The company&#8217;s share price climbed over 5% and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a> stopped at $0.133 by the closing bell. Traders were obviously undisturbed by the series of filings that the company put up over the last few days, given the price movement.<\/p>\n<p>On October 5, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a> announced that the increase of the company&#8217;s authorized shares cap from 110 million to 410,000,000. Everyone who has been monitoring OTC stocks long enough knows what usually happens in relatively short order after a company increases its authorized shares, especially when it uses such a generous multiplier.<\/p>\n<p>If anyone is wondering what prompted that move, a part of the answer is contained in the previous two 8-K filings published by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a>. Both of those went public on October 2. The first one revealed that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a> was amending existing warrant pricing. The exercise price of the company&#8217;s July 2014 warrants for the purchase of 6.3 million shares was lowered from a range of $4.93 &#8211; $0.29 all the way down to a fixed exercise price of $0.06.<\/p>\n<p>The second 8-K modified a couple of share purchase agreement and the terms of a convertible debenture. Under the old terms, the debentures could convert into common stock at a 49% discount from the lowest volume-weighted average price 20 days prior to conversion. It seems that with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a> spending most of last month over $0.10 per share, the massive discount was not a good enough offer. Under the new terms conversion can happen at the same 49% discount, using the VWAP not 20 but 60 days prior to conversion, essentially allowing the noteholder to get much cheaper shares.<\/p>\n<p>It seems all of this blew over the head of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a> shareholders ad the company closed green over three consecutive sessions, with all those filings publicly available. It remains to be seen how the changes will affect <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=MDBX\">MDBX<\/a>&#8216;s share price in the long run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday Medbox Inc (OTCMKTS:MDBX) managed to pull to a third consecutive green close.
