Commentary

This chart shows the composition of the currently-issued and outstanding equity.

All shares are common shares.  In round numbers:

200,000 shares are founder shares.

54,000 shares were issued at $5.50 per share for $300,000 of early capital that was paid in 2014 by the founders

24,000 shares were issued at $10.75 per share for $265,000 that was paid in 2015 by insiders.

Insiders also contributed $300,000 in bridge loans in October 2015.  They were given the option to convert the loans upon completion of the outside financing at the prevailing price.  $265,000 of the bridge loans have been approved for conversion and 8,500 shares are reserved for this.

16,000 were issued at $49.00 per share for $815,000 that was paid by outside investors in late 2015 / early 2016.  The price was admittedly aggressive, and the investors received an assurance that they would be made whole, should up to $1.3 million in subsequent financing be raised at a lower price.

Some insiders with significant business expenses (mainly travel), agreed in 2014 to forgo re-imbursement and, instead convert the moneys that would accumulate into shares at the then-prevailing price of $1.83 per share.   This program will be closed and 31,000 shares issued to retire the expenses.

386,000 shares were issued to contributors for work.  These shares must be earned, and must vest over 4 years.  The company has a claw-back provision to buy-back unvested shares for $1.00 in total.

Contributor work contracts provide for the compensation of work with a mixture of equity and cash.  Some are 100% equity for up to 3 years, others have a sliding scale.  The contracts stipulate that cash will not be paid until the company’s cash flow allows.  The plan indicates that by the time cash flow is sufficient to start cash payments, $2.5 million worth of work will have been delivered.  100,000 shares have been reserved for those who would choose to receive equity at $25.00 per share instead of cash. 

The total of all shares issued, reserved, and outstanding is 821,657.
