All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing. Except as required by law, we assume no duty to update or revise our forward-looking statements.
 
ITEM 1.   BUSINESS.
 
General Development
 
LaserLock Technologies, Inc. (the “Company,” “LaserLock,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated in Nevada on November 10, 1999.  Our principal offices are located at 3112 M Street, Washington, DC 20007, and our telephone number is (202) 400-3700.
 
We are a development stage company.
 
Following initial development and commercialization, the Company invested in developing new proprietary color shifting inks that it believed would allow it to penetrate broader markets and result in increased revenues. During the past fourteen years, the Company has refined its technologies and their applications, and now has what it believes to be one of the most cost effective and efficient authentication technologies available. Our most recent technology takes advantage of the new ubiquitous energy efficient fluorescent lighting to change the color of ink, resulting in numerous potential new applications ranging from credit cards to driver’s licenses, passports, stock certificates, clothing labels, currency, ID cards, and tax stamps. The technologies can also be used to protect DVDs, apparel, pharmaceuticals, and virtually any other physical product.
 
The identical compact fluorescent lighting is used in most color photocopiers and color scanners so that any document which incorporates the Company’s technology cannot be copied and/or reproduced on a color copier or color scanner. 
 
We are a security technology company that delivers product and document authentication. We plan to develop and market technologies in a variety of applications in the security fields.
 
We believe that the technologies we own will have applications in various aspects of corporate security - from counterfeit identification to employee or customer monitoring. Potential applications of our technologies are available in different types of products and industries - e.g., gaming, apparel, tobacco, perfume, compact disks, pharmaceuticals, event and transportation tickets, driver’s licenses, insurance cards, passports, computer software, DVDs, and credit cards. We intend to generate sales through licenses of our technology or through direct sales of our technology to end-users.

Overview

We have filed a total of five patent applications relating to our technology, which have all been issued. These patents seek to accomplish non-intrusive document and product authentication in order to reduce losses caused by unpermitted document reproduction or by product counterfeiting. The technologies involve the utilization of invisible or color shifting/changing inks, which are compatible with today’s printing machines. The inks may be used with certain printing systems such as offset, flexographic, silkscreen, gravure, and laser. Based upon the Company’s experience, we believe that the ink technologies may be incorporated into existing manufacturing processes.
 
Anti-Counterfeiting Technologies and Products
 
Recent developments in copying and printing technologies have made it easier to counterfeit a wide variety of documents and products. Currency, lottery tickets, gift certificates, credit cards, event and transportation tickets, casino slot tickets, and travelers’ checks are all susceptible to counterfeiting. We believe that losses from such counterfeiting have increased substantially with improvements in counterfeiting technology. Counterfeiting has long caused losses to manufacturers of brand name products, and we believe that these losses have increased as the counterfeiting of labeling and packaging has become easier.
 
We believe that our document authentication technologies may be useful to businesses desiring to authenticate a wide variety of printed materials and products. Our technologies include (1) a technology utilizing invisible ink that can be revealed by use of laser light for authentication purposes, (2) an inkjet ink technology, which allows invisible codes to be printed, and (3) a color shifting technology that is activated by certain types of lights. All of those technologies are intended to be substantially different than pen systems that are currently in the marketplace. Pen systems also rely on invisible ink that is activated by a special marker. If the item is an original and not an invisible print, then the ink will be activated and show a visible mark as a different color than on an illegitimate copy. We believe that our technologies are superior to the pen system technology because, in the case of its laser and color shifting technologies, it will not result in a permanent mark on the merchandise. Permanent marks generally lead to the disposal of the merchandise or its sale as a “second” rather than best-quality product. In the case of rubbed ink technology, no special tools are required to distinguish the counterfeit. Other possible variations of our laser based technology involve multiple color responses from a common laser, visible marks of one color that turn another color with a second laser, or visible and invisible marks that turn into a multicolored image. These technologies provide users with the ability to authenticate products and detect counterfeit documents. Applications include the authentication of documents having intrinsic value, such as currency, checks, travelers’ checks, gift certificates and event tickets, and the authentication of product labeling and packaging. When applied to product labeling and packaging, our technologies can be used to detect counterfeit products with labels and/or in packaging that do not contain the authenticating marks invisibly printed on the packaging or labels of legitimate products, as well as to combat product diversion (i.e., the sale of legitimate products through unauthorized distribution channels or in unauthorized markets). We believe that our technologies also could be used in a manner that permits manufacturers and distributors to track the movement of products from production to ultimate consumption when coupled with proprietary software.

We have focused on the widespread problem of counterfeiting in the gaming industry. We have incorporated our technology into traditional gaming accessories such as playing cards, casino chips, and dice as well as gaming-based machinery such as slot machines with cashless gaming systems. This is accomplished during the regular manufacturing and printing processes. Our products use ink that is incorporated into dice and casino chips that can be viewed with a laser to reveal the authenticity of the item. These covert authenticating technologies are also intended to be marketed to manufacturers of compact discs (“CDs”) to identify CDs produced by those manufacturers. We believe that this technology can provide CD manufacturers and publishers with a tool to combat the significant losses sustained as a result of illegal pirating and counterfeiting of data, music and videodiscs.
 
Industry Background
 
The U.S. is projected to remain the largest single consumer of security services and products in the world. One of the most important new areas of expansion is in the area of authentication, that is the act of confirming that some object--be it currency, passports, casino chips, credit cards, stock certificates, pharmaceuticals, stamps, identification cards or lottery tickets, to name just a few examples--is real and not a forgery.
 
With the advent of the digital age, including the color copier and other new technologies and templates available on the web, thieves and forgers have been able to make near identical copies of almost any printed item which has resulted in major financial losses to business and, importantly, has compromised security at critical installations.

One particular problem is that criminal and civil penalties for forgery, fraud, and counterfeiting are relatively light, and many of those engaging in such activities are overseas and far from the reach of U.S. law enforcement. Thus, the affected industries have little choice other than to make their products more formidable, often with multiple layers of defense, adopting what is known as multifactor authentication strategies.
 
While some currency and credit cards have introduced holograms, seals, and embedded strips in order to add a level of protection, most such methodologies are expensive and, in some cases, time-consuming in the production process. In other instances, such as when printing cigarette tax stamps or hundreds of millions of pieces used in a popular restaurant chain’s contest game pieces, the authentication process must be extremely inexpensive and easy to use or it will be rejected. There is no commercially fiscal way, for example, that a hologram, costing around five cents a copy, can be introduced to verify tax stamps. More than half the national currencies in the world, moreover, lack even one layer of protection and can easily be counterfeited.

Authentication Industry Overview
 
Currency, passports, ID cards and other high-value documents have historically been subject to counterfeiting and forgery and continue to be today. In the last 15 years, the counterfeiting of goods has increased significantly on a global basis and has become a major threat to brand owners in most industries. Major brands, whether national or multinational, are being systematically attacked by sophisticated criminals and terrorists. Furthermore, counterfeiting and forgery have filtered down to the level of lone criminals due to the availability of digital scanning and copying technologies.
 
Losses by companies and governments from counterfeiting and diversion range from $500 billion to as high as $1 trillion annually. The International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition (IACC) estimates losses of over $600 billion in 2010, up from $150 billion in 2008.
 
