Item 1.01.      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
As previously disclosed, on May 10, 2010, Twistbox Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”), a wholly owned subsidiary of NeuMedia, Inc. (the “Company”), received from ValueAct SmallCap Master Fund, L.P. (“VAC”) a Notice of Event of Default and Acceleration (“Notice”). In the Notice, VAC stated that an event of default occurred under that certain Senior Secured Note, as amended, in favor of VAC dated July 30, 2007 and due July 31, 2010 (the “VAC Note”) as a result of Twistbox’s and the Company’s failure to comply with the cash balance covenant under the VAC Note and, therefore, VAC accelerated all outstanding amounts payable by Twistbox under the VAC Note. The VAC Note was secured by, among other things, the assets of AMV Holding Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“AMV”), which was also a guarantor of the Note.  In connection with the Notice, VAC instituted an administration proceeding in the United Kingdom against AMV.

On June 21, 2010, the Company signed and closed the transactions contemplated by a binding agreement (the “Agreement”) with VAC,  Jonathan Cresswell (“Cresswell”), Nathaniel MacLeitch (including in his capacity as Trustee for the AMV Founders under the AMV Note (each as defined below) “MacLeitch”), Robert Ellin (“Ellin”), Trinad Management, LLC (“Trinad Management”) and Trinad Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (“Trinad Fund” and together with Ellin and Trinad Management, the “Trinad Affiliates”) and the Guber Family Trust (“Guber” and, together with the Trinad Affiliates, the “Lead Participating Investors”) with regard to the (i) partial satisfaction of the VAC Note, and (ii) satisfaction of that certain Secured Promissory Note issued by NeuMedia and held by Cresswell, MacLeitch and certain other former shareholders of AMV (together with their affiliates the “AMV Founders”), as amended (the “AMV Note”).

Sale of AMV

Pursuant to the Agreement, VAC and the AMV Founders, acting through a newly formed company (“NewCo”), acquired the operating subsidiaries of AMV (the “Assets”) in exchange for the release of US$23 million of secured indebtedness (the “Sale”), comprising of a release of all amounts due and payable under the AMV Note and all of the amounts due and payable under the VAC Note except for US$3.5 million in principal. The Company retained all assets and liabilities of Twistbox and the Company other than the Assets.

In connection with the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the transaction documents set forth in the Agreement (the “Restructure”), (i) the VAC Note (as amended and restated, the “Amended VAC Note”), (ii) that certain Guarantee and Security Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2007, by and among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, the investors party thereto and VAC and (iii) that certain Guaranty, given as of February 12, 2008, by the Company to VAC (as amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Guaranty”), were amended and restated in their entirety.

 
 

 

New Senior Secured Notes

In addition, for purposes of capitalizing the Company, the Company sold and issued US$2.5 million of Senior Secured Convertible Notes due June 21, 2013 of the Company (the “New Senior Secured Notes”) to the Lead Participating Investors.  The New Senior Secured Notes have a three year term and bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum payable in arrears semi-annually. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time on or prior to the 18th month following the original issue date of the New Senior Secured Notes, the Company may, at its option, in lieu of making any cash payment of interest, elect that the amount of any interest due and payable on any interest payment date on or prior to the 18th month following the original issue date of the New Senior Secured Notes be added to the principal due under the New Senior Secured Notes. The accrued and unpaid principal and interest due on the New Senior Secured Notes are convertible at any time at the election of the holder into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of US$0.15 per share, subject to adjustment. The New Senior Secured Notes are secured by a first lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of that certain Guarantee and Security Agreement, dated as of June 21, 2010, among Twistbox, the Company, each of the subsidiaries thereof party thereto, the investors party thereto and Trinad Management. The Amended VAC Note is subordinated to the New Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the terms of that certain Subordination Agreement, dated as of June 21, 2010, by and between Trinad Fund, and VAC, and each of the Company and Twistbox.

Each purchaser of a New Senior Secured Note also received a warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of US$0.25 per share, subject to adjustment.  For each $50,000 of New Senior Secured Notes purchased, the purchaser received a Warrant to purchase 166,667 shares of common stock of the Company.  Each Warrant has a five year term.

The New Senior Secured Notes and Warrants were sold and issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

Under the Agreement, certain significant stockholders of the Company have the right to purchase up to an aggregate US$600,000 of the New Senior Secured Notes.
