On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall make loans on a revolving basis (collectively, “Loans”) from time to time until three years from the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”) in such aggregate amounts as Borrower may request with the prior approval of the Board; provided that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans shall not at any time exceed US$5,000,000, less the aggregate investment, if any, made by Lender pursuant to the Warrant (as defined in Section 2.7).  (For the avoidance of doubt, it is intended that the maximum amount available to Borrower under this Agreement, the Warrant and the US$5,000,000 investment made under the Investment Agreement dated the date hereof among Lender, Borrower and  Dato Low Tuck Kwong will not exceed $10,000,000.)  Each Loan shall be in an integral multiple of $500,000.  Each Loan shall mature and be due and payable, together with accrued interest, three months from the date it is advanced, but not later than the Expiration Date.  So long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred, any Loan may be rolled over with another Loan, subject to prior receipt of a Borrowing Notice as provided in this Agreement.  The maturity of any Loan which would be payable on a day which is not a Business Day,  shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

 

2.2           Use of Loan Proceeds.  The proceeds of all Loans shall be used solely for (a) paying all unpaid principal aggregating $1,287,000 with respect to notes dated March 26, 2010, Series A through G (the “3/10 Notes”) originally issued to Iroquois Capital, LP and certain other Noteholders, plus accrued interest on the 3/10 Notes; and (c) working capital for Borrower, including the purchase of lumber or chemicals or for investment in fixed assets, including the establishment of coating or storage facilities.  The 3/10 Notes and accrued interest thereon shall be paid automatically and without further notice from the Company by means of a Loan advanced on the Effective Date, which Loan shall thereafter be subject to the terms of this Agreement.  Upon the Effective Date, the Lender shall mark the 3/10 Notes “paid” and return them to the Company.

 

2.3           Evidence of Loans.  The Loans shall be evidenced by a revolving promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A, with appropriate insertions, payable by Borrower to the order of Lender (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Note”).  The date and principal amount of each Loan and of each repayment of principal received by the Lender shall be recorded by the Lender on the Note and in its records, and the aggregate unpaid principal amount shown on such records shall be rebuttable, presumptive evidence of the principal owing and unpaid of all Loans.  The failure to record any such amount on the Note or on such 

 

 

  

-3-

  

 

 

records shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder to repay the principal amount of the Loans together with all interest accruing thereon.  The unpaid principal amount from time to time outstanding on the Loans shall bear interest and be payable as set forth herein.

 

2.4           Requests for Loans.  For each Loan requested hereunder, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Borrowing Notice in the form of Exhibit B (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such Loan, which shall be a Business Day.  Each such Borrowing Notice shall be effective upon receipt by Lender, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the date and amount of the Loan.  Each Borrowing Notice, shall be signed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower.

 

2.5           Voluntary Prepayments.  The Borrower may prepay without premium or penalty and in whole or in part the Loans at any time, such payment to be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment, provided that Borrower shall give Lender notice thereof not later than one Business Day before the date of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day).  All partial prepayments of the principal of the Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000.

 

2.6           Interest.  Borrower agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full at a rate per annum of 6% (the “Applicable Rate”).     Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears upon the maturity of each Loan.  After maturity, and at any time an Event of Default exists, accrued interest on all Loans shall be payable on demand.  Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days.  All payments of principal or interest on the Loans and other Liabilities, and of all fees, shall be made by Borrower to Lender in immediately available funds to the following account: Standard Chartered Bank, SWIFT Code: SCBLSGSG, Account No: 01-7-021308-0 or as Lender may otherwise direct.  Any payment not credited to the payment account by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any relevant day shall be deemed to have been received by Lender on the following Business Day.

 

2.7           Issue of Warrant.  In consideration of the credit facility provided under this Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to issue to  Lender a warrant to acquire fifty million (50,000,000) newly issued shares of the Borrower’s common stock (the “Warrant”) at U.S$0.10 per share, exercisable for five years from the date of issuance.  The form of the Warrant is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C.   Lender represents and warrants that it is acquiring  the Warrant for investment and not with a view to or for the sale in connection with any distribution thereof.    As provided in Section 2.1, the aggregate amount of Loans available will be reduced by the amount invested in the stock of the Borrower pursuant to the Warrant, so that the total of Loans, common stock investment made by Lender under the Warrant and under the Investment Agreement dated the date of this Agreement will not exceed $10,000,000

 

SECTION 3.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Litigation

EcoBlu Products Inc. v. BluWood USA and other defendants.     This action was commenced by EcoBlu as plaintiff in the San Diego County court.  EcoBlu has asserted multiple causes of action involving, inter alia, collusion and misrepresentations by defendants negatively affecting the supply relationship between EcoBlu and BluWood USA.  An arbitration between EcoBlu and Blu Wood on the supply agreement is presently pending, but subject to a motion to stay filed in the pending litigation between the parties.

