasus Guaranty Warrants) to December 31, 2014. This change in fair value is impacted by a number of factors, including changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.

On September 11, 2013, we issued shares of our Series J Preferred Stock to LSGC Holdings II LLC (“Holdings II”) and certain other purchasers and issued a warrant to Holdings II (the “Pegasus Warrant”). The Pegasus Warrant was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. On May 25, 2012, we issued shares of our Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”) to RW LSG Holdings LLC (“Riverwood Holdings”), an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC (“Riverwood Management”) and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (“Riverwood Capital,” and collectively with Riverwood Holdings, Riverwood Management and their affiliates, “Riverwood”) and certain other purchasers and issued a warrant to Riverwood Management (as amended or assigned from time to time, the “Riverwood Warrants”). The Riverwood Warrants were accounted for as liabilities and the fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Pegasus Warrant and the Riverwood Warrants decreased by $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 and $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. These changes in fair value are impacted by a number of factors, including the change of the strike price of the Riverwood Warrants due to the issuance of the Series J Preferred Stock and Series J Warrants, changes in the trading price of our Common Stock and changes in risk-free interest rates.

Other (expense) income, net

Other expense, net decreased $514,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 to other expense of $267,000 from other income of $247,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 consisted primarily of $262,000 in foreign exchange losses and $5,000 in miscellaneous expense. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of $240,000 in foreign exchange gains and $85,000 in miscellaneous income, partially offset by $77,000 in late payment fees and penalties.

Revenue

Revenue decreased $43.9 million, or 34.5%, to $83.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $127.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in revenue was primarily a result of the loss of Osram Sylvania as a customer in late 2012 and a reduction in sales to The Home Depot in the current year. We had no sales to Osram Sylvania during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $27.0 million in sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, we experienced a $15.1 million decrease in sales to The Home Depot for the year ended December 31, 2013 partially due to its decision to not carry our luminaire product line at the beginning of 2013, which had represented $11.0 million of sales for the year ended December 31, 2012, with the balance of the decrease resulting from lower sales of our lamp products to The Home Depot.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $48.9 million, or 33.3%, to $98.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $146.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to the corresponding decrease in sales and inventory valuation allowances for the year ended December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2013, cost of goods sold included a $11.4 million inventory valuation allowance and a $2.3 million provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments, which is a $7.7 million overall decrease in the aggregate inventory valuation allowances for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2012, cost of goods sold included a $15.8 million inventory valuation allowance and a $5.6 million provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments. Excluding the impact of the inventory valuation allowance and provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments, our cost of goods sold was $84.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $41.1 million, or 32.8% over the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to a 34.1% decrease in revenue (34.3% excluding the non-cash charge for the THD Warrant in 2012).

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue increased for the year ended December 31, 2013 to 117.8% (or a negative gross margin of 17.8%) as compared to 115.6% (or a negative gross margin of 15.6%) for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our gross margin for the years ended December 31, 2012 was also negatively impacted by non-cash charges related to the THD Warrant that reduced our revenue by $458,000, and the inventory valuation allowance and provision for expected losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments. Excluding the impact of these provisions, our non-GAAP adjusted gross margin percentage was negative 1.1% for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to a non-GAAP gross margin of 1.6% for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Excluding the impact of the inventory valuation allowance and provision for expected losses on non-cancelable purchase commitments, the increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to the mix of products sold, a $3.2 million standard cost adjustment and a $2.0 million increase in warranty expense. The $3.2 million standard cost adjustment was caused by reductions in inventory costs as we transitioned to our Asian contract manufacturers and the $2.0 million increase in warranty expense was due to an increase in the number of products returned under our standard warranty and the estimated expenses related to failure rates on two of our replacement lamps product lines sold in 2011 and 2012.

See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measurements under “Overview – Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 23.

Selling, distribution and administrative

Selling, distribution and administrative expenses decreased $9.5 million, or 15.6%, to $51.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $60.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, but increased as a percentage of revenue to 61.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 47.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in selling, distribution and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $4.4 million decrease in personnel related costs, a $2.1 million decrease due to the closing of our facilities in Mexico, a $1.9 million decrease in consulting costs, a $1.1 million decrease in freight and logistics resulting primarily from the decrease in revenue, a $992,000 decrease in stock based compensation to our directors and a $594,000 decrease in travel and entertainment costs, offset by a $1.9 million increase in professional fees, primarily due to increased legal costs.

Research and development

Research and development expenses increased $267,000, or 2.7%, to $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 12.4% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 7.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to an increase of $378,000 in personnel related costs and an increase of $311,000 in consulting costs partially offset by a $436,000 decrease in prototyping and external testing expenses resulting from our implementation of cost reduction measures.

Restructuring expenses

Restructuring expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 25.0%, to $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Restructuring expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted of $1.4 million in severance and termination benefits related to significant headcount reductions in the United States and the winding down of our business in the Netherlands. In addition, we recorded a $2.6 million expense for the impairment of leasehold improvements, tooling, production and test equipment in the United States, the Netherlands and India and $652,000 in rent and other closing costs related to the winding down of business in the Netherlands, India and Mexico. Restructuring expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted of $4.2 million in severance and termination benefits related to significant headcount reductions in Mexico in May 2012, additional headcount reductions in Mexico in September 2012 and additional headcount reductions in Mexico to be completed in 2013, primarily related to the planned transition of production work to our contract manufacturer in Mexico, the replacement of 10 members of management in the United States in conjunction with the completion of an offering of our Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series I Preferred Stock”) on May 25, 2012 (the “Series H and I Preferred Offering”) and the closure of our sales office in Australia. In addition, we recorded a $1.7 million expense for the impairment of leasehold improvements, tooling, production and test equipment in our Mexico plant and $235,000 in costs related to the transfer of production to our contract manufacturer in Mexico from our own facility.

Impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets

As of September 30, 2012, we performed our annual impairment analysis to determine whether any of our intangible assets were impaired. Following our analysis of our amortizable intangible assets related to Lighting Science Group B.V. (“LSGBV”), our Netherlands subsidiary, we determined that certain patents, trademarks, license agreements and customer relationships were impaired. This review included an assessment of cash flow projections, among other factors. The following table summarizes the total impairment charge recorded for the year ended December 31, 2012:

Patents acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV	$	15,984
Trademarks acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		19,541
License agreements acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		44,923
Customer relationships acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		299,089

Total impairment charge	$	379,537

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $311,000, or 3.7%, to $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 10.5% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 6.6% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily a result of the $474,000 increase in depreciation expense due to the purchase of manufacturing equipment and tooling and molds during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. This increase in depreciation expense was partially offset by a $163,000 decrease in amortization expense due primarily to the impairment of certain intangible assets during 2012 that were no longer being amortized.

Interest expense, including related party

Interest expense, including related party interest, decreased $870,000, or 17.8%, to $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the decrease in interest related to the issuance of the Series G Preferred Units (the “Series G Preferred Units”) in 2012, which were converted into shares of our Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of $2.7 million of interest related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility and $1.3 million of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted primarily of $2.7 million of interest related to the Ares Letter of Credit Facility, $1.6 million of interest expense and fees related to the Wells Fargo ABL, $316,000 of financing fees related to our Series G Preferred Units, $250,000 of financing fees paid to Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”) related to the Series G Preferred Units and $11,000 of interest expense related to the debt facilities of LSGBV.

(Increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts

On September 11, 2013, we issued the Pegasus Warrant, which was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. On May 25, 2012, we issued the Riverwood Warrant, which was accounted for as a liability and its fair value was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method. The fair value of the outstanding Pegasus Warrant and Riverwood Warrants decreased by $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to the value of the Series J Preferred Stock issued in September 2013, the negotiated adjustment to the conversion price of the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock from $1.18 to $0.95 per share in connection with an offering of Series J Preferred Stock and a decrease in the trading price of our Common Stock during the period. The fair value of the outstanding Riverwood Warrants decreased by $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to a decrease in the price of our Common Stock during the period.

Dividends on preferred stock

Dividends on preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted of $1.8 million of dividends incurred on outstanding shares of the Series G Preferred Stock, which were initially issued on November 17, 2011 and converted into Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series H and I Preferred Offering on May 25, 2012. We incurred no dividends on preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Accretion of preferred stock

Accretion of preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted of $7.5 million incurred on the Series G Preferred Stock, due to the conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock into Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock on May 25, 2012. We incurred no accretion of preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Other income (expense), net

Other income, net increased $82,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 to other income of $247,000 from other income of $166,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of $240,000 in foreign exchange gains and $85,000 in miscellaneous income, partially offset by $77,000 in late payment fees and penalties. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted primarily of $309,000 in foreign exchange gains, partially offset by $132,000 in late payment fees and $11,000 in miscellaneous expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have experienced significant net losses since inception as well as negative cash flows from operations, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $800.3 million and stockholders’ deficit of $487.1 million as December 31, 2014. Our cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory and payment of salaries, benefits and other operating costs. Our primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from various lenders and sales of Common Stock and Preferred Stock to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Capital, including Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings LLC, Holdings II, Holdings III and PCA LSG Holdings LLC (“PCA Holdings”). While Pegasus Capital and its affiliates (collectively, “Pegasus”) have led many of our capital raises, the offerings of our Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock and Series J Preferred Stock also involved and/or were led by parties other than Pegasus.

On February 19, 2014, we entered into the Medley Delayed Draw Loan and the $30.5 million Medley Term Loan. We utilized proceeds from the Medley Term Loan to repay our outstanding obligations under the Wells Fargo ABL and the Ares Letter of Credit Facility.

On April 25, 2014, we entered into the FCC ABL, a three-year revolving credit facility with First Capital. We utilized proceeds from the FCC ABL to repay our outstanding obligations under the Medley Delayed Draw Loan. The Medley Loan Agreement was amended on April 25, 2014 to, among other things, terminate the Medley Delayed Draw Loan and permit the indebtedness under the FCC ABL.

As of December 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million and an additional $3.0 million in restricted cash subject to a cash collateral dominion agreement pursuant to the Medley Term Loan. The FCC ABL provides us with a maximum borrowing capacity of $22.5 million, which capacity is equal to (i) the sum of (A) 85% of our eligible accounts receivable and (B) the lesser of (a) $10 million and (b) the sum of (x) the lesser of (1) 65% of the dollar value of certain eligible inventory and (2) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of such eligible inventory, (y) 65% of certain other inventory and (z) the lesser of (1) $4.5 million and (2) the lesser of 65% of the dollar value, or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value, of eligible inventory that is in-transit, minus (ii) the sum of reserves established by First Capital and the aggregate amount of our outstanding letter of credit obligations (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). We are at all times required to maintain (i) a Borrowing Base that exceeds the FCC ABL and (ii) $3.0 million in restricted cash, pursuant to the Medley Loan Agreement. We are required to comply with certain specified EBITDA requirements, maintain a specified lamp sourcing percentage and comply with maximum capital expenditure limits. As of December 31, 2014, we had $6.4 million outstanding under the FCC ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $8.9 million.

