THIS
SECURITIES EXCHANGE AGREEMENT is made and entered into on May 14, 2009, by and
between CLACENDIX, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), on the one
hand, and XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.XXX, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the
stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholders”) whose
names appear on the signature pages hereof solely for the purpose of agreeing
with respect to himself, herself or itself to Sections 1, 4, 7, 9 and 10 hereof,
on the other hand.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of each of Parent and the Company have each determined
that Parent’s acquisition of the Company is fair to and in the best interests of
their respective entities and the stockholders thereof;
WHEREAS, in furtherance thereof, it
is proposed that such acquisition be accomplished by all of the Stockholders
contributing, selling and transferring to Parent all of their shares of the
Company’s Class A common stock, no par value (the “Company Class A
Shares”), and Class B common stock, no par value (the “Company Class B
Shares” and together with the Class A Shares constituting all the
outstanding capital stock of the Company, the “Company Shares”), in
exchange for the issuance and sale by Parent of newly-issued shares of common
stock, par value $.001 per share, of Parent (“Parent Common
Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein
(the “Exchange”);
WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of Parent and the Board of Directors and the stockholders
of the Company each have approved this Agreement and transactions contemplated
hereby, including the Exchange;
WHEREAS,
to induce Parent and the Company to enter into this Agreement, the Stockholders
have agreed to accept the Exchange and become parties to this Agreement solely
for the purpose of agreeing with respect to himself, herself or itself to
Sections 1, 4, 7, 9 and 10 hereof;
WHEREAS,
in advance of the Closing (as defined below) of the Exchange, the Company has
completed a private placement (the “Private Placement”)
to accredited investors (the “Private Placement
Investors”) pursuant to those certain Private Placement subscription
agreements, dated April 29, 2009 to May 12, 2009, by and between each of the
Private Placement Investors and the Company (the “Private Placement
Subscription Agreements”), for the purpose of expanding the business of
the Company, for aggregate gross cash proceeds of $1,200,000. The
Private Placement consisted of (a) $1,200,000 principal face amount of
convertible promissory notes (the “Company Notes”),
convertible into 15,855,227 shares of Parent Company Stock following the
Closing, and (b) warrants to purchase up to 8,068,197 shares of Parent Company
Stock following the Closing (the “Company Warrants”).
In addition, one Private Placement Investor committed pursuant to their Private
Placement Subscription Agreement to purchase 10,569,396 shares of Parent Company
Stock following the Closing for an additional $800,000. Parent will assume the
Company’s rights and obligations under the Private Placement Subscription
Agreements, Company Notes and Company Warrants following the
Closing;
WHEREAS,
the Stockholders own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the
Company.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants hereinafter
set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. The Exchange
Offer.
1.1 The
Exchange.
(a) Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon execution and delivery
hereof, Parent hereby agrees to acquire the Shares from the Stockholders solely
in consideration and exchange for newly and duly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock as provided for in Section 1.3(a)
hereof.
(b) Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, (i) the
Stockholders shall contribute, transfer, assign and deliver to Parent all of the
outstanding Shares owned by them as specifically set forth on Schedule 1.1 hereto,
and (ii) solely in consideration and exchange therefor, Parent shall
issue to the Stockholders an aggregate of 155,194,563 newly and duly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with
the Exchange Ratio as provided for in Section 1.3(a) hereof.
(c) As
a result of the Exchange, the Company shall become a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Parent.
1.2 Directors and
Officers.
(a) Pursuant
to Section 5.4 below, in advance of the Closing, Parent’s board of directors has
been set at four (4) members. Effective as of the Closing, Xxxxx X. Xxxxx shall
resign as a director of Parent. In accordance with Parent’s By-laws for filling
newly-created board vacancies, Xxxxxx X. Xxxx and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, existing
Parent directors, will appoint Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxx to serve as
additional directors of Parent effective as of the Closing. Xx. Xxxxxxx will
resign as a director of Parent following the Closing, with his resignation to
take effect only upon compliance by Parent with the provisions of Section 14(f)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 14f-1 under that
act.
1.3 Manner and Basis of
Exchanging the Shares.
(a) At
the Closing, the outstanding Company Shares beneficially owned by the
Stockholders, which Company Shares constitute all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Company, shall be contributed, transferred, assigned and
delivered to Parent and Parent shall authorize its Transfer Agent to issue the
Parent Common Stock specified below to each Stockholder in accordance with the
following exchange ratios (the “Exchange
Ratios”).

(b) No
fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in the Exchange. If the
number of Company Shares a Stockholder holds immediately prior to the Closing
multiplied by the applicable Exchange Ratio would result in the issuance of a
fractional share of Parent Common Stock, that product will be rounded up to the
nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock.
1.4 Distribution of
Certificates. At the
Closing, Parent shall deliver to Registrar and Transfer Company, its transfer
agent and registrar (the “Transfer Agent”), a
letter of instruction to prepare and deliver to the Company’ counsel, who shall
act as distribution agent for the benefit of the Stockholders (the “Distribution
Agent”), certificates representing the appropriate number of shares
of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Sections 1.1 and 1.3 hereof.
The shares of Parent Common Stock evidenced by the certificates shall be
registered in the names of the Stockholders and shall be in the denominations
for each of them set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule 1.1
hereto. The letter of instruction to the Transfer Agent shall specify that the
shares of Parent Common Stock evidenced by the certificates shall not be issued
until Parent has changed its corporate name and new Parent stock certificates
reflecting the new name and CUSIP number are available for issuance. Upon
receipt of the Parent Common Stock certificates from the Transfer Agent, the
Distribution Agent shall distribute them to the Stockholders.
