Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders 

Aldagen, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Aldagen, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aldagen, Inc. (a development stage company) at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s recurring losses from operations and net capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans as to these matters also are described in Note 1. The December 31, 2011 and 2010, financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2011

 

1. Description of Company and Basis of Presentation

 

Aldagen, Inc. (Aldagen or the Company) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 3, 2000, as Stemco Biomedical, Inc. and changed its name to Aldagen, Inc. in November 2005.

 

Aldagen is a biopharmaceutical company developing proprietary regenerative cell therapies that target significant unmet medical needs. The Company has developed a proprietary technology that allows it to isolate adult stem cells that express high levels of an enzyme known as aldehyde dehydrogenase, or ALDH, which the Company refers to as ALDH-bright, or ALDHbr, cells. The Company’s product candidates consist of specific populations of adult stem cells that it isolates using its proprietary technology. The Company operates as a single reportable segment.

 

The Company has participated in trials in an attempt to develop the following product candidates:

 

ALD-201 — To treat ischemic heart failure.

 

ALD-301 — To treat critical limb ischemia.

 

ALD-401 — Post-acute treatment of ischemic stroke.

 

Since inception, the Company has commercialized the following products:

 

ALDEFLUOR — An enzyme-based assay which detects stem and progenitor cells based on their high level of expression of ALDH. ALDEFLUOR has been sold since 2003 through a third-party distributor.

 

ALDECOUNT — An FDA-approved in vitro diagnostic use-product for the identification and enumeration of ALDHbr cells by flow cytometry. ALDECOUNT has been sold since 2004 through a third-party distributor.

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 915-10, Development Stage Entities, states that an enterprise shall be considered to be in the development stage if either planned principal operations have not commenced or planned principal operations have commenced but there has been no significant revenue there from. The Company’s operations since inception have consisted primarily of organizing the Company, research and development of product technologies and securing financing. Product sales of ALDEFLUOR and ALDECOUNT were $623,352 and $660,657 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $2,432,092 from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011. Accordingly, the Company will remain a development stage company until such time as significant revenues have been generated from the sale of the Company’s product candidates or a significant collaboration is entered into with a third party.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

1. Description of Company and Basis of Presentation (continued)

 

The Company has incurred losses since its inception and expects to incur substantial additional development costs. As a result, the Company will require substantial additional funds and will continue to seek private or public equity or debt financing, research funding and revenue or expense sharing from collaborative agreements to meet its capital requirements. If such funds are not available, management may need to reassess its business plans. Even if the Company does not have an immediate need for additional cash, it may seek access to the private or public equity markets if and when conditions are favorable. There is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for the Company to finance its operations on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

The Company has had minimal revenues and has incurred a cumulative loss of $79,713,213 for the period March 3, 2000 (inception) to December 31, 2011. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $12,395,421 and stockholders’ deficiency of $74,302,306 at December, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that it will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.

 

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

1. Description of Company and Basis of Presentation (continued)

 

The Company is attempting to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to raise the additional funds it requires.

 

On February 8, 2012, the Company entered into an Exchange and Purchase Agreement with Cytomedix, Inc., a Delaware corporation, where Cytomedix acquired all of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock and convertible promissory notes, making the Company a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cytomedix.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company invests its available cash balances in bank deposits and a money market account. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company maintains a Certificate of Deposit account as security for its corporate credit card. The balance of this account is $16,043 and $16,009 as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and is included in cash and cash equivalents.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company’s cash is held primarily by one financial institution.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The Company invests cash not currently used for operating purposes in a money market account. The Company is exposed to credit risk, subject to federal deposit insurance, in the event of default by the financial institution holding its cash and cash equivalents to the extent of amounts recorded on the balance sheets.

 

Accounts receivable consists of trade receivables from product sales. Other receivables result from landlord-reimbursable leasehold improvements and federal grants. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s wholesale distributor for ALDEFLUOR and ALDECOUNT accounted for 91% and 98%, respectively, of the Company’s trade accounts receivable. The Company’s credit policies include establishment of provisions for potential credit losses. Since inception, the Company has not experienced significant credit losses on its accounts receivable or other receivables. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, no allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary by management.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, notes payable, convertible promissory notes, capital leases and preferred stock warrants. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of such instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowings under the Company’s debt facilities approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2011, based on the determination that the stated rates on such debt are consistent with current interest rates for similar borrowing arrangements available to the Company. The carrying amounts of preferred stock warrant liabilities are revalued and adjusted using the Black-Scholes valuation model at the end of each reporting period to reflect their fair values.

 

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as it applies to its financial assets and financial liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the estimated exit price received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, rather than an entry price representing the price paid to purchase an asset or received to assume a liability. ASC 820-10 emphasizes that fair value is market-based rather than entity-specific and that fair value is based upon assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that ranks the quality and reliability of information used to measure fair value based upon observable and unobservable inputs. The three broad levels of the hierarchy are described below:

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

 

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company measured its preferred stock warrant liability using significant unobservable prices that are based on little or no verifiable market data, which is Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, resulting in fair value estimates of $511,224 and $1,758,551, respectively. In addition, the Company recorded $1,458,848 and $1,242,962 in other income as a result of the change in fair value of the preferred stock warrant liability for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No other financial assets and liabilities were carried at fair value as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

On January 1, 2008, the Company also adopted ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments, which gives the Company the irrevocable option to carry most financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company did not elect the fair value option permitted by ASC 825-10 for its financial assets and liabilities that had not been previously carried at fair value. Therefore, material financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value, such as the Company’s short and long-term debt obligations and trade accounts receivable and payable, are still reported at their carrying values. However, the carrying amounts of these assets approximate their fair value as described above.

