Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Note Purchase Agreement and Secured Convertible Notes

 

On December 28, 2012 (the “ Closing Date ”), Universal Business Payment Solutions Acquisition Corporation (“ UBPS ” or “ we ” or “ us ” or “ our ”) entered into a Secured Convertible Note Agreement (the “ Note Agreement ”) with Special Opportunities Fund, Inc., R8 Capital Partners, LLC, Bulldog Investors General Partnership, Ira Lubert, Mendota Insurance Company and American Services Insurance Company, Inc. (collectively, the “ Note Investors ”) interested investors pursuant to which, UBPS issues $10 million in promissory notes secured by 50% of UBPS’s ownership of JetPay, LLC (“ JetPay ”). In connection with the Note Agreement, the Company entered into separate Secured Convertible Promissory Notes with each of the Investors (the “ Notes ”). Amounts outstanding under the Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum. The Notes mature on December 31, 2014. The Notes are not prepayable.

 

Pursuant to the Notes, the Note Investors will be entitled to convert all or any amounts outstanding under the Notes into common stock of UBPS, par value $0.001 (“ Common Stock ”) at a conversion price of $5.15 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

 

In connection with the Note Agreement, UBPS entered into Registration Rights Agreements (the “ Note Registration Rights Agreements ”) on the Closing Date with each of the Note Investors, pursuant to which UBPS agreed to provide registration rights with respect to the shares issuable upon conversion whereby the Note Investors would be entitled up to three “demand” registration requests and unlimited “piggy back” registration requests. To the extent a registration for the shares has not been declared effective by June 30, 2013, the conversion price will be reduced by $0.15 per share with additional reductions of $0.05 per share for every 30 days thereafter until a registration has been declared effective.

 

Pursuant to the Notes, the Note Investors will be entitled to convert all or any amounts outstanding under the Notes into common stock of UBPS, par value $0.001 (“ Common Stock ”) at a conversion price of $5.15 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

In connection with the Notes, certain stockholders of UBPS agreed to transfer up to approximately 840,000 shares of Common Stock that they acquired prior to UBPS’s initial public offering to certain of the Note Investors. Such shares were previously held in an escrow account established at the time of UBPS’s initial public offering pursuant to Stock Escrow Agreements, each dated as of May 13, 2011, among each such stockholder, UBPS and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Following the proposed transfers, such shares will no longer be held in escrow.

JetPay also agreed to compensate the Payees for any negative tax consequences as a result of the note remaining outstanding after December 31 2012. Amounts outstanding under the loan will be convertible at the holders’ option into Common Stock at a conversion price of $6.00 per share, unless JetPay is in default under the loan agreement, in which case, amounts outstanding under the loan agreement can be converted at the lower of (i) $6.00 per share and (ii) the average trading price of the Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the delivery of notice requesting such conversion.

To date, UBPS has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues, except interest income. UBPS's entire activity since inception has been to search for targets for a business combination.

For the period from November 12, 2010 (inception) to September 30, 2012, UBPS had a net loss of ($615), consisting of interest income of $22 less operating expenses of ($637). For the twelve months ended September 30, 2011, UBPS had a net loss of ($90), consisting of interest income of $7 and expenses of ($97).

 

Financial Condition and Liquidity

   

On May 13, 2011 UBPS consummated its initial public offering (the “ Offering ”) of 12,000,000 units at a price of $6.00 per unit. Simultaneously with the Offering, certain of the initial stockholders in UBPS and the underwriters of the Offering purchased 6,960,000 warrants at $0.50 per warrant (for an aggregate purchase price of $3,480,000) from the Company. UBPS raised aggregate gross proceeds of $75,480,000 from the Offering and the warrant offering, of which $72,720,000 is being held in a trust account for our benefit. UBPS intend to use this cash, our capital stock, incurred debt, or a combination of cash, capital stock, and debt, in effecting our initial business combination.

 

UBPS has not conducted any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our entire activity since inception up to the closing of the Offering was in preparation for that event. After the Offering, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates, and UBPS will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial business combination. UBPS incurred increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

 

UBPS incurred a net loss of ($704) for the period from November 12, 2010 (inception) through September 30, 2012. Until UBPS enters into a business combination, UBPS will not generate revenues.

 

As of September 30, 2012, UBPS had approximately $23,000 in its operating bank account. On May 13, 2011, after the consummation of the Offering, approximately $600,000 was placed into its operating bank account to be available for use by management to cover operating costs and the costs associated with identifying a target business and negotiating a business combination. Of this amount, approximately $340,000 was used to pay accrued offering costs and $125,000 was used to repay notes held by certain of UBPS’s initial stockholders.

 

UBPS used the approximately $69,000 of remaining net proceeds not held in the trust account plus the interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that were released to us to fund our working capital requirements. As of September 30, 2012, U.S Treasury Bills with maturities less than six month were approximately yielding under .05%. UBPS believes such rates are representative of those UBPS may receive on the balance of the trust account. From December 6, 2010 through September 30, 2012, UBPS issued a series of principal amount unsecured promissory notes to UBPS Services, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Shah totaling $355,000. These notes are non-interest bearing and are payable on the earlier of their anniversary or the consummation of an initial business combination.

The net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting offering expenses of approximately $473,000 and underwriting discounts of $2,160,000, were approximately $69,366,994. Of this amount, $69,240,000, plus the $3,480,000 UBPS received from the warrant offering, was being held in the trust account. The remaining net proceeds not in trust were being used for working capital purposes. To the extent that Common Stock was used in whole or in part as consideration to effect a business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target’s business operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Components of Revenue and Expenses

 

Revenues

 

JetPay’s revenues fall into two categories: transaction processing revenue and merchant discount revenue. JetPay’s processing revenues consist of billings of transaction fees to its merchant and independent sales organization (“ ISO ”) customers. JetPay’s discount revenues are generally a fixed percentage of the merchant’s dollar volume. Merchant billings primarily consist of transaction fees and discount fees, which are a percentage of the dollar amount of each credit or debit transaction. JetPay derives the balance of its merchant billings from a variety of fixed transaction or service fees, and fees for other miscellaneous services, such as handling charge-backs. Interchange costs are set by the card networks, and are paid based upon a percentage of transaction amounts and / or a fixed price per transaction. JetPay refers to the ratio of processing revenues to the dollar amount of card transactions processed as the “margin.” If margin increases, processing revenues will tend to increase accordingly. Further, both the number of merchants who process transactions, and the average dollar amount of transactions processed per merchant, will impact the total transaction volume and thus the total processing revenues. As such, growth in JetPay’s merchant count and / or growth in the same store transaction volume will also drive JetPay’s processing revenue growth. Revenues are recorded at the time service is provided.

 

Expenses

 

The most significant components of operating expenses are salaries and other employment costs. These costs are largely fixed in nature, increasing slightly with the growth in numbers of customers, but tending to grow with inflation. Assessments and bank costs include assessment fees payable to card associations, which are generally a percentage of card volume, and bank sponsorship costs which are largely based upon transaction counts and volumes. General and administrative expenses include fixed costs such as occupancy and office costs, outside services, and depreciation and amortization expense, which is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. General and administrative expenses also include charge-back losses, which vary over the long term based upon transaction volume processed by JetPay’s merchants, but can vary from period to period depending upon specific events in that period. Interest expense is primarily a result of a loan to buy out the interest of a former partner of JetPay. This expense is fixed based upon a schedule of increasing interest rates over the life of the loan.

Comparison of years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010

 

JetPay’s processing revenues increased from $15,608 in 2010 to $17,473 in 2011, or 11.9%, and were driven by an increase in bank card volume of $382 million from 2010 to 2011, or 17.5%. The primary driver was an increase in the ISO business of $3,057, or 70.8%, as JetPay added 20 ISOs (going from 24 at year-end 2010 to 44 at year-end 2011). As the ISOs signed in 2010 added more merchants to JetPay. The direct merchant business line revenue growth was essentially flat from 2010 to 2011, despite adding another 517 merchants for a total of 3,027 at the end of 2011 versus 2,510 at the end of 2010, as margins declined among some larger customers. There was a decrease of 18.1% of revenues (from $6,388 in 2010 to $5,231 in 2011) for processing-only customers, as JetPay focused more on the ISO business. The two volume-driven costs (Costs of Goods Sold and Operating Expenses) combined increased 7.6% from 2010 to 2011, while Selling and Administrative Expenses increased 64.3%, or $1,864 from 2010 to 2011. The primary driver of this expense was a one-time loss of $1,908 with a merchant that delivered fraudulent transactions. This merchant was covered under JetPay’s chargeback insurance and insurance was been notified of a potential loss, and while management expects to be covered, JetPay elected to write this balance off in 2011. Without this one-time event, Selling and Administrative Expenses would have increased $250, or 8.6%. As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased from $3,345 in 2010 to $2,152 in 2011, or 35.6%. Without the one-time loss expense, net income would have increased from $3,345 in 2010 to 3,766 in 2011, a 12.6% increase.

Comparison of nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

 

JetPay’s processing revenues increased from $12,970 in 2011 to $14,082 in 2012, or 8.6%.The primary driver was an increase in the ISO business as JetPay as new ISOs signed in 2010 and 2011 added more merchants to JetPay. The direct merchant business line revenue declined slightly despite adding additional merchants, as JetPay lost a large customer (see Direct Air discussion below). There was also an increase in revenues processing-only customers as processing volumes increased. The two volume-driven costs (Costs of Goods Sold and Operating Expenses) combined increased $1,350, or 17.9% from 2011 to 2012, while Selling and Administrative Expenses increased over 100%, or $2,490 from 2010 to 2011. The primary drivers of these expenses were one-time costs and expenses related to Direct Air, as well as approximately $300 related to the proposed transaction. Direct Air, a JetPay customer since 2004, suddenly ceased operations on March 14, 2012 and declared bankruptcy. While JetPay and its sponsor bank have catastrophic insurance on this merchant, the resulting chargebacks from consumers were being funded until such time as the insurance claim can be validated. The insurance has a $250 deductible and a $25,000 limit. To date, JetPay has incurred $1,694 in losses, which are composed of $250 for the deductible, $911 for chargebacks over the $25,000 limit plus $532 related legal expense. As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased from $2,884 in 2011 to $132 in 2012.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2012, December 31, 2011, JetPay had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.8 million and $1.8 million respectively, of which $0.1 million and $0.1 million respectively was restricted cash. The decrease in cash at September 30, 2012 was a result of the Direct Air loss detailed above. JetPay expects that its cash flow from operations and proceeds from borrowings under JetPay’ lines of credit will be its primary sources of liquidity and will be sufficient to fund JetPay’ cash requirements for the next twelve months. See “ Contractual Obligations ” below for a description of future required uses of cash.

 

Operating activities

 

Net cash provided by JetPay’ operating activities was $0.2 million, and $2.9 million during the nine month period ended Sept 30, 2012, and 2011 respectively. Major differences between JetPay’s net income and cash provided by operating activities are typically depreciation and amortization, along with the timing differences between when JetPay recognizes revenues and expenses and when those revenues and expenses are collected or paid.

 

Investing activities

 

JetPay’ net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million, and $0.2 million during the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 respectively. Net cash used in investing activities consisted of property and equipment expenditures. JetPay currently has no material capital spending or purchase commitments, but expects to continue to engage in capital spending in the ordinary course of business.

 

Financing activities

 

JetPay used cash for financing activities of $0.6 million, and $2.2 million during the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 respectively, consisting of repayments on JetPay’s loan and distributions to JetPay’s equity holders.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Reserve for Charge-back Losses

 

Disputes between a cardholder and a merchant periodically arise as a result of, among other things, cardholder dissatisfaction with merchandise quality or merchant services. Such disputes may not be resolved in the merchant’s favor. In these cases, the transaction is “charged back” to the merchant, which means the purchase price is refunded to the customer through the merchant’s bank and charged to the merchant. If the merchant has inadequate funds, JetPay must bear the credit risk for the full amount of the transaction. JetPay evaluates the risk for such transactions and estimates the potential loss for charge-backs based primarily on historical experience and records a loss reserve accordingly. JetPay believes its reserve for charge-back losses is adequate to cover both the known probable losses and the incurred but not yet reported losses at the balance sheet dates.

 

Unsettled Merchant Accounts

 

In certain cases, JetPay withholds funds payable to merchants while it verifies transaction activity. In other cases, JetPay withholds funds payable to merchants in order to provide a reserve fund for potential merchant charge-back losses. In each case, JetPay records an unsettled merchant account liability for the amounts payable to the merchants. JetPay also establishes cash reserves in segregated reserve merchant bank accounts to secure JetPay’s potential liability with their acquiring banks, which are classified as restricted cash on JetPay’s balance sheets.

 

Seasonality

 

JetPay’s revenues and earnings are impacted by the volume of consumer usage of credit and debit cards at the point of sale. For example, JetPay experiences increased point of sale activity during the first and second quarters due to season volumes of some merchants in JetPay’s portfolio. Revenues during the first and second quarters tend to increase in comparison to the remaining two quarters of JetPay’s fiscal year on a same store basis.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

JetPay does not have transactions, arrangements and other relationships with unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to affect JetPay’s liquidity or capital resources. JetPay has no special purpose or limited purpose entities that provide off-balance sheet financing, liquidity or market or credit risk support, engage in leasing, hedging, research and development services, or other relationships that expose JetPay to liability that is not reflected on the face of the financial statements.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

JetPay’s material contractual obligations which will impact JetPay’s cash flows in future periods are JetPay’s loan to its former partner (which matures in 2016), and JetPay’s operating lease commitments, which are summarized in note 7 to JetPay’s annual financial statements. JetPay intends to pay off the loan to its former partner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement. As of December 31, 2011, these obligations were as follows:

Effects of Inflation

 

JetPay’s monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash and receivables, are not significantly affected by inflation. JetPay’s non-monetary assets, consisting primarily of intangible assets, are not affected by inflation. JetPay believes that replacement costs of equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements will not materially affect JetPay’s operations. However, the rate of inflation affects JetPay’s expenses, such as those for employee compensation and other operating expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the price of services offered by JetPay. The rate of inflation can also affect JetPay’s revenues by affecting JetPay’s merchant charge volume and corresponding changes to processing revenue.

ADC AND PTFS’S BUSINESSES

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

ADC serves approximately 5,000 clients and has focused on providing customized payroll solutions tailored to the specific needs of its clients. The needs of most clients are met through the many options and reporting capabilities available in its standard comprehensive system. For the more complex clients, numerous custom interfaces have been developed to integrate with general ledger systems, time and attendance systems and other in-house HR systems. ADC’s business strategy is focused on achieving strong long-term financial performance by providing high-quality, timely, accurate, and affordable services while steadily growing its client base.

