Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 28, 2008, Next, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the Purchase Agreements) with each of Charles W. Reed, Dan F. Cooke, the William B. Hensley III Family Trust and Jeffery R. Kellam (collectively, the Investors), pursuant to which the Company issued an aggregate of 5,500,000 shares of common stock (the Shares) and warrants (the Warrants) for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 2,750,000 shares of common stock (the Warrant Shares) (the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares are referred to herein collectively as the Securities) for an aggregate offering price of $550,000 in cash. Each Share was sold to the Investors at a purchase price of $0.10 per Share, with each of Messrs. Reed and Cooke, who are directors of the Company, and the William B. Hensley III Family Trust purchasing 1,500,000 of the Shares and a warrant for the purchase of up to 750,000 of the Warrant Shares, and Mr. Kellam purchasing 1,000,000 of the Shares and a warrant for the purchase of up to 500,000 of the Warrant Shares. The Warrants, each in the form attached as an exhibit to the respective Purchase Agreements, are exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time for a period of seven years following the date of issuance and have an exercise price equal to $0.15 per share. The exercise price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant is subject to adjustment as provided therein. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreements, the Investors have certain demand registration rights that may be exercised with respect to the Shares and the Warrant Shares. The Purchase Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 through 99.4 and are incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreements and the Warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto. The offer and sale of the Securities (the Private Offering) was exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506 under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act) because each Investor was an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Act, no general solicitation or general advertising was used to sell the Securities, and the Investors agreed not to resell the Securities except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration.
As previously reported in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 26, 2007, the Company issued to Mr. Reed a warrant dated November 19, 2007 (the November Warrant) for the purchase of up to 1,087,500 shares of common stock. In connection with the Private Offering, the Company and Mr. Reed agreed to amend the November Warrant (i) to reflect the automatic reduction, in accordance with the terms of the November Warrant, in the stated exercise price to $0.10 per share during the entire seven-year exercise period thereof as a result of the Private Offering and (ii) to change the effect of certain anti-dilution provisions to specify an increase in the number of shares of common stock issuable thereunder to up to 1,367,000 shares, in each case subject to further adjustment as provided in the November Warrant, as so amended. The amendment to the November Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.5 and incorporated herein by reference.
