EXHIBIT 10.1
CONVERTIBLE NOTE REDEMPTION OPTION AGREEMENT
This CONVERTIBLE NOTE REDEMPTION OPTION AGREEMENT (the
"AGREEMENT") dated as of February 5, 2002 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") is entered into
by and among E Com Ventures, Inc., a Florida corporation, with headquarters
located at 11701 N.W. 101st Road, Miami, Florida 33178 (the "COMPANY"), and the
undersigned (on the signature pages hereto) designated as "Holders of
Convertible Notes" (each individually, a "HOLDER" and collectively, the
"HOLDERS").
WHEREAS:
A. Prior to the date hereof, the Company has issued to the
Holders the Company's Series C Convertible Notes on March 9, 2000 and Series D
Convertible Notes on March 27, 2000 (collectively, the "NOTES"); and
B. The Company desires to have the option to redeem the Notes,
and the Holders desire to allow the Company to have the option to redeem the
Notes, upon the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual
covenants and agreements contained herein and of other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. REDEMPTION OF NOTES
a. Scheduled Redemption. In the event that the Company
elects to redeem a portion of the Notes in accordance with Section 1(b)
below, on or prior to each Redemption Date (as set forth in Schedule 1
attached hereto) the Company shall pay to the Holders, in aggregate,
the Redemption Amount corresponding to such Redemption Date as set
forth in Schedule 1 and any Redemption Amount corresponding to any
previous Redemption Date (as set forth on Schedule 1) on which the
Company failed to pay the applicable Redemption Amount or on which the
Company did not previously elect to redeem. If the Company has elected
to redeem a portion of the Notes in accordance with Section 1(b) below,
on the applicable Redemption Date, each Holder shall receive from the
Company that Redemption Amount designated for such Holder on Schedule 1
for such applicable Redemption Date and any Redemption Amount
corresponding to any previous Redemption Date (as set forth on Schedule
1) on which the Company failed to pay the applicable Redemption Amount
or on which the Company did not previously elect to redeem. (Schedule 2
sets forth the components of each Holder's portion of the Redemption
Amount on the applicable Redemption Date as applied to all Notes held
by each Holder.) Each Holder's portion of each Redemption Amount on
each Redemption Date shall consist of (x) the principal redeemed for
each of such Holder's Notes (as set forth on Schedule 2) on such
Redemption Date and (y) the additional amount for each of such Holder's
Notes (as set forth on Schedule 2) as of such Redemption Date
determined by multiplying twenty percent (20%) by the principal
redeemed for each of
1
such Holder's Notes (as set forth on Schedule 2) on such Redemption
Date. Interest and, if applicable, Default Interest (as defined in each
Note) on each Note shall continue to be calculated and paid in
accordance with each such Note.
b. Mechanics of Redemption.
i. Notice. In the event that the Company elects
to redeem a portion of the Notes corresponding to such Redemption Date
and any portion of Notes corresponding to any previous Redemption Date
in which the applicable Redemption Amount was not paid by the Company
to the Holders, the Company shall deliver written notice, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "NOTICE OF REDEMPTION"), via facsimile
to each Holder no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day (defined
below) prior to the applicable Redemption Date. Each Notice of
Redemption sent by the Company to each Holder shall indicate (i) the
aggregate Redemption Amounts to be paid by the Company to the Holders,
(ii) each Holder's pro rata share of each Redemption Amount paid on
such Redemption Date and (iii) for each series of such Holder's Notes
(A) the principal balance of Notes being redeemed, (B) the additional
amount being paid and (C) the principal balance remaining after such
payment. In the event that the Company fails to provide each Holder
with the requisite written notice (in the form of Exhibit A) prior to
or on the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to any Redemption Date, such
failure shall be deemed to be constructive notice by the Company to all
Holders that the Company has elected not to redeem the portion of the
Notes corresponding to such Redemption Date (each, a "NOTICE FAILURE").
ii. Payment of Redemption Amount. On or prior to
the applicable Redemption Date, if the Company has properly elected to
redeem a portion of the Notes in accordance with Section 1(b) above,
