Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 11, 2014, the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and former officers entered into a restructuring agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) with Consilium Corporate Recovery Master Fund, Ltd. (the "Lender"). The Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries had entered into previous loan transactions with Lender, dated December 21, 2012 and May 9, 2013, respectively, as amended to date (collectively, the "Previous Loans"). As of the date of the Restructuring Agreement, the Company and its affiliates were obligated to Lender under the Previous Loans in the aggregate principal amount of $6,922,212 (including capitalized interest) (the “Obligations”). As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on May 12, 2014, we received written notice from Lender on May 6, 2014 of certain events of defaults under the Previous Loans and subsequently entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lender (the “Forbearance Agreement”).
 
Under the Previous Loans, the Company pledged certain of its assets to Lender, including (i) a second priority security interest in the real and personal property constituting the distillery own by Panache Distillery, LLC, (ii) a security interest in its membership interests in Panache, LLC, Panache USA, LLC, Alibi NYC, LLC, Alchemy International, LLC and Panache Distillery, LLC, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2013, (iii) trademarks held by its subsidiaries Alibi NYC, LLC and Alchemy International, LLC pursuant to a Trademark Security Agreement and (iv) its depository account, pursuant to a Pledge and Assignment of Depository Account. The Previous Loans were also secured by certain stock pledge agreements with James Dale, Agata Podedworny, and Sjoerd de Jong, principal stockholders of the Company and former officers and directors of the Company (the “Shareholders”), who pledged an aggregate of 17,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as collateral.
 
In connection with the Restructuring Agreement, in consideration for the cancellation of approximately $1,164,000 principal amount of Obligations, the Shareholders agreed to transfer an aggregate of 16,629,876 shares of the Company’s common stock held by such Shareholders to the Lender or its designated assignee. In addition, the Shareholders agreed to the cancellation of warrants to purchase an aggregate 1,200,000 shares of Company common stock held by them. In connection with such transactions, Lender terminated various stock pledge and security agreements it had entered into with the Shareholders. As additional consideration for entering into the transactions associated with the Restructuring Agreement, an affiliate of the Lender was issued three-year warrants to purchase 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at $0.15 per share, vesting over a two-year period. To effectuate the foregoing stock transfers and warrant terminations with the Shareholders, the Lender, the Company and the Shareholders entered into Stock Transfer Agreements and Warrant Termination Agreements.
 
With respect to the modification of the Previous Loans, the Company entered into a loan modification agreement (the “Loan Modification Agreement”) with Lender pursuant to which, in addition to the reduction of the amount of the Obligations set forth above, Lender waived all Existing Defaults (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement), and reduced the interest rate of the Obligations to 4% per annum until December 31, 2015, which interest shall be compounded, capitalized and added to the unpaid principal amount of the Obligations quarterly. After December 31, 2015, the Obligations shall bear interest at 10% per annum, payable as prescribed under the Previous Loans. In addition, the Lender terminated a stock pledge and security agreement with MIS Beverage Holdings, LLC, a principal stockholder, thereby releasing 2,000,000 shares of common stock as collateral under the Previous Loans and the Company authorized the Lender to record and otherwise perfect its security interest in the Company’s distillery property. In connection with such security interest, the Lender and the Company’s Panache Distillery, LLC subsidiary entered into a subordination agreement with the holders of the first mortgage on the distillery property setting forth the respective rights and obligations of such lenders with respect to such security interests.

As part of the transactions contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement, the Shareholders ratified their previous resignations as officers and directors of the Company. Further, James Dale agreed to assign to the Lender a promissory note held by him from the Company’s Wodka, LLC subsidiary (“Wodka) in the principal amount of $245,000 (the “Wodka Note”). The Wodka Note does not bear interest and is payable on demand only in the event all of the equity interests in Wodka or all or substantially all of the assets of Wodka are sold to a third party unaffiliated with Wodka or the Company and Wodka’s Board of Managers unanimously consent to the repayment of the Wodka Note. Further, Sjoerd de Jong entered into an agreement with Lender in connection with loans he had previously made to Wodka, LLC in the aggregate principal amount of $39,668. Such loans were memorialized in a new promissory note of Wodka (the “de Jong Note”) which does not accrue interest and is payable only at such time as the Company’s consolidated cash flow from operations on account of any fiscal quarter exceeds $79,376 and Wodka’s operating agreement is amended to allow the repayment of the de Jong Note. The Company also agreed to pay Mr. de Jong $15,000 to facilitate continuing health insurance for a six month period, which amounts were funded by Lender and added to the principal amount of the Obligations. The parties to the forgoing transactions also entered into customary release agreements.
 