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by using the weighted-average method for all inventory transactions. The Company’s policy is to record a valuation allowance for inventory that has become obsolete, has a cost basis in excess of net realizable value or is in excess of forecasted demand. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the company had recorded an inventory valuation allowance of $17,986 and $0, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, usually three to seven years. The costs of leasehold improvements and equipment under capital leases that do not transfer ownership are amortized over the life of the lease or the useful economic life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company periodically assesses the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment. The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be fully recoverable. Since inception, the Company has not recorded any such impairment.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by SAB No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). Grant revenues from cost-reimbursement contracts for research and development activities are recorded in the period in which the related costs are incurred. Grant revenues from fixed fee contracts are recorded using a proportional performance method based on the level of services provided. Direct costs associated with grant contracts are reported as incurred in research and development expense.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

During 2002, the Company was awarded a government grant of $109,485 to fund research and development activities. All grant revenue was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, and is reflected in grant revenue for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011.

 

In October 2010, the Company was awarded a total of $733,438 in grants for three qualifying therapeutic discovery projects under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The grants are intended to assist in the advancement of three of Aldagen’s ongoing therapeutic projects:

 

Treatment of Ischemic Heart Disease Patients – No Revascularization Options – ALD 201

 

Treatment of Critical Limb Ischemia Patients – No Revascularization Options (CLI) ALD – 301

 

Treatment of Post Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients – ALD – 401

 

Each project was awarded approximately $244,479, the maximum amount awarded for any single project, based on qualifying expenses incurred by Aldagen during 2009 and 2010. The total amount awarded was recognized as grant revenue during 2010.

 

Revenues from product sales are recorded when all of the SAB 104 criteria are met, which typically occurs at the time of shipment of the product to customers, as title and risk of loss are transferred upon shipment. Revenues from product sales are recorded net of applicable distributor discounts.

 

In May 2005, the Company executed an exclusive distribution agreement under which the distributor sells ALDEFLUOR. Product revenues attributable to ALDEFLUOR for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011 were $577,549, $616,817, and $2,267,904, respectively.

 

On July 21, 2011, the Company executed a license agreement with its exclusive distributor of ALDEFLOUR where the Company granted the distributor an exclusive, worldwide license to use and improve the ALDEFLOUR kits and its components in exchange for a quarterly royalty equal to 20% of the distributor’s net sales of ALDEFLOUR each quarter. The Company’s last sale of its existing ALDEFLOUR inventory occurred in December 2011 and an inventory reserve of $17,986 was recorded in December to reserve all remaining ALDEFLOUR inventory on-hand as of December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has ceased the manufacturing and selling of ALDEFLOUR.

The Company also sells ALDECOUNT through a distributor. Product revenues attributable to ALDECOUNT for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011 were $45,803, $43,840, and $164,188, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company expenses research and development costs for its own research and development activities as incurred. Research and development costs include personnel-related expenses, patent expenses, allocations of research-related overhead costs for facilities, operational support and insurance, costs of manufacturing product candidates for clinical trial activities and costs paid to third parties to conduct clinical trials. The Company accrues for costs incurred by external service providers, including contract research organizations and clinical investigators, based on its estimates of service performed and costs incurred. These estimates include the level of services performed by the third parties, patient enrollment in clinical trials, administrative costs incurred by the third parties, and other indicators of the services completed. Based on the timing of amounts invoiced by service providers, the Company may also record payments made to those providers as prepaid expenses that will be recognized as expense in future periods as the related services are rendered.

 

Deferred Rent

 

The Company recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of its operating lease and records the difference between cash rent payments and the recognition of rent expense as a deferred rent liability. The Company also records landlord-funded lease incentives, such as reimbursable leasehold improvements, as a deferred rent liability, which is amortized as a reduction of rent expense over the non-cancelable term of its operating lease. The Company’s deferred rent liability as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $123,059 and $188,144, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation

 

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for employee share-based compensation arrangements using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, share-based compensation for employees is based on the excess, if any, of the fair value of the Company’s common stock over the exercise price of a stock option on the date of the grant. Accordingly, prior to January 1, 2006, the Company did not recognize compensation cost for employee stock options, as all such options had an exercise price equal to at least the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant, as determined by the Company’s board of directors.

 

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Share-based awards, including stock options, are recorded at their fair value as of the grant date and recognized to expense on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award. Share-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, and therefore the recorded expense includes an estimate of future forfeitures. Forfeitures are to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718-10 using the prospective transition method. Under this method, the provisions of ASC 718-10 apply to all awards granted or modified after January 1, 2006. Awards outstanding at January 1, 2006 continue to be accounted for using the accounting principles originally applied to the award.

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, using a fair value approach. The Company values equity instruments, stock options and warrants granted to lenders and consultants using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

 

The measurement of nonemployee share-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received. In connection with the issuance of share-based common stock awards to nonemployees, the Company recorded share-based compensation within stockholders’ deficit totaling $45,695, $66,236, and $111,931 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, respectively.

The following table shows the weighted-average assumptions used to compute the grant date fair value of stock options granted to nonemployees using the Black-Scholes valuation model during the year ended 2010. No stock options were granted to nonemployees during the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

   Year Ended December 31 
   2010 
      
Dividend yield   0.00%
Volatility   82.90%
Risk-free interest rate   2.70%
Expected life (in years)   6.08 

 

Options issued to non-employees during the year ended December 31, 2010 have an exercise price equal to the greater of $0.955 per share or the IPO price per share, had the Company executed an underwriting agreement for an IPO on or before July 31, 2010. As an underwriting agreement for an IPO was not executed by July 31, 2010, the exercise price is fixed at $0.955 per share. As the final exercise price of these options was not known as of the grant date, the Company based its estimate of fair value upon the lowest aggregate fair value of the options, which was calculated using the initial exercise price of $0.955 per share. Since the Company had not entered an underwriting agreement for an IPO by July 31, 2010, the Company was not required to apply modification accounting to determine the then-current fair value of the stock options and recognize any additional fair value as expense at that time.

