Xxxxxx, XX 00000
Dear Xx. Xxxxxx:
Raptor Networks Technology, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the
"Company") proposes to offer, issue and sell up to 3,250,000 units (the "Units")
(subject to certain limitations on the amount of Units which may be sold as set
forth in the Memorandum (defined below)) to accredited investors only at a
purchase price of $2.00 per Unit for total gross offering proceeds of up to
$6,500,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit shall consist of four shares of the
Company's Common Stock (the "Shares") and one warrant to purchase a share of the
Company's Common Stock (the "Investor Warrants"). The Investor Warrants shall
have a term of five years and an exercise price of $2.50 per share, provided
however that the Company may call the Investor Warrants on the first day after
the Company's 30 trading day average price closing exceeds $3.50. The Company
hereby confirms its agreement with you which is set forth below. The Company
also confirms that all terms and provisions of the Term Sheet executed between
you and the Company on February 18, 2005 and attached hereto as Exhibit A, are
hereby incorporated herein by reference, except as superceded by this Agreement.
1. APPOINTMENT OF MANAGING DEALER. Brookstreet Securities Corporation
("Brookstreet") is hereby appointed as Managing Dealer for the Offering on an
exclusive basis. The Company shall not solicit any other broker/dealers to
participate in the Offering. The Company shall not solicit any other
broker/dealers to participate in the Offering and the Company will not sell any
Units directly to the public without Brookstreet's prior written consent.
Brookstreet shall be entitled to solicit the services of other broker/dealers or
reallow a portion of the compensation set forth in Section 7 hereof in
connection with performing its services hereunder and as permitted by applicable
law. In the event that 3,250,000 Units are sold in the Offering, Brookstreet, in
its sole discretion, shall have the right to increase the maximum number of
Units being sold in the Offering by up to 650,000 units, thereby increasing the
Offering to include up to 3,900,000 Units (the "Overallotment Option").
2. SOLICITATION. By accepting this Agreement, Brookstreet agrees to use
its best efforts to solicit and sell, or cause to be solicited and sold, as the
case may be, subscriptions for said Units in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the private placement memorandum, together with
any revisions, supplements or amendment thereof, all of which have received
Brookstreet's prior approval (the "Memorandum"), and the applicable federal and
state securities laws and regulations in connection with the Offering. The Units
are only being offered to an unlimited number of persons who are accredited
investors within the meaning of the requirements of Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and Regulation D promulgated
under the Act. Brookstreet does not guarantee that any sales of Units will be
made through any of its efforts.
3. SOLICITATION MATERIAL. No sales literature may be used by
Brookstreet other than the Memorandum or other offering materials which have
been approved in writing by the Company and Brookstreet and their respective
counsel, nor shall Brookstreet publicly solicit in any manner offers to purchase
the Units. Before delivering any Memorandum to any prospective investor,
Brookstreet shall have reasonable grounds to believe and in fact believe that
each prospective investor is an "accredited investor" as defined under the Act
and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and that such investor is sophisticated
and otherwise qualified to invest in the Units. Brookstreet agrees that it shall
forward all proceeds and subscription agreements directly to the Escrow Agent
(as defined below).
4. SALE OF UNITS. The Company reserves the right to refuse to accept
any and all subscriptions secured by Brookstreet. No subscription will be deemed
to be accepted by the Company until all necessary documents relating to such
subscription have been received by the Company, appropriate blue sky filings
have been made with the state of residence of such investor and the Company has
indicated acceptance of the subscription. All prospective sales of Units are
subject to the sale of Units to other persons prior to the time when any
proposed sale is submitted to the Company for acceptance thereof. Subscription
proceeds will be held in an escrow account at City National Bank's Los Angeles
office (the "Escrow Agent") pending acceptance of such subscriptions by the
Company.
5. CLOSING OF OFFERING. Unless at least the minimum number of Units
("Minimum Offering") set forth in the Memorandum is sold within the offering
period set forth in the Memorandum (as potentially extended by the Company), the
Offering will terminate, none of the Units will be deemed to have been sold and
all proceeds received will be returned in full with any interest earned thereon
and no commissions shall be paid to Brookstreet pursuant to Section 7 of this
Agreement. If the Minimum Offering is sold, the subscription proceeds will be
released from escrow and deposited to the Company's account.
