NOTE 12 - CAPITAL STOCK

 

Preferred Stock

 

We have 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock and our 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. Our 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 our failure  to meet certain levels of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, the conversion rate changed, and each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock became convertible into 1.3072 shares of common stock, with an effective conversion price of $0.218.  Based on the current conversion ratio, there were 1,927,508 and 2,477,508 common shares underlying the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, 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 Convertible 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 cannot be repurchased 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, we shall not, without the affirmative approval of the holders of 75% of the 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 our certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in breach of any of the foregoing provisions, (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 we will be 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, pursuant to which the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was sold, each investor has the right of first refusal in the event that we seek to raise additional funds through a private placement of securities, other than certain exempt issuances. The percentage of shares that an investor may acquire is based on the ratio of our common stock held by the investor as a result of the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock or represented by the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by the investor on an as converted basis to the total of shares of common stock into which the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted.

 

On August 14, 2009, our board of directors 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, we entered into a warrant exchange agreement pursuant to which we 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 us, we filed an amendment to the certificate of designation relating to the 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, 2015 and 2014, 550,000 and 3,055,490 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 718,954 and 3,994,133 shares of common stock, respectively. We had 1,927,508 and 2,477,508 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
