None of the performance conditions were met prior to expiration, so no expense will be recognized, and no common stock warrants will vest under the performance conditions. During the year ended December 21, 2017, 120,000 of the common stock warrants under the service condition vested with the passage of time and the Company recognized expense of $6,118.

They will expire during the first 6 months of 2020.

Legal settlement – Replacement warrants  

 

Under the terms of the February 2016 Waiver of Performance and Second Amendment to Settlement Agreement with Spirit Bear, the Company agreed to April issued replacement warrants for previously amended and replaced warrants. Six million of the previously amended and replaced warrants owned by Spirit Bear and by Leonora Lorenzo had their expiration dates extended from January 29, 2017, until January 29, 2020, and had their exercise price reduced from $0.25 to $0.10 per share.

 

In addition, Spirit Bear consented to the withdrawal of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 that was pending before the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). The proposed registration statement covered the common shares underlying the preferred shares owned by Spirit Bear and the common shares underlying the warrants owned by Spirit Bear and Leonora Lorenzo.  

  

When a replacement equity instrument is issued, expense is recorded if the fair value of the new instruments is greater than the fair value of the original instruments. The Company recorded expense of $423,973 associated with the replacement warrants.
