Exhibit 1
SECURITIES ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT
This Securities Assignment Agreement (this “Assignment”) is dated as of December 15, 2014, by and among 1347 Investors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”), and the parties identified on the signature page hereto (each a “Buyer” and, collectively, the “Buyers”).
WHEREAS, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Assignment, the Seller wishes to assign to the Buyers an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of 1347 Capital Corp. (the “Company”), and the Buyers wish to receive the Shares from the Seller.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and the mutual covenants contained in this Assignment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Assignment of Shares. Seller hereby assigns 10,000 Shares to each of the Buyers. The Buyers have paid to the Seller an aggregate amount of Two Thousand One Hundred Seventy Three Dollars and Ninety One Cents ($2,173.91), in consideration of the assignment of the Shares.
Section 2. Escrow of Shares. Each Buyer (i) acknowledges that such Buyer has reviewed the Stock Escrow Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2014, by and among the Company, the Seller and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Escrow Agreement”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto, and (ii) agrees to be bound by the terms, conditions, restrictions, representations, warranties, obligations, agreements and covenants set forth in the Escrow Agreement.
Section 3. Letter Agreement. Each Buyer (i) acknowledges that such Buyer has reviewed the Letter Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2014, by and between the Company and the Seller (the “Letter Agreement”), and (ii) agrees to be bound by the terms, conditions, restrictions, representations, warranties, obligations, agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 1, 2(b), 3, 5 and 9-16 of the Letter Agreement.
Section 4. No Conflicts. Each party represents and warrants that neither the execution and delivery of this Assignment by such party, nor the consummation or performance by such party of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Escrow Agreement or Sections 1, 2(b), 3, 5 and 9-16 of the Letter Agreement, will with or without notice or lapse of time, constitute, create or result in a breach or violation of, default under, loss of benefit or right under or acceleration of performance of any obligation required under any agreement to which it is a party.
Section 5. Investment Representations. Each Buyer represents and warrants, with respect to himself only, as follows: such Buyer hereby acknowledges that an investment in the Shares involves certain significant risks. Such Buyer has no need for liquidity in his investment in the Shares for the foreseeable future and is able to bear the risk of that investment for an
indefinite period. Such Buyer acknowledges and hereby agrees that the Shares will not be transferable under any circumstances unless registered by the Company in accordance with federal and state securities laws or sold in compliance with an exemption under such laws and such transfer complies with all applicable lock-up restrictions on such Buyer (as described in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File Number 333-195695) relating to an underwritten public offering by the Company). Such Buyer further understands that any certificates evidencing the Shares bear a legend referring to the foregoing transfer restrictions.
The Shares are being acquired solely for such Buyer’s own account, for investment purposes only, and are not being purchased with a view to or for the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof; and such Buyer has no present plans to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for such resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization. Such Buyer has been given the opportunity to (i) ask questions of and receive answers from the Seller and the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Shares, and the business and financial condition of the Company and (ii) obtain any additional information that the Seller possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to assist such Buyer in evaluating the advisability of the purchase of the Shares and an investment in the Company. Such Buyer is not relying on any oral representation made by any person as to the Company or its operations, financial condition or prospects. Such Buyer is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Section 6. Miscellaneous. This Assignment, together with the certificates, documents, instruments and writings that are delivered pursuant hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of its subject matter. This Assignment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Assignment may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto. Except as otherwise provided herein, no party hereto may assign either this Assignment or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other party.
