Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Financing of up to $3,000,000

 

From March 2016 to the date of this report, Quantum Materials Corp. (the “ Company ”) conducted a private offering, up to $3,000,000, consisting of 8% unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “ Company Notes ”) which may be voluntarily converted into shares of the Company’s common stock and five-year warrants (the “ Company Warrants ”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The securities are sold as units (“ Units ”), with each Unit consisting of a Company Note, in the principal amount of $1,000 and Company Warrants to purchase 4,166 shares of the Company’s common stock, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D (“ Regulation D ”) promulgated thereunder.

 

On November 7, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the same date, with a private investor (the “ Investor ”) for 200 Units (the “ Securities Purchase Agreement ”). The transaction closed on November 7, 2016. Each of the other accredited investors entered into a subscription agreement, pursuant to which such accredited investor agreed to purchase a certain number of Units upon acceptance by the Company (the “ Subscription Agreement ”). As of the date of this report, the Company has raised $1,965,000 in the offering through the issuance to accredited investors, including Investor, of the Company Notes totaling $1,965,000 of principal and the Company Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,186,190 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company Notes are due in two years and include interest at the rate of 8% per annum, due annually. The Company may prepay the Company Notes, in whole or in part, at any time upon notice, without penalty. The initial interest payment is due twelve months from the date of issuance of the Company Notes in cash or common stock (at the discretion of the Company) at $0.12 per share. The Company Notes provide for customary events of default such as failing to timely make payments under the Company Notes when due and the occurrence of certain fundamental defaults, as described in the Company Notes. In the event of default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Company Notes at the lesser of (a) 10% per annum or (b) the highest rate permissible by law. The holders of the Company Notes may convert the Company Notes into shares of common stock, at any time and from time to time prior to the maturity date, at a price of $0.12 per share, subject to certain adjustments (the “ Conversion Price ”). The Company Notes will automatically convert into shares of common stock in the event (i) the Company’s common stock trades at or above 2.0 times the then applicable Conversion Price for a period of 30 consecutive trading days with minimum average trading volume of 250,000 shares per day over such period and (ii) the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion are freely-tradable by the holder thereof. Furthermore, in the event of a financing by the Company in an amount equal to or greater than $10,000,000, the Company Note shall be automatically converted into, at the discretion of the holder, either (i) shares of common stock (at the conversion price) or (ii) the next round of financing at a 20% discount to the next round of financing. The holder of the Company Note may covert the Company Note into shares of common stock at any time prior to the maturity date, at the Conversion Price.

 

The Company Warrant has an exercise price of $0.15. The Company Warrant shall be exercisable after the date of issuance and shall expire five years after the date of issuance, unless otherwise extended by the Company. The Company Warrant issued to the Investor includes cashless exercise rights.

 

Under the terms of the Company Note and Company Warrant issued to the Investor, at no time may the Company Note or Company Warrant issued to the Investor be converted into or exercised for shares of our common stock if such conversion or exercise would result in the Investor and its affiliates owning an aggregate of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may increase to 9.99% upon not less than 61 days prior written notice by the Investor.

 

The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement, Company Note, Company Warrant, Securities Purchase Agreement, Company Note issued to Investor and Company Warrant issued to Investor are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the forms of Securities Purchase Agreement, Company Note and Company Warrant, a copy of each which is attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 , 10.4 , 10.5 , and 10.6 respectively, and each of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.

UNIT SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

The undersigned, [__________________________] (“ Subscriber ”), hereby agrees with Quantum Materials Corp., a Nevada corporation (“ Company ”), as follows:

 

1. Reference is made to that certain Private Placement Memorandum of the Company, dated March 2016, pursuant to which the Company is offering for sale (the “ Offering ”) 3,000 units of the Company (each, a “ Unit ”), each consisting of (a) a $1,000 Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (the “ Note ,” and together with each other Note issued pursuant to the Offering, the “ Notes ”) and (b) a warrant (the “ Warrant ,” and together with each other Warrant issued pursuant to the Offering, the “ Warrants ”) to purchase 4,166 shares of the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“ Common Stock ”) at a purchase price of $0.15 per share.

 

2. Subscriber hereby subscribes for [___________] Units, and in consideration thereof, Subscriber hereby pays the Company an aggregate amount of $[__________]. The minimum subscription is 50 Units unless waived by the Company.

 

3. Subscriber acknowledges, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(a) Subscriber understands that the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time (the “ Federal Act ”), or any state securities laws, by reason of specific exemptions under the provisions thereof which depend in part upon the representations made by Subscriber in this Agreement. Subscriber understands that the Company is relying upon Subscriber’s representations and agreements contained in this Agreement (and any supplemental information furnished by Subscriber) for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the requirements for such exemptions.

