(j)          Information Concerning Company.  The Reports and Other Written Information contain all material information relating to the Company and its operations and financial condition as of their respective dates which information is required to be disclosed therein.  Since December 31, 2010, and except as disclosed in the Reports or modified in the Reports and Other Written Information or in the Schedules hereto, there has been no Material Adverse Effect relating to the Company’s business, financial condition or affairs.  The Reports and Other Written Information including the financial statements included therein do 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, taken as a whole, not misleading in light of the circumstances and when made.

 

(k)          Solvency.  Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, and subject to the assumption of continuing as a going concern, (i) the Company’s fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid.  The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).

 

(l)          Defaults.  The Company is not in violation of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws.  The Company is (i) not in default under or in violation of any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound or affected, which default or violation would have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body or subject to or party to any order of any court or governmental authority arising out of any action, suit or proceeding under any statute or other law respecting antitrust, monopoly, restraint of trade, unfair competition or similar matters which default would have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) not in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(m)        No Integrated Offering.  Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security of the Company nor solicited any offers to buy any security of the Company under circumstances that would cause the offer of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of the Pink Sheets.  No prior offering will impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.  Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates will take any action or suffer any inaction or conduct any offering other than the transactions contemplated hereby that may be integrated with the offer or issuance of the Securities or that would impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.

 

8
 

 

(n)          No General Solicitation.  Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act) in connection with the Offering or sale of the Securities.

 

(o)          No Undisclosed Liabilities.  The Company has no liabilities or obligations which are material, individually or in the aggregate, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s business since December 31, 2010, and which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed in the Reports or in Schedule 5(o).

 

(p)          No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances.  Since December 31, 2010, except as disclosed in the Reports, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed in the Reports.

 

(q)          Dilution.  The Company’s executive officers and directors understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereby and recognize that the issuance of the Securities will have a potential dilutive effect on the equity holdings of other holders of the Company’s equity or rights to receive equity of the Company.  The board of directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment that the issuance of the Securities is in the best interests of the Company.  The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company or parties entitled to receive equity of the Company.

 

(r)          No Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers.  There are no material disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated by the Company to arise, between the Company and the accountants and lawyers previously and presently employed by the Company, including, but not limited to, disputes or conflicts over payment owed to such accountants and lawyers, nor have there been any such disagreements during the two years prior to the Closing Date.

 

(s)          Investment Company.  Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company is an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

 

(t)          Foreign Corrupt Practices.  Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

(d)          Filing Requirements.  Commencing on the four month anniversary after the date of this Agreement and until the last to occur of (i) all the Conversion Shares have been resold or transferred by the Subscribers pursuant to a registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i), or (ii) none of the Notes and Warrants are  outstanding (the date of such latest occurrence being the “End Date”), the Company will (A) voluntarily comply with all reporting and filing requirements that are applicable to an issuer subject to reporting obligations pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) even if the Company is not subject to such reporting requirements sufficient to permit the Subscribers to be able to resell the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144(b)(i), (B) voluntarily comply with all reporting requirements that are applicable to an issuer with a class of shares registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act even if the Company is not subject to such reporting requirements sufficient to permit the Subscribers to be able to resell the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144(b)(i) and (C) comply with all requirements related to any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement.  The Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts not to take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under said acts until the End Date.  Until the End Date, the Company will continue the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on a Principal Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market.  The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities if required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Subscriber promptly after such filing.

           11.         Unlegended Shares and 144 Sales.

 

(a)          Delivery of Unlegended Shares.  Within three (3) days (such third (3rd) day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares or any other Common Stock held by Subscriber has been sold pursuant to a registration statement or Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of Subscriber and, if required, Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company, at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(h) above (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted Common Stock certificate, if any, to Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.

 

(b)          DWAC.  In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, upon request of the Subscribers, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, if such transfer agent participates in such DWAC system.  Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.

 

16
 

(c)          Late Delivery of Unlegended Shares.  The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11 hereof later than the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber.  As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares, subject to the delivery default; provided that such delay is not the direct or indirect result of Subscriber’s actions or omissions.  If during any three hundred sixty (360) day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11 for an aggregate of thirty (30) days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Unlegended Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 110% of the Purchase Price paid by Subscriber for the Unlegended Shares that were not timely delivered, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed thirty day period and the denominator of which is the lowest conversion price or exercise price, as the case may be, during such thirty (30) day period, multiplied by the price paid by Subscriber for such Common Stock (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”).  The Company shall promptly pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.

