Notes To Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

These interim condensed financial statements of COPsync, Inc. (the "Company") are unaudited, but reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the audited financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Because all the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are not included, these interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014. The results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, or any other period. The year-end condensed balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  All share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s 1-for-50 reverse stock split that occurred on October 14, 2015 (see Note 12).

NOTE 2 – NATURE OF ORGANIZATION AND LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT PLANS

The Company operates what it believes to be the only real-time, law enforcement mobile data information system in the United States.  The Company refers to this real-time, in-car information sharing, communication and data interoperability network as the “COPsync Network.” The COPsync Network, delivered via software as a service, is designed for the purpose of:

·
Connecting state and local law enforcement officers, regardless of agency jurisdiction, to a common communications system, enabling them to share mission critical, actionable information and communicate in real-time between and among themselves, as if they were one law enforcement agency;

·
Allowing officers to query, in real time, various local, state and federal law enforcement databases, including (i) the FBI Criminal Justice Information Service (CJIS) database, (ii) the law enforcement telecommunications system databases for the States of Texas, Mississippi and Massachusetts, (iii) the historical databases of the Company’s agency subscribers who have provided other subscribers with such access; (iv) the Department of Homeland Security’s El Paso Intelligence Center (EPIC) database, which collects information relating to persons crossing the United States border, and (v) the COPsync Network database, and, as the Company expands the scope of its operations to states others than noted above, it anticipates being able to provide access to the law enforcement telecommunications databases in those states as well, subject to approvals from the applicable governing state agencies;

·
Allowing dispatchers and officers to send, in real-time, BOLO (be on the lookout) and other alerts of kidnappings, robberies, car thefts, police pursuits, and other crimes in progress to all officers connected to the COPsync Network, regardless of agency jurisdiction;

·
Allowing officers to write tickets, offense reports, crash reports and other reports and electronically and seamlessly send, in real-time or near real-time, the information in those reports to the COPsync Network database and local court and agency databases; and

·
Informing officers of certain outstanding misdemeanor warrants at the point of a traffic stop and allowing the officers to provide the violator notice of the outstanding warrant, or collect payment for the warrant with a credit card, through a specific feature enhancement that the Company sometimes refers to as the WARRANTsync system.

The Company also offers the COPsync911 threat alert service for use in schools, hospitals, day care facilities, government office buildings, energy infrastructure and other facilities with a high level of concern about security.  The Company‘s COPsync911 service can reduce emergency law enforcement response times in those circumstances when seconds and minutes count.

When used in schools, the COPsync911 service enables school personnel to instantly and silently send emergency alerts directly to the closest law enforcement officers in their patrol vehicles, and to the local 911 dispatch center, with the mere click of an icon, from any computer within the facility and from any cell phones and other mobile devices associated with the facility.  The alert is also sent to the cell phones of all law enforcement officers in the area and to all teachers, administrators, and other staff at the school, alerting them of imminent danger.

Once the alert is sent, a “crisis communication portal” is established among the person(s) sending the alert, the responding patrol vehicles and the local law enforcement 911 dispatch center.  This allows the person(s) initiating the alert to silently communicate with responding officers and the 911 dispatch center about the nature of the threat, whether it is an active gunman, fire, suspicious person or other emergency.  The crisis communication portal also provides a link to a diagram of the school or other facility and a map to its location. 

The Company also augments its other services with its proprietary law enforcement in-car video system, named VidTac.

 Liquidity and Management Plans

At September 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $246,346, a working capital deficit of $4,130,970 and an accumulated deficit of $26,477,288.  The following factors are helping the Company manage its liquidity, avoid default with respect to any material third-party obligations and enable it to progress its business towards cash-flow break-even, and ultimately profitability:  

 1)  During the current fiscal year demand for the Company’s products and services is increasing as a result of new sales leadership appointed early in the second quarter of this fiscal year.  As an immediate consequence of this appointment, sales order bookings in the second quarter of this year were $1,452,000, followed by $1,740,000 in sales order bookings for the third quarter of this year.  The bookings for the second quarter represented an increase of 222% in sales bookings over the first quarter of 2015.  The third quarter bookings were the Company’s highest quarterly sales bookings number since the second quarter of 2013.  The timeline between receiving a sales order and when the Company recognizes revenue normally ranges from thirty days to four months, depending upon the contract value, type of funding and scope of work.

2)  On November 13, 2015, the Company’s stock and warrants commenced trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbols COYN and COYNW, respectively.  The Company also announced the pricing of an underwritten public offering of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, at an offering price of $3.49 per share and $0.01 per warrant.  The warrants have a per share exercise price of $3.125, are exercisable immediately, and expire five years from the date of issuance.  The gross proceeds to COPsync from this offering are approximately $10.6 million before deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses.  The Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of 454,286 additional shares of common stock and/or up to 454,286 additional warrants to cover over-allotments, if any.  The offering is expected to close on or about November 18, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions (see Note 19).
 
3)  During the third quarter of 2015, an aggregate principal amount of $689,455 of convertible debt was converted into 70,289 shares of company common stock shares.  Additionally, an aggregate of $109,490 of vendor payables was converted into 14,334 shares of company common stock.
 
4)  The Company continues to employ “just in time” principles in its procurement processes for third party hardware, meaning that it attempts to schedule delivery to the customer of the third party hardware that the Company sells immediately after it receives the hardware.  The Company also continues its attempts to collect customer prepayments for the third party hardware it sells at or about the time it orders the hardware, which has helped the Company manage its working capital needs.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated significant losses, which is common for companies at this stage of the Company’s maturity, as it has been developing its current and recently added product and service offerings. The Company has had recurring losses and expects to report losses for fiscal 2015. The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with other potential sources of cash, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s anticipated operations for the next twelve months.

