Securities Purchase Agreement –Closing of Sale of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants
On September 6, 2005, Remote Dynamics, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that on September 2, 2005 it had closed the transactions contemplated by a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with SDS Capital Group SPC, Ltd. (the “Institutional Investor”) on September 2, 2005 for the sale of $6.5 million of convertible preferred stock and common stock purchase warrants in a private placement transaction, following approval of its stockholders at its August 31, 2005 annual meeting. The SPA, dated May 31, 2005, is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was issued to the Institutional Investor pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Regulation D promulgated thereunder on the basis of this offering and sale being to only one institutional investor.
The Company received a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in the form of $5 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by SDS, which was exchanged for the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, resulting in a cash proceeds to the Company of $750,000 (resulting in net proceeds to the company of approximately $575,000 after deduction of brokers’ commissions, accrued interest on the bridge note and other expenses) from the sale of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible to common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at a conversion price of $1.55 per share of Common Stock. The Institutional Investor also received a common stock purchase warrant with a 5-year term to purchase 2 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share (the “Series B Warrant”), pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Warrant Agreement, dated September 2, 2005 filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Form 8-K.
As per the terms of the sale of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Institutional Investor has as-converted voting rights limited to 9.99% of the outstanding common stock of the company. Additionally, the Institutional Investor is prohibited from converting the preferred stock to common nor exercising the warrants to the extent that such conversions or exercises would result in the Institutional Investor beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. The Institutional Investor has the right to designate one voting director to the Company’s board of directors and one non-voting observation director.
In addition to the above pricing and number of the securities sold, the Securities Purchase Agreement also provides that the Company would use the proceeds from this offering only for general corporate purposes and working capital. The Company further agreed to (i) timely file with SEC all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (ii) reserve 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of the warrants described below, (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, and (iv) not redeem, repurchase or declare or pay and cash dividend on any shares of capital stock. The Company further granted the investor the right to participate in the future issuance of equity or equity-linked securities of the Company for a period of 12 months after the closing of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issuance. The Company also agreed to indemnify the Institutional Investor from damages it incurs (A) as a result of any breach of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement or in the related transaction documents by the Company or (B) as a result of a cause of action brought by a third-party resulting from (1) the execution of the transaction documents, (2) any transaction financed by the use of proceeds or (3) the status of the investor as a holder of the Company’s securities.

The Series B Preferred Stock bears a dividend at eight percent (8%) per annum as to each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock, which rate shall automatically decrease to three percent (3%) per annum on September 1, 2006 and ends on the earlier of (1) August 31, 2008 or (2) the date such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are fully converted or fully redeemed.

In no event would the holder of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (or warrants discussed below) have the right to convert shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock or to dispose of any shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the extent that such right to effect such conversion or disposition would result in the holder and its affiliates together beneficially owning or having the power to vote more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the issuance of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series B Warrant, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Institutional Investor whereby the Company granted certain rights to Institutional Investor. A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3. Within 30 days of the Closing, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement on Form S-3 covering 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock that the Institutional Investor may acquire upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or exercise of the Series B Warrants or the Bridge Note Warrants. The Company would face a liquidated damages claim by the Institutional Investor if: (i) the initial registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the 120th day after the Closing, (ii) after the effectiveness of the registration statement, sales of Common Stock cannot be made by the Institutional Investor due to a stop order by the SEC or the Company’s need to update the registration statement, or (iii) the Common Stock is not listed on Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Market. The liquidated damages for the first 30 days would equal 3% of the purchase price of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and equal 1.5% for each 30 days thereafter of non-compliance. In addition to the liquidated damaged provision discussed above, the Institutional Investor would require the redemption of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in certain default events.
The Institutional Investor also has the right to piggy-back on to the registration statements filed by the Company registering Common Stock (other than Form S-8 and Form S-4 registration statements filed by the Company), subject to cut-back by the underwriters (if an underwritten public offering) but provided that at least 25% of the shares requested for inclusion in the registration statement shall be included in such underwritten public offering.
Exchange of Bridge Note & Security Agreement into for Warrants and Termination of Lien
In connection with the sale of Series B preferred stock, the Company, on May 31, 2005, had issued a bridge note to the Institutional Investor in the original principal amount of $1.75 million, which Bridge Note is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this Form 8-K (the “Bridge Note”). The Bridge Note accrued interest at 8% per annum and was due and payable on Sept. 30, 2005. The Bridge Note was secured by a first lien on all of the assets of the Company pursuant to that certain Security Agreement by and between the Institutional Investor and the Company dated May 31, 2005, which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Form 8-K. Following approval by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting, the Bridge Note was extinguished and exchanged for two 5-year common stock purchase warrants: one to purchase 1,666,667 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a second common stock purchase warrant to purchase 700,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Warrants, dated as of September 2, 2005, and filed as Exhibits 10.6 and 10.7 to this Form 8-K.
Dilutive Issuance Anti-Dilution Provisions. Each Exchange Warrant contains standard anti-dilution provisions that require a proportional adjustment to the exercise price for the warrant in the event that the number of outstanding shares of our common stock is increased by a stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification or similar event. In the event there is a pro rata distribution of assets or stock to the Company’s common stockholders, then the holder of the warrant shall be entitled to receive a pro rata share of such assets or stock as if the warrant had been exercised in full.
