Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive AgreementOn November 6, 2014, Vaporin, Inc. (“Vaporin”) entered into a binding term sheet
(the “Term Sheet”) related to a proposed merger with Vapor Corp. (“Vapor”)
(“Vapor”, and together with Vaporin, the “Parties”) and Vapor entered into a financing transaction with certain third parties. Vapor will be the surviving company.

As consideration for the merger, the Term Sheet provides that the stockholders of Vaporin will receive the number of shares of Vapor’s common stock such that the former Vaporin stockholders will collectively own 45.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the combined company following consummation of the merger, subject to any adjustments to the exchange ratio which would be necessary to permit the respective financial advisers of both the Parties to make the determination that the merger consideration is fair from a financial perspective. The Term Sheet provides that the shares of Vapor’s common stock to be issued in upon consummation of the proposed merger will be registered on a Form S-4 registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The Term Sheet also prohibits both the Parties from entering into discussions or negotiations of any kind (written or oral) with any other entity or person, perform any actions of any kind that are inconsistent in any way with the matters discussed in the Term Sheet, or entertain, solicit, or consider any offers, terms, conditions, or provisions from any other entity or person regarding any transaction involving a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of either Party, as applicable, a merger, consolidation, or recapitalization of Vapor or Vaporin, as applicable, or any similar transaction until March 31, 2015, subject to certain exceptions.

In addition to the proposed merger, the Term Sheet also provides the material terms for a series of financing transactions. The first financing is a bridge loan where Michael Brauser and Barry Honig (the “Investors”) or their affiliates will purchase $1.0 million in senior secured convertible notes and warrants to purchase shares of Vapor’s common stock. The Investors signed a binding Term Sheet on November 6, 2014 agreeing to fund the $1 million within five days. Pursuant to the merger Term Sheet, a second equity financing of $3.5 million is expected to close contingent on the closing of the merger with Vapor. The Term Sheet also contemplates that following the merger, Vapor may receive up to a total of $25.0 million in additional equity investments subject to financial covenants and performance-based metrics still to be negotiated and documented in the final definitive agreements.

The merger Term Sheet further provides that the merger agreement and financings will include certain customary conditions to closing, including that the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement to be entered into shall be subject to, among other things, (i) the receipt by each of the Parties of an independent fairness issued by a separate independent investment bank which provides a favorable opinion regarding the financial terms and conditions of the proposed merger; (ii) satisfactory completion of due diligence by each of the Parties; (iii) the Registration Statement being declared effective by the Commission and no stop orders from any regulatory authority being in place; (iv) the receipt of approval by the stockholders of the Parties to the merger and merger agreement; and (v) the receipt by both Parties of all required regulatory approvals, including from The NASDAQ Stock Market.

The foregoing summary of the Term Sheet is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Term Sheet, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated by reference herein.
