On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a limited number of accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of $225,000 for 459,181 shares of its Common Stock to such persons in a private transaction (the “Equity Investment”). The purchasers participating in the transaction are members of the Company’s Board of Directors and management team (the “Purchasers”). The transaction closed on March 31, 2011. Of this amount, the Company received $150,000 in total cash proceeds for the purchase of the shares of Common Stock and three of the purchasers agreed with the Company to pay the purchase price for the shares of Common Stock by granting an offsetting credit to the Company for an amount equal to the purchase price and authorizing the Company to apply such credit against any obligation of the Company to such person within twelve months of the closing date, except for base salary. The shares to which the credit relates are to be held by the Company until the credit is applied and will be cancelled upon the one-year anniversary to the extent the credit is not applied. The aggregate amount of such credits totaled $75,000. As of the nine months ended June 30, 2011, $7,500 of such rights of offset were exercised by the Company in respect of 15,308 shares. The Company has used these cash proceeds for general working capital. The value ascribed to the Equity Investment was based on the fair value of the Company’s stock on March 31, 2011.  On May 18, 2011, the Company issued 51,020 shares of Common Stock to its counsel in connection with an arrangement to cancel $25,000 of outstanding fees.

 

On June 1, 2011, the Company entered into a debenture purchase agreement (the “Debenture Purchase Agreement”) with entities affiliated with Wynnefield Capital, Inc. (the “Debenture Purchasers”), providing for a standby commitment pursuant to which the Debenture Purchasers agreed to purchase convertible debentures (the “Convertible Debentures”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $350,000 (the “Total Commitment Amount”). During the 24-month commitment term, upon at least five (5) days’ written notice by the Company, the Debenture Purchasers will purchase Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount specified in such notice up to the Total Commitment Amount. In addition, the Company issued the Debenture Purchasers warrants to purchase an aggregate of 53,846 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”) in consideration of their agreement to provide the Total Commitment Amount. Subsequent to June 30, 2011, all of the Convertible Debentures have been sold by Company. The Company has drawn down the entire amount of available funds under the Debenture Purchase Agreement, of which $200,000 will be used for the initial payments under the Agreement relating to the settlement with the  former owners of RS Staffing. The closing of the drawdown occurred on July 28, 2011, and on such date the Company issued the Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000 to the Debenture Purchasers, against its receipt of such funds.

 

The Convertible Debentures will mature on the 27-month anniversary of issuance and bear interest at the rate of the greater of the prime rate plus 5%, or 10% per annum, payable at maturity or upon redemption of such Convertible Debentures. The Convertible Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.30 per share, which was in excess of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at that date. The initial conversion rate is subject to adjustment to account for certain customary events and also will include weighted-average anti-dilution protection for future issuances by the Company, subject to certain exclusions. The Company can also redeem the outstanding Convertible Debentures at any time at 120% of the remaining principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Warrants will be exercisable for five years at an initial exercise price equal to $1.00. The initial exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment for certain customary events and includes weighted average anti-dilution protection for future issuances by the Company, subject to certain exclusions.

 

In connection with the parties’ entry into the Purchase Agreement, the Company, TeamStaff GS, the Debenture Purchasers and Presidential Financial Corporation entered into subordination agreements concerning the terms of the subordination of the Convertible Debentures to the secured loan facility provided by Presidential Financial Corporation. Under the subordination agreements, the Company may not make payments to the Debenture Purchasers under the Convertible Debentures unless before and following such payments, no “Event of Default” exists under the secured loan facility.

 

The Debenture Purchasers are entities affiliated with Wynnefield Capital, Inc., the Company’s largest shareholder. Mr. Peter Black, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, is an employee of Wynnefield Capital. The Convertible Debentures and Warrants will be restricted securities issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

At June 30, 2011, direct costs associated with the Debenture Purchase Agreement totaled $32,000.  These costs (and those incurred in prospective periods) and the values ascribed to the warrants of $42,000 have been and will be capitalized as deferred financing costs and amortized over the period that such debentures are outstanding or the Debenture Agreement is effective.`
