NOTE 13. STOCK WARRANTS, OPTIONS AND GRANTS

 

Stock options. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we issued 785,000 and 315,000 options to purchase our common stock, respectively, to members of our Board of Directors (the “Board”), independent contractors, executive officers and employees.  

 

On May 1, 2017, we entered into an employment agreement (the “Hagerty Employment Agreement”) with Harry C. Hagerty, pursuant to which Mr. Hagerty will serve as our Secretary, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer through April 30, 2020.  Pursuant to the Hagerty Employment Agreement, Mr. Hagerty receives a base salary of $120,000 per annum and is eligible for bonuses if and as approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board.  In addition, Mr. Hagerty has been granted stock options to purchase 400,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share of $0.60, subject to vesting and other conditions.  

 

 

 

The fair value of all stock options granted for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was determined to be $329,508 and $61,602, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Warrants.  On August 29, 2016, in connection with the Term Loan Agreement, we issued the lenders the Warrants to purchase 1,965,780 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.30 per share. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, and/or the exercise price of such shares, is subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments in the event of stock splits, reorganizations, stock dividends, and similar events. As of the date of the Warrant Agreement, the shares of common stock issuable upon a full exercise of the Warrants would represent 5.0% of the total issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The lenders were also granted the right, but not the obligation, to purchase up to 5.0% of the total number of new securities that we may, from time to time, sell and issue.

 

The Warrants expire on August 29, 2022, and may not be exercised prior to the earliest of (a) the fifth anniversary of the Term Loan Agreement, (b) the date on which the obligations described in the Term Loan Agreement are repaid in full, or (c) the date on which the lenders declare all or any portion of the outstanding amount of the Term Loan to be due and payable under the terms of the Term Loan Agreement (collectively, the "Trigger Date"). Exercise of the Warrants requires a sixty (60) day prior written notice, during which time we may exercise our Call Right described below.

 

The Warrant Agreement includes a call right (the "Call Right") whereby we can purchase the Warrants for a fixed sum of $1,333,333 upon providing the Warrant holders with a thirty (30) day prior written notice. Furthermore, the Warrant Agreement also includes a put right (the "Put Right") whereby the lenders may require us to purchase from the lenders all or any portion of the Warrants at a purchase price equal to the lesser of (a) the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock as of the date of exercise of the Put Right, or (b) $1,333,333. The Put Right may not be exercised prior to the Trigger Date (as defined above), and the Put Right expires on August 29, 2022.  The foregoing summary of the Term Loan Agreement and the Warrant Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the respective agreements, which are found as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 29, 2016.
