NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT

 

 

GENERAL INFORMATION

 

To the Holders of Common Stock of CoroWare, Inc.:

      

This Information Statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is being furnished, pursuant to Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”), to the holders  (the “ Common Stockholders ”) of Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), of CoroWare, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), to notify such Common Stockholders that on Date, the Company received a unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “ Series D Preferred ”).  Each share of Series D Preferred has the equivalent of one hundred thousand (100,000) votes of Common Stock.  Currently, there are 3 holders of Series D Preferred (together, the “ Series D Stockholders”), collectively holding 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred, resulting in the Series D Stockholders holding in the aggregate approximately 69% of the total voting power of all issued and outstanding voting capital of the Company (the “ Majority Stockholders ”).   The Majority Stockholders authorized the following:

 

- An amendment of the Articles of Incorporation to reflect a one-for-two hundred reverse split;

 

We have attached as Appendix A hereto a form of the proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, indicating the one-for-two hundred reverse split.

 

On November 11, 2013 the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved, and recommended for approval to the holders having the power to vote with respect to the Common Stock, the Authorized Common Stock Reverse Split (the “Action”).  On November 11, 2013, the Majority Stockholders approved the Action by written consent in lieu of a meeting in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (“ DGCL”).  Accordingly, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of the Action.

 

We will mail the Notice to the Common Stockholders on or about November 25, 2013.

 

WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND A PROXY.

 

The Board believes that the Common Stockholders of the Company will benefit from this Action because it believes that the Company will be able to attract new investors for investment in its mobile robotics and enhanced collaboration businesses, and extinguish legacy debt.

The Board believes that the Common Stockholders of the Company will benefit from the reverse split and an increased ability to trade the shares through a greater variety of brokers in that many brokers will not trade in shares of sub-penny stocks.

Our board of directors has unanimously adopted and majority voting shareholders have approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, also referred to as the Charter, that would effect a one-for-two hundred reverse split of our Common Stock.

The amendment will effect a one-for-two hundred reverse split of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The reverse stock split may not have any economic effect on our stockholders, debt holders or holders of options or restricted stock, except to the extent the reverse stock split would result in fractional shares, as discussed further below.

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

The one-for-two hundred reverse stock split is necessary to support the Company’s market price and is in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. In addition to increasing the price of our common stock, the reverse stock split would also make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors.

Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our common stock through the reverse stock split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share market price of our common stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our common stock will increase following the reverse stock split or that the market price of our common stock will not decrease in the future.

Effect on Existing Shares of Common Stock

The proposed reverse stock split would affect all of our common stockholders uniformly and would not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in any of our stockholders owning a fractional share, as described below. Proportionate voting rights and other rights and preferences of the holders of our common stock are affected by a reverse stock split, in that the proportion of voting rights of the Preferred D shares are not affected, and therefore the voting rights of the common stockholders are decreased as a proportion of voting rights. This will further concentrate voting control with the holders of the Preferred D shares, most of whom are members of management. Any other change is as a result of rounding up fractional shares to the next whole number. The below table illustrates a 1:200 reverse stock split with respect to the number of shares of the Company's common stock currently authorized, currently issued and outstanding, and currently authorized but unissued. 

   Pre-Reverse  Post-Reverse
Authorized Shares   13,000,000,000    13,000,000,000 
Issued and Outstanding Shares   4,497,031,528    22,485,158 
Authorized but unissued   8,502,968,472    12,977,514,842 

The changes in voting rights as a result of this action are shown in the table below.

