M. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet and through the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.

 

On June 20, 2014, the Company entered into three agreements: a securities purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Joseph P. Daly, an existing SofTech shareholder; a promissory note agreement (the “Note”) with EssigPR, Inc. (“EssigPR”), a Puerto Rico corporation; and a partnership agreement (the “Partnership Agreement”) with Essig Research, Inc. (“Essig”), a corporation based in Cincinnati, Ohio. EssigPR and Essig are owned by the aforementioned Mr. Daly. Each of the agreements between the parties is briefly described below.

 

Under the Share Purchase Agreement dated June 20, 2014, Mr. Daly, Essig’s CEO and owner, purchased 110,000 shares of SofTech common stock, par value $0.10 per share for $550,000, in a direct private placement. Mr. Daly shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase some or all of the shares at $7.00 per share during the ninety (90) day period immediately following the three-year anniversary of the purchase date.

 

The Note is a three (3) year borrowing arrangement with EssigPR as the lender. The promissory note is a $750,000 term loan maturing on April 1, 2017, that accrues interest at a 9.5% interest rate, paid quarterly in arrears. The principal on the Note will be paid from the deferred payments (Holdback Payment and Earn-Out Payments) due over the next three years from Mentor in connection with their purchase of the CADRA product line as described herein. The Company is responsible for ensuring that the Mentor deferred payments are sufficient for paying down the Note or, on April 1, 2017, making up for any shortfall. Mentor deferred payments in excess of amounts due under the Note revert to the Company.

 

On October 1, 2014, the Company entered into an additional short term borrowing arrangement with EssigPR (“Short Term Note”) whereby it was agreed that the Company would retain $300,000 of the Holdback Payment due from Mentor in October 2014 rather than utilize those monies to pay down the above described Note. The interest rate on the Short Term Note is 9.5%, payable quarterly in arrears. The Short Term Note can be repaid at any time without penalty and is due in full on April 10, 2015. EssigPR was awarded 5,000 stock options to purchase SofTech common stock at $1.00 per share. The stock options will expire on October 1, 2024 if not exercised.

 

The Partnership Agreement is an arrangement whereby the Company and Essig have agreed to work together to market and deliver Essig’s professional services capabilities to the SofTech customer base. In addition, the Company has agreed to provide office space for up to fifteen (15) Essig employees or contractors at no charge at its facility in Massachusetts. The Partnership Agreement expires on April 1, 2017.

 

In June 2014, each of the Investors in the fiscal year 2013 Redeemable Common Stock arrangement described in Note B. above exercised their Put Option. The Company repurchased those 50,000 shares in exchange for $275,000 in accordance with the terms of those Stock Purchase Agreements.

 

On August 8, 2014, the Company purchased 101,411 shares of its common stock from Greenleaf in exchange for $37,522, or $0.37 per share.

 

In three transactions in late September 2014, the Company raised proceeds of $250,000 from the issuance of an aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share, at $5.00 per share to accredited investors in separate private placement transactions.

 

These transactions were completed pursuant to Securities Purchase Agreements which the Company entered into with each of the investors as described in the table below.

 

The material terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements are summarized below.

 

·          Number of Shares Sold: An aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share;

·          Purchase Price Per Share: The shares were sold to investors at a purchase price of $5.00 per share in lots of 10,000 shares;

·          Type of Offering: Direct private placement to accredited investors; no registration rights; no third party placement fees;

·          Fees: In lieu of registration rights and Company costs savings related to direct negotiation with accredited investors, each $50,000 investment entitles the investor to a fee of $5,000 to be paid in eight equal quarterly installments during the twenty-four month period following the investment; and

·          Purchase Put Right: Each share purchased shall also give the investors the right to require the Company to repurchase the shares at $7.00 for the 30 day period following the twenty-four month anniversary of the investment.

 

The Company does not believe that the issuance of such shares will restrict the Company’s ability to utilize its net operating losses. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company approved in advance the purchase of the shares in these transactions as “Exempt Transactions” as defined in Section 1(o) of the Company’s Rights Agreement, dated February 3, 2012, between the Company and the Registrar and Transfer Company.
