Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000
SFX Entertainment Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is hereby privately offering 500,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at an aggregate purchase price of $2,500,000 (the “Purchase Price”) to the undersigned, in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.
The Company will use the proceeds from this offering (this “Offering”) to fund its short-term working capital requirements in order to develop (initially through acquisitions) a live entertainment enterprise engaged in production and marketing of electronic dance music, live music, sporting, and other entertainment events around the world (the “Business”) and to pay expenses incurred in connection therewith. The Company, through the efforts of Xxxxxx F.X. Sillerman, its Chairman, has been negotiating with the owners of various companies in the Business for the acquisition of all or a portion of their businesses (such businesses, the “Targets”) and will use a portion of the proceeds of this Offering, together with additional funds anticipated to be raised, to acquire such Targets.
1. Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions of this subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”), the undersigned (including its permitted assignees (to the extent applicable), “Purchaser”) hereby agrees to be legally bound to purchase the Shares subscribed for hereunder, and upon written notice from the Company, subject to the terms of this Subscription Agreement, Purchaser and the Company shall hold a closing (the “Closing”) at which Purchaser shall fulfill its subscription by paying the Purchase Price by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company as consideration for the issuance by the Company of the Shares. Original certificates reflecting the Shares shall be provided to Purchaser following the Closing.
2. Conditions to Subscription. Subject to other applicable provisions of this Subscription Agreement (including without limitation Sections 5, 11, and 18 hereof), Purchaser understands and agrees that this subscription is made subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) This subscription shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company only when it is signed by the Company;
(b) Subscriber may not revoke, cancel or terminate this subscription unless the Company cancels or terminates the Offering; and
(c) Subscriber has executed and delivered this Subscription Agreement and hereby agrees to tender the Purchase Price at Closing in accordance with the terms hereof.
If this subscription is rejected by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion or because the Company terminates or cancels the Offering, this Subscription Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect.
3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company as of (i) the date Purchaser executes this Subscription Agreement and (ii) as of the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), as follows:
(a) (i) Purchaser has received and has read and fully understands this Subscription Agreement.
(ii) Purchaser or its advisor(s) have had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning the
Company and the Offering and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Purchaser.
(iii) No oral or written representations have been made other than as stated in this Subscription Agreement.
(iv) Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and business matters so as to enable it to utilize the information made available to it in connection with the Offering, to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and to make an informed decision with respect thereto; Purchaser acknowledges that there is a significant risk of loss of all or a portion of Purchaser’s investment in the Shares.
(v) Purchaser is not subscribing for the Shares pursuant to a general solicitation or general advertisement by the Company.
(b) Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a), as promulgated under the Securities Act, because Purchaser (i) had individual income (exclusive of any income attributable to Purchaser’s spouse) of more than $200,000 in each of the most recent two years or joint income with Purchaser’s spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of such years and reasonably expects to have income of at least the same level for the current year, or (ii) has an individual net worth, or a combined net worth with Purchaser’s spouse, in excess of $1,000,000. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “individual net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value, including personal property and real estate, cash, short-term investments, stock and securities, over total liabilities; provided, that the fair market value of such person’s primary residence is excluded from the calculation of net worth and, if the amount of the debt or other indebtedness secured by such person’s primary residence exceeds its fair market value, such excess liability must be deducted from such person’s net worth. Purchaser must also include as a liability any increase in the amount of debt secured by Purchaser’s primary residence incurred within 60 days prior to the date of Purchaser’s subscription hereunder unless such debt is incurred in connection with the acquisition of the primary residence.
(c) Purchaser’s overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not excessive in relation to its net worth.
(d) (A) Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement, (B) the execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Subscription Agreement and the performance by it of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary action of Purchaser, (C) this Subscription Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Purchaser and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser, and (D) this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforcement of remedies to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the relief of debtors.
(e) Purchaser acknowledges and understands that an investment in the Company will involve substantial risks. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the following list of risk factors does not purport to be a complete enumeration or explanation of the risks involved in an investment in the Company and additional risks or uncertainties may adversely affect the Company or the value of an investment in the Company:
(i) Mr. Xxxxxx F.X. Sillerman, as the beneficial owner of a majority of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, is the controlling stockholder of the Company and has the ability to exert significant control over the Company’s management and affairs requiring stockholder approval, including the approval of significant corporate transactions and the ability to elect and remove directors.
