To the Stockholders of LiveDeal, Inc.:
This Notice and the accompanying Information Statement are being furnished to the stockholders of LiveDeal, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with action taken by the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company, approving, by written consent dated April 27, 2012, a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated April 3, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”), and the transactions contemplated thereby (collectively, the “Transaction”).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Isaac Capital Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ICG”), agreed to purchase for cash up to $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes (“Convertible Notes”) to be issued by the Company. The Company will use the proceeds of the Convertible Notes for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The terms of the Purchase Agreement and Convertible Notes also provide that, subject to certain conditions, (i) the Convertible Notes may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of either ICG or the Company, and (ii) upon any such conversion, ICG will be issued warrants to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock. The terms and conditions of such conversion features and warrant issuances, and certain other terms and conditions of the Transaction, are described in the attached Information Statement. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), certain aspects of the Transaction that are subject to stockholder approval will not take effect until the 20th calendar day after the attached Information Statement is delivered to all stockholders of the Company that did not execute the written consent described above.

INFORMATION STATEMENT
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND
YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY
GENERAL INFORMATION
This Information Statement is being furnished by the board of directors of LiveDeal, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“we,” “us,” “LiveDeal” or the “Company”), in connection with certain action taken by the written consent of holders of approximately 68.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and is being delivered to inform you of the corporate actions described herein before they take effect, in accordance with Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We are mailing this Information Statement to the Company’s stockholders on or about May , 2012.
Why am I receiving this Information Statement?
The purpose of this Information Statement is to notify our stockholders that, on April 27, 2012, as required by NASDAQ Listing Rules, the holders of 1,612,899 shares of Common Stock (representing approximately 68.8% of the 2,345,503 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such date) executed a written consent approving and authorizing a significant investment transaction involving the Company. This Information Statement contains information about that transaction, as well as the action that was taken by written consent.
What did the investment transaction involve? What were the material terms?
On April 3, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), the Company and Isaac Capital Group LLC (“ICG”) entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), a copy of which is attached to this Information Statement as Annex A, pursuant to which ICG agreed to purchase for cash up to $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes (“Convertible Notes”) to be issued by LiveDeal. An initial Convertible Note in the principal amount of $250,000 was issued to ICG on the Closing Date. Additional Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,750,000 may be issued to ICG from time to time by LiveDeal for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date upon notice to ICG, provided that each Convertible Note must be in a principal amount of at least $100,000. The Company will use the proceeds of the Convertible Notes for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Collectively, the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are sometimes referred to in this Information Statement as the “Transaction.”
The Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Notes, which are unsecured, provide that all amounts payable by LiveDeal to ICG under the Convertible Notes will be due and payable on April 3, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”), provided that LiveDeal has the option in its discretion to extend the Maturity Date by up to one (1) year if no Event of Default (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, and LiveDeal is in material compliance with its agreements and covenants under the Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Notes, as of the Maturity Date.
The Convertible Notes also provide for the following terms and conditions:
· | LiveDeal will pay an annual interest rate equal to 8% on the unpaid principal balance of each Convertible Note from its date of issuance. All interest will be payable on the Maturity Date or upon the conversion of the applicable Convertible Note, as described below. LiveDeal also has the option to prepay each Convertible Note, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty. |
· | Either LiveDeal or ICG may elect at any time to cause the immediate conversion of all or any portion of any Convertible Note (including all principal and accrued but unpaid interest relating thereto) into that number of shares of Common Stock, as is obtained by dividing the dollar amount of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest payable under the applicable Convertible Note by the applicable Conversion Price (the “Conversion Shares”). Subject to adjustment, the “Conversion Price” with respect to each Convertible Note will be an amount equal to 60% of the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Closing Date or (ii) the 10-day weighted average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 10 business days immediately preceding the date on which LiveDeal or ICG (as applicable) provides notice of conversion with respect to the applicable Convertible Note. |
· | The Convertible Notes provide that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all amounts payable to ICG will become immediately due and payable by LiveDeal, without any demand of or notice to LiveDeal. |
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, including affirmative and negative covenants of LiveDeal. Among other things, LiveDeal (i) is required to provide certain financial and other information to ICG from time to time, (ii) must maintain its corporate existence, business, assets, properties, insurance and records in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Purchase Agreement, (iii) with certain exceptions, must not incur or suffer to exist any liens or other encumbrances with respect to its property or assets, (iv) must not make certain loans or investments except in compliance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and (v) must not enter into certain types of transactions, including dispositions of LiveDeal’s assets or business.