NOTE 4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies.  Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items, which amends ASC Topic 225 – Income Statement.  The amendment eliminates the concept of extraordinary items and the financial statement and disclosure requirements relating to them.  ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, which is effective for the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2016.  Early adoption in interim and annual periods is permitted.  The impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, cash flows and disclosures will depend on the Company’s future activity.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to Consolidation Analysis, which amends ASC Topic 810 – Consolidations.  The amendment changes the analysis a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities.  Specifically, the amendments 1) modify the evaluation of whether certain entities are variable interest entities (VIE’s); 2) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership; 3) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIE’s; and 4) provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interest in certain legal entities.  ASU 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, which is effective for the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2016.  Early adoption in interim and annual periods is permitted.  The Company does not believe the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.  The Company will continue to assess any potential impact on its financial statements from the adoption of ASU 2015-02.
  
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which amends ASC Topic 835 – Interest.  The amendment changes the manner in which debt issuance costs are recorded on the balance sheet.  Specifically, ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts.  ASU 2015-013 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, which is effective for the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2016.  Early adoption in interim and annual periods is permitted.  The Company will continue to assess any potential impact on its financial statements from the adoption of ASU 2015-03.
 
NOTE 5 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The elimination of the unpaid deferred revenue for the respective periods represents those invoices issued for products and/or services not yet paid by the customer or services completed by the Company.  The elimination is made to prevent the “gross-up” effect on the Company’s Balance Sheet between accounts receivable and deferred revenues
 
The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon a review of outstanding receivables.  Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer.  The Company is no longer in discussions with the City of Pharr regarding converting the advance to an economic development grant. Accordingly, during the third quarter of 2015, the total allowance for doubtful accounts value was lowered by $159,000 specific to a $198,246 trade receivable involving the City of Pharr after management determined having the specific allowance was no longer necessary.  The Company’s intentions are to apply the $198,246 trade receivable for the City of Pharr against the $475,000 advance previously provided the Company by the City of Pharr and reported in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2015.
 
NOTE 6 – INVENTORY

Inventory consisted entirely of finished goods and totaled $451,252 and $246,077 at September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively.  The approximate $205,175 increase in inventory in the first nine months of 2015 is due principally to an increase in the Company’s VidTac finished goods inventory.  

Total inventory at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 included hardware consisting of computer laptops, printers and ancillary parts, such as electronic components, connectors, adapters and cables, as well as the Company’s propriety VidTac product and its related components.  Generally, the Company procures hardware as a result of receiving a customer order.  The hardware is procured, delivered to the Company, prepared for installation and then transported by the Company to the customer site for installation.  The Company does not procure any third-party hardware for speculative selling.  Further, the various components of hardware are all considered finished goods because the individual items may be, and are, sold in a package, or on an individual basis, normally at the same pricing structure.
 
The Company has contracted with a single manufacturer to produce the Company’s proprietary VidTac product.  The contract agreement calls for the Company to periodically place a demand purchase order for a fixed number of units to be manufactured and delivered as finished goods.  The Company’s purchase orders are non-cancellable; however, there are some relief provisions: (1) the Company may change the original requested delivery dates if the Company gives sufficient advance notice to the contract manufacturer; and (2) should the Company elect to cancel a purchase order in total or in part, it would be financially responsible for any materials that could not be returned by the contract manufacturer to its source suppliers.

When the VidTac product is recorded into finished goods, it consists of a kit with four basic components.  The Company records the product as a single unit of inventory.  Should a single component fail or need to be replaced, the Company will take a kit and then inventory the components, still considered finished goods.  Should a component need to be repaired, it is returned to the contract manufacturer for analysis and repair.  The repaired component is then shipped to the Company and inventoried as finished goods. 

In December 2014, the Company placed a demand purchase order for $433,000 with the contract manufacturer for units to be delivered ratably in fiscal year 2015, beginning in May 2015.  This order was to cover forecasted demand for the product during the delivery period, as well as to accommodate the long-lead times required for procuring certain components from off-shore manufacturers.  The payment terms for this purchase order required a 10% down-payment at the time of order placement, followed by full payment Net 30 days from invoice date once the units are delivered to the Company.  At September 30, 2015, the Company had taken delivery of units related to this demand purchase order valued at approximately $260,000.

Prepaid insurance pertains to various business insurance policies, the fees of which have been financed by a third-party service provider and are being paid over an eleven-month period.  This prepayment is amortized ratably over the twelve-month insurance coverage period.
 
Subscriptions principally pertain to prepaid software support and web-hosting services provided by third-party service providers.  The balance can fluctuate period-over-period based upon the timing between payment and amortization activities.  The prepayments are amortized into expense over the life of the specific service period.

Vendor prepayments principally involve two vendors: one, consisting of down-payments made to the Company’s contract manufacturer for new orders of the VidTac product, which are then applied on a unitized basis as credits on the vendor’s invoices when the finished product goes into finished goods inventory; and two, a vendor prepayment for services to be rendered.  These prepayments will be expensed as the services are rendered in 2015.
 
Deferred charges pertain to off-the-shelf computer-aided dispatch systems (“CAD”) purchased from two outside software services companies and delivered to six contracted customers as part of their respective, executed service agreement (or contract).  The contracts involved license fees for the CAD service over a four-year period commencing with the acceptance of the service, as well as one-time implementation fees specific to each agency.  The contracts were executed in early in 2013 and the customers made prepayments totaling $285,555, which is reported in current deferred revenues.  At September 30, 2015, there remains some services yet to be performed and delivered to the customers; therefore, revenue recognition is not appropriate at this time.  The Company expects to complete and deliver those services in fiscal year 2015, at which time these deferred charges will be recognized as revenues.

NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE – (NON-CONVERTIBLE)
 
The Company’s total nonconvertible notes payable at September 30, 2015 was $1,210,419, representing a net increase of $71,373 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2015.  The following table shows the components of notes payable, including three-year, 50% notes payable at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively:

In October 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a funding initiative for $750,000 to fund a software development effort for feature and function enhancements to enable the COPsync Network and COPsync911 threat alert system to more readily scale nationwide, of which $484,315 and $30,000 was raised in the first and second quarters of 2015, respectively.  The investment security is a three-year convertible promissory note, which bears interest at the rate of two percent simple interest per year, payable in cash.  The principal amount of the note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the rate of $11.00 per share.  The promissory note may be prepaid by the Company under certain conditions.

With each new issuance of convertible debt, the Company evaluates whether there is a beneficial conversion feature.   A beneficial conversion feature arises when the conversion price of a convertible instrument is below the per-share fair value, or trading price, of the underlying stock into which it is convertible.  The beneficial conversion feature is allocated between the debt and the beneficial conversion feature on relative fair value basis, and the amount allocated to beneficial conversion feature is then amortized as interest expense over the term of the note. The issuer of the convertible instrument realizes a cost based on the theory that the intrinsic value of the price difference (i.e., the price difference times the number of shares received upon conversion) represents an additional financing cost.  The Company determined the aggregate beneficial conversion feature for the convertible notes issued during the nine months ended 2015 was $367,155, which was recorded as a discount on non-current notes payable, offset by a benefit to paid-in capital.  For the nine-months ended September 30, 2015, $336,370 of the beneficial conversion feature was amortized to beneficial conversion costs.
 
On February 6, 2015, a single note holder elected to immediately convert his $65,000 convertible promissory note into 6,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, rather than $11.00 per share as set forth in the forms of his convertible promissory note.  The Company offered the slightly lower exercise price as an inducement for the note holder’s decision to immediately convert the note.  Additionally, the holder was granted warrants to purchase 6,500 additional shares of the Company’s common stock at $20.00 per share (see Note 12).

At March 31, 2015, the Company reclassified $337,532 in aggregate principal amount of eight convertible notes issued in fiscal year 2011 and maturing on March 31, 2016, from long-term liabilities to current liabilities on the Company’s Balance Sheet. 

In September 2015, several of the Company’s note holders converted $689,455 of the Company’s debt into shares of the Company’s common stock.  The conversion stock price ranged from $5.00 to $10.00 per share for 30,188 shares issued in September 2015.

NOTE 10 – PRIVATE PLACEMENT CONVERTIBLE NOTES

NOTE 11 – PREFERRED STOCK

Preferred Stock Series A

The Company issued a total of 100,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock in April 2008 as partial consideration for its acquisition of a 100% ownership interest in PostInk Technology, LP (“PostInk”).  Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of common stock, but has voting rights on a basis of 750 votes per share.  These shares are held by the former general partner of PostInk, which is owned by the co-founders of the Company.
 
Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into fully-paid non-assessable shares of common stock at the then effective conversion rate for such share.  The events that may trigger this automatic conversion event are as follows:  1) immediately prior to the closing of a firm commitment underwriting involving an initial public offering, or 2) upon the receipt of the Company of a written request for such conversion from the holders of at least a majority of the Series A Preferred stock then outstanding, or if later, the effective date for conversion specified in such requests.  
 
Preferred Stock Series B

During 2009 and the first quarter of 2010, the Company issued a total of 375,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock in a private placement in which the Company raised $1,500,000 in gross proceeds.  The 375,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into a total of 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
The shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock i) accrue dividends at a rate of 7.0% per annum, payable in preference to the common stock or any other capital stock of the Company, ii) have a preference in liquidation, or deemed liquidation, to receive the initial investment in the Series B Preferred Stock, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, prior to the common stock, iii) are convertible into 40 shares of common stock per share, subject to adjustment for issuances by the Company of common stock at less than $5.00 per share, and iv) have the right to elect one member of the Company’s Board of Directors.
 
For the nine-months ended September 30, 2015, gross dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock were $78,534, consisting of $51,514 for accretion of the beneficial conversion feature on the preferred shares dividends issued in kind and $27,020 for net dividends.  For the comparable period in 2014, dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock were $78,534 consisting of $51,514 for accretion of the beneficial conversion feature on the preferred shares dividends issued in kind and $27,020 for net dividends.  Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock agreed to convert their shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock in connection with the Company’s listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market (see note 19).

NOTE 12 – COMMON STOCK
 
On September 9, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved a 1-for-50 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The Reverse Stock Split was previously approved by a majority of the Company’s shareholders by written consent on July 7, 2015.  The Company effected the Reverse Stock Split by filing a Certificate of Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.   The Reverse Split became effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on October 14, 2015 (the “Effective Date”).  At the Effective Time, every 50 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding were automatically combined into one share of issued and outstanding Common Stock, without any change in the par value.  The financial statements and related notes retrospectively reflect the effect of the 1-for-50 reverse stock split.

The Company effected the Reverse Stock Split in connection with its application to list its Common Stock and Warrants on the NASDAQ Capital Market. On November 13, 2015, the Company’s common stock and warrants commenced trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbols COYN and COYNW, respectively.

