Stockholders’ Equity
 
Description of Authorized Capital
 
The Company is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock with $ 0.001 par value. The holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote per share. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds. However, the current policy of the Board of Directors is to retain earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of the business. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets of the Company that are legally available for distribution.
 
Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
On February 28, 2013 and March 6, 2013, the Company, entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of 2,142,857 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value, $ 0.001 per share at a purchase price of $ 1.40 per share, for aggregate cash proceeds of $ 2,650,000 and the exchange of $ 350,000 in previously issued convertible promissory notes issued between January 28, 2013 and February 7, 2013 to certain investors associated with the Placement Agent (the “Offering”). The Company used the net proceeds of the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, including without limitation, debt reduction purposes.
 
The Company retained Taglich Brothers, Inc. (the “Placement Agent”) as the exclusive placement agent for the Offering. In connection with the Offering, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash payment of $ 268,000, which represented an 8 % commission of the gross proceeds and approximately $ 28,000 for reimbursement for reasonable out of pocket expenses, FINRA filing fees and related legal fees. In addition, the Placement Agent earned warrants to purchase 214,286 shares of Common Stock, which represented 10 % of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering (the “Placement Agent Warrants”), which have an exercise price of $ 1.68 per share of Common Stock, will be exercisable for a period of four years, contain customary cashless exercise and anti-dilution protection and are entitled to registration rights.
 
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to (a) file a registration statement with the SEC no later than May 29, 2013 covering the re-sale of the Common Stock shares sold in the Offering and the Common Stock shares issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants. The Company also agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement become effective as soon as possible after filing (and in any event within 90 days of the filing of such Registration Statement).
 
The shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempt transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The investors are “accredited investors” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
 
Shares Issued and Outstanding and Shares Reserved for Exercise of Warrants
 
Since the issuance of the shares of Common Stock described herein, the Company has 7,123,074 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding; and 1,288,134 shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding warrants.
 
Return to Treasury of Shares and Issuance of Contingent Warrants
 
On February 15, 2013, the Company and A. Michael Chretien, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, entered into a return to treasury agreement dated February 15, 2013, whereby A. Michael Chretien returned 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share to the Company. As consideration for A. Michael Chretien returning to treasury 500,000 shares of common stock he owns, the Company issued one four-year warrant to A. Michael Chretien with a right to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at $0.007 per share within four years of the shareholders of the Company increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company, with piggyback registration rights. The warrant has a right of first refusal for A. Michael Chretien to exercise up to 500,000 shares prior to the Company issuing shares of common stock in any transaction. The Company issued the warrant in reliance on an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D, as promulgated by the SEC. Based on the closing price of the Company shares on February 15, 2013, of $1.96 per share, the approximate value of 500,000 shares is equal to $980,000.
