RE: Restatement of Subscription Agreement
by and between Affinity International Travel
Systems, Inc. and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Venture Capital, LLC
Dated January 15, 1999
Dear ▇▇▇▇▇▇:
It has come to my attention that the documentation evidencing the
transaction by and between Affinity International Travel Systems, Inc. ("AFFT")
and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Venture Capital, LLC ("SVC" or "the subscriber") executed as of
January 15, 1999 does not embody the true intention of the agreement reached by
AFFT and SVC. As such, this letter, with your consent, evidenced by your
execution of this letter agreement where indicated below, will void ab initio
the Subscription Agreement dated January 15, 1999 by and between AFFT and SVC
and restate, retroactively to January 15, 1999, the terms and conditions of
AFFT's sale of a convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of
$222,000.00 (the "Note"), convertible into 634,286 shares of common stock,
$0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") for the purchase price set forth
in Section 4 hereof to SVC. The Note is unsecured, shall not bear any interest,
is immediately convertible, shall only be payable in common stock at the time of
conversion and, to the extent the Note has not been converted by March 31, 1999,
the unconverted principal shall automatically be converted into shares of common
stock, as provided herein without further action on the part of the Company or
the subscriber.
SVC understands that the offering is being made without registration of
the Note or the underlying Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), in reliance on an exemption for transactions by
an issuer not involving a public offering and further understands that SVC is
purchasing such securities without being furnished any prospectus setting forth
all of the information that would be required to be furnished under the
Securities Act, and understands further that the offering is being made only to
"accredited investors" (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the
Securities Act).
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Subscription
Agreement (this "Agreement"), the subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for
the Note, the purchase price for which is payable as described in Section 4.
2. Acceptance of Subscription and Issuance of Note. It is understood and agreed
that the Company has the right to accept or reject this subscription, in whole
or in part, and that this subscription is accepted by the Company only when it
is signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company and delivered to the
subscriber at the Closing referred to in Section 3.
3. The Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Note (the "Closing")
shall take place at the offices of the Company or such other mutually acceptable
place at such time and place as the Company shall designate by notice to the
subscriber. The Company may, at its option, elect to close the purchase and sale
of the shares in one or more Closings.
4. Payment and Terms of Note. The undersigned shall make payment in the amount
of Two Hundred Twenty Two Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($222,000.00) (the
"Purchase Price"), for the Note, less the amount necessary to satisfy all costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorney and professional fees, travel,
lodging and other transportation expenses, if any, of the subscriber incurred in
connection with this subscription, to the Company via certified check, personal
check, or wire transfer to the account designated by the Company.
5. Representations of the Company. As of the date of the Closing (the "Closing
Date"), the Company represents as follows:
(a) Valid Issuance. The Common Stock issuance upon conversion of the Note,
when issued in accordance with the Note, will represent validly authorized, duly
issued and fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company, and the issuance
thereof will not conflict with the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the
Company nor with any outstanding warrant, option, call, preemptive right or
commitment of any type relating to the Company's capital stock.
(b) Other Representations and Agreements.
(i) Use of Proceeds. The Company agrees that it, or a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, shall only use the proceeds received from this
subscription for directly related operating expenses of the Company or any
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, but in no event shall the proceeds from
this subscription be used for present or future compensation, whether regular or
special, of any officer or director of the Company.
(ii) Right of First Refusal - Future Financing. For eighteen (18)
months from and after the date hereof, in the event that the Company solicits,
or is advised by an investment banker or financing specialist to solicit,
investment capital by means of any private placement of securities or other
financing efforts utilizing securities of the Company, the Company shall first
offer to the subscriber the ability to participate in all or part of such
private placement or
2
financing. The subscriber shall accept or reject the offer within five business
(5) days of receipt of the offer. Such response shall be made in writing via
certified mail, return receipt requested, or via overnight mail. In the event
that the subscriber agrees to provide such future financing, the subscriber
shall be required to provide such financing at a discounted commission rate of
five percent (5%). This provision shall not be effective for any investment
opportunity not generated through the initial efforts of the Company.
(iii) Registration of Shares. Not later than December 15, 1999, the
Company shall effect a registration under the Securities Act of all shares of
common stock owned by the undersigned and which the undersigned requests to be
registered. The Company will bear all registration expenses (exclusive of
underwriting discounts and commissions) of all registrations of the securities
owned by the undersigned.
If the Company intends to distribute any of the registered
shares of the subscriber and/or any other shareholder and/or the Company
pursuant to an underwriting and the underwriter advises the Company in writing
that marketing factors require a limitation of shares to be underwritten, the
number of shares of the subscriber to be included in such underwriting shall not
be reduced, pro rata or otherwise, unless all other securities are first
entirely excluded from the underwriting or upon receipt of the written consent
of the subscriber, which consent may be withheld for any or no reason. If
despite the best efforts of the Company, the total number of shares requested by
the subscriber to be registered cannot be so included, the Company shall
purchase from the subscriber that number of shares which was unable to be
included in the underwritten offering at the price per share received in the
offering.
If the Company shall furnish to the subscriber a certificate
signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company providing that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement
to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such
registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action
with respect to such filing for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days;
provided, however, in the event that the Company shall fail to have a
registration statement declared effective by the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") by December 15, 1999 for any reason whatsoever,
including pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, as compensation for the
breach of the terms of this Subscription Agreement by the Company, the Company
shall immediately transfer to the subscriber 100,000 shares of common stock. For
each successive thirty (30) day period commencing on December 16, 1999 that the
Company does not have an effective registration statement filed with the SEC,
the Company shall transfer to the subscriber an additional 100,000 shares of
common stock. The Company shall not have the right to defer registration more
than once in any twelve (12) month period.
(iv) Additional Registration Rights. The subscriber shall be
entitled to unlimited "piggyback" registration rights in connection with all
registrations of securities by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or
in connection with any demand registration of any shareholder of the Company
(except for registrations on Form S-8 or Form S-4). The Company will bear all
registration expenses (exclusive of underwriting discounts and commissions) of
all piggyback registrations by the subscriber.
3
(v) Sale of Additional Investor Shares. From and after the date
hereof, in the event that the Company in any non-public offering sells any
common stock at a price per share that is less than $0.35, then for no
additional consideration, the Company shall immediately transfer to the
undersigned that number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the
difference between (1) the number of shares which would have been issuable upon
conversion of the Note at the lesser price per share of such subsequently sold
securities and (2) the number of shares issuable under the Note.
(vi) Co-Sale Rights. The Company shall, and shall cause its officers
and directors (collectively with the Company the "Shareholders") to, grant to
the subscriber a right of co-sale (on a pro-rata basis) such that upon notice to
the subscriber of any non-public sale or disposition of shares of the Company by
such Shareholders and/or the Company, the subscriber, upon written notice to the
Company and/or the selling Shareholders, shall be entitled to participate,
pro-rata as determined by each party's percentage ownership in the Company, in
such sale of shares of the Company on the same terms and conditions as the
Company and/or the selling Shareholders.
In the event the Company or a Shareholder sells any shares in
contravention of the co-sale rights of the subscriber under this Agreement (a
"Prohibited Transfer"), the subscriber, in addition to such other remedies as
may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, shall have the "put" option
provided below, and the Company and the Shareholders shall be bound by the
applicable provisions of such option.
In the event of a Prohibited Transfer, the subscriber shall have the
right to sell to the Company the number of shares equal to the number of shares
the subscriber would have been entitled to transfer to the purchaser hereunder
had the Prohibited Transfer been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the
terms hereof. Such sale shall be made on the following terms and conditions:
(1) The price per share at which the shares are to be sold to
the Company shall be equal to the price per share paid by the purchaser to the
Shareholder or the Company in the Prohibited Transfer. The Company shall also
reimburse the subscriber for any and all fees and expenses, including legal fees
and expenses, incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of the
subscriber's rights hereunder.
(2) Within ninety (90) days after the later of the dates on
which the subscriber either (A) received notice of the Prohibited Transfer or
(B) otherwise became aware of the Prohibited Transfer, the subscriber shall, if
exercising the option created hereby, deliver to the Company the certificate or
certificates representing shares to be sold, each certificate to be properly
endorsed for transfer.
(3) The Company shall, upon receipt of the certificate or
certificates for the shares to be sold by the subscriber pursuant to this
Subsection, pay the aggregate purchase price therefore and the amount of
reimbursable fees and expense in cash or by other means acceptable to the
subscriber.
4
(vii) Marketability. Prior to becoming a fully reporting company
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the
Company shall maintain adequate current public information in satisfaction of
the requirements for resales of restricted stock pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 15c-2(11)
promulgated under the Exchange Act, including, but not limited to, the
publication over a nationally recognized reporting service or newswire of annual
audited financial statements and semi-annual interim unaudited balance sheets
and income statements. After the Company becomes a fully reporting company, the
Company shall file all reports required under the Exchange Act.
(viii) Stock Splits. In order to induce the subscriber to enter into
this subscription agreement and to facilitate the closing of the transaction
contemplated hereby, the Company represents and warrants to the subscriber that
from and after the date hereof, the Company will not engage in any manner of
reverse split without the prior written consent of the subscriber, which consent
may be withheld for any or no reason.
6. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber. The subscriber hereby
represents and warrants to the Company and to each officer, director, and agent
of the Company that:
(a) Authority. The subscriber has all requisite authority to enter
into this Agreement and to perform all the obligations required to be