The foregoing descriptions of the above-referenced agreements are intended to be summaries and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.13 and are each incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
 
Item 1.02 Termination of Material Definitive Agreement.
 
To the extent required by Item 1.02 of Form 8-K, the information contained or incorporated in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02 with respect to the termination of an aggregate 1,200,000 warrants held by former officers and directors of the Company.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information contained or incorporated in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02 with respect to the issuance of warrants to purchase 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to an affiliate of the Lender. Exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the issuance of the warrants was based on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.
 
As a result of transactions associated with the Restructuring Agreement, a change in control of the Company occurred due to the acquisition by CCRF – Panache, LLC, a designee of the Lender (“CCRF”), of 16,629,876 shares of the Company’s common stock from certain former officers and directors of the Company. The information disclosed Item 1.01, Item 1.02 and Item 3.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01.

As mentioned above, Lender’s designee acquired the 16,629,876 shares of common stock in consideration of the transactions associated with the Restructuring Agreement, including, but not limited to, agreeing to the modifications of Company indebtedness referenced herein. Control was acquired from the following individuals:
 
Name of Shareholder   Number of Shares
     
James Dale   11,930,497
Agata Podedworny   3,699,379
Sjoerd de Jong   1,000,000
 
CCRF beneficially owns approximately 61.5% of the Company’s common stock. In addition, an affiliate of the Lender holds warrants to purchase an aggregate 7,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, 1,518,000 of which are exercisable within the next sixty days. Accordingly, the Lender and its affiliates, including the personal holdings of Charles T. Cassel, a principal of the Lender and its affiliates, beneficially own 18,267,876 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 64%.
 
Except as described above, there were no arrangements or understandings among members of both the former and new control groups and their associates with respect to the election of directors of other matters.
 
As required to be disclosed by Regulation S-K Item 403(c), there are no arrangements, known to the Company, including any pledge by any person of securities of the Company or any of its parents, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) In connection with his role in the successful conclusion to the transactions associated with the Restructuring Agreement, Michael Romer, the Company’s interim President and Chief Executive Officer, was granted three-year options to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.15 per share pursuant to the Company’s 2012 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan. The options are exercisable fifty percent immediately, with the balance vesting in equal amounts every six months over a two-year period.
 
In addition, the Company granted to directors David Shara and Nicholas Hines similar options to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock each.

The Borrower and the Subordinate Lender agree that a Subordinate Loan Default shall, automatically and without further action by any party hereto, constitute a Senior Loan Default, and the Senior Lender shall have the right to exercise all rights or remedies under the Senior Loan Documents in the same manner as in the case of any other default thereunder. If the Subordinate Lender notifies the Senior Lender that any Subordinate Loan Default of which the Senior Lender has received a Default Notice has been cured or waived, as determined by the Subordinate Lender in its sole discretion, then provided that Senior Lender has not conducted, or caused to be conducted, a sale of the Property pursuant to its rights under the Senior Loan Documents, any default under the Senior Loan Documents arising solely from such Subordinate Loan Default shall be deemed cured and the Senior Loan shall be reinstated; provided, however, that the Senior Lender shall not be required to return or otherwise credit for the benefit of the Borrower any default rate interest or other payments received by the Senior Lender during such Senior Loan Default.