NOTE 14 – BASIC AND FULLY DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

The computations of basic loss per share of common stock are based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period covered by the financial statements.  Common stock equivalents that would arise from issuance of shares of common stock to be issued under subscriptions and other obligations of the Company, the exercise of stock options and warrants, conversion of convertible preferred stock and dividends on those shares of preferred stock or the conversion of convertible promissory notes were excluded from the loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their value is anti-dilutive.
 
The Company's common stock equivalents, at September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which are not included in the calculation of fully diluted loss per share because they are anti-dilutive, consisted of the following:

With regards to purchase obligations listed above, the Company placed a demand purchase order for $433,130 with its VidTac contract manufacturer for finished units to be delivered ratably throughout an eight-month period commencing in May 2015.  The purchase obligation required a 10% down payment at the time of order placement. At September 30, 2015, the Company had taken delivery of units related to this purchase obligation valued at approximately $260,000.

The Company’s purchase order placed with the contract manufacturer is non-cancellable; however, there are some relief provisions: (1) the Company may change the original requested delivery dates if it gives sufficient advance notice to the contract manufacturer; and (2) should the Company elect to cancel the purchase order in total or in part, it would only be financially responsible for any materials that could not be returned by the contract manufacturer to its source suppliers.
 
Compensation
 
The Company has entered into employment agreements with its Co-founders, Russell Chaney and Shane Rapp. Such agreements provide for voluntary elections by Mr. Chaney and Mr. Rapp to forego certain specified salary increases until the Company becomes profitable or until the Company secures sufficient funding to sustain operations. The value of each person’s foregone salary for each of the six months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 totaled $30,000 for Mr. Chaney and $29,250 for Mr. Rapp and was recorded as contributed capital in Additional Paid-in Capital on the Company’s Balance Sheet.

Litigation
 
The Company is not currently involved in any material legal proceedings. From time-to-time the Company anticipates it will be involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business and otherwise. The ultimate costs to resolve any such matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. The Company could be forced to incur material expenses with respect to these legal proceedings, and in the event there is an outcome that is adverse to it, the Company’s financial position and prospects could be harmed.

Chaney.

NOTE 18 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
 
On June 11, 2015, the Company received a $50,000 advance from Joe Alosa, a member of the board, without accompanying paperwork.  The Company recorded the advance as a 90-day note, assuming 8% interest per annum.  The advance was subsequently documented between the two parties in October 2015.  The written terms included 1) 7% interest per annum, and 2) payment due within 30 days of the Company’s common stock commencing trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market.  If the note is not repaid when due, then it will become a demand note.
 
In December 2014, the Company executed a capital lease involving two automobiles with an equipment financing company owned by one of the Company’s outside directors.  The total value of the transactions was $35,098, consisting of: a term of four years; monthly lease payments during the term; and an effective annual interest rate of nine percent.
 
On February 28, 2014, the Company executed a $25,000, sixty-day promissory note payable to its chief executive officer for a loan in the same amount.  The note bears interest at 3.0% per annum, which is due upon maturity of the promissory note.  In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company repaid $17,500 of the principal amount of the note, leaving an outstanding balance of $7,500.  The Company’s chief executive officer elected to extend the maturity date of this note to March 31, 2016.  In September 2015, the $7,500 balance was used to partially pay for the exercise of a warrant to purchase 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $10.00 per share, effective June 30, 2015.  The shares of the Company’s common stock were issued in October 2015.

In August 2013, the Company’s chief executive officer loaned the Company $40,000, which was evidenced by a convertible promissory note bearing interest at 3% annually.  The note was originally due March 31, 2014; however, the due date was extended to March 31, 2016.  The convertible note could be converted at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share.  In October 2015, the note was converted into 8,000 shares of common stock.

In November 2013, the spouse of the Company’s chief executive officer loaned the Company $60,000, which was evidenced by a demand promissory note bearing interest at 3% annually.  The demand note was replaced shortly thereafter with a convertible promissory note totaling $60,000, also bearing 3% annual interest and originally due March 31, 2014; however, the due date was extended to March 31, 2016. The convertible note could be converted at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share. In October 2015, the note was converted into 12,000 shares of common stock.

In November 2013, the Company executed two short-term notes payable in the aggregate of $313,477 with an equipment financing company owned by one of the Company’s outside directors for the specific purpose of financing the purchase of certain third-party equipment to be sold to contracted customers.  Both notes were to mature in May 2014, bear interest at 16% annually, are payable upon maturity, and are collateralized by the third-party equipment being procured.  The maturity dates for both notes were formally extended until June 25, 2015.  On September 1, 2015, a new agreement was executed between the parties consisting of the following:  the agreement was styled as a rental agreement, consisting of: a total value of $322,305, inclusive of principal and interest; a term of 48 months, monthly payments of $5,465; a buy-out amount of $65,576; and a $60,000 cash payment upon signing.
 
In December 2012, the Company’s chief executive officer loaned the Company $120,000, which was evidenced by a demand promissory note bearing interest at 3% annually. The demand note, including accrued interest, was replaced with a convertible promissory note totaling $120,534, also bearing 3% annual interest and due one year from its issuance.  The accrued interest was to be paid in cash on a quarterly basis.  Further, the convertible note could be converted at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share.  During 2013, the Company’s chief executive officer agreed to extend the due date for this convertible promissory note to March 14, 2014.  The Company’s chief executive officer subsequently extended the due date to March 31, 2016.  In October 2015, the principal amount of the demand promissory note was converted into 24,107 shares of common stock.