 

A related company, PTFS, prepares, processes and files tax deposits and required federal, state and local payroll tax returns exclusively for clients of AD Computer. Approximately 4,400 clients of ADC use the services of PTFS. A separate trust account is maintained by PTFS, which is reconciled on a daily basis. PTFS is focused on continuing to grow its client base by providing a comprehensive solution to the tax filing and deposit requirements in a complex regulatory environment.

 

Revenues

 

The majority of ADC’s revenue is derived from its payroll processing operations, which includes the calculation, preparation, collection and delivery of employer payroll obligations and the production of internal accounting records and management reports. ADC experiences increased revenues at calendar year-end due to additional employer annual processing and filing requirements.

 

PTFS pays a portion of the fees it earns to ADC. In exchange for these fees, ADC provides PTFS with all of its clients and all of the information necessary to prepare tax deposits and filings. The fee payable by PTFS to ADC was equal to 50% of all fees collected by PTFS through December 31, 2010 and 45% thereafter.

 

The majority of PTFS’s revenue is derived from fee income as a result of the preparation of federal, state and local payroll tax returns and the collection and remittance of clients’ payroll tax obligations. PTFS experiences increased revenues at calendar year-end due to additional employer annual filing requirements.

 

PTFS’s trust account earnings represents the interest earned on the daily trust fund balance. This amount can fluctuate throughout the year based on the amount held in trust and changes in the corresponding applicable interest rate.

13
 

 

Expenses

 

The most significant component of ADC’s operating expenses is payroll and related expenses. Payroll expense is largely fixed in nature, but tends to increase with capacity levels and inflation. A significant component of payroll expense represents shareholder bonuses, which are reflected in the year-end results of operations.

 

Another significant component of ADC’s operating expenses is cost of goods sold, which is primarily comprised of the direct expenses of the various payroll-processing departments within ADC. These expenses vary directly with payroll processing revenue.

 

ADC’s general and administrative expenses include items such as delivery, outside services, rent, office expense, insurance, sales and marketing, professional services and other costs incurred to support its business.

 

PTFS’s significant operating expenses are split between outside services and payroll and related expenses. Outside services represent the fees paid to ADC in exchange for all of PTFS’ clients and all the information necessary to prepare tax deposits and filings. Payroll expense is largely fixed in nature, but tends to increase with inflation. A significant component of payroll expense represents shareholder bonuses, which are reflected in the year-end results of operations.

 

PTFS’s general and administrative expenses include items such as office expense, computer program costs, insurance, professional services and other costs incurred to support its business.

AD Computer’s payroll processing revenues increased from $9,443,000 in 2010 to $9,793,000 in 2011, or 3.7%, due primarily to increased payroll processing as a result of steady, organic growth in its client base. Fees received from PTFS decreased from $1,189,000 in 2010 to $1,138,000 in 2011, or 4.3%, due primarily to ADC’s reduced share of PTFS fees from 50% in 2010 to 45% in 2011, offset partially by an increase in the overall fees earned by PTFS.

 

ADC’s cost of goods sold, which varies directly with payroll processing fees, increased from $4,173,000 in 2010 to $4,295,000 in 2011, or 2.9%, due primarily to increased payroll processing as a result of steady, organic growth in its client base. Payroll and related expenses increased from $5,285,000 in 2010 to $5,544,000 in 2011, or 4.9%, due primarily to increased compensation and benefit costs. General and administrative expense remained relatively unchanged from 2010 to 2011.

ADC’s payroll processing revenues increased from $6.860,000 in 2011 to $6,982,000 in 2012, or 1.8%, due primarily to increased payroll processing as a result of steady, organic growth in its client base. Fees received from PTFS remained relatively unchanged from 2011 to 2012.

 

ADC’s cost of goods sold, which varies directly with payroll processing fees, increased from $3.072,000 in 2011 to $3,309,000 in 2012, or 7.7%, due primarily to increased payroll processing as a result of steady, organic growth in its client base. Payroll and related expenses increased from $2,307,000 in 2011 to $2,467,000 in 2012, or 6.9%, due primarily to increased compensation and benefit costs. General and administrative expense increased from $760,000 in 2011 to $988,000 in 2012, or 30.0%, due primarily to increased professional fees and depreciation expense.

Comparison of years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010

 

PTFS’s fee income increased from $2,354,000 in 2010 to $2,454,000 in 2011, or 4.2%, due primarily to steady, organic growth in its client base. Trust account earnings decreased from $384,000 in 2010 to $299,000 in 2011, or 22.1%, due primarily to the declining interest-rate environment.

 

PTFS’s outside services expense decreased from $1,189,000 in 2010 to $1,138,000 in 2011, or 4.3%, due primarily to AD Computer’s reduced share of PTFS fees from 50% in 2010 to 45% in 2011, offset partially by PTFS’s increased fee income. Payroll and related expenses increased from $1,156,000 in 2010 to $1,209,000 in 2011, or 4.6%, due primarily to increased compensation and benefit costs. General and administrative expense decreased from $343,000 in 2010 to $331,000 in 2011, or 3.5%, due primarily to decreased computer programming costs, offset partially by increased office expense.

 

Comparison of nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

 

PTFS’s fee income increased from $1,842,000 in 2011 to $1,922,000 in 2012, or 4.3%, due primarily to steady, organic growth in its client base. Trust account earnings decreased from $243,000 in 2011 to $199,000 in 2012, or 18.1%, due primarily to the declining interest-rate environment.

 

PTFS’s outside services expense remained relatively unchanged from 2011 to 2012. Payroll and related expenses increased from $566,000 in 2011 to $631,000 in 2012, or 11.5%, due primarily to increased compensation and benefit costs. General and administrative expense increased from $237,000 in 2011 to $350,000 in 2012, or 47.7%, due primarily to increased professional fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, AD Computer had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively. As of the same periods, PTFS held restricted cash for payroll taxes payable of $44.2 million and $43.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2012, PTFS held unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $0.4 million, and an immaterial amount was held as of December 31, 2011 respectively. Additionally, ADC held no debt as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 respectively, and PTFS had an immaterial amount of debt as of the same periods.

 

ADC and PTFS expect that cash flows from operations will continue to be the primary source of liquidity and will be sufficient to fund normal business operations and capital expenditures for current and planned operations. Neither ADC nor PTFS have any external lines of credit or other external financing arrangements with any financial institutions. As such, the companies are dependent on continued cash flows from operations to fund normal business operations and capital expenditures.

 

Operating activities

 

Net cash provided by ADC’s operating activities was $0.4 million and $0.4 million during the first nine months of 2012 and calendar 2011 respectively. Major differences between ADC’s net income and cash provided by operating activities are typically depreciation and amortization, along with the timing differences between when ADC recognizes revenues and expenses and when those revenues and expenses are collected or paid. The decrease in ADC’s operating cash flows for calendar 2011 resulted mainly from fluctuations in operating assets and liabilities, decreased net income adjusted for non-cash items and increased payments for compensation.

 

Net cash provided by PTFS’s operating activities was immaterial during the first nine months of 2012 and calendar 2011.

 

Investing activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities primarily consists of purchases of property and equipment. The amounts purchased by ADC totaled $0.4 million during the first nine months of 2012, and were immaterial for calendar 2011. PTFS did not have any investing activities during the same periods.

 

Financing activities

 

ADC used cash for financing activities of $0.1 million during the first nine months of 2012, and $0.2 million during calendar 2011, consisting of distributions to ADC’s shareholders. PTFS used an immaterial amount of cash for financing activities during the same periods, consisting of distributions to PTFS’s shareholders.

ADC maintains deposits in excess of federally insured limits with its financial institution. These deposits may exceed the amount of any insurance provided.

 

Restricted cash

 

PTFS has entered into a cash management agreement with its financial institution. The agreement provides for the daily collected balance within the restricted trust account to be invested in a repurchase agreement at a variable rate.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates.

 

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

 

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock as of December 28, 2012, by:

 

  - each person known by the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of its outstanding shares of common stock;

  - each of the Company’s officers and directors; and

  - all of the Company’s officers and directors as a group.

 

As used in the table below, the term beneficial ownership with respect to the Company’s common stock consists of sole or shared voting power (which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares of the Company’s common stock) or sole or shared investment power (which includes the power to dispose, or direct the disposition of, shares of the Company’s common stock) through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, including a right to acquire such power(s) during the 60 days following December 28, 2012. Unless otherwise indicated, the Company believes that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them.

 

The Company has based its calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership on 11,519,094 shares of its common stock outstanding on December 28, 2012.

Price Performance Graph

 

The graph below compares the cumulative total return of the Common Stock from August 8, 2011, the date that the Common Stock first became separately tradable, through December 27, 2012 with the comparable cumulative return of two indices, the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index. The graph plots the growth in value of an initial investment of $100 in UBPS Common Stock, the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index and the S&P 500 Index over the indicated time periods, and assuming reinvestment of all dividends, if any, paid on its securities. UBPS has not paid any cash dividends and, therefore, the cumulative total return calculation for UBPS is based solely upon stock price appreciation and not upon reinvestment of cash dividends. The stock price performance shown on the graph is not necessarily indicative of future price performance.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

UBPS’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that all of its directors, officers, employees and agents will be entitled to be indemnified by us to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

 

Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

 

(a) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust account or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

20
 

 

(b) A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust account or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

(c) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

(d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.


(e) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

 

(f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

 

(g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust account or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this section.

21
 

 

(h) For purposes of this section, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

 

(i) For purposes of this section, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this section.

 

(j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

 

(k) The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation’s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees).

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

Paragraph A of Article Ten of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides:

 

The Corporation shall promptly indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of an amendment of the DGCL, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), any person (an “ Indemnitee ”) who was or is made, or is threatened to be made, a party or witness or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed investigation, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether external or internal to the Corporation (a “ Proceeding ”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or, while a director or an officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or the like, officer or the like, employee, member, trustee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other enterprise or association (including, but not limited to, service with respect to employee benefit plans) (any such entity, an “ Other Entity ”), against all liability and loss (including, but not limited to, expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnitee (i) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (ii) relates to counterclaims or affirmative defenses asserted by a person seeking indemnification in an action brought against such person, (iii) relates to any proceeding brought by a person seeking indemnification or payment under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering such person or (iv) the Proceeding (or part thereof) relates to the enforcement of the Corporation’s obligations under this Article IX .

22
 

 

The Article Seven of the amended and restated bylaws of UBPS provides:

 

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

 

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Note D To record repayment of note payable to affiliated company controlled by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of UBPS $335,000
   
Note E Represents the pro forma entries to record the acquisition of JetPay and ADC, recording the Common Stock issued and the purchase price of the acquisitions in excess of the fair value of acquired assets.
   
  The combination constitutes an acquisition method transaction under US GAAP, with UBPS acquiring JetPay and ADC. The cash and securities issued to the stockholders of the acquired companies are shown in the following table.
   
  In addition to the securities to be issued upon completion of the acquisition, the sellers will be paid additional cash and Common Stock if certain conditions are met.
   
  At closing of the proposed transaction, certain amounts of the cash and Common Stock consideration to be paid to the sellers will be held in escrow to be released to the sellers in eighteen months from closing less amounts withheld for any claims against the seller company. These escrowed amounts are not under the control of UBPS and are not forfeitable, and have not been included in the Pro Forma Balance Sheet.
   
  In accordance with US GAAP, the securities issued to the sellers of JetPay and ADC have been valued at fair value, the best measure of which is the closing market price of the Common Stock on December 28, 2012, which was $5.47 (as of December 28, 2012).

 

 
 

 

   
  Of the deferred consideration due the sellers in the future, $2,000,000 is guaranteed to be paid and has been recorded in the Pro Forma Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2012. The balance of deferred consideration due the sellers in the future, of $5 million in cash and $5 million in Common Stock valued at $6.00 per share is subject to conditions that Management believes are not likely to be achieved and have not been recorded in the Pro Forma Balance Sheet at September 30, 2012.
   
  UBPS assumed a $9,000,000 bank loan obtained by the ADC Entities.
   
  The interest rate on the $9,000,000 bank loan is 4.0% per annum with a term of 7 years with principal payment of equal monthly installments over 7 years.
   
  UBPS incurrred commitment fees of $22,500 which is being amortized over 7 years.
   
  UBPS assumed amounts owed to a former owner of JetPay in the amount of $6,000,000 evidenced by a note payable on the books of JetPay. The interest rate on the note is 9.5% with monthly principal payments of $32,244. This note is convertible into shares of UBPS Common Stock at $6.00 per share unless the note is in default in which case it can be converted at the current market price.
   
  UBPS issued an unsecured 3-year note to a former owner of JetPay in the amount of $2,331,639 at an interest rate of 5%. Principal and interest on the note is due in 3 years.
   
  UBPS issued $10,000,000 in 2-year notes. These notes are secured by a portion of UBPS's equity interest in JetPay. The interest rate on the notes is 12% per annum, payable quarterly. These notes are convertible into Common Stock at $5.15 per share (subject to certain adjustments).
   
  UBPS is not assuming certain obligations of the acquired companies and accordingly, these obligations, amounting to $51,595 at September 30, 2012 are being eliminated under the acquisition method.

    $ 32,927,155     $ 21,553,402     $ 54,480,557  

 

While a final determination of the value of identifiable intangibles has not been completed, management has made an initial determination that approximately $36,945,000 of the excess of cost over the net book value of the net assets should be allocated to identifiable intangible assets as shown in the table below:

 

    Estimated Identifiable Intangible Assets  
                   
      JetPay       ADC       Total  
                         
Software and technology   $ 2,500,000     $ 3,500,000     $ 6,000,000  
                         
Customer relationships and related covenants     15,749,000       15,196,000       30,945,000  
                         
   Total initially estimated identifiable intangible assets   $ 18,249,000     $ 18,696,000     $ 36,945,000  

 

 

Management has also made the initial determination that all other assets and liabilities to be acquired are primarily estimated to be stated at their fair values, which approximates their recorded cost.

 

Based on the above estimate of identifiable intangibles, the unidentified excess of purchase price over fair value of assets acquired is as shown below and has been recorded as goodwill:

 

Total excess of purchase price over fair value of assets acquired      
    $ 54,480,557  
         
Less estimated identified intangibles:        
  Software and technology     6,000,000  
  Customer relationships and related covenants     30,945,000  
         
Unidentified excess of purchase price over fair value of assets acquired (goodwill)        
    $ 17,535,557  

 

  Management believes the technology inherent in each of the companies and not recognized on the books of the companies has substantial unrecognized value. Their initial determination is based on their estimate of the replacement cost of the scalable technology being acquired.
   
