The Company desires to obtain the waiver from the Holder of (i) all MoviePass Indebtedness Restrictions with respect to the MoviePass Indebtedness, (ii) all restrictions, if any, in the Transaction Documents (as defined in the November Notes) and the Transaction Documents (as defined in the August Notes) (and, together with the Exchange Agreement, the “Prior Transaction Documents”), in each case, to the issuance of up to 275,000 restricted shares of Common Stock to the Buyers pursuant to the Agreements (as defined below) (the “Waiver Shares”), (iii) any right that the holders of the November Notes may have to adjust the Conversion Price (as defined in the November Notes) pursuant to the November Notes as a result of the issuance of the Waiver Shares; and (iv) any right that the holders of the August Warrants or Exchange Warrant (collectively, the “Warrants”) may have to adjust the Exercise Price (as defined in the applicable Warrant) and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the applicable Warrant as a result of the issuance of the Waiver Shares (collectively, the “Waivers”).

 

H. Concurrently herewith, the Company is seeking to obtain the waiver of the MoviePass Indebtedness Restrictions from each other holder of August Notes and/or November Notes, as applicable, (the “Other Holders”) pursuant to agreements in substantially the form of this Agreement (other than expense reimbursement and proportional changes with respect to the aggregate principal amount of August Notes and/or November Notes, as applicable, held by the Holder as of the date hereof) (the “Other Agreements”, and together with this Agreement, the “Agreements”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the Company and the Holder agree as follows:

 

1. Waivers; Effective Time. Effective as of the time (the “Effective Time”) on which Agreements have been executed by such holders representing the Required Holders (as defined in the November Notes) and the Required Holders (as defined in the August Notes) (collectively, the “Waiver Required Holders”), subject to the irrevocable issuance of Holder Waiver Shares (as defined below) or Rights (as defined below), as applicable, to the Holder on the books and records of the Company, the Holder hereby effects the Waivers, which Waivers shall be binding on all existing and future holders of the August Notes in accordance with Section 16 of the August Notes, on all existing and future holders of the November Notes in accordance with Section 17 of the November Notes and on all existing and future holders of the August Warrants in accordance with Section 9 of the applicable Warrants.

If the Holder elects to receive Rights in lieu of the Holder Waiver Shares, no later than the second Trading Day after the Effective Time the Company shall deliver evidence to the Holder, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder, that Rights have been issued on the books and records of the Company. At the Effective Time, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of Holder Waiver Shares or the Rights, as applicable, and shall be entitled to exercise all of its rights with respect thereto, irrespective of the date the Company (or the Transfer Agent) delivers the certificate(s) evidencing the Holder Waiver Shares or the Rights, as applicable, to the Holder.

All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company or any Subsidiary is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the date hereof, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries are aware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings contemplated by the Exchange Documents. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, the Company is not in violation of the requirements of the Principal Market and has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which would reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

(h) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided the Holder or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the existence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Agreements.

All disclosure provided to the Holder regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, their businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each press release issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of this Agreement did not at the time of release contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties, liabilities, prospects, operations (including results thereof) or conditions (financial or otherwise), which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure at or before the date hereof or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed.

(a) Organization; Authority. Such Holder is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder.

 

(b) No Public Sale or Distribution. The Holder is acquiring the applicable Securities, for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof in violation of applicable securities laws, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act; provided, however, by making the representations herein, such Holder does not agree, or make any representation or warranty, to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act.

 

(c) Accredited Investor Status. The Holder is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.

 

(d) Reliance on Exemptions. The Holder understands that the Securities are being issued in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Holder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Holder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Holder to acquire the Securities.

 

(e) Information. The Holder and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the Securities that have been requested by the Holder. The Holder and its advisors, if any, have been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Securities; and (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Holder or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Holder’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein. The Holder understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. The Holder has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities.

 

 6 

 

 

(f) No Governmental Review. The Holder understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the acquisition of the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

 

(g) Transfer or Resale. The Holder understands that (i) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, (B) the Holder shall have delivered to the Company (if requested by the Company) an opinion of counsel, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that Securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, or (C) the Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurance that such Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A promulgated under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule thereto) (collectively, “Rule 144”); (ii) any sale of Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144, and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of such Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the Person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities and such pledge of the Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and the Holder effecting a pledge of the Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(h) Validity; Enforcement. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Holder and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

 

4. Right to Issue Holder Warrant Shares.

 

4.1 General. If elected by the Holder on its signature page attached hereto, at the Effective Time, the Company shall issue to the Holder rights (the “Rights”) to receive the Holder Waiver Shares (the “Reserved Shares”), which shall have such terms and conditions as set forth in this Section 4. The Company and the Holder hereby agree that no additional consideration is payable in connection with the issuance of the Rights or the exercise of the Rights.

