Effective June 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of EITF 07-05 “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to a Company's Own Stock,” which was codified into ASC Topic 815 – Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock. The Company has 11,735,004 of warrants with exercise reset provisions, with its debt issuances over the years, which are considered freestanding derivative instruments. ASC 815 requires these warrants to be recorded as liabilities as they are no longer afforded equity treatment assumptions: risk free rates from 1.32% to 1.39%, expected life terms ranging from 0.5 years to 2.0 years, an expected volatility range of 206% to 251% depending on the term of such equity contracts and a dividend rate of 0.0%. The fair value of the warrants issued and outstanding at May 31, 2010, attributed to this derivative liability has been determined to be immaterial due to the low stock price in comparison to the exercise price, hence there was no adjustment to make upon adoption of this accounting standard. As of  May 31, 2013,  10,044,922 of these warrants expired. The stock price remains low and the fair value of the derivative liability remains immaterial.
  
SETTLEMENT OF DEBT
 
As a direct result of the Sale of the License and IP Agreements to STUS and the mandate to obtain debt releases, the Company has been able to settle its debts with its secured creditors and employees, with cash payments made as of the December 2010 and June 2011 closings.
 
The continuing settlements with unsecured and related parties have resulted in gain being recorded in the amount of $482,784 in fiscal 2012. As of May 31, 2012, there remained $5,259,926 of debts to be settled via the issuance of equity on as yet to be determined or negotiated terms. The majority of debt holders who have settled have agreed to accept equity for their remaining debt. As of May 31, 2013, and as a result of additional financing of operations throughout the fiscal year, the balance is $6,204,926.
 
During the quarter ended August 31, 2012 the Company negotiated the settlement of additional debts resulting in $10,000 being paid for the settlement of $12,025 of recorded liabilities, resulting in a gain on the settlement of such debts being recorded in the amount of $2,025.
