On April 21, 2010, the Company issued to Anderson & Strudwick Incorporated (“A&S”) 150,000 warrants, as a portion of the placement commission for the IPO. On the same day, the Company granted a total of 7,500 warrants to Hawk Associates Inc.(“Hawks”), the Company’s investor relations consultancy. The Company had 157,500 warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2011. All the warrants issued to “A&S” have the right to purchase one share of common stock for an exercise price of $10.00 per share with a term of 5 years. All the warrants granted to Hawks have the right to purchase one share of common stock for an exercise price of $9.60 per share with a term of 5 years.

 

The fair value of the outstanding warrants at December 31, 2011 for A&S was calculated using the Black Scholes Model with the following assumptions:

(5) Life to Expiration
