NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Our board of directors may, without further action by our shareholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of any authorized but unissued or unreserved shares of preferred stock in series and at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series. The holders of such preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of our common stock. Furthermore, the board of directors could issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock.

Stock Warrants

 

 

On June 30, 2017, we issued warrants to purchase up to 15,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share to the members of the Scientific Advisory Board with a term of five years, which vested upon issuance. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes method to fair value the warrants received by the members of the Scientific Advisory Board at $1,400 with the following assumptions: volatility, 150%; expected dividend yield, 0%; risk free interest rate, 1.83%; and a life of 5 years. The grant date fair value of each share underlying the warrant was $0.09.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized approximately $12,000 and $24,000 in equity compensation expense for the accrued but unvested portion of the warrants issued to an employee pursuant to his agreement with the Company.

 

In June 2017, we modified the terms of outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of common stock.  Pursuant to a settlement agreement, we extended the term of the warrants by 2 years and decreased the exercise price by $0.03 per share to $0.12.  Pursuant to ASC 718, the modified terms of the warrants resulted in approximately $196,000 in incremental equity compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017.  We utilized the Black-Scholes model to fair value the warrants under the original and modified terms with the following range of assumptions: volatility, 81%–97%; expected dividend yield, 0%; risk free interest rate, 1.28%; and a life of 0.33–2.33 years, respectively. The grant date fair value of each share underlying the warrants was $0.01 and $0.06, respectively.

 

               As of June 30, 2017, we accrued for and expensed approximately $23,000 in equity compensation expense in connection with the issuance of a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, which we issued in July 2017 to our CEO in connection with his employment agreement. The warrant has a term of 5 years. We utilized the Black-Scholes model to fair value the warrant received by our CEO with the following assumptions: volatility, 153%; expected dividend yield, 0%; risk free interest rate, 1.90%; and a life of 5 years. The grant date fair value of each share underlying the warrant was $0.09.

 

In March and May 2017, in connection with the issuance of the Notes, we issued three-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 999,998 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.69 per share (see Note 6).
