NOTE
5. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible
Notes Payable consist of the following at September 30,
2011:
Convertible
Notes Payable consisted of the following at March 31,
2011:
All
of the Convertible Notes Payable in the above tables are
presently past due or will be due within one year of the
September 30, 2011 balance sheet date. As a result, we expect
to amortize all of the remaining discounts during the fiscal
year ending March 31, 2012.
AMENDED
AND RESTATED SERIES A 12% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
June 2010, we entered into Amended and Restated 12% Series A
Convertible Promissory Notes (the "Amended and Restated
Notes") with the holders of certain promissory notes
previously issued by the Company (“Amended Series A 10%
Convertible Notes” or the "Prior Notes"), and all
amendments to the Prior Notes.
The
Amended and Restated Notes, in the principal amount of
$900,000, are convertible into an aggregate of 4,500,000
shares of our common stock subject to antidilution
adjustments, including down round price protection, and
matured on December 31, 2010. In connection with the
restructuring we paid $54,001 of accrued and default interest
through the date of the restructuring, liquidated damages of
$205,000 and $54,003 of prepaid interest through the
expiration date in the aggregate amount of $313,004 through
the issuance of units ("Units") at a fixed rate of $0.20 per
Unit, each Unit consisting of one share of our common stock
and one common stock purchase warrant to purchase one share
of our common stock at a fixed exercise price of $0.20 per
share as prescribed in the Amended and Restated Note
Agreement.
In
addition to the extension of the expiration date of the
Amended and Restated Notes to December 31, 2010, we agreed to
increase the annual interest rate from ten percent to
twelve percent. We also agreed to change the exercise prices
on all of the warrants held by the noteholders to $0.20 per
share, to change certain formerly contingent warrants to
non-contingent warrants and to extend the expiration date of
their warrants to February 2016. The following table
summarizes the number of shares of our common stock issuable
upon the conversion of the Amended and Restated Notes or the
exercise of the various warrants issued or issuable pursuant
to the Amended and Restated Notes.
For
accounting purposes, the amendment of the 12% Series A
Convertible Notes was treated as a debt extinguishment in
accordance with FASB ASC 470-50, Debt-Modifications and
Extinguishments, as the terms of the restructured agreements
were deemed to be substantially different than those of the
prior agreements.
Based
on conversion and exercise price re-set provisions included
in the Amended and Restated Notes warrant agreements,
the embedded conversion feature and the related warrants,
with an aggregate estimated fair value of approximately
$3,089,000, were classified as derivative liability
instruments (See Note 9).
Consequently,
at the amendment date we recorded a loss on extinguishment of
$2,226,924 as follows:
As
of December 31, 2010, the Amended and Restated Notes matured
and as of September 30, 2011 are in default.
We
have begun discussions with the noteholders regarding an
extension to the notes but there can be no assurance that we
will be able to do so on terms that we deem acceptable or at
all.
At
September 30, 2011, interest payable on the Amended and
Restated Notes totaled $101,250.
2008
10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
One
2008 10% Convertible Note in the amount of $25,000 which
matured in January 2010 remains outstanding at September 30,
2011. This note is convertible into our common stock at $0.50
per share. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 we
agreed to convert the $20,000 principal and related accrued
interest of $5,562 of one holder of the 2008 10% Convertible
Note into 127,808 shares of common stock based upon a
conversion ratio of $0.20 per share rather than at the stated
conversion ratio of $0.50 per share. As a result of this
change, we recorded a charge of $15,337 as interest expense
in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.
At
September 30, 2011, the remaining $25,000 principal balance
was in default and interest payable on the remaining note
totaled $9,792.
DECEMBER
2006 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
At
September 30, 2011, $17,000 of the December 2006 10% Notes
remained outstanding and in default. These notes are
convertible into our common stock at $0.17 per share. At
September 30, 2011, interest payable on those notes totaled
$11,971.