 

  Pre-Reverse Post-Reverse % Voting Rights Pre-Reverse % Voting Rights Post-Reverse
Common shares votes 4,497,031,528   22,485,158 31% 00.2%
Preferred D shares votes 10,000,000,000 10,000,000,000 69% 99.8%

 

Since the reverse stock split will result in increased available shares, it may be construed as having an anti-takeover effect. Although neither the Board of Directors nor the management of the Company views this proposal as an anti-takeover measure, the Company could use the increased available shares to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of the Company. For example, the Company could privately place shares with purchasers who might side with the Board of Directors in opposing a hostile takeover bid or issue shares to a holder which would, thereafter, have sufficient voting power to assure that any proposal to amend or repeal the Bylaws or certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation would not receive the requisite vote.  Our Certificate of Incorporation already includes authorization of preferred stock, which can also be seen as an anti-takeover measure, and our Board of directors can designate the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of series of preferred stock without further shareholder action.  Cumulative voting is not provided for in our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, which also may make it harder for third parties to gain control over the Company. We do not currently have a staggered Board of Directors, and we have not adopted any shareholders rights plans, or so-called poison pills.  Further, there are no other plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.

Effectiveness of Reverse Stock Split

The reverse stock split would become effective on the date (the “Effective Date”) of filing of a Certificate of Amendment to our Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The exact timing of the filing of the amendment will be determined by the board of directors based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to us and our stockholders, and the board of directors. In addition, the board of directors reserves the right, notwithstanding stockholder approval and without further action by the stockholders, to elect not to proceed with the reverse stock split if, at any time prior to filing the amendment, the board of directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. The Company’s authorized shares of our common stock will not be affected.

No Appraisal Rights

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the reverse stock split described in this filing, and we will not independently provide our stockholders with any such rights.

Contractual obligations

The Company intends to consider issuing shares for the purposes of attracting private financing through S-1 registrations and addressing convertible debt obligations that the Company entered into. The following table sets forth the contractual obligations of the Company as of December 31, 2012:

We do not have sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock to eliminate legacy convertible debt through stock conversions. The convertible debt notes limit the conversions of debt into stock in such a way that the debt holders are required limit their holdings to less than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The Company has no current plans to issue any new shares of common stock. The following table sets forth the convertible note obligations of the Company as of December 31, 2012 as further described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2012:

(a)$2,825,000 Convertible debenture financing:

The Company is party to a convertible debenture with Yorkville which provided for the sale of its 14% secured convertible debentures in the original aggregate principal amount of $2,825,000, net of deferred financing costs of $263,143.  The note was originally executed in three tranches as follows:  Tranche 1 for $1,250,000 on July 21, 2006, Tranche 2 for $575,000 on August 21, 2006 and Tranche 3 for $1,000,000 on December 7, 2006.

The Debenture matures on the third anniversary of the date of issuance (see Note 8 for debt maturity schedule). The holder of the Debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the Debentures into shares of common stock of the Company at the lesser of $6.00 or 85% of the 30-day VWAP.  The Company's obligations under the Purchase Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and those of its wholly owned subsidiary, CoroWare Technologies, Inc.

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to Yorkville two-year warrants to purchase 3,333 and 5,000 shares of Common Stock at prices equal to $150 and $300, respectively, together with three-year warrants to purchase 7,667, 6,667 and 8,333 shares of Common Stock at prices equal to $75, $195 and $225, respectively.  All of these warrants have expired unexercised.

The Company has the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the Debenture prior to the Maturity Date at a 10% redemption premium plus accrued interest provided that the closing bid price of the Common Stock is less than the Conversion Price and there is an effective Registration Statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants (as defined below).  In addition, beginning on the earlier of: (i) the first trading day following the day which the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, or (ii) December 1, 2006, and continuing on the first trading day of each calendar month thereafter, Yorkville may require the Company to redeem up to $500,000 of the remaining principal amount of the Debentures per calendar month.  However, Yorkville may not require the Company to redeem the Debentures if the closing bid price of the Common Stock exceeds the Conversion Price for each of the two consecutive trading days immediately prior to the redemption date, and the Registration Statement has been declared effective and remains effective on the redemption date. The Company has the option, in its sole discretion, to settle any requested redemptions by either paying cash and a 10% redemption premium plus accrued interest or issuing the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the cash amount owed divided by a stock price equal to 95% of the 30 day VWAP (lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of the redemption). The following redemptions have occurred in conjunction with this debenture financing:

Date of Redemption  Principal Redeemed  Number of shares issued
 2006   $25,000    629 
 2007   $930,000    59,946 
 2008   $280,051    925,794 
 2009   $30,000    573,220 
 2010   $137,300    20,360,857 
 2011   $50,170    55,536,746 

