PRIME ACQUISITION CORP.
 
(A CORPORATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE)
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Note 1 — Organization and Plan of Business Operations
 
Prime Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a Cayman Islands limited life exempted company organized as a blank check company for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, plan of arrangement, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination, an operating business.
 
The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Offering”) was declared effective March 24, 2011. The Company consummated the Offering on March 30, 2011 and received net proceeds of $34,712,656, including $1,008,000 in deferred underwriter’s fees. In connection with the Offering, the Company further received $1,638,800 from the private placement sale of Placement Warrants (Note 3). On May 10, 2011, the underwriters of the Offering exercised their over-allotment option in part, for an additional 52,975 units (over and above the 3,600,000 units sold in the Offering), and the Company received additional net proceeds of $518,096, including $14,833 in deferred underwriter's fees. Substantially all of the net proceeds from the Offering and private placement are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a business combination (“Business Combination”). The Company’s management has complete discretion in identifying and selecting a target business. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. As of December 31, 2012, $36,620,933 is being held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) liquidation of the Company. The funds being in a trust account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages execute agreements with the Company waiving any right in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions, and initial and continuing general and administrative expenses.
 
On February 22, 2013, a binding letter of intent (“LOI”) was entered into by and between us and BHN, Srl. (“BHN”) setting forth terms for an acquisition by us of a newly formed entity that is not affiliated with BHN (“Target”), which will, directly or indirectly, own a portfolio of real estate properties in southern Europe. We refer to the acquisition of Target by us as the Acquisition. The LOI sets forth the principal terms for the Acquisition, and the parties have agreed pursuant to the LOI to negotiate in good faith a definitive purchase agreement setting forth all of the terms and conditions of the Acquisition. Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated in the LOI and subject to the terms of the definitive purchase agreement, we will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Target in exchange for our assuming certain debt obligations under promissory notes or mortgages of the Target with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $175 million and the issuance of our ordinary shares for the balance of the value of Target’s business at a valuation of $10.00 per share. In accordance with the terms of the LOI, the valuation of the Target and its portfolio of properties is approximately $200 million, however, the exact composition of such portfolio is subject to adjustment prior to execution of the definitive agreements. Accordingly, the number of shares to be issued at the closing will be adjusted to account for variations in the total valuation of the Target and its portfolio of properties. On March 18, 2013, we and BHN issued a joint press release providing additional information about the proposed portfolio of properties to be acquired in the Acquisition.
 
We were not able to complete the Acquisition prior to March 30, 2013, the date by which we were required by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and trust agreement governing the Trust Account to complete our initial business combination. Accordingly, our board of directors determined that it would be in the best interests of our shareholders for us to continue our existence for an additional six months (until September 30, 2013), rather than dissolve as required by our articles of association, which we refer to as the Extension. In order to effect the Extension, our shareholders approved certain amendments to our Articles of Association and the trust agreement governing the Trust Account at a special meeting of shareholders held on Wednesday, March 27, 2013.
 
 
7
 
In connection with the Extension, our board of directors determined that it was in our best interest to allow shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their ordinary shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account pursuant to an amendment (which was approved as part of the Extension) to the agreement governing the Trust Account by means of a tender offer, which we refer to as the Extension Tender Offer. Following approval of the Extension, the Extension Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., United States Eastern Time on the evening of Thursday, March 28, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Extension Tender Offer, 3,008,955 of our ordinary shares were tendered and accepted for redemption by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $30,149,729. As a result of the Extension Tender Offer, a maximum of 23,014 additional shares may be redeemed in connection with the Acquisition.
 
