AGREEMENT
Agreement
(this “Agreement”) dated as of November 8, 2006 by and among GPS
Industries, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and each of the note
purchasers set forth on the signature pages hereto (the “Buyers”) is made with
reference to the following:
A. The
Company and Buyers have entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated
as of
September 20, 2005 (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Buyers
purchased from the Company secured convertible notes of the Company (the
“Notes”) in the initial aggregate amount of $3,720,000 (including prepaid
interest) which aggregate amount (including unpaid interest) as of the date
hereof is $2,527,603.
B. The
Company wishes to prepay the Notes and the Buyers are willing to accept the
prepayment in full satisfaction of the Notes and all other obligations of
Company to NIR of any nature including pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and
all documents executed in connection therewith.
C. Defined
terms not expressly defined herein shall have the same meanings as ascribed
to
them in the Purchase Agreement.
NOW
THEREFORE, the Company and each of Buyers hereby agree as follows:
1. Prepayment
of the Notes.
The
Company agrees to pay, and the Buyers agree to accept, in full satisfaction
of
all amounts owing under the Notes, including outstanding principal amount and
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, the amount of $2,800,000 (the “Payoff
Amount”). The parties acknowledge that the Payoff Amount is less than the
Optional Prepayment Amount set forth in Section 5.1 of each of the Notes.
In consideration of the Buyers accepting such reduced amount, within
five (5) business days from the payment of the Payoff Amount, the Company
shall deliver to the Buyers (pro rata in accordance with the amount being paid
to the applicable Buyer) five year warrants to purchase an aggregate of
3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.122
per share (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants will be substantially in the
form of the warrants previously delivered to the Buyers (the “Existing
Warrants”) except that the New Warrants will contain customary piggyback
registration rights subject to priority to the New Investors (as defined below)
in the case of cutbacks. The Payoff Amount shall be paid to the Buyers by wire
transfer within five (5) business days from the execution of this Agreement
by the parties in accordance with instructions to be provided to the Company
by
the Buyers.
2. Release.
Subject
only to the payment of the Payoff Amount and delivery of Warrants, each of
the
Buyers hereby agrees to release the Company and each entity providing to the
Company funds for the Payoff Amount (the “New Investors”) and their respective
officers, agents, employees, subsidiaries, related entities, affiliates,
divisions, successors, persons acting on their behalf in connection with the
matter set forth above and/or assigns, of and from any and all claims,
counterclaims, rights, demands, costs, damages, losses, liabilities, actions
and
causes of action including attorneys’ fees and court costs of every nature and
description, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, foreseen or
unforeseen, real or imaginary, actual or potential, and whether arising in