the Company shall pay to each Holder such Holder's portion of the
applicable Redemption Amount (as set forth on Schedule 1) and any
Redemption Amount corresponding to any previous Redemption Date (as set
forth on Schedule 1) on which the Company failed to pay the applicable
Redemption Amount or on which the Company did not previously elect to
redeem. If the Company has properly elected to redeem a portion of the
Notes and the Company fails to make full payment of the aggregate
Redemption Amounts payable on the applicable Redemption Date, then (i)
the Company shall pay to the Holders, on a pro rata basis (determined
by dividing the outstanding principal balance of all Notes held by such
Holder by the outstanding principal balance of all Notes held by all
Holders), on the Redemption Date any funds that the Company reasonably
determines are available, (ii) the Company shall use its best efforts
to promptly pay to the Holders any due but unpaid Redemption Amount and
(iii) the provisions of Section 1(c) below shall be applicable.
iii. Disputes; Miscellaneous. In the event of a
dispute as to any determination or calculation described in this
Agreement, the applicable Holders and the Company shall use their best
efforts to resolve such dispute within three (3) Business Days. If such
Holders and the Company are unable to resolve such dispute within three
(3) Business Days, then the Company shall within two (2) Business Days
submit each of their calculations to an independent, reputable
accounting firm selected by such Holders and consented to by the
Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). The Company
shall use its
2
reasonable best efforts to cause the accountant to perform the
determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holders
of the results no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the
date it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such
accountant's determination or calculation shall be binding upon such
parties absent manifest error. The Company shall be liable for all
costs and expenses related to such determination or calculation if (A)
the absolute value of the difference between (1) the accountant's
determination or calculation and (2) the Company's determination or
calculation is equal to or greater than (B) the absolute value of the
difference between (1) the accountant's determination or calculation
and (2) the applicable Holder's determination or calculation;
otherwise, such costs and expenses shall be paid by such Holder.
iv. General Payment Provisions. All payments
made by the Company under this Agreement shall be made in lawful money
of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to such accounts as the Holders may from time to time
designate by written notice to the Company in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable Notes. Whenever any amount expressed to be
due by the terms of this Agreement is due on any day which is not a
Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day
which is a Business Day. For purposes of this Agreement, "BUSINESS DAY"
shall mean any day in which the Nasdaq National Market is open for
business.
c. Redemption Failure. In the event that (i) the Company
fails to make full payment of any Redemption Amount by the applicable
Redemption Date or (ii) the Company materially breaches any
representation, warranty, covenant or other term or condition of this
Agreement or any Note, including without limitation the failure to pay
fully when due any accrued but unpaid interest on any Note or (iii) a
Notice Failure has occurred (each, a "REDEMPTION FAILURE"), then during
the period commencing on the Business Day on which such Redemption
Failure occurred and ending on the Business Day on which the Company
fully cures such Redemption Failure (and for purposes of this Agreement
in the event that the Company has caused a Notice Failure, the Company
may only cure such Notice Failure by providing proper written notice
(in the form of Exhibit A) to each Holder for a subsequent Redemption
Date pursuant to the requirements set forth in Section 1(b)) (a
"REDEMPTION FAILURE PERIOD") the additional conversion restrictions and
conversion limitations described in Section 3(b)(i) below shall not be
applicable to any of the Holders or Notes and shall be of no force and
effect. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Redemption
Failure (other than a violation of any Note which constitutes an Event
of Default, as such term is defined in the Notes) does not constitute
an Event of Default, as such term is defined in the Notes.
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

