Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On June 29, 2006, DrugMax, Inc. (“DrugMax”) entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and certain other agreements described below, each effective as of June 23, 2006, with Deerfield Special Situations Fund, L.P. (“Deerfield L.P.”) and Deerfield Special Situations Fund International, Limited (“Deerfield International”), pursuant to which Deerfield L.P. and Deerfield International (collectively, “Deerfield”) purchased two secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $10 million (the “Notes”) and eight warrants to purchase an aggregate of 16,500,000 shares of DrugMax common stock (the “Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $10 million.

The $10 million purchase price for the Notes and Warrants was used entirely for an early repayment, settlement and termination of $23 million in outstanding subordinated debt with DrugMax’s former supplier AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (“ABDC”). The subordinated debt with ABDC consisted of a subordinated convertible debenture in the original principal amount of $11.5 million and a subordinated promissory note in the original principal amount of $11.5 million. Both original debt instruments were 5-year agreements maturing in September 2010. In connection with the Deerfield Loan, DrugMax and ABDC entered into a Payoff and Mutual Release Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to settle and retire both existing debt instruments for a lump sum repayment of $10 million. Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC (“WFRF”), the Company’s senior lender, consented to DrugMax’s early repayment of the ABDC debt and waived any default under DrugMax’s credit facility with WFRF as a result of such repayment by entering into a Consent, Waiver and Second Amendment to such credit facility with DrugMax and its subsidiaries.

Principal on the Notes is due and payable in successive quarterly installments each in the amount of $166,000 and $334,000 respectively, beginning on September 1, 2006 and on each December 1, March 1, June 1 and September 1 thereafter and continuing until June 23, 2011, on which date all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest is due. The Notes bear interest at a rate equal to 2.5% for the first year, 5.0% for the second year, 10.0% for the third year, 15.0% for the fourth year and 17.5% for the fifth year. The Notes may be prepaid by DrugMax at anytime without penalty. The Notes contain usual and customary events of default for notes of these dollar amounts and provide that, upon the occurrence of an event default, the entire outstanding principal balance and all interest accrued under each note shall immediately become due and payable without demand or notice to DrugMax.

The Notes are secured by subordinated security interests in substantially all of the assets of DrugMax and its subsidiaries Familymeds, Inc. (“Familymeds”) and Valley Drug Company South (“Valley South”). These subordinated security interests are evidenced by three security agreements: (i) a Security Agreement between DrugMax and Deerfield L.P., as agent for Deerfield (the “Agent”), (ii) a Security Agreement between Familymeds and the Agent, and (iii) a Security Agreement between Valley South and the Agent (collectively, the “Security Agreements”). The Security Agreements are expressly subordinated to the prior lien rights of WFRF pursuant to DrugMax’s existing credit facility with WFRF. Each of Familymeds and Valley South have entered into guaranty agreements pursuant to which they have guaranteed all of the obligations of DrugMax under the Notes.
 
Warrants for 3,000,000 shares were issued at an exercise price of $0.61, the 30-day average fair market exercise price calculated at closing; Warrants for 5,500,000 shares were issued at an exercise price of $0.75 per share; Warrants for 5,500,000 shares were issued at an exercise price of $0.78 per share; and Warrants for 2,500,000 shares were issued at an exercise price of $0.92 per share. Proceeds from each Warrant exercise by Deerfield will be used to equally repay the Notes and for the working capital needs of DrugMax. All of the Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the closing date. DrugMax has entered into an Investor Rights Agreement with Deerfield, pursuant to which it has agreed to file a registration statement with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants within 60 days of the closing date, and to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as possible after the filing of such registration statement.

 
DrugMax claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act for the private placement of the Warrants and the shares of common stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of the Warrants pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder because, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the investors were accredited investors and/or qualified institutional buyers, the investors had access to information about DrugMax and their investment and the investors took the securities for investment and not resale.