 

The following table shows the weighted-average assumptions used to compute the grant date fair value of stock options granted to employees using the Black-Scholes valuation model during the year ended December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2011, there were no stock options granted.

 

   Year Ended December 31 
   2010 
     
Dividend yield   0.00%
Volatility   85.20%
Risk-free interest rate   1.53%

The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of employee stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2010, was $0.21. There were no employee stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

The assumed dividend yield is based on the Company’s expectation of not paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Due to limited historical data, the Company’s estimated stock price volatility reflects application of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107), which provides for an estimate of volatility based on the actual volatility of comparable publicly traded companies over the expected life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve during the expected life of the option. The expected life of employee stock options is based on the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term in accordance with the simplified method prescribed in SAB 107, and the expected life for share-based compensation granted to nonemployees is the contractual term of the award.

 

The Company recognized noncash share-based compensation expense to employees in its research and development and selling, general, and administrative functions as follows:

 

           Period From 
           March 3, 
           2000 
           (Inception) 
           Through 
   Year Ended December 31   December 31, 
   2011   2010   2011

Selling, general, and administrative   129,752    234,690    1,081,521 
Total share-based compensation  $159,765   $298,853   $1,464,157 

 

Preferred Stock Warrant Liability

 

Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Pursuant to ASC 480-10, freestanding warrants for shares that are either putable or warrants for shares that are redeemable are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value. At the end of each reporting period, changes in fair value during the period are recorded as a component of other income or expense. Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounted for warrants to purchase preferred stock as equity under APB Opinion No. 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Upon adoption of ASC 480-10 on July 1, 2005, the Company reclassified $1,469,856, the fair value of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of its redeemable convertible preferred stock from stockholders’ deficit to a liability and recorded a cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, the Company recorded $1,458,848, $1,242,962, and $524,505 respectively, of other income for the decrease in fair value of preferred stock warrants.

 

Other Income and Expense

 

Interest income for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, were $5,574, $21,779, and $675,025, respectively.

 

Interest expense consists of interest relating to the Company’s capital lease obligations and loan balances and the amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs. The Company’s debt discounts represent the initial value of warrants issued in connection with promissory notes and any related beneficial conversion features associated with the debt. Interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, were $2,822,717, $2,601,360, and $10,571,952, respectively.

 

Other income and expense consists primarily of changes in the fair value of the Company’s preferred stock warrant liability and charges associated with the extinguishment of debt.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as required by ASC 740-10, Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial and tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company incurred operating losses from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, and therefore has not recorded any current provision for income taxes.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

The Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) includes guidance in ASC 605-25 related to the allocation of arrangement consideration to these multiple elements for purposes of revenue recognition when delivery of separate units of account occurs in different reporting periods. This guidance recently was modified by the final consensus reached on EITF 08-1 that was codified by ASU 2009-13. This change increases the likelihood that deliverables within an arrangement will be treated as separate units of accounting, ultimately leading to less revenue deferral for many arrangements. The change also modifies the manner in which transaction consideration is allocated to separately identified deliverables. This guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has concluded that ASU 2009-13 does not affect its financial statements.

 

At the March 2010 meeting, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue No. 08-9, Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition (Issue 08-9). The Accounting Standards Update resulting from Issue 08-9 amends ASC 605-28. The Task Force concluded that the milestone method is a valid application of the proportional performance model when applied to research or development arrangements. Accordingly, the consensus states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to recognize a payment that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. The milestone method is not required and is not the only acceptable method of revenue recognition for milestone payments. This guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has concluded that this guidance does not affect its financial statements.

Term Loan

 

In March 2006, the Company entered into a term loan agreement with a bank, which provided for the Company to borrow up to $1,500,000. The term loan carried interest at a rate equal to the bank’s prime rate plus 1.0% and initially matured on the earlier of July 26, 2006, or the date on which the Company received at least $5,000,000 in new equity financing. The term loan was collateralized by all of the Company’s equipment. In conjunction with the agreement, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of Series B Preferred at $1.00 per share. The warrant was recorded at its estimated fair value of $55,901 as a debt discount, which was amortized as a component of interest expense over the then expected remaining life of the loan. In addition, $18,559 of debt issuance costs were capitalized as a deferred asset and amortized over the then expected remaining life of the loan using the effective interest method.

2002 Notes

 

In December 2002, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (2002 Notes) with an aggregate face value of $750,000 to accredited investors. The 2002 Notes initially had a maturity date of January 2003 and an interest rate of 8% per annum. All principal and accrued interest under the 2002 Notes was to automatically convert into the Company’s equity on the same terms as the shares of preferred stock to be issued in the next qualified financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the 2002 Notes), but in the event a qualified financing was not completed prior to the maturity date, the 2002 Notes could be converted into a number of shares of existing Series A Preferred equal to 25% of the principal amount of the note, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2002 Notes, the Company issued warrants to the lenders to purchase shares of the series of preferred stock to be issued in the Company’s next qualified financing or, in the event a qualified financing did not occur by January 31, 2003, shares of Series A Preferred. The Company issued warrants to purchase 187,500 shares of preferred stock in the aggregate in accordance with the terms of the original December 2002 agreement and a January 2003 amendment, which extended the maturity date of the 2002 Notes to March 2003.

 

The Company accounted for the 2002 Notes and the related warrants in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and other options. Of the $750,000 in proceeds from the 2002 Notes, the Company allocated $622,500 to the initial carrying value of the 2002 Notes and the remaining $127,500 to the carrying value of the preferred stock warrants, based on their estimated relative fair values. In addition, the Company applied ASC 470-20 and determined that the effective conversion ratio of the 2002 Notes represented an in-the-money conversion at the time of issuance of the 2002 Notes, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature equal to the $127,500 intrinsic value. The Company recorded the beneficial conversion feature as an additional debt discount and a charge to stockholders’ equity. The aggregate debt discount of $255,000 was amortized as interest expense through the January 2003 maturity date of the notes.

