relates to discussions between Company and a Noteholder regarding a potential transaction or other business relationship provided that the Company is not otherwise required to make sure disclosure pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules (including but not limited to continuous disclosure obligations or equivalent in relation to any other Alternative Stock Exchange (as applicable)). In the event of

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

a disagreement between the Company and a Noteholder as to whether such disclosure is required pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules or any other Alternative Stock Exchange, the opinion of the Noteholder shall prevail.

 

6.8

At any time while any division or department of any Noteholder is in possession of any non-public information provided by the Company (in accordance with clause 14.1.9 or otherwise) and prior to the market update to ASX (or such other Alternative Stock Exchange as applicable) under clause 6.6 (as applicable), such division or department may not transfer, sell, purchase or otherwise trade in any Notes or Options or any Shares or CDIs issued on conversion or exercise of the Notes and Options.

 

6.9

For the avoidance of doubt, the restriction in clause 6.8 will apply to a Noteholder only so long as that Noteholder hold Notes.

Conversion by a Noteholder

 

6.10

At any time during the Conversion Period, a Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice in the form of a Conversion Notice electing to Convert all or some of the Notes held by the Noteholder and specifying the number of Notes the Noteholder is electing to Convert.

 

6.11

Subject to clause 24, no later than two Business Days after receipt by the Company of a Conversion Notice (the Conversion Date), the Company must:

 

6.11.1

Convert each Note held by the Noteholder and specified in the Conversion Notice and:

 

6.11.1.1

allot and issue to CDN the number of Shares calculated in accordance with clause 6.13; and

 

6.11.1.2

procure that CDN allots and issues to the Noteholder the number of CDIs representing the Shares issued to CDN under clause 6.11.1.1 (which, at the date of this Deed, is 10 CDIs per Share);

 

6.11.2

enter CDN into the Company's register of members as the holder of the relevant number of Shares and procure that CDN enters the Noteholder into the register of CDI holders as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

6.11.3

deliver to the Noteholder (or procure the delivery of) a holding statement showing the Noteholder as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

6.11.4

apply for and use its reasonable efforts to obtain Official Quotation of the relevant number of CDIs (and the underlying Shares) on ASX as soon as practicable on such terms and conditions as are usual for quotation of securities on ASX; and

 

6.11.5

notwithstanding the issue of the Prospectus, to the extent that any action is required to be taken in order to facilitate the on-sale of Shares or CDIs by the Noteholder, to take such action (including, where required, issuing a further prospectus, cleansing notice or disclosure document in respect of the Shares or CDIs) to ensure that such Shares or CDIs will at all times thereafter be freely tradable on ASX.

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

6.12

The Shares and CDIs issued under clause 6.11.1 will rank pari passu with the Shares and CDIs on issue at Conversion and will be issued fully paid and free from all encumbrances.

 

6.13

The number of Shares (represented by CDIs) issuable upon Conversion of any Note shall be determined by dividing the Face Value of the Note Converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date.

Certificates

 

6.14

On redemption or Conversion of the Notes (as the case may be), the relevant Noteholder must deliver the Certificate(s) for the relevant Note(s) to the Company for cancellation. Cancellation of any Note following its redemption or Conversion will be effected by a reduction in the principal amount of the Notes in the Note Register.

7.

Adjustments to conversion price

Undertaking Regarding Conversion

 

7.1

The Company agrees that it will not take any action (directly or indirectly), and will use its best efforts to ensure that no action is taken, that would otherwise result in the inability to issue CDIs or Shares on Conversion. The Company further agrees that it will not take any action that would result in a reclassification of its capital stock.

Adjustment for reorganisation of issued capital

 

7.2

If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date:

 

7.2.1

effects a subdivision of its Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision will be proportionately decreased so that the number of Shares to be issued on Conversion of a Note is increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of Shares which are on issue after the subdivision; or

 

7.2.2

combines its issued Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination will be proportionately increased so that the number of Shares to be issued on Conversion of a Note is decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of Shares on issue following the combination.

Any adjustment under this clause 7.2 will become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions

 

7.3

If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date makes or issues, or fixes a record date for the determination of Securityholders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Shares in additional Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event will be decreased as of the time of such issue or, in the event that a record date has been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

 

7.3.1

the numerator of which will be the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issue or the close of business on such record date; and

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

7.3.2

the denominator of which will be the total number of Shares on issue immediately prior to the time of such issue or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

Notwithstanding the above if the record date has been fixed and a dividend is not fully paid or if a distribution is not fully made on the date fixed for the payment of the distribution, the Conversion Price will be recalculated accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Conversion Price will be adjusted pursuant to this clause 7.3 as at the time of actual payment of the dividend or distribution.

Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions

 

7.4

If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date makes or issues, or fixes a record date for the determination of Securityholders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in Securities of the Company (other than a distribution of Shares in respect of outstanding Shares), each Noteholder will receive, simultaneously with the distribution to Securityholders, a dividend or other distribution of such Securities in an amount equal to the amount of Securities that a Noteholder would have received if they had converted all of their Notes into Shares immediately before the date of such event.

Sale of Shares below market price

 

7.5

As at the date of this Deed, each Share issued to CDN is represented by 10 CDIs. In the event that the ratio of CDIs to Shares is adjusted (whether pursuant to an adjustment similar to those provided in clauses 7.2. 7.3 or 7.4 or otherwise) then the number of CDIs issued in respect of Shares issued on Conversion or deemed to be issued under this clause 7 will be adjusted to equal the then effective ratio of CDIs to Shares. The adjustments to the Conversion Price set out in clauses 7.2 to 7.4 (inclusive) are all made on a Shares basis (based on the overall capitalization of the Company).

 

7.6

If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date issues or sells, or is deemed by the express provisions of this clause 7 to have issued or sold, Additional Shares (as defined below), other than as provided in clauses 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 above, for an Effective Price (as defined below) less than the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale (a Qualifying Dilutive Issue), then the Conversion Price will be reduced, as of the opening of business on the date of such issue or sale, to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale by a fraction:

 

7.6.1

the numerator of which will be:

 

7.6.1.1

the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale; plus

 

7.6.1.2

the number of Shares which the Aggregate Consideration (as defined below) received or deemed to be received by the Company for the total number of Additional Shares issued would purchase at the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale.

 

7.6.2

the denominator of which will be the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale plus the total number of Additional Shares issued.

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

7.7

No adjustment will be made to the Conversion Price in an amount less than US$0.01 per Share. Any adjustment required by clauses 7.5 and 7.6 will be rounded to the nearest US$0.01 per Share. Any adjustment otherwise required by clauses 7.5 or 7.6 that is not required to be made due to the preceding two sentences will be included in any subsequent adjustment to the Conversion Price.

 

7.8

For the purpose of making any adjustment required under clauses 7.5 and 7.6, the aggregate consideration received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities (the Aggregate Consideration) will:

 

7.8.1

to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at the gross amount of cash received by the Company before deduction of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale and without deduction of any expenses payable by the Company;

 

7.8.2

to the extent it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value of that property as determined in good faith by the Board;

 

7.8.3

if Additional Shares, Convertible Securities (as defined below) or rights or options to purchase either Additional Shares or Convertible Securities are issued or sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers both cash or property other than cash, be computed as the portion of the consideration so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board to be allocable to such Additional Shares, Convertible Securities or rights or options; and

 

7.8.4

if the consideration or price determined pursuant to clauses 7.8.1 and 7.8.2 above (or any component thereof) is in a currency other than the Relevant Currency it will be converted into the Relevant Currency at the Prevailing Rate on the date of the first public announcement of the event giving rise to the adjustment.

 

7.9

For the purpose of an adjustment required under clauses 7.5 or 7.6, if the Company issues or sells:

 

7.9.1

stock, options, warrants, purchase rights, convertible notes or other securities convertible into Shares (such convertible stock or securities being referred to as Convertible Securities); or

 

7.9.2

rights or options for the purchase of Shares or Convertible Securities,

and if the Effective Price of such Additional Shares is less than the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale of Convertible Securities or rights or options, or alternatively in the case of rights or options, at the date of exercise of those rights or options (Exercise Date), in each case the Company will be deemed to have issued (at the time of issue of such rights or options or Convertible Securities or, where applicable, the Exercise Date) the maximum number of Additional Shares which are issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as consideration for the issue of such Shares an amount equal to the total amount of

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issue of such rights or options or Convertible Securities plus:

 

7.9.3

in the case of such rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options; and

 

7.9.4

in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion thereof (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) provided that if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to clauses 7.5 or 7.6.

 

7.10

If the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities that constitute Additional Shares is reduced over time or on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution adjustments, the Effective Price will be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities that constitute Additional Shares is subsequently increased, the Effective Price will be again recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities.

 

7.11

No further adjustment of the Conversion Price, as previously adjusted pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) upon the issue of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, will be made as a result of the actual issue of Additional Shares or the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities. If any such rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities expires without having been exercised, such Conversion Price as previously adjusted pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) upon the issue of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only Additional Shares so issued were the Additional Shares, if any, actually issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion of such Convertible Securities, and such Additional Shares, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of all such rights or options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities actually converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such Convertible Securities, provided that such readjustment will not apply to prior conversions of the Notes.