 

In the Company’s evaluation of this instrument in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (pre-codification FAS 133 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities”), based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were: Effective Term (using the remaining term of the host instrument); Effective Volatility (89.08% - 123.72%); and Effective Risk Adjusted Yield (15.97% - 33.59%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $1,798,350 at inception.  The Company also determined that the warrants did not meet the conditions for equity classification because share settlement and maintenance of an effective registration statement are not within its control.  The fair value allocated to the warrants instruments was $637,700 at inception. The remaining $388,950 was allocated to the carrying value of the debenture.

On December 31, 2010, Yorkville assigned 46.3% of Tranche 1 (aggregating $341,123 principal and $227,140 interest) to an unrelated third party (“Ratzker”).  See discussion below in Note 9(h).  On January 12, 2011, Yorkville assigned 100% of Tranche 2 (aggregating $567,200 in principal and $317,510 in interest) to an unrelated third party (“Westmount”).  See discussion below in Note 9(p).

The remaining portions of Tranche 1 ($395,628 principal) and Tranche 3 ($82,630 principal) remain with Yorkville and are currently in default.  Management is working with Yorkville to develop a plan for repayment of this debt.  In order to estimate a value for the embedded conversion feature for financial statement presentation at December 31, 2011, management needed to make certain assumptions about the estimated maturity date of this debt.  It was estimated that this debt would not be called prior to November 1, 2012.

(b)$600,000 Convertible debenture financing:

The Company is party to a convertible debenture with Yorkville which provided for the sale of its 14% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000, net of deferred financing costs of $75,000. The holder of the Debentures may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the Debentures into shares of common stock of the Company at the lesser of $6.00 or 85% of the 30-day VWAP.  The Company's obligations under the Purchase Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and those of its wholly owned subsidiary, CoroWare Technologies, Inc.

The Company had the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the Debenture prior to the Maturity Date at a 12% redemption premium plus accrued interest provided that the closing bid price of the Common Stock is less than the Conversion Price and there is an effective Registration Statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants (as defined below).  In addition, beginning on the issuance date, Yorkville may require the Company to convert any amounts owed.  However, Yorkville may not require the Company to redeem the Debentures if the closing bid price of the Common Stock exceeds the Conversion Price for each of the two consecutive trading days immediately prior to the redemption date, and the Registration Statement has been declared effective and remains effective on the redemption date. The Company has the option, in its sole discretion, to settle any requested conversions by either paying cash and a 12% redemption premium plus accrued interest or issuing the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the cash amount owed divided by a stock price equal to 85% of the 30 day VWAP.

In the Company’s original evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were: Effective Term (using the remaining term of the host instrument); Effective Volatility (89.08% - 123.72%); and Effective Risk Adjusted Yield (15.97% - 33.59%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $706,800 at inception.

This convertible debenture matured in 2009 and is currently in default.  Management is working with Yorkville to develop a plan for repayment of this debt.  In order to estimate a value for the embedded conversion feature for financial statement presentation at December 31, 2011, management needed to make certain assumptions about the estimated maturity date of this debt.  It was estimated that this debt would not be called prior to November 1, 2012.

 

(c)$300,000 Convertible debenture financing:

On March 19, 2008, the Company consummated a Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 19, 2008 with Y.A. Global Investments (“Yorkville”) for the sale by the Company to Yorkville of its 14% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000, net of deferred financing costs of $60,000 which was advanced immediately in March 2008.

The holder of the Debentures may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the Debentures into shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price per share equal to $6.00.  The Company's obligations under the Purchase Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and those of its wholly owned subsidiary, CoroWare Technologies, Inc.   Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to Yorkville two-year warrants to purchase 33,333 shares of Common Stock at a price equal to $6.

