This Form 8-K and other reports filed by the Registrant from time to time with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the "Filings") contain
forward looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and

Filings the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "future",

of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by the Registrant. Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

      Tix Corporation (the "Company") has been engaged in a private equity
financing pursuant to which it was authorized to raise up to $1 million. As of
July 11, 2006, the financing is now closed. The Company has raised gross
proceeds of $995,000. The placement was a sale of units at $0.25 per unit. Each
unit consists of a share of restricted common stock and a warrant to purchase
one-half a share of common stock for $.50 per share. The warrants will be
exercisable for two years from issuance. Therefore, a total of 3,980,000 shares
were sold and warrants to purchase 1,990,000 shares were issued.

      Each investor qualified as an "accredited investor" as that term is
defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The following conditions were
all met with respect to this transaction: (1) the Company did not advertise this
issuance in any public medium or forum, (2) the Company did not solicit any
investors with respect to this issuance, (3) the Company did not publicize any
portion of the purchase or sale of the shares issued and (4) none of the shares
issued were offered in conjunction with any public offering. There are no
material relationships between the Company, the investors or their respective
affiliates.