MAY
& JUNE 2009 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
May and June 2009, we raised an aggregate amount of $350,000
from the sale to accredited investors of 10% convertible
notes ("May & June 2009 10% Convertible Notes"). The May
& June 2009 10% Convertible Notes matured at various
dates between November 2010 through December 2010 and are
convertible into our common stock at a fixed conversion price
of $0.20 per share prior to maturity. Upon conversion of the
May and June 2009 10% Convertible Notes the note holders
will receive a matching three year warrant to purchase
unregistered shares of our common stock at a price of $0.20
per share.
After
consideration of the warrants, we recorded a discount
associated with the beneficial conversion feature of $233,735
related to the May & June 2009 10% Convertible Notes and
we amortized that discount over the terms of the respective
convertible notes using the effective interest method.
The
following conversions of the May & June 2009 10%
Convertible Notes have taken place during the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2011 and 2010:
As
a result of the warrant issuances we recorded charges of
$31,550 and $74,652 as additional interest expense in the
fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2011,
respectively.
On
or about June 23, 2011, the holder of the two remaining May
& June 2009 10% Convertible Notes, John Barsell, filed a
complaint against us entitled John E. Barsell
v. Aethlon Medical, Inc., in the Superior Court of the
State of California for the County of San Diego, Case No.
37-2011-00093374 (the “Lawsuit”). The
complaint alleged breach of contract in connection with
certain notes in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000
issued by us to Barsell in 2009. On August 15,
2011, we and Barsell signed a Settlement Agreement under
which we agreed to repay the notes and related accrued
interest in cash or in common stock, at the election of the
Company, on a monthly basis over approximately a ten month
period of time. In exchange, Barsell dismissed the
Lawsuit without prejudice. The agreed monthly
payments are $25,000 if in cash or $30,000 if in stock with
$25,000 of the $30,000 amount going towards principal
reduction and the remaining $5,000 as a penalty for paying in
stock.
Over
the three months ended September 30, 2011, Barsell converted
$50,000 of principal into 775,000 shares of our common stock
over two monthly issuances. Those share issuances
also covered $10,000 in penalties as noted above.
At
September 30, 2011, the remaining principal balance of
$150,000 was in default and interest payable on these notes
totaled $58,509 (see Note 12).
JULY
& AUGUST 2009 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
July and August 2009, we raised an aggregate amount of
$668,250 from the sale to three investment funds of 10%
convertible notes ("July & August 2009 10% Convertible
Notes"). Each note carried a one-year term and is convertible
into our common stock at 80% of market with a floor of $0.15
cents and a ceiling of $0.25 cents per share. As additional
consideration, the investors also received 1,336,500 three
year warrants to purchase our common stock at $0.50 per
share, although that exercise price is subject to change
based on certain conditions. The conversion feature may
additionally be adjusted in the event of future financing by
the Company. Because the conversion feature and warrant
exercise price each can be reset based on future events, they
are classified as derivative liability instruments.
Based
on the initial estimated fair value of the conversion feature
and warrants, we recorded a discount associated with the
derivative liability of $475,762, which was amortized using
the effective interest method over the one-year term of the
notes. Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with
this financing totaled $60,750, which were capitalized and
are being amortized using the effective interest method over
the one-year term of the notes.
The
following conversions of the July & August 2009 10%
Convertible Notes have taken place during the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2011 and 2010:
At
September 30, 2011, the remaining principal balance of
$87,500 was in default and interest payable on those notes
totaled $38,554.
OCTOBER
& NOVEMBER 2009 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
October and November 2009, we raised $430,000 from the sale
to accredited investors of 10% convertible notes ("October
& November 2009 10% Convertible Notes"). The October
& November 2009 10% Convertible Notes mature at various
dates between April 2011 and May 2011 and are convertible
into our common stock at a fixed conversion price of
$0.25 per share prior to maturity. The investors also
received matching three year warrants to purchase
unregistered shares of our common stock at a price of $0.25
per share. We measured the fair value of the
warrants and the beneficial conversion feature of the notes
and recorded a 100% discount against the principal of the
notes. We are amortizing this discount using the effective
interest method over the term of the notes.