From January 3, 2014 through November 14, 2014, we issued an aggregate of 38,475 units of our Series J Preferred Securities, at a price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $38.5 million. The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to subscription agreements (“Series J Subscription Agreements”) entered into with Riverwood Holdings and Riverwood Capital, Serengeti Lycaon MM L.P. (“Serengeti Lycaon”), Serengeti Opportunities MM L.P, (“Serengeti Opportunities,” and together with Serengeti Lycaon and their affiliates “Serengeti”), PCA Holdings, Holdings II and certain other accredited investors. We issued 13,000, 14,000, 6,000, 2,860, 2,570 and 45 shares of Series J Securities to Serengeti, PCA Holdings, Holdings II, Riverwood Holdings, Zouk and other accredited investors, respectively.

On January 30, 2015, we issued 11,525 units of our Series J Securities, at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $11.5 million. These Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a subscription agreement with Holdings III.

Commencing on September 25, 2015, Riverwood and Pegasus will have the right to cause us to redeem their shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. If either Riverwood or Pegasus elects to cause us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, all other holders of the applicable series will have the right to redeem their shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, respectively. In addition, commencing 10 business days after September 25, 2015, each of Portman Limited and affiliates of Zouk Holdings Limited, jointly, has a contractual right to require us to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock. We are also required to redeem the outstanding shares of our Series J Preferred Stock (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or any other security that ranks junior to, or pari passu with, the Series J Preferred Stock and (b) on November 14, 2019, at the election of the holders of Series J Preferred Stock. Each holder of our preferred stock would also have the right to require us to redeem such shares upon our uncured material breach of our obligations under our outstanding indebtedness or the uncured material breach of the terms of the certificates of designation governing our preferred stock. In total, our maximum payment obligation in the event of a redemption of all the Series H, I and J Preferred Stock is $492.0 million. Finally, we could be required to repay our outstanding obligations under the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL prior to any such redemption of shares of Series H, I or J Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2014, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under each of these loan facilities was $34.2 million.

Any redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock would be limited to funds legally available therefor under Delaware law. The certificates of designation governing our preferred stock provide that if there is not a sufficient amount of cash or surplus available to pay for a redemption of Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock, then the redemption shall be paid out of the remaining assets of the Company. In addition, the certificate of designation governing the Series J Preferred Stock provides that we are not permitted or required to redeem any shares of Series J Preferred Stock for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under our credit facilities. If we do not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock in connection with a Special Redemption of the Series J Preferred Stock, we will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders. As of December 31, 2014, based solely on a review of our balance sheet, we did not have legally available funds under Delaware law to satisfy a redemption of our Preferred Shares. In addition, based solely on our projected balance sheet as of September 25, 2015, we do not believe that we will have legally available funds on or before September 25, 2015 to satisfy any such redemption.

We believe we will have sufficient capital to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months based on our current business plan and the assumptions set forth therein. Our current business plan includes a focus on increasing revenue by updating and expanding our product offerings and capitalizing on the known product needs of our existing customers, improving gross margins by significantly leveraging contract manufacturers in Asia and reducing operating costs, primarily through the restructuring initiated in 2013 and continued throughout 2014. In future periods, if we do not adequately execute upon our business plan or our assumptions or forecasts do not prove to be accurate, we could exhaust our available capital resources, which could require us to seek additional sources of liquidity or further reduce our expenditures to preserve our cash. Our sources of liquidity may not be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all.

Operating lease obligations include rental amounts due on leases of certain office and manufacturing space, as well as automobiles, office equipment and manufacturing equipment under the terms of non-cancelable operating leases. These leases expire at various times through December 2019. Some of the lease agreements provide for adjustments for increases in base rent (up to specific limits), property taxes and general property maintenance that would be recorded as rent expense, if applicable.

Cash flows

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

	Years Ended December 31,
Cash flow activities:	2014			2013			2012
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(41,052,374	)	$	(60,352,551	)	$	(63,875,755	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(918,751	)		(2,578,590	)		(6,315,944	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		32,113,623			58,036,915			83,020,130

Operating activities

Cash used in operating activities is net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $41.1 million, $60.4 million and $63.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 included certain non-cash reconciliation items comprised primarily of a $15.7 million net increase in fair value of warrants, a $4.7 million inventory write down, $4.1 million of stock-based compensation expense, $3.4 million in depreciation and amortization and $2.8 million in amortization of debt issuance costs, accretion and interest accrual on the FCC ABL, Medley Delayed Draw Loan and the Medley Term Loan. The decrease in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014, excluding these non-cash reconciliation items, was primarily a result of decreased operating expenses. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 included certain non-cash reconciliation items comprised primarily of a $11.4 million inventory valuation allowance, $8.7 million in depreciation and amortization, $7.8 million of stock-based compensation expense, a $2.4 million impairment of property and equipment, a $2.3 million provision for expected losses on purchase commitments and a $245,000 provision for doubtful accounts and partially offset by a $3.9 million decrease in fair value of warrants. The decrease in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013, excluding these non-cash reconciliation items, was primarily a result of decreased operating expenses Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 included certain non-cash reconciliation items comprised primarily of a $15.8 million inventory valuation allowance, $8.5 million of stock-based compensation expense, $8.4 million in depreciation and amortization, $7.5 million accretion of preferred stock, a $5.6 million provision for expected losses on purchase commitments, $2.1 million in goodwill and other long-lived assets impairment, $1.8 million in accrued dividends on preferred stock, a $577,000 provision for doubtful accounts and a $458,000 reduction for the fair value of the portion of the THD Warrant that vested during the year ended December 31, 2012, partially offset by an $8.5 million decrease in fair value of warrants. The increase in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012, excluding these non-cash reconciliation items, was primarily a result of increased operating expenses and the reduction in other income due to the one-time receipt of $7.0 million of proceeds from a key man life insurance policy in 2011.

Net cash used in operating activities was driven by our net losses and changes in working capital. For the year ended December 31, 2014, inventories, net of the inventory write down, increased $9.6 million due to the purchase of finished goods, accounts receivable increased $2.7 million and prepaid expenses increased $1.0 million. This use of cash was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $3.0 million and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $2.8 million. For the year ended December 31, 2013, inventories, net of the inventory valuation allowance, increased $7.3 million due to the purchase of materials and components. This use of cash was partially offset by a $5.1 million decrease in accounts receivable due to the reduction in revenues, an increase of $980,000 in accounts payable, a decrease of $811,000 in other current and long term assets and a decrease of $556,000 in prepaid expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2012, inventories, net of the inventory valuation allowance, increased $5.7 million due to the receipt of materials and components and the build-up of finished products and we utilized $14.6 million to decrease accounts payable as we paid down certain outstanding balances. These uses of cash were more than offset by a $15.3 million decrease in accounts receivable due to on-going collection efforts, a decrease of $6.7 million in prepaid expenses and a $2.9 million decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Investing activities

Cash used in investing activities primarily relates to the purchase of property and equipment and capitalized patents. Net cash used in investing activities was $919,000, $2.6 million and $6.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily related to a decrease in the purchase of tooling, production and test equipment as we transitioned to contract manufacturers in Asia and focused on cost saving measures.

The decrease in cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily related to a decrease in the purchase of manufacturing equipment for our manufacturing facility in Monterrey, Mexico, as we transitioned to Jabil, our contract manufacturer in Mexico.

Financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities has historically been composed of net proceeds from various debt facilities and the issuance of common and preferred stock. Net cash provided by financing activities was $32.1 million, $58.0 million and $83.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 included the issuance of Series J Securities for aggregate proceeds of $38.5 million and proceeds of $29.8 million on the Medley Term Loan, partially offset by net payments on our lines of credit and other short term borrowings, including the net repayment of $33.8 million, in the aggregate, on the Wells Fargo ABL, the Ares Letter of Credit Facility, the Medley Delayed Draw Loan and the FCC ABL, $3.2 million in debt issuance costs and $1.2 million in fees and commissions paid in connection with the issuance of the Series J Securities. The cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 included net draws on our lines of credit of $38.7 million, the issuance of Series J Preferred Stock for aggregate proceeds of $20.0 million and $39,000 in proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock under equity compensation plans, partially offset by $659,000 in fees and commissions on the Series J private placement. The cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 included the issuance of Series H Preferred Stock for aggregate proceeds of $108.2 million, issuance of Series G Preferred Stock for aggregate proceeds of $18.3 million, issuance of Series I Preferred Stock for aggregate proceeds of $6.4 million and $894,000 in proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock under equity compensation plans, partially offset by net repayments on our lines of credit of $32.7 million, the $10.2 million payment in settlement of a repurchase obligation with LSGC Holdings and $7.6 million in placement agent commissions on certain private placements.

The financial statements required by this item are included in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K.

None

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.

We carried out an evaluation subsequent to the period covered by this Form 10-K, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who is also our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer at this time (the “Certifying Officer”)), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, the Certifying Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014 were not effective due to the material weaknesses described below.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, the Certifying Officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

•

provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

•

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Thus, any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Certifying Officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) (the “2013 COSO Framework”).

A material weakness in internal control is defined as “a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.” In connection with the assessment described above, we determined that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective at December 31, 2014 due to material weaknesses specific to our inventory valuation methodology and recognition of in-transit inventory liabilities. Specifically, opportunities to improve the following were identified :

•

Consistent application of our spreadsheet formula controls specific to our excess and obsolete inventory valuation calculations; and

•

Design and implementation of a control related to the accounting for the receipt of in-transit inventory and reconciliation of in-transit inventory.

The material weaknesses resulted in the misstatement of inventory and the understatement of cost of goods sold and accounts payable, which was corrected by management with a year-end adjustment that was recorded after December 31, 2014, but prior to the issuance of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014. Accordingly, the year-end adjustment is properly reflected in the consolidated financial statements included as part of this Form 10-K. As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, involving the preparation and reporting of our consolidated financial statements presented in conformity with GAAP.

Subsequent to December 31, 2014, the following are among the key actions taken to our internal controls, which we believe have remediated the identified weaknesses:

•

We have reemphasized the importance of consistent application of the controls over the spreadsheet formulas used in the inventory valuation and enhanced the training of the personnel responsible for preparing and reviewing the spreadsheet; and

•

The loss of certain key accounting and financial personnel caused changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Lighting Science Group Corporation and Subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lighting Science Group Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lighting Science Group Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

LIGHTING SCIENCE GROUP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Overview

Lighting Science Group Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware in 1988 and designs, develops, manufactures and markets general illumination products that exclusively use light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) as their light source. The Company’s product portfolio includes LED-based retrofit lamps (replacement bulbs) that can be used in existing light fixtures and sockets as well as purpose built LED-based luminaires (light fixtures) for many common indoor and outdoor residential, commercial, industrial and public infrastructure lighting applications. The Company assembles and manufactures its products through its contract manufacturers in Asia.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, and customer incentives, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity, foreign currency and energy markets and declines in consumer spending have combined to increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency for the foreign operations of the Company is the local currency of the respective foreign subsidiary. For the operations of Lighting Science Coöperatief U.A. and Lighting Science Group B.V. (“LSGBV”), the Company’s Netherlands based subsidiaries, the functional currency is the Euro, for the operations of Lighting Science Group Mexico SRL, (“LSG Mexico”), the Company’s Mexican subsidiary, the functional currency is the Mexican Peso, for the operations of Lighting Science India Private Limited (“LSIPL”), the Company’s Indian subsidiary, the functional currency is the Indian Rupee and for the operations of Lighting Science Group HK Limited (“LSGHK”), the Company’s Hong Kong subsidiary, the functional currency is the Hong Kong Dollar. The translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates and for revenue and expense accounts using the average exchange rate for each period during the year. Any gains or losses resulting from the translation are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ (deficit) equity and are excluded from net loss.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of both December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no cash equivalents. The Company regularly maintains cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $4.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash held in banks in the United States in excess of the federally insured limits.