According to the 2012 Special 301 report prepared and released by United States Trade Representative Ambassador Mark Kirk, “Another notable trend involves shipping counterfeit products separately from labels and packaging to evade enforcement efforts. For example, infringers in Russia reportedly import unbranded products, package these products with unauthorized packaging materials bearing the right holder’s trademarks, and subsequently export the products to various countries.”
 
The industry is segmented into four general categories:
 
1.
Optical technologies - use of light, i.e. holograms,
2.
Electronic - magnetic strips and smart cards,
3.
Biotechnologies - uses characteristics of biological proteins such as antibodies, enzymes and DNA, and
4.
Chemical technologies - includes photochromic (or light-reactive) and thermochromic (or heat-reactive) inks.
 
We operate in the chemical technologies and security ink sectors of the industry. Products in this industry, when exposed to either heat or light change color, and when exposed again the color reverts to the original. Generally the effect is reversible as often as required. Inks have also been developed that are invisible to the human eye but which can be read by bar-code scanners. These have been used in the fragrance and pharmaceutical industries to authenticate products. Other reactive inks change color when brought into contact with specific substances, for example ink from a felt-tipped pen.
   
Recent developments in printing technologies have made it easier to counterfeit a wide variety of documents. Lottery tickets, gift certificates, event and transportation tickets and travelers’ checks are all susceptible to counterfeiting, and we believe that losses from such counterfeiting have increased substantially due to improvements in technology. Counterfeiting has long caused losses to manufacturers of brand name products, and we believe that these losses have increased as the counterfeiting of labeling and packaging has become easier.
 
In April 2010, the United States Government Accountability Office (“GAO”) issued a report to Congress entitled, “INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Observations on Efforts to Quantify the Economic Effects of Counterfeit and Pirated Goods.” In that report the GAO estimated that the total economic value of intellectual property seizures by Customs and Border Protection during 2004 to 2009 was $1.12 billion. This was only based on imported goods and not goods produced in the United States.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development estimates that the value of counterfeiting is approximately $250 billion per year.  They also concluded that millions of consumers are risking their lives by using unsafe and ineffective counterfeit products unknowingly.

The mislabeling of foodstuffs caused thousands of Chinese babies to become sick in 2008 after drinking milk formula contaminated with melamine, which is normally used in plastics and banned from use in food.  The chemical is used as an additive to watered-down milk in order to appear higher in protein when tested.  This was reported by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

The Opportunity
 
As counterfeiting continues to increase and losses to manufacturers, and others having their intellectual property rights compromised, continue to escalate, we believe that those entities will seek better technologies to minimize their exposure. These technologies, however, must also be cost effective.
 
Our Solution
 
In the area of document and product authentication and serialization, we offer the following products:
 
1. RainbowSecure™
2. LaserXpose™
3. InkJetSecure™
4. SecurDox™
5. SecureLight™ and SecureLight+™
 
RainbowSecure™ Technology. This was the Company’s first technology to be patented. It combines an invisible ink with a proprietary tuned laser to enable counterfeit products to be exposed. It has been widely accepted in the gaming industry where the technology is used by casinos to protect their chips, dice, and playing cards from fraud. The technology also features a unique double layer of security which remains entirely covert at all times and provides licensees with additional protection. RainbowSecure™ is particularly well-suited to closed and controlled environments, such as casinos that want to verify transactions within a specific area, and are not interested in outside public verification. The technology is also appropriate for anti-counterfeit protection of tags and labels in the apparel industry, where it can be applied to a variety of different materials.
 
LaserXpose™ Technology. This is an innovative patented technology which combines overt and covert anti-counterfeiting technology in one printing ink. It offers customers the ability to have two layers of security within a product while not having to disclose the covert feature if desired. It also is easily applied on most commercial printing presses.
 
InkJetSecure™ Technology. This technology involves an innovative method for coating pigments so that they can be used in high speed continuous inkjet printers without clogging the submicron nozzles of the printers. The application for InkJetSecure™ is to invisibly mark and track individual products through the distribution chain where products are often illegally diverted. The technology is utilized in combination with proprietary tracking software.
 
SecurDox. The market for “Security on Demand” printing of documents with SecurDox on a standard desktop inkjet printer is large and growing. The Company’s patent for aqueous ink, which was issued in 2004, enables the printing of selective information invisibly on a desktop bubblejet printer, using a water-based secure inkjet cartridge. The information can then be activated on-demand.

SecureLight™ Technology. Following the development and commercialization of LaserLock, the Company invested in developing new proprietary color shifting inks that could penetrate broader markets and result in far greater revenues. During the past nine years, LaserLock has refined its technologies and their applications, and now has what is believed to be the easiest, most cost effective and efficient authentication technologies available in the world today. Our most recent technology, known as SecureLight™, takes advantage of the new ubiquitous energy efficient fluorescent lighting to change the color of ink, resulting in hundreds of new applications ranging from credit cards to driver’s licenses, passports, stock certificates, clothing labels, currency, ID cards, and tax stamps. The technologies can also be used to protect DVDs, apparel, pharmaceuticals, and virtually any other physical product.

The identical compact fluorescent lighting is used in most color photocopiers and color scanners so that any document which incorporates SecureLight™ ink cannot be copied and/or reproduced on a color copier or color scanner.  In 2013, the Company filed for patent protection for an enhanced version of SecureLight technology, called SecureLight+TM.

Our digital solution is an iOS app that assists with Single Sign On and Username/Password management. It securely stores Username/Password combinations for multiple websites and allows the user to authenticate with a simple color, gesture swipe rather then having to remember which Username/Password is required for every website. The application is available in the Apple Online App Store and support iPod, iPhone and iPad.

The digital services is an enterprise, multi-factor, strong authentication solution that can also provided authenticated attributes like GeoLocation.  It combines 3 independent authentication factors – something you know (for instance a color, gesture swipe), something you have (for instance a smartphone) and something you are (for instance your facial geometry).  It can also determine Geolocation utilizing a number of mechanisms including GPS, cell tower triangulation and IP/WIFI address.  Because the services utilizes biometrics it completely eliminates the possibility that Users might share their authentication credentials. The combination of biometrics and geolocation provides extremely strong transactional evidence, making it nearly impossible for a end-user to refute having been part of a transaction.
 
Our Technology
 
We have attempted to achieve sufficient flexibility in our products and technologies so as to provide cost-effective solutions to a wide variety of counterfeiting problems. We intend to generate revenues primarily by collecting license fees from manufacturers who incorporate our technologies into their manufacturing processes and their products as well as through the sale of inks.
 
Our Intellectual Property
 
Intellectual property is important to our business.  Our current patent portfolio consists of five granted patents (one granted in 2002, two granted in 2004, one granted in 2005 and one granted in 2011). We believe that some of the patents that have been granted may have commercial application in the future but will require additional capital and/or a strategic partner in order to reach the potential markets. All of the patents related to the five inventions are described above.
 
We continue to develop new anti-counterfeiting technologies and to apply for patent protection for these technologies wherever possible.  Since January 2013, the Company has filed for three new patents. When a new product or process is developed, we may seek to preserve the economic benefit of the product or process by applying for a patent in each jurisdiction in which the product or process is likely to be exploited. Generally, for a patent to be granted, the product or process must be new and be inventively different from what has been previously patented or otherwise known anywhere in the world. Patents generally have a life span of 20 years from the date of application depending on the relevant jurisdiction, after which time any person is free to exploit the product or process covered by a patent. A person who is the owner of a patent has, within the jurisdiction in which the patent is granted, the exclusive right to exclude others from practicing the subject matter defined in the patent claims.
 