On February 25, 2013, the Company, BHN and certain funds affiliated with AQR Capital Management, LLC (collectively, the “AQR Funds”) entered into agreements, pursuant to which the Company has granted the AQR Funds the right to put an aggregate of 535,000 ordinary shares to the combined company at a price of $10.55 per share for a period of four months following completion of the Acquisition. Pursuant to the agreements and in exchange for receiving the put right, the AQR Funds agreed not to tender any shares held by them in the Extension Tender Offer or in any future issuer tender offer that the Company may conduct in connection with a business combination. In connection with the put arrangement, the Company paid the AQR Funds a fee of $0.10 per share (an aggregate of $53,500) and will pay an additional fee of $0.20 per share (an aggregate of $107,000) on the three month anniversary of the execution of the put agreements. Chardan Capital Markets, LLC will also receive a fee of $0.20 per share (an aggregate of $107,000) upon closing of the Acquisition. The parties also agreed to place $10.02 per share (an aggregate of $5,360,700) into escrow following completion of the Acquisition until the put rights are exercised or expire.
 
The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, is required to provide shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account. In the event that shareholders owning 83% or greater of the total number of shares issued in the Offering (“Public Shares”) exercise their redemption rights, including shares redeemed in connection with the Extension, the Business Combination will not be consummated. All of the Company’s shareholders prior to the Offering, including all of the officers and directors of the Company (“Initial Shareholders”), have agreed to waive any redemption rights they may have in connection with the Business Combination.
 
With respect to a Business Combination which is consummated, any shareholder may demand that the Company convert his or her shares. Any shareholder will have the right to demand that such shareholder’s shares be converted into a pro rata share of the Trust Account, initially approximately $10.02 per Public Share.
 
Following the Extension, the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that the Company will continue in existence until September 30, 2013. If the Company has not completed a Business Combination by such date, this will trigger the winding up of the Company and it will liquidate and distribute the proceeds held in the Trust Account to the Public Shareholders.
 
On May 23, 2013, Prime and BHN LLC (“BHN” or “Manager”) entered into a Management Agreement, in connection with the previously announced proposed business combination transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, and subject to the closing of Prime’s initial business combination, Prime appoints Manager to manage the assets of Prime following the business combination on an exclusive basis. In exchange for the portfolio management and related services provided by Manager, Prime will pay a management fee equal to 1.9% of the value of the managed assets (one-twelfth of which is payable in arrears monthly). In addition, Manager is entitled to a one-time equity grant equal to 3.5% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Prime at the time of the closing of the business combination, provided the minimum value of the assets acquired in the transaction is greater than $150 million. If Prime pays a cash dividend equal to $0.50 per share to its holders of ordinary shares following the business combination, the Manager shall be entitled to a bonus equal to 10% of the adjusted net operating income (as defined in the agreement) for each year following the payment of such dividend. At or promptly after closing, Prime is required to establish a stock incentive plan providing for the issuance to the Manager of options to purchase up to 1 million ordinary shares. Manager will be responsible for compensation expenses of its management team, and Prime will be responsible for all of Prime’s expenses. The Management Agreement provides indemnification provisions for the Manager and Prime. The term of the agreement commences upon closing of the initial business combination and extends for a period of five years, which term renews automatically for additional 5 year terms thereafter.
 
On June 22, 2013 and July 9, 2013 the Company entered into definitive agreements to acquire certain real estate assets in Italy, as more fully described below in Note 9.

On August 30, 2013, the Company and BHN entered into Purchase Agreements with Radiomarelli SA, a Swiss company, and Futurum Energy SA, a Swiss investment company to purchase green certificates. In addition, the Company signed a Securities Purchase Agreement with Radiomarelli SA separately for a private placement. These agreements are more fully described below in Note 9.
 
On August 12, 2013, Prime issued a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO to purchase up to 23,014 of its ordinary shares, par value $0.001per share, at a purchase price of $10.02 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest. On September 30, 2013, the Company announced the expiration and final results of this tender offer and the closing of Prime’s business combination transaction. The tender offer expired at 5 p.m. New York City time on Friday, September 27, 2013, with one share tendered (see note 9 below).
 
