Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | 17. Related Party Transactions Stockbridge Convertible Note - In March 2012, we issued the Convertible Note to Stockbridge, a related party. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Note, we issued four warrants (Warrants1-1 through 1-4) in March 2012. On July 16, 2013, Stockbridge elected to convert $3,000,000 in principal and $34,500 of accrued interest of the Convertible Note of into 8,382,597 shares of our common stock. With the conversion, the contingent Warrants 1-2, 1-3, and 1-4 were cancelled. Allonge to the Convertible Note - In October 2012, we amended the Convertible Note. The original principal amount was increased to $3,000,000 from the original $1,000,000 amount. The maturity of the note was changed to October 1, 2014. The conversion rate of the Convertible Note was changed to $.50 per common share prior to the maturity date and $.25 per common share after the maturity, subject to certain adjustments. In connection with the amendment, we issued Warrant 1-5 in October 2012 and issued 100,000 shares of our common stock. Second Allonge to the Convertible Note - On March 29, 2013, the terms of the note and the warrants were amended and additional warrants were issued to Stockbridge. Under the amendment on March 29, 2013, Earth911 and Stockbridge entered into the Second Allonge, pursuant to which the parties agreed to (i) change all references to common stock, options, warrants, warrant shares, or convertible securities of Earth911 in the original note documents and the Allonge documents to our common stock, options, warrants, warrant shares, or convertible securities, respectively, and (ii) expand all references to a “Triggering Event” in the original note documents and the Allonge documents to include any exchanges on which our common stock may be listed or quoted for trading. The parties also (i) amended how the fair market value of our common stock, on the date of exercise, would be defined in a formula used to calculate the net number of shares that Stockbridge would receive upon a cashless exercise, (ii) extended the maturity date of the Convertible Note to October 1, 2015, (iii) revised the terms of Warrant 1-5 to apply the conversion rate from the Earth911 to the number of shares of our common stock underlying Warrant 1-5 and the exercise price at which such shares would be issued upon the exercise date, and (iv) amended the exercisable dates of the contingent Warrant 1-2, the contingent Warrant 1-3, and the contingent Warrant 1-4 to be exercisable 42 months, 45 months, and 48 months, respectively, following the issuance date of the contingent warrants. Finally, Stockbridge retroactively agreed to waive its right to effect a partial conversion of the Convertible Note, with such waiver to be effective for a period of 12 months from October 17, 2012. To effect the changes in the Second Allonge, we issued to Stockbridge an additional warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock (“Warrant 1-6”). Warrant 1-6 is exercisable at or after the date of the Second Allonge, and is in the same form as Warrant 1-5, as amended by the Second Allonge. Warrant 1-6 will expire five years from the date of issuance. See Note 9 for a discussion of the Convertible Note and of the exercise of the related exercisable warrants in March 2013. Acquisition of the Quest Interests - On July 16, 2013, we acquired all of the Quest Interests held by QRG, comprising 50% of the membership interests of Quest. The purchase price for the Quest Interests consisted of 22,000,000 shares of our common stock issued at a fair market value of $2.50 per share based on the closing price of the stock on the date of the transaction and the Sellers Notes as described in Note 9 in the aggregate principal amount of $22,000,000. The total purchase price of $77,000,000 was paid to the owners of QRG who at the time of the transaction were related parties: the Chief Executive Officer of Quest and the President of Quest. After the close of the transaction, the Chief Executive Officer of Quest became the President, Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board of Directors of our company. Unpaid interest related to the Sellers Notes at December 31, 2013 was $132,878. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides that QRG and its members may not engage or take a financial interest in any Competitive Business within the Restricted Territory (each as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) for a period of five years. The Securities Purchase Agreement also provides restrictions with respect to customers of Quest and non-solicitation of employees of Quest for a period of five years. The Securities Purchase Agreement further provides that if there is an event of default on the Sellers Notes, QRG and its members may compete with us and solicit customers, provided that they resign from all positions held with us first.
