Item 2.01
Completion of Acquisition
As disclosed in a Form 8-K filed on March 16, 2015, on March 12, 2015, GC Security, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary (GCC) of Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. (the Company), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the APA) by and among the Company, GCC and Iron Protection Group, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the Seller), whereby GCC agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of Seller (the Acquisition). The APA closed on March 26, 2015 and the Company became the owner of the Seller. Prior to entering into the APA, the Company had no relationship with the Seller or its sole shareholder.
Pursuant to the terms of the APA, at the closing of the Acquisition, the Company delivered to Hunter Garth, the sole shareholder of the Seller, 500,000 restricted shares of the Companys common stock (the Stock Consideration). The shares to be issued to the Seller vest over a 12 month period. In addition, the Company delivered to Mr. Garth three year warrants (the Warrants) to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of: (i) $4.50 for warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of the Companys common stock, and (i) $5.00 for warrants to purchase another 125,000 shares of the Companys common stock. The APA contains certain provisions that require Seller to forfeit a portion of the Stock Consideration in the event that Seller violates its obligations under the APA relating to non-competition and non-disclosure.
The foregoing description of the APA does not purport to be a complete description of the parties rights and obligations under the APA. The foregoing description of the APA is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1 filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K filed on March 16, 2015.

Warrant [__] | Issue Date: [__], 2015 |
ADVANCED CANNABIS SOLUTIONS, INC.
WARRANT
TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
THIS WARRANT (the Warrant) certifies that, for value received, Hunter Garth, or its assigns (the Holder) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the Initial Exercise Date) and on or prior to the close of business of the thirty sixth (36th) month after the Initial Exercise Date (the Expiration Date) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Advanced Cannabis, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the Company), up to 250,000 shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the Warrant Shares) of the Companys $0.01 par value common stock, (Common Stock). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to $4.50(125,000 shares)/$5.00 (125,000 shares)(Purchase Price), subject to adjustment hereunder (the Exercise Price).
1.
The Holder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the exercise form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company, or such other office as the Company shall notify the Holder in writing, together with a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company in the amount of the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased.
2.
Principal Market shall include the NYSE MKT, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board (or any successors to any of the foregoing) (whichever is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock), or any securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being listed, quoted or traded. The Company will from time to time take all action which may be necessary so that the Warrant Shares, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of the Warrant, will be listed on the Principal Market on which other shares of Common Stock are then listed, if any.
If the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than the Companys initial public offering or a registration relating solely to the offer and sale of non-convertible, the Companys current registration statement on Form S-1 indicated as registration number 333-193890, non-exchangeable debt securities or a registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8, or any successor or similar forms) (a Piggyback Registration), whether for the account of the Company or otherwise, it will include all Registrable Securities (as hereinafter defined) in such registration statement and give written notice to each registered Holder. The Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all of the Registrable Securities in such registration statement. The term Registrable Securities means (i) the Warrant Shares and any other securities of the Company issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and (ii) any shares of capital stock or other securities issued or issuable with respect to this Warrant, as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange, or similar event or otherwise.
3.
The person or persons in whose name or names any certificate representing Common Stock is issued hereunder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Stock represented thereby as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant is exercised with respect to such shares, whether or not the transfer books of the Company shall be closed. Until such time as this Warrant is exercised or terminates, the Purchase Price payable and the number and character of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.
1
4.
The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Form of Exercise (attached hereto as Exhibit A), the Holder (together with the Holders affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holders affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 5 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Form of Exercise (attached hereto as Exhibit A) shall be deemed to be the Holders determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 5 shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
5.
The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized Common Stock, free from all preemptive rights, which will be sufficient to permit the exercise of this Warrant. The Company further covenants that such shares as may be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges. Unless previously exercised, this Warrant shall expire at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, on the Expiration Date and shall be void thereafter or can be extended at the Companys discretion.
6.