The
following conversions of the October & November 2009 10%
Convertible Notes took place during the fiscal years ended
March 31, 2011 and 2010:
The
following conversions of the October & November 2009 10%
Convertible Notes took place during the six months ended
September 30, 2011:
Deferred
financing costs of $20,250 incurred in connection with this
financing were issued in the form of a convertible note with
warrants on the same terms as those received by the
investors. We capitalized the $20,250 of deferred
financing costs and amortized them over the term of the notes
using the effective interest method.
At
September 30, 2011, the remaining principal balance of
$75,000 was in default and interest payable on those notes
totaled $16,875.
FEBRUARY
2010 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTE
On
February 12, 2010, we raised $280,015 in cash and received a
secured promissory note in the amount of $300,000 in exchange
for the issuance by the Company of a $660,000 principal
amount 10% convertible promissory note (the "Note") to Gemini
Master Fund, Ltd. ("Gemini"). The Note included an original
issue discount of ten percent, or $60,000, and an origination
fee of three percent, or $9,000. We also paid legal fees of
$10,985. The Note issued by the Company matured in February
2011. The terms of the promissory note included a maturity
date of April 1, 2011, and allowed for prepayments of
principal and interest by Gemini beginning on September 1,
2010.
The
conversion price per share initially was equal to eighty
percent (80%) of the average of the three lowest closing bid
prices of our common stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. on
the Principal Market for the ten (10) trading days preceding
the conversion date, subject to a maximum price per share of
$0.30 and a minimum price per share of $0.20 (the "Floor
Price"). The Note is convertible into a maximum of 3,300,000
shares of our common stock at the minimum price per share of
$0.20. The investor also received 660,000 three-year warrants
to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.50 per share,
although that exercise price is subject to change based on
certain conditions. The conversion feature, including the
Floor Price, may additionally be adjusted in the event of
future financing by the Company. Because the conversion
feature and warrant exercise price each can be reset based on
future events, they have been classified as derivative
liabilities.
The
Note also contains other standard adjustment features for
stock splits, recapitalizations and similar occurrences. The
Note contains standard events of default related to payment,
performance of certain covenants and bankruptcy
events.
We
recorded a debt discount of $478,476 based on the estimated
fair value of the derivative liabilities associated with the
warrants and embedded conversion feature which was amortized
using the effective interest method over the term of the
note.
In
November 2010, certain terms of the Note were modified
pursuant to a Settlement Agreement (the "Modified Agreement")
which provides for the modification of the conversion price
formula to equal eighty percent (80%) of the average of the
three lowest closing bid prices of the common stock as
reported by Bloomberg L.P. on the Principal Market for the
twenty (20) trading days preceding the conversion date in
lieu of the ten (10) trading days preceding the conversion
date.
According
to the modified terms, the previous conversion floor price
was replaced with a maximum share limitation under which the
maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued
to the holder of the Note pursuant to a conversion of the
Note, combined with an exercise of the Exchange Warrant (as
defined below), shall not exceed a cap determined by (a)
dividing the sum of (i) the face amount of the Note, plus
(ii) an amount equal to all interest that would accrue under
the Note during its term (assuming no payments of principal
or interest are made prior to the maturity date of the Note),
by a price per share of common stock equal to $0.20 (subject
to equitable adjustment) and (b) then adding the sum
calculated pursuant to the foregoing clause (a) to the
maximum number of warrant shares (as defined in the Exchange
Warrant) that may be acquired by the holder thereof upon
exercise of the Exchange Warrant (regardless of whether such
exercise is a cashless exercise). In addition, the "maximum
ownership percentage" under the Note was increased to
9.99%.