 

7.12

For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price required under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive), “Additional Shares” will mean all Shares issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

(inclusive) (including Shares subsequently reacquired or retired by the Company), other than:

7.12.1Notes or Options issued under this Deed;

 

7.12.2

Shares issued upon conversion of the Notes or upon exercise of the Options issued under this Deed;

 

7.12.3

Shares or Convertible Securities issued after the Subscription Date pursuant to an Employee Incentive Scheme of the Company (including all Shares that may be issued on conversion or exercise of such Convertible Securities);

 

7.12.4

Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Convertible Securities on issue as at the Subscription Date, including the Convertible Securities issued pursuant to the 2014 Note Deed;

 

7.12.5

Shares issued under any Share Purchase Plan which is undertaken within six months of the date of the issue of Notes and Options to Noteholders under this Deed;

 

7.12.6

up to US$5 million worth of new Shares (calculated based on the VWAP of Shares or (where applicable) CDIs over the 20 Trading Days prior to the private placement, converted, where necessary, into the Relevant Currency at the Prevailing Rate as at the end of that 20 Trading Day period) under a private placement to sophisticated and institutional investors within six months of the date of the issue of the Notes and Options to Noteholders under this Deed at a price that is at least 95% of the VWAP of Shares or (where applicable) CDIs over the 20 Trading Days prior to the offer to such investors;

 

7.12.7

Shares with respect to which the Majority of Noteholders by Resolution have waived the anti-dilution rights provided for in clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive);

 

7.12.8

an adjustment which would contravene the Delaware General Corporate Law or the ASX Listing Rules;

 

7.12.9

Shares issued in an IPO; and

 

7.12.10

Shares issued in an offering following an IPO, provided that, the price per Share issued in such offering is not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the then prevailing market price of the Company’s common stock.

References to Shares in clause 7.12 above will mean all Shares issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive).

The “Effective Price” of Additional Shares will mean the quotient determined by dividing  the Aggregate Consideration received, or deemed to have been received by the Company for such issue under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) for such Additional Shares by the total number of Additional Shares issued or sold, or deemed to have been issued or sold by the Company under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive). In the event that the number of Additional Shares or the Effective

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

Price cannot be ascertained at the time of issue, such Additional Shares will be deemed issued immediately upon the occurrence of the first event that makes such number of Shares or the Effective Price, as applicable, ascertainable.

Sale of Shares in an IPO

7.13

If the Company at any time after the Initial Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date completes an IPO at an IPO Price of less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately before such IPO (after taking into account all adjustments made under this clause 7 up to that date), then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to be the greater of (A) 1.2 multiplied by the IPO Price and (B) the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately before such IPO divided by 1.2. For avoidance of any doubt, the Conversion Price cannot be adjusted upwards under this clause 7.13.

Certificate as to Adjustments

7.14

Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this clause 7, the Company at its expense will, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 10 Business Days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Deed and provide to each Noteholder a certificate setting out such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which a Note is convertible) and showing in detail the facts and computations upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company will, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any Noteholder (but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such Noteholder a certificate setting out:

 

7.14.1

the Conversion Price then in effect; and

 

7.14.2

the number of Shares (and consequent number of CDIs) and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of a Note.

8.

Issue of SHARES on conversion of notes AND EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

 

8.1

The Shares and CDIs issued upon Conversion of the Notes will be fully paid and will in all respects rank pari passu with the fully paid Shares and CDIs on issue on the relevant Conversion Date, except in any such case for any right excluded by mandatory provisions of applicable law and except that such Shares and CDIs will not rank for (or, as the case may be, the Noteholder will not be entitled to receive) any rights, distributions or payments on any record date or other due date for the establishment of entitlement in respect of the Shares or CDIs on issue on the relevant Conversion Date which falls prior to the relevant Conversion Date.

8.2

The Company shall not effect any conversion of the Notes or effect the exercise of any portion of the Option held by Medotrnic, Inc. (Medtronic), and Medtronic shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Notes or exercise any portion of the Options, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable notice of exercise, Medtronic (together with such Medtronic’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with Medtronic or any of Medtronic’s Affiliates (such Persons, Attribution Parties)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Shares

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

beneficially owned by Medtronic and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of any Note or Option, as applicable, with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Shares which would be issuable upon (i) conversion or exercise of the remaining, nonconverted or nonexercised portion of the Notes and Options, as applicable, beneficially owned by Medtronic or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Share equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by Medtronic or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this clause 8.2, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by Medtronic that the Company is not representing to Medtronic that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act and Medtronic is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this clause 8.2 applies, the determination of whether the Notes or Options are convertible or exercisable, respectively (in relation to other securities owned by Medtronic together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties), and of which portion of such Notes or Options are convertible or exercisable, as applicable, shall be in the sole discretion of Medtronic, and the submission of a notice of exercise shall be deemed to be Medtronic’s determination of whether a Note or Option is convertible or exercisable, as applicable (in relation to other securities owned Medtronic together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties), and of which portion of such Note or Option, as applicable, is convertible or exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and shall have no liability for conversions or exercises of such Notes or Options, as applicable, that are not in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (other than to the extent that information on the number of outstanding Shares is provided by the Company and relied upon by Medtronic). In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and shall have no liability for conversions or exercises of the Notes or Options, as applicable, that are not in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (other than to the extent that information on the number of outstanding Shares is provided by the Company and relied upon by Medtronic). For purposes of this clause 8.2, in determining the number of outstanding Shares, Medtronic may rely on the number of outstanding Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of Medtronic, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to Medtronic the number of Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Notes and Options, by Medtronic or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of each Note or Option, as applicable. Medtronic, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this clause 8.2, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.99% of the number of Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Shares upon conversion or exercise of the Notes and Options held by Medtronic and the provisions of this clause 8.2

