______________________________________________


 


 


This Subscription Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the date set forth on the bottom of the signature page hereof between Global Telecom & Technology, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), and the undersigned (the “Investor”).







 


Background:


 


The Company is offering to the Investor the opportunity to invest in Units offered by the Company (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of $5,000 in principal amount of the Company’s subordinated promissory notes that mature on December 31, 2013 (the “Notes”) and 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”).  The Notes will be unsecured and will rank pari passu in right of payment and security to the Company’s currently outstanding notes due February 8, 2012 and the Company’s currently outstanding notes due December 31, 2013.


 


The Units are offered in whole Unit increments at a purchase price of $10,000 per Unit.  The Company’s offer of the Units, including the Notes and the Common Stock included in each Unit, is being made only to persons who are “accredited investors” (as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and will be limited to $1,000,000 in aggregate amount (1,000 Units).  The offering of the Units will expire on February 28, 2011, and may be terminated earlier by the Company in its sole discretion.  The decision of whether to accept any subscription will be made by the Company in its sole discretion.


 




  





  











  






The proceeds to the Company will be used for general working capital purposes.


 


There is no minimum amount to be raised in this offering.


 


Agreement:


 


1   Subscription.  By execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes to purchase the number of Units set forth on the signature page of this Agreement.  The Investor understands and agrees that this subscription is irrevocable by the Investor until February 28, 2011.  Subscriptions must be for whole Units.


 


2   Closing; Deliveries.  A closing with respect to the purchase and sale of the Units (the “Closing”) shall take place on a date designated by the Company in a notice delivered to the Investor not less than two (2) business days prior to the Closing, which notice shall state the time and place of the Closing and the number of Units for which the Investor's subscription has been accepted by the Company.  For each Unit subscribed for and accepted by the Company, at the Closing, the Investor will deliver to the Company, in cash, the subscription amount for which this subscription has been accepted by the Company.  The subscription amount is the number of Units to be acquired multiplied by $10,000.  Subject to receipt of such payment, at the Closing the Company will deliver to the Investor (or will forward to the Investor if the Investor is not present at the Closing) a Note for the principal amount of Notes to be issued and sold to the Investor at the Closing and promptly after the Closing will deliver a certificate for the Common Stock to be issued and sold to the Investor at the Closing, duly registered in the Investor’s name.  The Company intends to hold a single Closing with respect to the offer and sale of the Units.


 


3   Acceptance or Rejection of Subscriptions.  The Investor agrees that the Investor’s subscription for Units is made subject to the following terms and conditions:


 


  3.1   Acceptance.   This Agreement is not binding upon the Company until the Company accepts it, which acceptance is at the sole discretion of the Company and will be evidenced by the Company’s execution of this Agreement.  The Company may reject this subscription in whole or in part, in its sole discretion, at any time prior to acceptance but only in increments of whole Units.


 


  3.2   Delivery upon Acceptance.  Upon acceptance by the Company of this subscription, in whole or in part, the Company will deliver to the Investor a fully executed copy of this Agreement.


 


  3.3   Delivery upon Rejection.  If this subscription is rejected by the Company, in whole or in part, for any reason, the Company will promptly return (subject to delay as necessary to permit funds deposited to clear) to the Investor all funds, if any, paid by the Investor for Units subscribed for but not accepted by the Company, without deduction and without interest.  If this subscription is rejected by the Company in full, rather than in part, this Agreement shall thereafter have no force or effect.


 


  3.4   Purchase Price; Payment.  At or before the Closing, the Investor will pay to the Company the subscription amount for which this subscription has been accepted by the Company.  The subscription amount is the number of Units to be acquired multiplied by $10,000.  Subscription payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company.


 


4   Representations by the Investor.  In consideration of the Company's acceptance of the Investor’s subscription and recognizing the Company’s reliance thereon, the Investor represents and warrants to the Company that:

  4.2   Investment Intent.  The Investor will acquire the Units for the Investor’s own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, and no other person or entity will have a direct beneficial interest in the Units.  The Investor will acquire the Units (and the Notes and Common Stock included therein) for investment and not with a view to, or for, the sale or distribution thereof or the granting of any participation therein, and the Investor has no present intention of distributing or selling to others any of such Units (or the Notes and Common Stock included therein) or granting any participation therein.


 


  4.3   Restrictions on Transfer.  The Investor is aware of the limited provisions for transferability of the Units.

The Investor has evaluated the risks of investing in the Units, understands there are substantial risks of loss incidental to the purchase of the Units, and has determined that the Units are a suitable investment for the Investor.  The Investor’s investment in the Units is consistent with the investment purposes, objectives and cash flow requirements of the Investor and will not adversely affect the Investor’s overall need for diversification and liquidity.  The Investor has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of this investment, including a total loss of this investment, and has no need for liquidity with respect to this investment.


