Certain embedded features of our convertible securities and notes payable, as well as warrants to purchase our common stock, are treated as derivative liabilities. We do not use derivative instruments for hedging of market risks or for trading or speculative purposes.

 

In June 2010, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Montaur, pursuant to which Montaur exchanged the Montaur Notes and the Series A Preferred Stock for 10,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of this exchange transaction, the Company wrote off $966,000 in put option derivative liabilities during the second quarter of 2010.

 

In November 2010, we entered into agreements with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which the investors purchased $6.0 million of our common stock at $1.90 per share. In addition to the common stock, we issued two series of warrants to the investors: (1) one-year Series CC warrants to purchase 1,578,948 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.11 per share, and (2) two-year Series DD warrants to purchase 1,578,948 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.11 per share. The Series CC and Series DD warrants originally contained language that required Navidea to classify the warrants as derivative liabilities, and we recorded them at their estimated fair values totaling $1.2 million. In December 2010, a portion of the Series CC and Series DD warrants were modified to remove the language that had previously required them to be classified as derivative liabilities. As a result of the modification of certain of the Series CC and Series DD warrants, we reclassified $801,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital after marking the liabilities to market.

 

During 2010, 120,000 Series V warrants and 60,000 Series Z warrants were exercised. The Company reclassified $280,000 in derivative liabilities related to these warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

In January 2011, certain Series V warrants were modified to remove the language that had previously required them to be classified as derivative liabilities. As a result of the modification of the Series V warrants, we reclassified $1.4 million in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital during the first quarter of 2011. Also in January 2011, certain Series CC and Series DD warrants were modified to remove the language that had previously required them to be classified as derivative liabilities. As a result of the modification of the Series CC and Series DD warrants, we reclassified $549,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital during the first quarter of 2011.

 

During 2011, Mr. Bupp and certain members of his family exercised 810,000 Series V warrants in exchange for issuance of 810,000 shares of our common stock, resulting in gross proceeds of $255,600. The net effect of marking the derivative liabilities related to the exercised Series V warrants to market resulted in net increases in the estimated fair values of the derivative liabilities of $119,000, which were recorded as non-cash expense. As a result of the Series V warrant exercises, we reclassified $96,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

Also during 2011, the holders of 60,000 Series Z warrants exercised them on a cashless basis in exchange for issuance of 46,902 shares of our common stock. The net effect of marking the derivative liabilities related to the exercised Series Z warrants to market resulted in net increases in the estimated fair values of the derivative liabilities of $79,000, which were recorded as non-cash expense. As a result of the Series Z warrant exercises, we reclassified $164,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

In addition, the holders of Series CC warrants exercised them during 2011 in exchange for issuance of 1,578,948 shares of our common stock, resulting in gross proceeds of $3,331,580. Further, the holders of Series DD warrants exercised them during 2011 in exchange for issuance of 1,578,948 shares of our common stock, resulting in gross proceeds of $3,331,580. The net effect of marking the derivative liabilities related to the exercised Series CC and Series DD warrants to market resulted in net increases in the estimated fair values of the derivative liabilities of $752,000, which were recorded as non-cash expense. As a result of the Series CC and Series DD warrant exercises, we reclassified $1.1 million in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

In December 2011, in connection with entering into the Loan Agreement with Hercules, we issued a Series GG warrant to purchase 333,333 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.10 per share, expiring in December 2016. The Series GG warrant was accounted for as a liability at origination due to the existence of certain price reset provisions in the instrument which remained in effect for the first 365 days the warrant was outstanding. As a result, we recorded a current derivative liability with an estimated fair value of $520,478 on the date of issuance of the Series GG warrant. The net effect of marking the Series GG warrants to market during 2012 resulted in net decreases in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability of $38,000, which were recorded as non-cash income. In December 2012, the provisions of the Series GG warrant that resulted in treatment of the instrument as a derivative liability expired. As a result of the expiration of such provisions of the Series GG warrant, we reclassified $484,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital. See Note 11.

 

During 2012, the holder of 20,000 Series V warrants exercised them in exchange for issuance of 20,000 shares of our common stock, resulting in gross proceeds of $6,200. As a result of the Series V warrant exercise, we reclassified $52,000 in derivative liabilities related to those warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

Changes in the estimated fair values of our derivative liabilities are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. The net effect of marking our derivative liabilities to market during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 resulted in net (decreases) increases in non-cash (income) expense of ($32,000), $952,000 and $1.3 million. The total estimated fair value of our derivative liabilities was $569,000 and $2.5 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No derivative liabilities were outstanding as of December 31, 2012.
