On June 7, 2012, Viscount Systems, Inc. completed a sale of 1,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the A Shares), at a purchase price of $1,000 and a stated value of $1,000 per A Share, and for no additional consideration, an issuance of 12,285,012 share purchase warrants (the Warrants) of the Company for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire a common share of the Company at a price of $0.08 per share for a period of 5 years from the closing date. The Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. The A Shares are convertible, at the option of the holders, into 24,570,024 shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.0407 per share, subject to adjustment provisions. See Item 3.03 below for additional information on the A Shares.
In connection with the offering, the Company paid to a registered broker-dealer a cash commission of $100,000 and issued share purchase warrants (the Agent Warrants) to acquire 2,457,002 shares of common stock of the Company. Each Agent Warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.05 per share for a period of 5 years from the closing date. The warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis.
The securities were sold to institutional investors and a registered broker-dealer pursuant to the exemption from registration of Section 4(2) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
On June 5, 2012, Viscount Systems, Inc. filed a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the Certificate of Designation) creating 3,000 shares of preferred stock designated as Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. All shares of common stock are of junior rank to A Shares in regards to liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of the Company.
The Series A Shares are convertible, at the option of the holders, into shares of common stock of the Company, subject to adjustment provisions, at a conversion price determined in accordance with the Certificate of Designation. Conversion of the A Shares cannot result in a holder holding greater than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock of the Company unless notice of conversion is provided by the holder at least 61 days in advance of the conversion date.
In accordance with the Certificate of Designation, the A Shares will have certain rights, preferences and privileges, including the following:
- the holders of A Shares are entitled to vote as a class on certain
prescribed matters affecting the rights of the holders of A Shares. In
addition, the holders of A Shares are entitled to vote together with the
holders of shares of common stock subject to a voting restriction of 4.99% per
holder of all of the shares of common stock of the Company outstanding at such
time;
- the holders of A Shares are entitled to receive dividends payable in cash
and/or A Shares at a rate of 8% per A Share per annum on the stated value,
payable quarterly. The declaration of the dividends in A Shares is subject to
compliance with prescribed equity conditions and pricing provisions set forth
in the Certificate of Designation;
- the holders of A Shares are entitled to be paid 125% of the stated value
of the A Shares, plus all accrued, but unpaid dividends on A Shares, upon
liquidation or dissolution of the Company, including certain forms of mergers
and acquisitions, in priority to any payment to the holders of shares of
common stock; and
- the A Shares may be redeemed by the holders for 150% of their stated value, plus all accrued, but unpaid dividends on A Shares, on the occurrence of certain events.
The foregoing is a summary only and the complete rights, preferences and privileges of the A Shares are set forth in the Certificate of Designation.
