Re: Subscription to Purchase Notes of
Fortune Natural Resources Corporation
Gentlemen:
This will acknowledge that the undersigned hereby agrees to irrevocably purchase
from Fortune Natural Resources Corporation (the "Company" or " Fortune"), a
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, a convertible
subordinated note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $__________ . The Note
to be purchased by the undersigned is part of a private placement of securities
(the "Offering") by the Company of up to $3.5 million in aggregate principal
amount of Notes. The Offering is being made only to "accredited investors" as
defined herein on a $1.25 million aggregate principal amount minimum or none to
a $3.5 million aggregate principal amount maximum best efforts basis through
October 31, 1997. Based thereon, if $1.25 million in aggregate principal amount
of Notes is not sold and paid for on or prior to October 31, 1997 (unless
extended as provided below), the Offering will terminate and all funds collected
from subscribers will be promptly returned to them without interest thereon or
deduction therefrom. The Notes will be issued only in registered form in
denominations of $10,000 or integral multiples thereof and in such principal
amounts as shall be determined by the Company.
All funds collected from subscribers pending consummation or termination of the
Offering as set forth herein will be held in the escrow account described below.
The Company is required to obtain the permission of its primary lender, Credit
Lyonnais New York Branch (the "Bank"), in order to effect this Offering.
Accordingly, no funds will be released from the escrow account to the Company
unless the Bank's written permission is obtained or the Company determines to
repay the Bank in full with the proceeds of this Offering. As of September 30,
1997, the Company owed the Bank $865,000.
If all of the Notes are sold, the Company will receive aggregate gross proceeds
of $3.5 million less the expenses of this Offering which management estimates
will approximate $485,000, including the fee and expense allowance payable to X.
Xxxxxxx Securities, LLC (the "Placement Agent") described below. The Placement
Agent, a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the
"NASD"), is acting as the placement
1
agent for the Company in placing this Offering. The Offering will terminate on
the sooner to occur of the sale of all of the Notes or October 31, 1997, unless
extended through December 1, 1997 by the mutual consent of the Company and the
Placement Agent.
THE UNDERSIGNED UNDERSTANDS THAT THE INFORMATION PROVIDED TO HIM WITH RESPECT TO
THE COMPANY HAS NOT BEEN INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED BY THE PLACEMENT AGENT.
ACCORDINGLY, THERE IS NO REPRESENTATION BY THE PLACEMENT AGENT AS TO THE
COMPLETENESS OR ACCURACY OF SUCH INFORMATION.
The Placement Agent will receive a fee equal to 10% and a non-accountable
expense allowance equal to 3% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
sold. It will also be granted, for nominal consideration, the right, exercisable
over a five year period commencing on the last closing date of the Offering, to
purchase a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to 10% of the aggregate
gross proceeds of the Offering proceeds received by the Company, divided by 3.6.
The exercise price, subject to adjustment, will be $3.60 per share.
Xxxxx X. Xxxxx, who currently owns 279,200 shares of the Company's common stock
and warrants to purchase an additional 432,113 shares, is a registered
representative employed by the Placement Agent as the manager of its Phoenix,
Arizona branch office. Mr. Blank is participating in marketing the Offering.
Neither the Company nor the Placement Agent has obtained any independent opinion
relating to the fairness of the terms of this Offering or the compensation to be
paid to the Placement Agent for the services it will render in connection
herewith.
Xxxxx Xxxxxx, a director of Fortune, is acting as counsel to the Placement Agent
with respect to this Offering. Xx. Xxxxxx has also represented Mr. Blank for
approximately ten years. Because of the possibility that allegations of conflict
of interest could be raised in this situation, Xx. Xxxxxx has recused himself
from voting on all Fortune board of director matters associated with this
Offering.
PAYMENT FOR THE UNITS SHALL BE MADE BY CHECK PAYABLE TO "FORTUNE ESCROW ACCOUNT"
and delivered to the Placement Agent, together with an executed copy of this
Subscription Agreement and Investment Letter and the Purchaser Questionnaire
appended hereto as EXHIBIT A. Payment may be made by wire transfer pursuant to
instructions available on request from the Placement Agent.
The Notes will mature on December 31, 2007. They will bear annual interest at
the rate of 12%, payable quarterly, commencing January 1, 1998. The interest
will be computed on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30-day months. The
Notes will be subordinated to "Senior Debt" as defined therein. As of September
30, 1997, Senior Debt aggregated $1,893,000. The Notes will not be personally
guaranteed and there will be no sinking fund, trustee or indenture with respect
thereto.
2
Each Note will be convertible, unless previously redeemed, into the Company's
common stock, par value $0.01, (the "Common Stock") after April 30, 1999, at a
price equal to the lower of (i) the higher of $3.00 per share or the average of
the daily "Closing Price" of the Common Stock, as defined in the Note, for the
20 consecutive trading days prior to the first closing date of the Offering, or
(ii) 110% above the average daily Closing Price of the Common Stock for the 60
calendar day period immediately preceding May 1, 1999. Each Note holder will
also have, on one occasion only, an "Alternate Conversion Right," as defined in