The Company has the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the Debenture prior to the Maturity Date at a 14% redemption premium plus accrued interest provided that the closing bid price of the Common Stock is less than the Conversion Price and there is an effective Registration Statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants (as defined below).  In addition, beginning on the issuance date, Yorkville may require the Company to convert any amounts owed.  However, Yorkville may not require the Company to redeem the Debentures if the closing bid price of the Common Stock exceeds the Conversion Price for each of the two consecutive trading days immediately prior to the redemption date, and the Registration Statement has been declared effective and remains effective on the redemption date. The Company has the option, in its sole discretion, to settle any requested conversions by either paying cash and a 14% redemption premium plus accrued interest or issuing the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the cash amount owed divided by a stock price equal to 85% of the 30 day VWAP.

In the Company’s original evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value F-19 determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were: Effective Term (using the remaining term of the host instrument); Effective Volatility (89.08% - 123.72%); and Effective Risk Adjusted Yield (15.97% - 33.59%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $150,000 at inception.  The Company also determined that the warrants did not meet the conditions for equity classification because share settlement and maintenance of an effective registration statement are not within its control.  The fair value allocated to the warrants instruments was $50,000 at inception. The remaining $100,000 was allocated to the carrying value of the debenture.

This convertible debenture matured in 2010 and is currently in default.  Management is working with Yorkville to develop a plan for repayment of this debt.  In order to estimate a value for the embedded conversion feature for financial statement presentation at December 31, 2011, management needed to make certain assumptions about the estimated maturity date of this debt.  It was estimated that this debt would not be called prior to November 1, 2012.

(d)$75,000 Collins financing:

On December 9, 2010, the Company amended a note payable that has been outstanding from February 11, 2003.  The amended terms of the note call for a variable conversion price of 70% of the market price.  The market price is defined as the average of the lowest three trading prices for the common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to the date the conversion notice is sent by the holder.  The Debenture matured on June 27, 2003 and remains in default.

In the Company’s evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instrument using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were:

Effective Term (using the estimated remaining term of the host instrument); Effective Volatility (141.39%); and Effective Risk Adjusted Yield (12.5%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $61,039 at inception.  The remaining $13,961 was allocated to the carrying value of the debenture.  As of December 31, 2010, this note carried a discount of $53,341 which is being amortized using the effective interest method over the estimated life of 10 months.

During December 2010, the original holder of the note sold it to a third party investor (“Collins”) with all of the terms remaining the same.  Collins subsequently made the following conversions: 

Date of Redemption  Principal Redeemed  Number of shares issued
 2010   $9,300    3,100,000 
 2011   $20,290    21,500,000 

 

 

(e)$27,500 Asher financing:

On February 1, 2011, the Company consummated an unsecured Securities Purchase Agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale by the Company of its 8% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $27,500, net of deferred financing costs of $2,500.

The holder of the debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the debenture into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal to 51% of the market price, which is defined as the lowest 3 trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to conversion.

In the Company’s original evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the

Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were: effective term (using the remaining term of the host instrument); effective volatility (145.01% - 130.17%); and effective risk adjusted yield (12.5%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $36,729 at inception.  Derivative expense of $9,229 was recognized at inception.

This convertible debenture matured in November 2011 and is currently in default.  In order to estimate a value for the embedded conversion feature for financial statement presentation at December 31, 2011, management needed to make certain assumptions about the estimated maturity date of this debt.  It was estimated that this debt would not be called prior to November 1, 2012.

On August 9, 2012, the Company consummated an unsecured Securities Purchase Agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale by the Company of its 8% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $17,500, net of deferred financing costs of $2,500.

The debenture matures on May 13, 2013, nine months from the date of issuance. The holder of the debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the debenture into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal to 50% of the market price, which is defined as the average of the lowest 3 trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 30 trading days prior to conversion.

In the Company’s evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior. Significant assumptions underlying this methodology were: effective term (using the remaining term of the host instrument); effective volatility (222.71% - 212.43%); and effective risk adjusted yield (12.5%).  As a result of these estimates, the valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance of $15,452 at inception.  There was no derivative expense recognized at inception.

On August 9, 2012, the Company consummated an unsecured Securities Purchase Agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale by the Company of its 8% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $17,500, net of deferred financing costs of $2,500.

