Item
1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
July
10, 2008, NeoMedia Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company")
issued
and sold a secured convertible debenture (the “Debenture”)
to YA
Global Investments, L.P. (the “Investor”)
in the
principal amount of One Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty
Dollars ($137,750). The Debenture shall mature, unless extended by the holder
in
accordance with the terms of the Debenture, on July 10, 2010 (“Maturity
Date”).
The
Debenture shall accrue interest at a rate equal to fifteen percent (15%) per
annum and such interest shall be paid quarterly in arrears beginning on
September 1, 2008 and on the Maturity Date (or sooner as provided therein)
in
cash. At any time after the Transaction Date, the Investor shall be entitled
to
convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and accrued interest
thereon into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at a price
equal to the lesser of $0.01 and eighty percent (80%) of the lowest volume
weighted average price of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days
immediately preceding each conversion date.
The
Company shall not affect any conversion, and the Investor shall not have the
right to convert any portion of the Debenture to the extent that after giving
effect to such conversion, the Investor (together with the Investor’s
affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares
of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
The
Company shall pay an amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus
a
redemption premium equal to twenty percent (20%) of the principal amount being
redeemed, and accrued interest.
In
connection with the Debenture, the Company paid Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000)
directly from the proceeds of the closing to Yorkville Advisors LLC
(“Investment
Manager”)
to
compensate the Investment Manager for monitoring and managing the purchase
and
investment made by the Investor pursuant to the Investment Manager’s existing
advisory obligations to the Investor and paid a nonrefundable structuring and
due diligence fee to the Investment Manager equal to Four Thousand Dollars
($4,000) directly from the proceeds of the closing.
In
case
of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary of the
Company with or into another person, or (2) sale by the Company or any
subsidiary of the Company of more than one-half of the assets of the Company
in
one or a series of related transactions, the Investor shall have the right
to
(A) declare the entire amount due and owing under the Debenture, (B) exercise
its rights available as if an Event of Default has occurred (as such term is
defined in the Debenture), (C) convert the aggregate amount of the Debenture
then outstanding into the shares of stock and other securities, cash and
property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock
following such merger, consolidation or sale, and the Investor shall be entitled
upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount of
securities, cash and property as the shares of Common Stock into which such
aggregate principal amount of the Debenture could have been converted
immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been
entitled or (D) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require the surviving
entity to issue to the Investor a convertible debenture with a principal amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debenture then held by the
Investor, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon,
which such newly issued convertible debenture shall have terms identical
(including with respect to conversion) to the terms of the Debenture, and shall
be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of the Investor of the Debenture
set forth therein and the agreements pursuant to which the Debenture was issued.
The terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms
so
as to continue to give the Investor the right to receive the securities, cash
and property upon any conversion or redemption following such event.
The
Debenture is secured by (a) certain Pledged Property, as such term is defined
in
that certain Security Agreement, dated August 24, 2007, by and among the
Company, each of the Company’s subsidiaries made a party thereto and the
Investor and perfected pursuant to UCC-1 Financing Statements filed with the
Delaware Department of State (the UCC Filing Section) on or about August 24,
2007 and with the Florida Secured Transaction Registry on or about August 24,
2007 and (b) certain Patent Collateral, as such term is defined in that certain
Security Agreement (Patent), dated August 24, 2007, by and among the Company,
each of the Company’s subsidiaries made a party thereto and the
Investor.
