NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Class A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Class A Stock”)

 

On May 20, 2014, Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. (“Relmada”) completed a Share Exchange with the Company, whereby the Company acquired 94.6% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Relmada from the stockholders in exchange (“Share Exchange”) for the issuance of 28,291,073 shares of common stock to the Company’s stockholders, which represented 80.9% of Relmada’s issued and outstanding common stock after the consummation of the Share Exchange. In addition, the outstanding options and warrants were exchanged for options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at a ratio of 10 to 1. Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company had no other assets or liabilities. The principal shareholders of the Company contributed $2 million for 3,337,310 shares of the Company’s common stock and 3,337,309 shares of Class A preferred convertible shares.

 

The Class A Stock shall has dividend rights to two times the amount of any dividend granted by the Board of Directors of the Company to the holders of common stock. In the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Class A Stock shall be entitled to participate in any distribution out of the assets of the Corporation on an equal basis per share with the holders of the Company’s common stock. The holders of Class A Stock shall have no right to vote on any matter submitted to a vote of the holders of the Company’s common stock, including the election of directors.

 

The Class A Stock is automatically converted on a monthly basis into common stock on a one for one basis by action of the Corporation, in the event the total of all shares of common stock and Class A Stock held by the shareholder do not exceed 9.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the company. In no event, can Class A Stock be converted into common stock of the Corporation if such conversion would cause the holder to own, beneficially or otherwise, more than 9.9% of the Company’s stock.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

Each share of Series A preferred stock automatically converted into common stock on a one for one basis upon the Share Exchange. There were 1,360,413 shares that were converted to common stock. In addition, the conversion price was subject to adjustment upon a future down round if any future stock offerings are issued below $0.80 per share. This anti-dilution feature for the Series A preferred stock and for the warrants, made these instruments a derivative liability. The anti-dilution feature was terminated upon the Share Exchange. The dividend rate was seven percent (7%) per annum on the amount paid for each Unit of the Series A preferred stock on an “as declared” basis. The Board of Directors has not declared any dividends on these shares. Each Series A preferred share had a liquidation value equal to the subscription price of each Series A preferred share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The liquidation preference of the Series A preferred stock at December 31, 2013 was approximately $10,883,300.

 

In April 2012, the Company exchanged an aggregate of 1,879,128 shares of Series A preferred stock to convert the outstanding notes from the years 2004 and 2005 totaling $975,000 from lenders and accrued interest of approximately $566,180. In addition, the Company provided the lenders with 619,377 warrants to purchase common stock at $0.80 per share, and also allowed the lenders to exercise the warrants on a cashless basis for 541,430 shares of common stock. During 2012, the lenders exercised the warrants on a cashless basis resulting in the issuance of 541,430 shares of common stock. The Company determined that the fair value of the debt and accrued interest was more reliably determined than the fair value of the Series A preferred stock and warrants provided to the lenders and, accordingly, recorded no gain or loss on the exchange.

 

In April 2012, the Company issued 1,725,000 Series A preferred stock to Wonpung in exchange for services. The Company recorded compensation expense of approximately $1,305,200 based on the fair value of the Series A preferred stock at the issuance date, and recorded as additional paid-in capital for approximately $1,006,100 and a derivative liability for approximately $299,100. The Company recorded the fair value of the shares issued as stock-based compensation expense of $1,305,200, which was recorded as equity for approximately $1,006,100 and derivative liability for approximately $299,100. The fair value of the shares was determined via a third party valuation, see Note 4. In addition, because the shares contained certain anti-dilution protection, the conversion feature of the preferred stock was accounted for as a derivative liability.

 

During 2012, in a series of closings, the Company issued investors 4,899,375 shares of Series A preferred stock and 1,224,844 warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.80 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $3,919,500 ($3,220,018 net of offering costs). In addition, the Company issued the placement agent 612,422 warrants to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.80 per share. Both the warrants and the Series A preferred stock contain anti-dilution features deemed to be derivatives. The anti-dilution provision was eliminated upon the Share Exchange.

During 2013, in a series of closings, the Company issued investors 5,100,625 shares of Series A preferred stock and 1,275,156 warrants to purchase shares of common stock for proceeds of approximately $4,080,500 ($3,494,428 net of offering costs). The Company also issued the investors 1,275,156 warrants to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.80 per share. In addition, the Company issued the placement agent 637,578 warrants to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.80 per share.

