NOTE 12 - CAPITAL STOCK

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company has 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock and the Board of Directors has broad power to create one or more series of preferred stock and to designate the rights, preferences, privileges and limitation of the holders of such series. The Board of Directors has created one series of preferred stock - the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was initially convertible into one share of common stock. As a result of the failure of the Company to meet the levels of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, the conversion rate changed, and, at December 31, 2009, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into 1.3072 shares of common stock, with an effective conversion price of $0.218.  Based on the current conversion ratio, there were 9,197,436 and 11,606,605 common shares underlying the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

In addition to the conversion rights described above, the certificate of designation for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock provides that the holder of the series A preferred stock or its affiliates will not be entitled to convert the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of common stock or exercise warrants to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the investor and its affiliates of more than 4.9% of the shares of common stock outstanding after such exercise or conversion. This provision cannot be amended.

 

No dividends are payable with respect to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and no dividends are payable on common stock while Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding. The common stock will not be redeemed while preferred stock is outstanding.

 

The holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights. However, so long as any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative approval of the holders of 75% of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends or distribution of assets upon liquidation senior to or otherwise pari passu with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or any of preferred stock possessing greater voting rights or the right to convert at a more favorable price than the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in breach of any of the provisions hereof, (d) increase the authorized number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to the foregoing.

 

Upon any liquidation the Company is required to pay $0.285 for each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The payment will be made before any payment to holders of any junior securities and after payment to holders of securities that are senior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the investor has the right of first refusal in the event that the Company seeks to raise additional funds through a private placement of securities, other than exempt issuances. The percentage of shares that investor may acquire is based on the ratio of shares held by the investor plus the number of shares issuable upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock owned by the investor to the total of such shares.

 

On August 14, 2009, our Board adopted a resolution authorizing and directing that the designated shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock be increased from 9,000,000 to 9,890,980.

 

On August 14, 2009, the Company entered into a warrant exchange agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 3,595,472 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to certain investors in exchange for warrants to purchase 9,320,000 shares of common stock. Effective September 11, 2009, the warrants were surrendered to the Company, the Company filed an amendment to its certificate of designation relating to its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to increase the number of designated shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and the 3,595,472 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to the terms of the warrant exchange agreement.  All warrants surrendered in connection with the warrant exchange were cancelled.

 

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 1,843,000 and 782,500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 2,409,159 and 1,022,876 shares of common stock, respectively. The Company had 7,035,982 and 8,878,982 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

 

On February 15, 2011, the Company entered into a contract with a third party pursuant to which the Company issued two-year warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.65 per share.   Using the Black-Scholes options pricing formula assuming a risk free rate of 0.30%, volatility of 79%, a term of one year, and the price of the common stock on February 15, 2011 of $1.65 per share, the value of the warrant was calculated at $0.51 per share issuable upon exercise of the warrant, or a total of $51,428. Since the warrant permitted delivery of unregistered shares, the Company has the control in settling the contract by issuing equity. The cost of warrants was charged to selling, general and administrative. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 100,000 warrants issued and outstanding.

The Company had 90,000,000 authorized common shares at March 31, 2012 and 2011.  The Company had 17,992,177 shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2012, and 15,422,888 shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2011.
