Unsecured Notes Payable

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company received $200,000 for a 10% unsecured note payable, due April 27, 2013. In December 2012, this note payable and accrued interest of $9,167 was converted into 4,703,711 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Private Placement of 8% Series A Notes Payable

In August 2009, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $300,000 consisting of up to 6 units. Each unit consists of a $50,000, 8% Series A Note Payable, due September 30, 2011, and a non-detachable warrant to purchase 2 million shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2009, the Company sold 4 units, issued $200,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued 8 million warrants, and raised $180,000, net of commission of $20,000. In January 2010, the Company sold 0.5 unit, issued $25,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued 1 million warrants, and raised $17,500 net of commissions of $7,500. The commissions were treated as deferred finance charges and are expensed over the term of notes payable, which have been fully expensed.

 

The 8 million warrants in 2009 were valued at $15,450, fair value, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair-value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of between 30.9% and 34.5%, risk free interest rate between .95% and 1.06% and warrant life of approximately 2 years. The 1 million warrants in 2010 were valued at $20,143, fair value, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair-value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 28.6 %, risk free interest rate of .84% and warrant life of approximately 2 years.

 

In June 2011, the maturity date on the $150,000 of the 8% Series A Notes Payable and the term on the associated 6 million warrants were extended to September 30, 2015. As a result, the warrants were revalued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the incremental fair-value of the warrants of $21,275, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 60%, risk free interest rate of 1.52% and warrant life of approximately 1.25 years. As part of the debt extension, the lender holding the 6 million warrants agreed in writing to suspend its right to exercise these warrants until such time that the Company’s authorized shares have been increased. The authorized shares of the Company’s common stock were increased effective May 23, 2013 from 425,000,000 to 675,000,000.

 

The relative fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes Payable have been treated as a debt discount with an offsetting credit to additional paid-in capital. The debt discount related to the warrant issuances is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. When the warrants were revalued the incremental amount of $21,275 was also treated as additional debt discount and is being accreted over the new term of the 8% Series A Notes Payable. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the unaccreted debt discount related to warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes payable was $9,914 and $13,632. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 accreted interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount was $1,239 and $3,718 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, accreted interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount was $1,239 and $3,718.

 

During the third quarter of 2011, $25,000 plus accrued interest of the 8% Series A Notes Payable were repaid and 3 million of the associated warrants expired unexercised.

 

Private Placement of 25% Notes Payable

In 2010, the Company issued $400,000 in notes payable in order to finance a patent infringement lawsuit (see Note 14 - Contingencies to these condensed consolidated financial statements). The notes payable accrue interest at 25% per annum and mature upon the earlier of September 1, 2013 or the date on which the Company receives net proceeds from the patent infringement claim. In addition to the base interest of 25% per annum, the lenders are entitled to Bonus Interest equal to the following:

 

a. First monies realized by the Company from its share of the net proceeds of the lawsuit shall be allocated and paid to the Lender until the principal and base interest accruing has been fully paid.
b. The next monies from the net proceeds of the litigation settlement will be paid to the Company to reimburse for out-of-pocket legal costs related to the lawsuit.

 

c. The next $825,000 of proceeds will be split 50%/50% between the Company and the Lenders.
d. The next $1 million realized by the Company shall be allocated 90% to the Company and 10% to the Lenders.
e. The next $1 million realized by Company shall be allocated 85% to Company and 15% to Lenders.
f. All remaining proceeds realized by Company shall be allocated 80% to Company and 20% to Lenders.

 

The Lenders have a security interest in the Company’s patent infringement claim in which the Lender has the right to the net proceeds of this lawsuit to satisfy outstanding principal and interest under the notes.

 

As part of the private placement of the 25% notes payable, the Company incurred debt placement fees of $34,500 in 2010. These debt placement fees have been treated as deferred finance charges and are being amortized to interest expense over two years. During 2012, the deferred finance charges were fully amortized. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 amortization of deferred finance charges was $3,937 and $12,562.

 

In December 2012, $250,000 of these notes payable and accrued interest of $122,397 were converted into 8,219,911 shares of the Company’s common stock. In March 2013, the remaining $150,000 of the notes payable and accrued interest of $70,000 were converted into 3 million shares of the Company’s common stock. Accrued interest of $13,895 was paid in cash.