Restricted Cash

As of December 31, 2014, as required by the Company’s five-year term loan (as amended from time to time, the “Medley Term Loan”) with Medley Capital Corporation (“Medley”), the Company was required to maintain a minimum restricted cash balance of $3.0 million to collateralize the Medley Term Loan. As of December 31, 2013, as required by the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility (as amended, the “Wells Fargo ABL”) with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) the Company was required to maintain a minimum qualified cash balance of $5.0 million as a compensating balance against the Wells Fargo ABL. Changes in the restricted cash balance were reflected as a financing activity in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

F-7

Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable at the invoiced amount when its products are shipped to customers or upon the completion of specific milestone billing requirements. The Company’s receivable balance is recorded net of allowances for amounts not expected to be collected from customers. This allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on historical collection experience, aging of receivables and known collectability issues. The Company writes off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent, based upon age or customer circumstances that such amounts will not be collected. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis. Recovery of bad debt amounts previously written off is recorded as a reduction of bad debt expense in the period the payment is collected. Generally, the Company does not require collateral for its accounts receivable and does not regularly charge interest on past due amounts. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s accounts receivable are reflected net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $408,000 and $510,000, respectively.

As of December 31, 2014, $5.4 million of eligible accounts receivable were pledged as collateral for the three year asset based revolving credit facility (as amended from time to time, the “FCC ABL”) entered into on April 25, 2014 with FCC, LLC d/b/a First Capital (“First Capital”). As of December 31, 2013, there were $6.8 million of eligible accounts receivable pledged as collateral for the Wells Fargo ABL.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and have historically consisted of raw materials and purchased components and subsystems, work-in-process and finished lighting products, but currently consist almost exclusively of finished lighting products due to the Company’s transition to contract manufacturers. The Company uses a standard costing methodology, which approximates actual cost on a weighted average basis to value its inventories and the Company reviews its standard costs of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventory on a periodic basis to ensure that its inventories approximate current actual costs. Any purchase price variances related to labor and overhead that would indicate a loss on disposition of inventory is recorded to cost of goods sold in the statement of operations at the end of each reporting period. Market is determined based upon current sales transactions, less the cost of disposal. Work in process and finished lighting products include raw materials, labor and allocated overhead.

Significant changes in the Company’s strategic plan, including changes in product mix, product demand, slow product adoption, rapid technological changes and new product introductions and enhancements could result in excess or obsolete inventory. The Company evaluates inventory levels and expected usage on a periodic basis to specifically identify obsolete, slow-moving or non-salable inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. The write-down of excess and obsolete inventory based on this evaluation creates a new cost basis and is included in cost of goods sold.

On a quarterly basis, the Company considers the need to record a lower of cost or market adjustment for its raw materials and finished goods inventory. The market value of finished goods is determined based upon current sales transactions, less the cost of disposal of the respective finished goods. The write-down of inventory to the lower of cost or market creates a new cost basis that cannot be marked up even if there are subsequent changes in the underlying facts and circumstances.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Equipment under capital leases is stated at the present value of future minimum lease payments. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, as follows:

	Estimated Useful Lives (years)
Leasehold improvements	1-5
Office, furniture and equipment	2-5
Tooling, production and test equipment	2-4

Leasehold improvements and equipment under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the minimum lease term or the estimated useful life of the assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. The costs for major renewals and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. All costs incurred for building of production tooling and molds are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the tooling set or mold.

F-8

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include patents and patents pending. Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective useful lives on a straight-line basis. Finite–lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Long lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Derivative Instruments

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their respective fair values. All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value of such derivatives are measured in each period and are reported in other income (expense).

Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

•

Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

•

Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•

Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, amounts due under lines of credit and other short term borrowings, accrued expenses and note payable are carried at amounts that approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments and/or variable, market driven interest rates.

The Riverwood Warrants, September 2012 Warrants and the Pegasus Commitment (each as defined in Note 11 below), the Pegasus Warrant and Series J Warrants, (each as defined in Note 10 below) and the Medley Warrants and Pegasus Guaranty Warrants (each as defined in Note 9 below) were initially recorded at fair value and subsequently reflected at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the THD Warrant (as defined in Note 12 below) is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method and will be adjusted at each reporting date until they have been earned for each year and these adjustments will be recorded as a reduction in the related revenue (sales incentive) from The Home Depot. Once a portion of the THD Warrant vests it is recorded at its fair value at the end of each subsequent reporting period.

F-9

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue when its products are shipped and title passes to customers. When sales of products are subject to certain customer acceptance terms, revenue from such sales is recognized once these terms have been met. The Company also provides its customers with limited rights of return for non-conforming shipments or product warranty claims.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014‑09”). ASU 2014-09 seeks to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014‑09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014‑09, but the standard is not expected to have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with in-bound freight are included in cost of goods sold. Other shipping and handling costs are included in selling, distribution and administrative expenses and totaled $1.8 million, $3.4 million and $5.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Research and Development

The Company expenses all research and development costs, including amounts for design prototypes and modifications made to existing prototypes, as incurred.

Product Warranties

The Company generally provides a five-year limited warranty covering defective materials and workmanship of its products and such warranty may require the Company to repair, replace or reimburse the purchaser for the purchase price of the product. The estimated costs related to warranties are accrued at the time products are sold based on various factors, including the Company’s stated warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims and the cost to repair or replace its products under warranty. The following table summarizes changes in the warranty provision for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

Warranty provision as of Decmber 31, 2012	$	2,108,012
Additions to provision		4,927,844
Less warranty costs		(3,803,865	)

Warranty provision as of Decmber 31, 2013		3,231,991
Additions to provision		4,752,626
Less warranty costs		(3,195,147	)

Warranty provision as of Decmber 31, 2014	$	4,789,470

Share Based Compensation

The Company recognizes all employee stock based compensation as a cost in the financial statements based on the fair value of the share based compensation award. Equity classified awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the award. The Company estimates grant date fair value using the Black Scholes Merton option pricing model.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had two share based compensation plans. The fair value of share based compensation awards, which historically have included stock options and restricted stock awards, is recognized as compensation expense in the statement of operations. The fair value of stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Option valuation methods require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Measured compensation expense related to such option grants is recognized ratably over the vesting period of the related grants. Restricted stock awards are valued on the date of grant.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in the income tax provision.

F-10

Advertising

Advertising costs, included in selling, distribution and administrative expenses, are expensed when the advertising first takes place. The Company primarily promotes its product lines through print media and trade shows, including trade publications and promotional brochures. Advertising expenses were $198,000, $1.3 million and $872,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a single segment under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 280-10-50, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”. The Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial information at the enterprise level and makes decisions accordingly.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or stockholders' deficit.

NOTE 3: LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced significant net losses as well as negative cash flows from operations since its inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $800.3 million and stockholders’ deficit of $487.1 million as December 31, 2014. The Company’s cash expenditures primarily relate to procurement of inventory, payment of salaries, employee benefits and other operating costs. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from Wells Fargo ABL, which was replaced by the Medley Term Loan in February 2014 and the FCC ABL in April 2014, as well as sales of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and the Company’s preferred stock to, and short-term loans from, affiliates of Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P. (“Pegasus Capital”), including Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus IV”), LSGC Holdings, LLC (“LSGC Holdings”), LSGC Holdings II, LLC (“Holdings II”), LSGC Holdings III, LLC (“Holdings III”) and PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA Holdings” and collectively with Pegasus Capital, Pegasus IV, LSGC Holdings, Holdings II, Holdings III and their affiliates, “Pegasus”). Pegasus is the Company’s controlling stockholder. While Pegasus has led many of the Company’s capital raises, each of the Series H and I Preferred Offering (defined in Note 11 below), the September 2012 Preferred Offering (as defined in Note 11 below), the Initial Series J Preferred Offering (as defined in Note 10 below) and the Follow-On Series J Offering (as defined in Note 10 below) also involved and/or were led by parties other than Pegasus.

On February 19, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with Medley (as amended from time to time the “Medley Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company obtained the five-year, $30.5 million Medley Term Loan and a two-year delayed draw term loan (the “Medley Delayed Draw Loan”). The Company utilized proceeds from the Medley Term Loan to repay its outstanding obligations under the Wells Fargo ABL and the Second Lien Letter of Credit Facility (the “Ares Letter of Credit Facility”), dated September 20, 2011, between the Company and Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares Capital”).

On April 25, 2014, the Company entered into the FCC ABL, a three-year revolving credit facility with First Capital. The Company utilized proceeds from the FCC ABL to repay its outstanding obligations under the Medley Delayed Draw Loan. The Medley Loan Agreement was amended on April 25, 2014 to, among other things, terminate the Medley Delayed Draw Loan and permit the indebtedness under the FCC ABL. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $6.4 million outstanding under the FCC ABL and additional borrowing capacity of $8.9 million.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million and an additional $3.0 million in restricted cash subject to a cash collateral dominion agreement pursuant to the Medley Term Loan. The FCC ABL provides the Company with a maximum borrowing capacity of $22.5 million, which capacity is equal to (i) the sum of (A) 85% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and (B) the lesser of (a) $10 million and (b) the sum of (x) the lesser of (1) 65% of the dollar value of certain eligible inventory and (2) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of such eligible inventory, (y) 65% of certain other inventory and (z) the lesser of (1) $4.5 million and (2) the lesser of 65% of the dollar value, or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value, of eligible inventory that is in-transit, minus (ii) the sum of reserves established by First Capital and the aggregate amount of the Company’s outstanding letter of credit obligations (collectively, the “Borrowing Base”). The Company is at all times required to maintain (i) a Borrowing Base that exceeds the amount of its outstanding borrowings under the FCC ABL and (ii) $3.0 million in restricted cash pursuant to the Medley Loan Agreement. The Company is required to comply with certain specified EBITDA requirements, maintain a specified lamp sourcing percentage and comply with maximum capital expenditure limits.

