Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 30, 2009, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the
"Subscription Agreement") with 66 accredited investors (the "Investors"),
pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to the Investors an aggregate of
3,490 preferred stock units (the "Units") at a purchase price of $700 per Unit
(the "Private Placement"). The $2,443,000 aggregate purchase price for the Units
was paid in cash to the Company.
Each Unit is comprised of one share of the Company's newly created Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Stock"), plus a five-year warrant to
purchase the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock equal to thirty
percent (30%) of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable from conversion
of one share of Series B Stock at the initial conversion price (the "Investor
Warrants"). The initial exercise price of each Investor Warrant is $0.55, which
was 110% of the last consolidated closing bid price of the Company's Common
Stock as determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules immediately preceding the
Company entering into the binding Subscription Agreement. The total number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants at the
initial exercise price is 2,094,000 in the aggregate.
Each share of Series B Stock is convertible at any time at the holder's option
into 2,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price per converted
share of Common Stock equal to $0.50, which was the last consolidated closing
bid price of the Company's Common Stock as determined in accordance with Nasdaq
rules immediately preceding the Company entering into the binding Subscription
Agreement. The conversion price of the Series B Stock is subject to adjustment
for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like. The total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Stock
at the initial conversion price is 6,980,000 in the aggregate. A complete
description of the terms of the Series B Stock was previously disclosed in the
Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on October 1, 2009.
In consideration for services rendered as the lead placement agent in the
Private Placement, on September 30, 2009, the Company paid J.P. Turner &
Company, LLC (i) cash commissions aggregating $195,440, which represents 8% of
the gross proceeds of the Private Placement, (ii) a management fee of $48,860,
which represents 2% of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement and (iii) an
expense allowance fee of $73,290, which represents 3% of the gross proceeds of
the Private Placement, and issued to J.P. Turner Partners, L.P. a five-year
warrant to purchase 907,400 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise
price of $0.55 per share (the "Agent Warrant"), which was 110% of the last
consolidated closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock as determined in
accordance with Nasdaq rules immediately preceding the Company entering into the
Agent Warrant.
The Investor Warrants and the Agent Warrant may be exercised in cash or pursuant
to a net exercise provision if the Company does not register the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants or Agent Warrant on
or prior to March 30, 2010. The exercise price of the Investor Warrants and the
Agent Warrant is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends,
recapitalizations and the like. The Investor Warrants and Agent Warrant also are
subject to a blocker that would prevent each holder's Common Stock ownership at
any given time from exceeding 4.99% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock
(which percentage may increase but never above 9.99%).
None of the Series B Stock, Investor Warrants, Agent Warrant or the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof has been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 and none may be offered or sold in the United States
absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
The Company does not plan to register the Series B Stock, Investor Warrants or
Agent Warrant (or the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor
Warrants or Agent Warrant), but has agreed to file a registration statement on
Form S-3 covering the resale of such number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Series B Stock as is permitted to be registered for
resale under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
actual terms of the Subscription Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and
the Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2, which are incorporated herein by
reference.
The number of shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding immediately after
the closing of the Private Placement was 9,995,716 shares.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information disclosed in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is
incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The sale and issuance of the
Units, Series B Stock, Investor Warrants and Agent Warrant (and the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise or conversion thereof) have been determined
to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, in reliance on
Section 4(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a
transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering, in which the investors
are accredited and have acquired the securities for investment purposes only and
not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof.
