Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 23, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), SilverSun Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), entered into a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement”) with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mark Meller (the “Series B Holder”), pursuant to which the Series B Holder was issued the only one (1) authorized share of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”).  The Series B Holder was issued one (1) share of Series B Preferred Stock as partial consideration for such Series B Holder’s agreement to personally guarantee the repayment of two promissory notes (the “Notes”), dated April 11, 2011, each in the principal face amount of $275,000, for an aggregate principal sum of $550,000 the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1.

The Series B Preferred Stock has the rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions set for in the Certificate of Designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) filed by the Corporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (“Delaware Secretary of State”) on September 23, 2011, as more fully described in Item 5.03 below.

Each one (1) share of the Series B Preferred shall have voting rights equal to (x) the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote divided by (y) forty nine one-hundredths (0.49) minus (z) the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote is 5,000,000, the voting rights of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be equal to 5,204,082 (e.g. (5,000,000 / 0.49) – 5,000,000 = 5,204,082).

The foregoing descriptions of the Notes and the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the complete text of the Form of Note incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1 and the complete text of the Form of Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement attached herein as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of the securities referenced herein pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder since, 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 us and their investment, the investors took the securities for investment and not resale, and we took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On September 23, 2011, the Corporation filed the Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of the State pursuant to which the Corporation set forth the designation, powers, rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions of the Series B Preferred Stock.  Among other things, each one share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the Series B Holder to have voting rights equal to (x) the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote divided by (y) forty nine one-hundredths (0.49) minus (z) the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote is 5,000,000, the voting rights of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be equal to 5,204,082 (e.g. (5,000,000 / 0.49) – 5,000,000 = 5,204,082).

The foregoing description of the Series B Preferred Stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 
 

 
 
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation authorizes the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock and further authorizes the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) to fix and determine the designation, preferences, conversion rights, or other rights, including voting rights, qualifications, limitations, or restrictions of the preferred stock. However, so long as any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) are outstanding, the Company shall not, without first obtaining the unanimous written consent of the holders of Series A Preferred, alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred so as to affect adversely the holders of Series A Preferred Stock.  On September 14, 2011 the Board approved by unanimous written consent an amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation to designate the rights and preferences of Series B Preferred Stock.  On September 14, 2011 the holders of Series A Preferred approved by unanimous written consent an amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of incorporation to designate the rights and preferences of Series B Preferred Stock.

On September 23, 2011, the Corporation filed the Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of State.  The Series B Preferred Stock is being issued to the Series B Holder as described in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03.
