PROSPECTUS

HAWAIIAN HOLDINGS, INC.

Warrant to Purchase 9,442,443 Shares of Common Stock

9,442,443 Shares of Common Stock

Offered by the Selling Securityholder

 

 

The selling securityholder identified herein, or any other selling securityholder identified in supplements to this prospectus, may from time to time offer or sell (i) the warrant to purchase 9,442,443 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued to the selling securityholder on October 20, 2022 (the “Warrant”), and (ii) up to 9,442,443 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrant and the Warrant Shares are referred to collectively in this prospectus as the “Securities.” The Warrant was acquired by the selling securityholder in a private placement that is more fully described under the heading “Description of Warrant.” To the extent that the selling securityholder resells any Securities, the selling securityholder may be required to provide you with this prospectus and a prospectus supplement identifying and containing specific information about the selling securityholder and the amount and terms of the Securities being offered. You should read this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement before you invest. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of any Securities by the selling securityholder, but we have agreed to pay certain registration and offering expenses. Upon any exercise of the Warrant, however, we will receive the exercise price of the Warrant for the shares issued upon such exercise. The selling securityholder will be responsible for all underwriting fees, discounts and commissions, if any, in connection with the resale of the Securities offered by this prospectus or any related prospectus supplement.

The selling securityholder may offer and sell the Securities to or through one or more underwriters, dealers and agents, or directly to purchasers, or through a combination of these methods on a continuous or delayed basis. If any underwriters, dealers or agents are involved in the sale of the Securities by the selling securityholder, their names and any applicable purchase price, fee, commission or discount arrangement between or among them will be set forth, or will be calculable from the information set forth, in the applicable prospectus supplement. The price to the public of those Securities and the net proceeds the selling securityholder expects to receive from the sale of such Securities will also be set forth in a prospectus supplement. See the sections of this prospectus titled “About this Prospectus” and “Plan of Distribution” for more information.

We are registering the resale of the Securities by the selling securityholder in connection with the selling securityholder’s registration rights pursuant to that certain Transaction Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2022, by and between us and Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Transaction Agreement”), but the registration of the Securities does not necessarily mean that any of the Securities will be offered or sold by the selling securityholder pursuant to this prospectus or at all.

This prospectus describes the general manner in which the Securities may be offered and sold by the selling securityholder. Any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may add, update, or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and any free writing prospectus, together with the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, before you make an investment decision.

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “HA.” On November 15, 2022, the closing price of our common stock was $15.05. There is no established trading market for the Warrant and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to list the Warrant on any securities exchange or automated quotation system.

 

 

INVESTING IN OUR SECURITIES INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. SEE “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE 4 OF THIS PROSPECTUS AND IN ANY SIMILAR SECTION CONTAINED IN OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN OR IN THE APPLICABLE PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT CONCERNING FACTORS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN OUR SECURITIES.

By using a shelf registration statement, the selling securityholder may sell the Securities from time to time and in one or more offerings or resales, as described in this prospectus.

Neither we nor the selling securityholder have authorized anyone to provide you with any information or to make any representations other than those contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of us and the selling securityholder or to which we have referred you. We and the selling securityholder take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you.

Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on this information. Before purchasing any Securities, you should carefully read both this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find Additional Information; Incorporation by Reference.” Any information in any accompanying prospectus supplement, any free writing prospectus, or any subsequent material incorporated herein or therein by reference will supersede the information in this prospectus or any earlier prospectus supplement.

All of the summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the actual documents. Copies of some of the documents referred to herein have been filed or will be filed or incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and you may obtain copies of those documents as described below in the section entitled “Where You Can Find Additional Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

When we refer to “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” in this prospectus, we mean Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, unless the context indicates otherwise or unless otherwise specified. The “selling securityholder” refers to “Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC” and includes pledgees, donees, assignees, transferees or other successors-in-interest who may later hold the selling securityholder’s interest.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, each prospectus supplement and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus and each prospectus supplement contain certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “plan,” “potentially,” “likely,” and similar expressions and variations thereof are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Those statements appear in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference, particularly in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. You are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.

Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein after we distribute this prospectus, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this prospectus, and although we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted a thorough inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDER

The selling securityholder may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement the Warrant and, after exercise of the Warrant in whole or in part, any or all of the Warrant Shares. We are registering the Securities offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling securityholder pursuant to the registration rights in the Transaction Agreement. The selling securityholder will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the selling securityholder for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the selling securityholder in disposing of the Securities, provided that we will reimburse the selling securityholder for the reasonable and documented fees of one legal counsel in connection with the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We will bear the costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the Securities, including all registration and filing fees, listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accounting firm.

The table below sets forth, as of November 18, 2022, the name of the selling securityholder, the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling securityholder, the number of shares of our common stock that may be offered by the selling securityholder pursuant to this prospectus and the number of shares of our common stock that the selling securityholder will beneficially own after this offering. For purposes of the beneficial ownership information set forth in the table below, we have assumed that (i) after this offering, none of the Warrant Shares or the Warrant will be beneficially owned by the selling securityholder and (ii) in the future, the selling securityholder will not acquire beneficial ownership of any shares of our common stock, including upon further vesting events under the Warrant. In addition, we assume that the selling securityholder has not sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, our securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In the table below, the number of shares of our common stock that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus is the number of shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercises.

Certain information set forth below is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling securityholder prior to the date hereof. Information concerning the selling securityholder may change from time to time. The selling securityholder may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares under this prospectus. Because the selling securityholder is not obligated to sell the Warrant or the Warrant Shares, we cannot state with certainty the number of shares of our common stock that the selling securityholder will hold upon consummation of any such sales. In addition, since the date on which the selling securityholder provided this information to us, such selling securityholder may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of the offered Warrant or the Warrant Shares. We are registering the Warrant and the Warrant Shares to permit the selling securityholder to resell the Warrant or the Warrant Shares when such securityholder deems appropriate, subject to the restrictions on transfer of the Warrant set forth in the Transaction Agreement.

Irrespective of vesting achievement, the Warrant also limits the selling securityholder’s beneficial ownership to 4.999% of our outstanding shares unless the selling securityholder amends or waives this limit by written notice to us, which will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice. For information on the selling securityholder’s acquisition of beneficial ownership of the Securities offered hereby and the vesting terms of the Warrant, see “Description of Warrant.” An affiliate of the selling securityholder has engaged and may continue to engage in commercial relationships with us.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The description of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s capital stock is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 4.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on February  12, 2020.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANT

Amazon Warrant

On October 20, 2022, we entered into the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon”), pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to issue to Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon and the selling securityholder, a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 9,442,443 shares of our common stock (the “Warrant Shares”), subject to adjustment and vesting in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant. The Transaction Agreement was entered into, and the Warrant was issued in connection with the entry into certain commercial arrangements between us and Amazon and its affiliates, including that certain Air Transportation Services Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2022, between Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (“Hawaiian”) and Amazon.com Services LLC (“Amazon Services”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon (the “ATSA”), under which Hawaiian will provide certain air cargo transportation services to Amazon Services for an initial term of eight years.

The Warrant Shares will vest over time based on payments to us by Amazon (whether made directly from Amazon, its affiliates or by a third party on behalf of Amazon) pursuant to the ATSA or certain other commercial arrangements (the “Qualified Payments”) of up to $1.8 billion. Upon the issuance of the Warrant, 1,258,992 Warrant Shares vested. Subject to vesting and certain conditions set forth in the Warrant, 6,294,962 Warrant Shares may be exercised, in whole or in part and for cash or on a net exercise basis, at any time before 5:00 p.m., Seattle time, on October 20, 2031 at an exercise price of $14.71 per share (the “First Tranche”), and the remaining Warrant Shares may be exercised in whole or in part and for cash or on a net exercise basis, at any time before 5:00 p.m., Seattle time, on October 20, 2031 at an exercise price equal to the 30-day volume weighted average price for our common stock as of the earlier of (i) October 20, 2025 or (ii) the date that the entire First Tranche has vested. The exercise price and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant are subject to customary antidilution adjustments.

Upon the consummation of certain acquisition transactions (as set forth in the Warrant), an amount of the unvested Warrant Shares will automatically vest and become exercisable as follows: (i) if the Qualified Payments collectively paid to us or any of our affiliates are equal to or less than $350 million, 25% of the Warrant Shares that are not vested as of such date, (ii) if the Qualified Payments collectively paid to us or any of our affiliates exceed $350 million but are not greater than $650 million, 50% of the Warrant Shares that are not vested as of such date, (iii) if the Qualified Payments collectively paid to us or any of our affiliates exceed $650 million but are not greater than $950 million, 75% of the Warrant Shares that are not vested as of such date, or (iv) if the Qualified Payments collectively paid to us or any of our affiliates exceed $950 million, 100% of the Warrant Shares that are not vested as of such date.

The Warrant also limits the selling securityholder’s beneficial ownership to 4.999% of our outstanding shares unless the selling securityholder amends or waives this limit by written notice to us, which will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice.

The holder of the Warrant has certain customary registration rights with respect to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Agreement. The Warrant does not entitle the holder to stockholder voting rights.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Warrant, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

If the selling securityholder uses delayed delivery contracts, we or the selling securityholder will disclose that the selling securityholder is using them in the applicable prospectus supplement and will tell you when the selling securityholder will demand payment and when delivery of the Securities will be made under the delayed delivery contracts.

 

   

These delayed delivery contracts will be subject only to the conditions that we or the selling securityholder describe in the applicable prospectus supplement.

 

   

We or the selling securityholder will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the commission that underwriters and agents soliciting purchases of the Securities under delayed delivery contracts will be entitled to receive.

Any underwriter, agent or dealer that is a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority member is not permitted to sell the Securities in an offering to accounts over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of its customer.

Unless otherwise specified in connection with a particular underwritten offering of the Securities, the underwriters will not be obligated to purchase offered Securities unless specified conditions are satisfied, and if the underwriters do purchase any offered Securities, they will purchase all offered Securities.

The selling securityholder may effect sales of securities in connection with forward sale, option or other types of agreements with third parties. Any distribution of securities pursuant to any forward sale agreement may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions that may take place through a stock exchange, including block trades or ordinary broker’s transactions, or through broker-dealers acting either as principal or agent, or through privately-negotiated transactions, or through an underwritten public offering, or through a combination of any such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated or fixed prices.