As of June 30, 2013, the total legal expenses incurred related to the Business Combination after the Company’s initial public offering on March 30, 2011 was approximately $812,290. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has a payable to its legal counsels of $796,545.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
 
Use of Estimates
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles pursuant to Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial and related notes as contained in Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2012. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results of the operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain reclassifications have been made in the financial statements at June 30, 2012 and for the periods then ended to conform to the June 30, 2013 presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the net loss.
 
Geographical Risk
 
The Company’s operations, if a Business Combination is consummated outside the United States, will be subject to local government regulations and to the uncertainties of the economic and political conditions of those areas.
 
Fair Value
 
The Company measures fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Fair value measurements are applied under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Financial instruments included in the Company’s balance sheets consist of cash and cash equivalents, investments held in trust, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, and due to related parties.
 
Investments Held in Trust
 
Investment securities consist of United States Treasury securities. The Company classifies its securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.”  Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity.  Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.
 
Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method.  Such amortization and accretion is included in the “interest income” line item in the statements of operations. Interest income is recognized when earned. 
 
 
9
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company was incorporated as a Cayman Island exempted company and therefore the Company is not currently subject to income tax. Upon consummation of an acquisition as contemplated, the Company may be subject to income tax depending on the jurisdiction and nature of the merged entity’s operations.
 
Redeemable Common Stock
 
The Company accounts for redeemable common stock in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99 “Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities,”  which provides that securities that are redeemable for cash or other assets are classified outside of permanent equity if they are redeemable at the option of the holder. In addition, if the redemption causes a liquidation event, the redeemable securities should not be classified outside of permanent equity. Accordingly, 3,031,969 shares of common stock sold in the Offering are classified outside of permanent equity at redemption value. 3,008,955 shares of such common stocks has been tendered and accepted for redemption by the Company for an aggregated purchase price of $30,149,720 pursuant to the terms of the Extension Tender Offer expired on March 28, 2013. As a result of the Extension Tender Offer, a maximum of 23,014 additional shares may be redeemed in connection with the business combination. The Company recognizes changes in the redemption value in the period they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the redeemable common stock to equal its redemption value at the end of each reporting period.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
Share-based compensation expense related to non-employee options is recognized in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” for equity instruments issued to other than employees for acquiring goods and/or services.
 
The Company estimates the fair value of option awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of awards under this model represents management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment.
 
Earnings per Share
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The 1,564,000 units issued to the Company’s Initial Shareholders were issued for $0.001 per share, which is considerably less than the Offering per-share price; such shares have been assumed to be retroactively outstanding for the period since inception. In March 2011, the Company’s Initial Shareholders forfeited, and the Company cancelled 156,400 units. On May 10, 2011, the Company’s initial shareholders further forfeited, and the Company cancelled an additional 165,592 units in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.
 
Potentially dilutive securities include:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The adoption of recently effective accounting standards did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements; nor does the Company believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations when adopted.

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
 
The registration statement for the Offering was declared effective on March 24, 2011. On March 30, 2011, the Company sold 3,600,000 Units, at an Offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $36,000,000. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, $0.001 par value, of the Company and one Redeemable Purchase Warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase from the Company one ordinary share at an exercise price of $7.50 commencing upon the later of the completion of a Business Combination, or March 30, 2012. The warrants expire on March 30, 2016, unless earlier redeemed. The Company may redeem the Warrants, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon 30 days’ notice while the Warrants are exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the ordinary shares is at least $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given. If the Company redeems the Warrants as described above, the Founder warrants and the Placement Warrants may be exercised on a “cashless basis.’' In such event, the holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering his Warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (X) the product of the number of ordinary shares underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (Y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to holders of Warrants. In accordance with the warrant agreement relating to the Warrants to be sold and issued in the Offering, the Company is only required to use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the Warrants. The Company will not be obligated to deliver securities, and there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities, if a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise. Additionally, in the event that a registration is not effective at the time of exercise, the holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrant and in no event (whether in the case of a registration statement not being effective or otherwise) will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrant exercise. Consequently, the Warrants may expire unexercised and unredeemed.
 
