WARRANT REPURCHASE AGREEMENT
Exhibit 1.2
This Warrant Repurchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August August 9, 2022 by and between Tidewater Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Banyan Overseas Limited, a limited company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Seller”). Each of the Company and the Seller are hereinafter individually referred to as a “party” and collectively referred to as the “parties.”
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS
A. The Seller owns 8,100,000 warrants dated April 22, 2022 (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 8,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) issued in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement dated April 22, 2022 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”). The Warrants were issued to the Seller in connection with the closing of the acquisition by the Company of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Tidewater Pacific Offshore Holdings Limited (formerly known as Swire Pacific Offshore Holdings Limited), a limited company organized under the laws of Bermuda and then wholly-owned subsidiary of the Seller (“TOHL”), pursuant to that certain Share Purchase Agreement, as amended from time to time, dated March 9, 2022, by and among the Company, the Seller and TOHL.
B. Pursuant to Section 2.1(c) of that certain Registration Rights Agreement, by and between the Company and Seller dated as of April 22, 2022, and amended as of June 27, 2022 (as amended, the “RR Agreement”), the Seller has requested that the Company execute an underwritten offering of all or a portion of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the RR Agreement) (a “Shelf Takedown”).
C. After consultation with underwriters in connection with the proposed Shelf Takedown, pursuant to Section 2.2(d) of the RR Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company would, instead of a Shelf Takedown of Registrable Securities, issue shares of Common Stock in an underwritten public offering on terms set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “Offering”) pursuant to an underwriting agreement, executed concurrently with this Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. LLC (the “Underwriter”) and a registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and use the proceeds thereof, net of Offering Expenses (as defined below) in accordance with the terms hereof, to repurchase from the Seller that number of Warrants that are exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock so issued and sold in the Offering (the “Repurchased Warrants”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (such mutual agreement to purchase, transfer and sell the Repurchased Warrants being herein referred to as the “Repurchase”).
AGREEMENT
In consideration of the premises and of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:
|
1. |
Purchase and Sale. |
1.1 Purchase of Repurchased Warrants. The Seller hereby irrevocably agrees to sell, assign and transfer the Repurchased Warrants to the Company, and the Company irrevocably agrees to purchase the Repurchased Warrants from the Seller, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement. At the Closing (as defined in Section 1.4) and at each Option Closing (as defined in Section 1.5), in full consideration of the Repurchase of the Repurchased Warrants sold at such closing, the Company shall pay to the Seller for each such Repurchased Warrant cash via wire transfer in “same-day” funds an amount equal to the Purchase Price with respect to such Repurchased Warrant. “Purchase Price” means, with respect to a Repurchased Warrant that corresponds to (a) a Firm Share (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement) sold to the public in the Offering, (i) the offering price per Firm Share sold to the public in the Offering less (ii) an amount equal to (1) the Offering Expenses with respect to the sale of such Firm Shares divided by (2) the number of Firm Shares sold in the Offering, and (b) an Additional Share (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement) sold to the public in the Offering, (i) the offering price per Additional Share sold to the public in the Offering less (ii) an amount equal to (1) the Offering Expenses with respect to the sale of such Additional Shares divided by (2) the number of Additional Shares sold in the Offering. “Offering Expenses” means all underwriting fees, discounts and selling commissions or broker or similar commissions or fees, and transfer taxes allocable to the Offering.
1.2 Delivery of Warrants in Escrow to Warrant Agent. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Seller shall deliver the number of Warrants equal to the maximum number of Repurchased Warrants based on the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable in the Offering (i.e., the sum of the number of Firm Shares (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) and Additional Shares (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) (the “Escrowed Warrants”) to the Warrant Agent to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of an escrow agreement by and among the Seller, the Company and the Warrant Agent, dated as of the date hereof (the “Escrow Agreement”).
1.3 No Exercise or Disposal of Warrants. From and after the date hereof until the earlier to occur of (a) the expiration of the Option Period (as defined in Section 1.5) and (b) termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Seller agrees not to, directly or indirectly, (i) exercise the Escrowed Warrants in accordance with their terms and/or (ii) sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, make gifts of or in any manner whatsoever dispose of or encumber any of the Escrowed Warrants, in each case without the prior written consent of the Company.
1.4 Closing.
(a) The closing of the Repurchases contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) is expressly conditioned on the delivery of each deliverable set forth in Section 1.4(b) and shall occur immediately following the consummation of the Offering in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, including the Company’s receipt of the aggregate proceeds from the Offering, net of applicable Offering Expenses. For greater certainty all references to the consummation of the Offering contained in this Section 1.4 do not require the exercise by the Underwriter of any Option.
(b) At the Closing:
(i) Seller shall cause the Warrant Agent to release from escrow, transfer and deliver to the Company for cancellation the number of the Repurchased Warrants that are exercisable for the number of Firm Shares and Additional Shares issued and sold in the Offering on or prior to such date by delivering to the Company and the Warrant Agent the instructions set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Upon such transfer and delivery to the Company, the Repurchased Warrants so transferred shall terminate and no longer be of any force or effect.
(ii) The Company shall pay to the Seller the aggregate Purchase Price for such Repurchased Warrants in cash via wire transfer in “same-day” funds.
1.5 Option Closing.
(a) If the Underwriter timely elects to exercise its option (the “Option”) under the Underwriting Agreement to purchase Additional Shares within 30 days after the date of the Prospectus (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement) (the “Option Period”), there shall be an additional closing date (an “Option Closing”), which is expressly conditioned on the delivery of each deliverable set forth in Section 1.5(b) and shall occur immediately upon consummation of an Option, including the Company’s receipt of the aggregate proceeds from the sale of such Additional Shares pursuant to such Option, net of any Offering Expenses incurred with respect to the sale of such Additional Shares pursuant to such Option.
(b) At the Option Closing:
(i) Seller shall cause the Warrant Agent to release from escrow, transfer and deliver to the Company for cancellation the number of the Repurchased Warrants that are exercisable for the number of Additional Shares issued and sold in the Option on or prior to such date by delivering to the Company and Warrant Agent the instructions set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Upon such transfer and delivery to the Company, the Repurchased Warrants so transferred shall terminate and no longer be of any force or effect.
(ii) The Company shall (1) pay to the Seller the aggregate Purchase Price for such Repurchased Warrants in cash via wire transfer in “same-day” funds, and (2) deliver to the Seller the certificate contemplated in Section 5.2 with respect to such Repurchased Warrants.
1.6 Seller’s Obligation to Close. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Seller, the Seller shall have no obligation to complete the Closing or consummate any Repurchase if the Offering is consummated on terms that would result in a lower aggregate Purchase Price than is contemplated by Schedule I hereto.
1.7 Release From Escrow. Upon the earliest to occur of (such occurrence, an “Escrow Termination Event”) (a) termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) termination of the Underwriting Agreement in accordance with its terms, (c) expiration of the Option Period, and (d) notification after the Closing by the Underwriter that it will not exercise the Option, any Escrowed Warrants then held in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and not previously repurchased by the Company in a Closing or Option Closing shall be released from escrow and returned to Seller in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. To effect such release, upon the occurrence of an Escrow Termination Event, Seller may deliver written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release and transfer to Seller any Escrowed Warrants then held in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and not previously repurchased by the Company in a Closing or Option Closing. Such instruction shall be sufficient, in and of itself, to cause the Escrow Agent to so release and transfer such Escrowed Warrants.