  In addition, management has made an initial determination that the value of customer relationships, based on the nature of contracts with customers and expected future revenue streams and related non-compete covenants. Their analysis was based on the estimated future gross profit generated by existing customer and relationships, after applying historical attrition rate of customer and clients and applying a modest estimate of organic growth from remaining customers and discounting the results by 35%, which management believes is a fair representation of the risk structure of the businesses to be acquired.
   
  The initial values to be attributed to the identified intangibles are subject to formal appraisal and valuation subsequent to the closing of the transaction and are subject to change.

 

 
 

 

In addition, the warrant holders approved a conversion of all outstanding UBPS warrants on a basis of 1 share for each .1333 warrants.

 

This entry records the conversion of the 18,960,000 warrants to 2,257,359 shares

  

Note F The capital accounts of UBPS post transaction reflect the issuance of Common Stock to the sellers of JetPay and ADC valued at fair market value ($5.47 on December 28, 2012, before the closing of the transaction) resulting in capital at closing and included in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance  as shown below:

UBPS capital, post transaction   $ 4,465,011     $ 29,875,250  

 

Note G Because there is no step up in tax basis due to the nature of the transactions, there is a permanent difference between amortization recorded for GAAP and tax. This permanent tax difference will be reduced for annual amortization of the amortizable intangibles recorded in the transaction and will be reduced only for impairment of Goodwill or sale of the assets.
   
  This entry recording the long term deferred tax liability reflects the permanent long term deferred tax liability.

 

Total identified and unidentified intangibles   $ 54,927,730  
Estimated marginal tax rate     40 %
         
Long-term deferred tax liability   $ 21,971,092

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations

 

Note 1 To eliminate the administrative fee (year ended December 31, 2011 - $78,599; nine months ended September 30, 2012 - $67,500) that per agreement was paid to a company affiliated with the Chairman and CEO of UBPS. This agreement terminated upon consummation of a business combination.
   
Note 2 Based on contractual agreements with the sellers and with certain officers who will continue to be employees of UBPS, salaries and related costs will be reduced as shown in the following table and are reflected in the pro forma income statements:

 

    Twelve months     Nine months  
    ended     ended  
    December 31,     September 30,  
    2011     2012  
                 
Salary, bonus and related tax saving - ADC   $ 2,762,764     $ 1,496,495  

 

  The savings in ADC for the year ended December 31, 2011 reflects an agreed upon reduction in compensation for the owners and certain executives who will remain with the company from a total of $3,530,238 (including bonuses) to a total of $767,474,  reflecting the new  employment agreements had they been in effect for the year ended December 31, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compensation to these same individuals would have been reduced from $2,072,073 to $575,606.
   
Note 3 UBPS is assuming a $9,000,000 bank loan obtained by ADC and is assuming a note payable to a former owner of JetPay in the amount of $6,000,000.
   
  The interest rate on the $9,000,000 bank loan is 4.0% per annum with a term of 7 years with principal payment of equal monthly installments over 7 years.
   
  UBPS will incur commitment fees $22,500 which is being amortized over 7 years.
   
  UBPS is also assuming amounts owed to a former owner of JetPay in the amount of $6,000,000 evidenced by a note payable on the books of JetPay. The interest rate on the note is 9.5% for the first 180 days and then increases to 13.5% thereafter with monthly principal payments of $32,244. This note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at $6.00 per share unless the Note is in default in which case it can be converted at the current market price.
   
  UBPS issued an unsecured 3-year note to a former owner of JetPay in the amount of $2,331,639 at an interest rate of 5%. Principal and interest on the note is due in 3 years.
   
  UBPS issued $10,000,000 in 2-year notes. These notes are secured by a portion of UBPS's interest in JetPay. The interest rate on the notes is 12% per annum, payable quarterly. These notes are convertible into Common Stock at $5.15 per share.
   
  Interest and fee expense on the bank loan and notes payable assumed by the company of $2,252,214 and $1,684,936 has been recorded for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 respectively, including fees of $3,214 and $2,411 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and nine months ended September 30, 2012 respectively.
   
Note 4 Earnings per share is based on the weighted shares that would have been outstanding assuming the business combination was effectuated on January 1, 2011 and January 1, 2012. In addition, it was assumed that the initial public offering of 12,000,000 shares occurred prior to January 1, 2011. Shares repurchased during calendar year 2011 and 2012 were weighted based on the trade date.
   
  In addition to the shares issued, 833,333 shares of Common Stock are contingently due to the sellers in the combination, based on the occurrence of certain events in the future. Since those events are in the future and are not certain at the present time, the shares contingently issuable have not been included in either basic or diluted earnings per share.
   
  In addition, the warrant holders approved a conversion of all outstanding UBPS warrants on a basis of 1 share of Common Stock for each .1333 warrants. This converts the 18,960,000 warrants to 2,257,359 shares.
   
  UBPS's historical statement of operations includes a presentation of earnings per share for Common Stock excluding public shares subject to possible redemption. Since any redemptions will be a one-time event occurring at closing, pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share is presented including common shares which are no longer subject to redemption, and after the redemption of 9,994,625 Public Shares.

 

 
 

 

  Pro forma net income per share was calculated by dividing pro forma net income by the weighted average number
  of shares as follows:

 

    Year Ended December 31, 2011  
             
    Before     Assuming  
    Consummation     Redemption of  
    of     9,994,625  
    Transaction     Shares  
             
UBPS pro forma weighted average shares     14,319,693       4,325,068  
Weighted average of shares issued in transactions             4,666,667  
Weighted average of shares from warrant conversion             2,527,359  
Weighted average of shares redeemed                
                 
UBPS pro forma weighted average shares - basic and diluted                
      14,319,693       11,519,094  

 

    Six Months Ended June 30, 2012  
             
    Before     Assuming  
    Consummation     Redemption of  
    of     9,994,625  
    Transaction     Shares  
             
UBPS pro forma weighted average shares   14,319,693     4,325,068  
Weighted average of shares issued in transactions             4,666,667  
Weighted average of shares from warrant conversion             2,527,359  
Weighted average of shares redeemed                
                 
UBPS pro forma weighted average shares - basic and diluted                
      14,319,693       11,519,094  

 

  In connection with the consummation of the transaction, holders of 18,960,000 warrants elected to exchange those warrants for .1333 shares of Common Stock for each warrant for a total of 2,527,359 shares.
   
  The fully diluted per share data is not shown because the underwriters purchase option to purchase 600,000 units at a price of $6.60 per unit is more than the fair market value of the Common Stock of $5.47. 
   
Note 5 The estimated life and the annual amortization of the intangibles in Note F are shown below:

 

          Amortization  
          for the  
          Year ended  
    Estimated     December 31,  
    Life (Years)     2011  
             
Software and technology     4     $ 1,500,000  
                 
Customer and supplier relationships     10       3,094,500  
                 
            $ 4,594,500  

 

 
 

 

Note 6 At the inception of UBPS, UBPS elected to have a fiscal year ending on September 30. As of the closing of the contemplated transactions, UBPS will adopt a fiscal year ending on December 31. The statements of operations of UBPS included herein have been adjusted to reflect a fiscal year ending on December 31.
   
Note 7 Reflects the elimination of expenses related to the transaction that were previously recorded as general and administrative expenses in the accounts of UBPS as shown below:

 

Accrued accounting and auditing fees   $ 125,000  
Expense deposit to banker     50,030  
Consulting expenses     16,463  
Travel expenses     10,812  
       
 Transaction expenses in general and administrative expenses eliminated   $ 202,305  

 

Note 8 Adjusts Federal tax expense (benefit) for consolidated tax purposes to an estimated tax rate of 40%.
   
Note 9 Prior to the transactions, the non controlling interests will be acquired by the controlling stockholders.

UNIVERSAL BUSINESS PAYMENT SOLUTIONS ACQUISITION CORPORATION

(A Company in the Development Stage)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2012

 

Note 1—Organization, Business Operations and Liquidity

 

Universal Business Payment Solutions Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 12, 2010 as a blank check company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, plan of arrangement, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more operating businesses (a “Business Combination”).

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

On May 13, 2011 the Company completed its initial public offering of shares of its common stock (the “Offering”). All activity prior to May 13, 2011 relates to the Company’s formation and Public Offering described below. All activity from May 13, 2011 through September 30, 2012 relates to the Company’s activities in seeking a Business Combination.

 

The Company is considered to be a development stage company and as such, its financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (‘‘ASC’’) topic 915 ‘‘Development Stage Entities.’’ The Company is subject to all of the risks associated with development stage companies.

 

The registration statement relating to the Offering was declared effective on May 9, 2011. The Company consummated the Offering on May 13, 2011 and received proceeds net of transaction costs of $69,366,994 which is discussed in Note 3 (“Public Offering”) and $3,480,000 from the private placement of warrants to the initial stockholders of the Company and the underwriters of the Offering (“Insider Warrants”) which is described in Note 4 (“Insider Warrants”). The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Offering and Insider Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company’s initial Business Combination must be with a target business whose collective fair value is at least equal to 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined herein) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for such Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to effect a Business Combination successfully. An amount of $72,720,000 (including the $3,480,000 of proceeds from the sale of Insider Warrants) was placed in a trust account (‘‘Trust Account’’) for the benefit of the Company and invested in United States treasuries having a maturity of 180 days or less until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Company’s first Business Combination, (ii) the Company’s failure to consummate a Business Combination within the prescribed time and (iii) such time as the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) trades at or below $5.75 per share, subject to certain criteria discussed below. In the event that the Common Stock trades at or below $5.75 per share, there will be released to the Company from the Trust Account amounts necessary for the Company to purchase up to an average of $1,900,000 worth of shares each month up to an aggregate amount of 50% of the shares sold in the Offering (or 6,000,000 shares). Such purchases were eligible to commence on July 10, 2011 pursuant to a share repurchase plan entered into between the Company and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated. The share repurchase plan between the Company and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated was terminated by mutual agreement of the parties on August 8, 2011 and a new share repurchase plan was simultaneously entered into between the Company and Ladenberg Thalmann (the “Share Repurchase Plan”). The Share Repurchase Plan was terminated on May 18, 2012. Purchases under the Share Repurchase Plan were made only in open market transactions pursuant to the Share Repurchase Plan which required the Company to maintain a limit order for the shares at $5.75 per share during the purchase period. All shares purchased by the Company were cancelled and resumed the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company. As of September 30, 2012, a total of 680,307 shares had been repurchased at a cost of $3,925,393 under the Share Repurchase Plan. The placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements.

 

F- 5
 

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer has agreed that he will be liable under certain circumstances to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by the Company for services rendered, contracted for or products sold to the Company. However, there can be no assurance that he will be able to satisfy those obligations should they arise. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Additionally, the interest earned on the Trust Account balance may be released to the Company to fund working capital requirements as well as for any amounts that are necessary to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

 

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, is required to provide stockholders who acquired shares in the Offering (“Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem their shares of common stock for a pro rata interest in the Trust Account. In the event that stockholders owning 93.1% (87.5% as adjusted for repurchases through September 30, 2012) or more of the shares sold in the Offering exercise their redemption rights (the “Redemption Threshold”) described below or are sold to the Company for cancellation, the Business Combination will not be consummated. All of the Company’s stockholders prior to the Offering, including all of the officers and directors of the Company (“Initial Stockholders”), have waived any redemption rights they may have in connection with a Business Combination.

 

With respect to a Business Combination which is consummated, Public Stockholders can demand that the Company redeem their shares of common stock for a full pro rata interest in the Trust Account (initially $6.06 per share and approximately $6.08 per share at September 30, 2012). Accordingly, Public Stockholders holding up to one share less than 93.1% (87.5% as adjusted for repurchases through September 30, 2012) of the aggregate number of shares owned by all Public Stockholders or 10,513,973 shares may seek redemption of their shares in the event of a Business Combination. The Redemption Threshold may be further limited by the terms and conditions of a proposed initial Business Combination. In this event, the Company would disclose the number of shares it purchased and the revised Redemption Threshold in the materials distributed to its stockholders in connection with the vote to approve a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate or other person with whom such Public Stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), will be restricted from seeking redemption with respect to an aggregate of more than 10% of the shares sold in the Offering (but only with respect to the amount over 10% of the shares sold in the Offering). A “group” will be deemed to exist if Public Stockholders (i) file a Schedule 13D or 13G indicating the presence of a group or (ii) acknowledge to the Company that they are acting, or intend to act, as a group.

 

If the Company has not completed a Business Combination by November 9, 2012 or February 9, 2013 if a definitive agreement has been executed by November 9, 2012 but a Business Combination has not been consummated by February 9, 2013, the Company will liquidate and distribute its remaining assets, including the Trust Account, to the Public Stockholders and its corporate existence will cease except for the purpose of winding up its affairs. In the event of a liquidation, the Public Stockholders will be entitled to receive a full pro rata interest in the Trust Account (initially $6.06 per share and approximately $6.08 per share at September 30, 2012), plus any pro rata interest earned on the Trust Account not previously released to the Company. The Company will pay the costs of liquidation from remaining assets outside of the Trust Account. If such funds are insufficient, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer has agreed to advance the funds necessary to complete the liquidation.

 

F- 6
 

 

The Company anticipates that in order to fund its working capital requirements, the Company will need to use all of the remaining funds not held in trust, the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account, as well as entering into contingent fee arrangements with its vendors. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Initial Stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Initial Stockholders, officers or directors is under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and controlling overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances that at times may be uninsured or in deposit accounts that exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. The Company maintains its cash deposits with major financial institutions.

 

Restricted cash and cash equivalents held in trust account

 

The amounts held in the Trust Account represent substantially all of the proceeds of the Offering and are classified as restricted assets since such amounts can only be used by the Company in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination or to repurchase shares.

 

Loss per share

 

Loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. 10,513,974 shares of common stock, subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2012, have been excluded from the calculation of basic loss per share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the earnings on the Trust Account. Loss per share assuming dilution would give effective to dilutive options, warrants and other potential common shares outstanding during the period. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants to purchase 18,960,000 shares of common stock or the effect of the unit purchase option in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants and the unit purchase are contingent upon the occurrence of future events.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets or liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Securities held in Trust Account

 

At September 30, 2012, investment securities consisted of United States Treasury securities. The Company classified its securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

 

F- 7
 

 

A decline in the market value of held-to-maturity securities below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary, results in an impairment that reduces the carrying costs to such securities’ fair value. The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is established. To determine whether an impairment is other than temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and considers whether evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary.

