The Company has one authorized series of preferred stock designated as "Series E Preferred Stock." The Series E Preferred Stock has the following features:
During the year ended April 30, 2014, a shareholder converted 8,500 shares of the Companys Series E Preferred Stock (consisting of all outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock) into 54,000,000 shares of common stock. These shares were valued using the closing share price of the common stock on the day of issuance for a total of $6,475,000 resulting in a loss on conversion of $5,895,000. There are no shares of Series E Preferred Stock currently outstanding.
Holders of Series E Preferred Stock have specific rights to be paid in cash out of the assets of the Company prior to any junior class of common stock. As a result of the obligations for Series E Preferred Stock, the Company has determined these redemption features have the potential to be outside the control of the Company and, therefore, the Company has classified the Series E Preferred Stock outside of shareholders equity in accordance with ASC 480 regarding instruments with debt and equity features. Thus, the full value for the convertible Series E Preferred Stock was recorded outside of stockholders equity in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. |
