Private Placement [Abstract] |
Private Placement | Note 8. Private Placements On June 15, 2011 the Company and approximately twenty accredited investors entered into a securities purchase agreement and completed a closing of a private offering of 292,500 shares of the Company's common stock and three series of warrants to purchase up to 585,000 shares of common stock, in the aggregate, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,170,000. The Company sold the shares at an initial purchase price of $4.00 per share, which may be adjusted downward, but not to less than $2.00 per share, under certain circumstances. In addition to the shares, the Company issued: (i) Series A Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 292,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share; (ii) Series B Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 146,250 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and (iii) Series C Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 146,250 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. In August 2011, a majority of the investors in the June 15, 2011 private offering, entered into a Notice, Consent, Amendment and Waiver Agreement ("Amendment Agreement") with the Company in connection with the Bridge Debenture (defined below) offering. Under the terms of the Amendment Agreement, all the investors (i) waived any right to participate in the Bridge Debenture offering or related offerings, (ii) waived a provision prohibiting certain subsequent equity sales and (iii) amendment to per share price protection. In exchange, the Company lowered the sale price of the June 15, 2011 private offering from $4.00 per share to $2.00 per share and according issued an additional 292,500 common shares under that agreement to the investors. The Company engaged a registered broker dealer in connection with the offering and the broker dealer received a selling commission in cash of 10 percent of the aggregate funds raised, with an additional two percent in non-accountable cash expense allowance. In addition, the Company issued to the broker dealer common stock purchase warrants equal to 10 percent of (i) the number of shares and (ii) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, with an exercise price of $3.00 per share. On August 29, 2011, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $1,800,000 under a private placement of 12% Senior Convertible Debentures (the "Bridge Debentures") with six accredited investors. Investors purchased Debentures, in the aggregate principal amount of $1,800,000. The Bridge Debentures carried an interest at a rate of 12% per annum and were payable quarterly. Principal and accrued interest on the Bridge Debentures would automatically convert into equity securities identical to those sold to investors in the Company's next offering of at least $4 million of gross proceeds of equity or equity linked securities (excluding the principal amount under the Bridge Debentures) that is consummated during the term of the Bridge Debentures (a "Qualified Financing") at a conversion price equal to 80% of the price paid by investors in the Qualified Financing (the "Conversion Price"). Furthermore, the Bridge Debentures could have been converted at any time at the option of the each Investor into shares of the Company's common stock, $0.0001 par value per share at an initial conversion price of $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The Debenture was due and payable on March 1, 2012 (the "Maturity Date"). In the event a Qualified Financing was not consummated on or before the Maturity Date, the entire principal amount of the Bridge Debenture, along with all accrued interest thereon, would, at the option of the holder, be convertible into the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $2.00 per share. The Company determined that the conversion option in the debentures was beneficial at issuance. As such, the Company recorded a discount from the beneficial conversion option of approximately $244,000 which was accreted to interest expense throughout the term of the Bridge Debentures. Each investor also received a Bridge Warrant exercisable for a period of three years from the Closing Date to purchase a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Debenture by the Conversion Price at an exercise price equal to $2.00, subject to adjustment. If a Qualified Financing did not occur on or before the Maturity Date, then each Warrant would have been exercisable for that number of shares of common stock equal to the principal amount of the Debenture purchased divided by $0.90. Under the terms of the Bridge Warrant, the investor received cashless exercise rights in the event the underlying shares of common stock are not registered at the time of exercise. The Bridge Debentures and Bridge Warrants also provided for full-ratchet anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares of common stock, or securities convertible into common stock, are issued at less than the Exercise Price of the Warrants, except in connection with the following issuances of the Company's common stock, or securities convertible into common stock: (i) shares issuable under currently outstanding securities, including those authorized under stock plans, (ii) securities issuable upon the exchange or exercise of the Bridge Debenture or Bridge Warrants, (iii) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, or (iv) securities issued to the Placement Agent. See Note 9 for additional information about the Bridge Warrants. On October 28, 2011 the Company, entered into and consummated a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors for the private sale (the "2011 Unit Offering") of 243.1 units ("Unit") at $50,000 per Unit. Each Unit consisting of (i) 62,500 shares of common stock, and (ii) warrants to purchase 62,500 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.00 per share (the "Warrants"). Accordingly, for each $0.80 invested, investors received one share of common stock and one Warrant. The Company received gross proceeds of $12,155,000 (net proceeds of approximately $10,610,653 after commissions and offering related