Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 21, 2013 (“Grant Date”), Document Security Systems, Inc. (“Company”) issued Century Media Group Inc. (“Century Media”) a two year warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase up to 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.02 per share (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution protection for stock splits, reorganizations and the like. The Warrant vested on the Grant Date, and carries a term of two years commencing from the Grant Date.
The foregoing description is a summary only, does not purport to set forth the complete terms of the Warrant, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Warrant filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Warrant and Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (collectively, the “Securities”) have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were issued and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. These Securities may not be offered or sold by Century Media in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 21, 2013, in conjunction with the issuance of the above-described Warrant, the Company cancelled a warrant previously issued to Century Media on February 20, 2012 (the “February 2012 Warrant”). The February 2012 Warrant consisted of a 14-month, immediately vested warrant to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.02 per share, at exercise prices of $4.50, $4.75, $5.00, $5.25 and $6.00 for each 50,000 block of shares covered by the February 2012 Warrant. The February 2012 Warrant was issued as partial consideration for a one-year investor relations consulting agreement previously entered into between the Company and Century Media on February 20, 2012 (the “Century Media Consulting Agreement”). The Century Media Consulting agreement will automatically expire on its stated termination date of February 20, 2013.