In March 2003, the principal balance of the 2002 Notes of $750,000 and accrued interest of $11,833 were converted into an aggregate of 761,833 shares of Series B Preferred at $1.00 per share. In addition, as of the date of conversion of the 2002 Notes, the warrants issued in December 2002 became exercisable for 187,500 shares of Series B Preferred at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The warrants remain outstanding and expire on December 23, 2012.

 

2005 Notes With Related-Parties

 

In 2005, the Company issued promissory notes to existing shareholders (2005 Notes) with an aggregate face value of $3,862,011 in two separate tranches. The first tranche was issued in March 2005 in an aggregate principal amount of $2,574,674 and an interest rate of 8% per annum and a default interest rate of 12% per annum. The principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Notes was to be settled in the Company’s preferred stock issued upon the closing of the next equity financing. If an additional equity financing did not occur by the maturity date, the 2005 Notes were to be settled in cash. The 2005 Notes were initially scheduled to mature on December 15, 2005, but if the Company closed an additional tranche of financing prior to that date, the maturity date would be extended to May 15, 2006.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2005 Notes, the Company issued warrants to the lenders to purchase a number of shares of the series of preferred stock to be issued in the Company’s next qualified financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the 2005 Notes) equal to 50% of the principal amount of the 2005 Notes divided by the purchase price in the next qualified financing or, in the event a qualified financing did not occur prior to maturity of the 2005 Notes, warrants to purchase a number of shares of Series B Preferred equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2005 Notes divided by $1.00 per share. Each warrant had an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a term of 10 years.

Of the $2,574,674 in aggregate proceeds from the first tranche of the 2005 Notes, the Company allocated $1,292,403 to the carrying amount of the 2005 Notes and the remaining $1,282,271 to the carrying amount of the preferred stock warrants, based on their estimated relative fair values. The initial carrying value of the preferred stock warrants resulted in a debt discount and was amortized as additional interest expense over the then estimated life of the loan using the effective interest method.

 

The second tranche of the 2005 Notes was issued in November 2005 for aggregate proceeds of $1,287,337, thereby extending the maturity date for all of the 2005 Notes to May 15, 2006. The terms of the second tranche of 2005 Notes were identical to the 2005 Notes issued in the first tranche. In addition, in connection with the second tranche of the 2005 Notes, the Company issued additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,287,337 shares of the series of preferred stock to be issued by the Company in the next qualified financing, with the warrants having the same terms as the warrants issued at the first tranche closing in March 2005. Of the $1,287,337 in aggregate proceeds from the second tranche of the 2005 Notes, the Company allocated $1,282,271 to the carrying amount of the preferred stock warrants and the remaining $5,066 to the carrying amount of the 2005 Notes, based on their estimated fair values using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The initial carrying value of the preferred stock warrants was recorded as a debt discount and preferred stock warrant liability in accordance with ASC 480-10. The Company adjusts the preferred stock warrant liability for changes in fair value as of each balance sheet date (see Note 7).

 

The Company did not close an additional equity financing prior to the maturity of the 2005 Notes in May 2006. The holders of the 2005 Notes did not call the notes at their maturity and provided forbearance to the Company until the next equity financing, which closed in December 2006. However, the interest rate on the 2005 Notes was reset to the default interest rate of 12% per annum for the period from the maturity date through the next financing in December 2006. In December 2006, the principal balance of the 2005 Notes of $3,862,011 and accrued interest of $469,709 was converted into 5,951,800 shares of the Company’s Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series C Preferred) at $0.7278 per share. Each of the related warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,862,011 shares of Series B Preferred were also exchanged for warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,326,605 shares of Series C Preferred with an exercise price of $0.7278 per share. The newly issued preferred stock warrants had a term of five years from issuance and expired on December 13, 2011. The Company’s December 2006 settlement of the 2005 Notes and exchange of preferred stock warrants occurred contemporaneously with the new Series C Preferred financing and other equity transactions (see Note 8).

The Company recorded interest expense related to the 2005 Notes of $555,103 in the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011.

 

2009 Notes With Related-Parties

 

On October 22, 2009, the Company issued convertible bridge notes with an aggregate face value of $7,287,902 to certain existing accredited shareholders and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors (October convertible bridge notes). The October convertible bridge notes bear interest at 8% per annum, and are unsecured. The notes mature, and all principal and accrued interest is convertible into shares of our capital stock, on the earliest to occur of (1) an IPO, (2) a liquidating event (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation), (3) the next qualified equity financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the notes), or (4) October 22, 2010.

 

The notes were to mature no later than October 22, 2010, and the principal and unpaid accrued interest on the notes was to automatically be converted into shares of the Company’s capital stock on the earlier of the closing of an IPO, if it closed on or before October 22, 2010, or the next qualified equity financing.

 

Since the notes did not automatically convert as a result of the occurrence of one of the above events, the notes are now in default and become voluntarily convertible at the option of the note holders into shares of the Company’s capital stock upon the closing of an IPO, or a liquidating event. In addition, the interest rate on the amounts outstanding automatically increased from 8% to 12% on the unpaid principal and interest.

 

October convertible bridge note holders who elect to convert their notes as a result of an IPO will convert into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the initial public offering price per share. October convertible bridge note holders who elect to convert their notes as a result of a liquidating event will convert into shares of Series C-1 convertible preferred stock at a conversion price of $1.0411 per share of Series C-1 convertible preferred stock. October convertible bridge note holders who elect to convert their notes as a result of the next qualified equity financing will be convertible into the securities issued in that financing at a conversion price equal to the price paid per share in that financing.

