PREFERRED STOCK – RELATED PARTY

On August 26, 2013, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2013 Purchase Agreement”) with CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC (“CDS”) and CD Financial, LLC (“CD”). CDS and CD are limited liability companies which are affiliates of Carl DeSantis, the Company’s principal shareholder. The Company issued 2,200 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock (the “Preferred C Shares”) in exchange for the conversion of a $550,000 short term loan from CDS and the conversion of $1,650,000 in indebtedness under the Company’s line of credit with CD (the “CD Line of Credit”). The Preferred C Shares are convertible into our common stock at the option of the holder thereof at a conversion price of $0.52 per share at any time until December 31, 2018, at which time they will automatically convert into shares of our common stock determined by dividing the liquidation preference of $1,000 per Preferred C Share by the conversion price then in effect. The conversion price is subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and similar events. The Preferred C Shares accrue cumulative annual dividends at the rate of 6% per annum, payable by the issuance of additional Preferred C Shares. The holder of Preferred C Shares votes on an “as converted” basis, together with holders of common stock as a single class on all matters presented to shareholders for a vote, except as required by law. In April 2015, the Company issued 180 Preferred C Shares valued at $180,000 in settlement of $180,000 in accrued preferred C dividends. As of December 31, 2016, $303,000 of dividends has been accrued. The Preferred C Shares mature on December 31, 2018 and are redeemable only in exchange for shares of Company common stock.

On April 16, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to its existing Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”) with CD an affiliate of CDS Ventures and Mr. DeSantis. Pursuant to the Amendment, the outstanding principal amount of the CD Line of Credit was reduced by $4.0 million, which amount was converted into 4,000 shares of a newly-designated Series D Preferred Stock (the “Preferred D Shares”). This related party was given a conversion price of $0.86 per common share, whereas other investors purchased common shares at $0.89 in the private placement, as discussed in note 12. The difference of $0.03 per share, which resulted in $139,535, was recorded as a dividend in accordance with ASC 470-20-35, subsequent measurement for debt with conversion and other options. The Preferred D Shares are convertible into our common stock at the option of the holder thereof at a conversion price of $0.86 per share until the earlier of the January 2, 2020 due date of our line of credit with CD Financial or such earlier date as the line of credit is satisfied (the “Mandatory Redemption Date”). The conversion price is subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and similar events. The Preferred D Shares accrue cumulative annual cash dividends at the rate of 5% per annum, payable quarterly in cash and have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. On the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Preferred D Shares automatically convert into shares of our common stock in a number determined by dividing the $1,000 per Preferred D Share liquidation preference plus any accrued but unpaid dividends, by the conversion price then in effect. The Preferred D Shares may also be redeemed by us at any time on or after December 31, 2016, at a redemption price equal to 104% of the liquidation preference. The holder of the Preferred D Shares votes on an “as converted” basis, together with holders of common stock as a single class on all matters presented to shareholders for a vote, except as required by law. As of December 31, 2016, $51,000 of dividends has been accrued regarding these shares.