5.  Default Under Senior Loan Documents.

(a)           Notice of Default and Cure Rights. The Senior Lender shall deliver to the Subordinate Lender a Default Notice within three (3) Business Days after notice of the Senior Loan Default has been given to the Borrower, but only in those instances where (i) the Senior Lender actually has given notice to the Borrower or (ii) the Senior Lender is not required to provide notice to the Borrower in order to exercise its remedies available upon a Senior Loan Default; provided, that the Senior Lender shall not deliver a Default Notice (x) with respect to any Event of Default under the Senior Loan Documents other than a payment default more than 3 times in any 365 consecutive days or (y) on the basis of any Event of Default that existed as of the date of the giving of a prior Default Notice. Failure of the Senior Lender to send a Default Notice to the Subordinate Lender shall not prevent the exercise of the Senior Lender's rights and remedies under the Senior Loan Documents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the date of delivery by the Senior Lender to the Subordinate Lender of a Default Notice (or the expiration of the three (3) day period in which the Senior Lender is required to provide such Default Notice), a Standstill Period shall commence without further action by any party; provided, that no such Standstill Period shall commence if the Event of Default giving rise to the Default Notice was the basis of a previous Standstill Period which has expired. The Subordinate Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, during such Standstill Period, to cure any such Senior Loan Default; provided, however, that the Senior Lender shall be entitled, during such Standstill Period, to initiate remedies under the Senior Loan Documents without notice to or consultation with the Subordinate Lender. If the Subordinate Lender elects to cure such default, upon completion of such cure the Senior Loan Documents shall be reinstated, nunc pro tunc, and any judicial proceedings initiated against the Property shall be dismissed. Senior Lender further agrees that any non-monetary default by the Borrower that the Subordinate Lender has initiated action to cure such Borrower default but that cannot be cured within the Standstill Period will be suspended for an additional six (6) month if Subordinate Lender keeps current all payments required by the Senior Loan Documents. All amounts paid by the Subordinate Lender to the Senior Lender to cure a Senior Loan default shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Subordinate Lender pursuant to, and shall be secured by the lien of, the Subordinate Security Instrument.

(b)           Cross Default. The Borrower and the Senior Lender agree that a Senior Loan Default shall constitute a default under the Subordinate Loan Documents. If at any time the Borrower cures any Senior Loan Default to the satisfaction of the Senior Lender in its sole discretion, any default under the Subordinate Loan Documents arising from such Senior Loan Default shall be deemed cured and upon notice of same from Senior Lender to Subordinate Lender, the Subordinate Loan shall be reinstated; provided, however, that the Subordinate Lender shall not be required to return or otherwise credit for the benefit of the Borrower any default rate interest or other payments received by the Subordinate Lender during such default period. All expenses incurred by Subordinate Lender in pursuing its remedies during any default period shall be the obligation of the Borrower in accordance with the Subordinate Loan Documents.

(c)           Standstill Period and Default. For so long as a Standstill Period is in effect, and until any Senior Loan Default and/or Subordinate Loan Default giving rise to such Standstill Period has been remedied to the satisfaction of or waived by the Senior Lender:

(1)             except with respect to any equity securities received by the Subordinate Lender upon conversion or satisfaction of any part or all of the Subordinate Loans, the Subordinate Lender shall promptly deliver to the Senior Lender in the form received (except for endorsement or assignment by such Subordinate Lender where required by the Senior Lender) for application to the Senior Loan any payment, distribution, security or proceeds received with respect to the Subordinate Loans; and

(2)             the Subordinate Lender shall not take any legal action, initiate any legal proceeding, issue any demands or otherwise seek to collect on the Subordinate Notes or enforce its rights under the Subordinate Security Instrument other than (a) filing a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Subordinate Loans, (b) filing any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to a motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims under the Subordinate Loan Agreements, (c) filing any pleadings, objections motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Borrower arising under the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, the filing and/or voting proofs of claim, and voting to confirm a plan of reorganization, in connection with a legal proceeding) or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not inconsistent with this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the statute of limitations with respect to any claim that the Subordinate Lender may have against the Borrower but that cannot be brought or prosecuted as a result of the Standstill Period shall be tolled for and extended by the duration of the Standstill Period.

6. Conflict. The Borrower, the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender each agree that, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Senior Loan Documents, the Subordinate Loan Documents and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control as to (a) the relative priority of the security interests of the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender in the Property; (b) the timing of the exercise of remedies by the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender under the Senior Security Instrument and the Subordinate Security Instrument, respectively; and (c) solely as between the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender, the notice requirements, cure rights, and the other rights and obligations to which the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender have agreed as expressly provided in this Agreement. Borrower acknowledges that the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not, and shall not be deemed to (i) extend Borrower's time to cure any Senior Loan Default or Subordinate Loan Default, as the case may be, (ii) give the Borrower the right to notice of any Senior Loan Default or Subordinate Loan Default, as the case may be, or (iii) create any other right or benefit for Borrower as against Senior Lender or Subordinate Lender.

