STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY |
|
Preferred
Stock |
|
Effective
April 8, 2020, the Company exchanged an aggregate of approximately $6.95 million of all its
outstanding Notes, representing principal and accrued interest through April 7, 2020, for
1,391 shares Series A Preferred Stock (the “Exchange”). As the Exchange was accounted
for as a debt extinguishment, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock were recorded at fair
value of $11,591,623 (before reduction of $29,150 related to issue costs) based on a per share
fair value of $8,333. The per share fair value was determined using the number of common stock
shares in a conversion (33,333 = $5,000 original issue price divided by $0.15 conversion price)
multiplied the $0.25 market price of a share of common stock. See the Warrants section below
and Note 14 for additional information.
Each
share of Preferred Stock has a $5,000 issue price. Dividends accrue on the issue price at a rate of 10.0% per annum and
are payable to holders of Preferred Stock as, when and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. As the Company
will likely not pay the dividends in cash, and instead, the unpaid accrued dividends will be settled upon conversion to
shares of common stock, the Company will record dividends distributable at the contractual dividend rate upon declaration.
The dividends are cumulative and shall accrue starting from the April 8, 2020 issuance date. Dividends distributable of
$100,461 at May 31, 2020 have not yet been declared by the board of directors.
Each
share of Preferred Stock is convertible into the number of shares of common stock equal to the issue price divided by
the conversion price of $0.15. Upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, all accrued and unpaid dividends will be converted
to common stock utilizing the same conversion formula. The conversion price is subject to proportional adjustment for
certain transactions relating to the Company’s common stock, including stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions.
Holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Corporation based on their shares’ aggregate issue price and accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders may convert
their shares of Preferred Stock into common stock at any time and the Company has the right to cause each holder to convert
their shares of Preferred Stock at any time after the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the original issue date if the
common stock has traded for more than twenty (20) consecutive trading days above $0.50 (as adjusted for stock splits,
stock dividends and similar transactions). Holders of shares of Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote with the holders
of common stock, however, for so long as there are 423 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, the Company is required
to obtain the consent of the holders of the Preferred Stock to take certain corporate actions, including to incur indebtedness
in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate. In addition, the Company agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to register
the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock in due course following the Exchange.

Warrants |

At
the closing of the Exchange, in accordance with the security purchase agreements, as amended, pursuant to which the Notes
were issued, the Company also issued 1,498,418 warrants (the “Warrants”) to the holders reflecting 4,000 warrants
for each $1,000 of unpaid interest accrued on the Notes. The Warrants are exercisable for one share of common stock at an
exercise price of $0.25 per share on or before either October 22, 2023 (for Warrants issued for interest accrued on Notes
issued in October 2019, April 2019 and May 2019 and related January 2020 Notes) or January 22, 2024 (for Warrants issued for
interest accrued on Notes issued in July 2019 and September 2019 and related January 2020 Notes). As the transaction was accounted
for as a debt extinguishment (See Note 14 for additional information), the Warrants were recorded at fair value of $239,747
using a Monte Carlo simulation model. |

During
March 2020, the Company raised approximately $3.2 million through early warrant exercises, where 19,979,107 warrants were exercised
for 19,979,107 shares of common stock. As these warrants were issued on October 22, 2018, April 22, 2019, May 20, 2019, July 22,
2019, September 16, 2019 and January 15, 2020, see below for the initial terms of the warrants. The warrant exercise price was
reduced from $0.25 to $0.16 per warrant to induce warrant holders to exercise. The Company recorded warrant inducement expense
of $845,415 under other (expense) income in the statement of operations, which represents the difference between fair value at
the reduced price of $0.16 per warrant and fair value at the contractual price of $0.25. The fair values of the warrants at $0.16
and $0.25 were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. |