In connection with the Offering, the Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 540,000 additional Units solely to cover over-allotments. On May 10, 2011, the Company announced that the underwriters of its Offering exercised their over-allotment option in part, for a total of an additional 52,975 units (over and above the 3,600,000 units sold in the Offering) generating additional gross proceeds of $529,750.
 
The 3,652,975 units sold in the Offering, including the 52,975 units subject to the over-allotment option, were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $36,529,750. A total of $36,606,096, which includes a portion of the $1,638,800 of proceeds from the private placement of Placement Warrants (as defined below) to the founding shareholders, has been placed in trust.
 
In connection with the Extension, our board of directors determined that it was in our best interest to allow shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their ordinary shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account pursuant to an amendment (which was approved as part of the Extension) to the agreement governing the Trust Account by means of a tender offer, which we refer to as the Extension Tender Offer. Following approval of the Extension, the Extension Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., United States Eastern Time on the evening of Thursday, March 28, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Extension Tender Offer, 3,008,955 of our ordinary shares were tendered and accepted for redemption by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $30,149,729.
 
The Company agreed to pay the underwriters in the Offering an underwriting discount of 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. However, the underwriters agreed that a portion of the underwriting discounts equal to 2.8% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (or $1,022,833) will not be payable unless and until the Company completes a Business Combination and have waived their right to receive such payment upon the Company's liquidation if it is unable to complete a Business Combination.

On March 24, 2011, certain of the Initial Shareholders purchased an aggregate of 2,185,067 warrants (the “Placement Warrants”) from the Company in a private placement pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Placement Warrants were sold for a total purchase price of $1,638,800 or $0.75 per warrant. The private placement took place immediately prior to the consummation of the Offering. The Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants contained in the Units except that the Placement Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis at any time after a Business Combination even if there is not an effective registration statement relating to the shares underlying the Warrants so long as such Placement Warrants are held by these individuals or their affiliates and are subject to certain transfer restrictions. Pursuant to that certain Placement Warrant Purchase Agreement, the purchasers have agreed that, with certain exceptions for certain gifts to family members, by virtue of the laws of descent, and pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, the Placement Warrants will not be sold or transferred by them until after the Company has completed a business combination.
 
In addition, at the closing of the Offering, the Company issued a unit purchase option, for $100, to the representative of the underwriters and/or its designees to purchase 215,000 Units at an exercise price of $12.00 per unit. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to the units being offered in the Offering. The Company accounted for the fair value of the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Offering resulting in a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. The Company estimated that the fair value of this unit purchase option is approximately $728,850 (approximately $3.39 per unit) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
 
The fair value of the unit purchase option granted to the underwriter is estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 43.55%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 1.44% based on the five-year U.S. Treasury Note and (3) expected life of 5 years. The volatility assumption is based on the average of two post-merged blank check companies operating in the greater China region in uncorrelated sectors (media and agriculture). Thus, the Company believes that the volatility estimate is comprehensive enough, considering that the Company does not have a specific target industry. The Company believes also that the volatility estimate calculated is a reasonable benchmark to use in estimating the expected volatility of the Company’s Units. Although an expected life of five years was used in the calculation, if the Company does not consummate a business combination within the prescribed time period and automatically dissolves and subsequently liquidates its Trust Account, the option will become worthless. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash. The Company will have no obligation to net cash settle the exercise of the unit purchase option or the warrants underlying the unit purchase option. The holder of the unit purchase option will not be entitled to exercise the unit purchase option or the warrants underlying the unit purchase option unless a registration statement covering the securities underlying the unit purchase option is effective or an exemption from registration is available. If the holder is unable to exercise the unit purchase option or underlying warrants, the unit purchase option or warrants, as applicable, will expire worthless.