We intend to extend our patent filings to other countries where doing so is economically reasonable, considering the expense of foreign patent applications and the increasing level of our activity. Currently, we believe that we will be filing for patent protection in Europe, Australia and one or more countries in the Far East and South America. The granting of a patent does not prevent a third party from seeking a judicial determination that the patent is invalid. Such challenges to the validity of a patent are not uncommon and are occasionally successful. There can be no assurance that a challenge will not be filed to one or more of our patents, if granted, and that, if filed, such a challenge will not be successful. The granting of a U.S. patent does not ensure that patents will be granted in other countries where protection is sought. Standards for granting patents vary and there is a possibility that prior art not yet discovered could arise and could prevent the grant of a foreign patent and cast into question the validity of a U.S. patent.
 
In October 2010, the Company filed suit in the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging that a company had infringed on one of the Company’s patents in the manufacture of game pieces. On June 4, 2012 both companies filed a stipulation to dismiss the action without prejudice and enter into settlement negotiations.  Settlement negotiations are ongoing.
 
Research and Development
 
We have been involved in research and development, or R&D, since our inception and intend to continue our R&D activities, funds permitting. We hope to expand our technology into new areas of implementation and to develop unique customer applications.
 
For the period from inception at November 10, 1999 to December 31, 2013 we incurred costs of $1,523,632 on R&D. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we incurred costs of  $655,840 and $5,420, respectively.

Our Revenue Model
 
We believe that a primary reason for our lack of revenue is our lack of funds to create a marketing program that effectively reaches potential customers in the security industry. In developing our most recent marketing approach, we have attempted to achieve sufficient flexibility in our products and technologies so as to provide cost-effective solutions to a wide variety of counterfeiting problems. We intend to generate revenues primarily by collecting license fees from manufacturers who incorporate our technologies into their manufacturing processes and their products as well as through the sale of inks.
 
According to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (the “Bureau”), the color pigment market is estimated to be worth $2.6 billion per year, of which the color-shifting segment is valued at someplace between $55 million and $235 million annually, and this is based on a relatively limited number of products and applications. A more realistic estimate suggests that the color shifting pigment market will be worth several billion dollars a year within ten years, predicated on anticipated new security applications and demand for greater low-cost counterfeiting protection.
 
Currently, the Bureau produces 38.0 million notes per day valued at $545 million (or 9.8 billion notes annually). If the Company were to be part of the printing and security process of the $100 bill (which is the most counterfeited bill) at $ .003 for each piece of currency, then the cost to the Bureau would be approximately $8.6 million annually. If the Company were to provide security for the American currency, at $.003, then the cost to the Bureau would be approximately $29.4 million annually. At a one cent royalty, the cost to the Bureau would be approximately $98.0 million annually.
 
A hologram, by contrast, costs approximately 5 cents, or more than 17 times as much. Similarly, security threads, seals, and other methodologies for protecting currency are all more expensive than color shifting inks. In the U.S. there are more than 650 million credit cards as well as 488 million debit cards, many of which currently have holograms embedded in them. Should Visa and MasterCard use the Company’s product instead of a 5 cent hologram, and a one-cent royalty were obtained, instead of $.003, the cost to Visa and MasterCard would be approximately $11.4 million annually.

Competition
 
The market for protection from counterfeiting, diversion, theft and forgery is a mature 25-year old industry dominated by a number of large, well-established companies, particularly in the area of traditional overt security technologies. This is due to the fact that security printing for currency production, for example, began in Europe over a century ago and has resulted in the establishment of old-line security printers who have branched out into brand and product protection as well. In North America, brand protection products, such as tamper-resistant packaging, security labels, and anti-theft devices are readily available and utilized on a widespread basis. In recent years, however, demand has increased for more sophisticated, overt and covert, security technologies. Competitors can be segregated into the groupings below:
 
 
1.
Security Ink Manufacturers. These are generally well-established companies such as SICPA and Sun Chemical, whose core business is printing inks;
 
 
2.
System Integrators. These companies have often evolved from other sectors in the printing industry, mainly security printing manufacturers, technology providers, or packaging and label manufacturers. These companies offer a range of security solutions, enabling them to provide a complete suite of solutions tailored to the customer’s specific needs and requirements. The companies in this space include 3M, DuPont, Honeywell, and Avery Dennison;
 
 
3.
System Consultancy Groups. These companies offer a range of technologies from several different providers and tailor specific solutions to end-users;
 
 
4.
Traditional Authentication Technology Providers. These purveyors include American Banknote Holographics, and Digimarc, which provide holograms and digital watermarking, respectively;
 
 
5.
Product Diversion Tracking Providers. Next-Generation Technology Providers LLC falls into this group, along with several companies such as Authentix, DNA Technologies, and Identif, which provide on-product and in-product tagging technologies; and
 
 
6.
Traditional Security Printers. Traditional security printers such as Thomas de la Rue and Portals whose core products are printing the world’s currencies.
 
To compete effectively, we expect that we will need to expend significant resources in technology and marketing. Each of our competitors has substantially greater financial, human and other resources than we have. As a result, we may not have sufficient resources to develop and market our services to the market effectively, if at all.
 
Manufacturing
 
We do not have manufacturing facilities. We acquire components from various suppliers, which are manufactured to our specifications and reprocess these components. We intend to subcontract the manufacturing of our ink technology to third-party manufacturers. Applications of our technology are expected to be effected mainly through printing and coating of products with both visible and invisible ink. These inks will be custom manufactured for us by a third party. Because some of the processes that we intend to use in our applications are based on relatively common manufacturing techniques, there is no technical or economic reason for us to invest our own capital in manufacturing facilities at this stage.
 
We have established a quality-control program that includes laboratory analysis of developed technologies. We intend to include as part of this quality control program a specially trained technician on site at third-party production facilities to monitor the manufacturing process when warranted.
 
Government Regulation
 
We are not currently aware of any regulations affecting our products; however, our technology is dependent upon an ink-based product. Therefore, it is possible that our products will be subject to environmental regulations in the future.

2003 and 2013 Stock Option Plans
 
We adopted our 2003 Stock Option Plan as of December 17, 2003 (the “2003 Plan”). Awards were available to be made under the 2003 Plan for up to 18,000,000 shares of our common stock in the form of stock options or deferred stock awards.  Awards were available to be made to our employees, officers or directors as well as our consultants or advisors.  The Plan is administered by our board of directors which has full and final authority to interpret the Plan, select the persons to whom awards may be granted, and determine the amount, vesting and all other terms of any awards. 

During 2013, our Board adopted, and our shareholders approved, a new comprehensive incentive compensation plan (the “2013 Plan”, and together with the 2003 Plan, the “Plans”) which serves as the successor incentive compensation plan to the 2003 Plan, and provides the Company with an omnibus plan to design and structure grants of stock options, stock units, stock awards, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based awards for selected individuals in our employ or service. Our Board believes that the availability of (i) 20,000,000 new shares of our common stock, plus (ii) the number of shares of our common stock subject to outstanding grants under the 2003 Plan as of the date of the 2013 Annual Meeting, plus (iii) the number of shares of our common stock remaining available for issuance under the 2003 Plan but not subject to previously exercised, vested or paid grants, for issuance under the 2013 Plan, as sufficient to meet the current needs of the Company.
 