Commencing on September 25, 2015, Riverwood (as defined in Note 10 below) and Pegasus will have the right to cause the Company to redeem their shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”) and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series I Preferred Stock”), respectively. If either Riverwood or Pegasus elect to cause the Company to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, all other holders of the applicable series will have the right to redeem their shares of Preferred Stock. In addition, commencing 10 business days after September 25, 2015, each of Portman Limited and affiliates of Zouk Holdings Limited, jointly, has a contractual right to require the Company to redeem its shares of Series H Preferred Stock. The Company is also required to redeem the outstanding shares of its Series J Preferred Stock (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or any other security that ranks junior to, or pari passu with, the Series J Preferred Stock and (b) on November 14, 2019, at the election of the holders of Series J Preferred Stock (a “Special Redemption”). Each holder of the Company’s preferred stock would also have the right to require it to redeem such shares upon the uncured material breach of the Company’s obligations under its outstanding indebtedness or the uncured material breach of the terms of the certificates of designation governing its preferred stock. In total, the maximum payment obligation of the Company in the event of a redemption of all the Series H, I and J Preferred Stock is $492.0 million. Finally, the Company would be required to pay its outstanding obligations under the Medley Term Loan and the FCC ABL prior to any such redemption of shares of Series H, I or J Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2014, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under these loan facilities was $34.2 million.

F-11

Any redemption of the Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock would be limited to funds legally available therefor under Delaware law. The certificates of designation governing the Company's preferred stock provide that if there is not a sufficient amount of cash or surplus available to pay for a redemption of Series H Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock, then the redemption shall be paid out of the remaining assets of the Company. In addition, the Series J Certificate of Designation (as defined in Note 10 below) provides that the Company is not permitted or required to redeem any shares of Series J Preferred Stock for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under the Company’s credit facilities. If the Company does not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock in connection with a Special Redemption of the Series J Preferred Stock, the Company will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders. As of December 31, 2014, based solely on a review of the Company’s balance sheet, the Company did not have legally available funds under Delaware law to satisfy a redemption of its Series H, I or J Preferred Stock. In addition, based solely on the Company's projected balance sheet as of September 25, 2015, the Company does not believe that it will have legally available funds on or before September 25, 2015 to satisfy any such redemption.

On January 30, 2015, the Company issued 11,525 units of its securities (the “Series J Securities”), at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $11.5 million (the “2015 Series J Offering”). Each Series J Security consists of (i) one share of Series J Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 2,650 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “Series J Warrants”). The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to a preferred stock subscription agreement (the “Series J Securities Subscription Agreement”) entered into between the Company and Holdings III.

The Company believes it will have sufficient capital to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months based on its current business plan and assumptions of future results. The current business plan includes a focus on increasing revenue by updating and expanding our product offerings and capitalizing on the known product needs of our existing customers, improving gross margins by significantly leveraging contract manufacturers in Asia and reducing operating costs, primarily through the restructuring initiated in 2013. In future periods, if the Company does not adequately execute upon its business plan or its assumptions or forecasts do not prove to be accurate, the Company could exhaust its available capital resources, which could require the Company to seek to raise additional capital and/or further reduce its expenditures of cash. There can be no assurance that sources of liquidity will be available in an amount or on terms that are acceptable to the Company, if at all.

NOTE 4: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company reviewed the amortizable intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of LSGBV for impairment during the year ended December 31, 2012. An impairment charge was recorded primarily due to LSGBV’s ongoing negative cash flows from operations, and as a result these intangible assets were accounted for at fair value on a non-recurring basis, using Level 3 valuation inputs and were written down to their estimated fair values of $0.

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2014, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values:

	Fair Value Measurement as of December 31, 2014
	Quoted Price in Active Markets for Identical Assets		Significant Other Observable Inputs		Significant Unobservable Inputs
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

NOTE 5: INVENTORIES

Inventories are comprised of the following:

	December 31, 2014		December 31, 2013

Raw materials and components	$	-	$	6,868,139
Work-in-process		-		1,599,089
Finished goods		22,726,162		10,593,891
Total inventory, net	$	22,726,162	$	19,061,119

Consigned inventory is held at third-party locations, including those of the Company’s contract manufacturers. The Company retains title to the inventory until such inventory is purchased by a third-party. Consigned inventory, consisting of raw materials, was $0 and $693,000 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, the Company performs a review of its inventory for estimated obsolete or slow-moving inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. As a result of these reviews, the Company recorded an inventory write-down of $4.7 million, $11.4 million and $15.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, with the expense included in cost of goods sold. As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, inventories are stated net of inventory write-downs of $7.9 million and $24.1 million, respectively. The Company considered a number of factors in estimating the required inventory write downs, including (i) the focus of the business on the next generation of the Company’s products, which utilize lower cost technologies, (ii) the strategic focus on core products to meet the demands of key customers and (iii) the expected demand for the Company’s current generation of products, which are approaching the end of their lifecycle upon the introduction of the next generation of products.

During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $507,000, $2.3 million and $5.6 million, respectively, in provisions for losses on non-cancellable purchase commitments of which $540,000 and $1.6 million were accrued as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which were included in cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Total property and equipment, net	$	2,650,115		$	6,498,605

Depreciation related to property and equipment was $3.3 million, $8.7 million and $8.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Impairment of Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are depreciated over their estimated economic lives. Long-lived assets, including property and equipment, are evaluated to determine whether, in management’s judgment, events or changes in circumstances have occurred that may warrant a revision of the estimated useful life or whether the remaining balance should be evaluated for possible impairment. Such impairment tests compare estimated undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the property and equipment in assessing whether an asset has been impaired. If an impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its fair value based on an estimate of its discounted cash flows.

In September and December 2014, the Company performed an impairment analysis of property and equipment related to its Melbourne, Florida headquarters, in connection with the transition of a majority of the Company’s manufacturing operations to its contract manufacturers in Asia. This impairment analysis included an assessment of the proposed future use of the property and equipment and their estimated useful lives. As a result of this assessment the Company recorded an impairment charge of $637,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, which is included in restructuring expense.

In November and December 2013, the Company performed an impairment analysis of property and equipment related to its Satellite Beach, Florida headquarters, its facility in The Netherlands, LSGBV, and its facility in India, LSIPL, in connection with the transition of a majority of the Company’s manufacturing operations to its contract manufacturers in Asia and the winding down of business in the Netherlands and India. This impairment analysis included an assessment of the proposed future use of the property and equipment and their estimated useful lives. As a result of this assessment the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, which is included in restructuring expense.

In connection with the Company’s September 2012 transition of its manufacturing operations in Mexico to its contract manufacturer in Mexico, Jabil Circuit, Inc. (the “Mexico Closing”), the Company performed an impairment analysis of property and equipment related to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lighting Science Group Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. (“LSG Mexico”). This review included an assessment of the proposed future use of the property and equipment and their estimated useful lives. As a result of this assessment the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, which is included in restructuring expense.

Total intangible amortization expense was $64,000, $40,000 and $203,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Impairment of Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed to determine if their estimable lives have decreased. Long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever, in management’s judgment, conditions indicate a possible impairment. Such impairment tests compare estimated undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value of the asset. If an impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its fair value based on an estimate of its discounted cash flows.

The Company reviewed the amortizable intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of LSGBV for impairment as of September 30, 2012 primarily due to LSGBV’s ongoing negative cash flows from operations, among other factors. This review included an assessment of the current use of these intangible assets and their estimated useful lives. As a result of this review, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $380,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The following table summarizes the total impairment charges recorded by the Company in 2012:

Patents acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV	$	15,984
Trademarks acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		19,541
License agreements acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		44,923
Customer relationships acquired on the acquisition of LSGBV		299,089

Total impairment charge	$	379,537

NOTE 8: DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

The Company capitalizes its costs related to the issuance of long-term debt and amortizes these costs using the effective interest rate method over the life of the loan. Amortization of debt issuance costs and the accelerated write-off of debt issuance costs in connection with refinancing activities are recorded as a component of interest expense. The Company had net debt issuance costs of $3.2 million and $113,000 as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, the current portion of the debt issuance costs was $1.3 million and was included in other current assets. In connection with the FCC ABL, the Medley Delayed Draw Loan and the Medley Term Loan, $6.0 million of debt issuance costs were capitalized, including $2.8 million related to the fair value of the Pegasus Guaranty (as defined in Note 9 below). The Company amortized $1.6 million, $507,000 and $522,000 of debt issuance costs for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE 10: SERIES J REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

Initial Series J Preferred Offering

From September 11, 2013 through November 18, 2013, the Company issued an aggregate of 20,000 shares of its Series J Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series J Preferred Stock”), at a price of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”) for aggregate proceeds of $20.0 million (the “Initial Series J Preferred Offering”). The shares of Series J Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to a preferred stock subscription agreement among the Company, PCA Holdings, Holdings II and RW LSG Holdings LLC, (“Riverwood Holdings”), an affiliate of Riverwood LSG Management Holdings LLC (“Riverwood Management”) and Riverwood Capital Partners L.P. (“Riverwood Capital,” and collectively with Riverwood Holdings, Riverwood Management and their affiliates, “Riverwood”). The Company issued 13,657; 2,500; 2,394 and 1,449 shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Holdings II, PCA Holdings, Riverwood Holdings and other accredited investors, respectively (the “Initial Series J Investors”). As compensation for advisory services provided by Pegasus, on September 11, 2013 the Company issued a warrant to Holdings II (the “Pegasus Warrant”), representing the right to purchase 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a variable exercise price that will be determined on the date of exercise of the Pegasus Warrant.

The Series J Preferred Stock is senior to the Series H Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 11 below), the Series I Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 11 below) and the Common Stock and is entitled to dividends of the same type as any dividends or other distribution of any kind payable or to be made on outstanding shares of Common Stock, on an as converted basis. Each share of Series J Preferred Stock is convertible at any time, at the election of the holder thereof, into the number of shares of Common Stock (the “Optional Conversion Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Stated Value of such shares of Series J Preferred Stock by (b) the $0.95 conversion price, subject to certain adjustments.

The Company is required to redeem all outstanding shares of the Series J Preferred Stock for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount (as defined below) (a) subject to certain limited exceptions, immediately prior to the redemption of a Junior Security; (b) on November 14, 2019, as the Special Redemption; and (c) upon the occurrence of an uncured material breach by the Company of the Series H Certificate of Designation (as defined in Note 11), Series I Certificate of Designation (as defined in Note 11) or Series J Certificate of Designation (as defined below).

F-17

If the Company does not have sufficient capital available to redeem the Series J Preferred Stock upon the exercise of a Special Redemption, the Company will be required to issue a non-interest bearing note or notes (payable 180 days after issuance) in the principal amount of the liquidation amount of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock not redeemed by the Company in connection with such Special Redemption, subject to certain limitations imposed by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders.

The redemption of any shares of Series J Preferred Stock would be senior and prior to any redemption of any Junior Security. Any holder of shares of Series J Preferred Stock may elect to have less than all or none of such holder’s shares of Series J Preferred Stock redeemed. At any time after the Company has redeemed any shares of any Junior Security each holder of shares of Series J Preferred Stock may elect to have all or a portion of such holder’s shares of Series J Preferred Stock redeemed by the Company for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount of such shares of Series J Preferred Stock.