The Purchase Agreement also defines certain Events of Default, including (among other things) (i) LiveDeal’s failure to make any payment required under the Convertible Notes when due (subject to a three-day cure period), (ii) LiveDeal’s failure to comply with its covenants and agreements under the Purchase Agreement, the Convertible Notes and other transaction documents and (iii) the occurrence of a change of control with respect to LiveDeal.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in connection with the conversion of any Convertible Note into Conversion Shares, LiveDeal will issue to ICG a warrant to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable number of Conversion Shares (subject to adjustment). Each such warrant will be exercisable for a period of five (5) years following the date of its issuance at an exercise price equal to a 20% premium to the Conversion Price of the applicable Convertible Note (subject to adjustment). The warrants provide that they may be exercised in whole or in part and also include a cashless exercise feature.
LiveDeal was not required to pay any due diligence, origination or other fees to ICG in connection with the transactions described above.
What corporate action has been taken with respect to the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction?
On March 30, 2012, the Company’s board of directors (i) approved and authorized the Company’s entry into the Purchase Agreement and consummation of the Transaction, (ii) recommended that the Company’s stockholders approve the Purchase Agreement and the Transactions in accordance with applicable NASDAQ Listing Rules, and (iii) expressly approved and authorized stockholder action by written consent in connection with such recommendation, as required by the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation.
On April 27, 2012, the holders of 1,612,899 shares of Common Stock (representing approximately 68.8% of the 2,345,503 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such date) executed a written consent approving and authorizing the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction. Pursuant to applicable law and NASDAQ Listing Rules, such written consent constituted all of the stockholder action required to approve the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction. As a result, no further action by any other stockholder is required to approve the Purchase Agreement or the Transaction, and we have not and will not be soliciting your approval of the Purchase Agreement or the Transaction. A copy of the Action by Written Consent is attached to this Information Statement as Annex B.
2 |
Why was stockholder approval required in connection with the Transaction?
We are subject to the NASDAQ Stock Market’s Listing Rules because our Common Stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d), shareholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving: (i) the sale, issuance or potential issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price less than the greater of book or market value which together with sales by officers, directors or substantial shareholders of the company equals 20% or more of common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance; or (ii) the sale, issuance or potential issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for less than the greater of book or market value of the stock.
As described above, the Transaction involves the potential issuance by the Company of up to $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. If all such Convertible Notes are issued by the Company and subsequently converted into Conversion Shares, and if the corresponding warrants issued by the Company upon such conversion(s) are exercised by ICG, the Transaction could result in the sale and issuance of Common Stock equal to 20% or more of the Common Stock outstanding before the Closing Date for less than the greater of book or market value of the Common Stock. Therefore, we sought the written consent of our stockholders holding at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock for the approval of the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction.
Pursuant to Rule 14c-2(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, certain aspects of the Transaction that are subject to stockholder approval (including, without limitation, ICG’s ability to convert the Convertible Notes into Conversion Shares and/or exercise any warrants to be issued in connection with such conversion(s)) will not take effect until the 20th calendar day after this Information Statement is delivered to all stockholders of the Company that did not provide their written consent in connection with the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction.
Can I dissent or exercise rights of appraisal?
Neither Nevada law nor LiveDeal’s Restated Articles of Incorporation or Amended and Restated Bylaws provide our stockholders with dissenters’ or appraisal rights in connection with the Company’s entry into the Purchase Agreement or consummation of the Transaction.
