17.          ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

 

On March 25, 2010, the Company issued warrants (the “Warrants”) for 160,000 common shares to an investor relation service provider that have an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a contractual life of 3 years.  The terms of the Warrant agreement include the following factors that in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, requires that the Warrants be classified at their fair value to liabilities in each reporting period.

 

· The holder of the Warrants (the “Holder”) is entitled to the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration.  Noncompliance with such rules and regulations could result in the Company having to settle the Warrant obligation in cash.

 

· The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) are subject to adjustment for standard dilutive events, including the issuance of common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, that will adversely affect the Holder’s rights under the Warrants.  There were no dilutive events for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, which would have resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or number of Warrant Shares.

 

The Company had no assets measured at fair value at April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011. The Company had the following warrant liability measured at fair value on April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011:

 

    Fair value measurement  
    Quoted prices in active markets of identical
assets
    Significant other observable
inputs
    Significant unobservable
inputs
 
    (Level 1)     (Level 2)   (Level 3)  
April 30, 2012 Warrants liability     -     $ 4,912       -  
October 31, 2011 Warrants liability     -     $ 23,443       -  

 

The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of the Warrants.  The valuation of warrants liability on April 30, 2012 was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

 

Expected volatility     76.77 %
Expected dividends     0 %
Expected term (in years)     0.9 years  
Risk-free rate     0.38 %
