Series A

The Company has designated 215 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”). Each share of Series A is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time, into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.363 per share. In the event of a change of control (as defined in the purchase agreement with respect to the Series A), or at the holder’s option, on November 19, 2014 and for a period of 180 days thereafter, provided that at least 50% of the shares of Series A issued on the Series A Original Issue Date remain outstanding as of November 19, 2014, and the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A provide written notice requesting redemption of all shares of Series A, the Company was required to redeem the Series A for the purchase price of $5,000 per share, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. By way of the redemption option available to holders of the Company’s Series A shares having expired on May 18, 2015 with no Series A holders requesting redemption of their shares, the redemption feature at the option of the holders was eliminated, thereby, resulting in the reclassification of $1,322,112 from temporary equity, which was classified as “redeemable preferred stock” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, to permanent equity during the year ended December 31, 2015.

On November 16, 2009, the Company sold 215 shares of Series A with attached warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,628,800 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.33 per share. The Series A shares were sold at a price per share of $5,000 and each Series A share is convertible into approximately 13,774 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.363 per share. The Company received $1,075,000 from the sale of the Series A shares. On November 19, 2014 and for a period of 180 days thereafter, the Series A were redeemable at the option of the holder and the carrying value of the preferred stock, net of discount and including accumulated dividends, had been classified as redeemable preferred stock on the consolidated balance sheets. The redemption feature at the option of the holders expired, thereby, resulting in the reclassification from temporary equity to permanent equity during the year ended December 31, 2015.

A portion of the proceeds were allocated to the warrants based on their relative fair value, which totaled $287,106 using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Further, the Company attributed a beneficial conversion feature of $70,922 to the Series A preferred shares based upon the difference between the effective conversion price of those shares and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model were as follows: (1) dividend yield of 0%; (2) expected volatility of 123%, (3) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 2.2%, (4) expected life of 5 years, and (5) fair value of Telkonet common stock of $0.24 per share. The expected term of the warrants represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards and giving consideration to the contractual terms. The amounts attributable to the warrants and beneficial conversion feature, aggregating $358,028, were recorded as a discount and deducted from the face value of the preferred stock. The discount was being amortized over the period from issuance to November 19, 2014 (the initial redemption date) as a charge to additional paid-in capital (since there is a deficit in retained earnings) and an increase to the net loss attributable to common stockholders.

The charge to additional paid in capital for amortization of Series A discount and costs for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $64,207.

For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded accrued dividends for Series A in the amount of $36,707 and $74,026, respectively and had cumulative accrued dividends of $452,886 and $378,859 as of December 2015 and 2014, respectively. The recorded accrued dividends have been charged to additional paid-in capital (since there is a deficit in retained earnings) and an increase to the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and the net unpaid recorded accrued dividends been added to the carrying value of the preferred stock.

Series B

The Company has designated 538 shares of preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B”). Each share of Series B is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time, into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.13 per share. As a result of the Series B conversions during the year ended December 31, 2013, the outstanding Series B shares are not redeemable at the option of the holders. The Series B accrues dividends at an annual rate of 8% of the original purchase price, payable only when, as, and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors.

On August 4, 2010, the Company sold 267 shares of Series B with attached warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,134,626 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.13 per share. The Series B shares were sold at a price per share of $5,000 and each Series B share was convertible into approximately 38,461 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.13 per share. The Company received $1,335,000 from the sale of the Series B shares. Up and until the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Series B were redeemable at the option of the holder, the carrying value of the preferred stock, net of discount and including accumulated dividends, had been classified as redeemable preferred stock on the consolidated balance sheets. During the year ended December 31, 2011, shareholders converted 45 redeemable preferred shares issued on August 4, 2010, to, in aggregate, 1,730,762 shares of common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2013, shareholders converted 167 redeemable preferred shares issued on August 4, 2010, to, in aggregate, 6,423,072 shares of common stock.

A portion of the proceeds from the August 4, 2010 offering was allocated to the warrants based on their relative fair value, which totaled $394,350 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Further, the Company attributed a beneficial conversion feature of $394,350 to the Series B preferred shares based upon the difference between the effective conversion price of those shares and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model were as follows: (1) dividend yield of 0%; (2) expected volatility of 123%, (3) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 1.76%, (4) expected term of approximately 4 years, and (5) estimated fair value of Telkonet common stock of $0.109 per share. The expected term of the warrants represents the estimated period of time until exercise and was based on historical experience of similar awards and giving consideration to the contractual terms. The amounts attributable to the warrants and beneficial conversion feature, aggregating $788,700, were recorded as a discount and deducted from the face value of the preferred stock. The discount is being amortized over the period from issuance to November 19, 2014 (the initial redemption date) as a charge to additional paid-in capital (since there is a deficit in retained earnings). During the year ended December 31, 2013, a portion of the discount of approximately $123,100 was accelerated and recognized immediately as a charge to additional paid-in capital and accretion of preferred stock discounts and an increase to the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the 167 redeemable preferred shares converted to common stock.

On April 8, 2011, the Company sold 271 additional shares of Series B with attached warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,211,542 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.13 per share. The Series B shares were sold at a price per share of $5,000 and each Series B share was convertible into approximately 38,461 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.13 per share. The Company received $1,355,000 from the sale of the Series B shares. During the year ended December 31, 2013, all 271 of the redeemable preferred shares issued on April 8, 2011, were converted to, in aggregate, 10,423,067 shares of common stock.

As a result of the Series B conversions during the year ended December 31, 2013, fewer than 50% of the Series B shares issued on the Series B Original Issuance Date, August 4, 2010, remain outstanding, and the balance of the outstanding Series B shares will not become redeemable at the option of the holders. The redemption feature at the option of the holders is eliminated, thereby, resulting in the reclassification of $324,063 from temporary equity, which was classified as “redeemable preferred stock” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, to permanent equity during the year ended December 31, 2013.

A portion of the proceeds from the April 18, 2011 offering were allocated to the warrants based on their relative fair value, which totaled $427,895 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Further, the Company attributed a beneficial conversion feature of $427,895 to the Series B shares based upon the difference between the effective conversion price of those shares and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model are as follows: (1) dividend yield of 0%; (2) expected volatility of 129%, (3) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 0.26%, (4) expected life of approximately 3.5 years, and (5) estimated fair value of Telkonet common stock of $0.12 per share. The expected term of the warrants represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards and giving consideration to the contractual terms. The amounts attributable to the warrants and beneficial conversion feature, aggregating $855,790, have been recorded as a discount and deducted from the face value of the Series B shares. The discount is being amortized over the period from issuance to November 19, 2014 (the initial redemption date) as a charge to additional paid-in capital (since there is a deficit in retained earnings). During the year ended December 31, 2013, the remaining discount of approximately $261,300 was accelerated and recognized immediately as a charge to additional paid-in capital and accretion of preferred stock discounts upon the 271 redeemable preferred stock conversions to common stock.

The charge to additional paid in capital for amortization of Series B discount and costs for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $25,942.

Liquidation preference of the preferred stock is based on the following order: first, Series B with a preference value of $394,055 and second, Series A with a preference value of $1,377,886. Both series of preferred stock are equal in their dividend preference over common stock.
