In July 2002, the Company entered into an agreement for up to a maximum $5,000,000 sale of its common stock to Dutchess Private Equities Fund, LP (“Dutchess”). Under this investment agreement the Company has the right to issue a “put notice” to Dutchess to purchase the Company’s common stock. Put notices cannot be issued more frequently than every seven days. The required purchase price is equal to 92% of the average of the four lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the five-day period immediately following the issuance of the put notice. Each individual put notice is subject to a maximum amount equal to 175% of the daily average volume of the common stock for the 40 trading days before the issuance of the put notice multiplied by the average of the closing bid prices of the common stock for the three trading days immediately preceding the put notice date. Regardless of the amount stated in a put notice, the maximum amount that Dutchess is required to purchase is the lesser of the amount stated in the put notice or an amount equal to 20% of the aggregate trading volume of the common stock during the five days immediately following the date of the put notice times 92% of the average of the four lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during this five-day period. During the year ended December 31, 2003 the Company received $1,025,715 of net proceeds from the issuance of 7,420,348 shares of its common stock related to this agreement.
In connection with this investment agreement the Company issued $450,000 in convertible debentures. The debentures bear interest at 5% per year payable in cash or registered common stock at the Company’s option. The debentures mature in September 2005 and are convertible, at the option of the holder, to shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price per share equal to the lower of (i) 85% of the average of any four or five closing bid prices for the common stock for the five days prior to the conversion date; or (ii) 125% of the volume weighted average price on the closing date. These debentures were paid in full during 2003.
Question to Kelly - please explain what the bolded part means that in 9/05 if the strike price is say $.25 then Dutchess receives 1,800,000 shares of stock? Again a very expensive financing option. Obviously if the conversion has a strike price of $.75 ONLY 600,000 shares. Please answer. Thank you
In addition, the Company issued to the holders of the convertible debentures warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a strike price of $0.71 per share and a conversion period of three years. Using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) volatility of 100%, and (ii) interest rate of 5%, the value of the warrants were estimated to be $89,400, which was recorded as interest expense in the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2002. Accordingly, the actual weighted average interest rate on these debentures, including the effect of the cost of the beneficial conversion feature of $67,500, is approximately 15%.
These are my personal comments, observations, opinions and should not be relied upon for any investment decisions, and as always read the SEC filings for the facts of the company