Note 4 — Investments Held in Trust
 
Substantially all of the net proceeds from the Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination. Management agreed to place the net proceeds from the Offering into the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) liquidation of the Company. The placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages execute agreements with the Company waiving any right in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions and Balances
 
The Company entered into five non-interest bearing unsecured promissory notes with one director of the Company in a principal amount total of $420,000. The notes shall be repaid on the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination or liquidation of the Company.
 
From time to time Company’s executives incurred expenses on behalf of the Company for various office and travel expenses.  No interest is charged by the executives on any outstanding balance owed by the Company. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, six months ended June 30, 2012, and the periods from February 4, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2013, total expenses paid by the executives on behalf of the Company totaled $135,074, $84,643 and $434,563 respectively. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has a payable to its executives of $272,366.
 
The Company has agreed to pay Kaiyuan Real Estate Development (“Kaiyuan”) a total of $7,500 per month for office space, administrative services and secretarial support for a period commencing March 30, 2011 and ending on the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination or liquidation of the Company. Kaiyuan is an affiliate of Mr. Yong Hui Li, the Company’s chairman. The total expenses incurred under this agreement for the six months ended June 30, 2013, six months ended June 30, 2012, and the period from February 4, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2013 were $42,333, $32,211, and $180,812, respectively. Commencing on February 1, 2012 and ended January 31,  2013, the Company has arranged to secure additional office space, administrative services and secretarial support in Taipei. Fees for the additional office space, administrative services and secretarial support were deducted from the $7,500 monthly fee paid to Kaiyuan by the Company. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has a payable to Kaiyuan of $180,812.

Note 6 — Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company defines fair value as the amount at which an asset (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The fair value estimates presented in the financial statements and its accompanying notes are based on information available to the Company as of June 30, 2013.
 
The accounting standard regarding fair value measurements discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The standard utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
 
 
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
 
 
 
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
 
 
 
 
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
 
The Company has no assets or liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis or assets carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2013.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Equity

Note 8 – Share-Based Compensation
 
On February 25, 2010 the Company’s board of directors authorized and issued 20,000 of stock options, each option to purchase one ordinary share of the Company to directors, employees and consultants of the Company.  The ordinary shares underlying the options will be restricted from receiving any funds held in the Trust Account.

For the period from February 4, 2010 (inception) to December 31, 2010, management used the following assumptions for the Black-Scholes inputs: On the option grant date, a current stock price of $9.65 was used for determining the fair value of the Company’s stock. This was based on observations of market prices for comparable shares of common stock for similar companies who have completed IPO’s, an expected volatility based on the average expected volatilities of a sampling of three companies with similar attributes to the Company, including: industry, stage of life cycle, size and financial leverage, an expected dividend rate of 0% based on management plan of operations, a risk free interest rate based on the current U.S. Treasury 5-year Treasury Bill and an expected forfeiture rate of 0%. Management’s estimated fair value of the common stock of $9.65 differs from the IPO price of $10.00 by $0.35. This difference is attributable to the additional value of the warrant to purchase one share of common stock included in the IPO units. Management determined this difference as noted above by observing current market prices for common stock and separately trading public warrants for comparable public companies.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, management used the following assumptions for the Black-Scholes inputs: On the option valuation date, the current stock price of Prime was used for determining the fair value of the Company’s stock based on the closing price of common stock on the valuation date. An expected volatility based on the average expected volatilities of a sampling of three companies with similar attributes to the Company, including: industry, stage of life cycle, size and financial leverage. The expected dividend rate of 0% is based on management’s plan of operations. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury 5-year Treasury Bill on the date of measurement. The Company expects that no options will be forfeited.
 
The fair value of the 7,500 outstanding unvested shares of $74,767 at June 30, 2013 will be recognized when the performance completion date has occurred and the options vest.
 
Share-based compensation expense from non-employee stock options totaled $85,653, $107,683 and $510,383 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and for the period from February 4, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2013, respectively.