 

(d)          Injunction.  In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11 and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or anyone associated or Affiliated with such Subscriber has not complied with Subscriber’s obligations under the Transaction Documents, or for any other reason, unless an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares, shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of the greater of (i) 125% of the amount of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Common Stock which is subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, (ii) the closing price of the Common Stock on the trading day before the issue date of the injunction multiplied by the number of Unlegended Shares to be subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.

 

(e)          Buy-In.  In addition to any other rights available to Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement and after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date, Subscriber, or a broker on Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall promptly pay in cash to Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by Subscriber) the amount by which (A) Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).  For purposes of illustration only, if Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest.  Subscriber shall promptly provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In, including evidence regarding the purchase of common stock for which the Buy-In is implemented.

                                (f)          144 Default.  At any time commencing six (6) months after the Closing Date, in the event Subscriber is not permitted to sell any of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend, or if such sales are permitted but subject to volume limitations or further restrictions on resale as a result of the unavailability to Subscriber of Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the 1933 Act or any successor rule (a “144 Default”), for any reason, including, but not limited to, failure by the Company to file quarterly, annual or any other filings required to be made by the Company by the required filing dates (provided that any filing made within the time for a valid extension shall be deemed to have been timely filed), or the Company’s failure to make information publicly available which would allow Subscriber’s reliance on Rule 144 in connection with sales of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, except due to a change in current applicable securities laws or because Subscriber is an Affiliate (as defined under Rule 144) of the Company, then the Company shall pay such Subscriber as liquidated damages and not as a penalty for each thirty (30) days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period less than thirty (30) days) an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the purchase price of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such 144 Default.  Liquidated Damages shall not be payable pursuant to this Section 11(e) in connection with Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares for such times as such shares may be sold by the holder thereof without any legend or volume or other restrictions pursuant to Section 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement.

 

12.          (a)          Favored Nations Provision.  Other than in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of a corporation or other entity, so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements, so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants, pursuant to plans described on Schedule 5(d) , (iv) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement on the terms disclosed in the Reports and which securities are also described on Schedule 12(a), and (v) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Notes which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement on the unamended terms in effect on the Closing Date (collectively, the foregoing (i) through (v) are “Excepted Issuances”), if at any time the Notes or Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall agree to or issue (the “Lower Price Issuance”) any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the conversion price in effect at such time or the Warrant exercise price in effect at such time, as applicable, without the unanimous consent of all of the Subscribers, then the conversion price and Warrant exercise price, as applicable, shall automatically be reduced to such other lower price.  The average conversion price of the Conversion Shares and average exercise price in relation to the Warrant Shares shall be calculated separately for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration or for consideration that cannot be determined at the time of issue will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.0001 per share of Common Stock.  For purposes of the issuance and adjustments described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock upon the sooner of (A) the agreement to or (B) actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or options and again at any time upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the conversion price or Warrant exercise price, as applicable, in effect upon such issuance.  The rights of the Subscribers set forth in this Section 12 are in addition to any other rights the Subscribers have pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes, Warrants or any other Transaction Document.

 

18
 

(b)          Outstanding Rights of First Refusal.  The Company hereby undertakes to provide within five business days after the Closing Date the notice required pursuant to Sections 12(b) (“Right of First Refusal”) of each of the subscription agreements it entered into on December 6, 2010 and April 18, 2011, respectively  (the “Previous Subscription Agreements”).  In the event any subscriber to the Previous Subscription Agreements (“Prior Subscriber”) elects to exercise its Right of First Refusal pursuant to Sections 12(b) of the Previous Subscription Agreements (the “Additional Investment”), the Company shall have the right within 20 days after the Closing Date, to use the Additional Investment to repay such amount of Note principal, including interest thereon, as shall equal the amount of the Additional Investment (“Recession Payment”).  Within 5 days after the Subscriber’s receipt of the Recession Payment, the Subscriber will return the original Note and Warrant to the Company in exchange for a Note and Warrant corresponding to the Subscriber’s remaining Note principal, interest and Warrants if any.

 

(c)          Maximum Exercise of Rights.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the exercise of the rights described in Section 12(a) would or could result in the issuance of an amount of Common Stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Subscriber as described in Section __ of the Notes and Section 9 of the Warrant, then the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such Common Stock without exceeding the applicable maximum amount set forth and such Subscriber notifies the Company accordingly.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, WIZARD WORLD, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [Holder’s name], with an address at [Holder’s _______________________Address], without demand, the sum of up to _______ Dollars ($___) (“Principal Amount”), with interest accruing thereon, on December __, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”), if not sooner paid or modified as permitted herein.