The specific terms of the lock-up provisions, if any, in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The selling securityholder may use this prospectus in connection with resales of securities they hold as described in the applicable prospectus supplement, in a post-effective amendment, in a free writing prospectus or in filings we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference. The selling securityholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who execute sales for the selling securityholder may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act in connection with the Securities they resell and any profits on the sales may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

In order to facilitate the offering of the Securities, any underwriters may engage in transactions in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Securities or any other securities the prices of which may be used to determine payments on such securities. Specifically, any underwriters may over-allot in connection with the offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover over-allotments or to stabilize the price of the Securities or of any such other securities, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the securities or any such other securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of the Securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate

 

10


Table of Contents

may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities above independent market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time.

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to each offering will set forth the anticipated date of delivery of the securities.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. As permitted by Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws provide that the corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or while a director or officer of the corporation, is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or non-profit entity, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorney fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the commencement of such proceeding by such person was authorized by the board of directors of the corporation and the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

As permitted by Section 145(b) of the DGCL, Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s amended and restated by-laws further provide that the corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorney fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

Further subsections of DGCL Section 145 provide that:

 

  1)

to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of

 

II-1


Table of Contents
  Section 145 or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith;

 

  2)

the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for pursuant to Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise; and

 

  3)

the corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.

As used in this Item 15, the term “proceeding” means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc., and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise.

Section 145 of the DGCL makes provision for the indemnification of officers and directors in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify officers and directors of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. under certain circumstances from liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides, in effect, that, to the fullest extent and under the circumstances permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. will indemnify any and all of its officers and directors. Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. may, in its discretion, similarly indemnify its employees and agents. Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation also relieves its directors from monetary damages to Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. or its stockholders for breach of such director’s fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Under Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, a corporation may relieve its directors and officers from personal liability to such corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of their fiduciary duty as directors or officers except (1) for a breach of the duty of loyalty, (2) for failure to act in good faith, (3) for intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, (4) for willful or negligent violations by directors of certain provisions in the DGCL imposing certain requirements with respect to stock repurchases, redemptions and dividends, (5) for any transactions from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit or (6) for officers from any action by or in the right of the corporation.

As discussed above, Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws provide for the indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permissible under the DGCL. In addition, Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers, and it maintains insurance policies insuring its directors and officers against certain liabilities that they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.

Item 17. Undertakings

 

(a)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

  (1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  (i)

To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

  (ii)

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

  (iii)

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

  (2)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  (3)

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

  (4)

That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

  (A)

Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

  (B)

Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document

 

II-3


Table of Contents
  incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to the effective date.

 

  (5)

That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer and sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i)

Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

  (ii)

Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

  (iii)

The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

  (iv)

Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(b)

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding), is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Exercise Price and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided that, if more than one subsection of this Section 11 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 11 so as to result in duplication; provided further that, (1) any adjustments to the Second Tranche Exercise Price and Second Tranche Warrant Shares, in each case shall as applicable, shall be tolled such that no adjustments will be made to the Second Tranche Exercise Price or the Second Tranche Warrant Shares prior to the earlier of (x) the Second Tranche Exercise Price Date, or (y) such earlier date that the Second Tranche Warrant Shares are exercisable pursuant to the terms hereof (the “Second Tranche Adjustment Date”), and (2) on the Second Tranche Adjustment Date, all adjustments that would otherwise would have been due (with the starting baseline of using retrospectively the Second Tranche Exercise Price) since the Issue Date to each of the Second Tranche Exercise Price and Second Tranch Warrant Shares, as applicable, shall be made subject to and in accordance with the preceding proviso with respect to no duplication of adjustments.

(i) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications, or Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time (a) declare, order, pay, or make a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in additional shares of Common Stock, (b) split, subdivide, or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (c) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination, or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Warrantholder immediately after such record date or effective date, as the case may be, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant after such date had this Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be (disregarding whether or not this Warrant had been exercisable by its terms at such time). In the event of such applicable adjustment, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination, or reclassification shall be immediately adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full before the adjustment determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence (disregarding whether or not this Warrant was exercisable by its terms at such time) and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, combination, or reclassification giving rise to such adjustment by (y) the new number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant in full determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time).

(ii) Certain Issuances of Common Stock or Convertible Securities. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time issue shares of Common Stock (or rights or warrants or any other securities or rights exercisable or convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, including through distributions on outstanding securities (collectively, “Convertible Securities”)) (other transactions to which the adjustments set forth in Section 11(i) are applicable), (1) without consideration or (2) at a consideration per share (or having a conversion price per share) that is less than the Exercise Price (the date of such issuance, the “Pricing Date”) then, in such event:

 

-13-


(A) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant held by the Warrantholder on the Pricing Date (the “Initial Number”) shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying the Initial Number by a fraction (I) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (y) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued (or into which Convertible Securities may be converted) on the Pricing Date and (II) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the Aggregate Consideration in respect of such issuance of shares of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) would purchase at the Market Price of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Pricing Date; and

(B) the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Warrantholder on the Pricing Date shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pricing Date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior to the adjustment pursuant to clause (A) above (disregarding whether or not this Warrant was exercisable by its terms at such time), and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately after the adjustment pursuant to clause (A) above (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time).

For purposes of the foregoing, (1) in the case of the issuance of such shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities for, in whole or in part, any noncash property (or in the case of any noncash property payable upon conversion of any such Convertible Securities), the consideration represented by such noncash property shall be deemed to be the Market Price (in the case of securities) and/or Fair Market Value (in all other cases), as applicable, of such noncash property as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the Pricing Date (before deduction of any related expenses payable to third parties, including discounts and commissions); and (2) if the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance of any Convertible Securities in accordance with this Section 11, solely to the extent the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares has been properly reflected for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the actual conversion of such Convertible Securities, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the actual conversion of such Convertible Securities in accordance with their terms. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 11(ii) shall become effective immediately upon the date of such issuance. For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to this Section 11(ii).

(iii) Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, declares or makes any dividend or distributes to holders of shares of Common Stock (and not to the Warrantholder) evidence of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash

 

-14-


dividends or property) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock, or other securities, property, or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement, or other similar transaction other than dividends or distributions pursuant to Section11(i)) (collectively, a “Distribution”), then the Warrantholder will be entitled to participate in such Distribution and be deemed to have exercised, and be the holder of, Warrant Shares that are vested as of immediately before the record date of such Distribution except that Warrantholder will not be eligible to receive any Distribution on unexercised Warrant Shares for any regular quarterly dividend payment to the Company’s shareholders declared by the Board in the ordinary course consistent with its past practice prior to March 1, 2020 so long as such regular quarterly dividend payment is not greater than $0.15 per share; provided that, in the event of a regular quarterly dividend payment that is greater than such amount, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to participate in such regular quarterly dividend payment for the amount per share in excess of $0.15.

(iv) Acquisition Transactions. In case of any Acquisition Transaction, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) the Company shall notify the Warrantholder in writing of such Acquisition Transaction as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than ten days prior to the effectiveness thereof), (b) an amount of Warrant Shares equal to the remaining unvested Warrant Shares multiplied by Acquisition Transaction Multiplier shall immediately vest upon the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction, and subject to clause (c) below, become immediately exercisable upon consummation of such Acquisition Transaction, and (c) solely in the event of an Acquisition Transaction that is a Business Combination, the Warrantholder’s right to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be converted, effective upon the consummation of such Business Combination, into the right to exercise this Warrant to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that the shares of Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business Combination would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities, or property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant upon and following adjustment pursuant to this paragraph, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the Warrantholder shall have the right to make the same election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of shares of stock or other securities or property which the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company, or the Person or Persons formed by the applicable Business Combination, or that acquire(s) the applicable shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, shall make lawful provisions to establish such rights and to provide for such adjustments that, for events from and after such Business Combination, shall be as nearly equivalent as possible to the rights and adjustments provided for herein, and the Company shall not be a party to or permit any such Business Combination to occur unless such provisions are made as a part of the terms thereof.

(v) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 11 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares

 

-15-


into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, or more.

(vi) Timing of Issuance of Additional Securities Upon Certain Adjustments. In any event in which (a) the provisions of this Section 11 shall require that an adjustment (the “Subject Adjustment”) shall become effective immediately after a record date (the “Subject Record Date”) for an event and (b) the Warrantholder exercises this Warrant after the Subject Record Date and before the consummation of such event, the Company may defer until the consummation of such event issuing to such Warrantholder the incremental additional shares of Common Stock or other property issuable upon such exercise by reason of the Subject Adjustment; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall promptly deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional shares (or other property, as applicable) upon the consummation of such event.

(vii) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 11, the Company shall promptly prepare a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and cause a copy of such statement to be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable after the event giving rise to the adjustment.

(viii) Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 11 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 11 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall provide written notice to the Warrantholder, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind, or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the date so fixed. In case of all other actions, such notice shall be given at least ten days prior to the taking of such proposed action unless the Company reasonably determines in good faith that, given the nature of such action, the provision of such notice at least ten days in advance is not reasonably practicable from a timing perspective, in which case such notice shall be given as far in advance prior to the taking of such proposed action as is reasonably practicable from a timing perspective.

(ix) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 11 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in the Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in the Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

 

-16-


(x) No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or any other organizational document, 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company shall not take or permit to be taken any action that would (a) increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect or (b) entitle the Warrantholder to an adjustment under this Section 11 if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant in full (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time), together with all shares of Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise in full of any and all outstanding Equity Securities (disregarding whether or not any such Equity Securities are exercisable by their terms at such time), would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its certificate of incorporation.

(xi) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 11, the Company shall promptly take any and all action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory or other governmental approval, approval of the Principal Trading Market or other applicable securities exchange, or, subject to Section 11(xiii), any corporate or shareholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock, or all other securities or other property, that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 11.

(xii) No Adjustment for Permitted Transactions. Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 11 in connection with any Permitted Transaction, except for the adjustment set forth in Section 11(xiv).

(xiii) Warrant Shares Cap. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any adjustment or other change to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant would result in the aggregate number of Warrant Shares issued under this Warrant to exceed 10,281,753 (the “Warrant Shares Cap”), then the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after such adjustment or change shall be reduced to the number of shares equal to the Warrant Shares Cap (for purposes of this calculation, rounded down to the nearest whole share); provided that, upon obtaining the Requisite Shareholder Approval, the aggregate number of the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted and changed to equal the number of shares assuming the reduction(s) set forth in this Section 11(xiii) did not occur.