The “Liquidation Amount” of each share of Series J Preferred Stock is equal to the greater of (a) the fair market value of the Optional Conversion Shares and (b) an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the Stated Value by (B) 2.0.

Follow-On Series J Offering

Between January 3, 2014 and November 14, 2014, the Company issued an aggregate of 38,475 units of the Series J Securities, at a purchase price of $1,000 per Series J Security for aggregate proceeds of $38.5 million (the “Follow-On Series J Offering”). The Series J Securities were issued pursuant to separate Series J Securities Subscription Agreements between the Company and each of PCA Holdings, Holdings II, Riverwood Holdings, Cleantech Europe II (A) LP (“Cleantech A”) and Cleantech Europe II (B) LP (“Cleantech B” and together with Cleantech A, “Zouk”), Serengeti Lycaon MM L.P., (“Serengeti Lycaon”), Serengeti Opportunities MM L.P, (“Serengeti Opportunities, and together with Serengeti Lycaon, “Serengeti”) and certain other accredited investors. The Company issued 13,000; 6,000; 14,000; 2,860; 2,570 and 45 Series J Securities to Serengeti, Holdings II, PCA Holdings, Riverwood Holdings, Zouk and other accredited investors, respectively.

The Follow-On Series J Offering was deemed to be a “Qualified Follow-On,” as such term was used and defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of Series J Preferred Stock (the “Series J Certificate of Designation”) and the Preferred Stock Subscription Agreements (the “Existing Subscription Agreements”) by and between the Company and the Initial Series J Investors. As a result, and in accordance with the Existing Subscription Agreements, the Initial Series J Investors exchanged their Series J Preferred Stock for Series J Securities (the “Series J Exchange”). Accordingly, on January 3, 2014, each of LSGC Holdings II, PCA Holdings and Riverwood Holdings received Series J Warrants to purchase 36,191,050; 6,625,000 and 6,344,100 shares of Common Stock, respectively, in addition to the shares of Series J Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to the Existing Subscription Agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the Series J Certificate of Designation and the Existing Subscription Agreements, because Holdings II, PCA Holdings and Riverwood Holdings collectively held at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series J Preferred Stock and elected to participate in the Series J Exchange with respect to all of their previously purchased shares of Series J Preferred Stock, all of the Initial Series J Investors were required to participate in the Series J Exchange. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had issued an aggregate of 58,475 shares of Series J Preferred Stock and Series J Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 154,958,750 shares of Common Stock.

In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the shares of Series J Preferred Stock are recorded as mezzanine equity because such shares contain terms that allow the holder to redeem the shares for cash, and for which redemption is not solely within the control of the Company. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company will recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the shares of Series J Preferred Stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Series J Preferred Stock was recorded at redemption value on each date of issuance, which included a deemed dividend due to the redemption feature. As of December 31, 2014, Series J Preferred Stock redemption value included an aggregate deemed dividend of $86.8 million, which is reflected as an offset in additional paid-in capital.

Series J Warrants

Each Series J Warrant represents the right to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price $0.001 and, if unexercised, expires on the fifth anniversary of their issuance date. The Series J Warrants were considered derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” due to the Company not having adequate shares available for issuance on the date that such warrants were issued. The Series J Warrants were recorded as a liability of $12.5 million based on an allocated portion of the cash proceeds of the Follow-On Series J Offering at issuance. Changes in fair value were measured and recorded at the end of each quarter using the Black Scholes valuation method. The change in fair value of the Series J Warrants was an increase of $25.1 million for the period from the date of issuance of the Series J Warrants to April 14, 2014, which was included in the (increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Series J Warrants were not exercisable until the Company effected the Charter Amendment. The Charter Amendment was effective April 14, 2014, at which point the Series J Warrants were reclassified as equity instruments.

F-18

Pegasus Warrant

The Pegasus Warrant was issued to Holdings II on September 11, 2013 in consideration for advisory services provided by Pegasus. The Pegasus Warrant represents the right to purchase 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a variable exercise price that will be determined on the date of exercise. The exercise price will be equal to the difference obtained by subtracting (a) the fair market value for each share of Common Stock on the day immediately preceding the date of exercise from (b) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) approximately 2.764% of the amount by which the total equity value of the Company exceeds $580.0 million (as may be adjusted for subsequent capital raises) by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Pegasus Warrant; provided that for so long as the total equity value of the Company is less than or equal to $580.0 million (as may be adjusted for subsequent capital raises) the Pegasus Warrant will not be exercisable. The Pegasus Warrant provides for certain anti-dilution adjustments and if unexercised, expires on May 25, 2022.

The Pegasus Warrant is considered a derivative financial instrument in accordance with ASC 815-10-15, “Derivatives and Hedging” due to the variable nature of the warrant exercise price. The Pegasus Warrant was recorded as a liability at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. There was a change of $1.5 million and $935,000 in fair value of the Pegasus Warrant for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the period from September 11, 2013 (date of issuance) through December 31, 2013, respectively.

NOTE 11: SERIES H AND SERIES I REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

Series H and I Preferred Stock

On May 25, 2012, the Company entered into the Series H and I Subscription Agreement with Riverwood and certain other accredited investors. Pursuant to the Series H and I Subscription Agreement, the Company issued an aggregate of 60,705 shares of Series H Preferred Stock and 6,364 shares of Series I Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 (the “Stated Value”) per share of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock (together the “H/I Preferred Shares”). The Company raised gross proceeds of $67.1 million in the Series H and I Preferred Offering.

The H/I Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of the same type as any dividends or other distribution of any kind payable or to be made on outstanding shares of Common Stock, on an as converted basis. Each Preferred Share is convertible at any time, at the election of the holder thereof, into the number of shares of Common Stock (the “Optional Conversion Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Stated Value of such Preferred Share by (b) the $1.18 conversion price, subject to certain adjustments. The fair market value of the Common Stock was $1.50 per share on the date of the Series H and I Preferred Offering. Consequently, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $17.7 million and $16.9 million to the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively, and an offset of $34.6 million to additional paid-in capital, each as of May 25, 2012. The beneficial conversion feature was calculated as the product of (a) $0.32 (the difference between the conversion price of $1.18 and the fair market value of the Common Stock of $1.50) multiplied by (b) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such H/I Preferred Shares.

Upon the consummation of a qualified public offering (a “QPO”) where (i) the gross proceeds received by the Company and any selling stockholders in the offering are no less than $100 million and (ii) the market capitalization of the Company immediately after consummation of the offering is no less than $500 million, each outstanding Preferred Share will automatically convert into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) the number of Optional Conversion Shares or (b) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Returned Value (as defined below) by (ii) the price per share of Common Stock paid by the public in the QPO.

At any time on or after September 25, 2015, so long as the “Primary Investor” (as defined in the certificate of designation governing the Series H Preferred Stock (the “Series H Certificate of Designation”) and Series I Preferred Stock (the “Series I Certificate of Designation”), respectively) of the respective series of H/I Preferred Shares beneficially owns any shares of such series of H/I Preferred Shares, the respective Primary Investor will have the right to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such Primary Investor’s H/I Preferred Shares for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount (as defined below) of such H/I Preferred Shares (the “Optional Redemption Right”). If the Primary Investor of a series of the H/I Preferred Shares elects to exercise its Optional Redemption Right, all other holders of such series of H/I Preferred Shares will have a contingent redemption right to have all or any portion of their H/I Preferred Shares redeemed for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount of such H/I Preferred Shares.

F-19

After the “Primary Investor” of a series of H/I Preferred Shares no longer beneficially owns any shares of such series of H/I Preferred Shares, each holder of such series will have the right, at any time thereafter, to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such holder’s H/I Preferred Shares for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount of such H/I Preferred Shares. Each holder of H/I Preferred Shares may also require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such holder’s H/I Preferred Shares for an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Amount upon the occurrence of a Redemption Event or a Change of Control (each as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designation and Series I Certificate of Designation). The Company may not redeem, or be required to redeem, any H/I Preferred Shares for so long as such redemption would result in an event of default under the FCC ABL or the Medley Term Loan or any substitution or replacement of such facilities.

The “Liquidation Amount” of each Preferred Share is equal to the greater of (a) the fair market value of the Optional Conversion Shares and (b) an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the Stated Value by (B) 2.0 (collectively, the “Returned Value”).

On September 11, 2013, in connection with the Series J Preferred Offering, Riverwood and Pegasus, as the “Primary Investors” of the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively, approved the Amended and Restated Series H Certificate of Designation and the Amended and Restated Series I Certificate of Designation (collectively, the “Amended Certificates of Designation”) and certain holders of shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock agreed to make certain amendments to the agreements entered into in connection with the purchase of (i) the shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock and (ii) the Company’s previously issued shares of Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock, which were subsequently converted into shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Preferred Stock Subscription Agreements”).

The Amended Certificates of Designation amend the terms of the Series H Certificate of Designation and Series I Certificate of Designation to, among other things, (i) reduce the price used to determine the number of shares of Common Stock each share of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock can be converted into at the election of each holder from $1.18 to $0.95 (the “Conversion Price”); (ii) remove the covenant requiring the Company to comply with certain minimum thresholds related to the Company’s consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for 2013 and 2014; (iii) increase, from $10 million to $50 million, the amount of indebtedness the Company can incur without the consent of Riverwood and Pegasus (in each case, in their capacity as “Primary Investor” of the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively) and (iv) make certain other clarifying amendments to the Certificates of Designation. The reduction in the Conversion Price for the Series H Preferred Stock and the Series I Preferred Stock resulted in the Company recording a deemed dividend of $14.4 million, which is reflected in earnings per share allocated to controlling shareholders and noncontrolling shareholders.

In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the H/I Preferred Shares are recorded as mezzanine equity because the H/I Preferred Shares contain terms that allow the holder to redeem the shares for cash, and for which redemption is not solely within the control of the Company. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company will recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the H/I Preferred Shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The H/I Preferred Shares were recorded at redemption value as of May 25, 2012, which included a deemed dividend due to the redemption feature and resulted in the Company recording an increase of $66.2 million and $47.7 million to the Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, respectively, and an offset of $113.9 million to additional paid-in capital. There was no change in the redemption value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

September 2012 Preferred Offering

On September 25, 2012, the Company entered into the September 2012 Subscription Agreements with each of (i) Portman and (ii) Cleantech A and Cleantech B, pursuant to which the Company issued 49,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the “September 2012 Preferred Shares”) for gross proceeds of $49.0 million. In the September 2012 Preferred Offering the Company issued (i) 24,500 shares of Series H Preferred Stock to Portman, and (ii) 20,862 and 3,638 shares of Series H Preferred Stock to Cleantech A and Cleantech B, respectively.

The September 2012 Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of the same type as any dividends or other distribution of any kind payable or to be made on outstanding shares of Common Stock, on an as converted basis. Each September 2012 Preferred Share is convertible at any time, at the election of the holder thereof, into the Optional Conversion Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Stated Value of such September 2012 Preferred Share by (b) the $1.18 conversion price, subject to certain adjustments. The fair market value of Common Stock was $0.86 per share on the date of the September 2012 Preferred Offering. Consequently, since the conversion price was greater than the fair market value of the Common Stock there was no deemed dividend due to the beneficial conversion feature on the date of issuance.

