Exhibit 10.3
AMENDMENT NO. 1
TO
This
AMENDMENT NO. 1 dated
July 29, 2010 (this “Amendment”) to the Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement dated May 6, 2010 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and
among MF + P ACQUISITION
CO., a Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser"), INTEGRATED MEDIA SOLUTIONS,
LLC, a New York limited liability company ("IMS Holdco"), XXXXXX XXXXXX ("Xxxxxx"), XXXXXXX DU MONT ("Xxxxxxx") and, XXX XXXXXXX ("Xxx"; and together with Xxxxxx
and Xxxxxxx, individually a "Principal" and collectively,
the "Principals").
WITNESSETH :
WHEREAS, pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser purchased all of IMS Holdco’s Class A Units
(the “Purchased
Interests”) in the Company, representing a 75% equity interest in the
Company;
WHEREAS, the parties hereto
desire to amend the Purchase Agreement as hereinafter set forth and agree to
certain other matters contained herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this
Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree
as follows:
1. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms
in the Purchase Agreement.
2. Section
2.1.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated as
follows:
“(c) Top-Up Payments. The
Purchaser shall pay to IMS Holdco the following top-up payments (the "Top-Up
Payments"):
(i) Provided that the
Company achieves Xxxxxxxx (as defined below) for 2010 of not less than
$10,000,000, on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing, the Purchaser
shall pay (the “Initial Top-Up
Payment”) to IMS Holdco an amount equal to $3,533,333 (the "Initial Top-Up Amount"); provided, however, in the event
that on or before December 31, 2010 changes in United States federal long-term
capital gains tax rates are enacted, which will result in an increase in 2011
federal long-term capital gains rates over 2010 federal long-term capital gains
rates (the difference between such rates being referred to herein as the "LTG Rate Increase"), then, at
the election of IMS Holdco (which election must be made by IMS Holdco in writing
and received by the Purchaser no later than December 20, 2010), such payment
shall be made on or prior to December 31, 2010, provided (A) the Purchaser can
determine to its satisfaction that Xxxxxxxx for 2010 will be at least
$10,000,000 and (B) that the Initial Top-Up Amount shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the product of (x) the Initial Top-Up Amount times (y) ½ of the LTG
Rate Increase. By way of example, if 2011 federal long-term capital
gains rates are increased from 15% to 25%, then the LTG Rate Increase shall be
equal to 10%, and, if a payment prior to December 31, 2010 is elected by IMS
Holdco, the Initial Top-Up Amount shall be reduced by 5%;
(ii) Provided
that the Company achieves Xxxxxxxx for 2011 of not less than $10,000,000, or
aggregate Xxxxxxxx for 2010 and 2011 of not less than $20,000,000, on or prior
to the second anniversary of the Closing, an amount equal to $3,733,333 (the
“Second Top-Up
Payment”);
(iii) Provided that
the Company achieves Xxxxxxxx for 2012 of not less than $10,000,000 or aggregate
Xxxxxxxx for 2010, 2011 and 2012 of not less than $30,000,000, on or prior to
the third anniversary of the Closing, an amount equal to $3,933,334 (the “Third Top-Up
Payment”).
In the event that aggregate Xxxxxxxx for 2010 and 2011 shall be at least $20,000,000, but the Initial Top-Up Payment shall not have been earned based on 2010 Xxxxxxxx, IMS Holdco shall be entitled to receive the Initial Top-Up Payment at the time the Second Top-Up Payment is paid. In the event that aggregate Xxxxxxxx for 2010, 2011 and 2012 shall be at least $30,000,000, but either the Initial Top-Up Payment or the Second Top-Up Payment shall not have previously been earned, IMS Holdco shall be entitled to receive any such unpaid Initial Top-Up Payment or Second Top-Up Payment at the time the Third Top-Up Payment is paid. In no event shall the aggregate Top-Up Payments exceed $11,200,000. For purposes of this Section 2.1.1(c), “Xxxxxxxx” for any calendar year shall mean the total amount billed by the Company to its clients in respect of such calendar year.”
3. Section
2.1.1(l) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to add the phrase “the
Top-Up Payments,” immediately before the phrase “the Extra Payments” in the
second sentence of such Section.
4. As
used in the Purchase Agreement, the term “Agreement” shall mean the Purchase
Agreement, as from time to time amended (including, without limitation, this
Amendment). Except as set forth above, the Purchase Agreement, as
amended herein, shall remain in full force and force without further
modification.
5. This
Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, and each such counterpart
shall be deemed an original instrument, but all such counterparts taken together
shall constitute but one agreement. Facsimile signatures shall
constitute an original.
