On June 10, 2004, Voyager and Cornell Capital Partners ("Cornell") entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement ("SEDA") for equity funding to be provided to the Company. Cornell was to receive a $740,000 fee and Newbridge Securities Corporation ("Newbridge") was to receive a $10,000 fee for services to be provided over the term of the SEDA agreement. The Company issued a $740,000, 0% interest, convertible debenture to Cornell and a $10,000, 0% interest, convertible debenture to Newbridge as payment for these financing fees. The Company recorded a deferred financing fee asset in the amount of $750,000 for these two fees, to be amortized over a three year period, and recorded the convertible debentures as liabilities on the balance sheet in accordance with EITF 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services. No cash was transferred between the parties related to the SEDA transaction.
Cornell and the Company agreed to void the SEDA agreement on March 17, 2005 and Cornell and Newbridge agreed to void the related convertible debentures issued to them. This action was taken prior to the issuance of the year end financial statements on March 30, 2005. The Company recorded an adjustment to reduce its deferred loan fees and the convertible debentures by the original $750,000, in accordance with SAS 1, Codification of Auditing Standards and Procedures. In addition, the Company reversed the loan fee amortization, in the amount of $125,000, related to the $750,000 fees, since no services had ever been provided to the Company by either Cornell or Newbridge. According to SAS 1, the cancellation of the SEDA is a Type I Subsequent Event, which is an event that provides additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the financial statements and that affect the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the financial statements, thereby requiring the December 31, 2004 financial statements to reflect the cancellation of the SEDA.