5. Bridge Notes Payable (continued)

 

In connection with the issuance of the October convertible bridge notes, the Company also issued warrants to the lenders exercisable for shares of the Company’s capital stock. Each warrant is exercisable for a number and type of shares equal to 20% of the number and type of shares into which the lender’s note ultimately converts, and each warrant has an exercise price of either $0.01 per share if such warrant is exercisable for common stock, $1.0411 per share if such warrant is exercisable for Series C-1 convertible preferred stock, or the price per share paid by investors in the next qualified equity financing if such warrant is exercisable for the securities issued in such next qualified equity financing. The warrants become exercisable upon the earliest to occur of an IPO, a liquidating event or the qualified equity financing and remain exercisable until October 22, 2014, except that the warrants automatically expire upon an IPO or liquidating event if not exercised in connection with that event. The warrants include a net exercise feature entitling the holder to elect to exercise the warrant without paying the cash purchase price and to receive a smaller number of shares equal to the net value of the warrant.

 

Of the $7,287,902 in aggregate proceeds from the issuance of the October convertible bridge notes, the Company allocated $1,441,934 to the carry amount of the preferred stock warrants and the remaining $5,845,968 to the carry amount of the notes based upon their estimated fair values using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The initial carrying value of the preferred stock warrants was recorded as a debt discount and preferred stock warrant liability in accordance with ASC 480-10. The Company adjusts the preferred stock warrant liability for changes in fair value as of each balance sheet date (see Note 7). In addition, the Company applied ASC 470-20 and determined that the effective conversion ratio of the 2009 Notes represented an in-the-money conversion at the time of issuance, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature equal to the intrinsic value of the notes of $839,211. The Company recorded the beneficial conversion feature as an additional debt discount and a charge to stockholder’s (deficit) equity. The aggregate debt discount of $2,281,145 was being amortized as interest expense through the October 2010 maturity date of the notes. The Company also paid $26,357 in debt issuance costs, which were capitalized as a deferred asset and are being amortized over the remaining life of the debt using the effective interest method. The Company recorded total interest expense related to the 2009 Notes of $944,512, $2,496,023, and $3,989,829 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and for the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, respectively.

On June 20, 2011 and September 16, 2011, the Company issued convertible bridge notes with an aggregate face value of $1,080,377 and $525,004 to certain existing accredited shareholders and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the June 2011 convertible bridge notes and September 2011 convertible bridge notes, respectively). The June 2011 and September 2011 convertible bridge notes both bear interest at 8% per annum and are unsecured. The convertible debt agreements contained certain provisions for a purchase premium to be paid or accrued in addition to the original principal and accrued interest. As of December 31, 2011, this purchase premium represented an additional obligation of $1,605,381 (one times the original principal amount of the debt) which is recorded as additional interest expense for 2011. The notes mature, and all principal and accrued interest is convertible into shares of the Company’s capital stock, on the earliest of (1) and IPO, (2) a liquidating event (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation), (3) the next qualified equity financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the notes), or (4) December 31, 2011.

In connection with the issuance of the June 2011 and September 2011 convertible notes, the Company also issued warrants to the lenders exercisable for shares of the Company’s capital stock. Each warrant is exercisable for a number and type of shares equal to approximately 20% of the number and type of shares into which the lender’s note ultimately converts, and each warrant has an exercise price of either $.001 per share if such warrant is exercisable for common stock, $1.0411 per share if such warrant is exercisable for Series C-1 convertible preferred stock, or the price per share paid by investors in the next qualified equity financing if such warrant is exercisable upon the earliest to occur of an IPO, a liquidating event or the qualified equity financing and remain exercisable until June 20, 2016 and September 16, 2016, respectively, except that the warrants automatically expire upon an IPO or liquidating event if not exercised in connection with that event. The warrants include a net exercise feature entitling the holder to elect to exercise the warrant without paying the cash purchase price and to receive a smaller number of shares equal to the net value of the warrant.

 

Of the $1,080,377 and $525,004 in aggregate proceeds from the issuance of the June 2011 convertible notes and the September 2011 convertible notes, the Company allocated $173,505 and $38,417 to the carry amount of the preferred stock warrants and the remaining $906,872 and $486,587 to the carrying amount of the notes based upon their estimated fair values using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

In 2003 and 2004, the Company issued 10,015,000 shares of Series B Preferred at $1.00 per share for cash proceeds of $9,166,648, net of related issuance costs of $86,519, and conversion of debt with principal and accrued interest of $761,833.

 

In March 2005, one Series B Preferred stockholder did not purchase its pro rata share of the 2005 Notes and as a result, under the provisions of the Company’s certificate of incorporation then in effect, the stockholder’s shares of Series B Preferred were automatically converted into 1,500,000 shares of common stock on a 1-for-1 basis. In accordance with the original terms of the Series B Preferred, accrued dividends of $169,685 were eliminated upon this conversion.

 

In December 2006, the Company issued 15,124,951 shares of Series C Preferred with a purchase price of $0.7278 per share for (i) cash proceeds from existing shareholders of $6,518,333, net of issuance costs of $127,386, (ii) conversion of the 2005 Notes with principal and accrued interest of $4,331,720, and (iii) services with a fair value of $30,500, collectively constituting a first closing of the Series C Preferred (first closing). The terms of the first closing included a contingent forward put provision that required the Series C Preferred holders to participate in a second closing of Series C Preferred (second closing) with a stated number of shares and at a stated purchase price of $0.7278 per share if certain clinical and regulatory milestones were met by the Company. In addition, the Series C Preferred holders were provided a call option to purchase a specified number of shares of Series C Preferred at a second closing at a price of $0.7278 per share, regardless of whether the Company’s clinical and regulatory milestones were met.

 

In connection with the first closing in December 2006, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation and designated the existing shares of Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred collectively as “Junior Preferred.” Substantive modifications to the rights of the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred stockholders included i) extension of the redemption date from January 2008 to December 2012, ii) elimination of accrued dividends of $2,730,083 on the Series A Preferred and $2,137,462 on the Series B Preferred and elimination of any future cumulative dividends and iii) adjustment of the conversion ratios for the Junior Preferred to approximately 1.14-for-1 as a result of anti-dilution provisions. In addition, at the first closing, outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,826,011 shares of Series B Preferred with an exercise price of $0.01 per share were exchanged for warrants to purchase 1,326,605 shares of Series C Preferred with an exercise price of $0.7278 per share.

