as of this 28th day of August, 2009 by and between MDI, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, with its principal office at 00000 Xxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xxx
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000 (the “Company”), and the
undersigned Investor (the “Investor”).
WHEREAS,
the Company desires to issue, in a private placement (the “Offering”),
$1,000,000 in aggregate purchase price of its Common Stock, $.01 par value (the
“Shares”), on
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, and the Investor desires to
acquire 4,000,000 Shares, subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as
follows:
|
I.
|
SUBSCRIPTION
FOR SHARES AND REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF
INVESTOR
|
1.1 Subject
to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Investor hereby
subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company 4,000,000 Shares at a
price of $0.25 per Share. The Company agrees to sell such Shares to the Investor
for said purchase price. The purchase price is payable by wire transfer of funds
directly by the Investor to the Company on the Closing (as defined
herein).
1.2 Subject
to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Company agrees to issue
to Investor at the Closing a Warrant to purchase 4,000,000 Shares (the Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, the “Warrant Shares”), at
an exercise price equal to $0.60 per Share, which shall be appropriately
adjusted for any recapitalizations, stock combinations, stock dividends, stock
splits and the like which occur after the Closing.
1.3 The
Investor recognizes that the purchase of Shares involves a high degree of risk,
including but not limited to risks that (i) the Company will need additional
capital but has no assurance of additional necessary capital; (ii) an investment
in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss
of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the
Shares; (iii) an investor may not be able to liquidate his investment; and (iv)
transferability of the securities comprising the Shares is extremely
limited.
1.4 The
Investor represents that he is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined
in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Act”), and that it/he
is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares.
1.5 The
Investor acknowledges that he has prior investment experience, including
investment in non-listed and non-registered securities, or he has employed the
services of an investment advisor, attorney or accountant to read all of the
documents furnished or made available by the Company both to him and to all
other prospective investors in the Shares and to evaluate the merits and risks
of such an investment on his behalf, and that he recognizes the highly
speculative nature of this investment. Such Investor, either alone or
together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the securities comprising
the Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such
investment. Such Investor is able to bear the economic risk of an
investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete
loss of such investment.
1.6 The
Investor hereby represents that he has been furnished by the Company during the
course of this transaction with all information regarding the Company which he
had requested or desired to know; that all documents which could be reasonably
provided have been made available for his inspection and review; that he has
been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly
authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the terms
and conditions of the Offering, and any additional information which he had
requested.
1.7 The
Investor acknowledges that this offering of Shares may involve tax consequences.
The Investor acknowledges that he must retain his own professional advisors to
evaluate the tax and other consequences of an investment in the
Shares.
1.8 The
Investor acknowledges that this offering of Shares has not been reviewed by the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) because of the
Company’s representations that this is intended to be a nonpublic offering
pursuant to Sections 4(2) or 3(b) of the Act. The Investor agrees that he will
not sell or otherwise transfer such securities unless they are registered under
the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
1.9 Such
Investor understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” and have not
been registered under the Act or any applicable state securities law and is
acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and not with a view to or
for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof, has no present
intention of distributing any of such Shares and has no arrangement or
understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of such Shares
(this representation and warranty not limiting such Investor’s right to sell the
Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities
laws). Such Investor does not have any agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any person or entity to distribute any of the
Shares.
1.10 The
Investor understands that although a public market exists for the Shares, Rule
144 (the “Rule”) promulgated
under the Act requires, among other conditions, a one year holding period prior
to the resale (in limited amounts) of securities acquired in a non-public
offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the Act.
The Investor understands that the Company makes no representation or warranty
regarding its fulfillment in the future of any reporting requirements under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or
its dissemination to the public of any current financial or other information
concerning the Company, as is required by Rule 144 as one of the conditions of
its availability. The Investor understands and hereby acknowledges that the
Company is under no obligation to register the securities comprising the Shares
under the Act. The Investor consents that the Company may, if it desires, permit
the transfer of the securities comprising the Shares out of his name only when
his request for transfer is accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that neither the sale nor the proposed transfer
results in a violation of the Act or any applicable state blue sky laws
(collectively “Securities Laws”).
The Investor agrees to hold the Company and its directors, officers and
controlling persons and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and
assigns harmless and to indemnify them against all liabilities, costs and
expenses incurred by them as a result of any misrepresentation made by him
contained herein or any sale or distribution by the undersigned Investor in
violation of any Securities Laws.
1.11 The
Investor acknowledges that he is (a) aware that the United States securities
laws prohibit any person who has material non-public information about a company
from purchasing or selling securities of such company, or from communicating
such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is
reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such
securities and (b) familiar with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange
Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the
Investor will not use, or cause any third party to use, any such material
non-public information in contravention of such act or any such rules and
regulations, including Rules 10b-5 and 14a-3.
1.12 The
Investor consents to the placement of one or more legends on any certificate or
other document evidencing his Shares stating that they have not been registered
under the Act and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on
transferability and sale thereof.
1.13 The
Investor hereby represents that the address of Investor furnished by him on the
signature page of this Stock Purchase Agreement is the undersigned’s principal
residence if he is an individual or its principal business address if it is a
corporation or other entity.
1.14 If the
undersigned Investor is a partnership, corporation, trust or other entity, such
partnership, corporation, trust or other entity further represents and warrants
that: (i) it is authorized and otherwise duly qualified to purchase and hold the
Shares; and (ii) that this Stock Purchase Agreement has been duly and validly
authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, binding and
enforceable obligation of the undersigned.
1.15 General
Solicitation. Such Investor is not purchasing the Shares as a
result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding
the Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast
over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general
solicitation or general advertisement.
1.16 Short
Sales. Such Investor has not directly or indirectly, nor has
any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such
Investor, executed any Short Sales in the securities of the Company (including,
without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since 4
P.M. (New York Time) on May 28, 2009 which was the time that such Investor was
first contacted regarding an investment in the Company (“Discussion
Time”). For purposes of this Section, “Short Sales” include,
without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 3b-3 of the Exchange
Act. Such Investor covenants that neither it nor any affiliates
acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any
Short Sales (i) during the period from the Discussion Time until prior to the
time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced or (ii) at any time after the transactions contemplated by this

Schedule, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of any
claims, nor does it have any knowledge of any threatened claims, and knows of no
facts which would form the basis of any claim, asserted by any person to the
effect that the sale or use of any product or process now used or offered by the

foregoing, which in either case would have a material adverse effect on the

the knowledge of the Company, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in
violation of or default under any of (i) or (ii) above.

governmental certificates, authorizations and permits and approvals
(collectively, “Licenses”) required

and no proceeding is pending or threatened to revoke or limit any
thereof.
