The Company evaluated the terms of its convertible notes payable in accordance with ASC 815 – 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock and determined that the underlying common stock is indexed to the Company’s common stock. The Company determined that the conversion feature did not meet the definition of a liability and therefore did not bifurcate the conversion feature and account for it as a separate derivative liability. The Company evaluated the conversion feature for a beneficial conversion feature. The effective conversion price was compared to the market price on the date of each note. If the conversion price was deemed to be less than the market value of the underlying common stock at the inception of the note, then the Company would recognize a beneficial conversion feature resulting in a discount on the note payable, upon satisfaction of the contingency. Under the terms of the convertible notes, the conversion feature would be contingent upon shareholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company by at least 25,000,000 shares. On August 6, 2014, the shareholders voted to effectuate a 7-to-1 reverse stock split, which effectively increased the number of available shares and resolved the contingency on the conversion features.