In
addition to the modifications of the note, we agreed to
exchange the original warrant for a new common stock purchase
warrant (the "Exchange Warrant") for the purchase of
2,727,272 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price
of $0.231 per share. The Exchange Warrant provides for
anti-dilution adjustment to the exercise price in the event
of the issuance of securities by the Company below the
exercise price, subject to certain exceptions as set forth in
the Exchange Warrant.
In
addition, the Modified Agreement provided that Gemini deliver
to us $253,794.09 by wire transfer in full payment of the
promissory note, which represents the outstanding principal
balance thereof plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon
less the origination fee due to Gemini under the original
transaction documents less reimbursement of Gemini's legal
expenses. In accordance with the settlement, we delivered to
Gemini 286,483 freely tradable shares of common stock in full
satisfaction of the remaining number of shares of common
stock due under certain conversion notices, for a total of
$75,000, previously delivered by Gemini to the Company. The
Modified Agreement provided for the mutual release of all
claims related to the dispute and the revocation of all prior
notices of default sent by the Company and Gemini to each
other.
In
connection with the modification to the note and the issuance
of the Exchange Warrant, the maximum number of shares
issuable pursuant to the maximum share limitation and the
exercise in full of the Exchange Warrant was
6,357,272.
As
provisions of the Modified Agreement resulted in terms that
were deemed to be substantially different from the original
terms, the exchange of debt instruments was accounted for as
a debt extinguishment and we recorded a loss on
extinguishment of debt in the amount of $963,018 in the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 as shown below:
On
March 21, 2011, we entered into an Extension Agreement (the
"Extension Agreement") with Gemini. The Extension
Agreement provides for, among other things, the extension of
the Maturity Date to October 1, 2011, and an amendment and
restatement of the Note to reflect the revised principal
amount of $740,578, which amount includes accrued interest of
$58,981, the remaining principal balance of $585,000 and a
15% premium to the principal and accrued interest amount in
consideration for the extension. In addition, the Note as
amended provides for a new "share cap formula" such that the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Note shall not exceed a cap determined by (a) dividing
the sum of (i) the revised principal amount of the Note
($740,578), plus (ii) an amount equal to all interest that
would accrue under the Note during its term (assuming no
payments of principal or interest are made after March 21,
2011 but prior to the Maturity Date), by a price per share of
Common Stock equal to $0.16 (subject to adjustment as set
forth in the Note) and (b) then adding the sum calculated
pursuant to the foregoing clause to the maximum aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock issuable under certain
warrants held by Gemini (regardless of whether such exercise
is a cashless exercise).
As
provisions of the Extension Agreement resulted in terms that
were deemed to be substantially different from the original
terms, the exchange of debt instruments was accounted for as
a debt extinguishment and we recorded a loss on
extinguishment of debt in the amount of $47,701 in the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2011 as shown below:
The
following conversions of the February 2010 10% Convertible
Note have taken place during the six months ended September
30, 2011:
On
September 30, 2011, we agreed with Gemini to extend the
expiration date of the Note to January 1,
2012. There was no fee or any other consideration
exchanged in connection with the extension.
At September 30, 2011, interest payable on this Note totaled $24,965.
APRIL
2010 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTE
In
April 2010, we raised $75,000 from the sale to an accredited
investor of a 10% convertible note. The convertible note
matures in October 2011 and is convertible into our common
stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.25 per share prior to
maturity. The investor also received three year warrants to
purchase 300,000 unregistered shares of our common stock at a
price of $0.25 per share.
We
measured the fair value of the warrants and the beneficial
conversion feature of the notes and recorded a 100% discount
against the principal of the notes. We are amortizing this
discount using the effective interest method over the term of
the note.
At
September 30, 2011, the interest payable on this note totaled
$10,810.
JUNE
2010 12% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
June 2010, in connection with the present and past
negotiations with the law firm representing the holders of
the "Amended and Restated Notes," we issued two convertible
notes to that law firm (“June 2010 12% Convertible
Notes”) totaling $64,153 on the same terms as the
Amended and Restated Notes. That amount represented the
amount of their legal fees plus accrued interest. During the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, the holder converted to
common stock one of the convertible notes in the amount of
$42,964.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2011, the holder
converted the remaining principal balance of $21,189 and
accrued interest of $2,598 to shares of our common stock per
the terms of the convertible note.