1.5 Parent Common
Stock. Parent
agrees that it will cause the Parent Common Stock to be issued in exchange for
the Company Shares at the Closing pursuant to Section 1.3(a) to be available for
such purpose.
1.6 Parent Stock
Options. All
options to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock outstanding as of the date
hereof shall, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the relevant
stock option agreement between the holder and Parent and/or the relevant Parent
stock option plan, continue in full force and effect and otherwise remain
subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant stock option agreement and
the relevant Parent stock option plan. Parent hereby expressly
assumes and affirms the continuation, following completion of the Exchange, of
all options to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock outstanding as of the date
hereof, and acknowledges and affirms that such options shall
otherwise remain subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant stock
option agreement and the relevant Parent stock option plan.
3
1.7 Tax
Consequences. The
parties to this Agreement intend and desire that, for U.S. Federal income tax
purposes, the Exchange to take place pursuant to the Exchange Offer shall
constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 351 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the
regulations promulgated thereunder.
2. Representations and
Warranties of the Company. The
Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent, and to Parent’s directors and
officers, except as set forth in the Company’s disclosure schedules attached
hereto, as follows:
2.1 Organization and
Standing. The
Company is a corporation duly organized and existing in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware, and has all requisite power and authority to
carry on its business as it is now being conducted, to own and lease its
properties and assets, to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the terms
hereof. The copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of
the Company that have been delivered to Parent prior to the execution of this
Agreement are true, correct and complete and have not since been amended or
repealed. The Company is not in violation or breach of its
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, except where such violation or breach
could not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse
Effect. The Company has no subsidiaries or direct or indirect
interest (by way of stock ownership or otherwise) in any firm, corporation,
limited liability company, partnership, association or business.
2.2 Qualification. The
Company is duly qualified to conduct business as a foreign corporation and is in
good standing in each state or other jurisdiction wherein the nature of its
activities or properties owned or leased makes such qualification necessary,
except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to
have a Company Material Adverse Effect.
2.3 Capitalization. The
authorized capital stock of the Company after completion of the Private
Placement and prior to giving effect to the Exchange consists of (i) 1,400,000
shares of Company Class A Shares, of which 1,060,000 shares are issued and
outstanding, and (ii) 100,000 shares of Company Class B Shares, of which 40,608
shares are issued and outstanding.
(a) All
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable and are not subject to, or issued in
violation of, any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal,
preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right. The offer,
issuance and sale of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company were
(a) exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act, (b) registered or qualified (or were exempt from registration or
qualification) under the registration or qualification requirements of all
applicable state securities laws and (c) accomplished in conformity with all
other applicable securities laws.
(b) Except
as set forth on Schedule 2.3(b)
hereto, the Company has no outstanding options, warrants, rights, calls,
preemptive rights, subscriptions or other commitments to issue, nor any plan or
arrangement to issue, any Equity Securities of the Company.
4
(c) Except
as set forth on Schedule 2.3(c)
hereto, the Company is not a party to any agreement granting any securityholder
of the Company the right to cause the Company to register shares of the capital
stock or other securities of the Company held by such securityholder under the
Securities Act. There is no voting trust, proxy, rights plan,
anti-takeover plan or other agreement or understanding to which the Company is a
party or by which it is bound with respect to any Equity Securities of the
Company.
(d) There
are no outstanding contractual obligations (contingent or otherwise) of the
Company to retire, repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any outstanding
shares of capital stock of, or other ownership interests in, the Company or to
provide funds to or make any investment (in the form of a loan, capital
contribution or otherwise) in any other entity or person.
2.4 Indebtedness. Except
as set forth on Schedule 2.4 hereto,
the Company has no Indebtedness for Borrowed Money.
2.5 Stockholders. Schedule 1.1 hereto
contains a true and complete list of the names and addresses of the record
owners of all of the outstanding Company Shares and other Equity Securities of
the Company, together with the number and percentage of securities
held. The Stockholders own all of the issued and outstanding Equity
Securities of the Company. No more than ten Stockholders are not
“accredited investors” as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act, and
other than those Stockholders, the rest of the Stockholders are “accredited
investors” as defined in such Rule 501. To the knowledge of the
Company, except as set forth on Schedule 2.5 hereto,
there is no voting trust, agreement or arrangement among any of the beneficial
holders of Equity Securities affecting the nomination or election of directors
or the exercise of the voting rights of the Equity Securities. No Stockholder
learned of the offering of Parent Common Stock through any form of general
solicitation or general advertising. To the
knowledge of the Company, except as set forth on Schedule 2.5 hereto,
the Company has no liability or obligation or commitment to any stockholder of
the Company or any Affiliate or “associate” (as such term is defined in Rule 405
under the Securities Act) of any stockholder of the Company, nor does any
stockholder of the Company or any such Affiliate or associate have any
liability, obligation or commitment to the Company.
2.6 Corporate
Authority. The
Company has full corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and
the other agreements to be made pursuant thereto, and to carry out the
transactions contemplated hereby, including the Exchange. All corporate acts and
proceedings required for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement, and such other agreements and documents by the Company in
connection therewith have been duly and validly taken. The Board of Directors of
the Company, at a meeting duly called and held, has determined that this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are advisable and
in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and has duly authorized this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
5
2.7 Compliance with Laws and
Instruments. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the
consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement:
(a) will not require any authorization, consent or approval of, or filing or
registration with, the consent of any third party or any court or governmental
agency or instrumentality, except such as shall have been obtained prior to the
Closing or as set forth on Schedule 2.7 hereto,