THE TRANSACTION
Overview
On the Closing Date, the Company and ICG entered into the Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, ICG agreed to purchase for cash up to $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. The Company will use the proceeds of the Convertible Notes for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Notes, which are unsecured, provide that all amounts payable by LiveDeal to ICG under the Convertible Notes will be due and payable on the Maturity Date, provided that LiveDeal has the option in its discretion to extend the Maturity Date by up to one (1) year if no Event of Default (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, and LiveDeal is in material compliance with its agreements and covenants under the Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Notes, as of the Maturity Date.
As described in more detail below, such Convertible Notes may be converted into shares of Common Stock at the election of either the Company or ICG for an amount equal to 60% of the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Closing Date or (ii) the 10-day weighted average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 10 business days immediately preceding the date on which LiveDeal or ICG (as applicable) provides notice of conversion with respect to the applicable Convertible Note.
3 |
In connection with any conversion(s) of Convertible Notes, LiveDeal will issue to ICG a warrant to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable number of Conversion Shares (subject to adjustment). Each such warrant will be exercisable for a period of five (5) years following the date of its issuance at an exercise price equal to a 20% premium to the Conversion Price of the applicable Convertible Note (subject to adjustment). The warrants provide that they may be exercised in whole or in part and also include a cashless exercise feature.
An initial Convertible Note in the principal amount of $250,000 was issued to ICG on the Closing Date. Additional Convertible Notes may be issued to ICG in the aggregate principal amount of $1,750,000 for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date; provided, however, that each Convertible Note must be in a principal amount of at least $100,000.

The Convertible Notes
An initial Convertible Note in the principal amount of $250,000 was issued to ICG on the Closing Date. Additional Convertible Notes may be issued to ICG in the aggregate principal amount of $1,750,000 for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date; provided, however, that each Convertible Note must be in a principal amount of at least $100,000. Set forth below is a summary of certain material terms of the Convertible Notes. For more information, refer to Exhibit A attached to the Purchase Agreement (Annex A to this Information Statement).
Maturity
The Convertible Notes are unsecured and, unless otherwise converted, mature on the one year anniversary of the date of each Convertible Note (the “Maturity Date”), at which time all of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest will be due and payable; provided, however, LiveDeal may, in its sole and absolute discretion, extend the Maturity Date by up to one (1) additional year in the event that no Event of Default has occurred and LiveDeal is in material compliance with its agreements and covenants pursuant to the Transaction Documents. No installments of principal or interest will be due prior to maturity absent an Event of Default.
Interest
Interest accrues on the Convertible Notes at a rate equal to 8% per annum, which shall be payable upon the Maturity Date unless otherwise converted.
Prepayment
LiveDeal may prepay the principal of the Convertible Notes, together with accrued but unpaid interest, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty.
Subordination
The Convertible Notes shall be subordinated and subject in right to the prior payment in full of all outstanding obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
8 |
Conversion
Either LiveDeal or ICG may convert any portion of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest on such Convertible Note into that number of shares of Common Stock, calculated by dividing the dollar amount of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest payable under the applicable Convertible Note by the applicable Conversion Price (the “Conversion Shares”). Subject to adjustment, the “Conversion Price” with respect to each Convertible Note will be an amount equal to 60% of the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Closing Date or (ii) the 10-day weighted average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 10 business days immediately preceding the date on which LiveDeal or ICG (as applicable) provides notice of conversion with respect to the applicable Convertible Note.
Events of Default
The occurrence of any Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement shall constitute an “Event of Default” under each Convertible Note. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, ICG may exercise all rights and remedies available to it under any or all of the Transaction Documents, including accelerating the entire outstanding balance of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest.
Guaranty
The obligations of LiveDeal under the Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Guarantors.