Dilutive Issuance Protections; Formula for Adjustment Upon Dilutive Issuance.Each Exchange Warrant also contains certain anti-dilution price protections in the event of a dilutive stock issuance (in addition to anti-dilution protections for stock splits and other similar pro rata events). Each Exchange Warrant provides for adjustment to its exercise price if we issue or sell any shares of common stock for consideration per share less than the Exchange Warrant’s exercise price in effect on the date of such issuance or sale. Such transaction is referred to in this proxy statement as a dilutive issuance. In the event of a dilutive issuance, the warrants’ new adjusted exercise price is calculated by:
| (a) | | dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company upon the dilutive issuance by the warrants’ exercise price on the date of the dilutive issuance; |
|
| (b) | | adding the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the dilutive issuance to the result of clause (a); |
|
| (c) | | dividing the result of clause (b) by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding (after giving effect to the dilutive issuance) plus the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities convertible into common stock and the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the options, warrants or other rights to purchase or subscribe for shares of common stock or convertible securities; and |
|
| (d) | | multiplying the result of clause (c) by the warrants’ exercise price on the date of the dilutive issuance. |
Effect on Exercise Price
The calculation of each warrant’s adjusted exercise price is subject to the following:
Issuance of Purchase Rights. If the Company issues or sells any right to purchase shares of its common stock and the price per share is less than the warrants’ exercise price in effect on the date of issuance or sale of such purchase rights, the Exchange Warrants provide that the maximum total number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of all such purchase rights shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. The Exchange Warrants’ exercise price will not be further adjusted upon the actual issuance of such common stock.
Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company issues or sells any convertible securities and the price per share is less than the Exchange Warrants’ exercise price in effect on the date of issuance or sale of such convertible securities, the Exchange Warrants provide that the maximum total number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of all such convertible securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. The Exchange Warrants’ exercise price will not be further adjusted upon the actual issuance of such common stock.
Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If there is a change in (a) the amount of additional consideration payable upon the exercise of any purchase rights or the conversion, exercise or exchange of any convertible securities or (b) the rate at which any convertible securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock (other than to protect against dilution), the Exchange Warrants’ exercise price in effect at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the Exchange Warrants’ exercise price which would have been in effect at such time had such purchase rights or convertible securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion, exercise or exchange rate, as the case may be, at the time initially issued or sold.
Calculation of Consideration Received.The consideration received for any common stock, purchase rights or convertible securities issued or sold for cash shall be the amount received by the Company (after deduction of all underwriting discounts or allowances). The consideration received for any common stock, purchase rights or convertible securities issued or sold for any consideration other than cash shall be the fair market value of such consideration, unless the consideration is securities, in which case the consideration received will be its market price as of the date of receipt.
The consideration received for any common stock, purchase rights or convertible securities issued in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation shall be the fair market value of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation attributable to such common stock, purchase rights or convertible securities.
However, if common stock, purchase rights or convertible securities are issued or sold in conjunction with each other as part of a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, the holder of the Exchange Warrants may elect to determine the amount of consideration deemed received by the Company by deducting the fair value of any type of securities issued or sold in such transaction or series of transactions. If the holder of the Exchange Warrants makes this election, no adjustment to the exercise price shall be made for the issuance of the disregarded securities or upon any conversion, exercise or exchange thereof.
Issuances Pursuant to Existing Securities. Shares of common stock issued pursuant to any anti-dilution or similar adjustments (other than as a result of stock splits, stock dividends and the like) contained in any convertible securities or purchase rights shall be deemed issued for no consideration if they were (a) outstanding as of the date of the warrants but not disclosed to the Exchange Warrant holder on or before the closing of the Series B convertible preferred stock transaction or (b) disclosed to the warrant holder, but the number of shares that the Company issues exceeds the amount disclosed.
Exceptions to Adjustment of Exercise Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exchange Warrants’ exercise price shall not be adjusted upon:
| (a) | | the issuance under the warrants of common stock upon the exercise or conversion of any convertible securities or purchase rights outstanding the date of the warrants to be issued to the Institutional Investor; |
|
| (b) | | the grant of options to purchase common stock, with exercise prices not less than the market price of the common stock on the date of grant, which are issued to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company in order to solicit or retain their employment or service pursuant to any equity compensation plan in effect as of the date of the warrants and the issuance of shares of common stock upon the exercise thereof including the 2005 Amended & Restated Equity Incentive Plan; |
| (c) | | conversion of the Series B convertible preferred stock or exercise of the warrants; or |
|
| (d) | | the issuance of securities in connection with strategic business partnerships or joint ventures not intended to raise additional capital. |
Adjustment in Number of Shares. If the exercise price is adjusted as set forth above, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Exchange Warrants at such exercise price shall be adjusted by (a) multiplying the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Exchange Warrant at such exercise price and (b) dividing that number by the adjusted exercise price.
Upon final closing of the Series B issuance, the company received net proceeds of $750,000 (resulting in net proceeds to the company of approximately $575,000 after deduction of brokers’ commissions, accrued interest on the bridge note and other expenses). The company had previously received $1.75 million from the May 31, 2005 bridge note. The company intends to use the net proceeds from the financing transaction to fund its business plan. A copy of the press release announcing the closing of the above transactions is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
