Common Stock [Abstract] |
Common Stock | Note 13. Common Stock We have neither declared nor paid dividends on any share of common stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Sale of common stock Major transactions involving our common stock for the last three years include the following:
| • |  | In 2012, we sold an aggregate of 9,647,471 shares of our common stock at an average price per share of $2.12 for gross proceeds of approximately $20,452,000. These sales were made under a sales agreement entered into in June 2009 (2009 sales agreement) and the sales agent was paid compensation equal to 3% of gross proceeds pursuant to the terms of the agreement. The shares were offered under our shelf registration statement previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC.
| • |  | In 2012, an aggregate of 2,700,000 Series B Warrants were exercised and we received gross proceeds of $3,375,000. The remaining 5,300,000 Series B Warrants expired unexercised by their terms on May 2, 2012. For the exercise of these warrants, we issued 2,700,000 shares of our common stock and 2,700,000 Series A Warrants.
| • |  | In 2012, an aggregate of 2,198,571 Series A Warrants were exercised. For the exercise of these warrants, we issued 2,198,571 shares of our common stock and received gross proceeds of approximately $3,078,000.
| • |  | In December 2011, we raised gross proceeds of $10 million through a public offering of 8,000,000 Units and 8,000,000 Series B Warrants. The combination of Units and Series B Warrants were sold at a public offering price of $1.25 per Unit. Each Series B Warrant gave the holder the right to purchase one Unit at an exercise price of $1.25 per Unit and was exercisable until May 2, 2012, the 90th trading day after the date of issuance. Each Unit consists of one share of our common stock and one Series A Warrant. Each Series A Warrant gives the holder the right to purchase one share of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.40 per share. The Series A Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the initial financing transaction in December 2011. The shares were offered under our effective shelf registration statement previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC.
| • |  | In January 2011, we sold 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to selected institutional investors at a price of $10.00 per share. We received net proceeds, after deducting offering expenses and fees, of approximately $9,400,000. The investors were also granted an option to purchase an additional 6,000,000 shares at $10.00 per share. The option was not exercised and expired on February 18, 2011. The shares were offered under a shelf registration previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC.
| • |  | In 2011, we sold a total of 525,116 shares of our common stock under the 2009 sales agreement at an average price per share of $2.47 for gross proceeds of approximately $1,297,000. The sales agent is paid compensation equal to 3.0% of gross proceeds pursuant to the terms of the agreement. The shares were offered under a shelf registration previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC.
| • |  | In June 2010, we sold 700,000 shares of our common stock to an institutional investor, at a price of $8.65 per share. We received net proceeds, after deducting offering expenses and fees, of approximately $5,700,000. No warrants were issued in this transaction. The shares were sold under our effective shelf registration statement previously filed with the SEC. As part of the purchase agreement, the institutional investor agreed to purchase an additional 500,000 shares of common stock approximately 12 weeks after the initial sale, at our option and at a purchase price to be calculated using the then-current trading price. We decided not to sell these additional shares and on September 20, 2010, we terminated the purchase agreement.
| • |  | In 2010, we sold a total of 147,520 shares of our common stock under the 2009 sales agreement at an average price per share of $11.60 for gross proceeds of approximately $1,705,000. The sales agent is paid compensation equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds pursuant to the terms of the agreement. The shares were offered under a shelf registration previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC.
Stock Issued For Technology Licenses Under license agreements with NeuroSpheres, Ltd., we obtained an exclusive patent license covering all uses of certain neural stem cell technology. We made up-front payments to NeuroSpheres of 6,500 shares of our common stock and $50,000, and will make additional cash payments as stated milestones are achieved. Effective in 2004, we began making annual $50,000 payments, creditable against certain royalties. Effective 2008, as part of an indemnification agreement with NeuroSpheres, we offset the annual $50,000 obligation against litigation costs incurred under that agreement. The estimated balance for future offsets is included under “Other assets, non-current” on our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have concluded that the estimated balance of $600,000 as of December 31, 2012 is a fair estimate and realizable against future milestone and royalty payments to NeuroSpheres, and that litigation costs incurred after December 31, 2010 will be expensed as incurred. Management will reevaluate this estimate on a quarterly basis based on actual costs and other relevant factors. Common Stock Reserved We reserved the following shares of common stock for the exercise of options, warrants and other contingent issuances of common stock, as of December 31, 2012:
Shares reserved for share based compensation |  |  | 2,612,901 |