8.Common Stock, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit (continued)

 

The Company initially recorded the $482,190 fair value of the warrants to purchase Series C Preferred, estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model, as a preferred stock warrant liability. As described in Note 8, the Company adjusts the preferred stock warrant liability at the end of each reporting period for changes in fair value.

 

In accordance with ASC 260-10-S99, the modification of the outstanding Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred, in conjunction with the contemporaneous exchange of certain other equity instruments with existing stockholders, including the exchange of preferred stock warrants, settlement and conversion of the 2005 Notes into equity, and the issuance of the Series C Preferred for cash, was accounted for as a redemption of existing equity securities and the issuance of new Junior Preferred, preferred stock warrants and Series C Preferred. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of $14,517,817 attributable to common stockholders equal to the excess of the carrying value of the securities and other financial instruments redeemed over the fair value of the new equity and financial instruments issued. The following summarizes the accounting for the December 2006 transaction with existing stockholders:

 

Total cash received and carrying value of securities and instruments exchanged in the Series C Preferred first closing:          
Cash received  $6,645,719      
Carrying value of 2005 Notes and accrued interest   4,331,720      
Forbearance of 2005 Notes additional default interest   85,394     
Carrying value of Series A Preferred including accrued dividends   8,741,917      
Carrying value of Series B Preferred including accrued dividends   10,634,303     
Fair value of Series B Preferred warrant liability   3,840,973      
Total cash received and carrying value of securities and instruments exchanged in the first closing       $34,280,026 
Fair value of new instruments upon issuance:          
Fair value of Series C Preferred at issuance   10,977,439      
Fair value of Junior Preferred   8,302,580      
Fair value of Series C Preferred warrant liability   482,190      
Total fair value of new instruments upon issuance        19,762,209 
Gain on redemption and exchange of redeemable convertible preferred stock      $14,517,817

8. Common Stock, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit (continued)

 

The fair values of the Junior Preferred and Series C Preferred were determined by management retrospectively, based on the Company’s reassessment methodology as described under “Share-Based Compensation” below. The gain on redemption and exchange of redeemable convertible preferred stock is reported below net (loss) income on the statements of operations as a gain attributable to common stockholders and is recorded as a component of stockholders’ deficit. The carrying value of the Junior Preferred is accreted to its redemption value over the period from the date of issuance to the date of earliest redemption, or December 2012 in the case of the Junior Preferred.

 

In September 2007, the Company completed a second closing of the Series C Preferred (second closing) in which the Company issued 9,618,028 shares of Series C Preferred at $0.7278 per share for total cash proceeds of $6,904,296, net of issuance costs of $95,705. As a result of anti-dilution adjustments, the conversion ratio for the Junior Preferred was further adjusted to approximately 1.163-for-1. The original December 2006 Series C Preferred agreements were amended to provide that all first closing purchasers of the Series C Preferred would be obligated by contingent forward put provisions to purchase up to $6,058,654 of a newly designated Series C-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series C-1 Preferred) at $1.0411 per share as a replacement of the original Series C Preferred contingent forward put provision. Each second closing purchaser would be obligated to purchase its prorata share of the Series C-1 Preferred if specified clinical and regulatory milestones were met by the Company at any time on or before December 31, 2008. If the milestones were met and a purchaser of Series C Preferred did not purchase at least its pro rata share of Series C-1 Preferred, then all of the shares of Series C Preferred held by the stockholder would be automatically converted into shares of common stock at the then effective conversion rate for the Series C Preferred. The September 2007 amendment also revised the original call options held by the first closing Series C Preferred holders, such that all first closing Series C Preferred holders had a right, but not an obligation, to purchase its pro rata amount of the Series C-1 Preferred at $1.0411 per share prior to December 31, 2008, regardless of whether the clinical and regulatory milestones were achieved by the Company. The Company determined that the estimated fair value of the original embedded call option and contingent forward put provisions to purchase Series C Preferred was substantially equivalent to the estimated fair value of the embedded Series C-1 Preferred call option and contingent forward put provisions in existence as a result of the above amendments, and as a result there was no impact on the Company’s financial statements for this modification.

In April 2008, the Company issued an aggregate of 17,636,655 shares of Series C-1 Preferred at a price of $1.0411 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $18,321,910, net of issuance costs of $39,611. Of this amount, $6,058,654 related to satisfaction of the contingent forward put upon the achievement of specified milestones that was contemplated at the second closing of the Series C Preferred financing in September 2007. The Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended to authorize additional shares of Series C-1 Preferred beyond the amount authorized for future issuance at the time of the second closing of the Series C Preferred financing. The rights, preferences and privileges of the Series C-1 Preferred are substantially identical to those of the Series C Preferred, other than with respect to the original purchase price. The aggregate amount redeemable on the redemption date is $23,747,381 for the Series C-1 Preferred.

 

On July 23, 2009, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended to increase the number of shares of Series C-1 Preferred authorized for future issuance by 38,421 shares to a total of 17,675,076 shares.

 

On October 21, 2009, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock and Series C-1 Preferred authorized for future issuance by 12,294,688 shares in each case, to a total of 92,294,688 shares and 29,969,764 shares, respectively.

 

On June 15, 2011, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock and Series C-1 Preferred authorized for future issuance by 950,000 shares in each case, to a total of 93,244,688 shares and 30,919,764 shares, respectively.

 

On September 16, 2011, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock and Series C-1 Preferred authorized for future issuance by 162,617 shares in each case, to a total of 93,407,305 shares and 31,082,381 shares, respectively.