 

(b) Subscriber has such knowledge, skill and experience in business, financial and investment matters so that Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Units. Subscriber is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Federal Act and is a sophisticated investor with knowledge and experience in business and financial matters. To the extent that Subscriber has deemed it appropriate to do so, Subscriber has retained, and relied upon, appropriate professional advice regarding the tax, legal and financial merits and consequences of the investment in the Units.

 

(c) Subscriber understands that the Units are “restricted securities” under applicable Federal securities laws and that the Federal Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission provide in substance that Subscriber may dispose of the Units only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Federal Act or an exemption from such registration if available. Subscriber further understands that the Company has no obligation or intention to register any of the Units under or to take action so as to permit sales pursuant to the Federal Act. Accordingly, Subscriber may dispose of the Units only in certain transactions which are exempt from registration under the Federal Act, including “private placements,” in which event the transferee will acquire “restricted securities” subject to the same limitations as in the hands of the Subscriber. Subscriber further understands that state securities laws allow sales of the Units only if the Units are registered or the transaction is subject to an applicable exemption. As a consequence, Subscriber understands that Subscriber must bear the economic risks of the investment in the Units for an indefinite period of time.

 

     
 

 

(d) Subscriber hereby confirms that Subscriber is acquiring the Units for investment only and not with a view to or in connection with any resale or distribution of the Units. Subscriber hereby affirms that Subscriber has no present intention of making any sale, assignment, pledge, gift, transfer or other disposition of the Units or any interest therein.

 

(e) Subscriber has not directly or indirectly, nor has any person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Subscriber, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitations, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the earlier to occur of (i) the time that Subscriber was first contacted by the Company, Roth Capital Partners, LLC, or any other person regarding an investment in the Company and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the date of this Agreement. Subscriber covenants that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed. For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

 

4. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not currently have adequate shares of Common Stock in its treasury to permit the conversion of the Notes or the Warrants comprising the Units. As such, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company will undertake to amend its certificate of incorporation, which action will require approval of the Company’s stockholders, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to amend its certificate of incorporation; provided however, that there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to obtain shareholder approval for the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock, such that there will be an adequate number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants. Accordingly, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it may not be able to convert the Notes or exercise the Warrants in the foreseeable future.

 

5. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Common Stock issued by the Company to Subscriber pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Units will bear the following legend:

 

The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws and may not be sold or transferred in the absence of such registration or an exemption therefrom under the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws.

 

6. Subscriber acknowledges that neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has offered or sold the Units to Subscriber by any form of general solicitation, general or public media advertising or mass mailing.

7. With the written consent of the Company and the record holders of a majority of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding (“ Majority in Interest ”), the obligations of the Company and the rights of the holders of the Notes may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, either retroactively or prospectively and either for a specified period of time or indefinitely), and with the same consent, such parties may amend this Agreement and the Notes. Without limiting the generality of the above, the Company and a Majority in Interest may require a conversion of all Notes into equity, extend the maturity of all Notes, and amend the applicable conversion rate of all Notes. The affirmative consent of each Noteholder would be required for any amendment of such Noteholder’s principal amount and interest rate. Upon the effectuation of any waiver, consent, agreement, amendment or modification set forth above, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the record holders of the Notes who have not previously consented thereto in writing.

 

8. The Company covenants and agrees that it may not, without the consent of a Majority in Interest, voting as a single class: (a) amend the terms of the Notes, except in accordance with Section 7 above; (b) authorize additional sales of Notes; (c) amend the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company in any manner which would impair or reduce the rights of the holders of the Notes; (d) liquidate or dissolve the Company; (e) enter into any line of business other than a business substantially similar or related to the existing business of the Company; or (f) dispose of any material assets of the Company with a total value in excess of $3 million.

 

9. The Notes shall be treated on a parri passu basis. All payments shall be made on a pro rata basis, based upon the outstanding principal balance of the Notes.

PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER QUESTIONNAIRE

 

Quantum Materials Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), is offering shares of Common Stock (the “ Securities ”) under the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), for a private offering of securities pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, as amended, promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (“ Regulation D ”). Regulation D provides certain guidelines for complying with that exemption. In order to comply with those guidelines, the Company must have reasonable grounds to believe that each prospective purchaser of the Securities has such knowledge and experience in financial, investment and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment and/or is deemed to be an “accredited investor” under Regulation D. The purpose of this questionnaire (this “ Questionnaire ”) is to obtain certain information from each prospective purchaser of Securities in order to enable the Company to satisfy its obligations under the requirements of that exemption. Prior to the Company issuing the Securities, each prospective purchaser must satisfy the Company with respect to, among other things, the prospective purchaser’s ability to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Securities.

