Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 17, 2014, Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Company”) entered into separate subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreement”) with accredited investors (the “Investors”) relating to the issuance and sale of $6,000,000 of units (the “Units”) at a purchase price of $0.68 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) and a five year warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an initial exercise price of $0.68 per share (such sale and issuance, the “Private Placement”).

 

The Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of the of such Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Preferred Share, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price. The stated value of each Preferred Share is $0.68 and the initial conversion price is $0.68 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events. In addition, in the event the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to issue or sell, shares of Common Stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions. The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Preferred Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such Investor would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%. Each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company, and shall have the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such holder’s Preferred Shares, provided in no event shall the holders be entitled to cast votes in excess of the number of votes that holders would be entitled to cast if the Preferred Shares were converted at $0.59 per share (equal to the market price as determined by NASDAQ on the trading date immediately prior to closing) (the “Voting Floor”). The Voting Floor shall only be removed in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”), the Company is prohibited from incurring debt or liens, or entering into new financing transactions without the consent of the Lead Investor (as defined in the Subscription Agreement). The Preferred Shares bear no interest.

 

The Warrants are exercisable, at any time, following the date the Warrants are issued, at a price of $0.68 per share, subject to adjustment, and expire five years from the date of issuance. The holders may, subject to certain limitations, exercise the Warrants on a cashless basis. The Company is prohibited from effecting an exercise of any Warrant to the extent that, as a result of any such exercise, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such Warrant, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%. The Warrants are also subject to certain adjustments upon certain actions by the Company as outlined in the Warrants, including, for twenty-four months following the initial issuance date, the issuance or sale, or deemed issuance or sale, by the Company of shares of its Common Stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, as a result of which the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions.

 

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company also elected two new members to the Board of Directors upon the resignation of two outgoing members of the board of directors. The Subscription Agreement also provides the Investors with the rights of participation in future securities offerings of the Company. The Subscription Agreement also contains other customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and the Investors. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Subscription Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

 

The proceeds of the offering were deposited into an escrow account (the “Escrow Amount”) with Signature Bank, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) for the Company pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), dated December 17, 2014, by and between the Company, the Lead Investor and the Escrow Agent and certificates representing the Preferred Shares and Warrants purchased in the Private Placement were deposited with the Company’s corporate secretary (the “Securities Escrow Agent”) to be held in escrow subject to similar conditions as are provided in the Escrow Agreement. Upon the closing of the Private Placement on December 17, 2014 (such date, the “Closing Date”), $1,000,000 of the Escrow Amount was released by the Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of $1,000,000 of Units by the Securities Escrow Agent. Following the Closing Date, in one or multiple tranches, the remaining $5,000,000 will be released (the “Subsequent Release”) by the Escrow Agent to the Investors in exchange for the release of $5,000,000 of Units by the Securities Escrow Agent, provided that the approval of NASDAQ and the Company’s stockholders has been obtained and, either, (i) the Lead Investor has approved the release, (ii) the approval of the requisite number of Investors has been obtained, (iii) the Company has executed definitive binding documents for certain transactions, as described in the Subscription Agreement, and such transaction(s) are to close contemporaneously with the release, following approval by the Company’s stockholders or (iv) the following conditions are present: (a) nine months has elapsed from the Closing Date and release is approved by each of the directors appointed at closing (being the non-continuing directors); (b) no subsequent release of the Escrow Amount has been consummated; and (c) no more than $1,000,000 is released (the “Release Conditions”). In the event that on and as of the twelve month anniversary of the Closing Date none of the Release Conditions have been satisfied, the Escrow Agent shall return $5,000,000 to the Investors, without interest or deduction, and the Securities Escrow Agent shall return the Units to the Company for cancellation.

 

 
 

 

The offering is being made pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company has undertaken, pursuant to the registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) between the Company and each of the Investors, dated December 17, 2014, to file a registration statement to register the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the Preferred Shares, within forty-five days following the Closing Date and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the Preferred Shares, have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. In the event the Company fails to file, or obtain effectiveness of, such registration statement within the forty-five day period, the Company is obligated to liquidated damages to the Investors for every thirty-days during which such filing is not made and/or effectiveness obtained, such fee being subject to certain exceptions.
