12. Related-Party Transactions Gregg R. Honigblum, the Chief Executive Officer of each of Creation Capital, LLC (“Creation Capital”) and Creation Capital Advisors, LLC (“Creation Advisors”), joined the Company’s board of directors in December 2006 and resigned in September 2013. The Company completed offerings of preferred stock and convertible debt through Creation Capital, as its placement agent, and it received strategic financial advisory services from Creation Advisors. In connection with the conversion of notes to shares of Series F convertible preferred stock in December 2012, the Company was obligated to pay Creation Advisors a strategic financial advisory fee of approximately $447,000. Creation Advisors agreed to a payment plan whereby the Company would pay one half of the advisory fee (or approximately $224,000) immediately, and pay the other half in monthly installments over a period of 24 months. In conjunction with a warrant restructuring and the sale and issuance of other shares of common stock in March 2013, Creation Advisors was paid a strategic financial advisory fee of approximately $250,000. In October 2013, the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement for financial advisory services with Creation Advisors in which Creation Advisors was to receive compensation of up to $180,000 in cash (payable $15,000 per month). The Company paid $45,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013 under this agreement. The Company paid $45,000 under this agreement during the year ended December 31, 2014. This agreement was terminated in March 2014 and as consideration for termination of the agreement, the Company paid $60,000 and issued 50,000 restricted shares of common stock, valued at $372,000, to Creation Advisers.