 

If the Securities are to be issued in joint names (for example, in the names of both husband and wife), please answer the questions on behalf of both such prospective purchasers. Separate Questionnaires need not be completed by each such person unless so directed in response to question number 3 below. If additional space is needed to respond to any particular question, supplemental sheets should be attached.

 

This Questionnaire will be reviewed and retained by the Company. The Company will maintain the confidentiality of the information contained in this Questionnaire, subject to any requirement that the Company establish the availability of the exemption from registration or compliance with the accreditation standards referred to above or compliance with the applicable provisions of law.

 

In connection with the private offering of the Securities, the undersigned represents and warrants as follows, upon the accuracy and completeness of which representations and warranties the Company may rely in determining whether the offering is exempt from registration and satisfies certain other requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws (questions that do not apply to particular investors should be left blank):

The Investor understands that the Securities, except as set forth below, shall bear any legends as required by applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws in addition to a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

 

[NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN][THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN] REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A CUSTOMARY FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

 

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the legend set forth above and to issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Securities upon which it is stamped, or to issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the Depository Trust Company (“ DTC ”), unless otherwise required by state securities or “blue sky” laws, at such time as (i) such Securities are registered for resale under the 1933 Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a form generally acceptable to the Company’s legal counsel, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, or (iii) such holder provides the Company and its legal counsel with reasonable assurance in writing that the Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company agrees that, following the effective date of a registration statement covering the resale of such Securities or at such time as such legend is not required pursuant to this Section 4.4, the Company shall, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by the Investor to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “ Legend Removal Date ”), either: (A) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Investor a certificate representing such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (B) cause the Company’s transfer agent to credit the Investor’s or its designee’s account at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of Common Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable represented by the certificate so delivered by the Investor. If the Company fails on or prior to the Legend Removal Date to either (i) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Investor a certificate representing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (ii) cause the Company’s transfer agent to credit the balance account of the Investor or its designee at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of Common Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, represented by the certificate delivered by the Investor pursuant hereto, then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Investor, the Company shall pay in cash to the Investor on each day after the Legend Removal Date that the issuance or credit of such shares is not timely effected an amount equal to 1.0% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, not issued to the Investor on a timely basis and to which the Investor is entitled and (B) the VWAP for the five Trading Day period immediately preceding the Legend Removal Date. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to so properly deliver such unlegended certificates or so properly credit the account of the Investor or its designee at DTC by the Legend Removal Date, and if on or after the Legend Removal Date the Investor purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares that the Investor anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend, then the Company shall, within three Trading Days after the Investor’s request, pay cash to the Investor in an amount equal to the Investor’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased, at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver a certificate or credit the Investor’s or its designee’s account at DTC for such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled.

The Company has not been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for, and the Company has no reason to believe that it will be unable to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.25        Employee Relations. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement and does not employ any member of a union.

No executive officer or other key employee of the Company is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject the Company to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim. The Company is not operated in such a manner as to qualify as a passive foreign investment company, as defined in Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”).

The Company has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event.

 

5.36        Ranking of Note . The Notes shall be treated on a parri passu basis. All payments shall be made on a pro rata basis, based upon the outstanding principal balance of the Notes.

The Investor is (i) acquiring the Units, and the Notes and Warrants comprising the Units, (ii) upon conversion of the Notes contained in the Units will acquire the Conversion Shares, and (iii) upon exercise of the Warrants contained in the Units will acquire the Warrant Shares, in each case for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of any part thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act. The Investor is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. The Investor does not presently have any contract, agreement, undertaking, arrangement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof (a “ Person ”) to sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise distribute any of the Securities.

6.3        Accredited Investor Status; Investment Experience. The Investor is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. The Investor can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities.

6.5        Information. The Investor and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Investor. The Investor and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by the Investor or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect the Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein. The Investor understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. The Investor has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities. The Investor is relying solely on its own accounting, legal and tax advisors, and not on any statements of the Company or any of its agents or representatives, for such accounting, legal and tax advice with respect to its acquisition of the Securities and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

6.6        No Governmental Review.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Agreement and the consummation by the Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities or “Blue Sky” laws) applicable to the Investor, except in the case of clause (ii) above, for such conflicts, defaults or rights which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

 

6.8        Organization and Standing. The Investor is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Illinois.

 

6.9        Certain Transactions . The Investor has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitations, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the earlier to occur of (i) the time that the Investor was first contacted by the Company, Roth Capital Partners, LLC, or any other person regarding an investment in the Company and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the date of this Agreement. The Investor covenants that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed.