All stock options granted under the Plans are exercisable for a period of up to ten years from the date of grant, are subject to vesting as determined by the Board upon grant, and have an exercise price equal to not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant (except for incentive stock options granted to 10% stockholders, which are required to have an exercise price of not less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted).  Unless otherwise determined by the Board, awards may not be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  The Board has discretion to determine the effect on any award granted under the Plans of the death, disability, retirement, resignation, termination or other change in employment or other status of any participant in the Plans.
 
Upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control”, as defined in the Plans, the Board may take any number of actions.  These actions include, providing for all options outstanding under the Plans to be assumed by the acquiring corporation or to become immediately vested and exercisable in full.  As of the date of this report, we have issued options under the Plans to purchase 15,425,996 shares of common stock.

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation and other parts of this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  All forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.  Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. The following should be read in conjunction with our annual financial statements contained elsewhere in this report.
 
Overview
 
We were incorporated in Nevada in November 1999. We are a technology development company that delivers product and document authentication and security. We plan to develop and market technologies in a variety of applications in the security fields.
 
We believe that the technologies we own will enable businesses to reconstruct their overall approaches to corporate security - from counterfeit identification to employee or customer monitoring. Potential applications of our technologies are available in different types of products and industries - e.g., gaming, apparel, tobacco, perfume, compact disks, pharmaceuticals, event and transportation tickets, driver’s licenses, insurance cards, passports, computer software, DVDs, and credit cards. We intend to generate sales through licenses of our technology or through direct sales of our technology to end-users.
 
We have filed a total of five patent applications relating to our technology, which have all been issued. These patents seek to accomplish non-intrusive document and product authentication in order to reduce losses caused by unpermitted document reproduction or by product counterfeiting. The technologies involve the utilization of invisible or color shifting/changing inks, which are compatible with today’s printing machines. The inks may be used with certain printing systems such as offset, flexographic, silkscreen, gravure, and laser. Based upon the Company’s experience, we believe that the ink technologies may be incorporated into existing manufacturing processes. We believe that some of our patents may have non-security applications, and we are attempting to commercialize these opportunities.
 
Strategic Outlook
 
We believe that the security and authentication industries will continue to grow over time, especially as counterfeiting becomes easier with advances in technology. Within the market, we intend to provide our products to government bodies and merchants in the consumer products, gaming and financial services industries.
 
Sustained spending on technology, our ability to raise additional financing, and the continued growth of the security and authentication markets are all external conditions that may affect our ability to execute our business plan. In addition, certain potential customers may view our small size and limited financial resources as a negative even if they prefer our products to those of our competitors.
 
Our primary strategic objective over the next 12-24 months is to successfully market our products and generate revenue that is sufficient to cover our operating expenses and support additional growth over the next several years. We plan to achieve this objective through a targeted marketing program. As we grow, we intend to hire professionals to develop new products and market our products.
 
12
 

 

 
We believe that our near-term success will depend particularly on our ability to develop customer awareness and confidence in our products. Since we have limited capital resources, we will need to closely manage our expenses and conserve our cash by continually monitoring any increase in expenses and reducing or eliminating unnecessary expenditures. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies in the development stage, particularly given that we operate in rapidly evolving markets, that we have limited financial resources, and face an uncertain economic environment. We may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.
 
Results of Operations
 
Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The following information should be considered together with our financial statements for such periods and the accompanying notes thereto.
 
Revenue/Net Loss
 
We are a development stage company and have not generated significant revenue since our inception.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we generated revenues of $3,140 and $17,029, respectively.  Our net loss increased $15,191,811 to $16,390,868 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $1,199,057 for the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily as a result of fair value adjustments related to warrant liability and option grants.
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses were $762,668 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $129,329 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $633,339.  The increase is attributable to increases in depreciation, insurance, office expenses, payroll taxes and rent.  This increase primarily resulted from the opening of an office in Washington D.C.

Legal and Accounting
 
Legal and accounting fees increased $199,174 to $475,948 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $276,774 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The increase in legal and accounting fees between the periods was primarily related to patent costs and costs associated with the Form S-1 Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in August 2013 and associated matters.
 
Payroll Expenses

Payroll expenses increased to $9,485,339 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $612,721 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $8,872,618.  A portion of the increase relates to the hiring of the Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology Officer and a Chief Financial Officer of the Company.  The majority of  the increase was the expense of the fair market value of options issued to the Board, the Vice Chairman, and the officers of the Company aggregating approximately $8.5 million.

Research and Development
 
Research and development expenses increased $650,420 to $655,840 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $5,420 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The increase in research and development expenses was due to the allocation of resources to the research and development effort.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $261,804 as compared to $66,499 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $195,305.  The expenses consisted largely of expenses for marketing the new technology associated with the patents and the new patent applications, as well as a more active marketing program in 2013.
 
13
 

 

 
Interest Expense
 
During the year ended December 31, 2013, we incurred interest expense of $127,825, as compared to $277,371 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $149,446.  The decrease in interest expense relates to the conversion of notes payable into common stock in 2013 and the negotiation of a lower interest rate on certain debt in June 2011.
 
Gain (Loss) on Extinguishment of Debt
 
During the year ended December 31, 2012, we received a benefit of $156,110 in debt forgiveness, as compared to a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,221,875 for the year ended December 31, 2013.  This was the result of management’s negotiation with vendors and debt holders to forgive amounts due and the forgiveness of accrued salary by the Company’s Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
 
Change in Fair Value of Warrants

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred a change in the fair value of warrants of $604,209 as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The change resulted from the re-valuation of warrants associated with the Investment Agreement entered into on December 31, 2012 and the Subscription Agreement entered into on January 31, 2013.  The value of the warrant liability has decreased because the stock price has decreased.

Change in Fair Value Embedded Derivative Liability

Change in fair value of embedded derivative liability increased $200,000 at December 31, 2013 resulting in an additional expense.  The change in the liability was attributed to change in the fair value of the Company’s stock price.

Fair Value of Warrants in Excess of Consideration for Convertible Preferred Stock

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred a change in the fair value of warrants that were issued in excess of consideration for convertible preferred stock of $2,995,791.  The change resulted from the valuation of warrants associated with the Subscription Agreement entered into on January 31, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, we have focused on developing and implementing our business plan.   Our business plans are dependent on our ability to raise capital through private placements of our common stock and/or preferred stock, through the possible exercise of outstanding options and warrants, through debt financing and/or through future public offering of our securities. There is no assurance that we will raise sufficient capital in order to meet our goals of implementing a sales and marketing effort to introduce the products.  We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to sustain our operations during the next twelve months, however we may need to raise additional funds in the future.  We intend to raise such financing through private placements and/or the sale of debt and equity securities.  The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to our existing shareholders.  If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms favorable to us, we may be unable to execute upon our business plan or pay our costs and expenses as they are incurred, which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Even if we are successful in raising sufficient capital, in order to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when our revenues reach a level that sustains our business operations. While it is impossible to predict the amount of revenues, if any, that we may receive from our products, we presently believe, based solely on our internal projections, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our planned business operations if the products are marketed effectively in accordance with our plans.  There can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient proceeds, or any proceeds, for us to implement fully our proposed business plan.  Moreover there can be no assurance that even if our products are marketed effectively, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our operations.  In either situation, we may not be able to continue our operations and our business might fail.

