(this "Agreement") by and among In Touch Media Group, Inc., a Florida

         The parties hereto agree as follows:

 

                                   ARTICLE I

 

                     PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES AND WARRANTS

 

         Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Notes and Warrants.

amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), convertible into shares of the

Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), in

substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Senior Notes"). The

Company and the Purchasers are executing and delivering this Agreement in

accordance with and in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration

afforded by Section 4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the

to any or all of the investments to be made hereunder.

 

         (b) Upon the following terms and conditions, the Purchasers shall be

issued:

 

                  (i) Series A Warrants, in substantially the form attached

         hereto as Exhibit C (the "Series A Warrants"), to purchase a number of

         shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the

         number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of such

         Purchaser's Senior Note at an exercise price per share equal to the

         Warrant Price (as defined in the Series A Warrants) and a term of Five

         (5) years following the Closing Date;

 

                  (ii) Series B Warrants, in substantially the form attached

         hereto as Exhibit D (the "Series B Warrants"), to purchase a number of

         shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the

         number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of such

         (7) years following the Effective Date (as defined in Section 1.4

         hereof); and

 

                  (iii) Series C Warrants, in substantially the form attached

         hereto as Exhibit E (the "Series C Warrants"), to purchase a number of

         shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the

         number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of such

         Purchaser's Senior Note at an exercise price per share equal to the

         Warrant Price (as defined in

 

 

<PAGE>

 

         the Series B Warrants) and a term of Ten (10) years following the

         Effective Date (as defined in Section 1.4 hereof); and

 

         The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the

Warrants issuable to each Purchaser is set forth opposite such Purchaser's name

on Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

         Section 1.2 Purchase Price and Closing. Subject to the terms and

conditions hereof, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers and,

in consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations,

warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchasers,

severally but not jointly, agree to purchase the Notes and Warrants for an

aggregate purchase price of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the "Purchase

Price"). The Notes and Warrants shall be sold and funded in one closing (the

Purchaser (x) its Notes for the principal amount set forth opposite the name of

such Purchaser on Exhibit A hereto and (y) the Warrants to purchase such number

follows:

 

         (a) Organization, Good Standing and Power. The Company is a corporation

duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the

State of Florida

 

 

NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

<PAGE>

 

and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties

and assets and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted. The Company

does not have any Subsidiaries (as defined in Section 2.1(g)) or own securities

of any kind in any other entity except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(g) hereto.

The Company and each such Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.1(g)) is duly

qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in

every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property

owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s)

(alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not

have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Material

Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, operations,

properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company and its

Subsidiaries and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would

prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company to

perform any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

 

         (b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate

power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, the Notes, the

Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement by and among the Company and the

Purchasers, dated as of the date hereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit F

attached hereto (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), and the Irrevocable

Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in Section 3.16 hereof) (collectively,

the "Transaction Documents") and to issue and sell the Securities in accordance

with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of the

Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the

transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all

necessary corporate action, and, except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(b), no

further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or

stockholders is required. When executed and delivered by the Company, each of

the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the

Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as

such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization,

moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating

to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor's rights and remedies or

by other equitable principles of general application.

 

         (c) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock and the issued and

outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company as of the Closing Date is set

forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto. All of the outstanding shares of the Common

Stock and any other outstanding security of the Company have been duly and

validly authorized. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Commission

Documents (as defined in Section 2.1(f)) or as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c)

hereto, no shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Company are

entitled to preemptive rights or registration rights and there are no

outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, call or

commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights

convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company. Furthermore,

except as set forth in this Agreement and as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c)

hereto, there are no contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements by

which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of the

capital stock of the Company or options, securities or rights convertible into

shares of capital stock of the Company. Except for customary transfer

restrictions contained in agreements entered into by the Company in order to

sell restricted securities or as provided on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, the Company

is not a party to or bound by any agreement or understanding granting

registration or anti-dilution rights to any

 

NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

PAGE 3

<PAGE>

 

person with respect to any of its equity or debt securities. Except as set forth

on Schedule 2.1(c), the Company is not a party to, and it has no knowledge of,

any agreement or understanding restricting the voting or transfer of any shares

of the capital stock of the Company.

 

         (d) Issuance of Securities. The Notes and the Warrants to be issued at

each Closing have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and,

when paid for or issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Notes shall be

validly issued and outstanding, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and

rights of refusal of any kind. When the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are

issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and as set

forth in the Notes and Warrants, such shares will be duly authorized by all

necessary corporate action and validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and

nonassessable, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of refusal

of any kind and the holders shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder

of Common Stock.

 

         (e) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the

Transaction Documents by the Company, the performance by the Company of its

obligations under the Notes and the consummation by the Company of the

transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and the issuance of the Securities

as contemplated hereby, do not and will not (i) violate or conflict with any

provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") or Bylaws

(the "Bylaws"), each as amended to date, or any Subsidiary's comparable charter

documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with

notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others

any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any

agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease

agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its

Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries'

respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any

federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or

decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable

to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of

the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are bound or affected, except, in all

cases, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration,

cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate,

have a Material Adverse Effect (other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or

(iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws)). Neither the Company

nor any of its Subsidiaries is required under federal, state, foreign or local

law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or

make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order

for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under the

Transaction Documents or issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the

terms hereof (other than any filings, consents and approvals which may be

required to be made by the Company under applicable state and federal securities

laws, rules or regulations or any registration provisions provided in the

Registration Rights Agreement).

