Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Arrangement.

 

Viewpoint Corporation entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, dated as of December 29, 2005, under which Viewpoint issued 5,100,000 shares of Viewpoint common stock in a private placement to such accredited investors at a purchase price of $1.00 per share (resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $5,100,000). The investors in the transaction also received warrants to purchase an additional 1,020,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share (subject to certain adjustments) and with a term of three years.

 

The securities offered and sold in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and were sold in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) under the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder. Each of the investors represented to Viewpoint that it is an “Accredited Investor”, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. Viewpoint entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors pursuant to which Viewpoint is required to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the shares within 30 days of the closing of the private placement.

 

Viewpoint issued a press release announcing the closing of the transaction on December 30, 2005. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