7. Rights and Obligations of the Subordinate Lender Under the Subordinate Loan Documents and Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents.

Subject to each of the other terms of this Agreement, all of the following provisions shall supersede any provisions of the Subordinate Loan Documents and the Senior Loan Documents covering the same subject matter:

(a)           Protection of Security Interest. The Senior Lender shall not, without the prior written consent of the Subordinate Lender in each instance, take any action which has the effect of increasing the indebtedness in excess of $4,500,000, or secured by the Senior Loan Documents, except that the Senior Lender shall have the right (i) to advance funds to cure Senior Loan Defaults or Subordinate Loan Defaults pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 above, and (ii) to advance funds pursuant to the Senior Security Instrument for the purpose of paying real estate taxes and insurance premiums, making necessary repairs to the Property and curing other defaults by the Borrower under the Senior Loan Documents; provided, that the total advances under clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate (collectively, the “Permitted Overages”), and, in each case, such Permitted Overages shall increase the amount of the Senior Loan notwithstanding the maximum amount set forth above.

(b)           Condemnation or Casualty. In the event of (i) a taking or threatened taking by condemnation or other exercise of eminent domain of all or a portion of the Property (collectively, a "Taking"), or (ii) the occurrence of a fire or other casualty resulting in damage to all or a portion of the Property (collectively, a "Casualty"), at any time or times when the Senior Security Instrument remains a lien on the Property the following provisions shall apply:

(1)             The Subordinate Lender hereby agrees that its rights (under the Subordinate Loan Documents or otherwise) to participate in any proceeding or action relating to a Taking and/or a Casualty, or to participate or join in any settlement of, or to adjust, any claims resulting from a Taking or a Casualty shall be and remain subordinate in all respects to the Senior Lender's rights under the Senior Loan Documents with respect thereto, and the Subordinate Lender shall be bound by any settlement or adjustment of a claim resulting from a Taking or a Casualty made by the Senior Lender;

(2)             All proceeds received or to be received on account of a Taking or a
Casualty, or both, shall be applied (either to payment of the costs and expenses of repair and restoration and/or to payment of the Senior Loan) in the manner determined by the Senior Lender in its sole discretion; provided, however, that if the Senior Lender elects to apply such proceeds to payment of the principal of, interest on and other amounts payable under the Senior Loan, any proceeds remaining after the satisfaction in full of the principal of, interest on and other amounts payable under the Senior Loan shall be paid to, and may be applied by, the Subordinate Lender in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Subordinate Loan Documents; provided however, the Senior Lender agrees to consult with the Subordinate Lender in determining the application of Casualty proceeds; provided further however, that in the event of any disagreement between the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender over the application of Casualty proceeds, the decision of the Senior Lender, in its reasonable discretion, shall prevail; and
 
(3)             Both the Senior Lender and the Subordinate Lender agree to execute and deliver, at no expense to the other, all documents, instruments, agreements or further assurances required to effectuate the provisions of this subsection.

 
6

 
 
(c)           No Modification of Senior Loan Documents. The Borrower and the Senior Lender each agree that, while this Agreement is in effect, they will not, without the prior written consent of the Subordinate Lender in each instance make any other modification which would (i) increase the interest rates on the Senior Debt to an amount greater than 6% per annum above rates as in effect on the date hereof, (ii) change the final maturity date of the Senior Loans to a date later than the originally scheduled maturity date of the Subordinate Loan, (iii) increase the principal amount of the Senior Loan in excess of the amount provided for in this Agreement, (iv) modify or add a covenant or event of default under the Senior Loan Documents which directly restricts the Borrower from making payments under the Subordinate Loan Documents which would otherwise be permitted hereunder and under the Senior Loan Documents as of the date hereof, or (v) modify the Senior Loan Documents in a manner which would materially and adversely affect the Subordinate Lender except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

(d)           No Modification of Subordinate Loan Documents. The Borrower and the Subordinate Lender each agree that, until the principal of, interest on and all other amounts payable under the Senior Loan Documents have been paid in full, they will not, without the prior written consent of the Senior Lender in each instance (i) take any action which would result in an increase in the total indebtedness other than the receipt of payment in kind interest, or (ii) make any other modification to the Subordinate Loan Documents which would materially and adversely affect the Senior Lender.

