Exhibit 10.1
AMENDMENT NO. 1
This AMENDMENT NO. 1 to OVERADVANCE SIDE-LETTER (this “Amendment”), dated as of October 21, 2007, is entered into by and among Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Parent”), Analytica International, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Analytica”), Teamm Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Teamm” and, together with the Parent and Analytica, the “Companies” and, each a “Company”) and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands company (the “Purchaser”), for the purpose of amending the terms of the Overadvance Side Letter dated as of August 29, 2007 by and among the Companies and Laurus (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Overadvance Side-Letter”) issued in connection with the Amended and Restated Security Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2005, and amended and restated as of February 13, 2006 by and among the Companies and Laurus (as amended and restated, further amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Security Agreement” and, together with Overadvance Side-Letter and the other Ancillary Agreements referred to in the Security Agreement, the “Loan Documents”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Security Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Companies have requested that the maturity and termination date of the Overadvances set forth in the Overadvance Side Letter be extended and Laurus has agreed to extend the Period (as defined in the Overadvance Side Letter), on the terms and conditions set forth herein, such.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The first sentence in the fourth paragraph of the Overadvance Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting the date “October 21, 2007” appearing therein and inserting the date “March 31, 2008” in lieu thereof.
2. Each Company and Laurus hereby acknowledges that certain payments to be made to Laurus by AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, a financial institution chartered under the laws of the State of New York (“AST”), in connection with the requirements of the Escrow Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2006 by and between the Parent and AST may exceed the amount required to pay principal and accrued interest as required under the Loan Documents, other than with respect to payments of principal on the Revolving Note (as defined in the Security Agreement) and the Overadvance (as defined in the Overadvance Side-Letter) (such amounts in excess of the required amortization payments are hereinafter referred to as the “Excess Payment”). Each Company hereby acknowledges and affirms that the “Maximum Third Overadvance Limit” under and as defined in the Overadvance Side Letter shall be permanently reduced on a dollar for dollar basis for that Excess Payment portion of each payment received from AST, in connection with the requirements of the Escrow Agreement, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.
3. Each Company hereby acknowledges and affirms that the amount of the Overadvance outstanding as of the date hereof is $4,400,000.
4. (a) The Parent hereby agrees to issue a warrant no later than October 21, 2007, in form and substance satisfactory to Laurus (the “Third Overadvance Warrant”) as attached as Exhibit A, to purchase up to 4,024,398 shares of Common Stock of the Parent, each with a par value of $0.001 (the “Third Overadvance Warrant Shares”). The defined term “Warrants” in the Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the Common Stock Purchase Warrant issued on the Closing Date and the Third Overadvance Warrant and the defined term “Warrant Shares” in the Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the Third Overadvance Warrant Shares.
(b) The Parent further agrees that if at any time after the date hereof there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Third Overadvance Warrant Shares issued hereunder and the Parent shall determine to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Parent shall send to Laurus written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, Laurus shall so request in writing, the Parent shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Third Overadvance Warrant Shares Laurus requests to be registered, to the extent the Company may do so without violating registration rights of others which exist as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and subject to obtaining any required consent of any selling stockholder(s) to such inclusion under such registration statement.
(c) The parties hereto agree that the fair market value of the Third Overadvance Warrant (as reasonably determined by the parties) received in consideration of the amendments to the Overadvance Side-Letter made by Laurus hereunder is hereby designated as additional interest. The parties further agree to file all applicable tax returns in accordance with such characterization and shall not take a position on any tax return or in any judicial or administrative proceeding that is inconsistent with such characterization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph shall or shall be deemed to modify or impair in any manner whatsoever the Companies’ obligations from time to time owing to Laurus under the Loan Documents.
5. The amendment set forth above shall be effective as of the date first above written (the “Amendment Effective Date”) on the date when (i) each of the Companies and Laurus shall have executed and each of the Companies shall have delivered to Laurus its respective counterpart to this Amendment and (ii) the Parent shall have duly executed (with witness) and delivered to Laurus the Third Overadvance Warrant.