The Warrants
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in connection with the conversion of any Convertible Note into Conversion Shares, LiveDeal will issue to ICG a warrant to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable number of Conversion Shares (subject to adjustment). Each such warrant will be exercisable for a period of five (5) years following the date of its issuance at an exercise price equal to a 20% premium to the Conversion Price of the applicable Note (subject to adjustment). The warrants provide that they may be exercised in whole or in part and also include a cashless exercise feature. For more information, refer to Exhibit C attached to the Purchase Agreement (Annex A to this Information Statement).
Effects of the Transaction
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, we may issue in the future a substantial number of shares of Common Stock, resulting in the increase in the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Such issuances would dilute our existing stockholders. The extent of such dilution (if any) will depend on a number of factors, including (without limitation) (i) the actual principal amount of Convertible Notes actually issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii) the extent to which such Convertible Notes are converted into Conversion Shares (and the Conversion Price at which such conversions, if any, occur), and (iii) the extent to which any warrants issued to ICG in connection with such conversions (if any) are ultimately exercised for shares of Common Stock.
Assuming for illustrative purposes only that (i) all $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes are actually issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii) all such Convertible Notes (without taking into account any accrued interest) are converted into Conversion Shares at a Conversion Price based on the $4.12 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Closing Date, and (iii) all warrants issued to ICG in connection with such conversions are exercised, approximately 1,619,433 shares of common stock (or 39.0%) would be issued to ICG as a result of such transactions in exchange for aggregate cash proceeds of $4,400,000 (less any interest paid under the terms of the Convertible Notes). After giving effect to such issuances, ICG would hold a total of 2,022,658 shares (or 48.7%) of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, representing a total investment of $4,900,000 including the $500,000 in cash that ICG paid for the 403,225 shares of common stock that it purchased in December 2011.
INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS
Jon Isaac, who is the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer in addition to being a member of our board of directors, is also the managing member and principal owner of ICG. As such, Mr. Isaac has a significant financial interest in the Transaction. Tony Isaac, who is related to Jon Isaac, is also a director of the Company. As of April 27, 2012, ICG also held 403,225 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 17.2% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock as of such date. To the extent that a significant number of shares of Common Stock are issued to ICG in the future pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes and/or warrants, ICG’s proportionate ownership of the Company could increase, giving ICG and the Isaacs additional influence with respect to the business strategy and day-to-day operations of the Company.
All material facts with respect to the Isaacs and their interests in the Transaction have been disclosed or are known to the Company’s board of directors, and the disinterested members of the board of directors approved the Transaction following such disclosure.

PAYMENT
1.1 Maturity Date. The Principal and any other amounts payable to Purchaser hereunder, shall be due and payable to Purchaser on April 3, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”); provided, however, that the Company shall have the option in its discretion to extend the Maturity Date by up to one (1) year in the event that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Company is in material compliance with its agreements and covenants hereunder and under the Note Purchase Agreement, as of the Maturity Date.
1.2 Interest. Interest will accrue from the date hereof on the Principal amount at the rate of 8% per annum until all Obligations under this Note are paid in full or until the conversion of the Principal pursuant to Article 2 of this Note. If the Principal is not converted pursuant to Article 2 of this Note, interest shall be paid with the Principal amount and all other Obligations on the Maturity Date. If the Principal is converted pursuant to Article 2 of this Note, interest accrued through the date of conversion and all other Obligations shall be paid on the date of conversion in accordance with Article 2 of this Note.

CONVERSION
2.1 Right to Convert into Common Stock; Conversion Price. Subject to Section 2.5, so long as any Principal due under this Note is outstanding, pursuant to Section 2.2 below, Purchaser may elect to convert, or the Company may cause the immediate conversion of, all or any portion of the Principal and accrued but unpaid interest into that number of shares of the common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) as is obtained by dividing the dollar amount of the Principal and accrued but unpaid interest by the applicable Conversion Price per share of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”). Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.3 hereof, the “Conversion Price” shall be an amount equal to 60% of the lesser of (i) the closing bid price on the First Closing Date or (ii) the 10-day volume weighted average closing bid price for the Company’s common stock, in each case as listed on NASDAQ for the 10 business days immediately preceding the date of the notice of conversion.
