Sales of Equity Securities Pursuant to Regulation S The sales reflected in transactions N, O, P and T were made pursuant to Regulation S promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The securities were all restricted common stock, and shall remain as restricted securities for the one-year distribution compliance period. The facts relied upon to satisfy the exemption were as follows: (a) The Regulation S stock purchasers (the "Purchasers") were not U.S. persons as that term is defined under Regulation S.
(b) At the time the buy orders were originated, the Purchasers were outside the U.S. and were outside the U.S. as of the date of the execution and delivery of any subscription agreements.
(c) Purchasers purchased the shares for their own account and not on behalf of any U.S. person; the sales had not been pre-arranged with a purchaser in the U.S.; and all offers and resales of the securities are to be made only made in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S.
(d) The Purchasers were not entities organized under foreign law by a U.S. person, as defined in Regulation S Rule 902(k), for the purpose of investing in unregistered securities, unless the Purchasers were organized and owned by accredited investors, as defined in Regulation D, Rule 501(a), who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.
27
(e) The transactions were not purchases pursuant to a fiduciary account where a U.S. person, as defined in Regulation S Rule 902(o), had discretion to make investment decisions for the account. (f) To the knowledge of the Company , all offers and sales of the Regulation S shares by Purchasers prior to the expiration of a one-year distribution compliance period have only been made in compliance with the safe harbor contained in Regulation S, or pursuant to an exemption from registration. (g) All offering documents received by Purchasers included statements to the effect that the shares had not been registered under the 1933 Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons unless the shares are registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from the registration requirements was available.
(h) The Purchasers acknowledged that the purchase of the shares involved a high degree of risk and further acknowledged that they could bear the economic risk of the purchase of the shares, including the total loss of their investment.
(i) The Purchasers understood that the shares were being offered and sold to them in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States Federal and State securities laws and that the Registrant was relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchasers. All Regulation S sales were to non-U.S. persons, including private investment firms. Stock certificates for a portion of the shares purchased in the Regulation S transactions have not, as yet, been issued to the purchasers of the stock. However, full cash payment for the shares has been received by the Company on or before the dates indicated in the table.
Sales of Equity Securities Pursuant to Regulation D Transactions A and B, F through I, K through M, Q through S, and U constitute private placement transactions under Regulation D. The private placement transactions were variously made for the asset acquisition transactions described below, for services rendered to the Company, for the cancellation of debt of the Company, or for cash. Prior to the date of this report, the Company issued its 8% Convertible Debentures due December 21, 2001 in the face amount of $750,000, and its 8% Convertible Debentures due February 9, 2002 in the face amount of $2,000,000 (transactions L and R). These debentures were issued in private placements on December 21, 1998 and February 9, 1999 respectively. Both private placements were made to a single accredited investor. An aggregate of $165,000 was paid as a finders fee for the combined transactions. On December 8, 1998(transaction J), the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to purchase certain assets of Coast Communications, Inc., a Nevada corporation doing business as Alpha Broadcasting Communications. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company has issued 250,000 shares of its restricted
28
common stock to the selling entity, which is an accredited investor.. Further details of the described transaction, including a discussion of the balance of the consideration to be paid for the assets, are included in the Form 8-K report of the Company dated December 23, 1998 and filed with the SEC. Shares issued pursuant to transactions C, D, E and J were believed by management of the Company to be registered transactions or were believed to qualify for registration on Form S-8, and were not sold as restricted securities pursuant to an exemption from registration. The Form S-8 registration statements which were filed by the Company at the time of the issuance of these shares may not have been applicable to the shares issued or the transaction pursuant to which the shares were issued. All U.S. investors are believed to be accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.
