Note 13 – Stockholders’ Deficit

Authorized Capital

The Company has 10,000,000,000 authorized shares of Common Stock at $0.0001 par value and 5,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock at a par value of $0.01.

Preferred Stock

The Company has 5,000,000 shares, par value $0.01, of preferred stock authorized. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding shares of preferred stock consisting of shares of its Series I-1 Preferred Stock and shares of its Series I-2 Preferred Stock (both of which are more fully discussed in Note 12), 10 shares of its Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”), 1,750,000 shares of its Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) and 250,000 shares of its Series K Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series K Preferred Stock”).

The Series H Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of 85% of the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock at the time of conversion.

In September 2017, the Company issued 1,750,000 shares of its Series F Preferred Stock valued at $174,097 in connection with the acquisition of Genomas Inc. Genomas Inc. is included in the Company’s discontinued operations, which are discussed in Note 17. Each share of the Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our common stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the related certificate of designation) at any time after the first anniversary of the issuance date at the option of the holder at a conversion price equal to the greater of $14,625 or the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion. The maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock is 120. Any shares of Series F Preferred Stock outstanding on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date will be mandatorily converted into common stock at the applicable conversion price on such date. At any time, from time to time after the first anniversary of the issuance date, the Company has the right to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding Series F Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to $1.95 plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. The Series F Preferred Stock has voting rights. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock has one vote, and the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of the Company’s common stock as a single class.

On December 23, 2019, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Alcimede LLC (“Alcimede”), of which Seamus Lagan, our Chief Executive Officer, is the sole manager as previously stated. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued to Alcimede 250,000 shares of its Series K Preferred Stock in exchange for the 250,000 shares of the Company’s Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series J Preferred Stock”) held by Alcimede. The holder of the Series J Preferred Stock was entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, but only out of funds that were legally available therefor, cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 8% of the stated value per annum on each share of Series J Preferred Stock. The Series J Preferred Stock had been issued to Alcimede on July 23, 2018 and upon the issuance of the Series K Preferred Stock to Alcimede, the shares of Series J Preferred Stock were cancelled. Under the Agreement, Alcimede relinquished all rights to any cumulative dividends on the Series J Preferred Stock. The terms of the Series K Preferred Stock do not provide for cumulative dividends. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, Alcimede LLC exchanged the Series K Preferred Stock for Series L Convertible Preferred Stock as more fully discussed in Note 19.

Common Stock

The Company has authorized 10,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share.

The Company had 9,898,936,775 and 9,648,936,775 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company issued 250,000,000 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of 21.25 shares of its Series I-2 Preferred Stock.

Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents

The Company has outstanding options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures. Exercise of the options and warrants, and conversions of the convertible preferred stock and debentures could result in substantial dilution of our common stock and a decline in its market price. In addition, the terms of certain of the warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures issued by us provide for reductions in the per share exercise prices of the warrants and the per share conversion prices of the debentures and preferred stock (if applicable and subject to a floor in certain cases), in the event that we issue common stock or common stock equivalents (as that term is defined in the agreements) at an effective exercise/conversion price that is less than the then exercise/conversion prices of the outstanding warrants, preferred stock or debentures, as the case may be. These provisions, as well as the issuances of debentures and preferred stock with conversion prices that vary based upon the price of our common stock on the date of conversion, have resulted in significant dilution of our common stock and have given rise to reverse splits of our common stock.

Effective June 9, 2020, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, at a specific ratio from 1-for-100 to 1-for-10,000, and to grant authorization to its Board of Directors to determine, in its discretion, the specific ratio and timing of the reverse split at any time on or before December 31, 2020, subject to the Board of Directors’ discretion to abandon such amendment. See Note 19. As a result of this authorization, as of the date of filing this report, the Company believes that it has the ability to have sufficient authorized shares of its common stock to cover all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.

Stock Options

The Company maintained and sponsored the Tegal Corporation 2007 Incentive Award Plan (the “2007 Equity Plan”). Tegal Corporation was the prior name of the Company. The 2007 Equity Plan, as amended, provided for the issuance of stock options and other equity awards to the Company’s officers, directors, employees and consultants. The 2007 Equity Plan terminated pursuant to its terms in September 2017. The following table summarizes the stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

All outstanding stock options as of March 31, 2020 were fully vested as of December 31, 2019 and, accordingly, the Company did not incur stock option compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company recognized stock option compensation expense of $8,650 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average remaining contractual life was 6.08 years for options outstanding and exercisable. The intrinsic value of options exercisable at March 31, 2020 was $0.

Warrants

The Company, as part of various debt and equity financing transactions, has issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

At March 31, 2020, there were 634.6 billion warrants outstanding primarily as a result of the anti-dilution provisions of outstanding warrants that were issued in connection with the issuances of debentures as more fully discussed in Note 8. The number of warrants issued and outstanding as well as the exercise prices of the warrants reflected in the table below have been adjusted to reflect the full ratchet and other dilutive and down round provisions pursuant to the warrant agreements. As a result of the current exercise prices for the majority of the outstanding warrants (subject to a floor in some cases), as well as the full ratchet provisions of the majority of the outstanding warrants (again, subject to a floor in some cases), subsequent decreases in the price of the Company’s common stock and subsequent issuances of the Company’s common stock or common stock equivalents at prices below the current exercise prices of the warrants will result in (1) increases in the number of shares issuable pursuant to the warrants and (2) decreases in the exercise prices of the warrants.

The following summarizes the information related to warrants issued and the activity during the three months ended March 31, 2020:

On March 27, 2019, the expiration date of certain warrants issued in March 2017 and September 2017, referred to as the March 2017 Series B Warrants and the September 2017 Series B Warrants, were extended from June 2019 to September 2019. The Company used the Black Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value of the warrants as of the modification date. Using the pre-modification term and related assumptions, and the post-modification term and related assumptions, the Company determined that the change in fair value of the warrants as a result of the modification was $4.1 million, as more fully discussed in Note 11. Accordingly, the Company recorded the $4.1 million as interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2019. (Note that these expiration dates of these warrants were further extended during May 2019 until March 31, 2022).