2.2 Mechanics of Conversion.
(a) Unless earlier converted at the election of the Company pursuant to clause (b) below, Purchaser may cause the conversion of this Note by delivering to the Company an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”).
(b) The Company may cause the conversion of this Note by delivering to Purchaser a Notice of Conversion.
(c) After delivery of the Notice of Conversion, the Company and Purchaser shall agree to a date for such conversion which, in no event, shall be later than three (3) business days following the date of the Notice of Conversion (the “Conversion Date”). On or before the Conversion Date, Purchaser shall surrender the Note for conversion and the Company shall denote in its corporate records the ownership by Purchaser of the Conversion Shares, effective as of close of business on the Conversion Date. Effective as of close of business on the Conversion Date (i) the rights of Purchaser with respect to the Principal, together with all other amounts due hereunder to Purchaser shall cease, (ii) Purchaser shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder of such Conversion Shares, and (iii) such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price then in effect. The issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to Purchaser for any tax in respect of such issuance, and such Conversion Shares shall be issued in such names as may be directed by Purchaser.
A-3 |
(d) In the event of a partial conversion of this Note, all of the applicable provisions hereof shall apply in respect of the portion of this Note that is converted into Conversion Shares, and this Note shall be restated to reflect the amount that remains due and payable hereunder, which shall be subject to subsequent conversion in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
2.3 Adjustment of Conversion Price. Subject to Section 2.4 hereof, the Conversion Price and number and kind of Conversion Shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:
(a) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If Company at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other corporation or other entity, this Note shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive 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 2.3 shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.
(b) Reclassification. If Company 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 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 Company shall issue or agree to issue any shares of Common Stock, including restricted stock, restricted stock units, or stock appreciation rights, for a consideration (or deemed price) less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price. For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security carrying the right to convert or exchange such security into shares of 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 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.
A-4 |
2.4 Adjustment Notices. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as provided in Section 2.3, Company shall promptly deliver to Purchaser written notice setting forth the revised Conversion Price with a statement of facts regarding the adjustment and the computation thereof.
2.5 Limitation on Conversion Pending Stockholder Approval. This Note shall not be convertible into shares of Common Stock by Purchaser, in whole or in part, unless and until the conditions specified in Section 12.12 of the Note Purchase Agreement (relating to, among other things, stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement) have been satisfied in full.

LiveDeal, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received, Isaac Capital Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or its registered assign (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from the Company [_____]2 shares (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 11) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) (each such share, a “Warrant Share” and all such shares, the “Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price determined pursuant to Section 3 (the “Exercise Price”), at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof through and including the date that is five (5) years following the date of issuance set forth above (the “Expiration Date”), and subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Purchase Agreement. This Warrant is one of a series of Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) issued by the Company in connection with that certain Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, entered into as of April 3, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and the purchasers identified on the signature pages thereto, and is subject to, and the Company and the Holder shall be bound by, all the applicable terms, conditions and provisions of the Purchase Agreement. This Warrant is being issued in connection with the conversion into shares of Common Stock of one of the Notes purchased under the Purchase Agreement.
2. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
1 Note to Draft: Warrant to be issued as of the date of conversion of the applicable Senior Subordinated Convertible Note.
2 Note to Draft: Number of Warrant Shares to be equal to number of shares of Common Stock into which the applicable Senior Subordinated Convertible Note was converted.
C-2 |
3. Exercise Price. This Warrant may be exercised for a price per Warrant Share equal to $[_____]3, subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to Section 11.
4. Registration of Warrant. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
5. Registration of Transfers. Subject to the Holder’s appropriate compliance with the restrictive legend on this Warrant, the Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment substantially in the form attached hereto as Attachment B duly completed and signed, to the Company at its address specified herein. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new Warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new Warrant, a “New Warrant”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.
6. Exercise and Duration of Warrants. This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration Date. At 6:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value. The Company may not call or redeem all or any portion of this Warrant without the prior written consent of the Holder.