In addition, the founder forgave excess liabilities of approximately $353,246 and the Company recorded this as a contribution of additional paid-in-capital. On January 29, 2014, the Company cancelled the aforementioned warrants to the founder for failure to perform his fiduciary duties to the Company, see Note 8.

During 2012, an executive was granted 153,802 shares of common stock. The grant date fair value of the common stock was $0.30 per share (based on a third party valuation), or approximately $46,100 in total. The vesting schedule provided that approximately 68,350 shares vested on July 10, 2012, 56,390 shares vested on July 10, 2013 and 29,052 shares vested on January 10, 2014. As a result, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of approximately $8,700, $16,900 and $20,500 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, in connection with this agreement. 

  

Common stock issued for cash

 

On May 12, May 15 and June 10, 2014, the Company completed on a private placement for the sale of units for gross proceeds of $25,745,699. The units consist of 17,163,799 shares of the Company’s common stock, Series A warrants to purchase 17,163,799 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share and Series B warrants to purchase 8,581,894 shares of common stock, at a exercise price of $2.25 per share. The Series A Warrants are exercisable immediately through October 10, 2014 and the Series B Warrants are exercisable immediately up to a period of five years from the date of issuance. The Company may call the Series B warrant for redemption upon written notice to all investors of the May and June 2014 units  (“investors”) at any time if the closing price of the common stock exceeds $3.75 per share for twenty (20) consecutive trading days provided that there an effective registration statement. In sixty days (60) business days following the date the redemption notice “Exercise Period” that is sent to the investors, each may choose to exercise their Series B warrant or a portion of their Series B warrant, by paying the exercise price of $2.25 per share.  Any warrants not exercised on the last day of the Exercise Period, will be redeemed by the Company at $0.001 per share.  The Placement Agent shall receive a warrant solicitation fee equal to five (5) % of the aggregate exercise price paid by the Series B holders upon such exercise, following a call for redemption by the Company.  The Company shall direct the Series B holder to make such solicitation fee payment directly to the Placement Agent and the Series B warrant holder shall comply with such direction. The Company issued warrants to purchase 4,290,950 shares of common stock at $1.50 to its Placement Agent (“Agent Warrants”). The Agent Warrants are immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date of issuance.

Common stock issued for acquisition of Medeor

 

In April 2012, the Company issued 17,089 shares of common stock to Medeor Inc. (“Medeor”) in connection with the acquisition of a license agreement. Management determined the fair value of the common stock to be $0.30 per share based on a third party valuation, and recorded stock-based compensation expense to research and development of approximately $5,100. At December 31, 2013, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all the outstanding stock of Medeor whose only asset was a pending research and development project. The transaction was valued at its fair value of $3,750,000 and was expensed to research and development expense. The fair value of the shares was determined via a third party valuation.

 

Options and warrants

 

The Company has established the 2012 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), which allows for the granting of common stock awards, stock appreciation rights, and incentive and nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to designated employees, nonemployee directors, and consultants and advisors. The Plan allowed for 2,409,436 options to be granted in July 2012. On March 10, 2014, the Board of Directors increased the shares under the Plan to 4,000,000. The shareholders approved to increase the shares available under the plan to 8,058,844. At June 30, 2014, no stock appreciation rights have been issued. Stock options are exercisable generally for a period of 10 years from the date of grant and generally vest over four years. As of June 30, 2014, 4,693,673 shares were available for future grants under the Plan.

 

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options and warrants. The current price of common stock was determined from a third party valuation, see Note 4. The risk-free interest rate assumptions were based upon the observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the equity instruments. The expected dividend yield was assumed to be zero as the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. The expected volatility was based upon its peer group. The Company routinely reviews its calculation of volatility changes in future volatility, the Company’s life cycle, its peer group, and other factors.

 

The Company uses the simplified method for share-based compensation to estimate the expected term for employee option awards for share-based compensation in its option-pricing model. The Company uses the contractual term for non-employee options to estimate the expected term, for share-based compensation in its option-pricing model.

 

Stock-based compensation – options

 

The Company granted an officer options to purchase 677,962 and 665,750 shares of its common stock in July 2012 and September 2013, respectively.

During November 2013, the Company granted a consultant options to purchase 187,500 shares of common stock. The options have a 10 year term and an $0.80 exercise price. 25% of the options vest on the one year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining options vest in equal quarterly increments over the following 3 years.
