SECTION 3 SECURITIES AND TRADING MARKETS
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
eLEC Communications Corp. completed the private placement of 5,180,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.10 per share (Common Stock), to accredited investors (the Investors) at a price of $0.10 per share. The placement of shares was assisted by Source Capital Group, Inc., a broker dealer that acted as a finder (the Finder) in the transaction and that received a finders fee of $28,240 and warrants to purchase 282,400 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.12 per share.
We received gross proceeds from the transaction of $518,000 and net proceeds of $489,760, of which approximately $300,000 is earmarked for funding the expansion of our Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) operation and the remainder will be applied to the payment of outstanding payables. Such expansion includes working capital needed to support a trial agreement we entered into on November 6, 2006 with a WiFi company that is supplying our VoIP service to a restaurant chain with approximately 11,000 locations and to support a new wholesale services agreement with a cable carrier with approximately 200,000 homes passed that plans to launch our product under its own label on November 15, 2006 in six southern markets.
As a private placement offering to accredited investors (as such term is defined by Rule 501(a) of Regulation D), the shares issued pursuant to the offering were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws due to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D. The shares of Common Stock may not be transferred unless exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws are available. If the Company, at any time, proposes to register any of its shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (other than on Forms S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms), the Company shall at such time give reasonable notice to the Investors and the Finder specifying the form and manner and other relative facts involved in such proposed registration, and upon written request to do so, shall include in the filing of the registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission the resale by the Investors and the Finder of the privately-placed Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Finders warrants.