7. Delivery of Warrant Shares.
(a) To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant unless the aggregate number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant is being exercised. Upon delivery of an Exercise Notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Attachment A (an “Exercise Notice”) to the Company at its address for notice determined as set forth herein, and upon payment of the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) trading days after the Date of Exercise (as defined below)) issue and deliver, or cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver, to the Holder a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise registered in the name of the Holder or its designee. A “Date of Exercise” means the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) an Exercise Notice, appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) unless the Holder has elected a cashless exercise, payment of the Exercise Price (by certified or official bank check, intra-bank account transfer or wire transfer) for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.
3 Note to Draft: Exercise Price to be equal to the Conversion Price under the applicable Senior Subordinated Convertible Note plus 20%.
C-3 |
(b) If by the fifth trading day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 7(a), the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
(c) The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
8. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of certificated or uncertificated shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee, or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
9. Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a new Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a new warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a new warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver this mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the new warrant.
10. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from Liens or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 11). The Company covenants and warrants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable.
C-4 |
11. Certain Adjustments. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 11.
(a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of any Warrants), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company; then in each such case (A) the Exercise Price will be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event (excluding treasury shares, if any), and the denominator of which equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and (B) the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be concurrently adjusted by multiplying such number by the reciprocal of such fraction. Such adjustments will take effect (i) if a record date shall have been fixed for determining the stockholders or security holders, as applicable, of the Company entitled to receive such dividend, distribution or issuance by reclassification, as the case may be, immediately after such record date, (ii) otherwise, immediately after the effective date of such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination, or issuance by reclassification, as the case may be.
(b) Subsequent Equity Sales. If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to re-price, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or any other disposition or issuance of) any Common Stock or securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock (“Common Stock Equivalents”), except for issuances contemplated by Section 11(a) and Exempt Issuances (as defined in Section 11(f)(i)), at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued or issuable shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued or issuable in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price), then simultaneously with the consummation of each Dilutive Issuance (i) the Exercise Price then in effect will be reduced (and in no event increased) by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued or issuable if the Base Share Price for such Dilutive Issuance equaled such VWAP (assuming the aggregate consideration received or receivable by the Company would remain the same), and the denominator of which equals the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or issuable in connection with such Dilutive Issuance, and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be concurrently increased (and in no event decreased) by multiplying such number by the reciprocal of such fraction. Such adjustments shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, no later than the trading day following the issuance or deemed issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 11(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms, and describing the material terms of the option, right, Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents sold, granted, disposed of or issued (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 11(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Exercise Price as the Exercise Price should have been adjusted pursuant to the operation of this Section 11(b) had the Company provided a Dilutive Issuance Notice, regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Exercise Notice. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in Section 11(f)(ii)), the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised.
C-5 |
(c) Subsequent Rights Offerings. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder on an as-fully-exercised basis) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the VWAP on the record date mentioned below, then, unless adjustment is required pursuant to Section 11(b), (i) the Exercise Price then in effect will be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (assuming receipt by the Company in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP, and the denominator of which equals the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be concurrently adjusted by multiplying such number by the reciprocal of such fraction. Such adjustments shall be made whenever such rights, options or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants or, if no such record date shall have been fixed, immediately after the effective date of such issuance.
(d) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder on an as-fully-exercised basis) evidences of its indebtedness, assets (including cash and cash dividends), rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than shares of Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 11(b)) or Section 11(c), as applicable), then in each such case the Exercise Price then in effect will be adjusted effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value of the portion of such evidence of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock, as determined by the Board in good faith, and the denominator of which equals the VWAP determined as of such record date. In each such case the Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, no later than the trading day following the distribution of any such evidence of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants, describing the material terms of such evidence of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants and the adjustments made pursuant to this Section 11(d).