(ii) The Company is a development stage company and its prior operating history will not be germane to future operations. The Company’s prospects must be evaluated in light of
the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by a company in the early stage of development. The Business in which the Company intends to operate is highly competitive and makes these risks and certainties particularly pronounced. The Company may not succeed in developing a viable business and may never become profitable.
(iii) The Company has significant capital requirements to develop its business and will need to raise additional capital for the foreseeable future, which may occur through equity and/or debt financings. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise such capital when needed or on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, or at all. To the extent the Company raises additional capital by issuing equity securities, but subject to Section 6, the Company’s stockholders will experience dilution in their ownership of the Common Stock of the Company.
(iv) At Closing, the Company will initially acquire various businesses in the Business with whom it has been negotiating, after which the Registration Statement will be submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-1 to register for resale the Shares purchased by the Subscriber, together with those shares of Common Stock of other investors or businesses acquired for which shares of the Company’s Common Stock are given as consideration and any shares of Common Stock offered for sale by the Company. Except as set forth herein, there are no assurances as to the timing of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
(v) The loss of the services of Xx. Xxxxxxxxx or one or more key members of management or other key employees of the Company could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition. In addition, the future success of the Company will depend in large part upon its ability to attract and retain additional management and personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel, and the failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.
(vi) The Shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The Shares are highly illiquid. Until the Registration Statement is declared effective, the Shares to be issued will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, thus, will not be freely tradable or eligible for resale, unless an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 144, is available. Purchaser will not be able to rely on Rule 144 to sell the Shares unless the sale complies with the conditions of that rule, including satisfaction of Purchaser’s holding period. An active public market for the Company’s Common Stock may not develop or be sustained. In addition, the number of unrestricted shares of the Company in the public float may represent only a small percentage of the shares of Company Common Stock outstanding.
(vii) The Company does not anticipate paying dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of future debt financings may prohibit the payment of cash dividends on the Common Stock.
(f) Purchaser acknowledges (to the extent applicable):
(i) Purchaser, if executing this Subscription Agreement in a representative or fiduciary capacity, has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and in such capacity and on behalf of the subscribing individual, xxxx, partnership, trust, estate, corporation, or other entity for whom Purchaser is executing this Subscription Agreement, and such individual, xxxx, partnership, trust, estate, corporation, or other entity has full right and power to perform pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and make an investment in the Company;
(ii) Purchaser consents to the placement of the following legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Shares:
THESE SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND HAVE BEEN SOLD IN RELIANCE UPON EXEMPTIONS THEREFROM. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING THESE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.
(iii) The representations, warranties, and agreements of Purchaser contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement and the purchase of the Shares; and
(iv) In connection with any Transfer (as hereinafter defined) or attempted Transfer of Shares pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act, the Company shall be permitted to require in its sole discretion an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such Transfer is exempt from registration.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Purchaser as of (i) the date the Company executes this Subscription Agreement and (ii) as of the date of the Closing (the “Closing Date”), as follows:
(a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted.
(b) The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Subscription Agreement and to carry out and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement by the Company has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action, and this Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforcement of remedies to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the relief of debtors.
(c) The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement by the Company will not violate, conflict with, result in any breach of, result in the creation of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties, assets or outstanding shares of the Company or constitute a default under, any provision of law, any rule or regulation of any governmental authority, any judgment, decree or order of any court binding on the Company, or any of the unwaived terms, conditions or provisions under its Certificate of Incorporation or By Laws or any indenture, mortgage, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound or affected.
(d) The Shares, when so issued, sold and delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the provisions of this Subscription Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock. As of the Closing Date (but not including the Shares or any shares issued in the acquisitions of Targets or to other investors on or prior to such Closing Date), there will be 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and such shares have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.
(e) Neither the Company nor anyone acting on behalf of the Company has engaged in any general advertising or solicitation in contravention of the Securities Act for the offer and sale of the Shares or any other shares of Common Stock. Assuming the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations contained in this Subscription Agreement, the offer, sale, issuance and delivery of the Shares are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and all action required to be taken prior to the offer or sale of the Shares has been taken under applicable state securities laws.