 

-17-


(xiv) Top-Up. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, issues an Equity Award Amount greater than the applicable Equity Award Cap in any calendar year period (such excess, the “Excess Equity Award Amount”) beginning for the calendar year ended December 31, 2023 and ending on the earlier of (a) the date on which the Company has issued more than 3,430,060 Equity Awards since the Issuance Date and (b) December 31, 2029, then, in such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant held by the Warrantholder as of December 31st of such calendar year ended (the “Top-Up Initial Number”) shall be increased to the following amount: (I) the Top-Up Initial Number, plus (II)(x) a fraction the numerator of which shall be the Excess Equity Award Amount and the denominator of which shall be the 30-Day VWAP as of December 31st of such calendar year, multiplied by (y) a fraction the numerator of which shall be the Top-Up Initial Number and the denominator of which shall be the Fully Diluted Basis as of December 31st of the prior calendar year. For the avoidance of doubt, no increase or decrease to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to this Section 11(xiv).

12. Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not honor any exercise of this Warrant, and a Warrantholder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted exercise set forth on an applicable Notice of Exercise, such Warrantholder (together with such Warrantholder’s Affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and any other applicable regulations of the Commission, including any Group of which the Warrantholder is a member (the foregoing, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of Warrant Shares issuable under the Notice of Exercise with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (a) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of any Warrant beneficially owned by such Warrantholder or any of its Attribution Parties and (b) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including any warrants) beneficially owned by such Warrantholder or any of its Attribution Parties that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. For purposes of this Section 12, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and any other applicable regulations of the Commission. For purposes of this Section 12, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Warrantholder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (X) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (Y) a more recent public announcement by the Company that is filed with the Commission, or (Z) a more recent notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to the Warrantholder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon the written request of a Warrantholder, the Company shall, within three Trading Days thereof, confirm in writing to such Warrantholder 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 any actual

 

-18-


conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including exercise of this Warrant, by such Warrantholder or its Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Warrantholder. The Company shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the Warrantholder in any Notice of Exercise regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Warrantholder acknowledges that the Warrantholder is solely responsible for any schedules or statements required to be filed by it in accordance with Section 13(d) or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

(ii) The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 4.999% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Warrant Shares pursuant to such Notice of Exercise (to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 12); provided, however, that by written notice to the Company, which will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is given by the Warrantholder to the Company, the Warrantholder may waive or amend the provisions of this Section 12 to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other number, and the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue to apply. Upon any such waiver or amendment to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived or amended by the Warrantholder without first providing the minimum written notice required by the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following notice of an Acquisition Transaction under Section 11(iv) with respect to an Acquisition Transaction that is pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer (by the Company or another Person (other than the Warrantholder or any Affiliate of the Warrantholder)), the Warrantholder may waive or amend the Beneficial Ownership Limitation effective immediately upon written notice to the Company and may reinstitute a Beneficial Ownership Limitation at any time thereafter effective immediately upon written notice to the Company.

(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12, none of the provisions of this Section 12 shall restrict in any way the number of shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that the Warrantholder may receive in the event of an Acquisition Transaction as contemplated in Section 11 of this Warrant.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In addition, each of the parties expressly (a) submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of Delaware, or if such court is unavailable, the United States District Court for Delaware (the Chosen Courts”), in the event any dispute (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) arises out of this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and waives any claim of lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue and any claims that such courts are an inconvenient forum, and (c) agrees that it shall not bring any claim, action, or proceeding relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Chosen Courts, and in stipulated preference ranking, of the preceding clause (a). Each party agrees that service of process upon such party in any such claim,

 

-19-


action, or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS WARRANT. EACH PARTY (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.

14. Binding Effect. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.

15. Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder.

16. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if sent by United Parcel Service or FedEx on an overnight basis, signature receipt required, one Business Day after mailing, (b) if sent by email, with a copy mailed on the same day (or next Business Day, if such day is not a Business Day) in the manner provided in clause (a) of this Section 16 when transmitted and receipt is confirmed, or (c) if otherwise personally delivered, when delivered with signature receipt required. All notices hereunder shall be delivered as set forth below, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice.

18. Specific Performance. The parties agree that failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants under this Warrant, including a party’s failure to take all actions as are necessary on such party’s part in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Warrant, will cause irreparable injury to the other party, for which monetary damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. It is agreed that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance of the terms hereof, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, and each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of a party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of such party’s obligations under this Warrant, this being in addition to any other remedies to which the parties are entitled at law or equity.

19. Limitation of Liability. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and

 

-21-


no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Warrantholder, shall give rise to any liability of the Warrantholder for the purchase price of any Warrant Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. The sole liability of the Warrantholder under this Warrant shall be the applicable aggregate Exercise Price if and when this Warrant is exercised in part or in whole.

20. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Warrant to “Sections” or “Annexes” such reference shall be to a Section of, or Annex to, this Warrant unless otherwise indicated. The terms defined in the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural and vice versa. References to “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and the like refer to this Warrant as a whole and not to any particular section or provision, unless the context requires otherwise. References to “parties” refer to the parties to this Warrant. The headings contained in this Warrant are for reference purposes only and are not part of this Warrant. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” are used in this Warrant, they shall be deemed followed by the words “without limitation.” No rule of construction against the draftsperson shall be applied in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Warrant, as this Warrant is the product of negotiation between sophisticated parties advised by counsel. Any reference to a wholly owned subsidiary of a person shall mean such subsidiary is directly or indirectly wholly owned by such person. All references to “$” or “dollars” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America. Except as expressly stated in this Warrant, all references to any statute, rule, or regulation are to the statute, rule or regulation as amended, modified, supplemented, or replaced from time to time (and, in the case of statutes, include any rules and regulations promulgated under the statute) and to any section of any statute, rule, or regulation include any successor to the section.

Registration Statement on Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), filed by Hawaiian Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in connection with the registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), of the Securities (as defined below).

The Registration Statement relates to the proposed offer and sale by the selling securityholder (the “Selling Securityholder”), from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act, as set forth in the Registration Statement, the prospectus contained therein (the “Prospectus”) and the supplements to the prospectus referred to therein (each a “Prospectus Supplement”), of (i) a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 9,442,443 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) up to an aggregate of 9,442,443 shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Warrant Shares” and, together with the Warrant, the “Securities”).

The Securities are to be sold from time to time as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus contained therein and the Prospectus Supplements.

We have examined instruments, documents, certificates and records that we have deemed relevant and necessary for the basis of our opinions hereinafter expressed. In such examination, we have assumed: (a) the authenticity of original documents and the genuineness of all signatures; (b) the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; (c) the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties contained in the instruments, documents, certificates and records we have reviewed; (d) that the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective under the Act; (e) that a Prospectus Supplement, to the extent necessary, will have been filed with the Commission describing the Securities offered thereby; (f) that the Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and any applicable Prospectus Supplement; (g) that a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to any Securities offered will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Selling Securityholder and the other parties thereto; (h) that any Securities issuable upon conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any Securities being offered will be duly authorized, created and, if appropriate, reserved for issuance upon such conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise; and (i) the legal capacity of all natural persons. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein that were not independently established or verified, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company.

Based on such examination, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Warrant is a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

2. The Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant have been duly authorized by the Company and, when issued and delivered by the Company upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of the Warrant, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Our opinion that any document is legal, valid and binding is qualified as to:

(a) limitations imposed by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally;

(b) rights to indemnification and contribution, which may be limited by applicable law or equitable principles; and

(c) the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction, other than the federal laws of the United States of America and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

This TRANSACTION AGREEMENT, dated as of October 20, 2022 (this “Agreement”), is by and between Hawaiian Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Amazon.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Amazon”).

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries have entered into and may enter into certain commercial arrangements with Amazon and/or any of its subsidiaries under which the Company and/or its subsidiaries may from time to time provide services to Amazon and/or its subsidiaries, including that certain Air Transportation Services Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, by and between Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. and Amazon.com Services LLC (the “Commercial Arrangements”);

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company desires to issue to Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Amazon that is disregarded as separate from Amazon for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“NV Holdings”) and NV Holdings desires to acquire from the Company, at the Closing, a warrant to purchase a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”); and

WHEREAS, each of the parties wishes to set forth in this Agreement certain terms and conditions regarding, among other things, NV Holdings’s ownership of the Warrant and Warrant Shares (as defined below), as applicable.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as set forth herein.

ARTICLE I

WARRANT ISSUANCE; CLOSING

1.1 Warrant Issuance. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall issue to NV Holdings, and NV Holdings shall acquire from the Company, at the Closing, a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 9,442,443 Warrant Shares, subject to adjustment in accordance with its terms, in the form attached hereto as Annex A (the “Warrant”). The issuance of the Warrant by the Company and the acquisition of the Warrant by NV Holdings are referred to herein as the “Warrant Issuance.”

1.2 Closing. The closing of the Warrant Issuance (the “Closing”) shall take place electronically via exchange of executed documents immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Amazon the Warrant, as evidenced by a duly and validly executed book-entry dated as of the date hereof and bearing appropriate legends as hereinafter provided for.