 


  4.6   Receipt and Review of Company Materials.  The Investor acknowledges that no offering documents have been prepared by the Company in connection with this offering of the Units.  The Investor has received, carefully read and understands this Agreement, including the risk factors described on Attachment B, and the form of Note previously provided to the Investor.  In addition, the Investor has been provided an opportunity to obtain any additional information reasonably requested by the Investor concerning the offering, the Company, the Units and all other information reasonably requested to the extent the Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, and the Investor has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and other matters pertaining to this investment.


 


  4.7   Independent Review.  In making the decision to purchase the Units, the Investor has relied solely upon the Investor’s own independent investigations and the advice of the Investor’s attorney, accountant, tax and other business advisors to the extent the Investor deems necessary or appropriate.  The Investor is not relying on the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees, stockholders, affiliates, advisors, representatives or any other person or entity with respect to the legal, tax and other economic considerations involved in this investment.  No representations or warranties have been made to the Investor by the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors or representatives, and in subscribing for the Units, other than those set forth in this Agreement, and the Investor is not relying upon any such representations or warranties.

RISK FACTORS


 


Investing in the Units involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission before deciding whether to invest in the Units.   Although we believe that the risks and uncertainties described below and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission are the most important ones for you to consider before making an investment decision with respect to the Units, they are not the only risks or uncertainties facing our business or which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.  If any of the following risks or uncertainties or those included our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission were to materialize, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.  Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that may not currently be deemed material could also adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the value of the Units.


 


Our substantial level of indebtedness and debt service obligations could impair our financial condition, hinder our growth and put us at a competitive disadvantage.


 


As of September 30, 2010 our indebtedness was substantial in comparison to our available cash and our net income. Our substantial level of indebtedness could have important consequences for our business, results of operations and financial condition.  For example, a high level of indebtedness could, among other things:


 



	 	●	
make it more difficult for us to satisfy our financial obligations;







 



	 	●	
increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including interest rate fluctuations;







 



	 	●	
increase the risk that a substantial decrease in cash flows from operating activities or an increase in expenses will make it difficult for us to meet our debt service requirements and will require us to modify our operations;







 



	 	●	
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund future business opportunities, working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes;







 



	 	●	
limit our ability to borrow additional funds to expand our business or ease liquidity constraints;







 



	 	●	
limit our ability to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity;







 



	 	●	
limit our ability to pursue future acquisitions;







 



	 	●	
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and







 



	 	●	
place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to competitors that have less indebtedness.







 


Our failure to comply with covenants in our Loan Agreement could result in our indebtedness being immediately due and payable and the loss of our assets.


 


Pursuant to the terms of our Loan Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Loan Agreement”) we have pledged substantially all of our assets to the lender as security for our payment 


 




  





B-1











  






obligations under the Loan Agreement.  If we fail to pay any of our indebtedness under the Loan Agreement when due, or if we breach any of the other covenants in the Loan Agreement, including certain financial tests and ratios, it may result in one or more events of default.  An event of default under the Loan Agreement would permit the lender to declare all amounts owing to be immediately due and payable and, if we were unable to repay any indebtedness owed, the lender could proceed against the collateral securing that indebtedness.


 


Covenants in the Loan Agreement and our outstanding notes, and in any future debt agreements, may restrict our future operations.


 


The Loan Agreement and our existing notes impose financial restrictions that limit our discretion on some business matters, which could make it more difficult for us to expand our business, finance our operations and engage in other business activities that may be in our interest.  These restrictions include compliance with, or maintenance of, certain financial tests and ratios and restrictions that limit our ability and that of our subsidiaries to, among other things:


 



	 	
●

	
incur additional indebtedness or place additional liens on our assets;







 



	 	
●

	
pay dividends or make other distributions on, redeem or repurchase our capital stock;







 



	 	●	
make investments or repay subordinated indebtedness;







 



	 	
●

	
enter into transactions with affiliates;







 



	 	●	
sell assets;







 



	 	●	
engage in a merger, consolidation or other business combination; or







 



	 	●	
change the nature of our businesses.







 


Any additional indebtedness we may incur in the future may subject us to similar or even more restrictive conditions.


 


Despite our substantial level of indebtedness, we may incur a significant amount of additional indebtedness in the future, including secured indebtedness, which could exacerbate any or all of the risks described above.


 


We may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, some or all of which may be senior to the Notes.  Although the Notes, the Loan Agreement and our other senior debt limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions and, under certain circumstances, the amount of additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial.  The Notes, the Loan Agreement and other senior debt do not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute indebtedness.  To the extent that we incur additional indebtedness or such other obligations, the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness described above, including the possibility that we may be unable to service our existing debt obligations, would increase.


 


We may not be able to repay our indebtedness if we do not generate sufficient cash from our operations or future financings.


