Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Reference is made to various agreements entered into by the Company and further described under Item 3.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The disclosure contained in Item 3.02 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01, and such agreements have been filed as exhibits to this Report.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
Effective November 30, 2004, the Company restructured securities issued in its $10.0 million private placement transaction completed during March 2004 (the March Offering). In connection with the restructuring, the Company exchanged approximately 21.8 million shares of common stock and approximately 21.8 million warrants to purchase shares of common stock issued to the investors in the March Offering for 8% convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $11.1 million and four-year warrants to purchase approximately 27.8 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share, which is subject to anti-dilution adjustment. The principal amount of the convertible notes consist of the original $10.0 million investment plus approximately $1.1 million of accrued penalties associated with the delay in effectiveness of the Companys pending registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock held by the investors.
The 8% convertible notes mature in November 2006. The Company must make monthly payments of 102% of 1/20th of the initial principal amount, together with accrued interest. The Company will have the option to repay such amounts in shares of the Companys common stock at a conversion rate equal to 85% of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices of the Companys common stock during the 20 trading days preceding each payment date. The Company may prepay the outstanding principal amount by paying the holders of the notes 115% of the then-outstanding principal amount. Each holder of notes may convert the notes into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.20 per share, which is subject to anti-dilution adjustment. During the first 20 days following the closing date, the conversion price may be reduced to a price equal to 70% of the average of the five lowest closing prices of the Companys common stock during the 20 trading days preceding the closing date.
The Company has agreed to amend its pending registration statement to cover the resale of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes and issuable upon exercise of the warrants.
The Company exchanged the shares and warrants with the approximately 40 investors in reliance upon the exemptions provided by (a) Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) as securities exchanged by the issuer with its existing security holders exclusively where no commission or other remuneration is paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange; and (b) Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.