C-6 |
(e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or a series of related transactions, (A) effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets, (C) effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization 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 (except for issuances by reclassification contemplated by Section 11(a)(iv)), or (D) consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or group making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination), or (ii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person or group of Persons) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property (each transaction or series of transactions referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, 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, (1) the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or, if it is the surviving corporation, of the Company, and (2) any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount and components of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Board shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration (substituting the most appropriate market-based measure for the Trading Market in determining the daily VWAP from time to time for each component of the Alternate Consideration or, if no market-based measure is reasonably available for any such component, fixing the daily VWAP of such component at the value determined by such apportionment, but subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 11). 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 of like tenor to this Warrant but adjusted to be consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant for the appropriate number of shares of capital stock and Alternate Consideration, if any, in exchange for this Warrant. The Company shall ensure that the terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 11(e) and ensuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction or series of related transactions analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
C-7 |
(f) Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, for all purposes of this Warrant, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated in this Section 11(a):
(i) “Exempt Issuance” means (A) shares of Common Stock or options to purchase Common Stock to directors, officers, employees or consultants (other than attorneys, law firms, accountants or accounting firms) of the Company in their capacity as such pursuant to an any employee benefit plan which has been approved by the Board prior to or subsequent to the date hereof (an “Approved Share Plan”), provided that the exercise price of any such options is not lowered, none of such options is amended to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder, and none of the terms or conditions of any such options is otherwise materially changed in any manner that adversely affects the Holder (the “Approved Share Plan Options”), (B) shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents (other than Approved Share Plan Options) issued and outstanding prior to the date hereof, provided that the conversion or exercise price of any such Common Stock Equivalents (other than Approved Share Plan Options) is not lowered, none of such Common Stock Equivalents (other than Approved Share Plan Options) is amended to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder, and none of the terms or conditions of any such Common Stock Equivalents (other than Approved Share Plan Options) is otherwise materially changed in any manner that adversely affects the Holder, or (C) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company, and the acquisition or strategic transaction provides to the Company 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.
(ii) “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (A) 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 Stock either (1) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (2) other than with respect to customary anti-dilution provisions, 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 any specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or any market for the Common Stock, or (B) enters into any agreement, including an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may sell securities at a future determined price.
C-8 |
(iii) “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (A) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the principal trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (B) if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by Pink OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported during trading hours, or (C) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors and reasonably acceptable to the Holder, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
(g) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 11 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding at any given time for purposes of this Section 11 shall not include any shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any Subsidiary, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
(h) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 11, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other Alternate Consideration issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments in all material respects and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.
(i) Notice of Corporate Events. If (A) the Company declares a dividend (or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in whatever form) on the Common Stock, including any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary or of any rights, (B) the Company declares a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company authorizes the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall deliver to the Holder, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, or redemption, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, or redemption are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
C-9 |
(j) Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:
(i) Cash Exercise. The Holder may pay by certified or official bank check, by intra-bank account transfer or by wire transfer of same-day funds.
(ii) Cashless Exercise. The Holder may elect instead to utilize a cashless exercise method, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
X = | Y × ((A – B ) / A) | ||
where: | |||
X = | the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder. | ||
Y = | the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised. | ||
A = | the closing price of shares of Common Stock for the trading day immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date. | ||
B = | the Exercise Price. |
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction 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.
12. Limitation on Exercise Pending Stockholder Approval. This Warrant shall not be exercisable by the Holder, in whole or in part, unless and until the conditions specified in Section 12.12 of the Purchase Agreement (relating to, among other things, stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) have been satisfied in full.
C-10 |
13. No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay the Holder an amount of cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one share of Common Stock as reported on the principal trading market for the Common Stock on the Date of Exercise.
14. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number pursuant to this Section 14 prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a trading day, (ii) the next trading day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified pursuant to this Section 14 on a day that is not a trading day or later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any trading day, (iii) the trading day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service to the street address specified pursuant to this Section 14, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.

C-11 |
16. Miscellaneous.
(a) Assignment. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described herein, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.

(b) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant.