1.3 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to “Recitals,” “Articles,” “Sections,” “Annexes,” “Schedules,” or “Exhibits” such reference shall be to


a Recital, Article, or Section of, or Annex, Schedule, or Exhibit to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The terms defined in the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural and vice versa. References to “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and the like refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or provision, unless the context requires otherwise. References to “parties” refer to the parties to this Agreement. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not part of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed followed by the words “without limitation.” No rule of construction against the draftsperson shall be applied in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, as this Agreement is the product of negotiation between sophisticated parties advised by counsel. Any reference to a wholly owned subsidiary of a Person shall mean such subsidiary is directly or indirectly wholly owned by such Person. All references to “$” or “dollars” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, all references to any statute, rule, or regulation are to the statute, rule, or regulation as amended, modified, supplemented, or replaced from time to time (and, in the case of statutes, include any rules and regulations promulgated under the statute) and to any section of any statute, rule, or regulation, including any successor to the section. The term “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or any other day on which commercial banks in the State of New York are authorized or required by Applicable Law to be closed. With respect to the Warrant and Warrant Shares, such term shall include any shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities of the Company received by NV Holdings as a result of any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, other subdivision, reorganization, reclassification, or similar capital transaction.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

2.1 Material Adverse Effect; Due Diligence.

(a) “Material Adverse Effect” means any change, effect, event, development, circumstance, or occurrence (each, an “Effect”) that, taken individually or when taken together with all other applicable Effects, has been, is, or would reasonably be expected to (i) have a material adverse affect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (ii) prevent or materially impair the Company’s ability to consummate the Warrant Issuance at the Closing; provided, however, that in no event shall any Effect, alone or in combination, be deemed to constitute, or be taken into account in determining whether there has been, is, or would be, a Material Adverse Effect to the extent resulting from: (A) any change in general economic, market, or political conditions; (B) any change in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) or Applicable Law to the extent such change is generally applicable and not specifically directed at the Company or its subsidiaries; (C) any act of war (whether or not declared), armed hostilities, sabotage, or terrorism, or any material escalation or worsening of any such events, or any national disaster, or any national or international calamity; (D) any epidemic or pandemic, including COVID-19 or anything reasonably arising therefrom, including, without limitation, the

 

-2-


values of share prices traded on any stock market or exchange; (E) conditions generally affecting the industry in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate; (F) any failure, in and of itself, to meet internal or published projections, forecasts, targets, or revenue or earnings predictions for any period, as well as any change, in and of itself, by the Company in any projections, forecasts, targets, or revenue or earnings predictions for any period (provided that the underlying causes of such failures (to the extent not otherwise falling within one of the other exceptions in this proviso) may constitute or be taken into account in determining whether there has been, is, or would be a Material Adverse Effect); or (G) any change in the price or trading volume of the Common Stock (provided that the underlying causes of such change (to the extent not otherwise falling within one of the other exceptions in this proviso) may constitute or be taken into account in determining whether there has been, is, or would be a Material Adverse Effect); provided, further, that any Effect referred to in clauses (A) through (E) may be taken into account in determining whether or not there has been, is, or would be a Material Adverse Effect to the extent such Effect has a disproportionate adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as compared to other similarly situated participants in the industry in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate.

(b) Each party acknowledges that it is not relying upon any representation or warranty of the other party, express or implied, that is not set forth in this Agreement. Amazon acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to conduct such review and analysis of the business, assets, condition, operations, and prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, including an opportunity to ask such questions of management and to review such information maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries, in each case as it considers sufficient for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each party further acknowledges that it has had such an opportunity to consult with its own counsel, financial and tax advisers, and other professional advisers as it believes is sufficient for purposes of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

2.2 Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports (other than any information in the “Risk Factors” or “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” sections of such SEC Reports), the Company represents and warrants as of the date of this Agreement, and in the case of the representation in the last sentence of Section 2.2(c), as of the date of each issuance of Warrant Shares, to Amazon that:

(a) Organization and Authority. The Company (i) has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business in all material respects as currently conducted, and, except as would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect, (A) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation for the transaction of business and (B) is in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, (ii) is a “Citizen of the United States” (“Citizen of the United States”) as defined by Section 40102(a)(15) of Title 49 of United States Code, and as such term is interpreted by the United States Department of Transportation (“DOT”), (iii) through its Affiliates, (A) holds air carrier certificates and operations specifications issued by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) pursuant to Section 44705 of Title 49 of the United States Code and corresponding FAA regulations (“FAA Regulations”), (B) holds certificates of public convenience and necessity (and/or equivalent

To the knowledge of the Company, each Beneficial Owner of 5% or more of the Common Stock is a Citizen of the United States. The Company has made available to Amazon complete and correct copies of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as of the date of this Agreement, and each as so delivered is in full force and effect.

(b) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (x) 118,000,000 shares of Common Stock of which, as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on October 19, 2022, 51,411,336 shares were issued and outstanding and no shares were held in treasury, and (y) 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share of which, immediately prior to the execution hereof, three shares were issued and outstanding. As of 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on October 19, 2022, the Company has (A) no shares of Common Stock subject to restricted stock awards, (B) 1,666 shares of Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding stock options of the Company, (C) 959,486 shares of Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant to restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units, (D) 3,430,060 shares of Common Stock available for future grant under the Company Stock Plans, and (E) 1,134,686 shares of Common Stock subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding warrants of the Company. The outstanding shares of Common Stock have been, and the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any Company Stock Plan will be, duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and subject to no preemptive rights (and were not issued in violation of any preemptive rights, the Company’s certificate of incorporation, or any Applicable Law). Except as set forth above or pursuant to the Warrant, there are no (1) shares of capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting securities of the Company authorized, reserved for issuance, issued, or outstanding, (2) options, warrants, calls, preemptive rights, subscription, or other rights, instruments, agreements, arrangements, or commitments of any character obligating the Company or any of its subsidiaries to issue, transfer, or sell or cause to be issued, transferred, or sold any shares of capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting security in the Company or any securities or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for such shares of capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting securities or obligating the Company or any of its subsidiaries to grant, extend, or enter into any such option, warrant, call, preemptive right, subscription, or other right, instrument, agreement, arrangement, or commitment, (3) outstanding contractual obligations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire any capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting securities of the Company, or (4) issued or outstanding performance awards, units, rights to receive any capital stock, or other Equity Securities or voting securities of the Company on a deferred basis, or rights to purchase or receive any capital stock or Equity Securities or voting securities issued or granted by the Company to any current or former director, officer, employee, or consultant of the Company. No subsidiary of the Company owns any shares of capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting securities of the Company. There are no voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party with respect to the voting of the capital stock or other Equity Securities or voting securities of the Company. All

 

-4-


options granted and shares reserved or issued pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan, 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, and employee stock purchase plan (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”) have been granted, reserved, and issued in all material respects in full compliance with their respective Company Stock Plan and Applicable Law. The issuance of the Warrant and the Warrant Shares will not result in any adjustment to the conversion price or exercise price of any Equity Securities of the Company that are convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock. As of immediately after the execution hereof, assuming the issuance of the Warrant Shares in full, the number of Warrant Shares equals 14.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis.

(c) The Warrant and Warrant Shares. The Warrant has been duly authorized by the Company and constitutes a valid, legal, and binding obligation of the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by the Bankruptcy Exceptions. The Warrant Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Warrant, and when so issued, paid for, and delivered upon due exercise of the Warrant, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free and clear of any liens or encumbrances, other than liens or encumbrances created by the Transaction Documents, arising as a matter of Applicable Law or created by or at the direction of Amazon or any of its subsidiaries.

(d) Authorization, Enforceability.

(i) The Company has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder (except with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares in an amount in excess of the Warrant Shares Cap, for which the sole action necessary to make this representation true is to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval). The execution, delivery, and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and its shareholders, and no further approval or authorization is required on the part of the Company or its shareholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, assuming the due authorization, execution, and delivery by the other parties hereto and thereto, are valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company and such subsidiary, respectively, in accordance with their respective terms, except as the same may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity (“Bankruptcy Exceptions”).

(ii) The execution, delivery, and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and compliance by the Company with any of the provisions hereof and thereof, will not (A) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or

 

-5-


accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration of, or result in the creation of, any lien, security interest, charge, or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries under any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of (x) its certificate of incorporation (or analogous organizational documents) or (y) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, lease, agreement, or other instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its subsidiaries may be bound, or to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject; (B) subject to compliance with the statutes and regulations referred to in Section 2.2(d)(iii), violate any Applicable Law or Order applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets except, in the case of clauses (A)(y) and (B), for those occurrences that would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect; (C) result in any payment (including severance, unemployment compensation, forgiveness of indebtedness, or otherwise) becoming due to any director or any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries under any employment, compensation or benefit plan, program, policy, agreement, or arrangement that is sponsored, maintained, or contributed to by the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each, a “Company Benefit Plan”) or otherwise; (D) increase any benefits otherwise payable under any Company Benefit Plan; (E) result in any acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits; (F) require the funding or acceleration of funding of any trust or other funding vehicle; or (G) constitute a “change in control,” “change of control,” or other similar term under any Company Benefit Plan; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to include payments or other benefits under a Company Benefit Plan that (a) give effect to the Company’s performance of the Transaction Documents insofar as that performance impacts the Company’s overall results of operations, and (b) are made to any individual whose compensation is based in part on performance related to a specific territory that is impacted by the Company’s performance of the Transaction Documents.

(iii) Other than (A) such notices, filings, exemptions, reviews, authorizations, consents, or approvals as have been made or obtained as of the date hereof, and (B) notices, filings, exemptions, reviews, authorizations, consents, or approvals as may be required under, and other applicable requirements of (1) any Antitrust Laws, to the extent applicable, (2) the Exchange Act, (3) the Securities Act, (4) the Principal Trading Market, and (5) FAA Regulations or DOT Regulations, no notice to, filing with, exemption, or review by, or authorization, consent, or approval of, any Governmental Entity is required to be made or obtained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the consummation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of the Warrant Issuance and the other transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents, except for any such notices, filings, exemptions, reviews, authorizations, consents, and approvals, the failure of which to make or obtain, would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Company Financial Statements; Internal Controls.

(i) Each of the consolidated financial statements included in the SEC Reports (A) complied as to form, as of their respective dates of filing with the Commission, in all

 

-6-


material respects with the applicable accounting requirements and with the rules and regulations of the Commission, (B) was prepared in accordance with GAAP, in all material respects, applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in such financial statements or in the notes thereto and subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnote disclosures), and (C) fairly presents, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows (and changes in financial position, if any) of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the date and for the periods referred to in such financial statements except to the extent such financial statements have been modified or superseded by later SEC Reports, and except, in the case of the unaudited statements, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act and pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and for normal year-end audit adjustments which would not be material in amount or effect.

(ii) Neither the Company nor any of the Company’s subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party to, any joint venture, off-balance sheet partnership, or any similar agreement or arrangement, where the result, purpose, or effect of such agreement or arrangement is to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving, or material liabilities of, the Company or any of its subsidiaries in the SEC Reports (including the financial statements contained therein).

(iii) The Company has designed and maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting.

ARTICLE III

COVENANTS

3.1 Efforts.

(a) Without prejudice to the terms and conditions hereof (including the remainder of this Section 3.1 and Section 3.6) and the other Transaction Documents, each party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper, or desirable under Applicable Law to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the parties shall (i) subject to the provisions of this Section 3.1, including Section 3.1(d), use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable (as determined in good faith by Amazon after consultation with the Company in accordance with the first sentence of Section 3.1(d)) all exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals from, and to make all filings with and to give all notices to, all third parties, including any Governmental Entities, required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including as may be required upon one or more exercises of Warrant Shares, and whether such approvals arise from Antitrust Laws or otherwise, or one or more sales of Warrant Shares), which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include providing, as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable, such information to any Governmental Entity as such Governmental Entity may request in connection therewith, and (ii) cooperate fully with the other party in promptly seeking to obtain all such exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals and to make all such filings and give such notices.