JULY
2010 6% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
July 2010, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Tonaquint, Inc., a
Utah corporation (the "Investor") whereby we issued and sold,
and the Investor purchased: (i) a Convertible Promissory Note
of the Company in the principal amount of $890,000 (the
"Company Note") and (ii) a Warrant to purchase common stock
of the Company (the "Warrant"). As consideration for the
issuance and sale of the Company Note and Warrant, the
Investor paid cash in the amount of $400,000 and issued two
Secured Trust Deed Notes to us (the "Trust Notes") each in
the principal amount of $200,000. The variance of $90,000
represents fees and expenses paid by us and an original issue
discount which was recorded as deferred offering
costs.
The
Company Note is convertible into shares of the Company's
common stock, at the option of the Investor, at a price per
share equal to (a) the principal and interest due under the
Company Note divided by (b) 80% of the average of the closing
bid price for the three (3) trading days with the lowest
closing bid prices during the twenty (20) trading days
immediately preceding the conversion date (the
“Conversion Price”). In no event shall the
Conversion Price be greater than the "Ceiling Price", which
is $0.30 per share. The principal and interest subject to
conversion under the Note shall be eligible for conversion in
tranches ("Tranches"), as follows: (1) an initial Tranche in
an amount equal to $450,000 and any interest and/or fees
accrued thereon under the terms of the Company Note and the
other Transaction Documents (as defined below and in the
Purchase Agreement), and (2) two additional subsequent
Tranches each in an amount equal to $220,000 and any interest
or fees accrued thereon under the terms of the Company Note
or the other Transaction Documents. The first subsequent
Tranche shall correspond to payment of the first Trust Note
and the second subsequent Tranche shall correspond to payment
of the second Trust Note (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement). The Investor's right to convert any of the
subsequent Tranches is conditioned upon the Investor’s
payment in full of the Trust Notes corresponding to such
subsequent Tranche. Accordingly, principal and
interest under the Company Note may only be converted by the
Investor in proportion to the amounts paid under each of the
Trust Notes. However, up to $450,000 may be
converted at the Investor's option at any time, representing
amounts paid by the Investor on the closing of the
transaction on July 15, 2010 (the "Closing"). The
Company Note bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum. The
maturity date of the Company Note is July 15, 2011. The
Company Note contains "anti-dilution" protection, such that
if the Company issues and sells common stock, or securities
convertible into or exercisable for common stock of the
Company, at a price per share that is less than the
applicable Conversion Price, then the Conversion Price is
adjusted downward to match such lower issuance price.
However, in no event will the Conversion Price based on
anti-dilution adjustments be lower than the "Floor Price"
which is $0.20 per share.
The
number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to the
lender pursuant to a conversion of this Note, combined with
an exercise of the Warrant, shall not exceed a cap determined
by (a) dividing the sum of (i) the face amount of this Note,
plus (ii) an amount equal to all interest that would accrue
under this Note during its term (assuming no payments of
principal or interest are made prior to the Maturity Date),
by a price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.20 (the
Floor Price).
The
Company Note also contains other standard adjustment features
for stock splits, recapitalizations and similar occurrences.
The Company Note contains standard events of default related
to payment, performance of certain covenants and bankruptcy
events. We have granted the Investor a security interest in
the Trust Notes under the terms of the Security Agreement.
The sole collateral for the Company's payment and performance
obligation under the Company Note is the Trust
Notes. The Warrant entitles the Investor to
purchase 3,636,364 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $0.231 per share. The Warrant contains
"anti-dilution" protection, such that if we issue and sell
common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable
for common stock of the Company, at a price per share that is
less than the applicable exercise price, then the price is
adjusted downward to match such lower issuance price. The
Warrant also contains other standard adjustment features for
stock splits, recapitalizations and similar
occurrences.