 

Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Such amortization and accretion is included in the “interest income” line item in the statements of operations. Interest income is recognized when earned.

 

Fair value measurements

 

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

 

  Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
     
  Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

  Level 3. Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of three valuation techniques identified in the tables below. The valuation techniques are as follows:

 

  (a). Market approach. Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities;
     
  (b). Cost approach. Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost); and

 

  (c). Income approach. Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models).

Common stock subject to possible redemption

 

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance enumerated in ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as liability instruments and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered by the Company to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly at September 30, 2012, the common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (‘‘ASC 740’’). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. The Company is required to file income tax returns in the United States (federal) and in various state and local jurisdictions. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The evaluation was performed for the 2010 and 2011 tax years, which will be the only periods subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its financial position.

 

The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the period from November 12, 2010 (inception) through September 30, 2012. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the review, Management did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events, other than those discussed in Note 10–Subsequent Events, that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements (See Note 10–Subsequent Events).

Note 3—Public Offering

 

On May 13, 2011 the Company sold 12,000,000 units (“Units”) at a price of $6.00 per unit in the Offering. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001, and one warrant (“Warrants”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $6.90 commencing on the later of the Company’s completion of a Business Combination and May 9, 2012 and expires on the earlier of (i) five years from the completion of a Business Combination, (ii) the liquidation of the Trust Account if the Company has not completed a business combination within the required time period or (iii) earlier redemption of the Warrant. The Company may redeem the Warrants at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon 30 days notice while the Warrants are exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the shares of common stock is at least $9.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given and there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such Warrants commencing five business days prior to the 30-day trading period and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. If the Company redeems the Warrants as described above, management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise his Warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, the holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering his Warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of (i) the number of shares of common stock underlying the Warrants, and (ii) the difference between the exercise price of the Warrants and the ‘‘fair market value’’ (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The ‘‘fair market value’’ shall mean the average reported last sale price of the shares of common stock for the five trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to holders of Warrants. In accordance with the warrant agreement relating to the Warrants sold and issued in the Offering, the Company is only required to use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the Warrants. The Company will not be obligated to deliver securities, and there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities, if a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise. Additionally, in the event that a registration statement is not effective at the time of exercise, the holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrant and in no event (whether in the case of a registration statement not being effective or otherwise) will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrant exercise. Consequently, the Warrants may expire unexercised and unredeemed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company has not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants by the 6-month anniversary of the consummation of its initial Business Combination, commencing on that day, Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement, exercise Warrants on a cashless basis, provided that such cashless exercise is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company does not believe that such an exemption is currently available.

 

The Company paid the underwriters of the Offering an underwriting discount of 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering ($2,160,000). The Company also issued a unit purchase option, for $100, to EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (“EBC”) or its designees to purchase 600,000 units at an exercise price of $6.60 per unit. The units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to the units sold in the Offering, with the exception of containing a provision for cashless exercise by EBC. The Company has accounted for the fair value of the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of the $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Offering resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity. The Company estimates that the fair value of this unit purchase option is approximately $1,053,551 (or $1.76 per unit) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the unit purchase option granted to EBC is estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 35.0%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 2.07% and (3) expected life of five years. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a “cashless” basis, at the holder’s option (except in the case of a forced cashless exercise upon the Company’s redemption of the Warrants, as described above), such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the unit purchase option (the difference between the exercise prices of the unit purchase option and the underlying Warrants and the market price of the Units and underlying shares of common stock) to exercise the unit purchase option without the payment of any cash. The Company will have no obligation to net cash settle the exercise of the unit purchase option or the Warrants underlying the unit purchase option. The holder of the unit purchase option will not be entitled to exercise the unit purchase option or the Warrants underlying the unit purchase option unless a registration statement covering the securities underlying the unit purchase option is effective or an exemption from registration is available. If the holder is unable to exercise the unit purchase option or underlying Warrants, the unit purchase option or Warrants, as applicable, will expire worthless.

Note 4—Insider Warrants

 

Simultaneously with the Offering, certain of the Initial Stockholders and the underwriters of the Offering purchased 6,960,000 Insider Warrants at $0.50 per warrant (for an aggregate purchase price of $3,480,000) from the Company. All of the proceeds received from these purchases were placed in the Trust Account. The Insider Warrants are identical to the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Offering except that: (i) the Insider Warrants were purchased pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, (ii) the Insider Warrants are non-redeemable and (iii) the Insider Warrants are exercisable on a ‘‘cashless’’ basis, in each case, if held by the initial holders or permitted assigns. The transfer restriction does not apply to transfers made pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that is occasioned by operation of law or for estate planning purposes, while remaining in escrow.

 

The Initial Stockholders and the holders of the Insider Warrants (or underlying shares of common stock) are entitled to registration rights with respect to their founding shares and the Insider Warrants (or underlying shares of common stock) pursuant to agreements signed May 13, 2011. The holders of the majority of the founding shares are entitled to demand that the Company register these shares at any time commencing three months prior to the first anniversary of the consummation of a Business Combination. The holders of the Insider Warrants (or underlying shares of common stock) are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination. Pursuant to the terms of the unit purchase option, the holders of the unit purchase option will be entitled to registration rights with respect to the securities. In addition, the Initial Stockholders and holders of the Insider Warrants (or underlying shares of common stock) have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination.

 

Note 5—Investment in Trust Account

 

Subsequent to the Offering, the net proceeds of the Offering totaling $72,720,000 were deposited into an interest-bearing trust account and invested only in United States “government securities” (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) having a maturity of 180 days or less until the earlier of either (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) liquidation of the Company.

 

As of September 30, 2011, investment securities in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $10,000,000 in United States Treasury Bills and $58,811,113 in a “held as cash” account. The Company classifies its United States Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with FASB ASC 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheets and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. The carrying amount, excluding accrued interest income, gross unrealized holding gains and fair value of held-to-maturity securities at September 30, 2012 are as follows:

 

    Carrying
Amount
    Unrealized
Holding
Gains
    Fair

Held-to-Maturity U.S. Treasury Securities   $ 10,000,000     $ -     $ 10,000,000  

 

Note 6—Notes Payable to Stockholders

 

From December 6, 2010 through August 20, 2012, the Company issued a series of principal amount unsecured promissory notes to UBPS Services, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Shah totaling $372,500. These notes are non-interest bearing and are payable on the earlier of their anniversary or the consummation of an initial business combination.

Note 7—Commitments

 

The Company granted the underwriters of the Offering a 45 day option to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. The underwriters elected not to exercise the over-allotment option and the over-allotment option expired on June 27, 2011.

 

The Company presently occupies office space provided by an affiliate of the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Such affiliate has agreed that, until the Company consummates a Business Combination, it will make such office space as well as certain office and secretarial services available to the Company, as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay such affiliate an aggregate of $7,500 per month for such services commencing on May 9, 2011. Aggregate payments made under this agreement amounted to $127,599 as of September 30, 2012.

 

Pursuant to letter agreements executed May 13, 2011 among the Company and the underwriters of the Offering, the Initial Stockholders have waived their right to receive distributions with respect to their founding shares upon the Company’s liquidation.

 

The Company has engaged EBC on a non-exclusive basis to act as its advisor and investment banker in connection with its initial Business Combination. EBC will provide the Company with assistance in negotiating and structuring the terms of its initial Business Combination. The Company will pay EBC a cash fee of $2,070,000 for such services upon the consummation of its initial Business Combination.

 

Note 8 Income Taxes

 

The Company’s deferred tax assets are as follows at September 30, 2012:

Net operating loss carryforwards   $ 281,908  
Total deferred tax assets   $ 281,908  
Less: valuation allowance     (281,908 )
Net deferred tax assets     -  

 

The Company has a net operating loss of approximately $704,769 that expires in 2032. The ultimate realization of the net operating loss is dependent upon future taxable income, if any, of the Company and may be limited in any one period by alternative minimum tax rules. Although management believes that the Company will have sufficient future taxable income to absorb the net loss carryovers before the expiration of the carryover period, there may be circumstances beyond the Company’s control that limit such utilization. Accordingly, management has determined that a full valuation allowance of the deferred tax asset is appropriate as of September 30, 2012.

 

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 imposes limitations on the use of net operating loss carryovers when the stock ownership of one or more 5% shareholders (shareholders owning more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock) has increased on a cumulative basis more than 50 percentage points within a period of two years. Management cannot control the ownership changes occurring as a result of public trading of the Company’s Common Stock. Accordingly, there is a risk of an ownership change beyond the control of the Company that could trigger a limitation of the use of the loss carryover.

 

The Company established a valuation allowance of $281,908 as of September 30, 2012, which fully offset the deferred tax asset of $281,908. The deferred tax asset results from applying an effective combined federal and state tax rate of 40% to the net operating losses of approximately $704,769. Effective tax rates differ from statutory rates.

 

F- 12
 

 

A reconciliation of the statutory tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate as of September 30, 2012 is as follows:

 

Tax benefit at federal statutory rate     (34.0 )%
State income tax     (6.0 )%
Increase in valuation allowance     40.0 %
Effective income tax rate     - %

 

Note 9—Shareholders’ Equity

On October 27 the Company repurchased an additional 2,328 shares, and the Company repurchased an additional 19,979 shares on March 14, 2012. All such sh ares were purchased at the price of $5.75 per share in accordance with the Share Repurchase Plan. A total of $3,925,393 was withdrawn from the Company’s trust account to complete such repurchases. The repurchased shares were subsequently cancelled.

 

As of September 30, 2012, 14,319,693 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding, following the cancellation of 450,000 shares which were forfeited by the Initial Shareholders upon the underwriters’ election not to exercise their over-allotment option; and the repurchase and subsequent cancellation of 658,000 shares under the Company’s Share Repurchase Plan. In addition, 750,000 of such shares are subject to forfeiture in the event that the Company does not satisfy the conditions required to redeem any outstanding Warrants as described in Note 3.

 

Note 10—Subsequent Events

 

The Company issued a series of unsecured promissory notes to UBPS Services, LLC, an entity controlled by one of the Initial Stockholders, Bipin Shah on October 9, November 13, November 28 and December 6, 2012 in the amounts of $7,000, $15,000, $29,379.81, and 44,500 respectively. .

(iv) approve, if necessary or appropriate, the adjournment of the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the meeting to approve the Acquisition Proposals and the Charter Proposals (the “Stockholder Adjournment Proposal”).

 

If some but not all of the Acquisition Proposals are approved, UBPS may consummate any combination of the transactions contemplated by the approved Acquisition Proposals that would result in the acquisition of businesses whose fair value, as measured by the market value of the consideration paid under such proposals on July 6, 2012, is at least equal to $55,042,046, or 80% of the value of the funds being held in trust by the Company as of July 6, 2012 (the “Minimum Acquisition”). The Company intends to consummate each of the Acquisition Proposals that are approved by the Company’s stockholders and for which the conditions to consummation have been satisfied and its board of directors has not ascribed any particular preference to one of the proposed deals over any of the others. If all of the Company’s conditions to closing each of the Acquisitions Agreements have been satisfied, the Company could be subject to damages if it chose not to close such transaction for whatever reason. Consummation of the Charter Proposals and the Warrant Proposal are contingent upon the approval and consummation of the Acquisition Proposals constituting the Minimum Acquisition.

 

The Company’s Initial Stockholders have agreed, with respect to each of the Acquisition Proposals, to vote their 3,000,000 shares of Company common stock acquired prior to the Offering, representing an aggregate of approximately 21.0% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, in accordance with the vote of the majority of the common stock sold in the Offering. The Initial Stockholders also intend to vote all of their shares of the Company’s common stock “FOR” each of the Charter Proposals, the Warrant Proposal and Stockholder Adjournment Proposal.

 

Pursuant to the Charter, in connection with the Acquisition Proposals, the Company is providing all holders of shares of its common stock issued as part of the units in the Offering (the “Public Shares”) with the opportunity to have their Public Shares redeemed in connection with the Acquisition Proposals pursuant to, and subject to the limitations set forth in the Charter, for cash equal to the applicable redemption price per share determined in accordance with the Charter (a “Redemption”). If the holders of 93.1% (87.5% as adjusted for repurchases) or more of the Company’s Common Stock issued in the Offering demand a Redemption, then, in accordance with the terms of the Charter, the Company will not consummate the proposed transactions. The Company’s common stock, units and public warrants are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “UBPS,” “UBPSU” and “UBPSW,” respectively.

 

On November 19, 2012, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the JetPay Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), pursuant to which the relevant parties amended two provisions of the JetPay Agreement. First, the provision obligating the Company to pay $5,000,000 in cash upon a consummation of a redemption of the Company’s public warrants was amended so that such consideration is now payable if and when the trading price of the Company’s common stock is at least $9.50 per share for any 20 trading days out of a 30 trading day period. Second, the Second Amendment changed the date on which both parties could terminate the agreement if the closing of the transaction had not occurred, from November 15, 2012 to December 31, 2012.

 

On December 4, 2012, the Company and JetPay entered into the Third Amendment to the JetPay Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), pursuant to which the relevant parties amended the consideration due and payable at closing. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, for every share in excess of 4,740,746 shares of Company common stock that is to be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds held in trust, the cash consideration to be paid into the escrow account established at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. at closing will be reduced by the product of such excess redemptions and $6.08, up to a maximum of $10,000,000 and the merger consideration to be paid into such escrow account will be increased by the lesser of (i) the product of such excess redemptions and $6.08, divided by $6.00 and (ii) 1,666,667 shares.

 

On December 11, 2012, the Company, Enzo Merger Sub, Inc. and the Francis David Corporation d/b/a Electronic Merchant Systems mutually agreed to terminate that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 6, 2012, among the Company, Enzo Merger Sub, Inc., EMS, the stockholders of EMS and James Weiland, as Representative.

