Material Changes and Agreements
On December 8, 2006, FAAC entered into two clarifying agreements:
- Warrant Clarification Agreement No. 2: Executed with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. It clarifies that if a warrant is unexercised and no effective registration statement exists on the expiration date, the warrant expires unexercised and unredeemed. Crucially, FAAC is under no obligation to provide cash or "net cash settle" the warrants under any circumstances.
- Amendment No. 2 to Unit Purchase Option: Executed with Sunrise Securities Corp. It clarifies that if the purchase option is unexercised without an effective registration statement, it expires unexercised. The holder is not entitled to net-cash settlement or damages for lack of registration. Exercise is contingent upon an effective registration statement or available exemption. FAAC retains the obligation to use best efforts to declare a registration statement effective upon demand.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing does not contain management commentary on future outlook, guidance, or general business risks.