F-20

In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the September 2012 Preferred Shares are recorded as mezzanine equity because the September 2012 Preferred Shares have certain conditions that allow the holder to redeem the shares for cash, and for which redemption is not solely within the control of the Company. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company will recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the September 2012 Preferred Shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The September 2012 Preferred Shares were recorded at redemption value as of September 25, 2012, which included a deemed dividend due to the redemption feature and resulted in the Company recording an increase of $53.6 million to the Series H Preferred Stock with an offset to additional paid-in capital. There was no change in the redemption value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company initiated the September 2012 Preferred Offering pursuant to the preemptive rights granted to the holders of H/I Preferred Shares (collectively, the “Holders”) in the Series H Certificate of Designation and the Series I Certificate of Designation. On September 25, 2012, the Company offered each Holder the right to purchase its Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designation and the Series I Certificate of Designation) of 51,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock (the “Offered Shares”) at a purchase price of $1,000 per share. In addition, any Holder, or such Holder’s permitted assignee, that elected to purchase at least 95% of its Pro Rata Share of the Offered Shares would be entitled to receive a Warrant (the “September 2012 Warrants”) to purchase up to 163.2653 shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) of the Company’s Common Stock with respect to each Offered Share purchased by such Holder or permitted assignee. As further discussed below, an affiliate of Pegasus Capital has agreed to sell shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares, if any, issued upon exercise of any September 2012 Warrants, which shares would be sold on the same terms and at the same exercise price as the September 2012 Warrants and having the effect of reducing the dilutive effects of the September 2012 Warrants. Holders owning the right to purchase an aggregate of 49,102 Offered Shares and 8,016,653 September 2012 Warrants assigned their rights to participate in the September 2012 Preferred Offering to Portman and Zouk. In addition, due to the exercise by Portman and Zouk of at least 95% of the Pro Rata Share of Offered Shares assigned to them, each of Portman, Cleantech A and Cleantech B received September 2012 Warrants to purchase 4,000,000, 3,406,041 and 593,959 shares of Common Stock, respectively.

In connection with the issuance of the September 2012 Warrants, on September 25, 2012, the Company entered into a Commitment Agreement (the “September 2012 Commitment Agreement”) with Pegasus IV, pursuant to which the Company is obligated to buy from Pegasus IV or its affiliates shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares, if any, for which the September 2012 Warrants are exercised, up to an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock underlying all of the September 2012 Warrants (the “Pegasus Commitment”). The purchase price for any Pegasus Commitment will be equal to the consideration paid to the Company pursuant to the September 2012 Warrants. With respect to any September 2012 Warrants exercised on a cashless basis, the consideration to Pegasus IV in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock issued to the exercising holder of September 2012 Warrants would be the reduction in the Pegasus Commitment equal to the reduction in the number of shares underlying the September 2012 Warrants.

Subject to certain limitations, Pegasus IV has the right to cancel its obligations to the Company pursuant to the September 2012 Commitment Agreement with respect to all or a portion of the Pegasus Commitment then outstanding (a “Pegasus Call”). Upon the exercise of a Pegasus Call, the Company will have the obligation to purchase that number of September 2012 Warrants equal to the Pegasus Commitment subject to the Pegasus Call for an amount equal to the consideration paid by Pegasus IV pursuant to such Pegasus Call.

In addition to the rights provided in the Series H Certificate of Designation, the September 2012 Subscription Agreements provide Portman and Zouk, collectively, with the right, within ten (10) business days following September 25, 2015, to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Offered Shares for an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Stated Value, (ii) the number of Offered Shares to be redeemed and (iii) 1.5. In connection with the September 2012 Preferred Offering, the Company committed to submit to the stockholders of the Company an amendment and restatement to the Series H Certificate of Designation and Series I Certificate of Designation, which would, among other things, protect Zouk’s right to elect one director to the Company’s board of directors and amend the date on which the Primary Investors (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designation and Series I Certificate of Designation, as applicable) could require the Company to redeem the shares of Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock from November 25, 2015 to September 25, 2015.

Settlement of Repurchase Obligation

Pursuant to that certain letter agreement, dated January 17, 2012 from the Company to LSGC Holdings (the “LSGC Letter Agreement”), the Company agreed to indemnify LSGC Holdings for, among other things, the cost of redeeming the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests (the “Repurchase Obligation”) in the event that the Company issued preferred equity securities in excess of $80.0 million. Additionally, under the terms of the LSGC Letter Agreement, in the event that the Company would be required to indemnify LSGC Holdings under the LSGC Letter Agreement, LSGC Holdings agreed to surrender 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock to the Company less any shares of Common Stock previously distributed by LSGC Holdings to Continental. Following the consummation of the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the amount of preferred equity issued by the Company exceeded $80.0 million, and, as a result, LSGC Holdings, a related party, was required to redeem 15,000,000 of its issued and outstanding senior preferred member interests held by Continental (the “LSGC Holdings Class C Interests”). See Note 12 for a discussion of the Repurchase Obligation.

On May 25, 2012, in conjunction with the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company, LSGC Holdings and Continental entered into that certain Exchange and Redemption Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) to, among other things, facilitate LSGC Holdings’ redemption of the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests held by Continental, the Company’s indemnification payment to LSGC Holdings and LSGC Holdings’ surrender of shares of Common Stock to the Company in accordance with the LSGC Letter Agreement. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company made a $16.2 million indemnification payment directly to Continental, which amount represented the cost to redeem the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests. The payment consisted of: (i) a cash payment of $10.2 million, and (ii) in lieu of an additional $6.0 million in cash, 6,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock at the Stated Value. Continental also surrendered the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests to LSGC Holdings and LSGC Holdings surrendered a total of 2,505,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair value of $3.8 million to the Company.

Riverwood Warrant

The Riverwood Warrant was issued to Riverwood Management on May 25, 2012 in consideration for services provided in connection with the Series H and I Preferred Offering. The Riverwood Warrant represents the right to purchase 18,092,511 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price to be determined on the date of exercise. The exercise price will be equal to the difference obtained by subtracting (a) the fair market value for each share of Common Stock on the day immediately preceding the date of exercise from (b) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 5% of the amount by which the total equity value of the Company exceeds $500 million by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Riverwood Warrant. The Riverwood Warrant provides for certain antidilution adjustments and if unexercised, expires on May 25, 2022.

The Riverwood Warrant is considered a derivative financial instrument in accordance with ASC 815-10-15, “Derivatives and Hedging” due to the variable nature of the warrant exercise price. The Riverwood Warrant was recorded as a liability at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. The change in fair value of the Riverwood Warrant was $2.7 million, $3.0 million and $8.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and was included in the increase (decrease) in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Pegasus Commitment is classified as a financial instrument under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” due to the Company’s obligation to purchase its own shares in the event the September 2012 Warrants are exercised by the holders. The Pegasus Commitment was recorded as an asset at fair value using the Monte Carlo valuation method at issuance with changes in fair value measured and recorded at the end of each quarter. The change in fair value of the Pegasus Commitment for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and the period from September 25, 2012 (date of issuance) through December 31, 2012 was $687,000, $47,000 and $240,000, respectively, and was included in additional paid-in capital. The change in fair value of the Pegasus Commitment generally offsets the change in fair value of the September 2012 Warrants for the same period.

NOTE 12: SERIES G PREFERRED UNITS AND REPURCHASE OBLICATION

Series G Preferred Units

From December 2011 through May 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 52,358 shares of its Series G Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock”), at a price of $1,000 per share for aggregate proceeds of $52.4 million (the “Series G Preferred Offering”). The shares of Series G Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to a preferred stock subscription agreement among the Company, PCA Holdings, Pegasus IV, Holdings II, Leon Wagner, a member of the Company’s board of directors and certain accredited investors (together with Pegasus IV, PCA Holdings, Holdings II and any additional investors that may become party to the Series G Subscription Agreement, the “Series G Purchasers”). Each Series G Preferred Unit consists of: (i) one share of the Series G Preferred Stock and (ii) 83 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Holdings II purchased an aggregate of 14,958 Series G Preferred Units; PCA Holdings purchased an aggregate of 17,650 Series G Preferred Units; Leon Wagner purchased an aggregate of 6,500 Series G Preferred Units; and the additional accredited investors purchased an aggregate of 13,250 Series G Preferred Units.

In accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, the Series G Preferred Stock was recorded initially at fair value as a liability as the Series G Preferred Stock may require settlement in a variable number of shares of Common Stock. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Series G Preferred Stock was recorded at the present value of the amount to be paid at settlement, accruing interest cost using the rate implicit at inception. The Common Stock was recorded to equity at fair value and is not subsequently revalued. The difference between the amount recorded at issuance and the original issuance price was being accreted using the effective interest method over the term of the Series G Preferred Stock. Accretion of Series G Preferred Stock was $7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. In conjunction with the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company recognized $6.3 million as a loss on the conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock, which is included in the accretion of preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Pursuant to the Series G Subscription Agreement, if, at any time while shares of Series G Preferred Stock remained outstanding, the Company issued securities (other than pursuant to the Company’s equity-based compensation plans) that resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50.0 million (a “Series G Subsequent Transaction”), the Company was required to notify all holders of Series G Preferred Stock of the terms and conditions of such Series G Subsequent Transaction. Upon the consummation of the Series H and I Preferred Offering, the Company completed the required notification and, as described above, and pursuant to the Rollover Offering, all holders of Series G Preferred Stock converted their shares of Series G Preferred Stock into a number of shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock (at the holder’s election) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation value of the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock held by each holder by the Stated Value. Each holder retained all of the shares of Common Stock issued as part of the Series G Preferred Units. Upon this conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock, each share of Series G Preferred Stock was valued at its accrued value, which included the initial fair value plus any dividends accrued through the date of conversion.

F-23

Series G Preferred Stock Annual Cumulative Dividend

Each share of Series G Preferred Stock was entitled to an annual cumulative dividend of, (i) initially, 10.0%, (ii) commencing on November 17, 2012, 15.0% and (iii) commencing on February 21, 2014, 18.0%, on the accrued value of such share. The dividend accrues daily and compounds on (i) November 17, 2012 and, (ii) from and after November 17, 2012, December 31 and June 30 of each year.

The dividend was scheduled to accrue over the term of the Series G Preferred Stock on a weighted average rate based upon the applicable dividend rate over the term. On each dividend payment date subsequent to November 17, 2012, such dividend was required to be paid to each holder in cash semi-annually in arrears. The Company was only required to pay such dividend in cash to the extent that such payment would not result in an event of default under the Company’s (i) Wells Fargo ABL or (ii) Ares Capital Loan. Any dividend that was scheduled to accrue on or after November 17, 2012, and was required to be paid in cash but was not actually paid in cash, was to continue to accrue and compound and be added to the accrued value of the Series G Preferred Stock.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded $1.8 million of dividends expense on the Series G Preferred Stock.