On December 11, 2012, the Company held a special meeting of its warrant holders at which such warrant holders voted to adopt the proposal to approve the termination of the warrant agreement that governs all of the Company’s issued and outstanding warrants and the conversion of each issued and outstanding warrant of the Company into .1333 shares of the Company’s common stock. The consummation of this proposal is contingent upon consummation of certain of the acquisition proposals described in the Definitive Proxy Statement the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2012 on Schedule 14A. The final voting results were as follows:

 

    For     Against     Abstain/Withhold  
Number of votes     13,159,682       232,500       1,500  
Percentage of shares outstanding and entitled to vote     98.25 %     1.74 %     0.01 %

(“Bermuda”) and each of Bipin C. Shah, Peter Davidson, Frederick S. Hammer, Arthur F. Ryan, Robert Palmer, Richard S. Braddock, Jonathan M. Lubert and Ira Lubert (collectively, the “Grantors”) and (ii) an Option Issuance Agreement (the “Partners Issuance Agreement” and together with the Bermuda Issuance Agreement, the “Issuance Agreements”) by and among the Company, Wolf Creek Partners, L.P. (“Partners”) and each of the Grantors.

 

Pursuant to the Bermuda Issuance Agreement, the Grantors agreed that if (i) the transactions contemplated by (A) the JetPay Agreement and (B) the ADC Agreement are consummated and (ii) in connection with the proposed transactions, Bermuda does not exercise its rights to redeem its shares of Company common stock for its pro rata share of the funds being held in the trust account established in connection with the Company’s Offering (“Redemption Rights”), the Grantors will, at the closing of the proposed transactions, issue to Bermuda an immediately exercisable option to purchase an aggregate of 188,384 shares of Company common stock owned by the Grantors at an exercise price of $0.005 per share.

 

Pursuant to the Partners Issuance Agreement, the Grantors agreed that if (i) the proposed transactions are consummated and (ii) in connection with the proposed transactions, Partners does not exercise its Redemption Rights, the Grantors will, at the closing of the proposed transactions, issue to Partners an immediately exercisable option to purchase an aggregate of 198,427 shares of Company common stock owned by the Grantors at an exercise price of $0.005 per share.

 

Each of the options will have an exercise period of five years. Both options prevent the holder from exercising the option to the extent (and only to the extent) that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by such holder or any of its affiliates of more than 9.9% of the outstanding Company common stock. The Issuance Agreements contain the form of option to be granted to each of Bermuda and Partners by the Grantors as an exhibit.

 

The Grantors are obligated to deposit the aggregate number of shares that may be issued under each of the options that may be issued under the Issuance Agreements in an escrow account to be maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company no later than December 20, 2012. The form of Escrow Agreement to be entered into among the Grantors, Bermuda, Partners and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is an exhibit to each of the Issuance Agreements.

 

Pursuant to the Issuance Agreements, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering resale of the shares that may be issued upon exercise of options no later than 30 days after consummation of the proposed transactions. The Company must use its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as possible and within certain time frames specified in the Issuance Agreements.

 

F- 16
 

 

Pursuant to the Issuance Agreements, the Company also represented that until the proposed transactions are consummated there are material conditions to the consummation of the Transaction and agreed that the consummation of the proposed transactions will in no event occur prior to December 28, 2012.

 

On December 24, 2012, the Company, ADC and PTFS entered into the Second Amendment to the ADC Agreement (the “ADC Amendment”), pursuant to which the parties amended one of the representations being made by the Company with respect to its capitalization after the consummation of a business combination. In connection with amending such representation, a closing condition was added giving ADC the right to terminate the ADC Agreement if any material changes to the pro forma capitalization were made that were materially adverse to selling stockholders of ADC in the aggregate. The parties also agreed to specify the treatment of certain indebtedness and to extend the date on which the parties could terminate the ADC Agreement until December 31, 2012.

 

On December 27, 2012, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders at which such stockholders voted to adjourn the special meeting until December 28, 2012 at 11:00 A.M., local time, at its original location. The final voting results were as follows:

The Notes mature on the earlier of December 31, 2014 and consummation of $10 million in debt or equity financing by the Company. The Notes are not prepayable.

 

Pursuant to the Notes, the Note Investors will be entitled to convert all or any amounts outstanding under the Notes into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $5.15 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

In connection with the Note Agreement, the Company entered into Registration Rights Agreements on December 28, 2012 with each of the Note Investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide registration rights with respect to the common shares issuable upon conversion whereby the Note Investors would be entitled up to three “demand” registration requests and unlimited “piggyback” registration requests. To the extent a registration for the shares has not been declared effective by June 30, 2013, the conversion price will be reduced by $0.15 per share with additional reductions of $0.05 per share for every 30 day delay thereafter until a registration has been declared effective.

 

In connection with the Notes, certain stockholders of the Company agreed to transfer up to approximately 840,000 shares of Common Stock that they acquired prior to Public Offering to certain of the Note Investors. Such shares were previously held in an escrow account established at the time of the Public Offering pursuant to Stock Escrow Agreements, each dated as of May 13, 2011, among each such stockholder, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Following the proposed transfers, such shares will no longer be held in escrow. As part of such share issuance, the Company entered into Registration Rights Agreements, dated as of December 28, 2012, with such investors which entitle such investors to up to three “demand” registration requests and unlimited “piggyback” registration requests.

 

As partial consideration for Mr. Lubert to enter into the Note Agreement, the Company agreed, pursuant to the Stock Escrow Termination Agreement, dated as of December 28, 2012, to terminate the Stock Escrow Agreement, dated as of May 13, 2011, among Mr. Lubert, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, with respect to 826,000 common shares.

 

In order to finance the proposed transactions, on December 28, 2012, the Company also entered into an Amendment, Guarantee and Waiver Agreement (the “Assumption Agreement”) with JetPay and Ten Lords Ltd. Pursuant to the Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to guarantee JetPay’s obligations with respect to an existing loan agreement between JetPay, Ten Lords, Ltd. and Providence Interactive Capital, LLC (collectively, the “Payees”). JetPay also agreed to compensate the Payees for any negative tax consequences as a result of the existing note remaining outstanding after December 31, 2012. Amounts outstanding under the loan will be convertible at the holders’ option into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $6.00 per share, unless JetPay is in default under the loan agreement, in which case, amounts outstanding under the loan agreement can be converted at the lower of (i) $6.00 per share and (ii) the average trading price of shares of Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the delivery of notice requesting such conversion. JetPay also agreed to increase the interest rate on amounts outstanding under the loan to 9.5% for the first 180 days after the execution of the Assumption Agreement and 13.5% thereafter.

 

In exchange, Ten Lords Ltd agreed to consent to the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement. JetPay was obligated to pay any amounts still outstanding on the existing loan in excess of $6 million upon closing of the transactions contemplated by the JetPay Agreement. All amounts outstanding under the loan agreement must be repaid within one year.

 

On December 28, 2012, ADC and Payroll Tax Filing Services, Inc. (“PTFS”, together with ADC, the “Borrowers”), as borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Metro Bank as the lender for a term loan with a principal amount of $9,000,000. Amounts outstanding under the notes will accrue interest at a rate of 4% per annum. The loan matures on December 28, 2019 and amortizes over the course of the loan in equal monthly installments.

 

The loans are guaranteed by the Company and are secured by all assets of ADC and PTFS, as well as a pledge by the Company of its ownership of ADC. The Loan and Security Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, liens, transactions with affiliates and other customary restrictions for loans of this type and size. The Borrowers are also subject to financial covenants related to their debt coverage ratio and total leverage ratio during the term of the loan. The loans may be prepaid at the option of the Borrowers without any premium or penalty and are subject to mandatory prepayments upon certain asset sales, casualty events, the incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of capital stock.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Operations

 

A D Computer Corporation (the Company) provides comprehensive payroll services to businesses of all types and sizes located throughout the United States. The services range from standard payroll processing to payroll tax filing, human resources and benefits software.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In some instances below, the Company references June 30 instead of September numbers. The June period was used as it was the last period reviewed. If there was a significant change in the quarter from June 30 to September 30, it is so noted.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of supplies used in payroll processing and shipping materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market value.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

 

ASSET TYPE   Years
     
Furniture and fixtures    5-7
Transportation equipment   3-5
Machinery and equipment   5-7
Leasehold improvements   5-39

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is measured for impairment on an annual basis or when a triggering event occurs. No indicators of impairment were identified during 2012 and 2011. Intangible assets consist of customer lists and purchased technology and are carried at cost. Amortization expense is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

 

F- 24
 

 

ASSET TYPE   Years
     
Computer software    5
Other intangible assets   5-15

 

Bad Debt Expense

 

The Company uses the direct write-off method as losses have historically been insignificant to the financial statements. The Company recorded no bad debts during the six-months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be taxed as an “S” corporation for both Federal and Pennsylvania income tax purposes. The Company has not elected to be treated as an “S” corporation in the state of New Jersey. Generally under the “S” election, any Federal or state taxable income of the Company is included in the personal income tax returns of the stockholders of the Company. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities for years before 2009.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of the assets might not be recoverable.

 

Cash Flows

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash on hand and demand deposits with financial institutions to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company paid no income taxes and no interest during each of the nine-months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains deposits in excess of Federally insured limits, which is identified as a concentration of credit risk.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through September 30, 2012, the date that these financial statements were available to be issued, and concluded no events or transactions occurred during that period requiring recognition or disclosure.

Payroll Tax Filing

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Operations

 

Payroll Tax Filing Services, Inc. (the Company) prepares, processes and files payroll tax deposits and required payroll tax returns for clients of a related payroll processing company from its office in Center Valley, Pennsylvania. The Company provides its services to businesses of all types and sizes located throughout the United States.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company has entered into a cash management agreement with a financial institution. The agreement provides for the daily collected balance within the restricted trust account to be invested in a repurchase agreement at a variable rate (the Federal Funds Rate less .035%). The repurchase agreement matures daily.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of organizational costs and are carried at cost. Amortization expense is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Bad Debt Expense

 

The Company uses the direct write-off method as losses have historically been insignificant to the financial statements. There were no bad debts recorded during the six-months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be taxed as an “S” corporation for both Federal and state income tax purposes. Generally under this election, any Federal or state taxable income of the Company is included in the personal income tax returns of the stockholders of the Company. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

 

F- 32
 

 

Income Taxes – (Continued)

 

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities for years before 2009.

 

Cash Flows

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash on hand and unrestricted demand deposits with financial institutions to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company paid $1,500 of interest during the six-months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains deposits in excess of Federally insured limits, which is identified as a concentration of credit risk.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through September 30, 2012, the date that these financial statements were available to be issued, and concluded no events or transactions occurred during that period requiring recognition or disclosure.

 

Note 2 - Deferred Revenue/Charges

 

Deferred revenue represents amounts billed to customers in advance for services to be provided by the Company for the year-end tax filings. Deferred charges represent the corresponding expenses related to those services.

 

Note 3 - Related Party Transactions

 

The Company is provided all of its clientele from a payroll processing company owned by shareholders who own 50% of the Company. All information necessary to prepare and file the payroll tax deposits and filings are provided by the payroll processing company for which they are paid a fee equal to 45% of all fees collected by the Company for the nine-months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. The Company recorded $912,251 and $911,509 of expense related to these fees for the nine-months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Notes to the Combined Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation, General and Business

 

Organization and Principles of Combination

 

The JetPay Companies (the Combined Companies or the Companies) are a group of related companies with similar ownership and in a similar line of business. The companies included in these combined statements are JetPay, LLC (a Texas LLC), JetPay Merchant Services LLC (a Texas LLC), and JetPay ISO Services, LLC (a Texas LLC). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the combined financial statements.

 

JetPay, LLC (JP) is a closely-held Texas limited liability company that was organized in 2001. JP is a professional services firm specializing in the processing and forwarding of credit card information from individual user organizations to member banks and processing houses. JP’s operations are conducted primarily from one location in Carrollton, Texas, with a backup data center maintained in Sunnyvale, Texas. JetPay Merchant Services, LLC (JPMS) was organized in 2003 and markets credit and debit card services to merchants. JetPay ISO Services, LLC (JPISO) was organized in 2005 and markets credit and debit card services to Independent Sales Organizations.

 

JT Holdings is considered a related party to the Combined Companies due to similar ownership. JT Holdings owns the building in Sunnyvale, Texas where the Companies’ backup facility is maintained.

 

The information in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements has not been audited or reviewed by independent accountants. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could different from those estimates.

 

Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2011 contains a description of the Company’s significant accounting policies.

 

Subsequent Events

 

On July 9, 2012, the sole member of the combined companies entered into an agreement to sell the company to Universal Business Payment Solutions (UBPS). The agreement requires approval by the stockholders of UBPS and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

 

On March 14, 2012, a charter airline merchant of JetPay Merchant Services, LLC suddenly stopped flying and declared bankruptcy. While JetPay and its sponsor Bank have catastrophic insurance on this merchant, the resulting chargebacks from consumers are being funded until such time as the insurance claim can be validated. The insurance has a $250,000 deductible and a $25 million limit. Additional detail regarding this matter can be found in the Summary Financial Statements in this filing.

 

The Companies have evaluated subsequent events through September 30, 2012, the date which the financial statements were available to be issued.

The Corporation shall promptly indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of an amendment of the DGCL, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), any person (an “ Indemnitee ”) who was or is made, or is threatened to be made, a party or witness or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed investigation, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether external or internal to the Corporation (a “ Proceeding ”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or, while a director or an officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or the like, officer or the like, employee, member, trustee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other enterprise or association (including, but not limited to, service with respect to employee benefit plans) (any such entity, an “ Other Entity ”), against all liability and loss (including, but not limited to, expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnitee (i) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (ii) relates to counterclaims or affirmative defenses asserted by a person seeking indemnification in an action brought against such person, (iii) relates to any proceeding brought by a person seeking indemnification or payment under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering such person or (iv) the Proceeding (or part thereof) relates to the enforcement of the Corporation’s obligations under this Article X .

 

(b)                Advancement of Expenses . The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law (but, in the case of an amendment to the applicable law, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide additional or broader advancement of expenses than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment) pay, on an as-incurred basis, all expenses (including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending or appearing in or preparing to defend or appear in any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition. Such advancement shall be unconditional, unsecured and interest free and shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay any expenses advanced; provided , however , that, to the extent required by law (but, in the case of an amendment to the applicable law, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide additional or broader advancement of expenses than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an unsecured undertaking by the Indemnitee to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article X or otherwise.

(c)                 Service for Subsidiaries . Any person serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other enterprise, at least fifty percent of whose equity interests are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation.