Express Employment v. N8 Concepts. The Company is the defendant in a collection proceeding in Colorado brought by Express Employment against N8 Concepts, Inc. (the predecessor to EcoBlu Products, Inc.). This is related to alleged temporary labor provided to N8/EcoBlu that was not paid for. A default judgment against EcoBlu has not yet been entered, but is estimated at approximately $40,000.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

 

ECOBLU PRODUCTS, INC.

 

ECOBLU PRODUCTS, INC. (the “Issuer”), a Colorado corporation, for value received, hereby certifies that MANHATTAN RESOURCES LIMITED or its registered assign (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to purchase from the Issuer fifty million (50,000,000) shares of the Issuer’s fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock (subject to adjustment as provided below, the “Stock”), at the purchase price per share of $0.10 (subject to adjustment as provided below, the “Stock Purchase Price”) at any time or from time to time prior to the earlier of (i) 12:01 a.m., California time, on _______, 2016 (the “Termination Date”).   This Warrant shall terminate on the Termination Date unless exercised prior thereto.

 

This Warrant was issued on ____________,2011 pursuant to that certain Revolving Credit and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of ___________2011, by and among the Issuer and Manhattan Resources Limited (the “Purchase Agreement”) and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof.  This Warrant is referred to as the “Warrant” in the Purchase Agreement and shall include any warrants delivered in substitution or exchange therefor.

1.      Exercise of Warrant.

 

1.1           The purchase rights represented by the Warrant are exercisable by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, on any Business Day, prior to the Termination Date by (i) the surrender of this Warrant together with delivery of the Warrant Exercise Notice annexed hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder (the “Warrant Exercise Notice”) at the office of the Issuer (or such other office or agency of the Issuer as it may designate by notice to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Issuer) and (iii) payment of an amount equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Stock for which the Warrant is being exercised multiplied by (b) the Stock Purchase Price.  Payment of the Stock Purchase Price shall be made by wire transfer to such account as the Issuer shall have designated theretofore in writing or by certified or official bank 

 

 

  

4

  

 

 

check payable to the order of the Issuer.  Any amount invested in the Stock pursuant to this warrant shall reduce by like amount the amount of the Loans which may be outstanding under Section 2.1 of the Purchase Agreement so that the amount invested pursuant to this Warrant and the amount of outstanding and/or available Loans may at no time exceed $5,000,000.

 

1.2           This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided in Section 1 (the “Exercise Date”), and the person entitled to receive the shares of Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares of Stock as of the close of business on such date.  As promptly as practicable on or after the Exercise Date and in any event within ten (10) days thereafter, the Issuer at its expense shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Stock issuable upon such exercise and any cash payable to the Holder in accordance with Section 1.3.  In the event that this Warrant is exercised in part, the Issuer at its expense will execute and deliver as promptly as practicable but in any event within ten (10) days after the Exercise Date a new Warrant of like tenor exercisable for the number of shares of Stock for which this Warrant may then be exercised.

 

1.3           No Fractional Units or Scrip.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.  In lieu of any fractional unit to which Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Issuer shall make a cash payment equal to the Stock Purchase Price multiplied by such fraction.

 

2.      Adjustments.  The Stock Purchase Price and the number of shares of Stock issuable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

 

2.1           Reclassification, etc. If the Issuer, at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change the Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Stock under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Stock Purchase Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted.

 

2.2           Split, Subdivision or Combination of Stock.  If the Issuer at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the same class, the Stock Purchase Price for such securities shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately increased in the case of a combination.

 

2.3            Dividends and Distributions.  In case the Issuer at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of other or additional interests or other securities or property or options by way of dividend or spin-off, reclassification, recapitalization or similar corporate rearrangement) on the Stock, then provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof in addition to the number of shares of Stock receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder exercised this Warrant for such number of shares of Stock on the date of such dividend record date and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such dividend to and including the date of exercise, retained such securities, cash or other property receivable by the Holder during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Warrant.