Repurchase Obligation

In May 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with LSGC Holdings pursuant to which LSGC Holdings agreed to purchase 3,750,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a purchase price of $4.00 per share (the “Holdings Placement”). This purchase was completed on May 26, 2011 and generated net proceeds, after deducting placement agent commissions of $14.4 million. To facilitate the Holdings Placement, in May 2011, LSGC Holdings issued 15,000,000 LSGC Holdings Class C Interests and distributed 562,500 shares of Common Stock of the Company to Continental for $15.0 million.

On January 17, 2012, in connection with Continental’s purchase of 5,000 Series G Preferred Units from the Company for $5.0 million, LSGC Holdings agreed to certain amendments to the terms of the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests held by Continental, including to increase the interest rate on the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests and to distribute 682,500 additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to Continental (the “Class C Amendments”). In addition, pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the Holdings Placement, LSGC Holdings was obligated to redeem the LSGC Holdings Class C Interests if the Company (i) incurred aggregate indebtedness that exceeded (a) the indebtedness permitted under the Wells Fargo ABL, not to exceed $75.0 million in total credit thereunder and (b) such additional unsecured indebtedness that when aggregated with such working capital facility, if any, exceeded 300% of its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the preceding 12 months or (ii) issued outstanding preferred equity securities having an original principal amount of more than $80.0 million in the aggregate.

On January 17, 2012, in connection with the Class C Amendments, the Company entered into the LSGC Letter Agreement with LSGC Holdings pursuant to which it agreed to the Repurchase Obligation arising out of or relating to the Company’s incurrence of indebtedness in excess of the applicable cap or issuance of preferred equity securities in excess of the applicable cap in the Class C Amendments. In exchange, LSGC Holdings agreed to return to the Company 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock less any shares of Common Stock that had been previously distributed to Continental (or 2,505,000 shares Common Stock) in the event the Company was required to settle the Repurchase Obligation. Pursuant to the LSGC Letter Agreement, the Company also agreed to pay Pegasus IV a fee of $250,000 for expenses incurred by Pegasus IV and its affiliates related to these transactions. This fee was recognized as interest expense over the life of the Series G Preferred Units. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized related party interest expense of $250,000.

The Repurchase Obligation was determined to be a financial instrument that may require the repurchase of Common Stock based on the contingent events described above. The Repurchase Obligation was recorded initially at fair value as a liability with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Subsequent changes in fair value of the Repurchase Obligation were also measured and recorded at the end of each period in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The terms of the Repurchase Obligation required the Company to repurchase its Common Stock held by LSGC Holdings, an entity that is controlled by Pegasus Capital, for an amount that exceeded the fair value of the underlying Common Stock. The fair value of the Repurchase Obligation was considered a deemed dividend to the Company’s controlling stockholder. The deemed dividend was applicable only to the shares held by Pegasus Capital and its affiliates. The terms of the LSGC Letter Agreement and the related Repurchase Obligation resulted in the establishment of two classes of Common Stock, for financial reporting purposes only, with Common Stock attributable to controlling stockholders representing all Common Stock beneficially owned by Pegasus Capital and its affiliates and Common Stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders representing the minority interest stockholders.

As of May 25, 2012, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company made the required indemnification payments and completed the repurchase of its Common Stock, fulfilling the Repurchase Obligation. On May 25, 2012, the fair value of the Repurchase Obligation was $12.5 million and was recorded as a deemed dividend with a corresponding offset to additional paid in capital. Prior to fulfillment of the Repurchase Obligation, the fair value of the Repurchase Obligation was based on the probability of required settlement of the contractual terms of the LSGC Holdings Class C Interest of LSGC Holdings less the fair value of the Common Stock of the Company that it would receive upon settlement. As of May 25, 2012, the fair value of the Repurchase Obligation was based on the actual settlement terms, less the fair value of the Common Stock received.

As of December 31, 2014, the warrants issued in connection with the Company’s previously redeemed Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the warrants held by Aquillian Investments LLC, the Series J Warrants, the Medley Warrants and the Pegasus Guaranty Warrants and a portion of the THD Warrants were fully vested and exercisable. The September 2012 Warrants will become exercisable on October 9, 2015. Per the vesting terms discussed above, no shares issuable pursuant to the THD Warrant vested for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 1,669,392 shares issuable pursuant to the THD Warrant vested during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2012 and 2011, for total warrants vested of 5,008,176, when the product purchases for these periods satisfied the prescribed vesting conditions, and 1,669,392 shares remain subject to vesting in accordance with similar product purchasing terms. As of December 31, 2014, the tranche of 1,669,392 warrants, which vested in 2011, expired. Pursuant to the terms of the Riverwood Warrants and the Pegasus Warrant, these were not exercisable as of December 31, 2014 because the aggregate fair market value of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined in accordance with the terms of the Riverwood Warrants and the Pegasus Warrant) was less than $580.0 million (subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Riverwood Warrants and the Pegasus Warrant).

The fair value of the THD Warrant is determined using the Monte Carlo valuation method and will be adjusted at each reporting date until they have been earned for each year and these adjustments will be recorded as a reduction in the related revenue (sales incentive) from The Home Depot. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded $103,000, $0 and $458,000 as a reduction in revenue, respectively. The change in fair value of the previously vested portion of the THD Warrant was an increase of $72,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, and was included in the (increase) decrease in fair value of liabilities under derivative contracts in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

NOTE 14: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Upon issuance of the LSGC Letter Agreement on January 17, 2012, the Company determined that two classes of Common Stock had been established for financial reporting purposes only, with Common Stock attributable to controlling stockholders representing shares beneficially owned and controlled by Pegasus Capital and its affiliates and the Common Stock attributable to noncontrolling stockholders representing the minority interest stockholders. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company computed net loss per share of noncontrolling stockholders and controlling stockholders Common Stock using the two-class method. Net loss from operations is initially allocated based on the underlying common shares held by controlling and noncontrolling stockholders. The allocation of the net losses attributable to the Common Stock attributable to controlling stockholders is then reduced by the amount of the deemed dividends.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Common Stock:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2014						2013						2012
	Controlling Stockholders			Noncontrolling Stockholders			Controlling Stockholders			Noncontrolling Stockholders			Controlling Stockholders			Noncontrolling Stockholders
Basic and diluted net income per share:
Net loss from operations	$	(52,134,928	)	$	(13,459,745	)	$	(74,506,560	)	$	(15,310,772	)	$	(93,066,715	)	$	(18,273,694	)
Deemed dividends due to the issuance of Pegasus Guaranty Warrants as compensation for guaranty provided by controlling shareholders		570,574			(570,574	)		-			-			-			-
Deemed dividends related to the Series H, I and J Preferred Stock attributable to all shareholders		(49,687,773	)		(12,827,960	)		(20,206,288	)		(4,152,304	)		(170,193,331	)		(33,417,541	)

Basic and diluted net loss per common share:	$	(0.44	)	$	(0.45	)	$	(0.55	)	$	(0.55	)	$	(1.47	)	$	(1.92	)

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The Series J Warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per share of Common Stock, and are included in the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as there are no conditions that must be satisfied before such warrant may be exercised into the shares of Common Stock underlying such warrants. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share except the number of shares is increased to assume exercise of potentially dilutive stock options, unvested restricted stock and contingently issuable shares using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred shares using the if-converted method, unless the effect of such increases would be anti-dilutive. The Company had 180.5 million, 88.1 million and 77.7 million common stock equivalents for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which were not included in the diluted net loss per common share as the common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive, as a result of being in a net loss position.

NOTE 16: EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company currently has one equity-based compensation plan, the 2012 Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan, (the “Equity Plan”). Awards granted under the Equity Plan may include incentive stock options, which are qualified under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), stock options other than incentive stock options, which are not qualified under Section 422 of the Code, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, phantom stock, bonus stock and awards in lieu of obligations, dividend equivalents and other stock-based awards. On September 9, 2014, holders of a majority of the Company’s Common Stock executed a written consent in lieu of a special meeting approving an amendment to the Equity Plan that (i) increased the total number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance thereunder from 55,000,000 to 155,000,000 and (ii) increased the maximum number of stock options or stock appreciation rights that may be granted each fiscal year to any Covered Employee (as defined in the Equity Plan) from 7,000,000 to 30,000,000. As of December 31, 2014, there were 105.3 million shares remaining for future grants. Awards may be granted to employees, members of the Board of Directors, and consultants. The Equity Plan is generally administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Vesting periods and terms for awards are determined by the plan administrator. The exercise price of each stock option or stock appreciation right is equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and no stock option or stock appreciation right granted may have a term in excess of ten years.

The Board of Directors may also issue stock-based awards to the Company’s nonemployee directors who wish their awards to be issued to an entity other than an individual under the Directors Stock Plan (the “Directors Plan”). As of December 31, 2014, the Company has reserved an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Directors Plan.

As of December 31, 2014, there was $51,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock granted under the Equity Plan and the Directors Plan, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.45 years. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded compensation expense related to RSAs of $730,000, $891,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.

Stock–Based Compensation Valuation and Expense

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan using the fair value method. The fair value method requires the Company to estimate the grant date fair value of its stock based awards and amortize this fair value to compensation expense over the requisite service period or vesting term. To estimate the fair value of the Company’s stock-based awards the Company currently uses the Black-Scholes pricing model. The determination of the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, the risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. Due to the inherent limitations of option-valuation models available today, including future events that are unpredictable and the estimation process utilized in determining the valuation of the stock-based awards, the ultimate value realized by award holders may vary significantly from the amounts expensed in the Company’s financial statements. For restricted stock awards, grant date fair value is based upon the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. This fair value is then amortized to compensation expense over the requisite service period or vesting term.

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded net of estimated forfeitures such that expense is recorded only for those stock-based awards that are expected to vest. A forfeiture rate is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates.

The Company recorded stock option expense of $3.3 million, $6.9 million and $7.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The weighted average assumptions used to value stock option grants were as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
Variable Ranges	2014				2013				2012
Exercise price	$	0.18	-	$0.50	$	0.44	-	$0.70	$	0.74	-	$1.59
Fair market value of the underlying stock on date of grant	$	0.18	-	$0.42	$	0.38	-	$0.64	$	0.74	-	$1.59
Stock Option Grants:
Risk-free interest rate		0.209%	-	2.07%		1.03%	-	2.00%		0.60%	-	1.24%
Expected life, in years		1.75	-	6.25		6.00	-	6.25		2.00	-	6.25
Expected volatility		67.32%	-	100.46%		99.51%	-	101.82%		97.25%	-	103.17%
Expected dividend yield			0.0%				0.0%				0.0%
Expected forfeiture rate			19.19%				7.49%				8.78%
Fair value per share	$	0.12	-	$0.28	$	0.08	-	$0.52	$	0.59	-	$1.24

The following describes each of these assumptions and the Company’s methodology for determining each assumption:

F-30

Risk-Free Interest Rate

The Company estimates the risk-free interest rate using the U.S. Treasury bill rate with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the award.