Dividends – The holders of Junior Preferred are entitled to receive dividends, when and as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors, and out of funds legally available, payable in preference and priority to any payment of dividends on the shares of common stock. Holders of Junior Preferred are also entitled to participate in dividends paid on the common stock on an as-converted basis. For the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, no dividends were declared or paid by the Company. Accretion of the Junior Preferred for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, was $1,035,402 and $1,035,405, respectively.

 

Conversion – As of December 31, 2011, each share of Junior Preferred was convertible into approximately 1.163 shares of common stock. Anti-dilution protection for the Junior Preferred was eliminated as part of the second closing of Series C Preferred in September 2007. In addition, the Junior Preferred is automatically convertible upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering with specified terms or the affirmative vote of the shareholders of at least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of Junior Preferred, voting as a single class together.

 

Redemption – At any time after December 13, 2012 and following redemption in full of the Series C Preferred, the holders of the outstanding Junior Preferred may, by written request, require the Company to redeem the outstanding shares of Junior Preferred stock by paying in cash a sum equal to the original purchase price of the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred plus any unpaid dividends. The Junior Preferred may be redeemed in three annual installments of amounts ranging from 20% to 50% of the aggregate amount redeemable, subject to certain provisions as described in the Company’s certificate of incorporation. On the redemption date, the Junior Preferred is redeemable for an aggregate amount of $14,519,926.

Voting – The holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred are entitled to vote, together with the holders of common stock and Junior Preferred, on all matters submitted to stockholders for vote and are entitled to vote as a separate class on certain matters affecting the holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred. The holder of each share of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which each such preferred share is convertible at the time of the vote.

 

Dividends – The holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a rate of 8% per annum of the original issue price, or when and as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors, payable in preference and priority to payment of any dividends on the shares of common stock. Holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred are entitled to participate in dividends paid on the common stock on an as-converted basis. For the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through March 31, 2011, no dividends were declared or paid by the Company. Accretion of the Series C Preferred during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, was $2,967,410 and $2,967,860, respectively.

 

Conversion – Each share of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred, at the option of the holder, is convertible into a number of fully paid shares of common stock as determined by dividing the original issue price for the applicable series of preferred stock by the conversion price in effect at the time. The Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred conversion prices are $0.7278 and $1.0411 per share, respectively, and are subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions. Each share of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred is currently convertible into one share of common stock. Mandatory conversion features exist for non-participation in an additional Series C-1 Preferred equity financing if certain regulatory and clinical milestones are met. If Series C investors do not acquire shares in the Series C-1 Preferred equity financing, then all shares of Series C Preferred held by the non-participating holder will automatically convert into shares of common stock at 1/10 of the conversion rate. In addition, the Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred are automatically convertible upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering with specified terms or the affirmative vote of certain holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred.

Redemption – At any time after December 13, 2011, certain holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred may, by written request, require the Company to redeem the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred by paying in cash a sum equal to the original issuance price of the Series C Preferred or Series C-1 Preferred, as applicable, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The Series C Preferred may be redeemed in three annual installments of amounts ranging from 20% to 50% of the aggregate amount redeemable, subject to certain provisions as described in the Company’s certificate of incorporation. On the redemption date, the Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred are redeemable for an aggregate amount of $24,795,335 and $23,747,381, respectively. This right of redemption is triggered at the election of the majority shareholders and is highly unlikely to occur. No redemption had been requested as of December 31, 2011, or as of the February 8, 2012, acquisition date (See Note 11).

 

Liquidation

 

In the event of liquidation or winding up of the Company, all holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred have a liquidation preference equal to the applicable original issue price of the series of preferred stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. After payment of the full liquidation preference to the holders of Series C Preferred and Series C-1 Preferred, the holders of Junior Preferred have a liquidation preference of $1.00 per share. After payment of these preferential amounts to the holders of preferred stock, the remaining assets of the Company would be distributed among the holders of the preferred stock and common stock on an as-converted to common stock basis.

Share-Based Compensation

 

During 2000, the Company adopted the Aldagen, Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan (the 2000 Plan), which provides for the granting of incentive and nonstatutory stock options by the Company’s Board of Directors to employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant and generally vest over four years. Options generally have 10-year contractual terms.

 

In April 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and the stockholders approved, an amendment to the 2000 Plan that increased the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2000 Plan to an aggregate of 6,649,000 shares.

 

In July 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and the stockholders approved, an amendment to the 2000 Plan that increased the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2000 Plan to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares subject to restrictions as stipulated in the plan.

 

In October 2010, the Company adopted the Aldagen, Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the granting of incentive and nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance stock awards, performance cash awards and other stock awards to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant with various vesting periods.

 

Fair Value of Common and Preferred Stock

 

The fair value of the Company’s common and preferred stock during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006 was determined by the Board of Directors with assistance from management. In connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors directed management to retrospectively assess the Company’s enterprise value and the fair value of its common stock and preferred stock at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007. This assessment was completed in February 2008. Management then performed an internal reassessment of the fair value of the Company’s common stock for stock option grants between December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007.

In conducting these retrospective valuations, the Company used a two-step methodology that first estimated the fair value of the Company as a whole and then allocated a portion of the enterprise value to its preferred stock and common stock. This approach is consistent with the methods outlined in the AICPA Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. The valuation methodology utilized the “probability-weighted expected return” (PWER) method to estimate enterprise value. The enterprise value was then validated utilizing a “market approach.” The PWER methodology involved estimating the future values of the Company for several probable liquidity scenarios. The value of the common stock was determined for each liquidity scenario and was then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The discount rate used in both valuations was 30% for the common stock and 40% for the preferred stock. The present values of the common stock under each scenario were then weighted based upon the probability of each liquidity event occurring.