(f) The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring the Targets and to operate in such related businesses and, prior to the acquisition of any Targets, had no operating history and has incurred no material liabilities other than in connection with financing and consummating the acquisition of the Targets.
(g) The Company is in material compliance with all laws, ordinances, and rules and regulations of governmental authorities applicable to or affecting it, its properties or its business, and the Company has not received notice of any claimed violation or default with respect to any of the foregoing which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
(h) The operations of the Company are, and have been conducted at all times, in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar applicable rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened. Neither the Company nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any of its current officers, has on behalf of the Company or in connection with its business: (a) made any direct or indirect unlawful payments to any governmental officials or employees from corporate funds; or (b) violated or is in violation of in any material respect any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.
(i) The representations, warranties, and agreements of Company contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement and the sale of the Shares.
5. Conditions to the Obligations of Purchaser. The obligation of Purchaser to purchase Shares at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment, or the waiver by Purchaser, of the following conditions on or before the Closing:
(a) Each representation and warranty contained in Section 4 shall be true and complete on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though such representation and warranty had been made on and as of that date.
(b) The Company shall have delivered to Purchaser a certificate, executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, certifying to the fulfillment of the conditions specified in Section 5(a) of this Subscription Agreement.
(c) All registrations, qualifications, permits and approvals required under applicable state and Federal securities laws for the lawful execution and delivery of this Agreement and the offer, sale, issuance and delivery of the Shares shall have been obtained, except for the notices required or permitted to be filed after the Closing with certain Federal and state securities commissions, which notices the Company will file on a timely basis.
(d) The Company will have acquired or will acquire on the Closing Date one or more Targets.
6. Affirmative Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees that, beginning upon the date the Company executes this Subscription Agreement and ceasing immediately prior to the time the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declares effective a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) which registers the resale of the Company’s Common Stock or the sale by the Company of its Common Stock, in each case, including without limitation, the Shares (in either event, an “IPO”), the Company shall:
(a) Use its reasonable best efforts to acquire by August 15, 2012 Targets with a purchase price based on commercially reasonable multiples under current market conditions using a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.
(b) Not issue shares of Common Stock or a derivative security containing a right to purchase Common Stock at a price per share that implies a valuation of the Company of less than $250,000,000.
(c) (i) Submit a registration statement to the SEC for its XXX xx Xxxxxx 00, 0000, (xx) use its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable thereafter, and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to qualify as an “emerging growth company”. The Company covenants that such registration statement shall seek to register for resale some or all shares that are held by the Company’s shareholders (including the Shares issued to Purchaser). The Company further covenants it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration statement all shares requested to be included by Non-management Holders (as hereinafter defined) as is practicable, subject to market conditions.
Any and all fees, costs and expenses incident to the registration and the IPO shall be borne by the Company. If the managing underwriter in the IPO advises the Company in writing that in its opinion, the shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in the registration exceeds the number of shares that can be sold in such offering, the Company shall include in such registration the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by Non-management Holders (as hereinafter defined) that such managing underwriter advises can be sold. In such event, the Company shall allocate that number of shares of Common Stock pro rata among the Non-management Holders (as hereinafter defined) of such shares of Common Stock. In no event, in connection with any indemnification obligations by any holder of shares of Common Stock that are incident to the registration of such holder’s shares, shall such holder’s liability exceed its proportionate amount of any such indemnity and the net amounts received by such holder from the sale of its shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement.
(d) Furnish to Purchaser:
(i) As soon as available and in any event within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, a consolidated balance sheet of the Company, a consolidated statement of operations of the Company, and consolidated statements of cash flows and stockholders’ equity of the Company as of the close of such fiscal year, all of the foregoing financial statements to be certified by independent public accountants and accompanied by a complete set of notes;
(ii) As soon as available and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company, a consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity, showing the financial condition of the Company; and
(iii) Such other reasonably requested documents and records of the Company.
(e) Use the proceeds from this Offering to fund the acquisitions of the Targets and to pay the expenses of its professionals (including auditor and attorney fees) in connection with the acquisitions of the Targets, this Offering and other capital raising transactions, and the IPO.
