Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 13, 2006, GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 1,352,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase 1,352,000 shares of Common Stock (“Warrant Shares”) to the Purchasers at a price of $2.50 per share, or an aggregate of $3,380,000 in cash before transaction expenses. The Warrants may not be exercised prior to May 15, 2007 and expire on May 15, 2012 and are exercisable at a price of $3.15 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The exercise price will not, in any event, be adjusted to a price of less than $2.81 per share except in the event of stock dividends, stock splits or similar events. In addition, Thomas W. Brown, the Chairman of the Board, and David L. Mann, a member of the Company’s board of directors, sold a total of 2,028,000 shares, at a price of $2.50 per share in a private transaction with the Purchasers. The transactions closed on November 16, 2006 (the “Closing Date”). The Common Stock sold by the Company, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities laws in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares sold by the Company and Messrs. Brown and Mann may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. There was no general solicitation involved in the offer. The Company and Messrs. Brown and Mann paid a cash commission of $500,000 out of their proceeds to America’s Growth Capital, LLC which acted as the Company’s placement agent.
The Company also agreed, pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, promptly following the closing but no later than December 16, 2006, to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 or such other successor form (except that if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Common Stock on Form S-3, then such registration shall be on Form S-1 or any successor form) (a “Registration Statement”) to enable the resale of the Common Stock and the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) by the Purchasers or their transferees from time to time over any national stock exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock is then traded, or in privately-negotiated transactions. The Company has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective by the earlier of (i) the 90th calendar day following the Closing Date (the 120th calendar day in the event of a full review by the SEC; provided that, if the Company has filed the Registration Statement by December 16, 2006 and the SEC has not completed its review and declared the Registration Statement effective on or prior to February 13, 2006, then the time period for being effective shall be extended to the 150th calendar day after the Closing Date) and (ii) the 10th business day after the SEC advises the Company that the Registration Statement will not be reviewed or the SEC has no further comments on the Registration Statement (the “Required Effective Date”) and to remain continuously effective for a period ending on the date that is the earlier of (i) the two-year anniversary of the date that the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, (ii) the date on which the Purchasers may sell all Registrable Securities then held by the Purchasers without restriction under Rule 144(k), or (iii) otherwise transferred to persons who may trade such securities without restriction or limitation under the Securities Act.
2
If (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to December 16, 2006; or (ii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Required Effective Date; or (iii) after the Required Effective Date, the Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective, or the Purchasers are not permitted to utilize the prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities for 30 consecutive calendar days but no more than an aggregate of 60 calendar days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive Trading Days) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clause (i) or (ii) the date on which such Event occurs or for purposes of clause (iii) the date on which such 30 or 60 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Purchasers may have under the Registration Rights Agreement or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any of the shares sold by the Company and Warrant Shares then held by such Holder; provided, that such liquidated damages shall not exceed 12% of the aggregate purchase price paid by all Holders pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for such shares.
The foregoing statements are qualified in their entirety by the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the form of Warrant filed as exhibits to this report.
