Preliminary Statement

 

WHEREAS, the Holder holds 95 shares of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Holder desire to exchange the Preferred Stock for shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an agreed upon value.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby agreed and acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

(a) Upon the following terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, the Holder agrees to deliver to the Company the Preferred Stock in exchange for 6,333,333 shares of the Common Stock (the “Securities”). In consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Preferred Stock shall be exchanged on a one for 66,666.66 basis into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Common Stock.

 

(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto and the closing under this Agreement (the “Closing”) took place simultaneously at the Company’s offices.

 

(c) At the Closing, the Holder shall deliver to the Company for cancellation the Preferred Stock, and the Company shall issue to the Holder certificates representing the Securities.

 

2.            Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Holder.  The Holder hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Company, and covenants for the benefit of the Company.

 

(a) The Holder is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware.

 

(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the Holder and is a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity and by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the Holder has full limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

 

(c) The Holder understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific provisions of federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Holder set forth herein for purposes of qualifying for exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state securities laws.

  

-1-

  

 

(d) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Holder and the consummation by the Holder of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Holder’s charter or organizational documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Holder is a party or by which the Holder’s properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Holder or by which any property or asset of the Holder are bound or affected, except, in each case, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect the Holder’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

(e) The Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, with sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters as to be capable of evaluating the risks and merits of the transaction contemplated hereby.

 

(f) The Holder is and will be acquiring the Securities for the Holder’s own account, for investment purposes, and not with a view to any resale or distribution in whole or in part, in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities laws; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Holder does not agree to hold the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition.

 

(g) The Holder understands that the Securities purchased hereunder are “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in the Securities Act and the rules thereunder, have not been registered under the Securities Act, and that none of the Securities can be sold or transferred unless they are first registered under the Securities Act and such state and other securities laws as may be applicable or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available (and then the Securities may be sold or transferred only in compliance with such exemption and all applicable state and other securities laws).

 

(h) The Holder has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage or investment banking fees, commissions, finders’ structuring fees, financial advisory fees or other similar fees in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(j) The Holder owns and holds, beneficially and of record, the entire right, title, and interest in and to the Preferred Stock free and clear of all rights and Encumbrances (as defined below) other than restrictions under the Securities Act and other applicable federal and state securities laws, the certificate of incorporation of the Company and the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series B-1 Preferred Stock of Glowpoint, Inc. (the “Certificate of Designations”).  The Holder has full power and authority to transfer and dispose of the Preferred Stock free and clear of any right or Encumbrance other than restrictions under the Securities Act and other applicable federal and state securities laws.  Other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, there is no outstanding vote, plan, pending proposal, or other right of any person to acquire all or any of the Preferred Stock.  “Encumbrances” shall mean any security or other property interest or right, claim, lien, pledge, option, charge, security interest, contingent or conditional sale, or other title claim or retention agreement, interest or other right or claim of third parties, whether perfected or not perfected, voluntarily incurred or arising by operation of law, and including any agreement (other than this Agreement) to grant or submit to any of the foregoing in the future.
