Note 11 - Share-based Payments

 

On January 23, 2014, upon effectiveness of the registration statement filed with the SEC, the Company adopted the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which will provide for the issuance of up to 400,000 shares. The purpose of the Plan is to provide additional incentive to those officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors of the Company and its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates whose contributions are essential to the growth and success of the Company’s business.

 

On January 9, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved, upon recommendation from the Compensation Committee of the Board, by unanimous written consent the Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Stock and Award Plan (the “Plan”), which increases the number of authorized shares of common stock subject to the Plan to 800,000 shares.

 

The 2013 Plan may be administered by the board or a board-appointed committee. Eligible recipients of option awards are employees, officers, consultants or directors (including non-employee directors) of the Company or of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company. The board has the authority to grant to any eligible recipient any options, restricted stock or other awards valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, our common stock.

 

  (a) Stock Warrants

 

The Company has issued warrants to various employees, consultants and members of the Board of Directors of the Company for their services either in connection with the Company’s ongoing efforts to raise capital or the development of the Company’s products. In addition, the Company has granted warrants to lenders in connection with the issuance of debt. Each warrant granted may be exchanged for a prescribed number of shares of common stock. The warrants expired March 18, 2015. The following table summarizes the warrant activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

  (b) Stock options

 

Qualified option holders may exercise their options at their discretion. Each option granted may be exchanged for a prescribed number of shares of common stock.

 

The following table summarizes the option activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

 

                Weighted        
                Average        
          Weighted     Remaining     Aggregate  
    Number of     Average     Contractual     Intrinsic  
    Shares     Exercise Price     Term (years)     Value  
Balance at December 31, 2014     175,000     $ 4.98                  
Granted     -       -                  
Exercised     -       -                  
Forfeited     -       -                  
Canceled/Expired     -       -                  
Balance at September 30, 2015     175,000     $ 4.98                  
Exercisable as of September 30, 2015     175,000     $ 4.98       3.75     $ -  

 

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the closing stock price of $3.15 for our common shares on September 30, 2015. Since the exercise price is lower than the closing stock price at September 30, 2015, there is no intrinsic value of the options exercisable at September 30, 2015.

 

The total grant date fair value of stock options vested for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $- and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $- and $549,600.

 

As of September 30, 2015, there was $- of unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding employee stock options.