If the Company subdivides its outstanding Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combines its outstanding Common Stock, the Purchase Price then applicable to shares covered by this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision, or proportionately increased in the case of a combination.
7.
If (a) the Company reorganizes its capital, reclassifies its capital stock, consolidates or merges with or into another corporation (but only if the Company is not the surviving corporation and no longer has more than a single shareholder) or sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all its property, assets, or business to another corporation, and (b) pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock, or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (Other Property), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock, then (c) Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation and Other Property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, or disposition of assets as a holder of the number of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. At the time of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as
2
determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to adjust the number of shares of the common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation for which this Warrant is exercisable. For purposes of this section, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this section shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, or disposition of assets.
8.
If a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a merger or consolidation of the Company) is at any time proposed during the term of this Warrant, the Company shall give written notice to the Holder at least thirty days prior to the record date of the proposed transaction. The notice shall contain: (1) the date on which the transaction is to take place; (2) the record date (which must be at least thirty days after the giving of the notice) as of which holders of the Common Stock entitled to receive distributions as a result of the transaction shall be determined; (3) a brief description of the transaction; (4) a brief description of the distributions, if any, to be made to holders of the Common Stock as a result of the transaction; and (5) an estimate of the fair market value of the distributions. On the date of the transaction, if it actually occurs, this Warrant and all rights existing under this Warrant shall terminate.
9.
In no event shall any fractional share of Common Stock of the Company be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant. If, upon exercise of this Warrant as an entirety, the Holder would, except as provided in this Section 9, be entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock, then the Company shall issue the next higher number of full Common Stock, issuing a full share with respect to such fractional share. If this Warrant is exercised at one time for less than the maximum number of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof, the Company shall issue to the Holder a new warrant of like tenor and date representing the number of Common Stock equal to the difference between the number of shares purchasable upon full exercise of this Warrant and the number of shares that were purchased upon the exercise of this Warrant.
10.
No adjustments in the Purchase Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least five cents in such price, provided however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 10 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.
12.
Whenever the Purchase Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
13.
If at any time prior to the expiration or exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution upon its Common Stock or shall make any subdivision or combination of, or other change in its Common Stock, the Company shall cause notice thereof to be mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to Holder at least thirty full business days prior to the record date set for determining the holders of Common Stock who shall participate in such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or other change. Such notice shall also specify the record date as of which holders of Common Stock who shall participate in such dividend or distribution is to be determined. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any dividend or distribution.
14.
The Company will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Holder and any assignees of this Warrant. Holder may change its address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change. Any notice or written communication required or permitted to be given to the Holder may be delivered by confirmed facsimile or telecopy or by a recognized overnight courier, addressed to Holder at the address shown on the warrant register.
15.
This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws ("State Acts") or regulations in reliance upon exemptions under the Securities Act, and exemptions under the State Acts. Subject to compliance with the Securities Act and State Acts, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or in part, at the office of the Company at which this Warrant is exercisable, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the assignment hereof properly endorsed.
16.
In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company may issue a new warrant of like tenor and denomination and deliver the same (a) in exchange and substitution for and upon surrender and cancellation of any mutilated Warrant, or (b) in lieu of any Warrant lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant (including a reasonably detailed affidavit with respect to the circumstances of any loss, theft, or destruction) and of indemnity with sufficient surety satisfactory to the Company.
3
17.
Unless a current registration statement under the Securities Act, shall be in effect with respect to Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder, by accepting this Warrant, covenants and agrees that, at the time of exercise hereof, and at the time of any proposed transfer of Common Stock acquired upon exercise hereof, the Company may require Holder to make such representations, and may place such legends on certificates representing Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, as may be reasonably required in the opinion of counsel to the Company to permit such Common Stock to be issued without such registration.
18.
This Warrant does not entitle Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company.
19.
Nothing expressed in this Agreement and nothing that may be implied from any of the provisions hereof is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties to this Agreement any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement contained herein, and all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements contained herein shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
20.
The provisions and terms of this Warrant shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado.