NOTE 19 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
The Company has entered into an agreement with the Series B stockholders whereby they agreed to convert their shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, exercise their warrants at an exercise price reduced from $10.00 per share to $6.25 per share in full for cash, terminate the Investors’ Rights Agreement and waive any rights they may have under such agreement.  In return, we agreed to amend their warrants to reduce the exercise price from $10.00 per share to $6.25 per share, issue the Series B stockholders an additional aggregate 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, pay aggregate accrued dividends of up to $630,000 in cash within 30 days of the Company’s listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market and grant the Series B stockholders certain board and board observer rights. Such conversion and exercise occurred in connection with the Company’s listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market. In total, the Company issued 420,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the Series B stockholders in connection with such agreement.

On November 13, 2015, the Company’s common stock and warrants commenced trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbols COYN and COYNW, respectively.
 
The Company also announced the pricing of an underwritten public offering of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, at an offering price of $3.49 per share and $0.01 per warrant.  The warrants have a per share exercise price of $3.125, are exercisable immediately, and expire five years from the date of issuance.  The gross proceeds to COPsync from this offering are approximately $10.6 million before deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses.  The Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of 454,286 additional shares of common stock and/or up to 454,286 additional warrants to cover over-allotments, if any.  The offering is expected to close on or about November 18, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions.
 
Preceding the above announcement, certain convertible note holders, and note payable holders elected to convert their notes into shares of the Company’s common stock, as well as certain vendors elected to convert trade payables due them into shares of the Company common stock in lieu of cash in the aggregate values of approximately $205,000, $313,000 and $144,000, respectively.  In total, the Company issued 130,955 shares of the Company’s common stock to such persons.

Overview

COPsync, Inc. operates what we believe to be the only real-time, law enforcement mobile data information system in the United States.  We refer to this real-time, in-car information sharing, communication and data interoperability network as the “COPsync Network.” The COPsync Network, delivered via software as a service, is designed for the purpose of:

·  
Allowing law enforcement officers to compile and share information, in real-time, via a common database accessible by all such officers on the COPsync Network, regardless of agency jurisdiction;

·  
Allowing officers to query, in real time, various local, state and federal law enforcement databases, including (i) the FBI Criminal Justice Information Service (CJIS) database, (ii) the law enforcement telecommunications system databases for the States of Texas, Mississippi and Massachusetts, (iii) the historical databases of our agency subscribers who have provided us with such access, (iv) the Department of Homeland Security’s El Paso Intelligence Center (EPIC) database, which collects information relating to persons crossing the United States – Mexico border, and (v) our COPsync Network database, and, as we expand the scope of our operations to states other than noted above, we anticipate that we will provide access to the law enforcement telecommunications databases in those states as well, subject to approvals from the applicable governing state agencies;

·  
Allowing dispatchers and officers to send, in real-time, BOLO (be on the lookout) and other alerts of kidnappings, robberies, car thefts, police pursuits, and other crimes in progress to all officers on the COPsync Network, regardless of agency jurisdiction;
 
·  
Allowing officers to write tickets, offense reports, crash reports and other reports and electronically and seamlessly send, in real-time or near real-time, the information in those reports to the COPsync Network database and local court and agency databases;

·  
Informing officers of outstanding Texas Class C misdemeanor warrants, in real-time, at the point of a traffic stop and allowing the officers to collect payment for those warrants using a credit card, through a specific feature enhancement to the COPsync Network that we sometimes referred to as the WARRANTsync system;
 
We also offer the COPsync911 threat alert service for use in schools, hospitals, day care facilities, government office buildings, energy infrastructure and other facilities with a high level of concern about security.  When used in schools;

·  
The COPsync911 service enables school personnel to instantly and silently send emergency alerts directly to the closest law enforcement officers in their patrol vehicles, and to the local 911 dispatch center, with the mere click of an icon, from any computer within the facility and from any cell phones and other mobile devices associated with the facility;
 
·  
The alert is also sent to the cell phones of all law enforcement officers in the area and to all teachers, administrators, and other staff at the school, alerting them of imminent danger.  We expect our COPsync911 service to reduce emergency law enforcement response times in those circumstances when seconds and minutes count;
 
 
·  
Once the alert is sent, a “crisis communication portal” is established among the person(s) sending the alert, the responding patrol vehicles and the local law enforcement 911 dispatch center; and  
 
·  
The portal allows the person(s) initiating the alert to silently communicate with responding officers and the 911 dispatch center about the nature of the threat, whether it is an active gunman, fire, suspicious person or other emergency.  The portal also provides a link to a diagram of the school or other facility and a map to its location. 
 
We also augment our other services with our own law enforcement in-car video system, named VidTac.
 
Basis of Presentation, Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.  Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require management's most subjective judgments.
 
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  We discuss our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
 
Results of Operations

Revenues

Total revenues for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $1,263,546 and $3,681,023, respectively, compared to $1,302,267 and $4,369,678 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  Total revenues are comprised of software license/subscriptions revenue and hardware, installation and other revenue.  The Company views software license/subscriptions revenue as a key indicator of revenue performance in future years, since this revenue represents that portion of our revenue that is anticipated to recur as our service contracts renew from year-to-year.  Hardware, installation and other revenue is a one-time revenue event, and the Company does not view it as a key indicator of future performance.  Software license/subscriptions for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $730,577 and $2,139,768, respectively, compared to $701,424 and $1,928,988 or the respective comparable periods in 2014.  The increases in software license/subscriptions revenue were due to an increase in the number of law enforcement agency contracts increased revenue attributable to contract renewals, and our threat-alert service, COPsync911.  Hardware, installation and other revenues for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $532,969and $1,541,255, respectively, compared to $600,843 and $2,440,690 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  The decrease in these revenues was due to a significant decrease in the number of large, hardware intensive contracts, for both new customers and existing customers.  We anticipate this trend reversing itself beginning in the fourth quarter of 2015 when certain hardware-intensive contracts entered into primarily during the second quarter of 2015 are installed and revenue is recognized.

