(f) Release. The Purchase Agreement shall provide for a customary mutual release between the Company and the Investor in form and substance mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Investor.

 

2. Purchase Price

 

(a) In the event the Company exercises the Purchase Right hereunder, the purchase price per share at which the Investor shall be required to sell the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) shall be equal to the Determined Value of the Shares as of the date of the Purchase Exercise Notice.

 

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Determined Value” shall mean:

 

(i) during the first ninety (90) day period following the Effective Date (the “First Period”), $20,250,000 for the Shares;

(iv) after the Third Period until the expiration of the Purchase Right, $22,500,000 for the Shares.

 

 

(c) From and after the date hereof to the date that is twelve (12) months following the Effective Date, the Company shall pay or shall cause to be paid on the later of (x) the date of the Purchase and Sale Closing and (y) the date of the closing of the Liquidity Transaction, in the event that a Liquidity Transaction is entered into and consummated by the Company during such period, an amount in cash equal to the sum of (A)(1) the Determined Value, and (2) 5,325,888 shares of Common Stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, of the Company, multiplied by the difference between (x) the closing price per share of common stock of the Company the business day prior to announcing the Liquidity Transaction, and (y) the closing price per share of common stock of the Company the business day of announcing the Liquidity Transaction, multiplied by (B)(1) One, minus (2) 0.083 multiplied by the number of thirty (30) day periods following the Effective Date; provided that no amount payable under this Section 2(c) shall be a negative number.

 

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Liquidity Transaction” means a liquidity or change of control transaction, and the term “Capital Raise Transaction” means a capital raise transaction from which the Company uses proceeds to purchase all of the Shares.

 

(e) Patent Infringement Litigation Award. If, within twenty-four (24) months following the Effective Date, (i) the Company consummates the purchase of Shares pursuant to Section 1, and (ii) the Purchaser or its affiliate is awarded monetary damages or receives a settlement award (the “Award”) in connection with any patent infringement lawsuit filed by Purchaser against Upbound Group, Inc. (including its Acima subsidiaries), Katapult Holdings, Inc. and/or other companies alleging, among other things, unauthorized use of Purchaser’s patented technologies, then Purchaser shall pay to Seller within five (5) business days of date of receipt of such proceeds the Award Payment. “Award Payment” is equal to: (x) if the closing price per share of common stock of the Company three business days after announcing the Award is less than $4.00, then the Award Payment is $0, or (y) if the closing price per share of common stock of the Company three business days after announcing the Award is $4.00 or greater, the award payment is 5,325,888 multiplied by the difference between (i) the closing price per share of common stock of the Company the business day prior to announcing the Award, and (ii) the closing price per share of common stock of the Company three business days after announcing the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the difference between subsections (y)(i) and (ii) in the preceding sentence exceed $4.00 per share of common stock of the Company or the Award Payment exceed 18% of the Award.

7. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified, or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

 

8. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

 

 

9. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any action or dispute arising under or related in any way to this Agreement, the relationship of the parties hereto, the transactions leading to this Agreement or contemplated hereby and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties hereunder or related in any way to the foregoing, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal, substantive laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements entered into and to be performed solely within such state without giving effect to the principles of conflict of Laws thereof.

10. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party to this Agreement certifies and acknowledges that (a) no representative of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not seek to enforce the foregoing waiver in the event of a legal action; (b) such party has considered the implications of this waiver; (c) such party makes this waiver voluntarily; and (d) such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.

In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

13. Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the Investor and its affiliates for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses, including the fees and expenses of the Investor’s legal counsel, incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and including such costs and expenses incurred by the Investor and its affiliates, in each case, in the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement (if any) and, in each case, any other agreements or documents contemplated thereby or therewith. Such reimbursement shall not exceed $35,000 in the aggregate. The Company shall pay such reimbursement on the earlier of the expiration of this Agreement or promptly following the Purchase and Sale Closing.

 

14. Specific Performance.

Accordingly, if any person institutes an action or proceeding to enforce this Agreement by specific performance, any person against whom the action or proceeding is brought hereby waives the claim or defense that the complaining party has an adequate remedy at law, and no person shall in any action or proceeding put forward the claim or defense that an adequate remedy at law exists.
