DANIA BEACH, Fla., June 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Vapor Corp. (OTCQB: VPCOD) (the "Company"), a U.S.-based distributor and retailer of vaporizers, e-liquids, e-cigarettes and e-hookahs, announced today that the Series A Warrant Standstill Agreements (the "Amended Standstill Agreements") have been amended and restated to permit the repurchase or exchange of the Series A Warrants in certain additional circumstances. These circumstances include the repurchase of the Series A Warrants below a certain price per warrant and pursuant to the terms of the recently announced exchange offer for the Series A Warrants. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Amended Standstill Agreements, the Holders agreed in certain circumstance to receive only common stock (and not cash) pursuant to an exercise pursuant to Section 1(d) of their Series A Warrants. Those circumstances include if the Company is deemed not to meet the "Equity Conditions" of the Series A Warrants because of the failure of the closing price of the Company common stock to be at or above $0.01 per share. More than 85% of the Series A Warrants are subject to the Amended Standstill Agreement.
In addition, the Company announced today that it had repurchased in a negotiated transaction 2,835,560 Series A Warrants in exchange for $0.25 per Series A Warrant and a warrant to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. Through this repurchase, the Company expects to save an additional $3.1 million in potential payment obligations to the former holders of these Series A Warrants.