If, (i) at any time the Investor owns any Securities, the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) under the 1933 Act (a “ Public Information Failure ”), or (ii) the Company shall fail to take such action as is reasonably requested by the Investor to enable the Investor to sell the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company’s transfer agent as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Investor and otherwise fully cooperate with Investor and Investor’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act), then, in either case, in addition to the Investor’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Investor, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Investor’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Investor to transfer the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act. The payments to which the Investor shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 8 are referred to herein as “ Rule 144 Failure Payments .” Rule 144 Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Rule 144 Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Trading Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Rule 144 Failure Payments is cured.

To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

 

10.        Registration of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.

The Investor and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such registration statement and any amendment or supplement to such registration statement and any related prospectus prior to its filing with the Commission, and the Company shall give due consideration to all such comments. The Investor shall furnish all information reasonably requested by the Company for inclusion therein. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement and any amendment declared effective by the Commission at the earliest possible date. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act and available for resales of all of the Registrable Securities at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Investor may resell all of the Registrable Securities without restriction pursuant to the last sentence of Rule 144(b)(1)(i) promulgated under the Securities Act (or successor thereto) or (ii) the date on which the Investor shall have resold all the Registrable Securities. The registration statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any 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, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

The Investor shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company and its Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. “ Common Share Equivalents ” means any securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries which entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Shares, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Shares. “ Variable Rate Transaction ” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price, exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Shares at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities (including, without limitation, pursuant to any “cashless exercise” provision), or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Shares (including, without limitation, any “full ratchet” or “weighted average” anti-dilution provisions), (ii) issues or sells any debt or equity securities, including without limitation, Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents, either (A) at a price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Shares, or (B) that is subject to or contains any put, call, redemption, buy-back, price-reset or other similar provision or mechanism (including, without limitation, a “Black-Scholes” put or call right) that provides for the issuance of additional debt or equity securities of the Company or the payment of cash by the Company, or (iii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an “equity line of credit” (other than with the Investor), “at-the-market offering” or other continuous offering or similar offering of Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents, whereby the Company may sell Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents at a future determined price. “ Exempt Issuance ” means the issuance of (a) Common Shares or options to employees, officers, directors or vendors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, by the Board of Directors or a majority of the members of a committee of directors established for such purpose, (b) the Units, Notes and Warrants in connection with the Offering, or any Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any Notes or Warrants issued in the Offering, (c) Common Shares issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of any Common Share Equivalents that are issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement, provided that such Common Share Equivalents have not been amended since the date of this Agreement to increase the number of such securities or Common Shares or to decrease the exercise price, exchange price or conversion price of such securities, (d) securities issued to the Investor, and (e) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by the Board of Directors or a majority of the members of a committee of directors established for such purpose, which acquisitions or strategic transactions can have a Variable Rate Transaction component, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and shall provide to the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities.

WARRANTS

 

THE WARRANTS EVIDENCED HEREBY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE THEREOF ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THAT CERTAIN SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN QUANTUM MATERIALS CORP., A NEVADA CORPORATION (THE “ COMPANY ”), AND THE PERSON IDENTIFIED AT THE END OF THIS INSTRUMENT AS THE INVESTOR (THE “ INVESTOR ”), DATED AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME (THE “ UNIT SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT ”).

 

NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A CUSTOMARY FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

 

This Warrant is granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Unit Subscription Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms have the definitions ascribed thereto in the Unit Subscription Agreement.

 

This certifies that the Investor is the holder of warrants to purchase (the “ Warrants ”) ___________ shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“ Common Stock ”) at a purchase price equal to the Exercise Price (such shares of Common Stock, the “ Applicable Shares ”). The exercise price, which shall be deliverable upon the exercise of each Warrant, shall be $0.15 per share of Common Stock as such price may be amended from time to time as provided herein (the “ Exercise Price ”). The Applicable Shares shall be deliverable upon surrender of this instrument and payment of such Exercise Price to the Company, but subject to the conditions set forth herein. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in immediately available funds and shall be accompanied by the Form of Exercise attached hereto properly completed by the holder.

 

The Warrants evidenced hereby shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time for Applicable Shares upon the exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof; provided however , that the Warrants may not be exercised after (and shall expire upon the occurrence of) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof.

 

   
   

 

Exercise of Warrants

 

The holder of Warrants evidenced hereby may exercise them, in part or in whole, by surrendering this instrument, with the Form of Exercise attached hereto properly completed and executed, and paying the Exercise Price (unless the Holder notifies the Company in such Form of Exercise that such exercise was made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined below)). In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be issued to the holder hereof a new instrument evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised. No adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made for any declared and unpaid dividends or distributions on any Applicable Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby.