(e)           Refinance of the Senior Loans by Senior Lender. The Senior Lender reserves the right to refinance the existing balance of the Senior Loan and to make future advances to the Borrower from time to time which, when added to the principal balance then outstanding under the Senior Loan shall not exceed a total of $4,500,000, provided that any Permitted Overages shall not be counted in determining the amount of the Senior Loan under this section for purposes of considering whether the $4,500,000 maximum has been reached. The Senior Lender agrees to provide to the Subordinate Lender prompt notice in writing of each such future advance.

(f)           Buyout of Senior Loan. On and after the delivery of a Default Notice and so long as a Standstill Period is in effect, the Subordinate Lender will have the right at any time to purchase the Senior Loan from the Senior Lender for an amount equal to all outstanding obligations under the Senior Loan Documents at such time.

8. Dissolution, Liquidation, Reorganization or Bankruptcy.
 
(a)           In the event of any Proceeding involving the Borrower and/ or its Affiliate during the continuance of any Senior Loan Default or Subordinated Loan Default:
 
(i)              the Senior Loan shall be paid in full before the Subordinated Lender shall be entitled to receive any payment on account of any Subordinated Loan; and
 
(ii)            except as provided in Section 5(c) above, any payment or distribution of assets of such Person of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Subordinated Lender would be entitled except for these provisions, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution directly to the Senior Lender, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of the Senior Loan remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to the holders of such Senior Loan. The Subordinated Lender irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor-in-possession, receiver, trustee or agent or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise deliver all such payments or distributions to the Senior Lender.
 
 
7

 
 
(b)           The Subordinated Lender agrees, in connection with any such Proceeding, that it will not take any action or vote in any way so as to (i) contest the validity of the liens securing the Senior Note, (ii) contest the enforceability of any of the Senior Loan Documents, (iii) contest the Senior Lender’s priority position over the Subordinated Lender created by this Agreement or (iv) except as permitted by Section 5(c) above, take any position or action which would have directly or indirectly any of the following effects: (A) extension of the final maturity of and/or forgiveness, reduction or cram-down of the Senior Loan or deferral of any required payment in respect of Senior Loan, (B) opposing or objecting to initiatives or claims by the Senior Lender for adequate protection or relief from the automatic stay, use of cash collateral or super-priority expense of administration for failure of adequate protection, (C) challenging in any respect treatment of the Senior Loan as a first priority perfected fully secured claim, (D) blocking current payment of any obligation in respect of Senior Indebtedness, (E) assenting to or supporting any requested extension of the exclusivity period for the submission by the Borrower of any plan of reorganization or liquidation under the Bankruptcy Code unless such extension is assented to or supported by the Senior Lender; and (F) opposing or objecting to any sale or lease of any property that has been consented to by the holders of Senior Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subordinate Lender shall be entitled to replacement or supplemental liens to the same extent (and subordinated on the same basis as under this Agreement) in the event the Senior Lender receives replacement or supplemental liens as adequate protection.
 
8. Default by the Subordinate Lender or Senior Lender. If the Subordinate Lender or Senior Lender defaults in performing or observing any of the terms, covenants or conditions to be performed or observed by it under this Agreement, the other shall have the right to all available legal and equitable relief.

9. Notices. Each notice, request, demand, consent, approval or other communication (hereinafter in this Section referred to collectively as "notices" and referred to singly as a ''notice'') which the Senior Lender or the Subordinate Lender is required or permitted to give to the other party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly and sufficiently given if (a) personally delivered with proof of delivery thereof (any notice so delivered shall be deemed to have been received at the time so delivered), or (b) sent by Federal Express (or other similar national overnight courier) designating early morning delivery (any notice so delivered shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day following receipt by the courier), or (c) sent by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, at a post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service (any notice so sent shall be deemed to have been received two days after mailing in the United States), addressed to the respective parties as follows:

WARRANT AGREEMENT

This WARRANT AGREEMENT (this “Warrant Agreement” or “Agreement”), dated as of June 11, 2014, is between PANACHE BEVERAGE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and CONSILIUM INVESTMENT PARTNERS, LLC (“Holder”) (the Company and the Holder are sometimes referred to as the “parties” collectively and as a “party” individually).

