Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 24, 2007, TWL Corporation (the "Company") received an additional $125,000 of gross proceeds (the Proceeds) from the sale of its 15% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures maturing April 24, 2011 (the " Debentures"), and six months warrants (the Warrants"; the Warrants and the Debentures are collectively referred to as the Securities), to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,666,667 shares of common stock, no par value per share (the Common Stock), of the Company. The Securities were sold pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase and Amendment Agreement (the Agreement) dated March 13, 2007, entered into by and between the Company and certain accredited investors signatories thereto (the Holders), which Agreement was subject of the Companys Current Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K on March 20, 2007 (the March 20, 2007 Current Report). The Securities contain exactly the same terms, registration rights, rights and conditions as the securities sold by the Company on March 13, 2007 (the Closing Date), as previously reported by the Company in the March 20, 2007 Current Report, with the exception of the Debentures maturing on April 24, 2011. The purchase and sale of any additional Securities may occur in one or more closings to occur no later than six months after the Closing Date. As of the date of this Current Report, the Company has received aggregate gross proceeds of $1,125,000 from the sale of the Securities, and expects to use these proceeds as general working capital.
Out of the Proceeds, the Company paid commissions of $10,000, an unallocated expense reimbursement fee of $2,500, and issued 12,500 Warrants to the placement agent, a registered broker dealer firm (the Placement Agent), on the terms substantially similar to the Warrants with the exception of the five year maturity period, as consideration for services performed by the Placement Agent in connection with the issuance of the Securities to the Holders pursuant to the Agreement. The Company further agreed to indemnify the Placement Agent and other persons against specific liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
As of May 2, 2007, the Company has in addition to the sales of the Securities discussed above and sales of Securities reported in the March 20, 2007 Current Report, closed on a private placement offering (the Offering) in which it sold an aggregate of 18,333,333 shares (the Shares) of its Common Stock at a price of $0.03 per Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $550,000. The Shares were sold pursuant to Common Stock Subscription Agreements entered into by and between the Company and the purchasers signatories thereto (the Purchasers). The Company also granted piggy back registration rights to the Purchasers. The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used as general working capital of, and reduction of vendor payables by, the Company.
The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act 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 the Company and their investment, the investors took the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.