 

(d)                Claims . If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Article X is not paid in full within thirty days after a written claim therefor by the Indemnitee has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the fullest extent permitted by law. In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

 

(e)                 Consistent with Fiduciary Duty . The right of indemnification pursuant to this Article X is conferred in order to attract and retain services of highly qualified directors and officers and to encourage them to make corporate decisions without fear of suits and legal harassment. Indemnification pursuant to this Article X is therefore declared to be consistent with the fiduciary duty of the Corporation’s Board of Directors. Except as specifically provided in this Article X , such indemnification shall be made by the Corporation without any requirement that any determination be made or any action be taken by the Board of Directors, shareholders or legal counsel. A failure of the Board of Directors, shareholders or legal counsel to make a determination or take action favorable to the claim of an Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to this Article X , or the making of a determination or taking of action adverse to such a claim, shall not preclude indemnification under this Article X or create any presumption that the Indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification.

 

(f)                 Insurance . The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, trustee, employee, member, trustee or agent of the Corporation, or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of an Other Entity, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article X or the DGCL.

 

(g)                Non-Exclusivity of Rights . The rights conferred on any Indemnitee by this Article X are not exclusive of other rights arising under any bylaw, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such Indemnitee.

 

- 7 -
 

 

(h)                Amounts Received from an Other Entity . Subject to Section (i) of this Article X , the Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Indemnitee who was or is serving at the Corporation’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent of an Other Entity shall be reduced by any amount such Indemnitee may collect as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such Other Entity.

 

(i)                  Indemnification Priority . As between the Corporation and any other person (other than an entity directly or indirectly controlled by the Corporation) who provides indemnification to the Indemnitees for their service to, or on behalf of, the Corporation (collectively, the “ Secondary Indemnitors ”) (i) the Corporation shall be the full indemnitor of first resort in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as defined below), pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Article X , irrespective of any right of indemnification, advancement of expenses or other right of recovery any Indemnitee may have from any Secondary Indemnitor or any right to insurance coverage that Indemnitee may have under any insurance policy issued to any Secondary Indemnitor (i.e., the Corporation’s obligations to such Indemnitees are primary and any obligation of any Secondary Indemnitor, or any insurer of any Secondary Indemnitor, to advance expenses or to provide indemnification or insurance coverage for the same loss or liability incurred by such Indemnitees is secondary to the Corporation’s obligations), (ii) the Corporation shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by any such Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all liability and loss suffered by such Indemnitee (including, but not limited to, expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding), without regard to any rights any such Indemnitee may have against any Secondary Indemnitor or against any insurance carrier providing insurance coverage to Indemnitee under any insurance policy issued to a Secondary Indemnitor, and (iii) the Corporation irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases each Secondary Indemnitor from any and all claims against such Secondary Indemnitor for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation shall indemnify each Secondary Indemnitor directly for any amounts that such Secondary Indemnitor pays as indemnification or advancement on behalf of any such Indemnitee and for which such Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification from the Corporation in connection with Jointly Indemnifiable Claims. No right of indemnification, advancement of expenses or other right of recovery that an Indemnitee may have from any Secondary Indemnitor shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Corporation hereunder. No advancement or payment by any Secondary Indemnitor on behalf of any such Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the foregoing and the Secondary Indemnitors shall be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Indemnitee against the Corporation. Each Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure the rights of such Indemnitee’s Secondary Indemnitors under this Article X , including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Secondary Indemnitors effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights, including in the right of the Corporation. Each of the Secondary Indemnitors shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section (i), entitled to enforce this Section (i). As used in this Section (i), the term “ Jointly Indemnifiable Claims ” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any action, suit, proceeding or other matter for which an Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification, reimbursement, advancement of expenses or insurance coverage from both a Secondary Indemnitor (or an insurance carrier providing insurance coverage to any Secondary Indemnitor) and the Corporation, whether pursuant to Delaware law (or other applicable law in the case of any Secondary Indemnitor), any agreement or certificate of incorporation, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or other organizational or governing documents of the Corporation or the Secondary Indemnitors or any insurance policy providing insurance coverage to any Secondary Indemnitor, as applicable.

 

- 8 -
 

 

(j)                  Amendment or Repeal . Any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of any Indemnitee arising hereunder shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to or repeal of this Article X after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit, proceeding or other matter for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought.

 

(k)                Other Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses . This Article X shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Indemnitees when and as authorized by appropriate corporate action.

 

(l)                  Reliance . Indemnitees who after the date of the adoption of this Article X become or remain an Indemnitee described in Section (a) of this Article X will be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity, advancement of expenses and other rights contained in this Article X in entering into or continuing the service. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article X will apply to claims made against any Indemnitee described in Section (a) of this Article X arising out of acts or omissions that occurred or occur either before or after the adoption of this Article X in respect of service as a director or officer of the corporation or other service described in Section (a) of this Article X .

 

(m)              Contract Rights . The provisions of this Article X shall be deemed to be a contract right between the Corporation and each Indemnitee who serves in any such capacity at any time while this Article X and the relevant provisions of the DGCL or other applicable law are in effect, and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of such Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. Any repeal or modification of this Article X or any such law that adversely affects any right of any Indemnitee, shall be prospective only and shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or proceeding then existing.

 

(n)                Merger or Consolidation . For the purposes of this Article X , references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article X with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

 

- 9 -
 

 

(o)                Successful Defense . In the event that any proceeding to which an Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against the Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such proceeding for purposes of Section 145(c) of the DGCL. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

 

(p)                Funding to Meet Indemnification Obligations . The Board of Directors, without approval of the stockholders, shall have the power to borrow money on behalf of the Corporation, including the power to pledge the assets of the Corporation, from time to time to discharge the Corporation’s obligations with respect to indemnification, the advancement and reimbursement of expenses, and the purchase and maintenance of insurance referred to in this Article X . The Corporation may, in lieu of or in addition to the purchase and maintenance of insurance referred to in this Article X , establish and maintain a fund of any nature or otherwise secure or insure in any manner its indemnification obligations, whether arising under or pursuant to this Article X or otherwise.

 

ARTICLE XI - SEVERABILITY

 

If any provision or provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors, officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to or for the benefit of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

3.5   Offering. Based in part upon the Purchasers’ representations in Article 4 hereof, the offer, and the sale and issuance, of the Notes and the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Notes (the “ Conversion Stock ”) constitute a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.

 

3.6   Valid Issuance of Securities. The Company shall, prior to the conversion of the Notes, reserve from its authorized but unissued shares of its capital stock for issuance and delivery upon the conversion of the Notes, such number of shares of Conversion Stock, and, from time to time, will take all steps necessary to amend its Certificate of Incorporation to provide sufficient authorized numbers of shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes. All such shares shall be duly authorized, and when issued upon any such conversion, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws.

ARTICLE 4 

 

Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Purchasers

 

Each Purchaser hereby represents, warrants and covenants, severally and not jointly, to the Company as follows:

 

4.1   Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

4.2   Restricted Securities; Rule 144. The Purchaser understands that the Notes (and the Conversion Stock) are characterized as “ restricted securities ” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, the Notes (and the Conversion Stock) may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Notes (and all capital stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Notes) must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

 

3
 

 

4.3   No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for the Notes and that there can be no assurance that a public market will ever exist for the Notes (or the Conversion Stock).

 

4.4   Further Limitations on Disposition of Conversion Stock. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, except with respect to transfers to fund entities affiliated with Purchasers, or in the case of an individual Purchaser, to an entity wholly-owned by such individual Purchaser, the Purchaser agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, unless and until:

 

(a) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement;

 

(b) (i) the Purchaser shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) such Purchaser shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require, or is exempt from, registration under the Securities Act; or

 

(c) there is an applicable exemption under the Securities Act, including but not limited to an exemption under Rule 144 of the Securities Act

 

4.5   Registration Rights. At the Closing, the Company and Purchaser shall enter into a Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to file a registration statement with respect to all of the Conversion Stock as soon as practicable following the Closing and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement so long as the Conversion Stock is issuable or the Purchaser holds the Conversion Stock. Furthermore, in the event that a registration statement is not declared effective by June 30, 2013, the conversion price shall be reduced by $0.15 per share and then by an additional $0.05 per share for every 30 days after June 30, 2013 that the registration statement has not been declared effective.

 

4.6   Legends. It is understood that each certificate representing the Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and any securities issued in respect thereof or in exchange therefor shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

 

4
 

 

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THIS SECURITY UNDER SAID ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

 

The Company hereby agrees to instruct the transfer agent to remove such legend immediately upon the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement with respect to the Conversion Shares.

 

4.7   No Transfer of Notes . The Purchaser shall not sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Notes, or any economic interest therein, without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except to fund entities affiliated with Purchasers, or in the case of an individual Purchaser, to an entity wholly-owned by such individual Purchaser.

 

4.8   Listing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain a listing on a nationally recognized securities exchange market for its shares of common stock.

 

ARTICLE 5

Covenants

 

5.1   Security Interest. This Agreement constitutes a “security agreement” within the meaning of the UCC. In order to secure payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, the Company hereby grants, assigns, transfers, pledges, for the benefit of the Purchasers hereunder, a security interest in, and a Lien on, all of Company’s right, title, estate, claim and interest in and to any or all of the items listed on Exhibit C to this Agreement whether now owned or hereafter acquired and wherever located (collectively, the “LLC Interests Collateral”).

 

5.2   Financing Statements. The Company will promptly cooperate with the Purchasers in executing such financing statements, continuation statements, assignments, certificates and other documents with respect to the LLC Interests Collateral, pursuant to the applicable Uniform Commercial Code and otherwise, as any Purchaser may reasonably request in order to enable such Purchaser to perfect and from time to time to renew the security interest granted, all in form reasonably satisfactory to such Purchaser, and the Company will pay the costs of filing the same in all public offices where such Purchaser deems such financing to be necessary or desirable.

 

5.3   Return of LLC Interests Collateral. Upon payment in full of the Note and any other amounts due hereunder, or upon the full conversion of the Note into securities of the Company, the security interest in granted herein shall be released.

 

5.4   Further Assurances. The Company agrees that at any time and from time to time, at its expense, the Company will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that any Purchaser may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby and to enable such Purchaser to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any LLC Interests Collateral.

5.5   Company’s Continuing Rights. Notwithstanding the security interest in the LLC Interests Collateral granted to and created in favor of the Purchasers under this Agreement, the Company shall have the right until the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Assets and to collect the Accounts, in each case only in the ordinary course of the Company’s business.

 

5.6   Limitation on Debt. For so long as any Note (or portion thereof) remains outstanding, the Company will not raise any additional indebtedness ranking pari passu with or senior to the Notes and will be precluded from incurring additional subsidiary level indebtedness such that consolidated debt/EBITDA ratio would exceed 3.0 times EBITDA.

 

5.7   Opinion of Counsel . In connection with the Closing, the Company shall deliver an opinion of Counsel that the membership interests underlying the LLC Interests Collateral constitute the legal valid binding obligation of the obligor and such interests have been validly issued under the Texas Limited Liability Company Act.

 

5.8   Collateral Impairment . To the extent the Purchasers determine in their reasonable discretion that the LLC Interests Collateral has become materially impaired and provide a notice to the Company detailing the analysis underlying such determination, Purchasers shall have the right to demand that the Company replace within a commercially reasonable time such LLC Interests Collateral with replacement collateral of JetPay or the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to provide such replacement collateral if the provision of such collateral would cause the Company to breach any existing material contractual obligations then in effect at the time of such request.

 

5.9   Financial Statements . For so long as any Note (or portion thereof) remains outstanding, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered upon request of the Payees within 15 business days: (i) a balance sheet for each of the Company, ADC and JetPay as of the last day of the previous calendar month, (ii) a statement of income for each of the Company, ADC and JetPay for the monthly period ending on the last day of the previous calendar month and (iii) a statement of cash flows for each of the Company, ADC and JetPay for the monthly period ending on the last day of the previous calendar month.

 

5.10    No Further Liens. For so long as any Note (or portion thereof) remains outstanding, the Company will maintain good title to, or the right to use, the Assets and the LLC Interests Collateral, as the case may be, free and clear of any Liens or restrictions on the transfer thereof except for (i) the Permitted Liens or (ii) Liens approved by each of the Purchasers.

 

5.11    Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, each of the following terms has the meaning set forth below:

Assets ” means all assets of the Company whether now existing or hererafter arising or acquired, including all proceeds thereof, provided , however , that Assets shall not include the LLC Interests Collateral.

 

Chattel Paper ” means a writing or writings which evidence both a monetary obligation and a security interest in, or a lease of, specific goods.

(b) If the Payee elects to convert all of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the Note in accordance with Section 3(a), then the Payee shall, following the Closing and at least ten (10) business days prior to the Maturity Date, deliver a written notice to the Company indicating the Payee’s election to convert this Note pursuant to Section 3(a).

If a registration pursuant to Section 3(a) involves an Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration, including the Registrable Securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 3, exceeds the maximum number of shares of Common Stock specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of such shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, all of the shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell for its own account, if any, (ii) second, all of the shares of Common Stock being registered by holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration (as hereinafter defined), and (iii) third, the Registrable Securities of the holder(s) of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Incidental Registration. To the extent that shares of Common Stock to be included in the Incidental Registration must be allocated among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to clause (iii) above, such shares shall be allocated pro rata among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities based on the number of shares of Common Stock that such holder(s) of Registrable Securities shall have requested to be included therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Incidental Registration is an Underwritten Offering, the managing underwriter or underwriters may select shares for inclusion, or exclude shares completely, in such Incidental Registration on a basis other than a pro rata basis if, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, selection on such other basis, or inclusion of such shares, would be material to the success of the offering.

 

 
 

 

(c)                 Expenses . The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.

 

(d)                Liability for Delay . The Company shall not be held responsible for any delay in the filing or processing of a registration statement which includes any Registrable Securities due to requests by holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 nor for any delay in requesting the effectiveness of such registration statement.

 

(e)                 Participation in Underwritten Registrations . No holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such holder (i) agrees to sell such holder’s Common Stock on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons who have selected the underwriter and (ii) accurately completes in a timely manner and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, escrow agreements, underwriting agreements and other documents customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

(c)                 Priority on Demand Registration . If any of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold in a firm commitment Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Demand Registration advise the Company and the holders of such Registrable Securities in writing that in its or their reasonable opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold in such Demand Registration exceeds the maximum number of shares specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock, the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by the party requesting such Demand Registration and such party’s Permitted Transferees; (ii) second, shares of Common Stock to be offered by the Company in such Demand Registration; and (iii) third, shares of Common Stock requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by all other holders of Common Stock, provided that such amount shall be allocated among such other holders as provided in Section 3(b).