RECITALS:
 
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Restructuring Agreement, dated as of June 11, 2014 (the “Restructuring Agreement”), by and among the Panache Parties, Lender and the Shareholders (each as defined in the Restructuring Agreement”), the Company agreed to issue to the Holder, warrants (the “Warrants”) in certificated form to purchase 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) exercisable at any time up until June 11, 2017 at 5:30 pm for a stipulated price of $0.15 per Share. The “Warrants” are also referred to as the “Warrants” and the “Warrant Shares” or the “Shares” are also referred to as the “Warrant Securities”;
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the agreements set forth in the Restructuring Agreement and this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
1.  Grant and Period.
 
The above recitals are true and correct. This Agreement, relating to the purchase of the Warrant Securities, is entered into pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement.
 
Pursuant to this Agreement, the Holder is hereby granted the right to purchase from the Company up to the aggregate sum of 2,500,000 Warrant Shares. The Holder’s right to purchase the Warrant Securities or Warrant Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate at 5:30 p.m., Eastern Time on June 11, 2017 (the “Expiration Time”). The initial purchase price per Warrant Share or for each of the Warrant Securities (subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6) shall be $0.15 each (the “Warrant Price”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 
1

 
 
Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Warrant Shares shall bear the same terms and conditions as designated in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and any amendments thereto, and the Holder shall not be provided any registration rights and the Company shall not have any obligation to register the Warrants or the Warrant Shares (or Warrant Securities) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

2.  Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrants; Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Time of Exercise. The Warrants that become exercisable pursuant to this Agreement may be exercised in whole or in part at any time on or before the Expiration Time. The Warrants shall vest according to the following Vesting Schedule (the "Vesting Schedule"):

(i) 625,000 Warrants on December 11, 2014;
(ii) 625,000 Warrants on June 11, 2015;
(iii) 625,000 Warrants on December 11, 2015; and
(iv) 625,000 Warrants on June 11, 2016.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a "Significant Transaction", all of the Warrants shall immediately vest. A “Significant Transaction” shall mean (i) any transaction which Company and/or its subsidiaries or Affiliates enter into that values in the aggregate Company’s business and any of its respective equity interests in its subsidiaries at a composite enterprise value equal to or greater than $30,000,000 as determined by Lender in its sole discretion (absent manifest error). In said event Company at Lender’s option shall repay the Obligations (as defined in the Restructuring Agreement) within 15 business days following consummation of said transaction, if said transaction results in the Company receiving cash proceeds of at least $20,000,000; (ii) any transaction which involves a sale by the Company’s Wodka, LLC subsidiary of one or more of its trademarks which results in a valuation of said company of at least $30,000,000 and a distribution to its members in any twelve (12) month period of at least $15,000,000
 
(b) Method of Exercise. Subject to the Vesting Schedule, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of the Warrant Certificate (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Company, and by the payment to the Company of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which the Warrants is then being exercised, payable at such Holder’s election by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.
 
(c) Intentionally Omitted.

(d) Issuance of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of the Warrants in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the Warrant Certificate, (i) certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) business days after the exercise notice is delivered to the Company (the “Delivery Date”) and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise and (ii) unless the Warrants have expired, a new Warrant Certificate representing the number of shares of Warrant Stock, if any, with respect to which the presented Warrant Certificate shall not then have been exercised (less any amount thereof which shall have been canceled in payment or partial payment of the Warrant Price as hereinabove provided) shall also be issued to the Holder hereof at the Company’s expense within such time.

 
2

 
 
(e) Transferability of Warrants. Subject to Section 2(f) hereof, the Warrants may be transferred by a Holder only with the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. If transferred pursuant to this section, the Warrants may be transferred on the books of the Company by the Holder hereof upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate at the principal office of the Company, properly endorsed by the Holder and upon payment by the Holder of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. The Warrant Certificates are exchangeable at the principal office of the Company for Warrant Certificates to purchase the same aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant Certificate to represent the right to purchase such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder of the Warrant Certificate shall designate at the time of such exchange. All Warrant Certificates issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the date of this Agreement and shall be identical to the presented Warrant Certificate except as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant thereto.

