At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to provide authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Amendment”). Prior to the adoption of the Amendment, the Company was not authorized to issue any shares of preferred stock. The Board recommended the Amendment to stockholders for approval in order to provide the Company with capital raising and financing flexibility. The Amendment gives the Board the authority to establish, from time to time, classes or series of preferred stock and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any series of preferred stock, including dividend rates and preferences, conversion provisions, voting rights, redemption provisions, liquidation rights and preferences, preemption rights, maturity dates and other matters. The Amendment became effective upon the Company’s filing of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 2, 2014.
Common Stock and Warrants Issued for Services The fair value of any common stock issuances are valued at the closing price on the given day of an issuance, unless the agreement states some other valuation methodology, i.e. VWAP. Fair value of any warrant issuances are valued utilizing the Black-Scholes mode. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The Company determined the fair value of the Binomial Lattice Model and the Black-Scholes Valuation Model to be materially the same. The expected stock price volatility for the Company’s warrants was determined by the historical volatilities for industry peers and used an average of those volatilities. The risk free interest rate was obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods. The contractual terms of the agreement does not provide for and the Company does not expect to declare dividends in the near future. The table below sets forth the information for 2014 common stock and warrant issuances.
