Common Stock Warrants

 

In May 2011, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a financial advisory firm to provide services to the Company for an initial term of eighteen (18) months at a rate of $12,000 per month. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may defer the monthly payment, in exchange for the issuance of 200,000 common stock purchase warrants. The warrants have a five (5) year term and an exercise price of $0.20 per share or 105% on the date of issuance. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has issued 1,600,000 warrants under this agreement, valued at $119,094.

 

In June 2011, the Company extended the exercise period for one year on 956,873 warrants to purchase common stock in the Company that had an original termination date of July 31, 2011.

 

In the fourth quarter of 2009, warrants to purchase 1,750,000 shares of common stock (fair value of $295,050) were granted in settlement of $195,000 in outstanding accounts payable and a six-month financial advisory services contract with the Company’s financial advisory firm, which warrants were allocated to principals of the firm (“Advisory Warrants”). The Advisory Warrants have an exercise price of $0.55 and a term of five years. Of the $100,050 allocated to the financial advisory services contract, $16,675 was expensed as consulting expense in 2009, and as of December 31, 2009, $83,375 was recorded as prepaid consulting.

 

In May 2011, the Company exchanged the Advisory Warrants together with warrants to purchase 319,000 shares of common stock held by principals of the Company’s financial advisory firm for 2,069,000 shares of common stock in consideration for $100,000 of debt financing.

 

In consideration for the management and other executive services provided by Drs. Shalom Hirschman and William Fleming, the Company issued 500,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock to each of Drs. Hirschman and Fleming. The shares are subject to certain vesting requirements and are subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances. Drs. Hirschman and Fleming serve as the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, and President and Chief Science Officer, respectively.
