Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
Debenture Closing, August, 2011
On August 12, 2011, NeoMedia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), issued and sold a secured convertible debenture in the amount of $350,000 (the “August Debenture”) to YA Global Investments, L.P. (the “Buyer”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein. The August Debenture was issued in accordance with the provisions of that certain Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company and the Buyer dated June 28, 2011, which is incorporated by reference herein and attached by reference hereto as Exhibit 10.2. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Buyer three secured convertible debentures (collectively, the “Debentures”) that, combined, have an aggregate principal amount of $1,050,000. Regarding each of the individual Debentures, the Company agreed to issue and sell (i) a secured convertible debenture in the amount of $250,000 (the “June Debenture”) which the Buyer purchased and the Company issued on June 28, 2011, which is incorporated by reference herein and attached by reference hereto as Exhibit 10.3, (ii) a secured convertible debenture in the amount of $450,000 (the “July Debenture”) which the Buyer purchased and the Company issued on July 13, 2011, which is incorporated by reference herein and attached by reference hereto as Exhibit 10.4, and (iii) the August Debenture.
The August Debenture shall mature on July 29, 2012 (the “Maturity Date”) and shall accrue interest at a rate equal to fourteen percent (14%) per annum and such interest shall be paid on the Maturity Date (or sooner as provided in the August Debenture) in cash or, provided that certain Equity Conditions are satisfied (as such term is defined in the August Debenture), in shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) at the applicable Conversion Price (as defined in the August Debenture). At any time, the Buyer shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and accrued interest thereon into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the lesser of $0.10 and ninety-five percent (95%) of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the sixty (60) trading days immediately preceding each conversion date.
The Company shall not affect any conversion, and the Buyer shall not have the right to convert any portion of the August Debenture to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Buyer (together with the Buyer’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion, except for not less than sixty-five (65) days prior written notice from the Buyer.
The Company shall have the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding (subject to certain conditions) in the August Debenture via Optional Redemption (as defined in the August Debenture) by paying the amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a redemption premium equal to ten percent (10%) of the principal amount being redeemed, and accrued interest.
The August Debenture is secured by certain pledges made with respect to the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the Eleventh Ratification Agreement, dated June 28, 2011 (the “Ratification Agreement”), and that certain Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) and Patent Security Agreement (the “Patent Security Agreement”) both dated July 29, 2008, by and among the Company, each of the Company’s subsidiaries made a party thereto, and the Buyer. Copies of the Ratification Agreement, Security Agreement and the Patent Security Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and attached by reference hereto as Exhibits 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7, respectively.
In connection with the Agreement, the Company also entered into those certain Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (the “ITAI”) with the Buyer, an escrow agent and WorldWide Stock Transfer, LLC, the Company’s transfer agent, incorporated by reference herein and attached by reference hereto as Exhibit 10.8.
The foregoing descriptions of the August Debenture, Agreement, June Debenture, July Debenture, Ratification Agreement, Security Agreement, Patent Security Agreement and ITAI do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such documents, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, and 10.8, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