Some of our new contracts are multiple-year contracts that typically include hardware, installation and training (and integration in some cases) and software license/subscriptions revenue during the first year of the contract, followed by software license/subscriptions revenue during the remaining years of the contract.  Normally, we receive full payment up front upon inception of the contract.  This up-front payment is initially recorded as deferred revenues and subsequently recognized as revenue ratably during the service period.  As of September 30, 2015, we had $2,340,017 in deferred revenues, compared to $2,526,990 as of December 31, 2014.  We do not believe that the deferred revenues resulting from these payments will have a material effect on our future working capital for the later years of the contract service periods because a large portion of our continuing customer support costs are incrementally fixed in nature.

Total cost of revenues for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, were $725,240 and $2,170,471, respectively, compared to $654,968 and $2,681,295 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  As a result, we realized gross profits for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 of $538,306 and $1,510,552, respectively, compared to $647,299 and $1,688,383 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.
 
Cost of revenues for hardware, installation and other revenues for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $422,940 and $1,242,985, respectively, compared to $411,486 and $1,908,754 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  The increase for the quarter is attributable to higher payroll and related costs for increased headcount, which resulted from new hires and the realignment of headcount between the hardware installation and customer support functions.  The decrease for the nine months in cost of these revenues between the periods was due to lower hardware sales in 2015.  Included in the cost of these revenues are internal costs, which totaled $97,228 and $200,141 respectively, in 2015, compared to $69,819 and $177,490 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  These internal costs represent salaries and travel expenses for our in-house installation and training staff.  The decrease in gross profit performance was due principally to the decreased volume of this business.
 
Cost of revenues for software license/subscription revenues for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $302,300 and $927,486, respectively, compared to $243,482 and $772,541 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  These costs represent internal costs associated with our customer support team and web-hosting facilities, as well as amortization of capitalized developmental software.  The resulting gross profit from software license/subscription revenues for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $428,277 and $1,212,282, respectively, compared to $457,942 and $1,156,447, respectively, for comparable periods in 2014.  Beginning in 2015, the Company no longer reports amortization of capitalized software expense because the asset became fully amortized as of December 31, 2014.  This has the effect of reducing the 2015 expense by approximately $109,000 per quarter.  However, this reduction is being offset by increased costs of customer support and maintenance services being performed by our Research and Development Group.  For comparison purposes, we have reclassified $63,900, in the first nine months of 2014 from Research and Development Operating Expenses to Software License/Subscription Cost of Sales Expenses.

 
Our total cost of revenues has the potential to fluctuate with revenues because of the variable cost nature of hardware, installation and other revenues contained in future contracts.  Conversely, our internal costs associated with installation, training, customer support and web-site hosting were relatively flat throughout year 2015.  

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Total research and development expenses for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $316,116 and $1,261,283, respectively, compared to $499,934 and $1,458,605 for the respective comparable periods in 2014.  The respective decrease between periods was due principally to contract labor for IT/Software development services for the scalability project which was subsequently placed on hold in second quarter 2015.  The scalability project involves architectural changes to our propriety software, which will facilitate our plans to expand the COPsync Network nationwide.

We believe our research and development expenses will remain relatively flat until after the Company’s common stock and warrants commence trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market at which time research and development expenses are expected to increase to accommodate planned product/service development.

Sales and Marketing

Total sales and marketing expenses for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $563,213 and $1,378,402, respectively, compared $398,607 and $1,047,608 for the respective comparable periods in fiscal 2014.  The increase in these expenses between periods was due primarily to increases in headcount occurring in year 2015, as well as an increase in contracted sales consultants whose purpose is to expand our sales penetration in, and outside of the State of Texas.

We expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase as we continue to grow the business.
 
General and Administrative

Total general and administrative expenses for the three-month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $577,143 and $1,595,760, respectively, compared to $366,343 and $1,160,417 for the respective comparable periods in fiscal 2014.  The year-over-year increase in expenses for the nine-month period is due principally to professional services incurred in the second and third quarter of 2015 involving our commencing of the NASDAQ up-listing process.  These additional services involve specialized legal, investment banking, investor relations, public relations and other advisory service providers.
 
Our general and administrative expenses are expected to continue at higher levels during the fourth quarter of 2015 because of the NASDAQ up-listing process.

Other Expense

Other expense, consisting of interest expense, totaled $591,298 and $830,207 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $44,569 and $101,691, respectively, for same periods in fiscal 2014.   We incurred beneficial conversion costs of $598,255 relating to the conversion of notes to common stock during the third quarter of 2015, which included $96,558 of beneficial conversion expensed with interest in the first and second quarters and reclassified in the third quarter.  Interest expense adjusted for reclassifying beneficial conversion costs is $79,901 an increase of $31,578 related to completed debt transactions in 2015.  The non-cash portion of interest expense for the period ended September 30, 2105 is approximately $140,000 and pertains principally to the discount on the three-year, 50% notes.
 