 

The Company shall, to the extent necessary, issue fractional Applicable Shares upon exercise of Warrants or pay the cash equivalent thereof, at the Company’s option.

 

Cashless Exercise

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Applicable Shares determined according to the following formula (a “ Cashless Exercise ”):

 

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)

D

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

B = the quotient of (x) the sum of the VWAP of the Common Stock of each of the ten (10) trading days ending at the close of business on the Principal Market (as defined below) immediately prior to the time of exercise as set forth in the applicable Form of Exercise, divided by (y) ten (10).

 

C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the Applicable Shares at the time of such exercise.

 

D = the VWAP of the Common Stock at the close of business on the Principal Market on the date of the delivery of the applicable Form of Exercise.

 

For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, it is intended that the Applicable Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the holder, and the holding period for the Applicable Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Unit Subscription Agreement.

 

   
   

 

Principal Market ” means the OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc.

Limitations on Exercises

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, this Warrant shall not be exercisable by the holder hereof to the extent (but only to the extent) that the holder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “ Maximum Percentage ”) of the Common Stock. To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether this Warrant shall be exercisable (vis-à-vis other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the holder or any of its affiliates) and of which such securities shall be exercisable (as among all such securities owned by the holder) shall, subject to such Maximum Percentage limitation, be determined on the basis of the first submission to the Company for conversion, exercise or exchange (as the case may be). No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. For the purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including, without limitation, with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this paragraph to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Maximum Percentage beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such Maximum Percentage limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. The holders of Common Stock shall be third party beneficiaries of this paragraph and the Company may not amend or waive this paragraph without the consent of holders of a majority of its Common Stock. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the holder, the Company shall within one (1) business day confirm orally and in writing to the holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding, including by virtue of any prior conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities into Common Stock, including, without limitation, pursuant to this Warrant or securities issued pursuant to the Unit Subscription Agreement. By written notice to the Company, at any time the holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.

 

   
   

 

Taxes upon Exercise

 

The Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of the Applicable Shares upon exercise of Warrants. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulations.

 

Company to Provide Applicable Shares

 

The Company shall from time to time as may be necessary, reserve, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a sufficient number of Applicable Shares to permit the exercise of the entire number of Warrants evidenced hereby.

 

The certificates for Applicable Shares issued upon exercise, if any, may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject or as the Company may deem necessary or desirable. By acceptance of a certificate representing any Applicable Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants, the holder hereof acknowledges any restrictions on transfer set forth on such certificate and agrees that such holder will transfer such Applicable Shares only as provided thereon.

 

All Applicable Shares delivered upon exercise of Warrants shall be newly issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from any lien or adverse claim. The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of Applicable Shares upon exercise of Warrants, if any.

 

(a) Adjustments for Subdivisions, Combinations or Consolidations .

 

(i) Subdivisions . In the event that the Company shall effect a subdivision of outstanding Applicable Shares, the number of Applicable Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall concurrently with such subdivision be proportionately decreased.

 

(ii) Combinations or Consolidations . In the event that the outstanding Applicable Shares shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of Applicable Shares, the number of Applicable Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately increased.

 

(b) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution . If the Applicable Shares shall be changed into the same or a different number of securities in any class or classes of securities, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for below), then and in each such event the holder of each Warrant shall have the right thereafter to exercise such Warrant for the kind and amount of securities and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of Applicable Shares for which such Warrants might have been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 

   
   

 

(c) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc . In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into a corporation or another entity or the conversion of the Company into a corporation by any other means, each Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the kind and amount of equity interests or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of Applicable Shares of the Company deliverable upon exercise of such Warrant would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Paragraph (c) set forth with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of the Warrants, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the number of Warrants evidenced hereby or the Exercise Price therefor) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any equity interests or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants.

 

(d) Certificate as to Adjustments . Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to paragraphs (a) - (d) hereof, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of a Warrant or Warrants a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of a Warrant, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a similar certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of Applicable Shares and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the exercise of such Warrant.

 

Notice of Certain Transactions

 

In the event that (a) the Company takes any action which would require an adjustment in the Exercise Price, (b) the Company agrees to undertake any transaction regarding an adjustment hereunder, or (c) there is a dissolution of liquidation of the Company, then in each case, the Company shall mail to the holder a notice stating the proposed record or effective date, as the case may be. The Company shall mail the notice at least five days before the earlier of the proposed record date or the proposed effective date.
