CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.46
CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Convertible Promissory Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of April 19, 2007, is by and among Allozyne, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the persons and entities listed on Schedule I, hereto (each a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”), and ISB Accelerator Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Accelerator”). The Company, each of the Purchasers and Accelerator hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
PURCHASE, SALE AND TERMS OF NOTES, WARRANTS AND SHARES
1.01. The Notes. The Company has authorized the issuance and sale, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Purchasers of up to $3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6% Convertible Promissory Notes. The 6% Convertible Promissory Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and are herein referred to individually as a “Note” and collectively as the “Notes”, which terms shall also include any notes delivered in exchange or replacement therefor.
1.02. Conversion of the Notes. All of the principal and interest due on the outstanding Notes will automatically convert into equity securities as follows:
(a) The Company contemplates that, on or before December 31, 2007 (the “Qualifying Financing Date”), it may issue and sell to some or all of the Purchasers and/or certain third parties in a Qualifying Financing (as defined below) shares of a newly-designated series or class of the Company’s preferred stock (the “Qualifying Financing Securities”). Upon the consummation of the Qualifying Financing, all of the principal of and interest due on any Note shall be automatically converted, on the terms and conditions generally applicable to the Qualifying Financing, into shares of Qualifying Financing Securities at a conversion price per share (the “Qualifying Financing Price”) equal to the per share purchase price of the Qualifying Financing Securities; provided, however, that such Qualifying Financing occurs on or prior to the Qualifying Financing Date. A “Qualifying Financing” shall mean any equity financing (i) that results in at least $6 million in gross proceeds (excluding the amount of any indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes) to the Company and (ii) in which the purchase of any of the Qualifying Financing Securities is not contingent, in whole or in part, upon the Company granting intellectual property rights to such an investor or entering into an intellectual property arrangement, such as a co-development or distribution agreement, with such an investor.
(b) At any time prior to the Qualifying Financing Date but not after September 30, 2007, all of the outstanding principal amount and any accrued interest of the outstanding Notes shall be converted at the election of the holders of at least a majority in interest of the principal of the Notes then outstanding into shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Existing Preferred
Stock”), at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per share (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting the Existing Preferred Stock), as provided for in such election and subject to the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors and the requisite stockholder approval as to the creation of such additional shares. Upon such election, all Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be so converted without any further action on the part of the holder; or
(c) If a Qualifying Financing has not occurred on or before the Qualifying Financing Date and any Notes remain outstanding on such date, on January 1, 2008, all of the principal of and interest due on any Note shall be automatically converted into the Existing Preferred Stock at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per share (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting the Existing Preferred Stock).
No fractional share or interest of the Qualifying Financing Security or share of Existing Preferred Stock, as the case may be, or scrip representing fractional shares or interests, shall be issued upon conversion of any Note. Instead of any fractional shares or interest of a share of an equity security that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of such Notes, the Company shall pay to the holder of such Note a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the purchase price of such Qualifying Financing Security or share of Existing Preferred Stock, as the case may be.
1.03. The Warrants.
(a) The Company has authorized the issuance to the Purchasers of Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants exercisable for shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of either the Qualifying Financing Security or Existing Preferred Stock as set forth in the Warrants. The Warrants shall be issued at the time of the issuance of the Notes and shall be substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit B hereto. The Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and are herein referred to individually as a “Warrant” and collectively as the “Warrants”, which terms shall also include any notes delivered in exchange or replacement therefor.
(b) In consideration of Accelerator executing and delivering at the Closing an Amended and Restated Master Work Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, the Company has authorized the issuance and sale to Accelerator, a warrant, substantially in the form of the warrants previously issued to Accelerator (the “Accelerator Warrant”), to purchase up to an aggregate of 225,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Accelerator Warrant shall have an exercise price per share equal to $0.10 per share of Common Stock and shall be issued at the time of the issuance of the Notes and the Warrants.
1.04. The Closing. Subject to and in reliance upon the representation, warranties, terms and conditions contained herein, the Company agrees to issue (i) and sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase the principal amounts of the Notes set forth opposite each Purchaser’s name under the heading “Principal Amount of Notes” on the Schedule of Purchasers set forth in Schedule I, hereto and a
2
Warrant for that number of Warrant Shares as determined according to Schedule 2 of the Warrants and (ii) the Accelerator Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 225,000 shares of Common Stock to Accelerator. Such purchase and sale shall take place on April 19, 2007 (the “Closing”) at the offices of Xxxxxxx Procter LLP, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000 or such other date, time or place as may be mutually agreed upon. The aggregate purchase price to be paid at the Closing by each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, for each Purchaser’s respective Note as set forth on Schedule I shall be the dollar amount set forth on Schedule I under the heading “Principal Amount of Notes”, and the Company will issue and deliver such Notes against payment of the purchase price of the Notes set forth opposite each Purchaser’s name set forth in Schedule I and a Warrant for that number of Warrant Shares as determined according to Schedule 2 of the Warrants hereto by wire transfer, bank check, certified check or any combination of such methods and payments.
1.05. Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes.
