SOL Global is an affiliate of the Company and owns greater than 10% of its outstanding common stock. The principal and unpaid accrued interest was convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of common stock of the Company at $2.50 per share (the “Conversion Price”) and the warrant is exercisable for 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.75 per share (the “Exercise Price”).