The debenture matures on May 13, 2013, nine months from the date of issuance. The holder of the debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the debenture into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal to 50% of the market price, which is defined as the average of the lowest 3 trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 30 trading days prior to conversion.

On August 2, 2012, Cariou sold $20,000 of his convertible note to Asher.   In connection with the sale, the Company restated the interest rate on the note from 15% to 10% and changed the conversion rate from the 5 day average closing price using the 5 trading days prior to conversion to 40% of the Market Price (defined as the average of the (1) lowest trading price for common stock during the 30 day trading period ending one trading day prior to the date of conversion).  Additionally, the beneficial ownership limit was increased from 4.99% to 9.99%.

 

(f)$10,750 Barclay financing:

The holder of the debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the debenture into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal to 50% of the fair market value, but not to exceed $0.05/share or be less than $0.0001/share.  Fair market value is defined as the lower of i) the closing bid price for the date immediately preceding the date of conversion (excluding trades that are not arms-length) or ii) the average of last 5 trading days volume weighted average price.  The Company's obligations under the convertible promissory note are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and those of its wholly owned subsidiary, CoroWare Technologies, Inc.

In the Company’s original evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior.

This convertible debenture matured July 28, 2011 and is currently in default.  In order to estimate a value for the embedded conversion feature for financial statement presentation at December 31, 2011, management needed to make certain assumptions about the estimated maturity date of this debt.  It was estimated that this debt would not be called prior to November 1, 2012.

  

(g)$9,750 Mackie financing:

On February 3, 2011, the Company consummated an unsecured convertible promissory note with an unrelated third party for $9,750.

The holder of the debenture may, at any time, convert amounts outstanding under the debenture into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal to 85% of the 5 day average closing price using the 5 trading days prior to the conversion date.

In the Company’s evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior.

(h)$ 170,562 Ratzker financing:

Yorkville Advisors transferred a 46.3% portion of Tranche 1 of the $2,825,000 debenture to a third party (“Ratzker”) effective December 31, 2010.  The assignment aggregated $568,263, representing $341,123 of unpaid principal and $227,140 of accrued interest.  At that time, there was no accounting impact for CoroWare as it was merely an assignment between debt holders.  On March 18, 2011, Ratzker modified the terms of the debenture such that the interest rate was lowered from 14% to 5% and the maturity date was extended until March 18, 2013.  Simultaneously, the conversion rate on the debenture was modified from 85% of the 30 day Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) to 65% of the 30 day VWAP.

The modification was analyzed in accordance with current accounting standards and was determined not to be a troubled debt restricting or an extinguishment of debt.  As such, it was accounted for as a modification and no gain or loss was recognized on the transaction.  A debt discount of $236,779 was recognized for the difference in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature before and after the modification date.  A new effective rate was calculated for the new debenture and the related debt discount is being amortized using the effective interest rate over the new 2 year term of the underlying loan.  Amortization for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $32,864. On March 21, 2011, Ratzker transferred 50% of his ownership interest in this debenture to another unrelated party (“Redwood”).  The terms of the debenture did not change with that transfer.  As such, this transfer was also considered an assignment between debt holders and did not have an accounting impact on the Company.  See discussion below in Note 9(q) for Redwood financing.

With the extension of the maturity date, this debenture is no longer in default and has been reclassified to long-term liabilities on the accompanying balance sheet.

The modification was analyzed in accordance with current accounting standards and was determined not to be a troubled debt restricting but rather an extinguishment of debt as there was a substantial difference in terms on the new debt.  As the old debt was being carried at face value, there was no gain or loss recognized on the extinguishment.

In the Company’s evaluation of this instrument in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, based on the variable conversion price and lack of authorized shares, it was determined that the conversion feature was not afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument and did not otherwise meet the conditions for equity classification.  As such, the conversion and other features were compounded into one instrument, bifurcated from the debt instrument and carried as a derivative liability, at fair value.  The Company estimated the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instruments using the Monte Carlo valuation model because this methodology provides for all of the necessary assumptions necessary for fair value determination; including assumptions for credit risk, interest risk and conversion/redemption behavior.