 

This Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”)  has been entered into pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement by and among the Borrower, the Holder and certain other holders (the “Other Holders”) of convertible promissory notes (the “Other Notes”), dated of even date herewith (the “Subscription Agreement”), for an aggregate Principal Amount of up to $455,000.  Unless otherwise separately defined herein, each capitalized term used in this Note shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.  The following terms shall apply to this Note:

 

ARTICLE I

 

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

1.1           Interest Rate.  Interest payable on this Note shall accrue at the annual rate of fourteen percent (14%) from the Issue Date through the Maturity Date.  Interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, when the Principal Amount and remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable, or sooner as described below.

 

1.2           Default Interest.  After the Maturity Date and during the pendency of an Event of Default (as described in Article III), a default interest rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum shall be in effect.

 

1.3           Conversion Privileges.  The Conversion Rights (as set forth in Article II) shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the Issue Date and until the Note is paid in full regardless of the occurrence of an Event of Default.  This Note shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless previously converted into Common Stock in accordance with Article II hereof.

25
 


1.4        Presentment.  The Holder may, at any time, present this Note or any sum payable hereunder to the Borrower in satisfaction of any sum due or payable by the Holder to Borrower for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, the payment for securities subscriptions.

 

ARTICLE II

 

CONVERSION RIGHTS

 

The Holder shall have the right to convert the Principal Amount and any interest due under this Note into shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), as set forth below.

 

2.1.        Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.

 

(a)         The Holder shall have the right from and after the Issue Date until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid portion of the Principal Amount of this Note, and accrued but unpaid interest, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a “Conversion Date”) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock , or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof, determined as provided herein.  Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed notice of conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing.  The Holder will not be required to surrender the Note to the Borrower until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied.  The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the Principal Amount of the Note and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to be converted, by the Conversion Price (as defined herein).

 

(b)         Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the conversion price (“Conversion Price”) shall be $0.60 per share.

 

(c)         The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a) hereof, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right (the “Conversion Right”) remains outstanding, as follows:

 

A.           Merger, Sale of Assets, etc.  If (A) the Borrower effects any merger or  consolidation of the Borrower with or into another entity, (B) the Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,  (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Borrower or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Borrower consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Borrower), or (F) the Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than a reverse merger) (in any such case, a “Fundamental  Transaction”), this Note, as to the unpaid portion of the Principal Amount and accrued interest thereon, if any, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to convert into such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such Fundamental Transaction, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the Conversion Right immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.  The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such Fundamental Transaction.

26
 

 

B.           Reclassification, etc.  If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid portion  of the Principal Amount  and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

 

C.           Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends.  If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

D.           Share Issuance.  So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue any Common Stock, except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in Section 12(a) of the Subscription Agreement), prior to the complete conversion or payment of this Note, for a consideration per share that is less than the Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price.  For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable Conversion Price. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Borrower for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.0001 per share of Common Stock.  The reduction of the Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.

 

(d)         Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly, but not later than the fifth (5th) business day after the effectiveness of the adjustment, provide notice to the Holder setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.  Failure to provide the foregoing notice is an Event of Default under this Note.

 

(e)         During the period the Conversion Right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized and un-issued Common Stock not less than an amount of Common Stock equal to 150% of the amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the full conversion of this Note.  Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

27
 

 

2.2         Method of Conversion.  This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and the Subscription Agreement.  Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the balance of the Principal Amount of this Note and accrued but unpaid interest which shall not have been converted or paid, upon surrender of the existing Note.

 

2.3.        Maximum Conversion.  The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates on a Conversion Date, (ii) any Common Stock issuable in connection with the unconverted portion of the Note, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of an aggregate of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower on such Conversion Date.  For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act, and Regulation 13d-3 promulgated thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of 4.99%.  The Holder shall have the authority to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 2.3 will limit any conversion hereunder and the extent such limitation applies and to which convertible or exercisable instrument or part thereof such limitation applies.  The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 2.3, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days’ prior written notice to the Borrower to increase such percentage up to 9.99%.

 

ARTICLE III

 

ACCELERATION AND REDEMPTION

 

3.1.        Redemption.  This Note may not be prepaid, converted, redeemed or called by the Borrower without the consent of the Holder, except as described in this Note.

