NOTES PAYABLE | NOTE 9 –NOTES PAYABLE Bridge Note Financing On March 22, 2013, the Company closed a private placement of secured promissory notes (the “Bridge Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million, together with warrants exercisable for a total of up to 76,198 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $5.25 per share (the “Bridge Warrants,” and, together with the Bridge Notes, the “Bridge Securities”). At the closing of the bridge financing (the “Bridge Financing”), the Company entered into separate Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements with a total of 16 individual and institutional investors (collectively, the “Bridge Investors”), including ten (10) current Company shareholders, in which the Company sold and issued to the Bridge Investors a total of $4.0 million of Bridge Notes and Bridge Warrants to purchase 76,198 shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements") for gross proceeds of $4.0 million. The fair value of the warrants was $256,857 which was recorded as a debt discount. The debt discount as of June 30, 2013, was $166,415. The debt discount was being amortized over the expected life of the Bridge Financing, which is December 2013. Interest expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $90,443 and -0-, respectively. Frank C. Ingriselli, the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer, and member of the Company’s Board of Directors, participated in the Bridge Financing, purchasing Bridge Notes of $1 million and receiving Bridge Warrants exercisable for 19,048 shares of the Company’s common stock, and Clark R. Moore, the Company’s Executive Vice President and General Counsel, purchased Bridge Notes of $50,000 and received Bridge Warrants exercisable for 953 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively. Somerley Limited (“Somerley”) acted as the Company’s placement agent with respect to a portion of the Bridge Financing sold to non-U.S. investors. As compensation, Somerley received total cash fees of $40,000 and Bridge Warrants to purchase a total of up to 9,524 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.25 per share valued at $32,095 using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Company capitalized these amounts as deferred financing costs and will be amortized over the expected life of the Bridge Financing. Interest expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 was $25,386. Terms of the Bridge Notes The proceeds of the Bridge Financing may only be used by the Company for (i) the acquisition of the Mississippian asset; (ii) up to $300,000 to acquire an exclusive option to acquire leases and 3D seismic data covering up to an additional 7,880 gross (7,043 net) Mississippian acres located in Harper, Kiowa, Barber and Comanche Counties, Kansas, and Woods County, Oklahoma; (iii) the payment of placement agent fees; and (iv) general working capital expenses. The Bridge Notes have an annual interest rate of 10% and are due and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is thirty (30) days following the closing of the Company’s next underwritten public offering of the Company’s common stock, or (ii) December 31, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may, in its sole discretion, repay the Bridge Notes in whole or in part at any time prior to the Maturity Date. The Bridge Notes are secured by a lien and security interest in all of the Company’s assets, subject to a senior lien on the Company’s Niobrara assets held by MIE Jurassic Energy Corporation, an affiliate of MIE Holdings (“MIEJ”), which secures MIEJ’s loans to date under the Note with MIEJ described below. Upon maturity, the Company is obligated to pay to the holders an additional payment-in-kind (“PIK”) cash amount equal to 10% of the original principal amount of the Bridge Notes, or $400,000. If an event of default on the Bridge Notes occurs, the principal amount of the Bridge Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and the PIK, if any, may be declared immediately due and payable, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Bridge Notes. These amounts may automatically become due and payable upon written notice of holders of a majority of the then-outstanding principal amount in the case of certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events. The PIK liability was reflected as a debt discount to the principal and amortized over the life of the Bridge Notes, which is estimated to be in December 2013. The amount of the debt discount reflected on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2013 was $259,155; and the interest expense was $140,845 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. Terms of the Bridge Warrants. The Bridge Warrants are exercisable for shares of the Company’s common stock for a period of four (4) years commencing as of their issuance date, at an exercise price of $5.25 per share; provided, however, that the exercise price shall be adjusted to the price per share at which the Company issues common stock in the Company’s next underwritten public offering of common stock, if such price per share is lower than $5.25 per share and such offering occurs within six months of the grant date. The Bridge Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Company has determined that these warrants contain provisions that protect holders from future issuances of the Company’s common stock at prices below such warrants’ respective exercise prices and these provisions could result in modification of the warrants’ exercise price based on a variable that is not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” option. Such warrants have been recognized as derivative warrant instruments at issuance and are measured at fair value at each reporting period. The Company determined the fair values of these warrants using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model in the period ended March 31, 2013. The Company has now determined that a public offering will not be closed prior to the six month expiration of any possible exercise price adjustment on September 22, 2013. Therefore the exercise price of the warrants will not be reset and the derivative feature of the warrants has no value as of the period ending June 30, 2013. Related Party Financings MIE Jurassic Energy Corporation On February 14, 2013, the Company’s subsidiary, Pacific Energy Development Corp. (“PEDCO”) entered into a Secured Subordinated Promissory Note, as amended on March 25, 2013 and July 9, 2013 (the “Note”) with MIEJ, with an effective date of November 1, 2012. Under the Note, PEDCO may draw down multiple advances up to a maximum of $6.5 million under the Note, with repaid amounts not being permitted to be re-borrowed. Amounts borrowed under the Note may only be used by PEDCO to fund fees and expenses allocable to PEDCO with respect to its operations in the Niobrara Asset, Niobrara Asset-related acquisition expenses, and repayment of $432,433 due to Condor as a refund of the performance deposit paid by MIEJ to Condor with respect to the Mississippian Asset acquisition and applied toward the Company’s purchase price of the Mississippian Asset. When drawn, principal borrowed under the Note carries an interest rate of 10.0% per annum. Principal and accrued interest under the Note shall be due and payable within ten (10) business days of August 31, 2014. The Note may be prepaid in full by PEDCO without penalty, and is secured by all of PEDCO’s ownership and working interests in the FFT2H, Logan 2H and Waves 1H wells located in the Niobrara Asset, and all corresponding leasehold rights pooled with respect to such wells, and PEDCO’s ownership and working interests in each future well drilled and completed in the Niobrara Asset. The Note converted amounts previously advanced by MIEJ to PEDCO in the amount of $2.17 million to fund operations in the Niobrara Asset through November 1, 2012, as well as an additional $2 million loaned by MIEJ to PEDCO under the Note on February 14, 2013 and $2 million loaned by MIEJ to PEDCO under the Note on March 25, 2013, for a total current principal amount outstanding under the Note of $6.17 million as of June 30, 2013. There is currently approximately $330,000 available for future borrowing by PEDCO under the Note. Further, the Company owes $274,738 in accrued interest at June 30, 2013 under the Note.