6. Except as specifically set forth in this Amendment, there are no other amendments, modifications or waivers to the Loan Documents, and all of the other forms, terms and provisions of the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect.
2 |
7. Except as set forth in Schedule I hereto, each Company hereby represents and warrants to Laurus that (i) no Event of Default exists on the date hereof, after giving effect to this Amendment, (ii) on the date hereof, all representations, warranties and covenants made by each Company in connection with the Loan Documents are true, correct and complete and (iii) on the date hereof, all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ covenant requirements have been met.
8. From and after the Amendment Effective Date, all references in the Loan Documents and in the other Ancillary Agreements to the Overadvance Side Letter shall be deemed to be references to the Overadvance Side Letter, as the case may be, as modified hereby.
9. The Parent understands that the Parent has an affirmative obligation to make prompt public disclosure of material agreements and material amendments to such agreements. It is the Parent’s determination that neither this Amendment nor the terms and provisions of this Amendment, (collectively, the “Information”) are material. The Company has had an opportunity to consult with counsel concerning this determination. The Company hereby agrees that Laurus shall not be in violation of any duty to the Company or its shareholders, nor shall Laurus be deemed to be misappropriating any information of the Company, if Laurus sells shares of common stock of the Company, or otherwise engages in transactions with respect to securities of the Company, while in possession of the Information.
10. This Amendment shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one instrument.

The Warrant Repurchase Price shall be paid in full in cash within twenty calendar days following the Notice of Repurchase. Upon Notice of Repurchase and payment of the Warrant Repurchase Price, this Warrant shall be cancelled and Holder shall have no further rights hereunder.
Procedure for Exercise.
Delivery of Stock Certificates, Etc., on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares in accordance herewith. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.
Exercise.
Payment may be made either (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Exercise Price, (ii)
7
by delivery of this Warrant, or shares of Common Stock and/or Common Stock receivable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the formula set forth in subsection (b) below, or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common Shares specified in such Exercise Notice (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.
Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Exercise Notice in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X = | Y(A-B) | |||
A | ||||
Where X = | the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder | |||
Y = | the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the portion of this Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation) | |||
A = | the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation) | |||
B = | the Exercise Price per share (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) |
Effect of Reorganization, Etc.; Adjustment of Exercise Price.
Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person, or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
8
Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its Common Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder pursuant to Section 3.1, or, if the Holder shall so instruct the Company, to a bank or trust company specified by the Holder and having its principal office in New York, NY as trustee for the Holder.
Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder will be delivered to the Holder or the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.
Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock or any preferred stock issued by the Company, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise (taking into account the provisions of this Section 4).
Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will upon the Holder’s request promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or
9
readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder and any Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
Reservation of Stock, Etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of this Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of this Warrant.
Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”) in whole or in part. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, which shall include, without limitation, a legal opinion from the Transferor’s counsel (at the Company’s expense) that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense (but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.
Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
Registration Rights. The Holder has been granted certain piggyback registration rights by the Company. These registration rights are set forth in Amendment No. 1 to Overadvance Side Letter entered into by the Company and Holder dated as of the date hereof, as the same may be amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time.
Maximum Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would exceed the difference between (i) 9.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities
10
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The limitation described in the first sentence of this Section 10 shall automatically become null and void without any notice to the Company upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Holder, the Company and various subsidiaries of the Company, as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time), or upon 75 days prior notice to the Company.
Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the each Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
Transfer on the Company’s Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications from the Company to the Holder shall be mailed by first class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder or, until any such Holder furnishes to the Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last Holder who has so furnished an address to the Company.
Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. THIS WARRANT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. ANY ACTION BROUGHT CONCERNING THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS WARRANT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN STATE COURTS OF NEW YORK OR IN THE FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE HOLDER MAY CHOOSE TO WAIVE THIS PROVISION AND BRING AN ACTION OUTSIDE THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The individuals executing this Warrant on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Warrant is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The Company acknowledges that legal counsel participated in the preparation of this Warrant and, therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Warrant to favor any party against the other party.