 

3.2.        Fundamental Transaction.  Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, then in addition to the Holder’s rights described in Section 2.1(c)(A), until twenty (20) business days after the Borrower notifies the Holder of the occurrence of the Fundamental Transaction, the Holder may elect to accelerate the Maturity Date as of the date of the Fundamental Transaction and receive payment for the then outstanding Principal Amount, and any other amount owed to the Holder pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

The occurrence of any of the following events of default (“Event of Default”) occurring after Closing and not otherwise disclosed in the Subscription Agreement and schedules thereto, shall, at the option of the Holder hereof, make all sums of the Principal Amount and accrued but unpaid interest then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder immediately due and payable, upon demand, without presentment or grace period, all of which hereby are expressly waived, except as set forth below:

28

SERIES A COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

No. 2011-A-00_ Issue Date: August ___, 2011

 

WIZARD WORLD, INC. (formerly GoEnergy, Inc.), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received [Holder’s name], with an address at [Holder’s _______________________Address], or its assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company at any time after the Issue Date until 5:00 p.m., EDT on the five (5) year anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Expiration Date”), up to _______ (___) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at a per share purchase price of $0.60.  The aforedescribed purchase price per share, as adjusted from time to time as herein provided, is referred to herein as the “Purchase Price.”  The number and character of such shares of Common Stock and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment as provided herein.  The Company may reduce the Purchase Price for some or all of the Warrants, temporarily or permanently, provided such reduction is made as to all outstanding Warrants for all Holders of such Warrants.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated as of August __, 2011, entered into by the Company, Holder and the other signatories thereto.

 

As used herein the following terms, unless the context otherwise requires, have the following respective meanings:

 

(a)         The term “Company” shall mean Wizard World, Inc. (formerly GoEnergy, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, and any corporation which shall succeed or assume the obligations of Wizard World, Inc. hereunder.

 

(b)         The term “Common Stock” includes (i) the Company's Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, as authorized on the date of the Subscription Agreement, and (ii) any other securities into which or for which any of the securities described in (i) may be converted or exchanged pursuant to a plan of recapitalization, reorganization, merger, sale of assets or otherwise.

35
 

 

(c)         The term “Other Securities” refers to any stock (other than Common Stock) and other securities of the Company or any other person (corporate or otherwise) which the holder of the Warrant at any time shall be entitled to receive, or shall have received, on the exercise of the Warrant, in lieu of or in addition to Common Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable or shall have been issued in exchange for or in replacement of Common Stock or Other Securities pursuant to Section 4 hereof or otherwise.

 

(d)         The term “Warrant Shares” shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

1.           Exercise of Warrant.

 

1.1.        Number of Shares Issuable upon Exercise.  From and after the Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with the terms of Section 1.2 hereof or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in accordance with Section 1.3 hereof, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 hereof and Sections 12(a) and 14(p) of the Subscription Agreement.

 

1.2.        Full Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder hereof by delivery to the Company of an original or facsimile copy of the form of subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscription Form”) duly executed by such Holder and delivered within two (2) business day thereafter of payment, in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in effect.  The original Warrant is not required to be surrendered to the Company until it has been fully exercised.

 

1.3.        Partial Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by delivery of a Subscription Form in the manner and at the place provided in Section 1.2 hereof, except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect.  On any such partial exercise, upon the written request of the Holder, provided the Holder has surrendered the original Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.

 

1.4.        Fair Market Value.  For purposes of this Warrant, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean:

 

(a)           If the Company's Common Stock is traded on an exchange or on the NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE AMEX Equities, then the average of the closing sale prices of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to (but not including) the Determination Date;

 

(b)           If the Company's Common Stock is not traded on an exchange or on the NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE AMEX Equities, but is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the over-the-counter market or Pink Sheets, then the average of the closing bid and ask prices reported for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to (but not including) the Determination Date;

36
 

 

(c)           Except as provided in clause (d) below and Section 3.1 hereof, if the Company's Common Stock is not publicly traded, then as the Holder and the Company shall mutually agree, or in the absence of such an agreement after good faith efforts of the Company and the Holder to reach an agreement, by arbitration in accordance with the rules then standing of the American Arbitration Association, before a single arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by education and training to pass on the matter to be decided; or

 

(d)           If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company's charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.