We
recorded a debt discount of $890,000 based on the estimated
fair value of the derivative liabilities associated with the
warrants and embedded conversion feature which was amortized
using the effective interest method over the term of the
note.
On
June 28, 2011, we entered into a Termination Agreement with
Tonaquint, Inc. under which both parties agreed to terminate
the warrant to prevent continuing dilution of our common
stock and to eliminate confusion or disagreement as to the
number of shares of common stock available for issuance under
the warrant in the future. Accordingly, under the Termination
Agreement we issued 3,599,913 shares of common stock upon the
final exercise of the warrant, whereupon the warrant was
terminated and is of no further force or effect.
The Termination Agreement also provides for a "Common
Stock Sale Limitation" on all of our common stock held by
Tonaquint, Inc. Under the "Common Stock Sale Limitation", the
daily limitation on the number of shares of common stock
which Tonaquint, Inc. may sell into the market on any trading
day is limited to the greater of (i) $5,000 of sales amount,
or (ii) 10% of the Average Daily Volume of our common stock
sold on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board, where the
Average Daily Volume shall mean the average daily volume for
the prior three month period as reported on each trading day
on Yahoo Finance with respect to our common stock. Under the
terms of the Termination Agreement, Tonaquint, Inc. has
waived and released us from any obligation to pay or perform
any fees, penalties, costs, or assessments that were or are
due, or would have become due, under the convertible note,
the warrant and the note purchase agreement. In consideration
of the termination of the warrant, the waiving of all fees,
penalties, the creation of the selling program and other
factors, we agreed to issue an unsecured non-convertible
promissory note (the "New Note") in the principal amount of
$360,185, which provides for annual interest at a rate of 6%,
payable monthly in either cash or our stock, at our option.
The New Note has a maturity date of April 30, 2012.
SEPTEMBER
2010 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
On
September 3, 2010, we entered into a Subscription Agreement
with three accredited investors (the
“Purchasers”) providing for the issuance and
sale of convertible promissory notes and corresponding
warrants in the aggregate principal amount of $1,430,000. The
initial closing under the Subscription Agreement resulted in
the issuance and sale of (i) convertible promissory notes in
the aggregate principal amount of $743,600, (ii) five-year
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,718,000 shares of our
common stock at an exercise price of $0.31125 per share, and
(iii) five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of
3,718,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of
$0.43575 per share. The convertible promissory notes bear
interest compounded monthly at the annual rate of ten percent
(10%) and mature on September 3, 2011. The aggregate gross
cash proceeds were $650,000, the balance of the principal
amount representing a due diligence fee and an original
issuance discount. The convertible promissory notes are
convertible at the option of the holders into shares of our

2011 10% CONVERTIBLE NOTES
In
April 2011, we entered into a Subscription Agreement with two
accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) providing
for the issuance and sale of convertible promissory notes and
corresponding warrants in the aggregate principal amount of
$385,000. The closing under the Subscription Agreement
resulted in the issuance and sale by us of (i) convertible
promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$385,000, (ii) five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate
of 4,004,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise
price of $0.125 per share, and (iii) five-year warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 4,004,000 shares of our common
stock at an exercise price of $0.175 per share. The
convertible promissory notes bear interest compounded monthly
at the annual rate of ten percent (10%) and mature on April
1, 2012. The aggregate gross cash proceeds to us
were $350,000, the balance of the principal amount
representing a due diligence fee and an original issuance
discount. The convertible promissory notes are convertible at
the option of the holders into shares of common stock of the
Registrant at a price per share equal to eighty percent (80%)
of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the
common stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the principal
market on which the common stock trades or is quoted for the

Subject to adjustment as described in the notes, the
conversion price may not be more than $0.20 nor less than
$0.10. There are no registration requirements with respect to

by Purchasers that were acquired from us in September
2010.

$400,400 and interest payable on these notes totaled

stock at $0.125 per share.