corporation duly organized and validly existing in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, and has the

c. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by the Company, the performance by the Company of its
obligations under this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of
the transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation
of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, any outstanding series of

which the Company is a party, or result in a violation of any law,

4

condition, that would be required to be disclosed by the Company under
applicable federal and state securities laws on a registration

not publicly been announced.

Holder as described in this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction, at or

written notice thereof:

remedies available to the Holders under the Notes. Interest on the
unpaid principal balance of the Notes and Default Interest, if any,
shall accrue and shall be paid in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Notes. (The parties acknowledge, assuming that the
Company timely pays all Redemption Amounts set forth on Schedule 1 to
the Holders, that Schedule 3 sets forth the interest payments and
interest payment dates required to be paid by the Company to the
Holders pursuant to the applicable Notes.) The rights and remedies
provided in this Agreement shall be cumulative and in addition to all
other rights and remedies available under the Notes, at law or in

compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing
herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages for any
failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
b. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation,
Merger or Sale. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification,

entity, or any other transaction which is effected in such a way that
holders of Company common stock are entitled to receive (either
directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets
with respect to or in exchange for Company common stock is referred to
herein as "ORGANIC CHANGE." Prior to the consummation of any Organic
Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the
Company will secure from the person or entity purchasing such assets or
Company common stock or the successor resulting from such Organic
Change a written agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to
Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal balance of the
Notes) to assume all obligations and duties of the Company contained in
this Agreement.
c. Indemnification. In consideration of each Holder's
execution and delivery of this Agreement and in addition to all of the
Company's other obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall
defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and all of
their shareholders, officers, directors, employees and direct or
indirect investors and any of the foregoing person's agents or other
representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement)
(collectively, the "INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all actions,
causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees,
liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith
(irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action
for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "INDEMNIFIED
LIABILITIES"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising
out of, or relating to (a) any material misrepresentation or breach of
any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or
any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or
thereby or (b) any material breach of any covenant, agreement or
obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement or any other
certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby. To
the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be
unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum
contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified
Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
d. Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs.
If (i) this Agreement and applicable Notes are placed in the hands of
an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced
through any legal proceeding, (ii) an attorney is retained to represent
a Holder in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other
proceedings affecting creditors' rights and involving a claim under
this Agreement, or (iii) an attorney is retained to represent a Holder
in connection with any proceeding against the Holder for breach of
fiduciary duty in connection with this Agreement, then the Company
shall pay to the Holder all reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
expenses incurred in connection therewith, in addition to all other
amounts due hereunder.
7
e. Restriction on Redemption and Dividends. Until all of
the Company's payment obligations have been fully satisfied as provided
herein, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem, or
declare or pay any dividend (whether in cash, stock or other property
or in connection with any spin off) or distribution on, its capital
stock without the prior express written consent of Holders of not less
than two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding principal balance of the
Notes. In the event the Holders consent to such redemption, dividend or
distribution, then the Holders on the record date for such redemption,
dividend or distribution shall be entitled to receive on the date of
redemption, payment or distribution of such dividend or other
distribution the amount of cash or property equal to the cash or
property which would be received by the Holders in the event the
Holders owned the number of shares of Company common stock into which
the Notes would be convertible pursuant to the terms of the Notes
immediately prior to such record date without regard to any conversion
limitations or conversion restrictions included in this Agreement or
the applicable Notes.
f. No Amendment of Notes. This Agreement shall not be
construed in any manner as an amendment or modification to the terms
and provisions of the Notes.
g. Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals portion of
this Agreement is expressly incorporated into and made a part of this

of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Miami, for the
adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with
any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby
irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is
brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action
or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in any
such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party
at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees
that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of
process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by
law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND
AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE
HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege
preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power
or privilege.
k. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two
or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one
and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts
have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party;
provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution
and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and
effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.
l. Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for
convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the
interpretation of, this Agreement.
m. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity
or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or
enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction.
n. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement
supersedes all other prior oral agreements between the Holders, the
Company, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with
respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement and the
instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the
parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and,
except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company
nor any Holder makes any representation, warranty, covenant or
undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this
Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed
by the Company and Holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the

be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party
against whom enforcement is sought.

is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the
sending party); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a
nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly
addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile
numbers for such communications shall be the same as the information
included in the transaction documents concerning the Notes.
9
p. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their
respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the
Notes. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Holders of
at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding principal balance of the
Notes. A Holder may assign some or all of its rights hereunder without
the consent of the Company, provided, however, that any such assignment
shall not release such Holder from its obligations hereunder unless
such obligations are assumed by such assignee and the Company has
consented to such assignment and assumption.
q. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is
intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor
may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.
r. Survival. The agreements and covenants set forth in
Sections 1, 3 and 5 shall survive the Effective Date. Each Holder shall
be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements
and covenants hereunder.
s. Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform,
or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things,
and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates,
instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in
order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required
to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee,
receiver or any other person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not
occurred.
u. Termination. Except for the terms and provisions of
Sections 1, 5(c) and 5(d), the terms and provisions of this Agreement
shall terminate on the first (1st) Business Day following the last
