STOCK WARRANTS AND OPTIONS

 

Warrant activity. We issued 266,667 warrants in connection with the sale of common stock during the quarter ended June 30, 2011. We have accounted for these warrants as equity instruments in accordance with EITF 00-19 (ASC 815-40), Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, and as such, will be classified in stockholders’ equity as they meet the definition of “…indexed to the issuer’s stock” in EITF 01-06 (ASC 815-40) The Meaning of Indexed to a Company’s Own Stock. We have estimated the fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the sale of common stock at $42,549 for the year ended December 31, 2011, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

 

    Warrants issued year ended December 31, 2011
Expected volatility     146 %
Expected dividend yield     0.00 %
Risk-free rate over the estimated expected life of the warrants     0.0066 %