6. TIMING OF PAYMENT OF COMMISSIONS. If the Minimum Offering is sold
within the offering period set forth in the Memorandum, the Company shall
instruct the Escrow Agent to remit to Brookstreet concurrently upon the Company
receiving the proceeds from the sale of the Minimum Offering (the "Initial
Closing"), the amount of the commission to be paid to Brookstreet pursuant to
Section 7 of this Agreement. For closings occurring after the Initial Closing
("Interim Closings"), the Company shall instruct the Escrow Agent to remit to
Brookstreet the amount of commission to be paid to Brookstreet pursuant to
-2-
Section 7 of this Agreement concurrently with the payment of the proceeds of the
Interim Closings to the Company. There shall be no minimum amount of Interim
Offerings once the Minimum Offering has been met.
7. AMOUNT OF SALES COMMISSIONS. Provided that the proceeds from the
sale of the Minimum Offering are received by the Company, the Company shall pay
Brookstreet:
(a) A retail sales commission equal to 6% of the gross
proceeds from the sale of Units in the Offering;
(b) A marketing allowance equal to 2% of the gross proceeds
from the sale of Units in the Offering;
(c) A non-accountable expense allowance equal to 4% of the
gross proceeds from the sale of Units in the Offering;
(d) a retail sales commission of 6% of the gross proceeds from
the exercise of Investor Warrants.
(e) A warrant (the "Brookstreet Warrants") to purchase a
number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to 10% of the aggregate number of
Shares sold in the Offering. The exercise price of the Brookstreet Warrants
shall be $0.50 per share. The Brookstreet Warrants will contain standard and
customary net issuance (i.e. cashless exercise) and anti-dilution provisions and
shall expire five years after their date of issuance, provided, however that
they shall terminate immediately upon a merger, acquisition, consolidation, sale
of voting control or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company in
which the shareholders of the Company do not own a majority of the outstanding
shares of the surviving corporation (collectively, a "Change in Control.") The
shares underlying the Brookstreet Warrants will have registration rights
identical to those of the Shares. Brookstreet may distribute the Brookstreet
Warrants to affiliates, agents, and employees at its discretion and in
conformity with applicable law.
(f) A warrant (the "Broker Warrants") to purchase a number of
shares of Company Common Stock equal to 5% of the aggregate number of Shares
sold in the Offering. The exercise price of the Broker Warrants shall be $0.50
per share. The Broker Warrants will contain standard and customary net issuance
(i.e. cashless exercise) and anti-dilution provisions and shall expire five
years after their date of issuance, provided, however that they shall terminate
immediately upon a Change in Control. The shares underlying the Broker Warrants
will have registration rights identical to those of the Shares. Brookstreet may
distribute the Broker Warrants to affiliates, agents, and employees at its
discretion and in conformity with applicable law. The Brookstreet Warrants and
the Broker Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the "Placement Agent
Warrants."
(g) In addition to the Placement Agent Warrants, the Company
shall grant Brookstreet and/or its designees a warrant to purchase shares of the
Company's common stock equivalent to 7% of the common shares sold upon exercise
of the Investor Warrants (the "Exercise Warrants.") Pursuant to an agreement to
be executed between the Company and Brookstreet and/or its designees, the
-3-
Exercise Warrants shall have a per share exercise price of $2.50 and shall vest
fully and immediately upon issuance. The Exercise Warrants will contain standard
and customary net issuance (i.e. cashless exercise) and anti-dilution provisions
and shall expire two years after their date of issuance, provided, however that
they shall terminate immediately upon a Change in Control. The shares underlying
the Exercise Warrants will have registration rights identical to those of the
Shares. Brookstreet may distribute the Exercise Warrants to Brookstreet to
affiliates, agents, and employees at its discretion and in conformity with
applicable law.
(h) In the event prospective investors or institutions who are
introduced to the Company by Brookstreet or other participating broker/dealers
during the Offering ultimately purchase common stock of the Company within a
period of twelve months from the date of this Agreement but after the conclusion
of the Offering, the Company shall deliver to Brookstreet the same compensation
which Brookstreet would have been entitled had such transactions been included
in the Offering.