the Note, in the event that the Company should issue shares below the conversion
price prior to May 1, 1999. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment in
accordance with appropriate anti-dilution provisions. Notes called for
redemption will be convertible to the close of business on the day before the
date fixed for redemption. Note holders will forfeit the accrued interest for
the then-current period on Notes surrendered for conversion. No cash or
fractional shares will be issued on conversion.
The Notes will be non-redeemable prior to May 1, 1999. Thereafter they will be
redeemable in whole or part on 30 days notice at the option of the Company
commencing at 110% of par, plus accrued interest, and declining at the rate of
.056% per month to par on November 1, 2000, plus accrued interest.
For a complete description of the terms of the Notes, reference is made to the
form of Note attached hereto as EXHIBIT B.
The holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock into which the Notes may
be converted (the "Underlying Shares") shall have the right, on one occasion
only commencing on January 1, 1999 and terminating one year after the date on
which all of the Notes have been repaid and/or converted, to demand that the
Company register the Underlying Shares with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") and use its best efforts to have such registration
statement declared effective. The Company will also grant the Note purchasers
certain "piggy back" registration rights with respect to the Underlying Shares.
Anything to the contrary not withstanding, the Company shall not be required to
register any Underlying Shares which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company's
counsel, may be sold pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by
Section (k) of Rule 144.
The undersigned acknowledges that the Note he is purchasing, as well as any
Underlying Shares into which the Note may be converted, have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") or qualified under
applicable state securities laws and that the transferability thereof is
restricted by the registration provisions of the Securities Act as well as such
state laws. Based upon the representations and agreements being made by him
herein, the Note is being sold to him pursuant to an exemption from such
registration provided by Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act and applicable
state securities law qualification exemptions. The undersigned further
acknowledges that the basis for these exemptions may not be available if,
notwithstanding such representations, he intends merely acquiring these
securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market
rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The undersigned
3
represents and warrants that he does not have any such intention. The
undersigned agrees that the documentation representing the Note to be received
by him, as well as the certificates representing any Underlying Shares, will
bear a legend indicating that transfer of these securities is restricted by
reason of the fact that they have not been so registered or qualified.
The undersigned represents that he is acquiring the Note, and will acquire the
Underlying Shares if he should convert the Note, solely for his own account as
principal and not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only and not
with a view to resale or other distribution or fractionalization thereof, nor
with the intention of selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or any
part of such securities for any particular event or circumstance, except
selling, transferring or disposing of them upon full compliance with all
applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the "Exchange Act"), the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Commission
thereunder, and any applicable state securities laws. The undersigned further
understands and agrees that (i) the securities may be sold only if they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified under any
applicable state securities laws or, in the opinion of the Company's counsel, an
exemption from such registration and qualification is available; (ii) any
routine sales of securities made in reliance upon Rule 144 can be made only in
the amounts set forth in and pursuant to the other terms and conditions,
including applicable holding periods, of that Rule; and (iii) the Company is
under no obligation to assist him in complying with any exemption from
registration under the Securities Act, or, except as otherwise set forth herein,
to register the Note or Underlying Shares on his behalf.
The undersigned represents and warrants that he has received (i) a copy of the
Form of the Note appended hereto as EXHIBIT B; (ii) a copy of the Company's Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 appended hereto as EXHIBIT C;

quarter ended March 31, 1997 appended hereto as EXHIBIT G; (vii) a copy of the
Company's Form 8-K dated June 16, 1997 appended hereto as EXHIBIT H; (viii) a

documents.
The undersigned also represents and warrants that he (i) has reviewed such other
documents and obtained such other information from the Company as he deems
necessary in order for him to make an informed investment decision; (ii) has had
access
4
to all relevant documents, instruments, books, and other records of or

receive answers from management and other representatives of the Company; and
(iii) is fully aware of the current business prospects, financial condition, and
operating history as set forth herein and in the Information Documents relating
to the Company. Except as may be provided in this Subscription Agreement and
Investment Letter and in the Information Documents, he warrants that no
representations, statements or inducements were made to him to purchase the
Note.

Description of Risk Factors appended hereto as EXHIBIT J.
