SECTION 1 - REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On July 19, 2006, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a group of eight (8) accredited investors (“Holders or Purchasers”), in connection with our offering (the “Offering”) of senior subordinated secured convertible term notes (the “Notes”) and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock (the “Warrants). Pursuant to the Offering, the Holders agreed to provide us with funding in the aggregate amount of $830,000 (the “Facility”). This is the first closing of an anticipated total facility of $1,800,000 to be funded in the near future. The term of the Facility is thirty (30) months and shall accrue interest on the unpaid principal and interest at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time, plus four percent (4%) or fourteen percent (14%), whichever is greater. We will begin paying monthly payments of accrued interest plus the principle payment which is amortized over 28 months beginning October 1, 2006, and each consecutive calendar month thereafter until January 1, 2009. The funds will be used for working capital to deploy our e-banking kiosks. We have an option to repay each monthly payment in cash or stock. If we pay in stock, we will pay the Holder an amount equal to 100% of the then monthly amount due with common stock valued at 85% of the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the ten days prior to the repayment date. Subject to certain provisions, the Holder has a right at any time to convert any of the outstanding monthly payments due into common stock of the Company at the initial rate of fourteen cents ($.14) per share. Each Holder received a Warrant to purchase an additional share for each three shares under the conversion rights at an initial exercise price of nineteen cents ($.19) per share.
In connection with the Offering, we paid Sloan Securities Corp., as placement agent, approximately $112,696, comprised of sales commissions of $83,000 and reimbursement of $29,706 in due diligence, legal and documentation expenses. Sloan Securities Corp. is entitled to placement agent warrants, with terms identical to those contained in the Warrants, to purchase that number of shares equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate amount of shares of our common stock initially issuable upon conversion of Notes issued at each Closing, with an exercise price of fourteen cents ($.14) per share (the “Placement Agent Warrants”).
Note Maturity Date and Interest Rate. In connection with the Facility, we executed in favor of Holders Notes in the principal amount of $830,000. Absent earlier redemption by our company, the Notes mature on January 1, 2009. Interest will accrue on the unpaid principal and interest on the Notes at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time, plus four percent (4%).
Payment of Interest and Principal. Interest on borrowings under the Notes is payable monthly on the first day of each month during the term of the Notes, commencing on October 1, 2006. All outstanding principal amounts must be paid on January 1, 2009.
Security Agreement. The Notes are secured by a blanket lien on substantially all of the assets of our company and our subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) and further guaranteed by our subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”). In addition, we have pledged our ownership interests a portion of the stock owned by our Chief Executive Officer according to a stock pledge agreement (the “Stock Pledge Agreement”) executed by us in favor of Holders to cover our obligations under the Notes. If an event of default occurs under any of the Security Agreement, the Warrants, the Stock Pledge Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty, the Registration Rights Agreement (as herein defined), or the Notes (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”), Holders have the right to accelerate payments under the Notes and, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to foreclose upon the assets securing the Notes. If an event of default occurs under any of the Transaction Documents, one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest and fees, will become immediately due and payable. Holders shall also be entitled to payment of a default interest rate of two percent (2%) per month on all amounts due and such other remedies specified in the Transaction Documents and under the Uniform Commercial Code. Such events of default include, without limitation, the following:
2
o | a failure to make payments of principal and interest under the Notes within three (3) days of when due; | |
o | a breach by us of any material representation, warranty or statement contained in any of the Transaction Documents (that is not cured within the stated cure period); | |
o | the filing of any money judgment or similar final process against us for more than $50,000, which remains unvacated, unstayed or unbonded for a period of thirty (30) days; |
o | if we make an assignment for the benefit of our creditors, or a receiver or trustee is appointed for us, or any form of bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is instituted by us, or any involuntary proceeding is instituted against us if not vacated within thirty (30) days; | |
o | if our Common Stock is suspended for five (5) consecutive days or for five (5) days during a ten (10) day consecutive period from a principal market or pursuant to a stop order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); and |
o | a failure by us to timely deliver shares of our Common Stock to Holders when due upon exercise of the Warrants. |
In addition, the Purchase Agreement contains certain negative covenants that require us to obtain the prior written consent or other actions of Holders in order for us to take certain actions at any time when borrowings remain outstanding under the Facility. These negative covenants include, without limitation, restrictions on our ability to:
o | incur or assume indebtedness (exclusive of trade debt); | |
o | guarantee or assume any liability in connection with any obligations of another person or entity (except on behalf of its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business); |
o | pay or make any dividend or distribution on any class of our capital stock or the capital stock of any subsidiaries or issue any preferred stock; and | |
o | enter into any merger, consolidation or reorganization, with limited exceptions. |
Warrants. We issued Warrants entitling Holders to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,976,191 shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an initial exercise price of nineteen cents ($.19) per share (subject to applicable adjustments) (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants expire on July 20, 2011.
Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement between Holders and our company (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), we are obligated to file a registration statement on Form SB-2 or S-3 to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable under (i) upon conversion of the Notes, (ii) upon exercise of the Warrants, (iii) upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants, and (iv) as a result of adjustments made to the conversion price of the Notes or the Exercise Price of the Warrants. With respect to the registration statement required to be filed in connection with the conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants (the “Original Registration Statement”), we are required to file the Original Registration Statement on or prior to sixty (60) days after the last closing of the Offering and to use our best efforts to have the Original Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as promptly as possible after filing, but in no event later than 180 days after filing of the Original Registration Statement with the SEC. In the event of clause (iv) set forth above, we are required to file such registration statement (the “Additional Registration Statement”) within thirty (30) days of (i) such event resulting in the adjustment of the Exercise Price or (ii) the actual date of the adjustment of the Exercise Price. Each such Additional Registration Statement shall be declared effective within thirty (30) days following the applicable filing date of such Additional Registration Statement. We are obligated to use our reasonable commercial efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Original Registration Statement and any Additional Registration Statement until the earliest of the date on which (i) all shares registered thereunder have been sold or (ii) all shares registered thereunder may be sold immediately without registration under the Act and without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) (as determined by a our counsel pursuant to a written opinion letter).
