Exhibit 10.1
This Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of February __, 2015, by and between Park City Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and _________ (“Shareholder”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, 600,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”) is currently designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred”);
WHEREAS, the Shareholder beneficially owns ______ shares of Series B Preferred, which shares of Series B Preferred currently accrue dividends, payable in cash, at a rate of 15% per annum until July 2015 when the dividend rate will increase to 18% per annum (the “Dividend Rate”);
WHEREAS, each share of Series B Preferred is currently convertible, at the option of the Shareholder, into 2.5 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and has a stated value equal to $10.00 per share (“Stated Value”);
WHEREAS, in order to preserve the cash otherwise payable to the Shareholder as dividends on the Series B Preferred, and to reduce potential dilution to the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock that would occur should the Shareholder choose to convert their shares of Series B Preferred into shares of Common Stock, the parties have agreed to amend the Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights, Powers and Preference of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) in order to (the “Amendment”): (i) decrease the Dividend Rate to 7% per annum, if such dividends are paid by the Company in cash, and to 9% if such dividends are paid by the Company in PIK Shares (as defined below); (ii) allow the Company to pay accrued dividends on outstanding shares of Series B Preferred in either cash or by the issuance of additional shares of Series B Preferred (“PIK Shares”); (iii) eliminate the conversion feature of the Series B Preferred; and (iv) in order to ensure there are sufficient shares of Series B Preferred available for issuance as PIK Shares, increase the number of shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series B Preferred from 600,000 to 900,000; and
WHEREAS, in consideration for the Amendment, (i) the Holders will receive additional shares of Series B Preferred with a Stated Value equal to the amount that, but for the Series B Restructuring, would have been paid to the Holders as dividends over the next five years (the “Additional Series B Preferred”); and (ii) the Company will issue to the Shareholder a warrant to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares the Shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon conversion of their shares of Series B Preferred (“Series B Warrant”), for $4.00 per share.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby agreed and acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation.
1.1 Amendment to Terms and Conditions of the Series B Preferred. In reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall, and the Shareholder consents to, the filing of an amended and restated Certificate of Designation with the Nevada Secretary of State, titled the ‘First Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights, Powers and Preference of the Series B Preferred Stock’ and in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Amended Certificate of Designation”), to effect the following changes:
(i) amend the second paragraph of the Certificate of Designation, which paragraph sets forth the resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors designating shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series B Preferred, to read as follows:
“By resolution, the Board of Directors of the Corporation has established, designated and fixed the terms, preferences, limitations and relative rights of up to nine hundred thousand (900,000) shares of the authorized and unissued preferred stock of the Corporation, par value $0.01 per share, as “Series B Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) with the following rights, preferences, powers, privileges and restrictions, qualifications and limitations:”

(ii) eliminate Section 4, titled “Optional Conversion and Adjustment to Conversion Price”, in order to terminate the convertibility feature of the Series B Preferred into shares of Common Stock;

In the event any dividend payment is not paid within ten (10) days of the applicable Dividend Payment Date a late fee shall be assessed and paid to the dividend recipient in the amount of eighteen percent (18%) of the dividend amount.
(iii) The Company may pay dividends accrued pursuant this Section 1(a) at each Dividend Payment Date to any holder in either (i) shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) in cash or (iii) in some combination of Series B Preferred Stock and cash, provided that each holder shall receive the same combination of shares of Series B Preferred Stock and cash as all other holders on any Dividend Payment Date.”; and
