Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 17, 2015 and Convertible Promissory Note due January 17, 2016 with KBM Worldwide, Inc.

 

On February 20, 2015, Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) closed a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “KBM SPA”) with KBM Worldwide, Inc. (“KBM”) providing for the purchase of a Convertible Promissory Note bearing interest at 8% per annum in the principal amount of $115,000 due January 17, 2016 (the “KBM Note”). The KBM Note includes an $11,000 Original Issue Discount (“OID”). The KBM SPA and the KBM Note were signed on February 17, 2015 and the KBM Note was funded on February 20, 2015, with the Company receiving net proceeds of $90,000, (net of the OID, KBM’s legal expenses of $4,000 which, in accordance with the terms of the KBM SPA, the Company agreed to pay, and a finders fee of $10,000), which is to be used for general corporate purposes. The terms of the KBM SPA also provide, for a period of six months following the effective date, a right of first refusal to KBM for certain future financings entered into by the Company for amounts less than $75,000.

 

The KBM Note can be prepaid, at redemption premiums ranging from 10% to 35%, until 180 days following the issuance date of the KBM Note, after which the Company has no right of repayment. The KBM Note is convertible at a price per share equal to 61% of the average of the lowest three trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to conversion. If, at any time when the KBM Note is outstanding, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of its common stock in connection with a subsequent placement for no consideration or for a consideration per share based on a variable price formula that is less than the conversion price in effect on the date of such issuance of shares of common stock, then the conversion price will be reduced to the amount of the consideration per share received for such issuance.

 

The KBM Note contains certain covenants and restrictions including, among others, that for so long as the KBM Note is outstanding the Company will not pay dividends or dispose of certain assets, and that the Company will maintain its listing on an over-the-counter market. Events of default under the note include, among others, failure to pay principal or interest on the note or comply with certain covenants under the note.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the KBM SPA and the KBM Note are summaries, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such documents, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