 

 7 

 

 

4.2 Exercise of Right of Issuance of Reserved Shares. Subject to the terms hereof, the exercise of the Rights may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the date hereof by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed PDF copy of the Notice of Issuance Form annexed hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Notice of Issuance”, and the corresponding date thereof, the “Exercise Date”). Partial exercises of the Rights resulting in issuances of a portion of the total number of Reserved Shares available thereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Reserved Shares purchasable thereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Reserved Shares issued. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Reserved Shares issued and the date of such issuances. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Issuance Form within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following each exercise of the Rights issued hereunder and the issuance of a portion of the Reserved Shares pursuant thereto, the number of Reserved Shares available for issuance pursuant to the Rights issued hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated in the recitals hereof.

 

4.3 Delivery of Reserved Shares. The Reserved Shares issued hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Reserved Shares to or resale of the Reserved Shares by the Holder or (B) the Reserved Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Issuance by the date that is two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Issuance (such date, the “Share Delivery Deadline”). The Reserved Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Rights have been exercised.

 

4.4 Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Reserved Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Issuance.

 

4.5 Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Rights are outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Reserved Shares upon the exercise of the Rights. The Company further covenants that its issuance of the Rights shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Reserved Shares upon the due exercise of the Rights. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Reserved Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Reserved Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the Rights represented by this Agreement will, upon exercise of the Rights, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, Liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

4.6 Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder as set forth in this Agreement against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Reserved Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Reserved Shares upon the exercise of the Rights and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

 8 

 

 

4.7 Authorizations. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Reserved Shares for which the Rights provides for, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

4.8 Limitations on Exercise. The Company shall not effect the exercise of any Rights, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of any Rights pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties (as defined in the November Notes) shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights issued hereunder with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of the Rights beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 4.8. For purposes of this Section 4.8, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act (as defined in the November Notes). For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of the Rights without exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a Notice of Issuance from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Notice of Issuance would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 4.8, to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Notice of Issuance. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Rights, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of the Rights results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 9.9% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Rights that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Rights hereunder in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise any Rights pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4.8 to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 4.8 or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of Rights.

 

 9 

 

 

4.9 Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of the Rights, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

4.10 Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while the Rights exist: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the number of Reserved Shares issuable upon exercise of the Rights shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.10 shall become effective immediately upon the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution (provided that if the declaration of such dividend or distribution is rescinded or otherwise cancelled, then such adjustment shall be reversed upon notice to the Holder of the termination of such proposed declaration or distribution as to any unexercised portion of the Rights at the time of such rescission or cancellation) and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

4.11 Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Reserved Shares. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Deadline, either (x) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, (y) if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of a Right (a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (1) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after such Share Delivery Deadline that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock is not timely effected an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline and to which the Holder is entitled, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Exercise Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Deadline and (2) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Notice of Issuance with respect to, and retain or have returned (as the case may be) any portion of the rights that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Issuance, provided that the voiding of a Notice of Issuance shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 4.11 or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline either (A) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, (B) if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of Rights hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (II) below, and if on or after such Share Delivery Deadline the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Delivery Failure (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (I) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of Rights hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (II) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of Rights hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (x) such number of shares of Common Stock multiplied by (y) the lowest Closing Sale Price (as defined in the February Note) of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Notice of Issuance and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (II) (the “Buy-In Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the exercise of the Rights as required pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any given Delivery Failure, this Section 4.11 shall not apply to the Holder to the extent the Company has already paid such amounts in full to such Holder with respect to such Delivery Failure, as applicable, pursuant to the analogous sections of the February Securities Purchase Agreement.

4.12 Subsequent Rights Offerings. If Section 4.10 above does not apply, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Convertible Securities (as defined in the November Notes), Options (as defined in the November Notes) or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record Holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of the Rights (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record Holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

4.13 Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the Rights remain outstanding, a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the November Notes) occurs, then, upon any subsequent exercise of the Rights, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Reserved Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 4.8 on the exercise of the Right), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a Holder of one share of Common Stock. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Agreement referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

 

4.14 Notice to Allow Exercise of Right. If at any time while the Rights remain outstanding, (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all Holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the Holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that Holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise the Rights during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

 

 11 

 

 

4.15 No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. Each Right does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.