Net Loss Before Income Taxes

The net loss before income taxes for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 were $1,509,464 and $3,555,100, respectively, compared to $665,908 and $2,018,201, respectively, for the same periods in fiscal 2014.  These changes occurred for the reasons described above.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We have funded our operations since inception through the sale of equity and debt securities and from cash generated by operating activities.  As of September 30, 2015, we had $246,346 in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $587,459 as of December 31, 2014.  The $341,113 decrease in cash was due to net cash used in operating activities of $2,584,237 and investing activities of $9,328, partially offset by net cash provided by financing activities of $2,252,452.
 
 
The net cash provided by financing activities represents cash proceeds of $2,123,068 from the issuance of a series of convertible notes, $607,001 in net proceeds from short-term promissory notes executed in 2015, and $119,366 from the exercise of warrants to purchase 14,333 shares of our common stock and $2,544 in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock for cash.  These inflows were partially offset by $563,118 in outflows representing payments on short-term promissory notes payable to third-party financiers and monthly payments on outstanding notes for automobile and business insurance loans, as well as $5,659 in payments on capitalized lease obligations and $30,750 related to the three year 50% notes.
 
We had a working capital deficiency of $4,130,970 on September 30, 2015, compared to a deficiency of $3,484,825 on December 31, 2014.  However, on September 30, 2015, our current liabilities included $2,340,017 in net deferred revenues attributable to future performance obligations under prepaid customer contracts, the actual future costs of which we believe will not represent a majority of this amount.
 
Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months

We expect our liquidity position to improve as we proceed through fiscal 2015, thus enabling us to support our planned operating expenses.  In the first nine months of 2015, we continued our efforts to manage our liquidity, to avoid default on any third-party obligations and to continue growing our business towards cash-flow break-even, and ultimately profitability, including the following:
 
1)  During the current fiscal year, we are seeing an accelerating demand for our products and services as a result of new sales leadership appointed early in the second quarter of this fiscal year. As an immediate consequence of this appointment, sales order bookings in the second quarter of this year were $1,452,000, followed by $1,740,000 in sales order bookings for the third quarter of the year.  The bookings for the second quarter represented an increase of 222% in sales bookings over the first quarter of 2015.  The third quarter bookings were our highest quarterly sales bookings number since the second quarter of 2013.  Further, we expect the fourth quarter to be a very strong sales bookings quarter as well.  The timeline between receiving a sales order and when we recognize revenue normally ranges from thirty days to four months, depending upon the contract value, type of funding and scope of work.
 
2)  On November 13, 2015, our common stock and warrants commenced trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbols COYN and COYNW, respectively.  We also announced the pricing of an underwritten public offering of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,028,572 shares of common stock, at an offering price of $3.49 per share and $0.01 per warrant.  The warrants have a per share exercise price of $3.125, are exercisable immediately, and expire five years from the date of issuance.  The gross proceeds to us from this offering are approximately $10.6 million before deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses.  We have granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of 454,286 additional shares of common stock and/or up to 454,286 additional warrants to cover over-allotments, if any.  The offering is expected to close on or about November 18, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions (see Note 19).
 
3)  During the third quarter of 2015, an aggregate of $689,455 of convertible debt was converted into 94,608 shares of our common stock shares.  Additionally, an aggregate principal amount of $109,490 of vendor payables was converted into 14,334 shares of our common stock.
 
4)  We continue to employ “just in time” principles in its procurement processes for third party hardware, meaning that we attempts to schedule delivery to the customer of the third party hardware that the we sell immediately after we receive the hardware.  We also continue our attempts to collect customer prepayments for the third party hardware we sell at or about the time we order the hardware, which has helped the Company manage its working capital needs.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have accumulated significant losses as we have developed our product and service offerings.  We have had recurring losses and expect to report losses for fiscal 2015.  We believe that cash flow from operations, together with the potential sources of debt and equity above will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operations for the next twelve months.

 
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies.
 
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we conducted, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting information required to be disclosed within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
 
 
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
 
We are not currently involved in any material legal proceedings.  From time-to-time we anticipate we will be involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business and otherwise. The ultimate costs to resolve any such matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.  We could be forced to incur material expenses with respect to these legal proceedings, and in the event there is an outcome in any proceeding that is adverse to us, our financial position and prospects could be harmed.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which outlines factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, and the additional risk factors below.  The risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 are not the only risks facing our Company.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions or operating results.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO OUR OPERATIONS

We rely predominantly on sales to governmental entities, and the loss of a significant number of our contracts would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows.
 
Our sales are predominantly derived from contracts with agencies of local governments. Selling to government entities can be highly competitive, expensive and time consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that we will successfully sell our products to such governmental entity. In order to sell to government entities, we may be required to obtain approval and/or certification by such government entities, and may require the maintenance of certain security clearances for facilities and employees, which can entail administrative time and effort possibly resulting in additional costs and delays. Additionally, such approval and/or certification processes may change, or more stringent processes may be developed, which may restrict our ability to continue to sell to government entities. Further, our sales, and results of operations, may be adversely affected by the curtailment of these governmental agencies’ use of technology, including curtailment due to governmental budget reductions. Governmental budgets available to purchase our software services and products could be negatively affected by several factors, including events we cannot foresee, such as local government budget shortfalls, federal and state government budget limitations resulting in the curtailment of grant programs that would otherwise cover the purchase of our services, current or future economic conditions, a change in spending priorities, and other related exigencies and contingencies. A significant decline in or redirection of local law enforcement expenditures in the future could result in a decrease to our sales, earnings and cash flows.

If we do not protect our proprietary information and prevent third parties from making unauthorized use of our products and technology, our financial results could be harmed.
 
