ARTICLE VIII

POST CLOSING COVENANTS OF PARENT

 

Section 8.01 Conversion. At the option of the Equity Holders holding the Notes, upon the earlier of (i) the first and second anniversaries from the Closing Date and the conversion rights attributable to each such period as provided in the Notes; (ii) a Liquidation Event as described below; or (ii) the change of control, or sale, of the Parent (also referred to as “Company”), the dollar value of the Note shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.12 per share (the “Conversion Price”). On the third anniversary of the Note, the entire indebtedness will become due and payable and the Note must be paid by conversion to stock in full.

For purposes of this Section 8.01, “change of control” means the occurrence of any of the following events (whether or not approved by the Board):

(a)

any transaction or series of related transactions (including but not limited to a merger or reorganization) which results in holders of the Company’s capital stock outstanding prior to such event owning less than 50% of either (x) the total voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Company or (y) the total economic ownership of the then outstanding Common Stock of the Company;

(b)

the Company consolidates with or merges or sells, assigns, conveys, transfers, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its assets unless holders of the Company’s capital stock outstanding prior to such event own at least 50% of the surviving or purchasing entity;

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the above, in no event shall any future conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares be deemed a change of control.

 

Also for purposes of this Section 8.01 “sale of the company” means a sale of the Company pursuant to which the acquirer(s) acquire(s) (i) 50.1% of the shares of capital stock of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale or transfer or stock or otherwise), or (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (by merger, consolidation, reorganization, sale of assets, sale of stock or otherwise). The conversion and sale rights under the Note will at all time be subject to Rule 144 or similar rules of the SEC governing restricted securities.

 

Section 8.02 Maintenance of Reserve Shares. The Parent shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock the full number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Notes of the Equity Holders or their assigns, and shall keep the Company’s financial statements current at all times in order to comply with any requirements under Rule 144 for the issuance of free trading shares upon conversion. In the event that the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock necessary to satisfy the full conversion of the Notes, then such failure will constitute an event of default under the Note and entitle Seller to exercise all remedies specified therein, including without limitation seeking recovery for any difference n value in the Stock that may result from a delay in the issue of converted shares. In the event of such failure to have a sufficient number of shares available, the holder of such Note will be entitled, without waiving any remedy for losses arising as a result of such breach, to require the Company to call and hold a meeting of the shareholders within 60 days of such occurrence for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Holder shall have the right to vote at any shareholder meeting or issue arising requiring consent of his shares on an as converted basis. The Company’s Board of Directors shall recommend to shareholders a vote in favor of such proposal and shall vote all shares held by them, in proxy or otherwise, in favor of such proposal. This remedy is not intended to limited the remedies available to the holders of the Notes, but is intended to be in addition to any other remedies, whether in contract, at law or in equity.

Section 8.03 Adjustments to Number of Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each amount of Note value shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

If, after the date of the Notes, the Company (a) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its capital stock, (b) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (c) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issues by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each dollar of Note value shall be adjusted so that the holder of a Note, or part thereof, thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number and kind of shares of capital stock that such holder would have owned immediately following such action had such Note amount been converted immediately prior thereto and the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8.03 shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, or reclassification. Appropriate adjustment shall be made on a Certificate of Designation to give effect to each such change.

 

 

 

In addition to the foregoing, the Board of Directors will execute and deliver at Closing a Certificate pledging it will not amend or modify the Certificate of Designation or other rights associated with Preferred Shares of Stock until the Note has been fully paid by conversion into Common Stock.

 

Section 8.04 Liquidating Event. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company (a “Liquidation Event”), the entire remaining principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on all outstanding Notes under this Agreement may, at the option of the Holder, automatically become immediately due and payable and be immediately convertible by holder into shares of stock without notice of any kind from the holders of such Notes. Each such indebtedness to a Note holder must be paid in stock before the Company may distribute any amounts or property to any Shareholders of the Company.

Section 8.05 Releases of Equity Holders Guarantees. Parent agrees that Parent will use its best efforts to obtain a written release of all personal guarantees of Equity Holders with respect to any indebtedness of FB, including without limitation, the personal guarantee of the Office Lease, the personal guarantee of Equity Holders of any line of credit note or other indebtedness with Patriot Bank, N.A., and the personal guarantee related to computer equipment at the FB premises. If any such Equity Holder personal guarantee is not released within 60 days of the date of Closing, then Parent will pay the indebtedness as necessary to obtain the release of the guarantees. In addition to the foregoing, Parent also indemnifies and holds harmless each Equity Holder of and from any and all damage, loss, costs, expenses, attorney’s fees and all other expenses of litigation that may be incurred in connection with any claim, debt, demand, action, cause of action or suit arising from or in relation to a personal guarantee of an Equity Holder provided in connection with or for the benefit of FB.

Section 8.06 Payment of JW Bones Indebtedness. The Parent will assume liability of the JW Bones indebtedness; however, pursuant to Item 3.01 of the FB Schedule, the Note to the Equity Holders at Closing will be reduced by one-half of the remaining balance of the JW Note. Parent agrees to use its best commercially reasonable efforts to cause JW Bones to agree to reduce the JW Note or reduce the JW Note through judicial action, if in Parent’s sole discretion, a legitimate claim can be made to enforce a reduction in the JW note according to its terms. If any reduction in the JW Note balance is achieved, Equity Holders will share in and receive payment from Parent of one-half the amount of such savings.

Section 8.07 Tax Matters. Filing and Review of Tax Returns. Sellers shall be responsible for preparing and filing all Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to the Company for 2011 and shall also be responsible for payment of related taxes attributable to the Equity Holders ownership of FB in 2011. Thereafter, Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing and filing all other Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to FB and for purposes of Tax Returns only the sale will be treated as having an effective closing of Jan 1, 2012. Any Tax Return relating to FB for any pre-Closing Tax Period shall, unless otherwise required by applicable legal requirements or approved by the Parties, be prepared in accordance with past Tax accounting practices used with respect to the Tax Returns in question. To the extent any items are not covered by past practices, or to the extent such past practices are not permissible under applicable legal requirements, the items may be reported in accordance with any reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by the Party responsible for preparing the Tax Returns. If requested by Seller, Purchaser shall make available to Seller and their representatives for review and comment any Tax Returns and related work papers prepared by Purchaser relating to the Company for any post-Closing period. Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to make such Tax Return and work papers available for review as required under this paragraph sufficiently in advance of the due date for filing such Tax Returns to provide Seller with a meaningful opportunity to analyze and comment on such Tax Returns and have such Tax Returns modified before filing. Purchaser and Seller shall attempt in good faith to resolve any issues arising out of the review of such Tax Returns.