 

1.5.        Company Acknowledgment.  The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.

 

1.6.        Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise.  The Company agrees that, provided the purchase price listed in the Subscription Form is received as specified in Section 2 hereof, the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which delivery of a Subscription Form shall have occurred and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part and the payment is made, and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter (“Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Company, at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes), will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share of Common Stock, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 hereof or otherwise.  The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Warrant Shares after the Warrant Share Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Holder.  As compensation to the Holder for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Holder for late issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant the proportionate amount of $100 per business day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Purchase Price of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised which are not timely delivered.  The Company shall promptly pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.  Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder may revoke all or part of the relevant Warrant exercise by delivery of a written notice to such effect to the Company, whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion of this Warrant, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

37
 

 

1.7.        Buy-In.  In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to a Holder the Warrant Shares as required pursuant to this Warrant, and the Holder or a broker on the Holder’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (A) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate Purchase Price of the Warrant Shares required to have been delivered together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).  For purposes of illustration, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of Purchase Price of Warrant Shares to have been received upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000, plus interest.  The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, which shall include evidence of the price at which such Holder had to purchase the Common Stock in an open-market transaction or otherwise.

 

2.           Cashless Exercise.

 

(a)         Payment upon exercise may be made at the written option of the Holder either in (i) cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by delivery of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with Section (b) below or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common Stock specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, payment upon exercise may be made in the manner described in Section 2(b) below only with respect to Warrant Shares not included for unrestricted public resale in an effective registration statement on the date notice of exercise is given by the Holder.

 

(b)         If the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by delivery of a properly endorsed Subscription Form delivered to the Company by any means described in Section 13 hereof, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

 

X=Y (A-B)

          A

 

  Where    X=  the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder

 

  Y= the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)

 

  A= Fair Market Value

 

  B= Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
38
 

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction in the manner described above shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.

 

3.           Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.

 

3.1.        Fundamental Transaction.  If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company  effects any merger or  consolidation  of the Company with or into another entity, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,  (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, or spin-off) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Company, or (F) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental  Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event or (b) if the Company is acquired in (1) a transaction where the consideration paid to the holders of the Common Stock consists solely of cash, (2) a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the 1934 Act, or (3) a transaction involving a person or entity not traded on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market, cash equal to the Black-Scholes Value (as defined herein).  For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Purchase Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction.  To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration.  The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.1 and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.  “Black-Scholes Value” shall be determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg L.P. using (i) a price per share of Common Stock equal to the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (ii) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of the date of such request and (iii) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg L.P. determined as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction.

3.2.        Continuation of Terms.  Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3 hereof, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4 hereof.

 

3.3         Share Issuance.  Until the Expiration Date, if the Company shall issue any Common Stock, except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), prior to the complete exercise of this Warrant for a consideration less than the Purchase Price that would be in effect at the time of such issuance, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Purchase Price shall be reduced to such other lower price for then outstanding Warrants.  For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Company carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock or of any warrant to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Purchase Price upon the issuance of the of the above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option if such issuance is at a price lower than the Purchase Price in effect upon such issuance and again at any time upon any actual, permitted, optional, or allowed issuances of shares of Common Stock upon any actual, permitted, optional, or allowed exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the Purchase Price in effect upon any actual, permitted, optional, or allowed such issuance.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.0001 per share of Common Stock.  The reduction of the Purchase Price described in this Section 3.3 is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.  Upon any reduction of the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 3.3) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 3.3) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

 

4.           Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.  In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 4.  The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

40
 

 

5.           Certificate as to Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants or in the Purchase Price, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent (as defined herein) of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 10 hereof).  Holder will be entitled to the benefit of the adjustment regardless of the giving of such notice.  The timely giving of such notice to Holder is a material obligation of the Company.

 

6.           Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.   The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.  This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof, upon written request, to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company's Common Stock.

 

7.           Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.  Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”).  On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.

 

8.           Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

 

41
 

9.           Maximum Exercise.  The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on such date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Rule 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 4.99%.  The restriction described in this paragraph may be waived, in whole or in part, upon sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice from the Holder to the Company to increase such percentage.  The Holder may decide whether to convert the Note or exercise this Warrant to achieve an actual 4.99% or increase such ownership position as described above.

 

10.         Warrant Agent.  The Company may, by written notice to the Holder, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1 hereof, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8 hereof, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.

 

11.         Transfer on the Company's Books.  Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

 

12.         Reserved.

 

13.         Notices.  All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.  Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur.  The addresses for such communications shall be:  (i) if to the Company, to Wizard World, Inc., 1350 Avenue of the Americas, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10019, Attn: Gareb Shamus, with a copy by fax only to (which shall not constitute notice) Lucosky Brookman LLP, 33 Wood Avenue South, 6th Floor, Iselin, NJ 08830, Attn: Joseph M.