Expected Life

The expected life represents the period that the stock option awards are expected to be outstanding derived using the “simplified” method as allowed under the provisions of the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 as the Company does not believe it has sufficient historical data to support a more detailed assessment of the estimate.

Expected Volatility

The Company estimates expected volatility based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock and its peers.

Expected Dividend Yield

The Company estimates the expected dividend yield by giving consideration to its current dividend policies as well as those anticipated in the future considering the Company’s current plans and projections.

2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company also has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2011 ESPP”) that provides employees with the opportunity to purchase Common Stock at a discount. All employees of the Company and any designated subsidiary are eligible to participate in the 2011 ESPP, subject to certain exceptions. As of December 31, 2014, there were 2.0 million shares authorized for issuance under the ESPP, with 1.8 million shares remaining for future issuance. The 2011 ESPP is a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Code and was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting on August 10, 2011.

The purpose of the 2011 ESPP is to provide employees of the Company and designated subsidiaries with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. Accordingly, the 2011 ESPP offers eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company at a discount to the market value through voluntary systematic payroll deductions. For the 2014 offering under the 2011 ESPP, a participant may elect to use up to 30% of his or her compensation to purchase whole shares of Common Stock of the Company, but may not purchase more than 2,000 shares per year. The purchase price for each purchase period will be 85% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock of the Company on the purchase date, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Unless sooner terminated by the board of directors, the 2011 ESPP will remain in effect until December 31, 2020. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company issued 23,126, 88,284 shares and 89,707 shares of its Common Stock to certain employees under the 2011 ESPP at prices ranging from $0.13 to $2.36 per share.

NOTE 17: RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES

The following table summarizes our restructuring expenses and related charges for the following years ended December 31:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2014		2013		2012

Broad based reduction of facilities and personnel ⁽¹⁾	$	3,353,558	$	4,479,076	$	-
Mexico Closing ⁽²⁾		-		102,688		3,908,562
Organization Optimization Initiative⁽³⁾		114,277		75,733		2,304,374

Total	$	3,467,835	$	4,657,497	$	6,212,936

(1)

These charges relate to a significant cost reduction plan initiated during the fourth quarter of 2013 that includes moving the majority of the Company’s manufacturing to its contract manufacturers in Asia, related workforce reduction in Satellite Beach, Florida of approximately 69 positions, including the termination of several members of the Company’s senior management and a $3.2 million write-down of property and equipment, cost reductions in our foreign subsidiaries and refocusing the Company’s efforts within North America, which resulted in the elimination of all employees at LSGBV and LSIPL. In addition to the charges noted above, the Company expects to incur approximately $100,000 additional expense throughout this cost reduction plan, primarily related to additional headcount reductions. These additional costs are expected to be incurred in the first half of 2015.

(2)

On September 24, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors committed to the closing of our manufacturing facility in Mexico, which was substantially complete as of December 31, 2013. The Mexico Closing resulted in the termination of approximately 520 employees and $1.7 million in a non-cash asset impairment.

In September 2011, the Company began implementing a restructuring plan designed to further increase efficiencies across the organization and lower the overall cost structure. This restructuring plan included a reduction in full time headcount in the United States, which was completed in October 2011. In 2012, the Company extended the restructuring plan to further increase efficiencies across the organization and lower its overall cost structure. The plan included a significant reduction in full time headcount in Mexico resulting from the Company’s continued shift of its manufacturing and production processes to the Company’s contract manufacturer in Mexico, the replacement of ten members of management in the United States, following the completion of the Series H and I Preferred Offering in May 2012 and the closing of the Companies offices in the United Kingdom and Australia. As of December 31, 2014, this plan was complete.

The restructuring and other related charges are included in the line item restructuring expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

NOTE 18: INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

The components of the consolidated income tax provision (benefit) from continuing operations are as follows:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred income taxes are as follows:

	As of December 31,
	2014			2013

ASC 740 requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. After consideration of all evidence, both positive and negative, management has determined that a $198.7 million valuation allowance as of December 31, 2014 is necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The change in the valuation allowance for the current year is $30.5 million.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had tax loss carryforwards available to offset future income taxes, subject to expiration as follows:

At the time of the reverse merger transaction and resulting change in control, in June 2007, the Company had accumulated approximately $75.0 million in loss carryforwards. As a result of the change in control, the Company is limited by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code in the amount of loss carryforwards that it may apply to its taxable income in any tax year. These loss carryforwards expire from 2016 through 2034. To the extent the Company is able to utilize available loss carryforwards that arose from operations in tax years prior to September 26, 2003, any benefit realized will be credited to income tax expense.

The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in its income tax provision. The Company has not accrued or paid interest or penalties which were material to its results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

The Company files income tax returns in its U.S. federal jurisdictions and various state jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2014, the Company’s income tax returns prior to 2011 and 2010 are closed to examination for federal and state purposes, respectively. The Company’s 2013 federal income tax return is currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, income tax returns filed in the Netherlands for the 2012 tax yeas has received a final assessment from the taxing authorities. The Company does not anticipate any material change in the next 12 months for uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 19: CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had one customer whose revenue represented 80% and 55% of total revenue, respectively. The loss of this material relationship would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company had two customers whose revenue collectively represented 70% of total revenue.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had one customer whose accounts receivable balance represented 66% and 55% of accounts receivables, net of allowances, respectively.

NOTE 20: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Commitments

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $20.2 million in purchase commitments, which are generally non-cancellable.

Lease Commitments

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had the following commitments under operating leases for property and equipment for each of the next five years:

Year	Amount
2015	$	371,827
2016		361,064
2017		339,673
2018		269,673
2019		269,673
Thereafter		-
	$	1,611,911

During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred rent expense of $1.7 million, $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively.

Agreements with Contract Manufacturers

The Company currently depends on a small number of contract manufacturers to manufacture its products. If any of these contract manufacturers were to terminate their agreements with the Company or fail to provide the required capacity and quality on a timely basis, the Company may be unable to manufacture and ship products until replacement contract manufacturing services could be obtained.

Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to the possibility of loss contingencies arising in its business and such contingencies are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 450, "Contingencies.” In determining loss contingencies, the Company considers the possibility of a loss as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recorded when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and when the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is routinely a defendant in or party to various pending and threatened legal claims and proceedings. The Company believes that any liability resulting from these various claims will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition; however, it is possible that extraordinary or unexpected legal fees could adversely impact our financial results during a particular period. During its ordinary course of business, the Company enters into obligations to defend, indemnify and/or hold harmless various customers, officers, directors, employees, and other third parties. These contractual obligations could give rise to additional litigation costs and involvement in court proceedings.

On June 22, 2012, Geveran Investments Limited (“Geveran”), one of the Company’s stockholders, filed a lawsuit against the Company and several others in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. On October 30, 2012, the court entered an order transferring the lawsuit to the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida. The action, styled Geveran Investments Limited v. Lighting Science Group Corp., et al., Case No. 12-17738 (07), names the Company as a defendant, as well as Pegasus Capital and nine other entities affiliated with Pegasus Capital; Richard Weinberg, our former Director and former interim Chief Executive Officer and a former partner of Pegasus Capital; Gregory Kaiser, a former Chief Financial Officer; J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC (“J.P. Morgan”); and two employees of J.P. Morgan. Geveran seeks rescission of its $25.0 million investment in the Company, as well as recovery of interest, attorneys’ fees and court costs, jointly and severally against the Company, Pegasus Capital, Mr. Weinberg, Mr. Kaiser, J.P. Morgan and the two J.P. Morgan employees, for alleged violations of Florida securities laws. Geveran alternatively seeks unspecified money damages, as well as recovery of court costs, for alleged common law negligent misrepresentation against these same defendants.

In August 2014, the court granted Geveran’s motion to amend their first amended complaint to assert a claim for punitive damages against the defendants. On August 28, 2014, the court issued an Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment under its First Cause of Action for Violation of the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act (the “August 28 Order”). As of March 30, 2015, the August 28 Order has not been entered. Once such Order is entered, the Company intends to appeal it. Together with the other defendants, the Company will have 30 days to post a bond during which time enforcement of the judgment would be stayed. The Company plans to have a bond posted to secure the judgment, which should result in the automatic stay of enforcement through the appeal process.

F-35

While the court granted partial summary judgment in favor Geveran and the outcome of any litigation is inherently difficult to predict, the Company currently believes that it has strong defenses against Geveran’s claims. The Company has retained counsel, denies liability in connection with this matter and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against the claims asserted by Geveran. Nonetheless, the amount of possible loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position. The Company believes that, subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant policies (including retention and policy limits), directors and officers’ insurance coverage will be available to cover the substantial majority of its legal fees and costs in this matter. However, given the unspecified nature of Geveran’s maximum damage claims, insurance coverage may not be available for, or such coverage may not be sufficient to fully pay, a judgment or settlement in favor of Geveran. Based upon the terms of an indemnification agreement described below, the Company has also paid, and is likely to pay in the in the future, reasonable legal expenses incurred by J.P. Morgan and its affiliates in this lawsuit in connection with the engagement of J.P. Morgan as placement agent for the private placement with Geveran. Such payments are not covered by the Company’s insurance coverage. The engagement letter executed with J.P. Morgan provides that the Company will indemnify J.P. Morgan and its affiliates from liabilities relating to J.P. Morgan’s activities as placement agent, unless such activities are finally judicially determined to have resulted from J.P. Morgan’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

The Company is also a defendant in action brought by GE Lighting Solutions LLC in Federal District Court for the Northern District of Ohio in or about January 2013. GE Lighting asserts a claim of patent infringement against the Company under U.S Patent No. 6,787,999, entitled LED-Based Modular Lamp, and U.S. Patent No. 6,799,864, entitled High Power LED Power Pack for Spot Module Illumination, and seeks monetary damages and an injunction. The Company believes that it has strong defenses against plaintiff’s claims. The Company has retained counsel, denies liability in connection with this matter and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against the claims asserted by GE Lighting. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in defending against this action. The outcome, if unfavorable, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position. Even if the outcome is favorable, this litigation could result in substantial costs to the Company, could be a distraction to management and could harm the Company’s financial position.

In addition, the Company may be a party to a variety of legal actions, such as employment and employment discrimination-related suits, employee benefit claims, breach of contract actions, tort claims, shareholder suits, including securities fraud, intellectual property related litigation, and a variety of legal actions relating to its business operations. In some cases, substantial punitive damages may be sought. The Company currently has insurance coverage for certain of these potential liabilities. Other potential liabilities may not be covered by insurance, insurers may dispute coverage or the amount of insurance may not be sufficient to cover the damages awarded. In addition, certain types of damages, such as punitive damages, may not be covered by insurance and insurance coverage for all or certain forms of liability may become unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the future.

NOTE 21: DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

The Company has a qualified 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering substantially all employees in the United States. The 401(k) Plan was established under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k). As of January 1, 2011, the Company began matching 50% of the first 6% of employee contributions and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company contributed $220,000, $303,000 and $332,000, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.