(b)                Indemnification by the Holders of Registrable Securities Which Are Registered . It shall be a condition of the Company’s obligations herein to effect any registration under the Securities Act that there shall have been delivered to the Company an agreement or agreements duly executed by each holder of Registrable Securities to be so registered, whereby such holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each other Person, if any, which controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act against any Damages, joint or several, to which the Company, or such other Person or such Person controlling the Company may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, but only to the extent that such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which, in each such case, has been made in or omitted from such registration statement, such preliminary or final prospectus or such amendment or supplement in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by such holder of Registrable Securities specifically for inclusion in such document. The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above, with respect to information furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any prospectus or registration statement.

 

(c)                 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding Sections 6(a) and 6(b); and (ii) unless the indemnified party has been advised by its counsel that a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified and indemnifying parties with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation; provided , however , that no indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (other than for the payment of money only) without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of the claim, will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

 

 
 

 

(d)                Contribution . If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding Sections 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any Damages referred to therein, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided , however , that in no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the difference between the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation and all amounts previously contributed by such holder with respect to such Damages. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

If a registration pursuant to Section 3(a) involves an Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration, including the Registrable Securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 3, exceeds the maximum number of shares of Common Stock specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of such shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, all of the shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell for its own account, if any, (ii) second, all of the shares of Common Stock being registered by holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration (as hereinafter defined), and (iii) third, the Registrable Securities of the holder(s) of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Incidental Registration. To the extent that shares of Common Stock to be included in the Incidental Registration must be allocated among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to clause (iii) above, such shares shall be allocated pro rata among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities based on the number of shares of Common Stock that such holder(s) of Registrable Securities shall have requested to be included therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Incidental Registration is an Underwritten Offering, the managing underwriter or underwriters may select shares for inclusion, or exclude shares completely, in such Incidental Registration on a basis other than a pro rata basis if, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, selection on such other basis, or inclusion of such shares, would be material to the success of the offering.

 

 
 

 

(c)                 Expenses . The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.

 

(d)                Liability for Delay . The Company shall not be held responsible for any delay in the filing or processing of a registration statement which includes any Registrable Securities due to requests by holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 nor for any delay in requesting the effectiveness of such registration statement.

 

(e)                 Participation in Underwritten Registrations . No holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such holder (i) agrees to sell such holder’s Common Stock on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons who have selected the underwriter and (ii) accurately completes in a timely manner and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, escrow agreements, underwriting agreements and other documents customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

4.               Demand Registration .

 

(a)                 Right to Demand Registration . Subject to Section 4(b) below, the Stockholder shall be entitled to make a written request (“ Demand Registration Request ”) to the Company for registration with the Commission under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities owned by it (a “ Demand Registration ”) (which Demand Registration Request shall specify the intended number of Registrable Securities to be disposed of by such holder and the intended method of disposition thereof); provided , however , that (i) the Company may, if the Board of Directors so determines in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that due to a pending or contemplated acquisition or disposition or public offering it would be inadvisable to effect such Demand Registration at such time, defer such Demand Registration for a single period not to exceed ninety (90) days but, if requested by the party requesting such Demand Registration, the Company shall prepare for such Demand Registration so that it will be in a position to file for such Demand Registration promptly following the expiration of such period; provided , however , that the Company may not defer Demand Registrations more than once in any 365-day period, and (ii) if the Company elects not to effect the Demand Registration pursuant to the terms of this sentence, no Demand Registration shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes hereof. Promptly after receipt of the Demand Registration Request, the Company will serve written notice (the “ Demand Notice ”) of such Demand Registration Request to all holders of Registrable Securities and, subject to paragraph (c) below, the Company will include in such registration all Registrable Securities of such holders with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein from such holders within five (5) business days after the receipt by the applicable holder of the Demand Notice. All requests made pursuant to this Section 4(a) will specify the aggregate number of the Registrable Securities to be registered and will also specify the intended methods of disposition thereof.

 

 
 

 

(b)                Number of Demand Registrations . The Stockholder shall be entitled to make up to three (3) Demand Registration Requests at any time. A Demand Registration shall not be counted as a Demand Registration hereunder until such Demand Registration has been declared effective and maintained continuously effective for a period of at least six (6) months or such shorter period when all Registrable Securities included therein have been sold in accordance with such Demand Registration.

 

(c)                 Priority on Demand Registration . If any of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold in a firm commitment Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Demand Registration advise the Company and the holders of such Registrable Securities in writing that in its or their reasonable opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold in such Demand Registration exceeds the maximum number of shares specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock, the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by the party requesting such Demand Registration and such party’s Permitted Transferees; (ii) second, shares of Common Stock to be offered by the Company in such Demand Registration; and (iii) third, shares of Common Stock requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by all other holders of Common Stock, provided that such amount shall be allocated among such other holders as provided in Section 3(b).

 

(d)                Expenses . The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 4.

 

5.               Registration Procedures . If and whenever the Company is required to effect or cause the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided herein, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

 

(a)                 prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities, and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided , however , that the Company may discontinue any registration of its securities which is being effected pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 herein at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto, provided , however , that any such discontinuance is conducted in accordance with all other applicable provisions hereof;

 

(b)                prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less than 180 days or such shorter period which will terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold (but not before the expiration of the applicable period referred to in Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder, if applicable) and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

 

 
 

 

(c)                 furnish to each seller of such Registrable Securities such number of copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereof (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller;

 

(d)                use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each seller shall request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller; provided , however , that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or subject itself to general taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;

 

(e)                 immediately notify each seller of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act within the appropriate period mentioned in clause (b) of this Section 5, of the Company becoming aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and within ten (10) days prepare and furnish to all sellers a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;

 

(f)                 The Company will have the right, in its sole discretion, to select an underwriter or underwriters. In connection with any Public Offering, the Company will enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in any such Public Offering, including the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with the FINRA;

 

(g)                if such Registrable Securities are not already listed or quoted and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of an exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, use its best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, and provide an independent transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

 

 
 

 

(h)                furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement a signed counterpart, addressed to such seller (and the underwriters, if any) of:

 

 (i) an opinion of counsel for the Company, dated the effective date of such registration statement (or, if such registration involves an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the sellers of not less than fifty percent (50%) of such Registrable Securities (and the managing underwriter, if any); and

 

(ii) a “comfort” letter, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration involves an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included in such registration statement, covering such matters with respect to such registration statement as are customarily covered in accountants’ letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten offerings of securities as may reasonably be requested by the sellers of not less than fifty percent (50%) of such Registrable Securities (and the managing underwriter, if any);

 

(i)                  make available for inspection by any seller of such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or any such underwriter (individually, an “ Inspector ” and collectively, the “ Inspectors ”), all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility (collectively, the “ Records ”), and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; provided , however , that any Records that are designated by the Company in writing as confidential shall be kept confidential by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such registration statement or (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction. Each Investor agrees that non-public information obtained by it as a result of such Inspections shall be deemed confidential and acknowledges its obligations under the Federal securities laws not to trade any securities of the Company on the basis of material non-public information; and

 

(j)                  cause appropriate officers of the Company to (i) prepare and make presentations at any “road shows” and before analysts and rating agencies, as the case may be, (ii) take other actions to obtain ratings for any Registrable Securities and (iii) otherwise use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by the underwriters in the offering, marketing or selling of the Registrable Securities.

 

 
 

 

(k)                The Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected promptly to furnish to the Company such information regarding the distribution of such Registrable Securities as may be legally required. Such information shall be furnished in writing and shall state that it is being furnished for use in the registration statement.

 

(l)                  Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in clause (e) of this Section 5, such holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by clause (e) of this Section 5, and, if so directed by the Company, such holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of the Company’s notice. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the period mentioned in clause (b) of this Section 5 shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 5 and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by clause (e) of this Section 5.

 

6.               Indemnification .

 

(a)                 Indemnification by the Company . The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each holder of Registrable Securities which shall have been registered under the Securities Act, and such holder’s officers, directors and agents and each other Person, if any, who controls such holder within the meaning of the Securities Act and each other Person (including underwriters) who participates in the offering of such Registrable Securities against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs or expenses (collectively, the “ Damages ”), joint or several, to which such holder or controlling Person or participating Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact made by the Company or its agents contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse such holder of Registrable Securities or such controlling Person or participating Person in connection with investigating or defending any such Damages or proceeding; provided , however , that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Damages arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, such preliminary or final prospectus or such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such holder or such controlling or participating Person, as the case may be, specifically for inclusion in any such document; or (ii) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission in a prospectus if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement to the prospectus which amendment or supplement is delivered to such holder in a timely manner and such holder thereafter fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented prior to or concurrently with the sale of such Registrable Securities to the Person asserting such Damages and such Damages would have been avoided if such holder had so delivered such prospectus as so amended or supplemented.

 

 
 

 

(b)                Indemnification by the Holders of Registrable Securities Which Are Registered . It shall be a condition of the Company’s obligations herein to effect any registration under the Securities Act that there shall have been delivered to the Company an agreement or agreements duly executed by each holder of Registrable Securities to be so registered, whereby such holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each other Person, if any, which controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act against any Damages, joint or several, to which the Company, or such other Person or such Person controlling the Company may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, but only to the extent that such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which, in each such case, has been made in or omitted from such registration statement, such preliminary or final prospectus or such amendment or supplement in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by such holder of Registrable Securities specifically for inclusion in such document. The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above, with respect to information furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any prospectus or registration statement.

 

(c)                 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding Sections 6(a) and 6(b); and (ii) unless the indemnified party has been advised by its counsel that a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified and indemnifying parties with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation; provided , however , that no indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (other than for the payment of money only) without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of the claim, will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

 

 
 

 

(d)                Contribution . If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding Sections 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any Damages referred to therein, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided , however , that in no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the difference between the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation and all amounts previously contributed by such holder with respect to such Damages. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

7.               Hold-Back Agreements .

 

(a)                 Restrictions on Public Sale by Company and Holders of Common Stock . The Company and each holder of Common Stock whose Common Stock is eligible for inclusion in a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Sections 3 or 4, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in an Underwritten Offering of any Registrable Securities, agrees not to, directly or indirectly (except with respect to the Company in connection with a Special Registration Statement), (i) offer for sale, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any Common Stock (including, without limitation, Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Commission and Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of any option or warrant) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock , or (ii) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of such Common Stock , whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, during the ten (10) day period prior to, and for a period of 180 days after, the effective date of the Registration Statement, to the extent timely notified in writing by the managing underwriter, or, with respect to each such holder of Common Stock, the Company. Additionally, the Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause each holder of Common Stock purchased from the Company at any time after the date of the Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) to agree to the provisions of this Section 7(a).

 

 
 

 

(b)                Certain Holders of Registrable Securities Excepted . The provisions of Section 7(a) shall not apply to any holder of Registrable Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute or regulation from entering into any such agreement; provided , however , that any such holder shall undertake, in its request to participate in any such Underwritten Offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities (except as part of such Underwritten Registration) during such period unless it has provided forty-five (45) days prior written notice of such sale or distribution to the managing underwriter or underwriter.

 

8.                                           Underwritten Registration . If any of the Registrable Securities covered by any Incidental Registration or a Demand Registration are to be sold in an Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Person may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwritten arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangement and (b) accurately completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, custody agreements, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

Amendment, Guarantee and Waiver Agreement

 

This Amendment, Guarantee and Waiver Agreement (this “ Agreement ”) is made by each of Universal Business Payment Solutions Acquisition Corporation, (“ Parent ”), Ten Lords, Ltd (“ Ten Lords ”) and JetPay, LLC (“ JetPay ”) as of December 28, 2012. Reference is made to that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2010 (the “ Loan Agreement ”) by and among Ten Lords, Providence Interactive Capital, LLC, JetPay, JetPay ISO Services, LLC, JetPay Merchant Services, LLC, JT Holdings, L.P., JT Holdings Management, LLC (together with JetPay, JetPay ISO Services, LLC, JetPay Merchant Services, LLC and JT Holdings, L.P., the “ JetPay Companies ”), WLES, Ltd. and Trent Voigt. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

WHEREAS, JetPay has agreed to an acquisition by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent of all of JetPay’s outstanding equity interests (the “ JetPay Sale ”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Parent, JP Merger Sub, LLC, JetPay, WLES, L.P.., and Trent Voigt (the “ Merger Agreement ”);

 

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Paine Companies to consent to transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the parties to the Loan Agreement desire to modify certain provisions of the Loan Agreement, the Redemption Note, the Pledge Agreement and the Security Agreement (collectively, the “ Loan Documents ”), and Parent desires to guarantee certain of JetPay’s obligations under the Loan Documents;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Adjustment to Balance Due; Tax Gross-Up Payment .

 

(a) The parties acknowledge that as of the date of this Agreement, but before giving effect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, the balance of principal and accrued, unpaid interest due under the Redemption Note (the “ Note Balance ”) is $8,331,368.69. Contingent and effective upon consummation of the Merger Agreement, the Note Balance shall be immediately and automatically increased by $10,000 to reimburse attorneys’ fees the Paine Companies have incurred and reasonably anticipate incurring in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

 

(b ) In addition, JetPay shall cause a cash payment to be made, on or before April 15 of each calendar year following a calendar year in which payments are made on the Redemption Note, in the amount, calculated on a grossed up after-tax basis and determined separately for each separate taxpayer, of any increase in actual tax liability of the owners of Ten Lords, Ltd. and Providence Interactive Capital, LLC (collectively, the “ Payees ”) resulting from (a) any increase in the capital gains tax rate over 15%, (b) the 3.8% surtax on investment income and gains imposed by Internal Revenue Code Section 1411, and (c) any other increase in taxes or similar obligations the owners of the Payees will be required to pay as a result of the Redemption Note being paid after December 31, 2012. Prior to or on the date such tax payments are made, the Payees shall provide reasonable documentation to JetPay evidencing such increases in actual tax liability. A written or emailed statement signed by an accountant, attorney or another professional tax advisor familiar with the Payees’ owners’ tax filings and stating the amount of the increase in the Payees’ owners’ actual tax liability as a result of the matters discussed in this paragraph shall be sufficient for this purpose. The purpose of this provision of this Section 1 is to put the owners of the Payees in the same after-tax economic position they would have been in if the Redemption Note was paid and taxed under 15% capital gains rates and income tax rates applicable under the tax law on or before December 31, 2012.

