If the Holder requests payment of the December Payments, the January Payment and the 2019 Monthly Payments to be made in December Shares, January Shares and 2019 Monthly Shares, respectively, upon the sale of the December Shares, January Shares and 2019 Monthly Shares the Holder’s daily sales shall be limited to fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock traded on that day.

 

Further, in the event that the sale of the December Shares and/or the January Shares does not each net payment to the Holder proceeds at least equal to 103% of the amount of the December Payment and the January Payment, respectively, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall pay the difference for each payment to the Holder in cash (the “True-Up Cash”). The Company shall pay the True-Up Cash for each payment to the Holder within ten (10) Trading Days after the Holder requests such payments and delivers to the Company a spreadsheet evidencing its trades.

 

b.Any gross trading proceeds received by the Holder by February 25, 2019 from the sale of shares of Common Stock from the March 2019 through November 2019 Amortization Payments shall defer, until August 15, 2019, dollar for dollar, the payment due under the July Note and September Note by February 27, 2019 (inclusive of the grace period of seven trading days memorialized in the Amendment No. 9 Agreement) such payment due as memorialized in the Amendment No. 10 Agreement.

 

c.Any gross trading proceeds, less any gross trading proceeds applied by the Holder in Section 2.b (above), received by the Holder after February 26, 2019 until May 22, 2019 from the sale of shares of Common Stock from the March 2019 through November 2019 Amortization Payments shall defer, until August 15, 2019, dollar for dollar, the payment due under the July Note and September Note by May 24, 2019 (inclusive of the grace period of seven trading days memorialized in the Amendment No. 9 Agreement) such payment due as memorialized in the Amendment No. 10 Agreement.

 

d.On and after the date hereof, with respect to the Company’s debt obligations evidenced by certain junior notes that amount, in the aggregate, to approximately $3 million in indebtedness (the “Lenders’ Notes” or, in reference to the lenders as a class of holders of securities, the “Lenders,” each a “Lender”), the Holder agrees, provided the terms of the settlement of no less than 66.67% of the aggregate principal value of the Lenders’ Notes are no more favorable than the terms herein, to waive: (i) any actions with respect to the cross default provisions of the Notes if the Company settles such outstanding debt obligations with the Lenders no later than ten (10) trading days after the date hereof, (ii) the application of Sections 5 (i) and (j) of each of the Notes, and (iii) any adjustment to the interest rate and balance due on such Notes triggered by the proposed amendment to the Lenders’ Notes, provided there are no adjustments to the interest rate and balance due to the Lenders related to the default provision terms of their respective debt obligations. However, if the settlement of the Lenders’ outstanding debt obligations provides for the issuance of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, then such waiver is conditioned upon the Lenders’ agreement to limit the aggregate number of shares sold to nineteen and one half percent (19.5%), with no one Lender above seven and one half percent (7.5%), of the total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock traded on that day. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder does not waive any of its rights under the Notes except as otherwise set forth herein. Provided, further that nothing contained herein or in any other agreement, as amended and restated, including any amendment of any other Lenders’ Notes, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder, or the Lenders, in the event the Company shall settle with such Lenders, as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder, any other holder of the securities, including the Lenders, are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Amendment or any other agreement, and the Company acknowledges that the Holder and the Lenders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Amendment 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 independently to protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Amendment and the Transaction Documents.

e.The Company agrees that any debt obligation incurred by the Company shall not have a maturity date prior to January 5, 2020 without the Holder’s prior written consent.

f.The Holder covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales (as such term is defined in the May Agreement) of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to the Company’s Common Stock) during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending on the earlier of the Maturity Date of the Notes or the full repayment or conversion of the Notes; provided that this provision shall not prohibit any sales made where a corresponding Notice of Conversion is tendered to the Company and the shares of Common Stock received upon such conversion are used to close out such sale; provided, further that this provision shall not operate to restrict a Holder’s trading under any prior securities purchase agreement containing contractual rights that explicitly protects such trading in respect of the previously issued securities.