 

-11-


(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as promptly as practicable after written notice from Amazon, and in any event no later than in accordance with established regulatory time frames, the parties shall (i) file any Notification and Report Forms required or advisable under the HSR Act with the Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice and (ii) file, make or give, as applicable, all other filings, requests, or notices required or advisable under any other Antitrust Laws, in each case with respect to the issuance of the Warrant Shares (the “Initial Filing Transaction”) (the filings, requests and notices described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Initial Antitrust Filings”). In addition, following the receipt of the Initial Antitrust Clearance, to the extent required or advisable by Applicable Law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Antitrust Law) in connection with any further issuance of Warrant Shares (in each case, whether in full or in part), the parties shall file, make, or give, as applicable, as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable (as determined in good faith by Amazon after consultation with the Company in accordance with the first sentence of Section 3.1(d)), any further filings, requests, or notices required under any Antitrust Laws, including the HSR Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall supply as promptly as reasonably practicable to the appropriate Governmental Entities, and in any event no later than in accordance with established regulatory time frames, any information and documentary material that may be required pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Initial Antitrust Clearance” as of any time means (x) prior to such time, the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and the receipt of all exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals, the making of all filings and the giving of all notices, and the expiration of all waiting periods, pursuant to any other Antitrust Laws, in each case to the extent required with respect to the Initial Filing Transaction, and (y) the absence at such time of any Applicable Law or Order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition under any Antitrust Law, in each case that has the effect of preventing the consummation of any issuances of Warrant Shares.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including the remainder of this Section 3.1) and the other Transaction Documents, and only to the extent required under the Antitrust Laws, each of the parties shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Laws that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity, so as to enable the parties to give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents, nothing in this Section 3.1 shall require, or be construed to require, any party or any of its Affiliates to agree to (and no party or any of its Affiliates shall agree to, without the prior written consent of the other parties): (i) sell, hold separate, divest, discontinue, or limit (or accept any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operation of) any assets, businesses, or interests of it or its Affiliates (irrespective of whether or not such assets, businesses, or interests are related to, are the subject matter of, or could be affected by the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents); (ii) without limiting clause (i) in any respect, accept any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses, or interests that would reasonably be expected to adversely impact (x) the

 

-12-


business of, or the financial, business, or strategic benefits of, the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents to it or its Affiliates, or (y) any other assets, businesses, or interests of it or its Affiliates; (iii) without limiting clause (i) in any respect, accept any modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents that would reasonably be expected to adversely impact (x) the business of, or financial, business, or strategic benefits of, the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents to it or its Affiliates, or (y) any other assets, businesses, or interests of it or its Affiliates; or (iv) without limiting clause (i) in any respect, take any action that would materially impair the value to Amazon of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) Amazon shall have the principal responsibility for devising and implementing the strategy (including with respect to the timing of filings) for obtaining any exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals required or advisable under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, that Amazon shall consult in advance with the Company regarding the overall antitrust strategy. Each of the parties shall promptly notify the other party of, and if in writing, furnish the other with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the other of), any substantive communication that it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Entity, whether written or oral, relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, and to the extent reasonably practicable, permit the other party to review in advance any proposed substantive written communication by such party to any Governmental Entity and consider in good faith the other party’s reasonable comments on any such proposed substantive written communications prior to their submission. No party shall, and each party shall cause its Affiliates not to, participate or agree to participate in any substantive meeting or communication with any Governmental Entity in respect of the subject matter of the Transaction Documents, including on a “no names” or hypothetical basis, unless (to the extent practicable) it or they consult with the other party in advance, and to the extent practicable and permitted by such Governmental Entity, give the other party the opportunity to jointly prepare for, attend, and participate in such meeting or communication. The parties shall (and shall cause their subsidiaries and Representatives to) coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the matters described in this Section 3.1, including (x) furnishing to each other all information reasonably requested to determine the jurisdictions in which a filing or submission under any Antitrust Law is required or advisable, (y) furnishing to each other all information required for any filing or submission under any Antitrust Law, and (z) keeping each other reasonably informed with respect to the status of each exemption, authorization, consent, approval, filing, and notice under any Antitrust Law, in each case, in connection with the matters that are the subject of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. The parties shall provide each other with copies of all substantive correspondence, filings, or communications between them or any of their Affiliates or Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or members of its staff, on the other hand, relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; provided that such material may be redacted as necessary to (1) comply with contractual arrangements, (2) address good faith legal privilege or confidentiality concerns, and (3) comply with Applicable Law.

 

-13-


(e) Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, including in this Section 3.1, in the event that any arbitral, administrative, judicial, or analogous action, claim, or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity or any other third party relating to or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents (“Transaction Litigation”), neither party shall be required to contest and resist any such Transaction Litigation or to seek to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, or decree, whether temporary, preliminary, or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation or implementation of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents. Upon the issuance of a non-appealable permanent judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, or decree in any Transaction Litigation that prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation or implementation of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents, this Agreement and the Warrant shall immediately and automatically be terminated; provided, however, that the parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action (1) to make Amazon and the Company economically the same as if the Warrant had not terminated, including, without limitation, providing for the benefit of Amazon’s vesting under the Warrant that occurred prior to such automatic termination, and (2) with respect to unvested Warrant Shares, to preserve for Amazon the effect of Vesting Events occurring after such automatic termination, assuming such Vesting Events occur; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, this sentence shall not apply in the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii). Each party shall keep the other party reasonably informed with respect to any Transaction Litigation unless doing so would reasonably be likely to jeopardize any privilege of such party regarding any such Transaction Litigation (subject to such party using commercially reasonable efforts to develop and implement, and cooperating in good faith with the other party in developing and implementing, reasonable alternative arrangements to provide such other party with such information). Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, each party shall promptly advise the other party orally and in writing in connection with, and shall consult with each other with respect to, any Transaction Litigation and shall in good faith give consideration to each other’s advice with respect to such Transaction Litigation.

(f) In the event of Transaction Litigation where a party hereto or its Affiliates is a named defendant and the other party hereto or its Affiliates is not a named defendant, the party who is or its Affiliates are a named defendant shall reimburse the other party for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such Transaction Litigation; provided that, in the case of any Transaction Litigation which arises under the HSR Act or any of the Antitrust Laws, each of the Company and Amazon shall bear its own expenses.

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as promptly as practicable after written notice from Amazon that Amazon intends to exercise any Warrant that would result in Amazon having beneficial control of 10% or more of the Common Stock, which notice shall be at least forty-five (45) days before the date that Amazon intends such exercise, Amazon and the Company shall jointly file a “Notice of Substantial Change of Ownership” with the DOT. Amazon and the Company shall cooperate fully in promptly providing information required to be submitted with the DOT pursuant to 14 CFR Part 204 and responding to any associated information requests of the DOT in its review of the substantial change in the Company’s ownership and in seeking a “comfort letter” from the DOT in connection therewith.

 

-14-


(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the earlier of (i) the exercise of the Warrant in full or (ii) the expiration, termination, or cancellation of the Warrant without the Warrant having been exercised in full, no party shall have any further obligations under this Section 3.1; provided, that this Section 3.1(h) shall in no way relieve any party with respect to any breach by such party of this Section 3.1 prior to such time.

3.2 Public Announcements.

(a) The parties acknowledge that the Company’s initial announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to customers, suppliers, investors, employees, and otherwise (the “Initial Announcement”) and the timing thereof has been agreed by the parties. Other than the transmission of the Initial Announcement at the time mutually agreed upon by the parties, except as required by Applicable Law or by the rules or requirements of any stock exchange on which the securities of a party are listed, no party shall make, or cause to be made, or permit any of its Affiliates to make, any press release or public announcement or other similar communications in respect of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby without prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) of the other party, to the extent such release, announcement, or communication relates to the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to receive the consent of the other party to any release, announcement, or communication (including any filing required to be made under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act) to the extent such release, announcement, or communication solely includes information (i) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Transaction Documents that is consistent with the Initial Announcement, provided that such release, announcement, or communication follows the Initial Announcement; (ii) that is consistent with releases, announcements, or other communications previously consented to by the other party in accordance with this Section 3.2; (iii) that is required to be disclosed under GAAP; (iv) that has previously been released by either of the parties hereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transaction Documents without any violation of the terms of this Agreement; or (v) as may be required in connection with any Form 4, Schedule 13D, Schedule 13G, Form 8-K, Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, Schedule 14A, or other disclosure required by the Commission, the Principal Trading Market, or other Governmental Entity to be made by Amazon or the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, to the extent any disclosure (including communications with investors and analysts) relates to the Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby and contains any information inconsistent with the Initial Announcement or releases, announcements, or other communications previously consented to by the other party in accordance with this Section 3.2 or that has previously been released by either of the parties hereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transaction Documents without any violation of the terms of this Agreement, such disclosure shall be subject to the prior consent of the other party (unless it is required to be in such form under Applicable Law), which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, in recognition of the importance to the Company and Amazon of taking appropriate steps to maintain the confidentiality of agreements between the parties from the parties’ customers, competitors, and suppliers, in the event that the

 