 

 
 

 

2. Minimum Payment Amount . Contingent and effective upon consummation of the Merger Agreement, the JetPay Companies shall pay to the Payees, as a partial payment of the Note Balance, an amount equal to the greater of:

 

(a)     the portion of the Note Balance, as adjusted pursuant to Section 1(a) above, that exceeds $6,000,000; or

 

(b)    the Note Balance, as adjusted pursuant to Section 1(a) above, minus the product of $6.08 multiplied by the Excess Redemption Amount. The “ Excess Redemption Amount ” shall be equal to the number of shares of Parent common stock in excess of 6,385,482 shares that are to be redeemed for pro rata shares of the funds being held in a trust account established in connection with Parent’s initial public offering.

 

3. Consent and Waiver . Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 8 of the Loan Agreement, contingent and effective upon consummation of the Merger Agreement the Paine Companies hereby consent to the JetPay Sale, the entry by JetPay into the Merger Agreement and the performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby, and the Paine Companies hereby waive compliance with the Loan Agreement to the extent the JetPay Sale, the entry by JetPay into the Merger Agreement and the performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby are inconsistent with the Loan Agreement.

 

4. Limited Guarantee .

 

(a) Contingent and effective upon consummation of the Merger Agreement, Parent unconditionally and irrevocably, as a primary obligor and not only a surety, guarantees the due and punctual payment, performance and discharge of each of the JetPay Companies’ obligations under the Loan Documents and under this Agreement (the “ Obligations ”). In no event shall Parent be deemed to be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amounts currently outstanding under the Redemption Note (as modified pursuant to Section 1 above) plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon. This is an absolute, unconditional, present, primary and continuing guarantee of payment and not only of collectability.

 

 
 

 

(b) In the event that any payment to Ten Lords in respect of any Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, Parent shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Obligations as if such payment had not been made.

 

(c) Such guarantee will remain in full force and effect until such time as the Obligations have been satisfied in full.

 

5. Amendment . Contingent and effective upon consummation of the Merger Agreement, the Redemption Note shall be modified as follows:

 

(a)                 Interest shall accrue on the Redemption Note at a rate of 9.5% per annum for the first 180 days after consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and 13.5% per annum for so long thereafter as any amounts remain outstanding (subject to other provisions of the Redemption Note imposing a “Past Due Rate”).

 

(b)                The Redemption Note shall be due and payable in full on the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement. The JetPay Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all amounts due and payable under the Redemption Note to be repaid as soon as commercially practicable.

 

6. Conversion Option . The Payees may, at their option by one or more written notices (each a “ Conversion Notice ”) delivered to Parent at any time or times before repayment of the Redemption Note in full, elect to convert the then-existing Note Balance into shares of common stock of Parent. Each Conversion Notice shall state the portion of the Redemption Note the Payees wish to convert (the “ Conversion Amount ”). Upon receipt of a Conversion Notice, (a) the Note Balance shall be deemed immediately and automatically reduced by the Conversion Amount and (b) Parent shall immediately issue or cause to be issued to the Payees or their designee a number of shares of common stock of Parent equal to the quotient of the Conversion Amount divided by the Conversion Price. The “ Conversion Price ” shall be equal to $6.00 per share unless an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement) has occurred and has not been cured, in which case the Conversion Price shall be equal to the lower of: (i) $6.00 per share and (ii) such lower price per share as was the average closing price of shares of Parent common stock on any national stock exchange on which such shares trade for the previous ten trading days prior to the date Payees deliver a Conversion Notice. Parent shall grant the Payees certain registration rights as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

 
 

 

7. Conflict with the Loan Documents . Except as set forth herein, all other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with the Loan Documents, this Agreement will govern and control.

 

8. Binding Effect . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

9. Governing Law . This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas.

 

10. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts for the convenience of the parties hereto, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or portable document format shall be effective as delivery of a mutually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

 

11. Attorneys’ Fees . In the event of any dispute among the parties to this Agreement regarding its interpretation or a claim brought by a party to enforce its rights under this Agreement, the losing party in any such dispute or claim shall be responsible for the reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing party in connection with such dispute or claim.

Incidental Registration .

 

Right to Include Common Stock . If at any time or from time to time following the date the Company has consummated an Initial Public Offering the Company at any time proposes to register any of its Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the Initial Public Offering and other than on a Special Registration Statement), whether or not for sale for its own account, it will each such time, as promptly as practicable following the date of filing with the Commission or other applicable regulatory authority of a registration statement or similar document with respect to such registration, give written notice (the “ Incidental Registration Notice ”) to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to register its Common Stock under the Securities Act, and of such holders’ rights under this Section 3. Upon the written request of any such holders of Registrable Securities made within five (5) days of the date of the Incidental Registration Notice (which request shall specify the aggregate number of the Registrable Securities to be registered and will also specify the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the holders thereof (an “ Incidental Registration ”), to the extent required to permit the public disposition (in accordance with such intended methods thereof) of the Registrable Securities to be so registered; provided , however , that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register shares of Common Stock and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register the Company’s Common Stock, the Company shall give written notice of such determination to each holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith); (ii) if a registration requested pursuant to this Section 3 shall involve an underwritten public offering, any holder of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such registration may elect, in writing at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, not to register such securities in connection with such registration; and (iii) if, at any time after the 180-day or shorter period specified in Section 3(b), the sale of the securities has not been completed, the Company may withdraw from the registration the Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register and which have not been sold.

 

Priority in Incidental Registrations . If a registration pursuant to Section 3(a) involves an Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such registration, including the Registrable Securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 3, exceeds the maximum number of shares of Common Stock specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of such shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, all of the shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell for its own account, if any, (ii) second, all of the shares of Common Stock being registered by holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration (as hereinafter defined), and (iii) third, the Registrable Securities of the holder(s) of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Incidental Registration. To the extent that shares of Common Stock to be included in the Incidental Registration must be allocated among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to clause (iii) above, such shares shall be allocated pro rata among the holder(s) of Registrable Securities based on the number of shares of Common Stock that such holder(s) of Registrable Securities shall have requested to be included therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Incidental Registration is an Underwritten Offering, the managing underwriter or underwriters may select shares for inclusion, or exclude shares completely, in such Incidental Registration on a basis other than a pro rata basis if, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, selection on such other basis, or inclusion of such shares, would be material to the success of the offering.

 

 
 

 

Expenses . The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.

 

Liability for Delay . The Company shall not be held responsible for any delay in the filing or processing of a registration statement which includes any Registrable Securities due to requests by holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 nor for any delay in requesting the effectiveness of such registration statement.

 

Participation in Underwritten Registrations . No holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such holder (i) agrees to sell such holder’s Common Stock on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons who have selected the underwriter and (ii) accurately completes in a timely manner and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, escrow agreements, underwriting agreements and other documents customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

Demand Registration .

 

Right to Demand Registration . Subject to Section 4(b) below, the Stockholder shall be entitled to make ua written request (“ Demand Registration Request ”) to the Company for registration with the Commission under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities owned by it (a “ Demand Registration ”) (which Demand Registration Request shall specify the intended number of Registrable Securities to be disposed of by such holder and the intended method of disposition thereof); provided , however , that (i) the Company may, if the Board of Directors so determines in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that due to a pending or contemplated acquisition or disposition or public offering it would be inadvisable to effect such Demand Registration at such time, defer such Demand Registration for a single period not to exceed ninety (90) days but, if requested by the party requesting such Demand Registration, the Company shall prepare for such Demand Registration so that it will be in a position to file for such Demand Registration promptly following the expiration of such period; provided , however , that the Company may not defer Demand Registrations more than once in any 365-day period, and (ii) if the Company elects not to effect the Demand Registration pursuant to the terms of this sentence, no Demand Registration shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes hereof. Promptly after receipt of the Demand Registration Request, the Company will serve written notice (the “ Demand Notice ”) of such Demand Registration Request to all holders of Registrable Securities and, subject to paragraph (c) below, the Company will include in such registration all Registrable Securities of such holders with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein from such holders within five (5) business days after the receipt by the applicable holder of the Demand Notice.

Number of Demand Registrations . The Stockhodler shall be entitled to make up to three (3) Demand Registration Requests at any time. A Demand Registration shall not be counted as a Demand Registration hereunder until such Demand Registration has been declared effective and maintained continuously effective for a period of at least six (6) months or such shorter period when all Registrable Securities included therein have been sold in accordance with such Demand Registration.

 

Priority on Demand Registration . If any of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold in a firm commitment Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Demand Registration advise the Company and the holders of such Registrable Securities in writing that in its or their reasonable opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold in such Demand Registration exceeds the maximum number of shares specified by the managing underwriter that may be distributed without adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock, the Company shall include in such registration only such maximum number of Registrable Securities which, in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters can be sold in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by the party requesting such Demand Registration and such party’s Permitted Transferees; (ii) second, shares of Common Stock to be offered by the Company in such Demand Registration; and (iii) third, shares of Common Stock requested to be included in such Demand Registration held by all other holders of Common Stock, provided that such amount shall be allocated among such other holders as provided in Section 3(b).

Indemnification by the Holders of Registrable Securities Which Are Registered . It shall be a condition of the Company’s obligations herein to effect any registration under the Securities Act that there shall have been delivered to the Company an agreement or agreements duly executed by each holder of Registrable Securities to be so registered, whereby such holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each other Person, if any, which controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act against any Damages, joint or several, to which the Company, or such other Person or such Person controlling the Company may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, but only to the extent that such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which, in each such case, has been made in or omitted from such registration statement, such preliminary or final prospectus or such amendment or supplement in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by such holder of Registrable Securities specifically for inclusion in such document. The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above, with respect to information furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any prospectus or registration statement.

 

 
 

 

Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding Sections 6(a) and 6(b); and (ii) unless the indemnified party has been advised by its counsel that a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified and indemnifying parties with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation; provided , however , that no indemnifying party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (other than for the payment of money only) without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of the claim, will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

 

Contribution . If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding Sections 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any Damages referred to therein, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided , however , that in no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the difference between the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation and all amounts previously contributed by such holder with respect to such Damages. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

Certain Holders of Registrable Securities Excepted . The provisions of Section 7(a) shall not apply to any holder of Registrable Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute or regulation from entering into any such agreement; provided , however , that any such holder shall undertake, in its request to participate in any such Underwritten Offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities (except as part of such Underwritten Registration) during such period unless it has provided forty-five (45) days prior written notice of such sale or distribution to the managing underwriter or underwriter.

14
 

 

2.2. Advances and Payments :

 

a. Except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Agreement (or in the case of an Interest Hedging Instrument under the applicable agreements), all payments of principal and of interest on the Term Loan and all Expenses, fees, indemnification obligations and all other charges and any other Obligations of Borrowers, shall be made to Lender at its banking office at 3801 Paxton Street, Harrisburg, PA 17111, or such other office as Lender may designate in writing, in United States dollars, in immediately available funds.

Each Borrower acknowledges that such Borrower’s failure to maintain sufficient funds in any checking, operating or deposit account for payment of any of the Obligations, or Lender’s failure to charge any such account shall not relieve Borrowers of any payment obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Any payments received prior to 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day shall be deemed received on such Business Day. Any payments (including any payment in full of the Obligations), received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day shall be deemed received on the immediately following Business Day.

 

2.3. Interest :

 

a. The unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan shall bear interest, subject to the terms hereof, at four percent (4.00%) per annum.

 

b. Interest shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first day of each month beginning on the first day of the first full calendar month after the Closing Date, and on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

b. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the per annum effective rate of interest on all outstanding principal under the Term Loan, shall at the option of Lender, be equal to seven percent (7%) per annum (“Default Rate”). All such increases may be applied retroactively to the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default. Borrowers agree that the Default Rate payable to Lender is a reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages and is not a penalty and that interest accruing at the Default Rate is payable on demand.

 

c. All contractual rates of interest chargeable on outstanding principal under the Term Loan shall continue to accrue and be paid even after Default, an Event of Default, maturity, acceleration, judgment, bankruptcy, insolvency proceedings of any kind or the happening of any event or occurrence similar or dissimilar.

 

d. Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay and Lender shall not collect interest at a rate higher than the maximum permitted by law or the maximum that will not subject Lender to any civil or criminal penalties. If, because of the acceleration of maturity the payment of interest in advance or any other reason, Borrowers are required, under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, to pay interest at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under such provisions shall immediately and automatically be reduced to such maximum rate and any payment made in excess of such maximum rate, together with interest thereon at the rate provided herein from the date of such payment, shall be immediately and automatically applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan as of the date on which such excess payment was made.

Such late charge shall be due and payable regardless of whether Lender has accelerated the Obligations. Borrowers agree that any late fee payable to Lender is a reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages and is not a penalty. The imposition of such late fee shall not be deemed a waiver of any Event of Default.

 

2.6. Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayments :

 

a. Borrowers may prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part at any time or from time to time, provided that any prepayment shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest. Each Borrower hereby agrees that promptly upon demand (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of such demand) by Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed), Borrowers will, jointly and severally, indemnify Lender against any net loss or expense which Lender may sustain or incur as a result of any such prepayment, including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by Lender to fund or maintain the Term Loan, as reasonably determined by Lender.

The provisions of this Section 2.6 (b) shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such disposition otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

16
 

 

c. Upon the incurrence by any Borrower of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness), Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such incurrence within five (5) Business Days of the date of such receipt.

f.

Following receipt of such notice, Borrowers agree to pay Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within ninety (90) days after presentation by Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumption upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In determining such amount, Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

In addition to all other rights, options and remedies granted or available to Lender under this Agreement or the Loan Documents (each of which is also then exercisable by Lender), or otherwise available at law or in equity, upon or at any time after the acceleration of the Obligations following the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than the rights with respect to clause (iv) below which Lender may exercise at any time after an Event of Default and regardless of whether there is an acceleration), Lender may, in its discretion, exercise all rights under the UCC and any other applicable law or in equity, and under all Loan Documents permitted to be exercised after the occurrence of an Event of Default, including the following rights and remedies (which list is given by way of example and is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all such rights and remedies):

If permitted by applicable law, any perishable inventory or Collateral which threatens to speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Lender without prior notice to such Borrower. Each Loan Party covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.

Each Loan Party specifically waives any right to require Lender to exercise other rights, options and remedies prior to exercising any such set-off rights. If any bank account of any Loan Party with Lender, any other subsidiary of Lender or Bank Affiliate or any participant is attached or otherwise liened or levied upon by any third party, Lender (and such participant) shall have and be deemed to have, without notice to any Loan Party, the immediate right of set-off and may apply the funds or amount thus set-off against any Obligations hereunder.