(c) Amendments; Waiver. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder, and any amendment so effected shall amend each Warrant issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and be binding upon each holder of such Warrants (provided, however, that any such amendment that adversely affects any holder or class of holders of such Warrants in a manner that does not apply uniformly to all holders of such Warrants, as applicable, shall require the written consent of such adversely affected holders or class). Any provision of this Warrant may be waived, but only if in writing by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Warrant shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
(d) Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
(e) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Warrant are held to be unenforceable under applicable law in any respect, such provision shall be excluded from this Warrant and the balance of this Warrant shall be construed and interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its remaining terms.

ANNEX B
ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT
OF THE STOCKHOLDERS OF LIVEDEAL, INC.
Pursuant to Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, Article 6 of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) of LiveDeal, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Section 2.5 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) of the Company, the undersigned stockholders, who collectively hold a majority of the voting power of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock, hereby consent to the adoption of, and hereby adopt, the following resolutions and declare them to be in full force and effect as if adopted at a special meeting of the stockholders duly held in accordance with the Bylaws:
Background
WHEREAS, on April 3, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), the Company and Isaac Capital Group LLC (“ICG”) entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which ICG agreed to purchase for cash up to $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (“Convertible Notes”) to be issued by the Company;
WHEREAS, an initial Convertible Note in the principal amount of $250,000 was issued to ICG on the Closing Date, and additional Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,750,000 may be issued to ICG from time to time by the Company for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date upon notice to ICG, provided that each Convertible Note must be in a principal amount of at least $100,000;
WHEREAS, either the Company or ICG may elect at any time to cause the immediate conversion of all or any portion of any Convertible Note (including all principal and accrued but unpaid interest relating thereto) into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), as is obtained by dividing the dollar amount of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest payable under the applicable Convertible Note by the applicable Conversion Price (the “Conversion Shares”), and subject to adjustment, the “Conversion Price” with respect to each Convertible Note will be an amount equal to 60% of the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Closing Date or (ii) the 10-day weighted average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the 10 business days immediately preceding the date on which the Company or ICG (as applicable) provides notice of conversion with respect to the applicable Convertible Note;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in connection with the conversion of any Convertible Note into Conversion Shares, the Company will issue to ICG a warrant in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (“Warrant”) to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable number of Conversion Shares (subject to adjustment) (the “Warrant Shares”), with each such Warrant to (i) be exercisable for a period of five (5) years following the date of its issuance at an exercise price equal to a 20% premium to the Conversion Price of the applicable Convertible Note (subject to adjustment) and (ii) provide that it may be exercised in whole or in part and also include a cashless exercise feature;
WHEREAS, in light of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares that may be issued to ICG upon the conversion of any Convertible Note(s) and/or exercise of any Warrant(s), stockholder approval of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is required under applicable NASDAQ Listing Rules;
WHEREAS, Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that, unless otherwise provided in the Articles or the Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, except that if a different proportion of voting power is required for such an action at a meeting, then that proportion of written consents is required;

WHEREAS, Article 6 of the Articles provides that no action that is required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be effected by written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting of stockholders, unless the action to be effected by written consent of stockholders and the taking of such action by such written consent have expressly been approved in advance by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”);
WHEREAS, Section 2.5(a) of the Bylaws provides that, subject to restrictions imposed by the Articles or by applicable law, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Company’s Secretary;
WHEREAS, at a meeting of the Board duly held on March 30, 2012, the Board (i) approved and authorized the Company’s entry into the Purchase Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) recommended that the Company’s stockholders approve the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby in accordance with applicable NASDAQ Listing Rules, and (iii) expressly approved and authorized stockholder action by written consent in connection with such recommendation, as required by the Articles; and
WHEREAS, the undersigned stockholders, after having considered the Board’s recommendation and carefully reviewed and considered the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Convertible Notes, the Warrants and the other agreements and documents contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, have determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to approve the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

RESOLVED FURTHER, that a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock are hereby reserved for issuance in respect of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.