Most of our software and underlying technology is proprietary. We seek to protect our proprietary rights through a combination of confidentiality agreements and procedures and through copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secret laws. However, all of these measures afford only limited protection and may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented by third parties. Any patent licensed by us or issued to us could be challenged, invalidated or circumvented or rights granted there under may not provide a competitive advantage to us. Furthermore, patent applications that we file may not result in issuance of a patent or, if a patent is issued, the patent may not be issued in a form that is advantageous to us. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, others may independently develop similar products, duplicate our products or design around our patents and other rights. In addition, it is difficult to monitor compliance with, and enforce, our intellectual property on a cost-effective manner.

 
Third parties claiming that we infringe their proprietary rights could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and prevent us from selling our products and services.

From time to time, we might receive claims that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others, including claims regarding patents, copyrights, and trademarks. Because of constant technological change in the segments in which we compete, the extensive patent coverage of existing technologies, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is possible that the number of these claims may growIn addition, former employers of our former, current, or future employees may assert claims that such employees have improperly disclosed to us the confidential or proprietary information of these former employers. Any such claim, with or without merit, could result in costly litigation and distract management from day-to-day operations. If we are not successful in defending such claims, we could be required to stop selling, delay shipments of, or redesign our products, pay monetary amounts as damages, enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, or satisfy indemnification obligations that we have with some of our customers. We cannot assure you that any royalty or licensing arrangements that we may seek in such circumstances will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. We may incur significant expenditures to investigate, defend and settle claims related to the use of technology and intellectual property rights as part of our strategy to manage this risk.
 
In addition, we license and use software from third parties in our business. These third party software licenses may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, and may expose us to additional liability. This liability, or our inability to use any of this third party software, could result in shipment delays or other disruptions in our business that could materially and adversely affect our operating results.
 
The federal trademark “COPSYNC” is held by a third party. If the third party were to assert a trademark infringement claim against us, we could incur substantial costs and expenses in defending the claim and could be forced to relinquish our use of the “COPSYNC” mark and adopt a different trademark. This could cause a loss of the goodwill we have accumulated with respect to the sales of our products and services using the “COPSYNC” mark and could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK

We effected our 1-for-50 reverse stock split on October 14, 2015. The stock price of our common stock may decline the period following the reverse stock split.
 
We effected our 1-for-50 reverse stock split on October 14, 2015. We effectuated the reverse stock split in order to achieve the requisite increase in the market price of our common stock to be in compliance with the minimum price requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market. We cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock following the reverse stock split will remain at the level required for continuing compliance with that requirement. It is not uncommon for the market price of a company’s common stock to decline in the period following a reverse stock split. If the market price of our common stock declines following the effectuation of the reverse stock split, the percentage decline may be greater than would occur in the absence of the reverse stock split.

The reverse stock split may decrease the liquidity of the shares of our common stock.
 
The liquidity of the shares of our common stock may be affected adversely by the 1-for-50 reverse stock split given the reduced number of shares that will be outstanding following the reverse stock split, especially if the market price of our common stock does not increase as a result of the reverse stock split.

Following the reverse stock split, the resulting market price of our common stock may not attract new investors, including institutional investors, and may not satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. Consequently, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not improve.
 
Although we believe that a higher market price of our common stock may help generate greater or broader investor interest, we cannot assure you that the reverse stock split will result in a share price that will attract new investors, including institutional investors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market price of our common stock will satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. As a result, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not necessarily improve.

Future sales and issuances of our capital stock or rights to purchase capital stock could result in dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.

Future sales and issuances of our capital stock or rights to purchase our capital stock could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. We may sell common stock, convertible securities and other equity securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner as we may determine from time to time. If we sell any such securities in subsequent transactions, our stockholders may be materially diluted. New investors in such subsequent transactions could gain rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock.
 
 
Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2015, we issued the following equity securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Note Conversions
 
On August 23, 2015, September 10, 2015, September 25, 2015, September 23, 2015 and September 28, 2015, we issued an aggregate of 30,100 shares of our common stock to ten persons upon the conversion of $296,596 of notes payable.  Such conversions were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act based on our belief that the shares of common stock were exchanged by existing note holders exclusively and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting the conversion.
Common Stock Issued to Vendors
 
On September 30, 2015, we issued an aggregate of 14,333 shares of our common stock to four persons as payment for $109,500 of invoices.  Such issuances were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act based on our belief that our common stock was sold to a limited number of financially sophisticated persons that were given access to information relevant to their potential investment.  We had a substantive, pre-existing relationship with each of the persons and no general solicitation or advertising was involved.

Issuance of Private Placement Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants

On July 14, 2015, July 23, 2015 and August 10, 2015 we issued $1,795,000, in the aggregate, of convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase our common stock to 30 persons.  Such issuances were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act based on our belief that the issuance of such securities did not involve any general solicitation or advertising, all of the purchasers were “accredited” investors and a notice filing on Form D was timely submitted to the Commission.

In connection with the private placement we also issued to the placement agent a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 28,320 shares of common stock on terms substantially similar to the warrants issued to the investors in the private placement.  Such issuances were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act based on our belief that our common stock was sold to just to the placement agent who was given access to information relevant to its potential investment.  We had a substantive, pre-existing relationship with the placement agent and no general solicitation or advertising was involved.

Other Warrant Issuances
 
On September 9, 2015 we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 12,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $8.50 per share to two persons.  Such issuances were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act based on our belief that our common stock was sold to a limited number of financially sophisticated persons that were given access to information relevant to their potential investment.  We had a substantive, pre-existing relationship with each of the persons and no general solicitation or advertising was involved.
