Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Private Placement Offering
On October 3, October 22, and November 17, 2014, Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) completed closings of its best efforts private offering (the “Offering”) of 12% Series B Convertible Bonds (the “Series B Bonds”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to a bond purchase agreement, the Company sold Series B Bonds for an aggregate of $881,500 to a total of 18 accredited investors. Such Series B Bonds mature on September 30, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), unless voluntarily converted.
On or prior to the Maturity Date, the Purchaser must notify the Company whether the repayment of the Series B Bond will be made in cash or in shares of common stock of the Company, par value $.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”). At the Maturity Date, if the Series B Bond will be repaid in shares of the Common Stock, then Bond shall be repaid in shares of common stock as follows: (i) in the event the Company’s shares of Common Stock are trading at $2.67 or higher based on a 10-Day VWAP immediately prior to the Maturity Date, then the repayment price shall be set at $2.00 per share, or (ii) in the event the Company’s shares of Common Stock are trading below $2.67 based on a 10-Day VWAP, then the repayment price shall be set at a 25% discount to the 10-Day VWAP calculated immediately prior to the Maturity Date, provided however, that in no event will the repayment price be less than $1.20. The Purchasers may elect to convert the Series B Bonds, including all accrued but unpaid coupon payments at any time prior to the Maturity Date into restricted shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share.
If an Event of Default (as defined in the Series B Bond) occurs, among other things, (i) the interests rate on the Series B Bond shall automatically increase to eighteen percent (18%) and (ii) any time after a 30 day written notice to the Company of an Event of Default, the holder may convert a portion of the Series B Bond into Common Stock up to a principal amount equal to 8% of the original principal amount (plus any accrued and unpaid interest outstanding on the debenture) at a conversion price per share equal to 75% of the average of the 20 VWAPs of the Common Stock immediately prior to the applicable default conversion date until the earlier of: (A) the Event of Default is cured to the satisfaction of the holder, (B) the Series B Bond is paid off in full or (C) the Series B Bond is converted in full. The holder shall have the right to submit additional default conversion notices until the debenture is no longer outstanding, provided that the holder may not submit more than one such notice per 30-day period. In the event the Company fails to deliver the shares of Common Stock within five (5) days of receiving the default conversion notice, the Company may be subject to additional cash penalty payments to the Series B Bond holders.
In addition to the Series B Bonds, each Purchaser of the Series B Bonds received 5,000 shares (the “Equity Consideration”) of Common Stock for each $50,000 principal amount of Series B Bond investment. Accordingly, the Company issued an aggregate of 88,150 shares of Common Stock to the Purchasers. The issuance of the Series B Bonds and Equity Consideration qualified for exemption under Rule 506(b) promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of these securities by the Company did not involve a “public offering” and was made only to accredited investors.
The Placement Agent is entitled to: (i) a fee in cash of $79,335.00, nine percent (9%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this Offering, plus reimbursement of certain expense, (ii) 5,289 shares of Common Stock equal to six percent (6%) of the Equity Consideration issued in connection with the funds raised in this Offering, and (iii) a three-year warrant (a “Placement Agent Warrant”), exercisable at $2.00 per share, to purchase 26,445 shares of Common Stock with such exercise price subject to certain adjustments. The issuance is exempt under rule 506(b) promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
