Re: Subscription Agreement
Dear Sirs:
The undersigned (the "Subscriber") hereby subscribes for the number of
Units (the "Units"), each Unit consisting of (a) 25,000 shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Series A Preferred
Stock"), of Xxxxxxxx Consulting Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), (b) warrants to purchase 85,100 shares of common stock, par value
$0.0001, per share ("Common Stock") of the Company at an exercise price of $1.10
per share and (c) warrants to purchase 85,100 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $1.65 per share (collectively, the "Warrants") as are set
forth on the signature page of this Agreement, at a purchase price shall be
$250,000 per Unit. The total purchase price for the Units is set forth on the
signature page of this Agreement. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
Warrants comprising the Units and the shares of common stock, par value $.0001
per share ("Common Stock"), issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock and Warrants (the "Conversion Shares") are referred to collectively as the
"Securities."
1. (a) The Company is offering 47 Units, on a "best efforts, all or none"
basis to accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"). All proceeds from the sale of the Units will
be held in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement (the "Escrow Agreement")
between the Company and the Esanu Katsky Xxxxxx & Siger, LLP, as Escrow Agent
(the "Escrow Agent"), until the Escrow Agent shall have cleared funds in the
escrow account of $11,750,000, representing the proceeds from the sale of the 47
Units, at which time the proceeds from the sale of the Units shall, on notice
from the Company, be paid to the Company. Subject to Section 1(f) of this
Agreement, if there is not $11,750,000 in cleared funds by the last day of the
Subscription Period, the funds will be returned to the Subscriber without
interest or deduction. Any interest will be paid to the Company. The date on
which the proceeds from the sale of the Units purchased by the Subscriber are
paid to the Company is referred to as the "Closing Date."
(b) The minimum subscription is one Unit for a purchase price of $250,000
per Unit; however, the Company reserves the right to accept subscriptions for
partial Units; provided, however, that in no event will fractional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock or Warrants to purchase fractional shares be issued.
-1-
(c) The Subscription Period is the period ending on December 31, 2005,
which may be extended by the Company on one or more occasions, for a maximum of
45 additional days.
(d) The Subscriber understands and agrees that, after the Company's
receipt of this Agreement, the Company will review the Subscriber's eligibility
and will determine whether to accept or reject this subscription in whole or in
part. The Company may determine to reject this subscription in whole or in part
in its sole and absolute discretion. In making such determination, the Company
may request, and the Subscriber agrees to provide, additional financial and
other information about the Subscriber. If this subscription is accepted in
whole, then the Company will issue the Units subscribed for to the Subscriber.
If this subscription is rejected in whole, this Agreement and any other
subscription materials will be promptly returned to the Subscriber and the
Subscriber's subscription payment will be refunded to the Subscriber without
interest. In that event, the Subscriber and the Company will have no further
rights or claims against each other by virtue of this Agreement. If this
subscription is accepted in part and rejected in part, the Company is authorized
to amend this Agreement to reflect the number of Units for which this
subscription is accepted, and the Company will issue the Units as to which this
subscription is accepted as if this subscription had been accepted in whole.
(e) The Company will pay a brokerage fee to any brokers that introduce
investors to it of not more than 10% of the proceeds raised, and the Company may
pay a non-accountable expense allowance of not more than 3% of the proceeds. The
Company may also issue warrants to purchase, in the aggregate, not more than 9%
of the number of shares which are issuable upon conversion of the preferred
stock purchased by all subscribers. The terms of the warrants to be issued to
the brokers or finders is set forth in Exhibit A to the PPM, as defined in
Section 3(a) of this Agreement.
(f) If a broker deposits the amount of an investor's purchase price net of
the commission and non-accountable expense allowance payable to the broker, for
purposes of determining whether the escrow agent has received $11,750,000, the
escrow agent shall be deemed to have received the gross proceeds from the sale
of those units, and no further commission or non-accountable expense allowance
will be paid to the broker with respect to those units if the Escrow Agent
receives written notice from the Company and the broker, if necessary, setting
forth the gross purchase price and the net purchase price, which shall not be
less than 87% of the gross purchase price and confirming that no cash commission
will be payable with respect to such Units. The Subscriber and the Company
understand that in any purchase where the Escrow Agent receives the purchase
price net of the broker's commission and non-accountable expense allowance, the
purchaser of the Units will pay less for the Units than the purchase price set
forth in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement and the price paid for the
Units by the purchaser may be equal to the net purchase price.
2. The Company represents and warrants to the Subscriber that the issuance
of the Series A Preferred Stock and the issuance of the shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and exercise of the
Warrants have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance and when issued
pursuant to this Agreement upon payment of the purchase price of the Units or
upon the conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the
Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and that
-2-
the Warrants, when issued pursuant to this Agreement, will constitute the valid,
binding and enforceable obligation of the Company; subject, in each case, to
approval by the Company's stockholders of an amendment to the Company's
certificate of incorporation increasing its authorized Common Stock as described
in the PPM.
3. The Subscriber hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as