 

3.      Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to Section 2, the Issuer at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Issuer shall, upon the written 

 

 

  

5

  

 

 

request, at any time, of the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Stock Purchase Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the number of shares of Stock and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

4.       No Impairment.  The Issuer will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Issuer, but will at all times in good faith assist in carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against impairment.

 

5.      Issuance of Stock upon Exercise.  The Issuer covenants and agrees that all Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding.

 

6.      Securities Are Not Registered.  By accepting delivery of this Warrant, the Holder hereof represents and warrants to the Issuer the following:

 

6.1           The Holder understands that this Warrant and the shares of Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise hereof have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), on the basis that no distribution or public offering of the interests of the Issuer is to be effected.  The Holder realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding its representations, the Holder has a present intention of acquiring the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the securities.

 

6.2           The Holder recognizes that this Warrant and the shares of Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise hereof must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available. In this connection, the Holder is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.

 

6.3           The Holder is either (i) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) promulgated by the SEC under the Act or (ii) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Act.

 

6.4           The Holder believes that it has received all the information such Holder consider necessary or appropriate in deciding whether to purchase this Warrant and the shares of Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise hereof.

 

6.5           The Holder is experienced in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities of companies in a similar stage of development and acknowledges that such Holder is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of such Holder’s investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that such Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in this Warrant and the shares of Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise hereof.

 

6.6           At the Holder’s request, the Issuer will enter into a registration rights agreement with the Holder on reasonable commercial terms under which Issuer will use commercially reasonable efforts to register shares of Stock acquired by Holder pursuant to this Warrant.

 

 

  

6

  

 

 

7.      Disposition of Warrant and Stock Issued Upon Its Exercise.

 

7.1           By accepting delivery of this Warrant, the Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any part of the Warrant or shares of Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof in any event unless and until:

 

(a)           The Issuer shall have received a letter secured by the Holder from the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that no action will be recommended to the Commission with respect to the proposed disposition;

 

(b)           There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said registration statement; or

 

(c)           The Holder shall have notified the Issuer of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Issuer with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if requested by the Issuer, the Holder shall have furnished the Issuer with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws.

 

7.2           Legend.  The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates evidencing the shares of Stock or other securities to be issued to the Holder upon the exercise hereof may bear the following legend:

 

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR ANY STATE OR OTHER SECURITIES LAWS.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

 

8.      Lost or Stolen Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Issuer or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Issuer at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant a new Warrant of like tenor and amount.

 

9.      Warrant Agent and Warrant Register.  The Issuer shall serve as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”) under this Warrant.  The Warrant Agent hereunder shall at all times maintain a register (the “Warrant Register”) of the Holder of this Warrant.  The Warrant Register shall contain the names and addresses of the Holder. Any Holder of this Warrant or any portion thereof may change his or her address as shown on the Warrant Register by written notice to the Warrant Agent requesting such change.  Any notice or written communication required or permitted to be given to the Holder may be delivered or given by mail to such Holder as shown on the Warrant Register and at the address shown on the Warrant Register.  Until this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant Register, the Issuer may treat the Holder as shown on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of this Warrant for all purposes, 

 

 

  

7

  

 

 

notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  Upon 30 days’ notice to the registered Holder hereof, the Issuer may appoint a new Warrant Agent.  Upon such appointment, the new Warrant Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the Warrant Agent, without any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed; but if for any reason it shall be reasonably necessary or expedient to execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed, the same shall be done at the expense of the Issuer and shall be legally and validly executed and delivered by the Issuer.

 

10.             Remedies.  The Issuer stipulates that the remedies at law of the Holder of this Warrant in the event of any default or threatened default by the Issuer in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate and that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.

 

11.           No Rights or Liabilities as a Member.  Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder hereof any rights as a shareholder of the Issuer with respect to the Stock prior to its issue or as imposing any obligation on such Holder to purchase any securities or as imposing any liabilities on such Holder as a shareholder of the Issuer, whether such obligation or liabilities are asserted by the Issuer or by creditors of the Issuer.

 

11.1          Notices.    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any notice required or desired to be served, given or delivered hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered (a) when sent after receipt of confirmation or answerback if sent by facsimile transmission, (b) three (3) Business Days after deposited with a reputable international courier with all charges prepaid, (c) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, or when received, if sent by email, all of which shall be properly addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address or number indicated as follows:
