Subscription warrants
In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, on December 7, 2009 the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement for the sale of 61,333 units of securities of the Company aggregating $920,000. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of Company’s common stock exercisable at $.60 per share. The exercise price was subject to a full ratchet reset feature. 16,667 of these warrants were cancelled in 2010. The remaining warrants were adjusted due to a sale of common stock for cash at $3.00 per share, resulting in 446,665 warrants outstanding. The fair value of these warrants granted, were estimated on the date of grant, and recorded as a derivative liability. The derivative was re-measured at December 31, 2010 using their reset value yielding a gain on the change in fair value of $225,579 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and a loss in fair value of $1,182,375 during the period from September 3, 2009 through December 31, 2009, the outstanding liability for the related derivative liability was $636,220 at December 31, 2010.

The derivative for these 100,000 warrants was re-measured at December 31, 2010 yielding a derivative liability of $129,749, resulting in a gain on change in fair value for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $15,589 and a loss in fair value of $1,182,375 during the period from September 3, 2009 through December 31, 2009.