 

In April 2008, September 2009, August 2010, and September 2011, the Company performed contemporaneous assessments of the Company’s enterprise value and the fair value of its common stock and preferred stock using the PWER methodology described above. The allocation of fair value between the Company’s common stock and preferred stock using the PWER methodology was as follows:

Management performed an internal assessment of the fair value of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock issued between each valuation date based upon the timing of achievement of clinical and regulatory milestones and the closing of an additional equity financing round in September 2007 and a Series C-1 Preferred equity financing round in April 2008. During 2011 and 2010, the Company was unsuccessful in raising the capital it needed to fund its trials and fund future operations, resulting in a lower valuation of the Company’s securities.

For the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company incurred no income tax expense.

 

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 consist of the following:

 

   2011   2010 
Current          
Deferred tax assets:

As of December 31, 2011, the Company provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets since realization of these benefits could not be reasonably assured. The increase in valuation allowance resulted primarily from the additional net operating loss carryforward generated.

 

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $56,795,900 and $59,658,800, respectively. These net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2020 and 2015 for federal and state purposes. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 contains provisions which limit the ability to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards in the case of certain events including significant changes in ownership interests. If the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards are limited, and the Company has taxable income which exceeds the permissible yearly net operating loss carryforwards, the Company would incur a federal income tax liability even though net operating loss carryforwards would be available in future years. The Company has completed a study to assess whether an ownership change has occurred and has determined that an ownership change occurred during 2009. Additional ownership changes in the future may result in additional limitations in the utilization of the carryforward net operating losses and credits.

9.Income Taxes (continued)

 

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2010 amended the original election to accelerate AMT and research and development tax credits in lieu of bonus depreciation enacted by the Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2009. The provisions which allowed businesses to refund a portion of their pre-2006 research and development tax credits in lieu of certain accelerated depreciation methods on fixed asset additions was extended for one year to apply to property that was placed in service in 2009. The Company received a refund of $36,039 for the year ended December 31, 2010 as a result of this provision.

 

Taxes computed at the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% are reconciled to the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 as follows:

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). The guidance was subsequently codified in ASC 740-10. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

9.Income Taxes (continued)

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10 on January 1, 2007. The ASC 740 liability at December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2011, was zero. It is the Company’s policy to record and classify interest and penalties as income tax expense, although no liability for potential interest or penalties was recorded during the year and no amounts for penalties or interest were accrued at December 31, 2010 or December 31, 2011.

 

The Company has not, as yet, conducted a study of its research and development credit carryforwards. A study may result in an adjustment to the Company's research and development credit carryforwards; however, until such a study is completed and any adjustment is known, no amounts are being presented as uncertain tax positions under FIN 48. A full valuation allowance has been provided against our research and development credits; and, if an adjustment is required, this adjustment would be offset by a corresponding adjustment to the valuation allowance. Thus, there would be no impact to the balance sheet or statement of operations.

 

The Company files U.S. and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The 2000 through 2011 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and state authorities.

 

10. 401(k) Plan

 

The Company provides a qualified 401(k) savings plan for its employees. All employees are eligible to participate, provided they meet the requirements of the plan. While the Company may elect to match employee contributions, no such matching contributions were made through December 31, 2007. Beginning January 1, 2008, the Company began providing a 100% match of employee contributions on the first 3% of a contributing employee’s salary and a 50% match on an additional 2% of salary contributed. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the period from March 3, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2011, the Company recorded $59,815, $90,464 and $325,306 of expense, respectively, for 401(k) matching contributions.

11. Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of this report, March 13, 2012 noting the following:

 

On January 12, 2012, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock and series C-1 preferred authorized for future issuance by 576,007 in each case, to a total of 93,983,312 shares and 31,658,388 shares, respectively.

 

On January 12, 2012 and January 26, 2012, the Company issued two tranches of convertible bridge notes to certain existing accredited shareholders and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors. Each tranche had an aggregate fair value of $60,000 and included the issuance of 11,518 warrants with terms consistent with the warrant issuance included with the September 2011 convertible notes (See Note 5). The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and are unsecured. The notes mature, and all principal and accrued interest is convertible into shares of the Company’s capital stock, on the earliest of (1) a liquidating event (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation), (2) the next qualified equity financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the notes), or (3) April 30, 2012.

 

On February 7, 2012, the Company issued two separate convertible bridge notes to certain existing accredited shareholders and certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors with aggregate fair values of $75,000 and $100,000, respectively. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and are unsecured. The notes mature, and all principal and accrued interest is convertible into shares of the Company’s capital stock, on the earliest of (1) a liquidating event (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation), (2) the next qualified equity financing (as defined in the agreements relating to the notes), or (3) April 30, 2012.

 

On February 8, 2012, the Company entered into an Exchange and Purchase Agreement with Cytomedix, Inc., a Delaware corporation, where Cytomedix acquired all of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock and convertible promissory notes, making the Company a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cytomedix. As consideration for the exchange of all the outstanding capital stock and convertible promissory notes, Cytomedix issued 135,398 shares of its Series E Convertible Preferred Stock to Aldagen Holdings, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company and the Company’s sole equity holder. The number of shares received was determined by dividing the agreed upon value of $16,000,000 by a price per share of Cytomedix common stock of $1.1817.

11. Subsequent Events (continued)

 

In addition to the 135,398 shares that Aldagen Holdings, LLC received as of February 8, 2012, the Company also has the right to receive up to an additional 20,309,723 shares of Cytomedix common stock, contingent upon the Company achieving certain milestones related to its ALD-401 Phase 2 clinical trial.

 

In connection with the acquisition, each outstanding option to acquire shares of the Company’s capital stock was cancelled and, in satisfaction of a closing condition, Cytomedix’s Board of Directors granted options to acquire shares of Cytomedix stock to certain Company employees, officers, directors, and advisors under Cytomedix’s Long-Term Incentive Plan. Furthermore, the 2,214,650 outstanding warrants to acquire shares of the Company’s capital stock were exchanged for warrants to acquire an aggregate of 2,155,596 shares of Cytomedix common stock with an exercise price of $1.42 per share.