As of March 14, 2014 we had cash resources of approximately $800,000.  
 
Net cash used in operating activities increased $2,421,709 to $2,788,769 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $367,060 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The increase in net cash used in operating activities is mainly related to the expansion of operations including increased product development, legal expenses, hiring employees, increased marketing efforts, increased research and development efforts and opening an office in Washington, D.C.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $32,527 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $9,025 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $23,502.  The increase in cash used is attributable to patent costs associated with the five patents and furniture and computer equipment purchases for the DC office.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $2,203,943 to $1,112,919 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $3,316,862 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The cash provided consisted primarily of proceeds from the issuance of equity securities and proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.  The issuance of equity securities was attributable to the agreements with one investor that were entered into on December 31, 2012, discussed below.

As we have not realized significant revenues since our inception, we have financed our operations through public and private offerings of debt and equity securities.  We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution.  The following sets forth our primary sources of capital during the previous two years.

The Company is in the development stage. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s operational resources were used primarily to fund general and administrative expenses to continue operations and to develop a sales and marketing program.

The following agreements were executed on December 31, 2012 and provided the Company with $2 million in funding.

  (c)

In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Company entered into a Patent and Technology License Agreement with VerifyMe, pursuant to which VerifyMe granted the Company exclusive and non-exclusive licenses relative to a specific list of patents in return for the following:
 
 
(a)
Payment 1, payable upon execution of the agreement on December 31, 2012: The sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), to be paid by issuing (i) a number of shares of common stock, of the Company equal to (x) $100,000 divided by (y) $0.045 (2,222,222 shares) and (ii) cashless exercise warrants to purchase an equal number of shares exercisable at a price of Ten Cents ($0.10) per share with a term of five (5) years.
     
 
(b)
Payment 2, payable on January 1, 2014: The sum of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000), to be paid by issuing (i) a number of shares equal to (x) $400,000 divided by (y) a price which equals a 10% discount to market and (ii) cashless exercise warrants to purchase an equal number of shares exercisable at a price of Ten Cents ($0.10) per share with a term of five (5) years.

Asset Purchase Agreement

In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with VerifyMe, pursuant to which the Company purchased trademark rights, software and a domain name at a purchase price of $100,000 to be paid by issuing shares equal to $100,000/0.045 (2,222,222 shares) and cashless exercise warrants to purchase an equal number of shares at an exercise price of ten cents per share with a term of five years.
 
 The warrants associated with these Agreements are subject to anti-dilution adjustments outlined in the Agreements.  In accordance with ASC 815, the warrants were classified as a liability in the total amount of $2.4 million at December 31, 2012.  In addition, the warrants must be valued every reporting period and adjusted to market with the increase or decrease being adjusted through earnings.

The following agreement was executed on January 31, 2013 and provided the Company with $1 million in funding:

Subscription Agreement

VerifyMe subscribed to purchase 33,333,333 shares of the Company’s preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 33,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock for $1 million at an exercise price of $0.12.  This agreement was executed on January 31, 2013.
 
At any time within two years after January 31, 2013, the subscriber has the right, but not the obligation to require the Company to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the capital stock of the Company and warrants exercisable for capital stock of the Company held by subscriber in exchange for the price originally paid by the subscriber therefor upon the occurrence of any of the following events:(i) the consummation of any bona fide business acquisition, (ii) the incurring of any indebtedness by the Company in an amount in excess of $2 million, (iii) the issuance or sale of any security having a preference on liquidation senior to common stock, or (iv) the sale by the Company of capital stock or warrants exercisable for its capital stock at a price below $0.03 per share.

 
In accordance with ASC 480 and 815, the Preferred Stock has been classified as permanent equity and has been valued at $1 million.

The conversion feature of the Preferred Stock is an embedded derivative, which is classified as a liability in accordance with ASC 815 and was valued in accordance with ASC 470 as a beneficial conversion feature at a fair market value of $1 million at January 31, 2013.  This was classified as an embedded derivative liability and a discount to Preferred Stock.  Because the Preferred Stock can be converted at any time, the full amount was accreted and classified as a reduction to the discount on Preferred Stock and a deemed dividend distribution in the full amount of $1 million.

At December 31, 2013, the fair value of the embedded derivative (beneficial conversion feature) was evaluated based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price as compared to the Preferred A conversion price.  The fair value of the embedded derivative at December 31, 2013 was $800,000.

The warrants associated with the Preferred Stock were also classified as a liability and valued at a fair value of $2,995,791 at January 31, 2013.  Because this amount was entirely in excess of the transaction price, this amount was recorded as a charge to expenses of $2,995,791.

In August 2013, VerifyMe elected to convert in a cashless transaction an equal number of Preferred A stock valued at $366,667 to 12,222,222 shares of common stock.   
 
During the second quarter of 2012, the Company received $200,000 for a 10% unsecured note payable, due April 27, 2013.  In December 2012, this note payable and accrued interest of $9,167 was converted into 4,703,711 shares of the Company’s common stock.

In October 2012, the Company commenced private placements consisting of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.  The shares and warrants were sold in units with each unit comprised of one share and one warrant at a purchase price of $0.045 and $0.05 per unit.  As of December 31, 2012, the Company sold 21,888,889 units that raised $1,060,000 for the Company.
 
17
 

 


On November 13, 2012, an employee and consultant exercised options to purchase in the aggregate 10,490,996 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $.00125 per share that raised $13,114 for the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of December 31, 2013, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.  As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of these policies is included in note 1 of the notes to our financial statements included elsewhere herein. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows and which require the application of significant judgment by management.

Stock-based Compensation
 
We account for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718,  Compensation—Stock Compensation   (“ASC 718”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. We estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method.
 
We account for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees   (“ASC 505-50”). Under ASC 505-50, we determine the fair value of the warrants or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
 
All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Any stock options issued to non-employees are recorded as an expense and additional paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity over the applicable service periods using variable accounting through the vesting dates based on the fair value of the options at the end of each period.

Revenue Recognition
 
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (Codified in FASB ASC 605), we recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods and acceptance occurs, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectibility of the sales revenues is reasonably assured. Subject to these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from product sales, consisting mainly of pigments and penlights, upon shipment to the customer.  Royalty revenue is recognized upon receipt of notification from a customer that the Company’s product has been used in the customer’s production process.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure (i) that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
19
 

 


Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 using criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued (1992) by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which permits us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  These changes have strengthened our internal controls.

Committees
 
Our board of directors has created a separately-designated audit committee, governance committee, compensation committee, and an investment committee.  As of the date of this annual report, we have eight full-time employees and have not generated significant revenue to date.  In light of the foregoing, our Board concluded that the benefits of retaining an individual who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, would be outweighed by the costs of retaining such a person.  As a result, no member of our Board is an “audit committee financial expert.”

We have adopted a code of ethics applicable to our executives, as defined by applicable rules of the SEC.  
 