-15-


Company is requested by the Commission, the Principal Trading Market, or any other regulatory body or stock exchange (the Commission, the Principal Trading Market, and each such other regulatory body or stock exchange, a “Disclosure Agency”), or legally required to file or otherwise submit any agreement to which Amazon is a party (each a “Disclosable Agreement”), or any excerpt from, summary of, or information relating to any Disclosable Agreement with or to a Disclosure Agency, the filing or submission of which involves or could result in public disclosure of such Disclosable Agreement or excerpt therefrom, summary thereof, or information relating thereto, the Company will (1) promptly notify Amazon of such request or requirement to file or otherwise submit the Disclosable Agreement or any excerpt therefrom, summary thereof, or information relating thereto and any applicable deadline for making such filing or submission, (2) use reasonable efforts to persuade the Disclosure Agency that the Company is not required to file or otherwise submit the Disclosable Agreement pursuant to Applicable Laws, and, to the extent such efforts are not successful, (3) provide Amazon with a reasonable opportunity to request (i) a redaction of any information in the Disclosable Agreement or excerpt therefrom, summary thereof, or information relating thereto (in addition to any redactions proposed by the Company) prior to filing or submitting such Disclosable Agreement, excerpt therefrom, summary thereof, or information relating thereto, and (ii) if requested or required by the Disclosure Agency, the submission of one or more confidential treatment requests in support of such redactions with such arguments as requested by Amazon, including in response to any comments or requests for information issued by the applicable Disclosure Agency, to which, in each case, the Company shall agree absent a reasonable basis for objection (and shall provide Amazon prompt notice of any such objection and the basis therefor and a reasonable opportunity to consider and discuss such objection with the Company), (4) provide Amazon (i) with copies of any comments and all other communications received from the applicable Disclosure Agency with respect to the Disclosable Agreement or confidential treatment thereof (including a reasonable summary of any oral communications or other comments received other than in writing) as promptly as reasonably practicable and (ii) with the Company’s proposed response to such comments at least three Business Days before such response is submitted to the applicable Disclosure Agency, and (5) provide Amazon with a reasonable opportunity to propose revisions within such time period to such proposed response as requested by Amazon, and which revisions the Company shall make absent a reasonable basis for objection (and shall provide Amazon prompt notice of any such objection and the basis therefor and a reasonable opportunity to consider and discuss such objection with the Company), and as applicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts in responding to any such comments in order to pursue assurance that confidential treatment will be granted. The Company will not file this Agreement, any Disclosable Agreement, any excerpt therefrom, summary or portion thereof, or information relating thereto with any Governmental Entity or regulatory body, including any Disclosure Agency, or disclose any other confidential and/or commercially sensitive information in any manner, except to the extent (i) permitted above, or (ii) the Company determines in good faith based on the advice of counsel (which may include in-house legal counsel) that making such filing or submission without adhering to the requirements set forth above is necessary to comply with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.1 of this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 3.2(b) will survive for so long as any Commercial Arrangements remain in effect.

3.3 Expenses. Unless otherwise provided in any Transaction Document, each of the parties shall bear and pay all costs and expenses incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents, including fees and expenses of its own financial or other consultants, investment bankers, accountants, and counsel.

3.4 Board Observer.

(a) The Company agrees that, from and after any such time as the number of shares of Common Stock (including exercised Warrant Shares) held by NV Holdings, Amazon, and any of their respective subsidiaries, equal at least 2,570,567 shares of Common Stock (the “Observer Threshold”), Amazon shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate an employee of Amazon or any of its subsidiaries (any such individual, the “Amazon Observer”) to attend all meetings of the Board (whether in person, electronically or telephonically at the Amazon Observer’s option) in a non-voting, observer capacity, which Amazon Observer shall be approved by the Board if such Amazon Observer is not a member of Amazon’s corporate development team or Amazon Air business unit with experience in aspects of Amazon’s air cargo transportation or related services (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). In this respect, the Company shall provide to the Amazon Observer notice of such meetings and, subject to Section 5.1(c), a copy of the meeting materials at the same time as provided to the members of the Board in their capacity as such. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Amazon Observer will not owe any fiduciary duties or any other similar obligations or duties, including in law or equity, to the Company, its subsidiaries, or its shareholders and may act at all times in the best interests of NV Holdings, Amazon, and any of their respective Affiliates.

(b) Notwithstanding the above, the Amazon Observer shall not be entitled to attend and otherwise participate in, and shall, to the extent applicable, waive notice of and recuse themselves from, such meetings or portions thereof and shall not be entitled to receive any information, in each case (i) to the extent relating to Amazon, this Agreement, any other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any dispute related thereto or between Amazon or any of its subsidiaries on the one hand and the Company and any of its subsidiaries on the other hand, (ii) to the extent such information involves company pricing data or competitively sensitive information regarding specific arrangements or transactions with the Company’s customers, vendors or partners, (iii) if the Company believes based on the good faith advice of counsel (which may include in-house legal counsel) that providing such information would violate Applicable Law (in which case the Company shall notify Amazon of such belief and the Company and Amazon shall consult and cooperate in good faith in determining whether the Company is legally prohibited from providing such information to the Amazon Observer), or (iv) where the Company determines based upon good faith advice of counsel (which may include in-house legal counsel) that providing such information (A) would reasonably be expected to jeopardize an attorney-client privilege or cause a loss of attorney work product protection or (B) would violate a contractual confidentiality obligation to any third party; provided, that, with respect to clauses (ii) through (iv), the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts and cooperates in good faith with the Amazon Observer to provide the Amazon Observer with the intended benefits of this Section 3.4. Any Confidential Information provided to the Amazon Observer shall be subject to, and considered “Confidential Information” under, the Confidentiality Agreement and Amazon will cause the Amazon Observer to comply with the Confidentiality Agreement for the term of such agreement. In the event of the expiration of the Confidentiality Agreement prior to the termination of this Agreement, Amazon shall enter

 

-17-


into a confidentiality agreement on substantially the same terms as the Confidentiality Agreement with the Company. Amazon shall be responsible for any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement by the Amazon Observer.

(c) Promptly upon the occurrence of (i) NV Holdings, Amazon, and any of their respective subsidiaries holding Warrant Shares and vested Warrant Shares subject to exercise pursuant to the Warrant less than the Observer Threshold or (ii) the termination of the Commercial Arrangements, all obligations of the Company with respect to, and all rights of, Amazon and the Amazon Observer pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall terminate and, unless otherwise consented to by a majority of the members of the Board, Amazon shall cause the Amazon Observer to cease attending meetings of the Board.

3.5 Tax Treatment. Amazon and the Company agree to treat the Warrant Issuance (i) as a closed, taxable transaction occurring on the date of the Warrant Issuance, rather than as an open transaction, for U.S. federal, state, and local tax purposes, and (ii) not as a transaction in connection with the performance of services within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code. Amazon shall control the valuation of the Warrant for all relevant U.S. federal, state, and local tax purposes and shall engage a nationally recognized valuation firm to prepare such valuation within a reasonable amount of time following the date hereof. Neither Amazon nor the Company shall take any position for tax purposes that is inconsistent with the foregoing, unless required by a determination (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code).

3.6 Shareholder Approval.

(a) At the first annual meeting (together with any subsequent annual meetings at which the Requisite Shareholder Approval is sought, the “Company Shareholder Meeting”) of the shareholders of the Company (the “Company Shareholders”) following the date hereof, the Company shall submit the issuance of any Warrant Shares in excess of the Warrant Shares Cap to the Company Shareholders for a vote pursuant to the applicable rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, including but not limited to, NASDAQ Rule 5635(b) and 5635(d) (the “Requisite Shareholder Approval”). The Company may postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholder Meeting from time to time for up to 30 days in the aggregate. After such period, the Company Shareholder Meeting may only be postponed or adjourned in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or as otherwise required by Applicable Law if the Company determines that in good faith (after reasonable consultation with Amazon) (w) it is probable that the proposals regarding the Requisite Shareholder Approval will not be obtained, (x) there is an insufficient number of shares of the Company’s capital stock present or represented by a proxy at the Company Shareholder Meeting to conduct business at the Company Shareholder Meeting, (y) the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholder Meeting by Applicable Law or a request from the Commission or its staff, or (z) it is necessary or appropriate to postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholder Meeting in order to give the Company Shareholders sufficient time to evaluate any supplemental information or disclosure that the Company has sent or otherwise made available to them; provided, however, the date of the Company Shareholder Meeting may not be postponed or adjourned more than an aggregate of an additional 15 days in connection with any postponement or adjournment. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts as provided in Section 3.6(b), the Requisite Shareholder Approval is not obtained at the Company Shareholder Meeting, the Company shall,

 

-18-


at Amazon’s written request prior to the filing of the proxy statement for the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company, seek to obtain such Requisite Shareholder Approval at the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company. Amazon may request, as set forth above, that the Company attempt to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval until the Expiration Time.

(b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board shall, subject to Section 3.6(c): (w) recommend that the Company Shareholders vote in favor of the Requisite Shareholder Approval (the “Company Board Recommendation”), (x) use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the Requisite Shareholder Approval in accordance with this Section 3.6(b), (y) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain commitments from each of the directors and executive officers of the Company to vote in favor of the Requisite Shareholder Approval, and (z) include a statement in the proxy statement to the effect that the Board recommends that the Company Shareholders vote in favor of the Requisite Shareholder Approval. The Company shall engage an appropriate proxy solicitor to perform customary and reasonable solicitation efforts, solely at the Company’s expense, in order to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval.

(c) Amazon shall have the right, at its option, to require the Company to negotiate in good faith with Amazon to amend the terms of the Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in order to ensure that Amazon obtains all of the benefits intended to be conferred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, if the Board in good faith determines (based on the advice of outside legal counsel) that the following actions were necessary for the Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, and took any of such following actions: (i) failing to make the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) withdrawing, changing, or qualifying in any manner adverse to Amazon, the Company Board Recommendation or (iii) failing to include the Company Board Recommendation in the proxy statement when disseminated to the Company Shareholders; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.6(c) shall not apply if the Company Board Recommendation has been made and remains in effect and the Company complies with this Agreement but fails to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval.

(d) In connection with the Company Shareholder Meeting, the Company shall promptly prepare (and Amazon shall reasonably cooperate with the Company to prepare) and file with the Commission a preliminary proxy statement, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to respond to any comments of the Commission or its staff and to cause a definitive proxy statement related to such meeting to be mailed to the Company Shareholders as promptly as practicable after clearance thereof by the Commission. The Company shall notify Amazon promptly (and in any event, within two Business Days) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission or its staff with respect to the proxy statement and of any request by the Commission or its staff for amendments or supplements to such proxy statement or for additional information and shall supply Amazon with copies of all correspondence between the Company or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Commission or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to such proxy statement. If at any time prior to the Company Shareholder Meeting there shall occur any event or the Company becomes aware of any information that is required by Applicable Law to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the proxy statement, the

 

-19-


Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and make available to the Company Shareholders such an amendment or supplement. To the extent that any information in the proxy statement shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and furnish to the Company Shareholders an amendment or supplement to correct such information to the extent required by Applicable Laws. The Company shall consult with Amazon prior to filing any proxy statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or responding to any comments from the Commission or its staff with respect thereto, and provide Amazon with no less than two full Business Days to comment thereon, and consider in good faith any comments proposed by Amazon.

(e) The Company shall take reasonable measures to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Company Shareholder Meeting are solicited in compliance with Applicable Law. The Company shall regularly provide updates to Amazon on voting totals with respect to the Requisite Shareholder Approval.

(f) Amazon shall furnish the Company all information reasonably requested by the Company concerning itself, its Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the proxy statement in connection with the Company Shareholder Meeting.

