Warrant exercisable price	$ 1.00
Description on warrants	The exercise price of these investor warrants was adjusted to $0.665 per share. We measured the value of the effect of the down round feature as the difference between the fair value of the financial instrument at an original exercise price of $1.50 and an adjusted exercise price of $0.665 and, as a result, $59,801 was recorded as down round feature as a dividend under retained earnings under ASC 260-10-30-1. Foothills determined the amount of $59,801 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
