Exhibit 10.9


 



SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT


 


This SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of June 3, 2014, is by and among Drone Aviation Holding Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Parent”), Drone Aviation Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and the shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders” and each a “Shareholder”).  Each of the parties to this Agreement is individually referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”


 


BACKGROUND







The Company has 44,100,000 shares of common stock (the “Company Shares”) outstanding, all of which are held by the Shareholders.  The Shareholders have agreed to transfer the Company Shares in exchange for an aggregate of Forty Four Million One Hundred Thousand (44,100,000) newly issued shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Parent ( the “Parent Common Stock”), except that Shareholders who, as a result of receiving the Company Shares would hold in excess of 3% of the Parent’s issued and outstanding common stock on a post-Closing (as defined below) basis, may elect, in its sole discretion by checking the applicable box on the signature page hereto, to receive shares of the Parent’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, with such rights, preferences and designations as are set forth in the Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Parent Preferred Stock, and collectively with the Parent Common Stock, the “Parent Stock”).


 


The exchange of Company Shares for Parent Stock is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or such other tax free reorganization or restructuring provisions as may be available under the Code.


 


The Board of Directors of each of the Parent and the Company has determined that it is desirable to affect this plan of reorganization and share exchange.


 


On May 5, 2014, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “LTAS Share Exchange Agreement”) with Lighter Than Air Systems Corp (“LTAS”) and the sole shareholder of LTAS pursuant to which all of the outstanding capital of LTAS was transferred to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock, causing LTAS to become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  Under the LTAS Share Exchange Agreement, LTAS made representations and warranties to the Company which LTAS acknowledges that the Parent shall be entitled to rely upon as a third party beneficiary thereof as of the date such representations and warranties were made.


 


AGREEMENT







NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto intending to be legally bound hereby agree as follows:

Except as set forth in the Parent SEC Documents, the Parent has not received any written communication during the past two years from a Governmental Entity that alleges that the Parent is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law.

The Parent confirms that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf has provided any Shareholder or its respective agents or counsel with any information that the Parent believes constitutes material, non-public information except insofar as the existence and terms of the proposed transactions hereunder may constitute such information and except for information that will be disclosed by the Parent under a current report on Form 8-K filed after the Closing.  All disclosure provided to the Shareholders regarding the Parent, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, furnished by or on behalf of the Parent (including the Parent’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement) are true and correct and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Parent is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with the listing and maintenance requirements for continued listing of the Parent Common Stock on the trading market on which the shares of Parent Common Stock are currently listed or quoted.  The issuance and sale of the shares of Parent Stock under this Agreement does not contravene the rules and regulations of the trading market on which the Parent Common Stock is currently listed or quoted, and no approval of the stockholders of the Parent is required for the Parent to issue and deliver to the Shareholders the Parent Stock contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 4.21. Title to Properties.  The Parent has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses.  All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which the Parent has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens and except for Liens that, in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of the Parent to conduct business as currently conducted.  The Parent has complied in all material respects with the terms of all material leases to which it is a party and under which it is in occupancy, and all such leases are in full force and effect.


 


SECTION 4.22. Intellectual Property.  The Parent owns, or is validly licensed or otherwise has the right to use, all Intellectual Property Rights which are material to the conduct of the business of the Parent taken as a whole.

No claims are pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent, threatened that the Parent is infringing or otherwise adversely affecting the rights of any person with regard to any Intellectual Property Right.  To the knowledge of the Parent, no person is infringing the rights of the Parent with respect to any Intellectual Property Right.

SECTION 4.24 Issuance of the Parent Stock. The shares of Parent Stock are duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with this Agreement against delivery of the Company Shares by the Shareholders, Shareholders will receive good title to such shares of Parent Stock, and such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens, other than restrictions generally imposed by federal and state securities laws.

Each Shareholder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Shareholder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
