The Company's Chairman and CEO invested $600,000 in the October 2010 Private Placement, receiving 300,000 warrants with an exercise price of $1.50, 150,000 First Contingent Warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 and 150,000 Second Contingent Warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 as per the aforementioned terms of the offering.

In connection with the October 2010 Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement that provides “Piggy-Back” registration rights to each investor.

Under the terms of the offering, for each share purchased, the investor received one 5-year warrant to purchase the common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The terms of the warrant, (the “Callable Warrant”) are that for every two shares of common stock purchased, the holder is issued a 5-year warrant to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The Callable Warrant does not carry registration rights and is callable by the Company at any time after the issuance if the closing sale price of the Stock exceeds $1.75 for 15 or more consecutive trading days. Upon written notice, the Company may redeem the Callable Warrant at a price of $0.01 per share.

Additionally, the Company issued to each lender a warrant (the “First Contingent Warrant”)  to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to 25% of the shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the principal of such lender's Note, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, provided that such First Contingent Warrant shall only be exercisable if the Company's gross revenues, as reported in the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, do not equal or exceed $11,500,000 and further provided that such Warrant shall be null and void in the event that prior to issuance of such Audited Financial Statements (the “First Measurement Date”) the closing trading price of the Stock is at least $1.50 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days. The Company also issued to each lender an additional warrant  (the “Second Contingent Warrant”) to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to 25% of the shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the principal of such lender's Note at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, provided that such Second Contingent Warrant shall only be exercisable if the Company's gross revenues, as reported in the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, do not equal or exceed $31,150,000, and further provided that such Second Contingent Warrant shall be null and void in the event that, between the date of issuance of the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, (the “First Measurement Date”) and  the date of issuance of such audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, (the “Second Measurement Date”), the closing trading price of the Common Stock is at least $1.75 for ten or more consecutive trading days. The First Contingent Warrant and the Second Contingent Warrant are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Contingent Warrants”.  The Contingent Warrants have a term of five years from the date of issuance. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Contingent Warrants do not carry registration rights. The Contingent Warrants may be exercised on a “cashless” basis. The contingent warrants have not been included in our earnings per share calculation per the guidance in ASC 260-10-45-13 Earnings per share: Treatment of Contingently Issuable Shares in Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding which states that shares issuable for little or no cash consideration upon the satisfaction of certain conditions (contingently issuable shares) shall be considered outstanding common shares and included in the computation of basic EPS as of the date that all necessary conditions have been satisfied (in essence, when issuance of the shares is no longer contingent). The maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Contingent Warrants is 3,091,661 shares.