 

         (f) Commission Documents, Financial Statements. The Common Stock of the

Company is currently listed on the OTC:BB and will be registered pursuant to

Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the

Commission pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (all of

the foregoing including filings incorporated by reference therein being referred

to herein as the "Commission Documents"). Any form 10-QSB and Form 10-KSB

 

NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

PAGE 4

<PAGE>

 

filings to be made by the Company will not contain any untrue statement of a

material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances

under which they were made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, the

financial statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents

complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting

requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission or other

applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto. Such financial statements

have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles

("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i)

as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto

or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not

include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present

in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its

Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash

flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements,

to normal year-end audit adjustments).

 

         (g) Subsidiaries. Schedule 2.1(g) hereto sets forth each Subsidiary of

the Company, showing the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and

showing the percentage of each person's ownership of the outstanding stock or

other interests of such Subsidiary. For the purposes of this Agreement,

"Subsidiary" shall mean any corporation or other entity of which at least a

majority of the securities or other ownership interest having ordinary voting

power (absolutely or contingently) for the election of directors or other

persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or

indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other Subsidiaries. All of the

outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary have been duly authorized

and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable. Except as set forth on

Schedule 2.1(g) hereto, there are no outstanding preemptive, conversion or other

rights, options, warrants or agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any

Subsidiary for the purchase or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any

Subsidiary or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or

evidencing the rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Neither

the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or

otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the

capital stock of any Subsidiary or any convertible securities, rights, warrants

or options of the type described in the preceding sentence except as set forth

on Schedule 2.1(g) hereto. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is party to,

nor has any knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of

any shares of the capital stock of any Subsidiary.

 

         (h) No Material Adverse Change. Since June 30, 2005, the Company has

not experienced or suffered any Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed on

Schedule 2.1(h) hereto.

 

         (i) No Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(i)

hereto, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any

liabilities, obligations, claims or losses (whether liquidated or unliquidated,

secured or unsecured, absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) other than

those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company's or its Subsidiaries

respective businesses or which, individually or in the aggregate, are not

reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

<PAGE>

 

         (j) No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances. Since June 30, 2005, except

as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(j) hereto, no event or circumstance has occurred or

exists with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective

businesses, properties, prospects, operations or financial condition, which,

under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or

announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or

disclosed.

 

         (k) Indebtedness. Schedule 2.1(k) hereto sets forth as of the date

hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any

Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the

purposes of this Agreement, "Indebtedness" shall mean (a) any liabilities for

borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $100,000 (other than trade accounts

payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties,

endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of

others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company's

balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of

negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the

ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value of any lease payments in

excess of $25,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with

GAAP. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any

Indebtedness.

 

         (l) Title to Assets. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has good

and valid title to all of its real and personal property reflected in the

Commission Documents, free and clear of any mortgages, pledges, charges, liens,

security interests or other encumbrances, except for those indicated on Schedule

2.1(l) hereto or such that, individually or in the aggregate, do not cause a

Material Adverse Effect. Any leases of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries

are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect.

 

         (m) Actions Pending. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation,

arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending

or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any

Subsidiary which questions the validity of this Agreement or any of the other

Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby

or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Except as set

forth in the Commission Documents or on Schedule 2.1(m) hereto, there is no

action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution

proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,

threatened against or involving the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their

respective properties or assets, which individually or in the aggregate, would

reasonably be expected, if adversely determined, to have a Material Adverse

Effect. There are no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or

decrees of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against the

Company or any Subsidiary or any officers or directors of the Company or

Subsidiary in their capacities as such, which individually or in the aggregate,

could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

         (n) Compliance with Law. The business of the Company and the

Subsidiaries has been and is presently being conducted in accordance with all

applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations and

ordinances, except as set forth in the Commission Documents or on Schedule

2.1(n) hereto or such that, individually or in the aggregate, the noncompliance

therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have all franchises, permits, licenses,

consents and

 

NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

PAGE 6

<PAGE>

 

other governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals necessary for the

conduct of its business as now being conducted by it unless the failure to

possess such franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or

regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could

not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

         (o) Taxes. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries has accurately

prepared and filed all federal, state and other tax returns required by law to

be filed by it, has paid or made provisions for the payment of all taxes shown

to be due and all additional assessments, and adequate provisions have been and

are reflected in the financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries

for all current taxes and other charges to which the Company or any Subsidiary

is subject and which are not currently due and payable. Except as disclosed on

Schedule 2.1(o) hereto or in the Commission Documents, none of the federal

income tax returns of the Company or any Subsidiary have been audited by the

Internal Revenue Service. The Company has no knowledge of any additional

assessments, adjustments or contingent tax liability (whether federal or state)

of any nature whatsoever, whether pending or threatened against the Company or

any Subsidiary for any period, nor of any basis for any such assessment,

adjustment or contingency.

 

         (p) Certain Fees. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(p) hereto, the

Company has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any

brokerage or investment banking fees, commissions, finders' structuring fees,

financial advisory fees or other similar fees in connection with the Transaction

Documents.

 

         (q) Disclosure. Except for the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement, the Company confirms that neither it nor any other person acting on

its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with

any information that constitutes or might constitute material, nonpublic

information. To the best of the Company's knowledge, neither this Agreement or

the Schedules hereto nor any other documents, certificates or instruments

furnished to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contain any

untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary

in order to make the statements made herein or therein, in the light of the

circumstances under which they were made herein or therein, not misleading.

 

         (r) Operation of Business. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(r)

hereto, the Company and each of the Subsidiaries owns or possesses the rights to

all patents, trademarks, domain names (whether or not registered) and any

patentable improvements or copyrightable derivative works thereof, websites and

intellectual property rights relating thereto, service marks, trade names,

copyrights, licenses and authorizations which are necessary for the conduct of

its business as now conducted without any conflict with the rights of others.