 

4.16 Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, the Rights and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon written assignment substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer of this Agreement delivered to the principal office of the Company or its designated agent. Upon such assignment and, if required, such payment, the Company shall enter into a new agreement with the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and this Agreement shall promptly be cancelled. Any Right, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new Holder for the issue of Reserved Shares without having a new agreement executed.

 

4.17 Holding Period. For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the 1933 Act, as in effect on the date hereof, it is intended that the Reserved Shares issued upon exercise of the Right shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Reserved Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, as of the Effective Time.

 

5. Limitation of Waiver. The Waivers set forth in this Agreement constitute a one-time waiver and are limited to the matters expressly waived herein and should not be construed as an indication that the Holder would be willing to agree to any future modifications to or waiver of any of the terms of any Prior Transaction Document or Convertible Security (as defined in the November Securities Purchase Agreement) issued by the Company or any modifications to or waiver of any default that may exist or occur thereunder.

 

6. Ratifications. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each of the Prior Transaction Documents is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

From and after the filing of the 8-K Filing, the Company shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) provided up to such time to the Holder by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents. In addition, effective upon the filing of the 8-K Filing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Documents or as otherwise disclosed in the 8-K Filing, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, on the one hand, and any of the Holder or any of their affiliates, on the other hand, shall terminate. Neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor the Holder shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of the Holder, to make a press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith or (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) the Holder shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the Holder (which may be granted or withheld in the Holder’s sole discretion), except as required by applicable law, the Company shall not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the name of the Holder in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise.

8. No Integration. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, any of their affiliates, or any Person acting on their behalf shall, directly or indirectly, make any offers or sales of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) or solicit any offers to buy any security or take any other actions, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Holder Waiver Shares, the Rights or the Reserved Shares under the Securities Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with such offering or any prior offerings by the Company for purposes of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

9. Listing. The Company shall maintain the listing or designation for quotation (as applicable) of all of the Holder Waiver Shares and the Reserved Shares from time to time issuable under the terms of this Agreement upon the Principal Market (subject to official notice of issuance).

The Holder understands that the Securities have been issued (or will be issued in the case of the Reserved Shares) pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

 

[NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN][THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN] REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

 

13. Removal of Legends. Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 12 above or any other legend (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) if such Securities are eligible to be sold, assigned or transferred under Rule 144 (provided that the Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Securities are eligible for sale, assignment or transfer under Rule 144, which shall not include an opinion of Buyer’s counsel), (iv) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that the Holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to the Holder, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date the Holder delivers such legended certificate representing such Securities to the Company) following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from the Holder as may be required above in this Section 13, as directed by the Holder, either: (A) provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and such Securities are Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the Holder, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee (the date by which such credit is so required to be made to the balance account of the Holder’s or the Holder’s designee with DTC or such certificate is required to be delivered to the Holder pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”, and the date such shares of Common Stock are actually delivered without restrictive legend to the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC, as applicable, the “Share Delivery Date”). The Company shall be responsible for any transfer agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance herewith.

 

 14 

 

 

14. Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In. If the Company fails to, for any reason or for no reason, to issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder (or its designee) by the Required Delivery Date, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, a certificate for the number of Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) to which the Holder is entitled and register such Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by the Holder pursuant to Section 13 above or (II) if a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering the resale of the Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by the Holder pursuant to Section 13 above (the “Unavailable Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Shares and the Company fails to promptly (x) so notify the Holder and (y) deliver the Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by the Holder pursuant to Section 13 above to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Required Delivery Date and to which the Holder is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the date of the delivery by the Holder to the Company of the applicable Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Required Delivery Date either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to a Buyer and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder submitted for legend removal by the Holder pursuant to Section 13 above (ii) below or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock submitted for legend removal by the Holder pursuant to Section 3 above that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, for the shares of Common Stock so purchased) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate or credit the Holder’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates or credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC representing such number of shares of Common Stock that would have been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder by the Required Delivery Date multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price (as defined in the November Notes) of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by the Holder to the Company of the applicable Holder Waiver Shares or Reserved Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

 15 

 

 

15. Independent Nature of Holder's Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Holder, and the Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Holder under any Other Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Agreement, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and Other Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and Other Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement and the Company acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge, the Holder and the Other Holders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Other Agreement. The Company and the Holder confirm that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