(f)  Compliance with Securities Laws.

a. The Holder of a Warrant Certificate, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the Warrant Certificate and the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment purposes only and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of the Warrants or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon the exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. The Holder represents and warrants to the Company that the Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

b. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2(f), the Company agrees to reissue Warrant Certificates or certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until:
 
i. either (a) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (b) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (of which the Company shall not be obligated to do so) and has become effective under the Securities Act, or (c) the Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or

 
3

 
 
ii. either (a) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (b) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder as soon as is practicable, but in no event later than five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of such notice. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(f)(b), the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company.

The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(f) shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to register the Warrant Stock under the Securities Act or under any state securities act or laws. Furthermore, the Company shall not be obligated to execute or file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any state or other jurisdiction, nor shall the officers, directors and five percent (5%) or greater shareholders be required to deposit in escrow any securities of the Company owned by them or subject such securities to any form of lockup arrangement in connection with any registration of the Warrant Stock. The Company shall use its good faith reasonable efforts to cause such Warrant Stock covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities of the United States or any state thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Holder or Holders thereof to consummate the disposition of such Warrant Stock.

3. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares; Covenants.

(a) Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. The Company represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants or otherwise hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Warrant Certificates, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all liens and encumbrances created by or through the Company, other than those imposed by applicable federal or state securities laws. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the Warrants may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the Warrants a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock required to provide for the exercise of the Warrants.

 
4

 
 
(b) Covenants. The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its Certificate of Incorporation or the by-laws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Stock to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Warrant Certificates, (iii) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Company Common Stock, free and clear of any liens and encumbrances (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of the Warrants, and (iv) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Loss, Theft, Destruction of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.

4.  Effect of Reorganization, Etc.

(a) Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall with the express written consent of the Holder (i) effect a reorganization, (ii) consolidate with or merge into any other Person, or (iii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder, on the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive (from the surviving entity or the parent of the surviving entity in a reorganization, consolidation or merger), in lieu of the Warrant Stock issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger (the amount of which shall be computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which such transaction was predicated) or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised the Warrants, immediately prior thereto.

(b) Assumption of Warrant; Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer referred to in this Section 4, approved by the Holder, this Agreement shall be assumed by the surviving entity or the parent of the surviving entity (as applicable) in any such reorganization, consolidation or merger (as applicable), shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of the Warrants after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the Company of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the Person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Agreement.

 
5

 
 
5. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall with the consent of the Holder (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock issued by the Company (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Warrant Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Warrant Price then in effect. The Warrant Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 5. The number of shares of Warrant Stock that the Holder shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Warrant Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 5) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Warrant Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 5) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise (taking into account the provisions of this Section 5). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Exercise Price be less than the par value of the Common Stock.
 
6. Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.
 
(a) In the event the Company, with the consent of the Holder, shall at any time following the Original Issue Date issue any Additional Shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in Section 4 and 5, and other than in connection with the purchase or acquisition of the assets, other than cash and cash equivalents, of another Person), at a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price determined in accordance with the following formula:
 
   
Adjusted Warrant Price =
(OS x WP) + NI  
    OS+ NS  
     
Where
 
OS = Outstanding shares of Common Stock prior to the Dilutive Issuance:
   
WP = Warrant Price in effect prior to the Dilutive Issuance.
     
   
NI = Aggregate consideration received by the Company upon the Dilutive Issuance in dollars.
     
   
NS = Number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in the Dilutive Issuance.

 
6

 
 
(b) No Adjustment for Exercise of Common Stock Equivalents. No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants shall be exercisable shall be made under Section 6(a) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock that are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor) pursuant to Section 6(c).

(c) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. If at any time the Company shall issue or sell any Common Stock Equivalents, with the consent of the Holder, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the aggregate price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange plus the consideration received by the Company for issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent divided by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalent (the “Aggregate Per Common Share Price”) shall be less than the Warrant Price then in effect, or if, after any such issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall make the Aggregate Per Common Share Price be less than the Warrant Price in effect at the time of such amendment or adjustment, then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance or amendment shall be adjusted as provided in Section 6(a). No further adjustment of the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made under this Section 6(c) upon the issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights pursuant to this Section 6(c). No further adjustments of the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.