The DGCL, however, requires that in the event an action is approved by written consent, a Company must provide prompt notice of the taking of any corporate action without a meeting to the stockholders of record who have not consented in writing to such action and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to a company.

In accordance with the foregoing, we will mail the Notice to the Common Stockholders on or about November 25, 2013.

This Information Statement contains a brief summary of the material aspects of the Action approved by the Board of Directors (the “ Board ”) of CoroWare, Inc.

As of October 29, 2013, there were issued and outstanding (i) 4,497,031,528 shares of our Common Stock, and (ii) 100,000 shares of our Series D Preferred.  Based on the foregoing, the total aggregate amount of votes entitled to vote regarding the approval of the Action is fourteen billion, four hundred ninety seven million, thirty one thousand, two hundred twenty eight (14,497,031,528) (the sum of the votes represented by the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series D Preferred).  Pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, at least fifty one percent (51%) of the voting equity of the Company, or at least seven billion, three hundred ninety three million, four hundred eighty six thousand, seventy nine (7,393,486,079) votes, are required to approve the Action by written consent. The Series D Stockholders, which hold in the aggregate ten billion, one hundred fifteen million, two hundred ninety one thousand, one hundred ninety three (10,115,291,193) votes or approximately 82% of the voting equity of the Company, have voted in favor of the Action, thereby satisfying the requirement under Section 228 of the DGCL that at least a majority of the voting equity vote in favor of a corporate action by written consent.

The following table sets forth the name of the Series D Stockholders, the number of shares Common Stock and of Series D Preferred held by each Series D Stockholder, the total number of votes that the Series D Stockholders voted in favor of the Actions and the percentage of the issued and outstanding voting equity of the Company that voted in favor of the actions.

 

Name of Series D Stockholder  Number of Shares of Common Stock Held  Number of Shares of Series D Preferred held  Number of Votes held by such Series D Stockholder  Number of Votes that Voted in favor of the Actions  Percentage of the Voting Equity that Voted in favor of the Actions
Lloyd Spencer   54,216    60,000   x 100,000   6,000,054,216    41%
Shanna Gerrard   5.000    20,000   x 100,000   2,000,005,000    14%
Jared Robert   17,299,965    20,000   x 100,000   2,017,299,965    14%

  

ACTION TO BE TAKEN

The Reverse Split will become effective on the date that we file the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.  Such filing can occur no earlier than twenty (20) calendar days after the mailing of this information statement.

We currently expect to file the Amendment on or about December 16, 2013.

With respect to the Action described in this Information Statement, the Board reserves the right, notwithstanding that the Series D Stockholders have approved each Action, to elect not to proceed with one or more Actions if, at any time prior to filing the Amendment, the Board, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of the Company’s stockholders to consummate any one or more of the Actions.

REVERSE SPLIT 

The one-for-two hundred reverse stock split is necessary to support the Company’s market price and is in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. In addition to increasing the price of our common stock, the reverse stock split would also make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors.

Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our common stock through the reverse stock split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share market price of our common stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our common stock will increase following the reverse stock split or that the market price of our common stock will not decrease in the future.

 

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our voting securities as of November 11, 2013 of (i) each person known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, (ii) our directors, (iii) each named executive officer and (iv) all directors and named executive officers as a group.  As of November 11, 2013, there were a total of 4,497,031,528 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on matters on which holders of voting stock of the Company are eligible to vote.  As of November 11, 2013, there are 3 holders of Series D Preferred Stock, collectively holding 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred has the equivalent of one hundred thousand (100,000) votes of Common Stock. The Series D Stockholders hold in the aggregate approximately 69%% of our total voting securities. The column entitled “Voting Securities Beneficially Owned” shows the percentage of total voting stock beneficially owned by each listed party. 

The number of shares beneficially owned is determined under the rules promulgated by the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.  Under those rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which a person or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power plus any shares which such person or entity has the right to acquire, within sixty (60) days of November 11, 2013 through the exercise or conversion of any stock option, convertible security, warrant or other right.  Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power (or shares such power with that person’s spouse) with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that person or entity.
