3. Preferred Shares and Preferred Shares Conversion Liability
On June 13, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution designating 10,016,080 shares of Preferred Stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with an initial stated value of $1.40 and par value of $0.01. Each Series B preferred share is convertible into 10 shares of common stock and is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock. These Series B shares may be converted to common stock by the holder of the shares at any time. The Series B shares shall be automatically converted into common shares upon the closing of an underwritten initial public offering with aggregate proceeds to the Company of at least $7 million and a price per share to the public of at least the Series B stated value upon the closing of which the shares of common stock of the Company shall be listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The Series B shares are also convertible into common shares upon the election of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding Series B shares. Until conversion, the holders of Series B Preferred shares shall be entitled to receive dividends of 10% of the Series B stated value per annum.
On June 26, 2013, the Company issued 4,999,999 shares of the Company’s newly-created Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 12,499,996 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $6,999,998. As part of the same transaction, the Company converted $5,491,001 in outstanding convertible loan notes into 4,357,936 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 10,894,839 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 per share. On July 15, 2013, the remaining outstanding convertible loan notes, totaling $829,277, were converted into 658,145 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 1,645,361 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 per share. As a result of this financing, all outstanding convertible notes were converted into shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase common stock.
In connection with the private placement of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company recorded a liability for the conversion feature that contains a provision that protect holders from a decline in the issue price of the Company’s common stock (“down-round” provision). The Company estimates the fair values of the conversion feature using a Black Scholes valuation model. The Company measured the fair value of the conversion feature on June 26, 2013 and July 15, 2013 and recorded the initial liability as part of the private placement proceeds.
The Company re-measured the fair value of the conversion feature and recorded $5,297,000 in total charges to record the liabilities associated with the conversion feature at their estimated fair value totaling $38,807,000 as of March 31, 2014.