expenses) and issued an aggregate of 15,194,695 shares of common stock and 15,193,750 Warrants to the investors pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. On November 18, 2011, the Company sold an additional 6.9 Units under the Securities Purchase Agreement, receiving an additional $345,000 in gross proceeds (net proceeds of $283,600 after commissions and offering related expenses), issuing an additional aggregate of 431,250 shares of Common Stock and 431,250 Warrants to investors. The October 28, 2011 and November 18, 2011, closings brought the total raised under the Securities Purchase Agreement to $12,500,000. The Warrants are exercisable at any time within five years from the Closing Date at an exercise price of $1.00 per share with cashless exercise in the event a registration statement covering the resale of the shares underlying the Warrants is not in effect within six months of the completion of the Offering. The Warrants also provide for full-ratchet anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares of common stock, or securities convertible into common stock, are issued at less than the exercise price of the Warrants during any period in which the Warrants are outstanding, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Warrants. If during a period of two years from the completion of the 2011 Unit Offering, the Company issues additional shares of common stock or other equity or equity-linked securities at a purchase, exercise or conversion price less than $0.80 (subject to certain exceptions and such price is subject to adjustment for splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations), then the Company shall issue additional shares of common stock to the investors so that the effective purchase price per share paid for the common stock included in the Units shall be the same per share purchase, exercise or conversion price of the additional shares. The Company has provided the investors with "piggyback" registration rights with respect to the resale of the common stock and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company engaged a registered broker dealer to serve as placement agent (the "Placement Agent") who received (a) selling commissions aggregating 10% of the gross proceeds of the 2011 Unit Offering, (b) a non-accountable expense allowance of 2% of the gross proceeds of the 2011 Unit Offering to defray offering expenses, (c) five-year warrants to purchase such number of shares of common stock as is equal to 10% of the shares of common stock (i) included as part of the Units sold in this 2011 Unit Offering at an exercise price equal to $0.80 per share, and (ii) issuable upon exercise of the Warrants sold in the 2011 Unit Offering at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share, and (d) 100,000 restricted shares of common stock. The closing of the 2011 Unit Offering triggered the automatic conversion of all principal and accrued interest on the Bridge Debentures into Units in the 2011 Unit Offering at a conversion price equal to 80% of the price paid by investors in the 2011 Unit Offering, or $0.64 per share of common stock and Warrant (the "Debenture Conversion Price"). The holders of the Bridge Debentures received an aggregate of 2,869,688 shares of common stock and Warrants to purchase 2,869,688 shares of common stock. Each investor in the Bridge Offering also received a Bridge Warrant exercisable for a period of three years from the closing date of the Bridge Offering to purchase a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Bridge Debenture by the Debenture Conversion Price of $0.64 per share. Accordingly, at the closing of the 2011 Unit Offering and based on the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions of the Bridge Warrants, investors in the Bridge Offering received Bridge Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,789,063 shares of common stock. The Bridge Warrants continue to provide for full-ratchet anti-dilution protection if the Company issues at any time prior to August 30, 2012, any shares of common stock, or securities convertible into common stock, at a price less than the Bridge Warrant Exercise Price, subject to certain exceptions. Further, in connection with the 2011 Unit Offering, Octagon, the holder of the Company's debenture in the principal amount of $750,000 issued on April 8, 2011, agreed to amend the Debenture to provide for automatic conversion into the Units in the 2011 Unit Offering at the Debenture Conversion Price. Accordingly, the holder of the Debenture received 1,171,875 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,171,875 shares of common stock exercisable at $1.00 per share. The Placement Agent also served as exclusive placement agent for the Bridge Offering. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Offering, at the closing of the 2011 Unit Offering the Placement Agent and its assignees received warrants with full ratchet and anti-dilution protection to purchase an aggregate of 1,164,375 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.64 per share, each warrant exercisable on or before August 29, 2014. In connection with the 2011 Unit Offering, Steve Rogai, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, agreed to convert a 12% convertible promissory note payable to him by the Company in the principal amount of $107,000 (the "Rogai Note"), together with accrued interest thereon, into Units in the 2011 Unit Offering at a conversion price of $0.80 per Share and Warrant. As such, Mr. Rogai was issued 133,750 shares of common stock and 133,750 Warrants in satisfaction of the Rogai Note. Also, the Company's executive officers each executed a lock up agreement (the "Lock Up Agreement") which provides that each officer shall not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of their shares of common stock or other securities of the Company for a period ending 270 days after the completion of the 2011 Unit Offering. Following this initial lock-up period, each officer has agreed to an additional six-month lock-up period for their shares during which they each may not sell more than 5,000 shares of common stock per month.