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires that our officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of our common stock with the SEC.  They are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file with the SEC.  Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from such persons that no reports were required for those persons, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements were satisfied in a timely fashion during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Board of Directors
LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and its Subsidiary (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from November 10, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and its Subsidiary as of December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 and for each of the years in the four-year period ended December 31, 2011. Such statements are included in the cumulative since inception to December 31, 2013 totals of the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts for each of the years in the four-year period ended December 31, 2011, included in the cumulative totals, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and its Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended and for the period November 10, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations during the development stage. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of the Business
LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) is a development stage enterprise incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 10, 1999. LaserLock Technologies, Inc., seeks to provide state-of-the-art authentication solutions to governments, health care providers, high-end retailers and the gaming industry. LaserLock Technologies, Inc. is based in Washington, D.C. and is publically traded on the OTC Market under the ticker symbol “LLTI”. The Company markets security technology to protect governments, health care providers, high-end retail goods, the gaming industry and branded products from counterfeiting.

Principle of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LaserLock Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, LL Security Products, Inc. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Comprehensive Income
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 220 in reporting comprehensive income.  Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.  Since the Company has no items of other comprehensive income (loss), comprehensive income (loss) is equal to net income (loss).
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and notes payable.  The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of their short maturities. The Company believes the carrying amount of its notes payable and convertible debt approximates its fair value based on rates and other terms currently available to the Company for similar debt instruments.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and certificates of deposit and commercial paper with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash or cash equivalents.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk Involving Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held at two financial institutions. At times, the Company’s deposits may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) coverage limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses from maintaining cash accounts in excess of federally insured limits.
 
Inventory
Inventory principally consists of penlights and pigments and is stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, principally five to seven years. Maintenance and repairs of property are charged to operations, and major improvements are capitalized. Upon retirement, sale, or other disposition of property and equipment, the costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in operations.

Patents and Trademark
The Company has five issued patents for anti-counterfeiting technology and purchased a trademark. Costs associated with the registration and legal defense of the patents have been capitalized and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the patents which were determined to be 17 years.
 
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets are measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset, undiscounted and without interest or independent appraisals. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets.
 
Deferred Financing Costs
Costs incurred in securing long-term debt are deferred and amortized, as a charge to interest expense, over the term of the related debt. In the case of long-term debt modifications, the Company follows the guidance provided by ASC 470-50 “Debt – Modification and Extinguishments.”
 
Convertible Notes Payable
Convertible notes payable, for which the embedded conversion feature does not qualify for derivative treatment, are evaluated to determine if the effective or actual rate of conversion per the terms of the convertible note agreement is below market value. In these instances, the Company accounts for the value of the beneficial conversion feature (BCF) as a debt discount, which is then accreted to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method.
 
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, Revenue Recognition (Codified in FASB ASC 605), the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods and acceptance occurs, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability of the revenue is reasonably assured. Subject to these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from product sales, consisting mainly of pigments and penlights, upon shipment to the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized upon receipt of notification from a customer that the Company’s product has been used in the customer’s production process.
 
Income Taxes
The Company follows FASB ASC 740 when accounting for income taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.  Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.  Tax years from 2009 through 2012 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Stock-based Payments
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718,  Compensation—Stock Compensation   (“ASC 718”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method.
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). Under ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the warrants or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
 
All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Any stock options issued to non-employees are recorded as an expense and additional paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity over the applicable service periods.
 
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were approximately $53,979 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and are included in sales and marketing expenses.
 
Research and  Development Costs
In accordance with FASB ASC 730, research and development costs are expensed when incurred.
 
Loss Per Share
The Company follows FASB ASC 260 when reporting Earnings Per Share resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share.  Because the Company reported a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, common stock equivalents, including stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and dilutive loss per share were the same.
 
Segment Information
The Company is organized and operates as one operating segment wherein the Company’s patented technologies are utilized to address counterfeiting issues. In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company.  Since the Company operates in one segment and provides one group of similar products, all financial segment and product line information required by ASC 280 can be found in the consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
As of December 31, 2013 and for the period then ended there were no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2013-11, Presentation of Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. The amendments in this update provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists, in order to eliminate the diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in such instances. This guidance generally requires that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward.
 
-13-
 

 

 
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

However, to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. ASU 2013-11 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Retrospective application is permitted.

The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2013-11 and plans to comply with all applicable provisions of this ASU no later than the first quarter of 2014.
 
NOTE 2 – MANAGEMENT PLANS
 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations during the development stage. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company believes that its existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain operations during the next twelve months. The Company currently needs to generate revenue in order to sustain its operations. In the event that the Company cannot generate sufficient revenue to sustain its operations, the Company will need to reduce expenses or obtain financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company may be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which could have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

If sufficient revenues are not generated to sustain operations or additional funding cannot be obtained in the short term, the Company will need to reduce monthly expenditures to a level that will enable the Company to continue until such funds can be obtained.

 

The Company is in the development stage at December 31, 2013. Successful completion of the Company’s development program, and the attainment of profitable operations are dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities and achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional equity investment or achieve an adequate sales level.

Depreciation of property and equipment was $68,839 and $20, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

NOTE 4 – PATENTS AND TRADEMARK
 
The Company has five issued patents for anti-counterfeiting technology. Accordingly, costs associated with the registration of these patents and legal defense have been capitalized and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the patents (17 years). During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company capitalized patent costs of $21,954 and $6,665, respectively.  Amortization expense for patents was $13,091 and $13,451 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Future estimated annual amortization over the next five years is approximately $13,000 per year for the years ended December 31, 2014 through 2018.

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company follows FASB ASC 740-10-10 whereby an entity recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences or events that have been previously recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities is based on provisions of enacted tax law. The effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.

At December 31, 2013 the Company has a net operating loss (“NOL”) that approximates $12.5 million. Consequently, the Company may have NOL carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes, which would begin to expire in 2019. Due to changes in ownership, a portion of the NOL carryforward may be subject to certain annual limitations imposed under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Deferred tax assets would arise from the recognition of anticipated utilization of these net operating losses to offset future taxable income.

Management has determined that the realization of the net deferred tax asset is not assured and has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits.

The Company follows FASB ASC 740-10, which provides guidance for the recognition and measurement of certain tax positions in an enterprise’s financial statements. Recognition involves a determination whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination with the presumption that the tax position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information.
 
The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. There were no changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties during 2013 and 2012 related to unrecognized tax benefits.

NOTE 6 - SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
 
In February 2006, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $800,000 principal amount of 10% senior secured convertible promissory notes due twelve months from the date of issue to certain Company shareholders and other accredited investors. As of December 31, 2006, the Company completed this private placement by selling all notes payable totaling $800,000. The notes are secured by a first priority lien on all of the tangible and intangible personal property of the Company. In May 2007, the due date of these notes was extended to August 2008 and the interest rate increased to 12% per annum during the extension period.  In June 2011, the interest rate on all of the notes was reset to 10% and $596,500 of the notes and accrued interest was extended until September 15, 2015. During the fourth quarter of 2012 the remaining $178,749 of unextended notes and the associated accrued interest were extended to September 30, 2015. In June 2013, $225,000 of these notes payable plus accrued interest of $181,125 were converted into 7.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which was valued at $1,628,000. The excess of the fair value of the Company’s common stock over the value of the notes payable and accrued interest was recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50.

During the fourth quarter of 2013, $220,000 of senior convertible notes plus accrued interest of $395,000, were converted into 7,900,000 shares of common stock.  Since this transaction was with related parties, the conversion was treated as a capital transaction in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50-40-3.