7. Tag Along Right. Beginning upon the date the Company executes this Subscription Agreement and ceasing immediately prior to the IPO, if Xxxxxx F.X. Sillerman and/or his affiliates (the “Selling Stockholder”) propose to sell or transfer, whether directly or indirectly (a “Transfer”), any shares of Common Stock to an unaffiliated third party (the “Proposed Transferee”), Purchaser shall be permitted to participate in such Transfer (a “Tag-along Sale”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7. Xxxxxx F.X. Sillerman shall acknowledge his agreement to comply with this Section 7 by executing the signature page hereof. The Selling Stockholder shall deliver to Purchaser a written notice of the proposed Transfer (the “Tag Notice”) no more than five business days after the execution and delivery by all the parties thereto of the definitive agreement entered into with respect to the Tag-along Sale and, in any event, no later than ten business days prior to the closing date of the Tag-along Sale. Purchaser shall be permitted to exercise its right to participate in the Tag-along Sale by delivering to the Selling Stockholder a written notice stating its election to do so and specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by it no later than five business days after receipt of the Tag Notice. Purchaser shall have the right to Transfer in a Transfer subject to this Section 7 the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Common Stock held by Purchaser by (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock the Selling Stockholder proposes to Transfer to the Proposed Transferee and (B) denominator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then owned by such Selling Stockholder. If the Selling Stockholder is unable to cause the proposed transferee in the Tag-along Sale to purchase all of the shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by Purchaser, then the number of shares of Common Stock that each such participating holder is entitled to Transfer shall be scaled back pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by such participating holder relative to the number of shares of Common Stock held by all participating holders in the Tag-along Sale. The Selling Stockholder shall have a period of 180 days after the expiration of the five business day period following the receipt of the Tag Notice to Transfer all of the shares of Common Stock agreed to be Transferred to the transferee, on the same terms specified in the Tag Notice. In connection with any Tag-along Sale in which Purchaser participates, Purchaser shall only be required to make or provide representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements customary for a minority stockholder selling in a Tag-along Sale similar to that described herein.
8. Other Protective Provisions. Beginning upon the Closing Date and ceasing immediately prior to the IPO, the Company shall not, without first obtaining the prior written consent or affirmative vote of non-management holders holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock (for avoidance of doubt, Sillerman and his affiliates shall be deemed to be management holders of shares of Common Stock) (“Non-management Holders”):
(a) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or the By-Laws of the Company in a manner that adversely effects the rights, preferences, and privileges of any class of capital stock;
(b) enter into any transaction with any affiliate of the Company (other than pursuant to a compensation arrangement approved pursuant to Section 8(f) hereof;
(c) issue, declare or make any dividends, distributions or redemptions other than on a pro rata basis;
(d) effect any material change in the nature of the Company’s business from the Business;
(e) effectuate any change in control of the Company resulting in Xxxxxx F.X. Sillerman (and his affiliates) no longer controlling the Company; or
(f) approve the payment for or make any payment in respect of compensation (including equity awards) to any senior officer of the Company unless such compensation amounts or terms are approved by the compensation committee of the board of directors.
9. Governance. Following the closing of the IPO, the Company shall comply, as if it were a Nasdaq listed company, with the corporate governance rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, including but not limited to, shareholder approval, related party transactions, and board independence requirements (subject to any phase-in periods that would be applicable to a company listing on the exchange).
10. Current Public Information. From and after the date in which the SEC declares the Registration Statement effective and for so long as Purchase owns Shares, the Company covenants to (i) timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act, even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and (ii) maintain the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the NASDAQ (if so listed). Concurrently with the IPO, the Company shall apply to list all of the shares of Common Stock, including without limitation, the Shares, on the NASDAQ and use its reasonable best efforts to secure the listing of such shares on the NASDAQ. Beginning on the sixth month anniversary of the Closing Date, if the Company has not submitted the Registration Statement to the SEC or has abandoned its previously submitted Registration Statement, then Purchaser shall have the right to require the Company to prepare and furnish to Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for Purchaser to sell the Shares at any time Purchaser owns Shares. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as Purchaser may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable Purchaser to sell the Shares without registration under the Securities Act.
11. Termination. This Subscription Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing at the option of Purchaser, in its sole discretion, upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is the three month anniversary of the Company’s execution of this Subscription Agreement, if the Closing has not then occurred, and (ii) the date of any breach of this Subscription Agreement by the Company that is not cured within ten days after receipt of written notice from Purchaser of such breach.