 


Our ability to make payments on or refinance our indebtedness, including, with respect to the Notes, our indebtedness that will mature before the Notes, will depend on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from our operations and/or our ability to raise additional capital.  Our payment obligations could arise in the context of (1) scheduled interest and maturity payments, (2) an acceleration of such indebtedness due to an event of default or (3) a mandatory prepayment following a change of control, asset sale or, in the case of the Loan Agreement, certain other events.  We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy our payment obligations as they arise under such 


 




  





B-2











  






indebtedness and to also meet our other cash needs.  If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring our indebtedness or obtaining additional capital on terms that may be burdensome to us.  Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the condition of the capital and credit markets and our financial condition at such time and could be limited by the restrictive covenants in our existing debt agreements.  As a result, we may not be able to sell our assets or raise additional debt or equity capital, which could cause us to default on our debt obligations.  In the event of any default, the holders of our indebtedness could elect to declare all the funds borrowed to be immediately due and payable and foreclose against our assets securing their borrowings, and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.


 


The Notes may be issued with original issue discount, which could have an impact on the investors and the Company.


 


The Unit purchase price of $10,000 per Unit will be allocated between the Notes and the Common Stock included in each Unit based as follows: first, an amount equal to the 30 day trailing average closing stock price will be allocated to the Common Stock, and then the remainder will be allocated to the Notes.  If the amount allocated to the Notes is less than the face amount thereof, the difference between the face amount and the amount allocated to the Notes may be deemed to original issue discount, or OID, within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), resulting in Investors realizing ordinary income to the extent of such OID.  In the event the Notes are issued with OID, for U.S. federal income tax purposes a U.S. holder will be required to accrue OID as interest on the Notes.  Such OID generally will be includable in the gross income of the U.S. holder as it accrues, without regard to the receipt of cash payments on the Notes to which the OID is attributable, and regardless of the U.S. holder’s regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.


 


In the event the Notes constitute “applicable high yield discount obligations” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, our interest deductions with respect to OID relating to the Notes will be deferred until paid in cash, and a portion of the OID will be disallowed (and not merely deferred) if the yield to maturity on the Notes exceeds six percentage points over the “applicable federal rate” (as determined under Section 1274(d) of the Code in effect for the calendar month in which the Notes are issued).  The potential deferral and disallowance of deductions for OID on the Notes may reduce the amount of cash available to us to meet our obligations under the Notes.


 


The Notes are effectively subordinated to our secured debt and any liabilities of our subsidiaries.


 


The Notes will rank junior in right of payment to: (1) all indebtedness under the Loan Agreement, including both the term loans and the amount of the revolving line of credit thereunder outstanding from time to time, (2) our existing capitalized leases and (3) any future indebtedness we may incur, except and to the extent we designate any of such future indebtedness as ranking parri passu or subordinate to the Notes.  The Notes will rank parri passu in right of payment with: (A) our promissory notes due February 2012 (provided, however, such notes will mature prior to the Notes and the payment of the principal amount of such notes at maturity may be made without any concurrent payment on the Notes), (B) our promissory notes due December 31, 2013 currently outstanding, (C) our trade payables outstanding from time to time and (D) and any future indebtedness we incur that is not designated as ranking parri passu with or junior to the Notes in right of payment.  The Notes will be structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities incurred by our subsidiaries.  In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up, our assets that secure debt ranking senior or equal in right of payment to the Notes will be available to pay obligations on the Notes only after the secured debt has been repaid in full from these assets.  There may not be sufficient assets remaining to pay amounts due on any or all of the Notes then outstanding. The terms of the Notes do not prohibit us from incurring additional senior debt or secured debt, nor do they prohibit any of our subsidiaries from incurring additional liabilities.


 




  





B-3











  






The Notes are obligations of Global Telecom & Technology, Inc. only, and our operations are conducted through, and a substantial portion of our consolidated assets are held by, our subsidiaries.


 


The Notes are obligations exclusively of Global Telephone & Technology, Inc. and are not guaranteed by any of our operating subsidiaries.  A substantial portion of our consolidated assets are held by our subsidiaries.  Accordingly, our ability to service our debt, including the Notes, depends on the results of operations of our subsidiaries and upon the ability of such subsidiaries to provide us with cash, whether in the form of dividends, loans or otherwise, to pay amounts due on our obligations, including the Notes.  Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to make payments on the Notes or to make any funds available for that purpose.  In addition, dividends, loans or other distributions to us from such subsidiaries may be subject to contractual and other restrictions and are subject to other business considerations. 


 


The Notes are protected by only limited restrictive covenants.


 


The Notes do not contain any financial covenants, and the Notes contain only limited operating covenants related to restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness, the issuance or repurchase of securities by us or any of our subsidiaries or a fundamental change involving Global Telecom & Technology, Inc.


 


We do not expect that an active trading market will develop for the Notes.


 


Prior to this offering, there has been no trading market for the Notes.  We do not intend to apply for listing of the Notes on any securities exchange or to arrange for quotation on any interdealer quotation system, and we do not expect a trading market for the Notes to develop.


 


There are restrictions on your ability to transfer or resell the Notes and Common Stock you purchase in this offering without registration under applicable securities laws.


 


The Notes and the Common Stock offered in this offering are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws.  Therefore, purchasers Notes and Common Stock in this offering may transfer or resell their Notes and Common Stock in the United States only in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws or pursuant to an effective registration statement.  Accordingly, purchasers in this offering will be required to bear the risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time.
