DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES [Abstract]

DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The Company’s warrants and its Convertible 8% Senior Secured Notes issued in 2008 and 2010 have reset provisions to the exercise price and conversion price if the Company issues equity or other derivatives at a price less than the exercise price set forth in such warrants and notes. This ratchet provision results in a derivative liability in our financial statements.

Our derivative liabilities increased to $14,660,273 at March 31, 2012 from $11,031,432 at December 31, 2011.  The change in fair value during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $3,628,841 as compared to $1,836,765 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