(x) publicly disclose any intention, plan, or proposal with respect to any of the foregoing.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4.6 shall not prohibit Amazon from exercising any rights or taking any action under the Commercial Arrangement. Amazon shall not be deemed in breach of this Section 4.6 if Amazon or any of its subsidiaries acquires Equity Securities, Derivative Instruments, or debt securities of the Company in an amount representing less than two percent of such outstanding Equity Securities, Derivative Instruments, or debt securities and promptly sells or otherwise disposes of such Equity Securities, Derivative Instruments, or debt securities. In addition, Amazon shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall not permit any of its subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to contest the validity of this Section 4.6 or, subject to Section 4.6(b), seek a waiver, amendment, or release of any provisions of this Section 4.6 (including this sentence) (whether by legal action or otherwise).

 

-25-


(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents, including Section 4.6(a) hereof, Amazon shall not be prohibited or restricted from making and submitting to the Company and/or the Board any Acquisition Proposal that is not intended to, and would not reasonably be expected to, require the Company to disclose such proposal, or any confidential request for the Company and/or the Board to waive, amend, or provide a release of any provision of this Section 4.6 (whether or not in connection with such Acquisition Proposal); provided that any such Acquisition Proposal and/or confidential request shall by its terms terminate if it is publicly disclosed or announced by Amazon (except in the event that such public disclosure is required by Applicable Law) without the prior approval of the Board. If the Company (through the Board or otherwise) shall have commenced a process to solicit Acquisition Proposals from third parties, then the Company will promptly notify Amazon of such determination (it being understood that any information provided to Amazon in connection with such notice, including, without limitation, the fact that the Company has provided such notice to Amazon, shall be kept confidential by Amazon, except to the extent information is permitted to be disclosed or used by Section 5.1(c)).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 4.6 shall become void and of no further force and effect (i) upon the public announcement by the Company that it has entered into a definitive agreement with a single Person or single Group other than Amazon or any of its subsidiaries for a transaction involving an Acquisition Transaction or (ii) if any single Person or single Group other than Amazon or any of its subsidiaries commences a tender or exchange offer, which, if consummated, would constitute an Acquisition Transaction; provided, however, that with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, Amazon shall not have materially breached any of the provisions of this Section 4.6.

(d) An “Amazon Standstill Termination Event” shall be deemed to occur if, as of the end of any Business Day following the date of this Agreement, Amazon and its subsidiaries Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock collectively representing less than five percent of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such calculation of Beneficially Own shall be made inclusive of all Warrant Shares subject to issuance pursuant to the Warrant (whether or not the Warrant, or portion there, is then exercisable, but taking into account any Warrant Shares previously Transferred) and without regard for the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, that if the Beneficial Ownership of Amazon and its subsidiaries collectively represents at least five percent of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at any time within one year following such occurrence, then the provisions of this Section 4.6 shall immediately again become applicable to Amazon.

4.7 Right of Notice. If at any time the Company proposes to enter into a definitive agreement (or any agreement providing for exclusive negotiation thereof) with any single Person or single Group (excluding Amazon or any of its subsidiaries) for the purpose of consummating an Acquisition Transaction, the Company shall promptly, and in any event no later than ten days prior to entering into such agreement, provide written notice to Amazon, which notice shall (i) be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement and (ii) contain a summary of the material terms of such proposed Acquisition Transaction, including the purchase price and form of consideration but not the identify the acquiror. The Company shall not be required to provide (a) the notice set forth in this Section 4.7 if at any time in the prior 90 days the Company has sent a

 

-26-


notice to Amazon in connection with a customary market check, which notice shall (I) be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement and (II) contain the information set forth in clause (ii) above to the extent available at such time, and (b) additional notices with respect to a proposed Acquisition Transaction in the event of an amendment to the price or terms of such proposed Acquisition Transaction or entry into another definitive agreement with respect to such proposed Acquisition Transaction. Promptly upon the termination of the Commercial Arrangements, all obligations of the Company with respect to, and all rights of, Amazon pursuant to this Section 4.7 shall terminate.

4.8 Management Meetings. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Amazon, the Company’s senior management shall meet at least one time per fiscal quarter with Amazon’s senior management to review and discuss the Commercial Arrangements. Promptly upon the termination of the Commercial Arrangements, all obligations of the Company with respect to, and all rights of, Amazon pursuant to this Section 4.8 shall terminate.

(ii) by Amazon or any of its Representatives to the extent the Company consents in writing;

(iii) by Amazon or any of its Representatives to a potential Transferee (so long as such Transfer is permitted hereunder); provided, that such Transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.1(c) (or a confidentiality agreement having restrictions substantially similar to this Section 5.1(c)); or

(iv) by Amazon or any of its Representatives to the extent that Amazon or such Representative has been advised by its counsel that such disclosure is required to be made by it under Applicable Law or by a Governmental Entity; provided, that prior to making such disclosure, such Person uses commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, including, to the extent practicable and permitted by Applicable Law, consulting with the Company regarding such disclosure, and if reasonably requested by the Company, assisting the Company, at the Company’s expense, in seeking a protective order to prevent the requested disclosure; provided, further, that Amazon or such Representative, as the case may be, uses commercially reasonable efforts to disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information as is requested by the applicable Governmental Entity or as is, based on the advice of its counsel, legally required or compelled; and provided, further, that the parties hereto expressly agree that notwithstanding anything in the Confidentiality Agreement or any other confidentiality

In furtherance thereof, the Company shall be liable for and promptly indemnify Amazon for all Losses incurred by Amazon or its Affiliates that arise out of or relate to the Shelf Registration Statement not being continuously effective because of the unavailability of audited or other required financial statements of the Company or any other Person.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, from time to time, by providing written notice to the Holders, to require such Holders to suspend the use of the prospectus for sales of Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement during any Blackout Period. In the event of a Blackout Period, the Company shall deliver to the Holders a certificate signed by either the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of the Company certifying that, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the conditions described in the definition of Blackout Period are met. Such certificate shall contain an approximation of the anticipated delay. Upon such notice by the Company, each of the Holders covenants that it shall, subject to Applicable Law, keep the fact of any such notice strictly confidential and promptly halt any offer, sale, trading, or other Transfer by it or any of its Affiliates of any Registrable Securities for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and promptly halt any use, publication, dissemination, or distribution of the Shelf Registration Statement, each prospectus included therein, and any amendment or supplement thereto by it and any of its Affiliates for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and, if so directed in writing by the Company, will deliver to the Company any copies then in such Holder’s possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that was in effect at the time of receipt of such notice.

(d) After the expiration of any Blackout Period and without any further request from a Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company, to the extent necessary, shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any document incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(e) At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if any Holder delivers a notice to the Company (a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that it intends to sell all or part of its Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Offering”), then the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no other holders of securities of the Company shall be entitled to receive any notice of or have its securities included in any such Shelf Offering, including any block sale off of the Shelf Registration Statement.

(f) Any time that a Shelf Offering involves a marketed underwritten Shelf Offering, the Company shall select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) that will serve as managing underwriters (including which such managing underwriters will serve as lead or co-lead) and underwriters with respect to the offering of such Registrable Securities; provided, that such investment banker(s) and manager(s) shall be reasonably acceptable to the applicable Holder (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

6.2 Piggyback Registrations.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, whenever the Company proposes to register any Common Stock under the Securities Act in an Underwritten Offering (a “Piggyback Registration”), whether for its own account or for the account of others, the Company shall give all Holders of Registrable Securities (each, a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) prompt written notice thereof (but not less than ten Business Days prior to the filing by the Company with the Commission of any registration statement with respect thereto); provided that, Piggyback Registrations shall not include (i) any “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, or (ii) any Underwritten Offering priced by 11:59 p.m. Hawaiian Time on the first full Business Day following the day of the announcement of such offering. Such notice (a “Piggyback Notice”) shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable) proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such registration statement with the Commission, the proposed means of distribution, the proposed managing underwriter(s), and a good faith estimate by the Company of the proposed minimum offering price of such shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable), in each case to the extent then known. Subject to Section 6.2(b), the Company shall include in each such Piggyback Registration all Registrable Securities held by Holders (a “Piggyback Seller”) with respect to which the Company has received written requests (which written requests shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be disposed of by such Piggyback Seller) for inclusion therein within ten days after such Piggyback Notice is received by such Piggyback Seller.

(b) In connection with a Piggyback Registration that involves an Underwritten Offering, if the lead managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Company that, in its opinion, the inclusion of all the securities sought to be included in such Piggyback Registration by (w) the Company, (x) other Persons who have sought to have shares of Common Stock registered in such Piggyback Registration pursuant to rights to demand (other than pursuant to so-called

 

-31-


“piggyback” or other incidental or participation registration rights) such registration (such Persons being “Other Demanding Sellers”), (y) the Piggyback Sellers, and (z) any other proposed sellers of shares of Common Stock (such Persons being “Other Proposed Sellers”), as the case may be, would materially and adversely affect the success thereof, then the Company shall include in the registration statement applicable to such Piggyback Registration only such securities as the Company is so advised by such lead managing underwriter(s) can be sold without such an effect, as follows and in the following order of priority:

(i) if the Piggyback Registration relates to an offering for the Company’s own account, then (A) first, such number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable) to be sold by the Company as the Company, in its reasonable judgment, shall have determined, (B) second, Registrable Securities of Piggyback Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Piggyback Sellers, (C) third, shares of Common Stock sought to be registered by Other Demanding Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by such Other Demanding Sellers, and (D) fourth, other shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Other Proposed Sellers; or

(ii) if the Piggyback Registration relates to an offering other than for the Company’s own account, then (A) first, such number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable) sought to be registered by each Other Demanding Seller pro rata in proportion to the number of securities sought to be registered by all such Other Demanding Sellers, (B) second, Registrable Securities of Piggyback Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Piggyback Sellers, (C) third, shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company, and (D) fourth, other shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Other Proposed Sellers.

(c) For clarity, in connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Section 6.2 for the Company’s account, the Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Piggyback Seller in the Underwritten Offering unless such Piggyback Seller accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s), which shall be selected by the Company.

(d) If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable) as set forth in this Section 6.2 and prior to the time the registration statement filed in connection with such Piggyback Registration is declared effective, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such shares of Common Stock (or other securities, as applicable), the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Piggyback Sellers within five Business Days thereof and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such particular withdrawn or abandoned Piggyback Registration.

