Exhibit 10.1

 

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

This SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of August 8, 2016, between FORM Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), each purchaser identified on the signature pages hereto (each, including its successors and assigns, a “Purchaser”), and for the limited purposes set forth in Section 1, Mistral XH Representative, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the representative of the Purchasers (the “Representative”).

 

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder, the Company desires to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, desires to purchase from the Company, shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), to the Purchasers pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and each Purchaser agree as follows:

 

1. Subscription

 

(a) Deposit. On the date hereof (the “Signing Date”), Mistral Spa Holdings, LLC (the “Initial Purchaser”) shall deposit with the Company an aggregate amount in cash equal to the Aggregate Purchase Price (as hereinafter defined). From and after the Signing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Company Unitholder (as defined in the Merger Agreement) shall have the opportunity to purchase a portion of the Shares (as hereinafter defined).

 

(b) Additional Purchasers. The Company and the Initial Purchaser acknowledge and agree that XpresSpa (as defined herein) intends to offer the opportunity to participate in the purchase of the Shares to each of its equityholders. In order to facilitate the Closing, the Initial Purchaser has executed this Agreement and funded its Subscription Amount. In the event that any other equityholder of XpresSpa elects to participate in the purchase of the Shares (in an amount determined in accordance with the notice delivered by XpresSpa to its equityholders related to this transaction), executes a joinder to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Representative, and timely funds their Subscription Amount, Schedule II hereto shall be amended (as directed by the Representative) to reflect such revised allocation of the Shares. On the Closing Date, the Representative shall provide the Company with the final Schedule II, reflecting (i) the allocation of the Shares amongst the Purchasers, after giving effect to the participation by other Purchasers, (ii) the related Subscription Amounts, and (iii) any amounts to be returned to a Purchaser from the Company as a result of aggregate funding by the Purchasers in excess of the aggregate Subscription Amount. This Agreement may be amended to add additional Purchasers, pursuant to one or more joinder agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Representative, in order to implement the foregoing provisions.

 

(c) Subscription of Purchasers. Each Purchaser, intending to be legally bound, severally (and not jointly nor jointly and severally), hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) listed next to such Purchaser’s name on Schedule II hereto, at a per share purchase price of $2.31 (the “Per Share Purchase Price”) for an aggregate purchase price of $1,733,825.94 (for the Purchasers in the aggregate) (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”), and the Company, intending to be legally bound, hereby agrees to issue and sell the Shares to the Purchasers, provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to accept or reject this subscription for Shares, in whole or in part. If the Company elects to accept this subscription for Shares in part, it shall promptly notify each Purchaser on the signature page countersigned by the Company and delivered to each Purchaser.

  

(d) Rights of Representative. The Purchasers and Company acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of this Agreement, the Representative shall have all of the rights, powers and privileges to which it is entitled under the Merger Agreement.

3. Purchase and Sale of Shares.  The Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers and the Purchasers agree to purchase the Shares at a closing to take place at the offices of the Company, or such other place as the Purchasers and the Company shall mutually agree, including by way of the exchange of facsimile or “pdf” copies of signatures (the “Closing”), on a Trading Day designated by the Representative not later than 15 Trading Days after the effectiveness of the Form S-4 registration statement related to the Company securities to be issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the “Closing Date”).  The Representative shall give the Company written notice of the designated Closing Date at least 3 Trading Days in advance of the designated Closing Date.

7. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Purchasers.  As of the date hereof, each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

(a) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

 

(b) Own Account. Such Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Act or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Shares in violation of the Act or any applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Shares in violation of the Act or any applicable state securities law (this representation and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

 

(c) Purchaser Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the Shares, it was, and as of the date hereof it is, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 under the Act.

 

(d) Experience of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

 

(e) General Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Shares as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

 

5 

 

 

(f) Access to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the two years preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law or regulation to file such material) (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. In addition, such Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it has such knowledge concerning XpresSpa and the contemplated transaction with the Company and has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares.

 

(g) Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder (including the contemplated transactions between the Company and XpresSpa), such Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, executed any purchases or sales, including short sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, to other investors in XpresSpa, or to such Purchaser’s representatives, including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other advisors, agents and Affiliates, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.