As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding principal balance on these notes was $330,249 and $775,249, respectively. Accrued interest at December 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 amounted to $300,677 and $600,091, respectively.
 
Purchasers of the notes were issued 8,000,000 10-year warrants exercisable into the Company’s shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants were valued at $392,376 and recorded as a debt discount on the notes payable. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 169% and 284%, risk-free interest rate between 3.6% and 4.5% and expected warrant life of ten years. The deferred finance charges were amortized over one year, which was the original term of the notes. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had received $80,000 for the exercise of all 8,000,000 of the warrants.
 
In addition, if an equity financing with total proceeds of more than $5,000,000 occurs while any notes are outstanding, holders of notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the notes into shares at a discount of 30% of the price per share in the qualified financing. Since the embedded conversion feature is contingent upon the occurrence of the qualified financing, the value of the contingent conversion feature, if beneficial, will be recognized if the triggering event occurs and the contingency is resolved.
 
NOTE 7 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
 
During 2007, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $400,000 principal amount of 10% Convertible Promissory Notes originally due in August 2008 (the “Notes”). The Company raised $375,000 under this private placement in 2007 and the remaining $25,000 was raised in 2008. Previously $260,000 of the Notes were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock.  Holders of Notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the Notes into shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder at the initial conversion price of $0.005333 per share. It is the intention, however, that the option holder will convert the Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Notes are unsecured.
 
In accordance with ASC 470, a beneficial conversion feature of $375,000 and $25,000 was required to be recorded in 2007 and 2008, respectively, since the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of issuance ($0.016 per share) was greater than the conversion price of $0.005333 per share. The value of the beneficial conversion feature was recorded to additional paid-in capital with the offset to discount on notes payable. The debt discount was accreted to interest expense over the one-year original term of the notes. 
 
In August 2009, noteholders exercised their option to convert $260,000 of the notes payable plus accrued interest into 48,750,000 shares of common stock. The noteholder of the remaining $140,000 under this convertible note issue agreed to extend the maturity date of these notes to September 30, 2015 at an interest rate of 10% per annum. Additionally, the noteholder agreed in writing to suspend its right to convert its note until such as the Company’s authorized shares have been increased. Remaining shares to be potentially issued under this convertible note issue is 26,250,000.

On March 19, 2013, the investor holding $140,000 of convertible notes transferred $14,000 of the $140,000 convertible notes to the Vice Chairman of the Company. Also on March 19, 2013, the investor agreed to convert $28,000 of the investor’s remaining $126,000 of convertible notes into 5,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On March 19, 2013, the Vice Chairman of the Company agreed to convert $14,000 of convertible notes into 2,625,000 of the Company’s common stock.

During the fourth quarter of 2013, the remaining $98,000 of convertible notes plus accrued interest of $87,150 were converted into 12,375,000 shares of common stock.  Since this conversion was with a related party it was treated as a capital transaction in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50-40-3.
 
NOTE 8 - NOTES PAYABLE
 
During the fourth quarter of 2013, all of the $561,000 of unsecured notes payable, less $9,914 of unamortized discount, plus accrued interest of $83,715 was converted into 4,473,333 shares of common stock plus a cash repayment of $150,000.  Since this conversion was with a related party it was treated as a capital transaction in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50-40-3.
 
Unsecured Notes Payable

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company received $200,000 for a 10% unsecured note payable, due April 27, 2013.  In December 2012, this note payable and accrued interest of $9,167 was converted into 4,703,711 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Private Placement of 8% Series A Notes Payable
In August 2009, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $300,000 consisting of up to 6 units. Each unit consists of a $50,000, 8% Series A Note Payable, due September 30, 2011, and a non-detachable warrant to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2009, the Company sold 4 units, issued $200,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued 8,000,000 warrants, and raised $180,000, net of commission of $20,000. In January 2010, the Company sold 0.5 units, issued $25,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued 1,000,000 warrants, and raised $17,500 net of commissions of $7,500. The commissions were treated as deferred finance charges and fully expensed over the term of notes payable.

The 8,000,000 warrants in 2009 were valued at $15,450, fair value, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair-value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of between 30.9% and 34.5%, risk free interest rate between .95% and 1.06% and warrant life of approximately 2 years. The 1,000,000 warrants in 2010 were valued at $20,143, fair value, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair-value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 28.6 %, risk free interest rate of .84% and warrant life of approximately 2 years.

In June 2011, the maturity date on the $150,000 of the 8% Series A Notes Payable and the term on the associated 6,000,000 warrants were extended to September 30, 2015. As a result, the warrants were revalued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the incremental fair-value of the warrants of $21,275, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 60%, risk free interest rate of 1.52% and warrant life of approximately 1.25 years. As part of the debt extension, the lender holding the 6,000,000 warrants agreed in writing to suspend its right to exercise these warrants until such time that the Company’s authorized shares have been increased.  The authorized shares of the Company’s common stock were increased on May 23, 2013 from 425,000,000 to 675,000,000.

NOTE 8 - NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
 
The relative fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes Payable have been treated as a debt discount with an offsetting credit to additional paid-in capital. The debt discount related to the warrant issuances is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. When the warrants were revalued the incremental amount of $21,275 was also treated as additional debt discount and is being accreted over the new term of the 8% Series A Notes Payable.  As of December 31, 2012 the unaccreted debt discount related to warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes payable was $13,632.

During the third quarter of 2011, $25,000 plus accrued interest of the 8% Series A Notes Payable were repaid and 3,000,000 of the associated warrants expired unexercised.

During the fourth quarter of 2013, the remaining series A notes payable of $150,000 was reduced by $60,000 for the exercise of 6,000,000 warrants into 6,000,000 shares of common stock.  The balance of $90,000 plus accrued interest of $49,000 was converted into 1,226,363 shares of common stock.    Since this conversion was with a related party it was treated as a capital transaction in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50-40-3.

Private Placement of 25% Notes Payable
In 2010, the Company issued $400,000 in notes payable in order to finance a patent infringement lawsuit (see Note 16 - Contingencies to these consolidated financial statements). The notes payable accrue interest at 25% per annum and mature upon the earlier of September 1, 2013 or the date on which the Company receives net proceeds from the patent infringement claim. In addition to the base interest of 25% per annum, the lenders are entitled to Bonus Interest equal to the following:
 
 
a.
First monies realized by the Company from its share of the net proceeds of the lawsuit shall be allocated and paid to the Lender until the principal and base interest accruing has been fully paid.
 
b.
The next monies from the net proceeds of the litigation settlement will be paid to the Company to reimburse for out-of-pocket legal costs related to the lawsuit.
 
c.
The next $825,000 of proceeds will be split 50%/50% between the Company and the Lenders.
 
d.
The next $1,000,000 realized by the Company shall be allocated 90% to the Company and 10% to the Lenders.
 
e.
The next $1,000,000 realized by Company shall be allocated 85% to Company and 15% to Lenders.
 
f.
All remaining proceeds realized by Company shall be allocated 80% to Company and 20% to Lenders.
 
The Lenders have a security interest in the Company’s patent infringement claim in which the Lender has the right to the net proceeds of this lawsuit to satisfy outstanding principal and interest under the notes.
 
