Exhibit 10.66

 

FORM OF
PURCHASE OPTION AGREEMENT

 

PURCHASE OPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of this ___ day of March, 2014, by and between Medytox Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation with its principal place of business at 400 South Australian Avenue, Suite 800, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401 (the "Company" or "Medytox"); and ________________, with an address at ____________________________ ___________________ ("Holder").

 

WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS. Holder is the owner of record of 1,000 (one thousand) shares of Class B Preferred Stock (the "Shares") of the Company; and

 

WHEREAS, Holder is willing to grant the Company an option (the "Option") to acquire the Shares upon the terms and conditions contained herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the mutual premises set forth herein, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby agreed and acknowledged to by the parties hereto, the Holder and the Company agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Grant of Option; Purchase Price; Exercise of Option.

 

1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Holder hereby grants to the Company and its successors and assigns, an irrevocable, unconditional, and exclusive Option to purchase any or all of the Shares owned of record or beneficially by Holder. The parties agree that if the Option is exercised in full, the Company would acquire all of the Shares owned of record by Holder. The Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the Company at any time prior to the Option Expiration Date, as defined below.

 

1.2 The Option purchase price (the Purchase Price) for the Shares that shall be paid for the purchase of all of the Shares upon the exercise of the Option shall be the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (Five Million Dollars).

 

1.3 The parties agree that the Option may be exercised for less than all of the Shares. In the event the Option is exercised for less than all of the Shares subject to the Option, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase Price by the percentage of the total amount of Shares subject to the Option that is being purchased. By way of illustration and not limitation, in the event the Option is exercised for 51% of the total Shares subject to the Option, the Purchase Price shall be 51% of the Purchase Price. In the event the Option is exercised in part, the Option shall continue in effect until the Option Expiration Date, and the Company may exercise at any time up until the Option Expiration Date, the Option for any or all of the remaining Shares subject to the Option.

 

1.4 The Option granted in this Agreement is exercisable by the Company in its sole discretion at any time on or after the date hereof, up until and including the Option Expiration Date. Holder agrees and acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to exercise the Option, in full or in part. To exercise the Option, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder, a purchaser exercise notice (the "Purchaser Exercise Notice"). The Purchaser Exercise Notice shall set forth the number of Shares being purchased, the Purchase Price, and the Option exercise closing date (the "Option Exercise Closing Date"), which must be a date at least five (5) days after delivery of the Purchase Exercise Notice, and not later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Purchase Exercise Notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the parties agree that the Option Exercise Closing Date may be a date subsequent to the Option Expiration Date, provided the Purchaser Exercise Notice was delivered to the Holder on or prior to the Option Expiration Date.

1.5 Any dividends declared on the Shares, including any record date established for the payment of dividends, prior to the date of the Purchase Exercise Notice shall be payable and due to the Holder. No dividends shall be paid or payable to the Holder if such dividends are declared or a record date is established for the payment of dividends, on or subsequent to the date of the Purchase Exercise Notice.

 

1.6 The Holder agrees and acknowledges that the Company is planning to enter into option agreements, in substantially the same form as this Agreement, with the other holders of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, and that in the event the Company determines to exercise less than all of the options available to it or for less than all of the shares that are subject to such options, the Company is not obligated to exercise options and acquire shares from any specific holder or holders or for any specified amounts, and that any such exercise, as to the timing, amount of shares and the identity of the holder which shares will be the subject of the option exercise is at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company and its board of directors.

 

Section 2. Option Exercise Closing Date.

 

2.1 On or prior to the Option Exercise Closing Date, the Holder shall deliver to the Company certificates evidencing all of the Shares subject to the Option which are being exercised, with stock powers duly endorsed in blank, with signatures medallion guaranteed. In addition, on or prior to the Option Exercise Closing Date, the Holder shall execute and deliver any and all other documents or instruments and shall take all other actions as may be requested by the Company to effectuate the exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, as set forth on the Purchaser Exercise Notice.

 

2.2 As of the Option Exercise Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder by bank check or wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Purchase Price.

 

Section 3. Option Expiration Date.

 

3.1 The Option Expiration Date shall be March ___, 2016 (2 years after the date hereof).

 

3.2 If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Option Expiration Date renders this Agreement unenforceable or invalid, then the Option Expiration Date shall be reduced to a date which would cure the invalidity or unenforceability. In the event that a regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that this Agreement or the Option violates any laws, statutes, rules or regulations (and that determination is not stayed or appealed within ninety (90) days of that determination), or is unenforceable or invalid, the parties will negotiate in good faith to enter into an alternative legally valid arrangement which substantially preserves for the parties the relative economic benefits of this Agreement.

Section 4. Failure to Deliver Shares. Upon payment of the Purchase Price by the Company, as set forth in Section 1 to this Agreement, the Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised shall be deemed to have been sold, assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Company, and the Holder shall have no further rights to the Shares, and Company shall record the transfer in its stock transfer book or in any appropriate manner, or issue replacement certificates for the shares, irrespective of whether the Holder refuses to, is unable to, or for any reason fails to deliver the certificate or certificates evidencing the Shares together with the requisite stock powers. Holder agrees that Holder shall be solely liable for any damages or losses incurred by the Company for any failure to deliver the Shares and/or stock powers to the Company.

 

Section 5. Covenants of the Holder.

 

5.1 The Holder covenants and agrees that the Holder owns of record all of the Shares and will take no action, directly or indirectly, to reduce or cause the Holder's ownership of such Share to be reduced or diminished in any fashion whatsoever. The Holder covenants and agrees that the Holder shall not sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or otherwise encumber the Shares, and shall not issue any rights, options, or calls or enter into any agreement (other than with the Company) with respect to the Shares during the term of this Option.

 

5.2 The Holder further agrees that the Holder will not purchase or attempt to purchase any shares of the Company's Class B shares owned of record or beneficially by any other person, irrespective of whether the Holder has the right to purchase such additional shares, during the term of the Option.

 

5.3 The parties agree and acknowledge that the covenants of the Holder set forth in this Agreement are being relied upon by the Company in entering into this Agreement,

 

5.4 The Holder further covenants and agrees that the termination or expiration of any other agreement by and between the Company and the Holder, irrespective of the reasons therefore, shall not impair the ability of the Company to exercise the Option, in whole or in part.

 

Section 6. Representations and Warranties of the Holder. As a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement and/or consummate any exercise of the Option, the Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company as of the date hereof, as of the Option Exercise Date, and as of the Option Exercise Closing Date, the following representations and warranties. Holder agrees that upon any exercise of the Option by the Company, the Holder shall also be deemed to have automatically made as of the Option Exercise Date and as of the Option Exercise Closing Date, the following representations and warranties.
