NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE DEBT

 

July 2012 Convertible Debentures - In July 2012, the Company issued convertible debentures (“July Notes”) with an aggregate face value of $215,300 Canadian Dollars ($197,344 as of June 30, 2014.   The July Notes mature in July 2014, bear interest at an annual rate of 10%, and are convertible at the option of the holders into Units, each consisting of a) one share of common stock and b) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at 0.40 Canadian Dollars per share (“Unit”).  The number of Units issuable upon conversion of the July Notes is determined by dividing the then outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest by a) 0.35 Canadian Dollars if a Liquidity Event, as defined in the debenture agreements, occurs within six months of the closing of the offering of the notes, or b) 0.32 Canadian Dollars if a Liquidity Event does not occur within six months of the closing of the offering of the July Notes.

 

The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature based on the intrinsic value of the conversion feature equal to the excess of the fair value of one Unit over the conversion rate of 0.32 Canadian Dollars.  The fair value of one Unit was estimated based on the most recent sale of common stock in a private placement immediately preceding the issuance of the July Notes and, for the warrant contained in one Unit, using a Black Scholes valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 50.50%, risk free rate - 0.22%, dividend rate – 0.00%.  The Company recorded a discount against the debt for the beneficial conversion feature totaling $84,788, which is being amortized into interest expense through the maturity dates of the July Notes.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded amortization of the discount of $10,599 and $21,197, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, the net carrying value of the July Notes totaled $ 193,811, net of unamortized discount of $3,533.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, interest expense on the July Notes of $4,934 and $9,817, respectively, was recorded. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, interest expense on the July Notes of $5,341 and $10,601, respectively, was recorded.

 

In connection with the issuance of the July Notes, the Company paid transactions fees to brokers consisting of cash of $85,237, and warrants to purchase 43,497 shares of common stock over a two-year period at an exercise price of 0.40 Canadian Dollars.  The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using a Black Scholes valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 50.49%, risk free rate – 0.22%, dividend rate – 0.00%.

 

The Company allocated a portion of the fair value of the consideration totaling $52,869 to debt issuance costs, which was capitalized and is being amortized into interest expense over the two-year terms of the July Notes.  The remaining portion of the fair value of the transactions costs, totaling $36,126, was allocated to equity, treated as equity issuance costs, and recorded against additional paid-in capital.  Amortization of debt issuance costs on the July Notes of $6,609 and $13,217, respectively, was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