As part of the private placement of the 25% notes payable, the Company incurred debt placement fees of $34,500 in 2010. These debt placement fees have been treated as deferred finance charges and were being amortized to interest expense over two years.  The remainder of amortization $13,625 was recorded the years ended December 31, 2012.

In December 2012, 250,000 of these notes payable and accrued interest of $122,397 were converted into 8,219,911 shares of the Company’s common stock. In March 2013, the remaining $150,000 of the notes payable and accrued interest of $70,000 were converted into 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Accrued interest of $13,895 was paid in cash.

NOTE 9 – WARRANT LIABILITY

On December 31, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement, a Technology and Services Agreement, a Technology and Services Agreement with Zaah Technologies, Inc. (“Zaah”)., a Patent and Technology License Agreement, and an Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively the “Agreements”). Included in these Agreements were Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
The warrants associated with these Agreements are subject to anti-dilution adjustments outlined in the Agreements. In accordance with FASB ASC 815, the warrants were classified as a liability in the total amount of $2.4 million at December 31, 2012. In addition, the warrants must be valued every reporting period and adjusted to market with the increase or decrease being adjusted through earnings. As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of the warrant liability was $3.7 million.

NOTE 10 – CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

Subscription Agreement

The Company entered into a Subscription Agreement with VerifyMe, Inc. (“VerifyMe”) on January 31, 2013 (the “Subscription Agreement”). Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement VerifyMe subscribed to purchase 33,333,333 shares of the Company’s preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 33,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock for $1 million at an exercise price of $0.12.

At any time within two years after January 31, 2013, the subscriber has the right, but not the obligation to require the Company to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the capital stock of the Company and warrants exercisable for capital stock of the Company held by subscriber in exchange for the price originally paid by the subscriber therefore upon the occurrence of any of the following events:(i) the consummation of any bona fide business acquisition, (ii) the incurring of any indebtedness by the Company in an amount in excess of $2 million, (iii) the issuance or sale of any security having a preference on liquidation senior to common stock, or (iv) the sale by the Company of capital stock or warrants exercisable for its capital stock at a price below $0.03 per share.

In accordance with FASB ASC 480 and 815, the Preferred Stock has been classified as permanent equity and was valued at $1 million at January 31, 2013.

The conversion feature of the Preferred Stock is an embedded derivative, which is classified as a liability in accordance with FASB ASC 815 and was valued in accordance with FASB ASC 470 as a beneficial conversion feature at a fair value of $1 million at January 31, 2013 and $800,000 at December 31, 2013. This was classified as an embedded derivative liability and a discount to Preferred Stock. Because the Preferred Stock can be converted at any time, the full amount of the original fair value was accreted and classified as a reduction to the discount on Preferred Stock and a deemed dividend distribution in the full amount of $1 million.

Because the Preferred Stock can be converted at any time, the embedded derivative is classified as a current liability at December 31, 2013.

The warrants associated with the Preferred Stock were also classified as a liability since they are subject to anti-dilutive adjustments outlined in the warrant agreement and valued at a fair market of $2,995,791 at January 31, 2013. Because this amount was entirely in excess of the transaction price, this amount was recorded as a charge to expenses of $2,995,791. In addition, the warrants must be valued every reporting period and adjusted to market with the increase or decrease being adjusted through earnings. As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of the warrants was $2,300,000.

The Convertible Preferred Stock has a preference in liquidation that the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock are to be paid out of assets available for distribution prior to holders of common stock. The Convertible Preferred Stockholders may cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock can be converted. In addition, the Convertible Preferred Stockholders are to be paid dividends, based on the number of Convertible Preferred shares as if the shares had been converted to common shares, prior to the common stockholders receiving a dividend.

The conversion price of the Preferred A shares is currently $0.03 per share. There are no arrearages on cumulative dividends.

In August 2013, VerifyMe elected to convert in a cashless transaction an equal number of Preferred A stock valued at $366,667 to 12,222,222 shares of common stock.

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative Liabilities

For purposes of determining whether certain instruments are derivatives for accounting treatment, the Company follows the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock.  The standard applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.
 
Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows:

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

As of December 31, 2013, the beneficial conversion feature of the preferred stock is treated as an embedded derivative liability and changes in the fair value were recognized in earnings.  The preferred stock shares are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, which did trade in an active securities market, therefore the embedded derivative liability was valued using the following market based inputs:
   
Closing trade price of Common Stock
$0.07
Series A Preferred Stock Conversion Price
$0.03
Intrinsic value of conversion option per share
$0.04
 
The Company has no assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s outstanding warrants are treated as derivative liabilities and changes in the fair value were recognized in earnings.  These common stock purchase warrants did not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company estimated the fair value of these warrants using Black-Scholes and the following assumptions:
 
   
December 31, 2013
Annual Dividend Yield
 
0.0%
Expected Life (Years)
 
4.00 – 4.08
Risk-Free Interest Rate
 
1.39%
Expected Volatility
 
267.3%
 
Expected volatility was based primarily on historical volatility. Historical volatility was computed using daily pricing observations for recent periods. The Company believed this method produced an estimate that was representative of the Company’s expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants. The Company had no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants was likely to differ materially from historical volatility.  The expected life was based on the remaining contractual term of the warrants. The risk-free rate was based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponded to the expected term of the warrants.

NOTE 13 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
 
During 1999, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company adopted, with the approval of the stockholders, a Stock Option Plan.  In 2000, the Board superseded that plan and created a new Stock Option Plan, pursuant to which it is authorized to grant options to purchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock. On December 17, 2003, the Board, with approval of the stockholders, superseded this plan and created the 2003 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan the Company is authorized to grant options to purchase up to 18,000,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants, and other agents and advisors. The Plan is intended to permit stock options granted to employees under the Plan to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Incentive Stock Options”).  All options granted under the Plan, which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, are deemed to be non-qualified options (“Non-Statutory Stock Options”).

During 2013, Our Board of Directors adopted a new comprehensive incentive compensation plan which will serve as the successor incentive compensation plan to the earlier plan, and provide the Company with an omnibus plan to design and structure grants of stock options, stock units, stock awards, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based awards for selected individuals in our employ or service. Our Board of Directors believes that the availability of (i) 20,000,000 new shares of our common stock, plus (ii) the number of shares of our common stock subject to outstanding grants under the 2003 Plan as of the date of the Annual Meeting, plus (iii) the number of shares of our common stock remaining available for issuance under the 2003 Plan but not subject to previously exercised, vested or paid grants, for issuance under the 2013 Plan.
 
As of December 31, 2013, there are 18,425,996 options that have been issued, and 19,574,004 options that are available to be issued under the Plan.
 
The Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors (“Stock Option Committee”) which determines the persons to whom awards will be granted, the number of awards to be granted and the specific terms of each grant, including the vesting thereof, subject to the provisions of the plan.
 
-23-
 

 

 
In connection with Incentive Stock Options, the exercise price of each option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant (or 110% of the fair market value in the case of a grantee holding more than 10% of the outstanding stock of the Company). The aggregate fair market value (determined at the time of the grant) of stock for which an employee may exercise Incentive Stock Options under all plans of the company shall not exceed $1,000,000 per calendar year. If any employee shall have the right to exercise any options in excess of $100,000 during any calendar year, the options in excess of $100,000 shall be deemed to be Non-Statutory Stock Options, including prices, duration, transferability and limitations on exercise.