opportunity to discuss the Company's business and financial condition,
properties, operations and prospects with the Company's management. The
subscriber has also had an opportunity to ask questions of officers of the
Company, which questions were answered to his satisfaction. The subscriber
understands that such discussions were intended to describe certain
aspects of the Company's business and financial condition, properties,
operations and prospects, but were not a thorough or exhaustive
description.
(c) Representations and Warranties as of Closing. The subscriber
understands that, unless it notifies the Company in writing to the

information received by the subscriber.

the Common Stock involves substantial risks.

knowledge, skill and experience in business, financial and investment
matters so that is capable of

Stock.
(f) Accredited Investor. The subscriber is an "accredited investor"
as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

dividing his shares of Common Stock with others or of reselling his shares
of Common Stock. The subscriber understands that the Common Stock has not
been registered under the Securities Act or any State Securities Laws by
reason of specific exemptions under the provisions thereof which depend in
part upon the investment intent of the subscriber and of the other
representations made by the subscriber in this Agreement. The subscriber

agreements contained in this Agreement (and any supplemental information)
for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the
requirements for such exemptions.
(h) Stock Transfer Restrictions. The subscriber agrees: (i) that it
will not sell, assign, pledge, give, transfer or otherwise dispose of the
Common Stock or any interest therein, or make any offer or attempt to do
any of the foregoing, except pursuant to a registration of the Common
Stock under the Securities Act and all applicable State Securities Laws or
in a transaction which is exempt from the registration provisions of the
Securities Act and all applicable State Securities Laws; and (ii) that the
Company and any transfer agent for the Common Stock shall not be required
to give effect to any purported transfer of any of the Common Stock except
upon compliance with the foregoing provisions.

without just cause by such party to consummate the transactions contemplated

be entitled, in addition to other remedies at law or in equity, to specific
performance of this Agreement by the party that so refused or failed to
