On June 6, 2007, we issued to Kuhns Brothers, Inc. and its designees an aggregate of 17,646 shares of Series A Preferred and a Series J warrant to purchase an aggregate of 496,296 shares of common stock of the Company at $1.62 per share in connection with the reverse merger transaction pursuant to the placement agent agreement with the Kuhns Brothers, Inc.

The Series B preferred stock has liquidation rights senior to common stock and Series A preferred stock. In the event of a liquidation of the Company, holders of Series B preferred stock are entitled to receive a distribution equal to $40.50 per share of Series B preferred stock prior to any distribution to the holders of common stock and Series A preferred stock. The Series B preferred stock is entitled to non-cumulative dividends only upon declaration of dividends by the Company. To date, no dividends have been declared or accrued. The Series B preferred stock will participate based on their respective as-if conversion rates if the Company declares any dividends. After the Amendment were filed effect the Reverse Split, each share of Series B preferred stock would be convertible into 30 shares of Common Stock for $1.35 each, which both may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the conversion rate.

The holders of Series B preferred stock shall be entitled to voting rights by applicable law and the right to vote together with the holders of Common and Series A Preferred Stock.

The gross proceeds of the transaction were $6.7 million. The proceeds from the transaction were allocated to the Series B preferred stock, warrants and beneficial conversion feature based on the relative fair value of the securities. The value of the Preferred Series B was determined by reference to the market price of the common shares into which it converts, and the gross value of the warrants was calculated using the Black–Scholes model with the following assumptions: expected life of 1 year, volatility of 117% and an interest rate of 4.99%.

The Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature discount on the Series B preferred stock at its intrinsic value, which was the fair value of the common stock at the commitment date for the Series B preferred stock investment, less the effective conversion price but limited to the $6.7 million of proceeds received from the sale. The Company recognized the $6.7 million beneficial conversion feature as an increase in paid in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets on the date of issuance of the Series B preferred shares since the Series B preferred shares were convertible at the issuance date.

The agreement, also provided that if a Registration Statement is not effective within a certain period of time or the common shares are not listed on the NASDAQ or American exchange by December 31, 2008, the Company will pay the holders of the shares a penalty that can range from $67,000 to $670,000 and certain principal shareholders would issue up to 1,000,000 additional shares to the purchasers of the Preferred Series B shares. The company is accounting for these penalties in accordance with ASC 450 “Contingencies” which codified FAS 5 - Accounting for Contingencies, whereby the penalty will not be recorded as a liability until and if it is probable the penalty will be incurred. No penalty has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for this contingency.

Under the agreement, Warrant J was expired on June 5, 2008. On that day, Vision Opportunity Master Fund Ltd. converted all the Warrant J, totally 4,362,416 shares into 4,362,416 of common stock.

On February 7, 2008, 12 shareholders of Preferred Series A converted 228,530 shares into 13,711,831 shares of common stock, in which Rise Elite International Limited, Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd and Kuhns Brothers, Inc converted 210,886, 7,990 and 2,647 shares of Preferred Series A into 12,653,160, 479,400 and 158,820 shares of common stock respectively.

On June 18, 2008, Columbia China Capital Group, Inc. converted 4,938 shares of Preferred Series B into 148,140 shares of common stock.

On November 10, 2008, Columbia China Capital Group, Inc. converted the Warrant J, totally 53,691 shares into 53,691 of common stock.

On June 5, 2012, all of the Series A, Series B, Series C, and Series D were expired.

On October 15, 2012, Vision Opportunity Master Fund Ltd and Vision Capital Advantage Fund, LP (the “Sellers”) entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Liang Deli, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Sunway Global, Inc. (the “Company”) and Zhao Qichao (together with Mr. Liang, the “Buyers”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Sellers agreed to sell and transfer 4,896,959 shares of common stock of the Company and 160,494 shares of Series B Preferred Shares of the Company (the “Shares”) to the Buyers for an aggregate purchase price of $5,000,000.This transaction is not yet completed.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815") (previously ElTF 07-5, "Determining Whether an instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock"). As a result of adopting ASC 815, the outstanding warrants of the Company previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment as there was a down-round protection (full-ratchet down round protection). As a result, the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company's own stock, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire.

As such, effective January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified the fair value of these warrants from equity to liability, as if these warrants were treated as a derivative liability since their issuance in June 2007. On January 1, 2009 the Company recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment by decreasing additional paid-in capital amounting to $3,990,942 and decreasing beginning retained earnings by the amount of $65,910,931 and recording $69,901,873 as a warrant liability to recognize the fair value of such warrants on January 1, 2009. The fair value of the warrants was nil and $1,165,692 on December 31,2012 and December 31, 2011 respectively. The Company recognized $1,165,692 and $16,353,823 as income from the change in fair value of warrants for the years ended December 31,2012 and 2011 respectively.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company adopts lattice model with Monte Carlo Simulations to measure the various outcome so as to calculate the most likely expected future value of the convertible shares at a define time period. The Company believes that the lattice model can improve the valuation of the existing warrants with consideration of early exercise rights and down ratchet exercise price reset provision. The change is accounted for as change in accounting estimates. As opposed to closed form model like Black Scholes which assumes warrants be exercised on expiry date, the lattice model assumes a low probability of early exercise due to declining stock prices and sample different price paths using Monte Carlo simulation.