The Company shall promptly notify Seller in writing of any (i) amendment of, or waiver or failure to enforce any right of the Company under, the Underwriting Agreement, and (ii) event, action, fact or circumstance the existence, occurrence or taking of which has had or could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on, delay the closing of, or result in the failure of any condition to the closing of, the Offering under the Underwriting Agreement or the Closing or any Option Closing under this Agreement.

6.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any purported assignment in violation of this Section shall be null and void.
6.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute the same instrument.

(a) Each party hereto acknowledges that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that each and every one of the covenants or agreements in this Agreement, including any covenants or agreements that require actions to be taken following the Closing, are not performed in accordance with their terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching party shall have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically each and every one of the terms and provisions hereof. Each party hereto agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.
(b) All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.

6.8 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.
(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of law principles that would require application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, in the event (but only in the event) that the Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware, solely and specifically for any action, proceeding or investigation in any court or before any governmental authority (“Litigation”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any such Litigation, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 5.7, that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the Litigation in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Litigation is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any Litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
(b) Each of the parties expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the laws of the State of Delaware and of the United States of America; provided that consent by each of the parties to jurisdiction and service contained in this Section 6.8 is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 6.8 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to said courts or in the State of Delaware other than for such purpose.
6.9 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, shall be solely responsible for their respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby whether or not Closing shall have occurred; provided, however, that Seller shall be responsible (and, if applicable, reimburse the Company) for all Offering Expenses, and shall not be responsible for any out of pocket expenses incident to the Company’s performance under or compliance with the RR Agreement to effect the Offering, including, without limitation, all registration, filing, securities exchange listing and NYSE fees, all registration, filing, qualification and other fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, fees of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, fees of transfer agents and registrars, all word processing, duplicating and printing expenses, the fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, including the expenses of any special audits or “comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance, and fees of the Company’s legal counsel and accounting advisors in connection therewith.
6.10 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.
6.11 Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in this Agreement, no person or entity shall be a third-party beneficiary of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by any party.
6.12 Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement shall automatically, without any further action by any party hereto, terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier to occur of: (a) August 19, 2022, if the Closing Date (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) shall not have occurred on or prior to such date; and (b) at the election of Seller by written notice to the Company if the obligation of Seller to consummate the Closing shall have lapsed in accordance with Section 1.6; provided, however, that no such termination shall relieve any party hereto from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement and, provided, further, that the obligations of the parties set forth in Section 1.7 and Section 6 hereof shall survive any such termination and shall be enforceable hereunder. The parties may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing by mutual written consent.
6.13 Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The word “or” shall be disjunctive but not exclusive.