(d) Superseding Adjustment. If, at any time after any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(c) as the result of any issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, and (i) such Common Stock Equivalents, or the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalents, shall expire, and all or a portion of such or the right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a portion of such Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be, shall not have been exercised, or (ii) the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalents shall be increased, then such previous adjustment shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this Section 6(d), there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such Common Stock Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock theretofore actually issued pursuant to the previous exercise of Common Stock Equivalents or any such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and receivable therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which then remain outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such increase of the consideration per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents; whereupon a new adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made, which new adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.

 
7

 
 
7. Other Provisions applicable to Adjustments under Sections 4, 5 and 6. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect provided for in Sections 4, 5 and 6:

(a) Computation of Consideration.

(i) To the extent that any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be (1) the amount of the cash received by the Company therefor, or, (2) if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are offered by the Company for subscription, the subscription price, or, (3) if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price (in any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued dividends and without taking into account any compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company for and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof).

(ii) In connection with any merger or consolidation, with the consent of the Holder, in which the Company is the surviving corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed to or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation), the amount of consideration therefore shall be, deemed to be the fair value, as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board, of such portion of the assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as the Board may determine to be attributable to such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be.

(iii) The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by the Company for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of such warrants or other rights. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Stock Equivalents shall be the consideration received by the Company for issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the consideration paid or payable to the Company in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalents.

(iv) In the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company, with the consent of the Holder, in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or in which the previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed into or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation, or in the event of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for stock or other securities of any corporation, the Company shall be deemed to have issued a number of shares of its Common Stock for stock or securities or other property of the other corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the transaction was predicated, and for a consideration equal to the fair market value on the date of such transaction of all such stock or securities or other property of the other corporation.

 
8

 
 
(v) In the event any consideration received by the Company for any securities consists of property other than cash, the fair market value thereof at the time of issuance or as otherwise applicable shall be as determined in good faith by the Board. In the event Common Stock is issued with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section 7(a) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined in good faith by the Board.

(b) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by Section 4, 5 or 6 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of shares of Warrant Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of shares of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 5) up to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one percent (1% ) of the shares of Warrant Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 7 and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

(c) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under Sections 4, 5 and 6, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share.

(d) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.

Panache Beverage, Inc. Announces Major Developments in Business Restructuring Plan
 
NEW YORK, June 12th, 2014 — Panache Beverage Inc. (OTCQB: WDKA) (the “Company” or “Panache”) announced today that it entered into a restructuring agreement and related transactions with its senior secured lender, Consilium Corporate Recovery Master Fund, Ltd. (“Consilium”) and certain of the Company’s principal shareholders and former officers and directors (collectively, the “Shareholders”).

As part of this transaction, Consilium waived all existing defaults under the Company’s loan agreements, agreed to reduce the principal amount of indebtedness owed from approximately $6,922,212 to approximately $5,758,120 and reduced the interest rate on certain of its loans to the Company to 4% per annum until December 31, 2015, which interest shall be compounded, capitalized and added to the unpaid principal amount of the Company’s loans quarterly. After December 31, 2015, these loans shall bear interest at 10% per annum. In connection with these transactions, Consilium acquired an aggregate 16,629,876 shares from the Shareholders which had been pledged to Consilium under the Company’s loan documents, and the Shareholders further agreed to the cancellation of an aggregate 1,200,000 warrants held by them in return for Consilium’s termination of certain Pledge and Security Agreements with the Shareholders. The parties to the forgoing transactions also entered into customary release agreements.

“The cooperation of the three principals was critical not only to the future welfare of Panache but also enabled Consilium to leave the minority shareholders fully intact,” comments Charles Cassel, managing director, Consilium.

This transaction marks a major milestone for Panache having occurred less than six weeks after the initial announcement of its executive changes. “With this restructuring in place we can now focus on the future – our brand portfolio is intact, our distillery plans are on track, our business is running more efficiently and we’re actively reducing debt on the balance sheet,” explains Michael Romer, interim CEO. He continues, “We can now work collaboratively with Consilium on a strategic plan to strengthen our brands and our production capabilities. We are fortunate to have a financial partner in Consilium and will continue to work together to find the right balance to maximize Panache’s potential.”

Panache Beverage continues to focus its resources on depletion of its brands in a concentrated platform, entering into service agreements at its distillery and looking for new revenue streams.