Any Holder having notified the Company to include any or all of its Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration shall have the right to withdraw any such notice with respect to any or all of the Registrable Securities designated by it for registration by giving written notice to such effect to the Company prior to the effective date of such registration statement. In the event of any such withdrawal, the Company shall not include such Registrable Securities in the applicable registration. No such withdrawal shall affect the obligations of the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities not so withdrawn.

6.3 Holdback Agreements.

(a) Amazon shall enter into customary agreements restricting the sale or distribution of Equity Securities of the Company (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to the extent required by the lead managing underwriter(s) with respect to an applicable Underwritten Offering in which Amazon participates during the period commencing on the date of the request (which shall be no earlier than 14 days prior to the expected “pricing” of such Underwritten Offering) and continuing for not more than 90 days after the date of the “final” prospectus (or “final” prospectus supplement if the Underwritten Offering is made pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement), pursuant to which such Underwritten Offering shall be made. The Company shall not include securities of any other holder in such an Underwritten Offering unless such other holder enters into a customary agreement on terms no more permissive to such other holder as the terms of any similar agreement entered into by Amazon restricting the sale or distribution of Equity Securities of the Company (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act).

(b) If any Shelf Offering involves an Underwritten Offering, the Company will not effect any sale or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock) (other than a Form S-4 or Form S-8) for its own account within 90 days (plus an extension period as may be proposed by the lead managing underwriter(s) for such Underwritten Offering to address FINRA regulations regarding the publication of research, or such shorter periods as the lead managing underwriter(s) may agree with the Company) after the effective date of such registration except as may otherwise be agreed between the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s) of such Underwritten Offering.

6.4 Registration Procedures.

(v) use commercially reasonable efforts to (I) register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities laws or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the Holders and any underwriter shall reasonably request, (II) keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such registration statement is required to be kept effective, and (III) take any other action which may be necessary or reasonably advisable to enable such Holders and underwriters to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities, except that the Company shall not for any such

The above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting or similar agreement or as and to the extent required thereunder;

(xiii) cooperate with the Holders and the lead managing underwriter(s) to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of book entries (which shall not bear any restrictive legends unless required under Applicable Law) representing securities sold under any registration statement and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the lead managing underwriter(s) or such Holders may request and keep available and make available to the Company’s transfer agent prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement a supply of such certificates;

(xiv) cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA;

All fees and expenses incident to the Company’s performance of its obligations under this Article VI, including (a) all registration and filing fees, including all fees and expenses of compliance with securities and “blue sky” laws (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters in connection with “blue sky” qualifications of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 6.4(a)(v)) and all fees and expenses associated with filings required to be made with FINRA (including, if applicable, the fees and expenses of any “qualified independent underwriter” as such term is defined in FINRA Rule 5121), (b) all printing (including expenses of printing certificates for the Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by Amazon) and copying expenses, (c) all messenger, telephone, and delivery expenses, (d) all fees and expenses of the Company’s independent certified public accountants and counsel (including with respect to “comfort” letters and opinions), (e) expenses of the Company incurred in connection with any “road show,” other than any expense paid or payable by the underwriters, and (f) reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one counsel for all Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement, which counsel shall be selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith, shall be borne solely by the Company whether or not any registration statement is filed or becomes effective.

Registrable Securities in such registration statement of the information, documents, and instruments from such Holder that the Company or any underwriter reasonably requests in connection with such registration statement, including a questionnaire, custody agreement, power of attorney, lock-up letter, and underwriting agreement (the “Requested Information”). If the Company has not received, on or before the second Business Day before the expected filing date, the Requested Information from such Holder, the Company may file the registration statement without including Registrable Securities of such Holder. The failure to so include in any registration statement the Registrable Securities of a Holder (with regard to that registration statement) shall not result in any liability on the part of the Company to such Holder.

(b) The Company shall not grant to any Person any demand, piggyback, or shelf registration rights the terms of which are senior to or conflict with the rights granted to Amazon hereunder without the prior written consent of Amazon. If Amazon provides such consent, Amazon and the Company shall amend this Agreement to grant Amazon any such senior demand, piggyback, or shelf registration rights.

6.7 Registration Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees, without limitation as to time, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, and partners, each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such Holder or such other indemnified Person and the officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, and partners of each such controlling Person, each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such underwriter from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of, caused by, resulting from, or relating to any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (without limitation of the preceding portions of this Section 6.7(a)) will reimburse each such Holder, each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, and partners and each such Person who controls each such Holder and the officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, managers, partners, accountants, attorneys, and agents of each such controlling Person, each such underwriter, and each such Person who controls any such underwriter for any reasonable, customary, and reasonably documented legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, Loss, damage, liability, or action, except insofar as the same are caused by any information furnished in writing to the Company by any Holder expressly for use therein.

(b) In connection with any registration statement in which a Holder is participating, without limitation as to time, each such Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its directors, officers, and employees and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of, caused by, resulting from, or

 

-39-


relating to any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (without limitation of the preceding portions of this Section 6.7(b)) will reimburse the Company, its directors, officers, and employees and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) for any reasonable, customary, and reasonably documented legal and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, Loss, damage, liability, or action, in each case solely to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder for inclusion in such registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall be liable under this Section 6.7(b) for amounts in excess of the gross proceeds (after deducting any underwriting discount or commission) received by such Holder from its sale of Registrable Securities in connection with the offering that gave rise to such liability.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not release the indemnifying party from its obligation, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to provide such notice on a timely basis.

(d) In any case in which any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof and acknowledging the obligations of the indemnifying party with respect to such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate, and settle the matter in question in accordance with this paragraph) be liable to such indemnified party hereunder for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation, supervision, and monitoring (unless (i) such indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that (A) there may be defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to the defenses available to such indemnifying party or (B) such action involves, or is reasonably likely to have an effect beyond, the scope of matters that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.7, or (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed within a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and the indemnified party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such delay, and in either event the indemnified party shall be promptly reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the expenses incurred in connection with retaining one separate legal counsel (for the avoidance of doubt, for all indemnified parties in connection therewith)). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any such assumption by an indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to

 

-40-


employ separate counsel in any such matter and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party except as provided in the previous sentence. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of an action or claim effected without its consent. No matter shall be settled by an indemnifying party without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), unless such settlement (x) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation, (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, and (z) is settled solely for cash for which the indemnified party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(e) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall survive the Transfer of the Registrable Securities and the termination of this Agreement.

(f) If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions for any reason or reasons other than as specified therein, any Person who would otherwise be entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall nevertheless be entitled to contribution with respect to any Losses with respect to which such Person would be entitled to such indemnification but for such reason or reasons, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements, or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, the Persons’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. It is hereby agreed that it would not necessarily be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall be required to make a contribution in excess of the gross proceeds (after deducting any underwriting discount or commission) received by such Holder from its sale of Registrable Securities in connection with the offering that gave rise to the contribution obligation.

6.8 Free Writing Prospectuses. No Holder shall use any Free Writing Prospectus in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article VI without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder may use any Free Writing Prospectus prepared and distributed by the Company.

6.9 Termination of Registration Rights. The rights granted pursuant to this Article VI shall terminate, as to any holder of Registrable Securities, on the earlier of (a) the date on which all Registrable Securities held by such holder have been disposed, including all shares issued or

Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

8.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns any benefits, rights, or remedies.

8.11 Specific Performance. The parties agree that failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including a party’s failure to take all actions as are necessary on such party’s part in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, will cause irreparable injury to the other party, for which monetary damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. It is agreed that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief including injunctive relief and specific performance of the terms hereof, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, and each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of a party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of such party’s obligations hereunder, this being in addition to any other remedies to which the parties are entitled at law or equity.

8.12 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: (i) the maximum amount of Losses which may be recovered from Amazon and its Affiliates arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be limited to the amount equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price and (ii) any Losses which may be recovered from any party and its Affiliates arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall not include (a) punitive damages or (b) damages that are not reasonably foreseeable.

Such financial statements shall be accompanied by an audit report and opinion thereon by independent public accountants of national standing selected by the Board.

B. The Company shall furnish to Amazon as soon as practicable after the end of the first, second, and third quarterly accounting periods in each fiscal year of the Company, and in any event within 45 days thereafter, a balance sheet and equity capitalization table of the Company as of the end of each such quarterly period and a statement of income and a statement of cash flows of the Company for such period and for the current fiscal year to date, prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied (except as noted therein or as disclosed to the recipients thereof), with the exception that no notes need be attached to such statements and year-end audit adjustments may not have been made. In order to facilitate Amazon’s compliance with its public reporting requirements, the Company shall deliver the financial statements described in this Schedule 5.1(a) to Amazon, together with a certification that, to the Company’s knowledge, (i) such interim financial statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented, applied on the same basis as the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the most recent fiscal year end and reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements, subject to the exceptions noted on an exhibit to such certification and (ii) the Company has made available to Amazon the information required by Section 5.1 of this Agreement. In addition, to facilitate Amazon’s compliance with its public reporting requirements, the Company shall engage a nationally recognized accounting firm to perform quarterly review procedures that result in the issuance of an independent accountant’s review report on the Company’s quarterly and year-to-date balance sheet and statement of operations for each fiscal quarter, which reports shall be delivered within 45 days after the end of the quarter for which the report pertains. In order to facilitate Amazon’s compliance with its public reporting requirements, the Company’s chief financial officer and chief accounting officer shall participate in one or more teleconferences with Representatives of Amazon each quarter to review the financial statements previously delivered and discuss significant transactions reflected for the period of the financial statements.

C. All financial information required under clauses (A) and (B) above shall consist of consolidated financial statements (consolidating the Company and its subsidiaries) unless GAAP provides otherwise.


D. As soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within 15 days after the issuance of the report, the Company shall furnish to Amazon any 409A valuation reports that it prepares or causes to be prepared.

2. Inspection Rights. Subject to Section 5.1(b) of this Agreement, Amazon shall have the right to discuss the affairs, finances, and accounts of the Company or any of its subsidiaries with its officers, and to review such information as is reasonably requested (electronically to the greatest extent possible), all at such reasonable business times, with reasonable advance notice and as often as may be reasonably requested.

3. Other Materials. As soon as practicable (or otherwise as provided herein), the Company shall furnish Amazon with copies of the following documents:

A. Material documents filed with governmental agencies, including, without limitation, the Internal Revenue Service and the SEC, or any other documents or information requested by Amazon or necessary to support Amazon’s tax, accounting, and Commission reports and filings, including providing by February 15th of each year such information as is necessary to support Amazon’s tax reporting obligations.