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this clause 8.2 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

9.

Discharge and release

 

9.1

The Company will immediately be discharged and released from its liabilities and obligations under this Deed (other than liabilities for any breach of, or claim in relation to, this Deed prior to the date of such discharge and release) in respect of any particular Note on the first to occur of the date on which:

 

9.1.1

if Conversion has not occurred, the Redemption Amount for that Note has been satisfied in full; or

 

9.1.2

if Conversion has occurred, the Conversion of that Note has been completed in accordance with clauses 6.10 to 6.13 (inclusive).

 

9.2

Notwithstanding clause 9.1, the Company will not be released from any obligations under clause 13.3 or any other provision of this Deed expressed to apply for the benefit of Optionholders and obligations which it has with respect to the issue or exercise of the Options (or any Shares and CDIs which are required to be issued on exercise of the Options by an Optionholder) as a result of the Conversion of the Notes or the satisfaction of the Redemption Amount in full in respect of a Note.

 

9.3

If for any reason (including under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, fiduciary obligations or the protection of creditors):

 

9.3.1

all or part of any transaction of any nature (including any payment or transfer) made during the term of this Deed which affects or relates in any way to obligations owed or discharged to a Noteholder or Optionholder is void, set aside or voidable;

 

9.3.2

any claim that anything contemplated by paragraph 9.3.1 is upheld, conceded or compromised; or

 

9.3.3

any Noteholder or Optionholder is required to return or repay any money or asset received by it under any such transaction or the equivalent in value of that money or asset,

that Noteholder or Optionholder will, notwithstanding clause 9.1 or any release or discharge under it, immediately become entitled to all rights which it would have had if all or the relevant part of the transaction or receipt had not taken place. The Company shall indemnify on demand that Noteholder or Optionholder against any resulting loss, cost or expense. This clause 9 continues to apply after this Deed is terminated or discharged.

10.4

Following an Acceleration Event (and whether or not an Event of Default is thereafter continuing), the Redemption Amount will become immediately due and payable in respect of all Notes without any further action by the Noteholders.

13.3.1.3

as contemplated in the context of an initial public offering of the Company's Shares and associated listing on NASDAQ or following such an offering; or

 

13.3.1.4

to the extent that, acting in good faith and in accordance with their fiduciary duties to the Company under applicable law, the directors of the Company form the view that failure to make such an offering would be a breach of such fiduciary duties.

 

13.3.2

The foregoing restrictions set forth in clause 13.3 shall terminate and be of no further effect following the date falling six months after completion of an IPO.

Right of First Offer

 

13.4

For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall notify each Noteholder in writing (a Debt ROFO Notice) if it or any member of the Group proposes to or is considering a proposal to issue, incur or raise any Finance Debt (other than Finance Debt of the kind referred to in paragraphs (a) or (d) of that definition arising in the ordinary course of trading) (New Debt Raising) and shall include in such notice any outline terms of the New Debt Raising.

 

13.5

Each Noteholder who expresses an interest in participating in the New Debt Raising within 5 Business Days of receipt of the Debt ROFO Notice (the ROFO Noteholders) has a separate and independent right, but not the obligation, to enter into negotiations with the Company to agree terms for the New Debt Raising.

 

13.6

If there are no ROFO Noteholders, or the Company is unable to reach agreement with any ROFO Noteholders in relation to the terms of the New Debt Raising, the Company may, subject to this Deed, enter into discussions and negotiations with persons who are not Noteholders in relation to the New Debt Raising.

 

13.7

If the Company agrees terms for the proposed New Debt Raising with any person (including a Noteholder), it must provide each other Noteholder with written notice of the proposed New Debt Raising and the terms of such New Debt Raising (Debt ROFR Notice).

 

13.8

The Company shall also promptly provide any additional information regarding the New Debt Raising as may be requested by any Noteholder.

 

13.9

Each Noteholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in up to fifty percent (50%) of any such New Debt Raising on the terms and at the price specified in the Debt ROFR Notice, or on such other terms as are agreed by the parties, by giving notice in writing to the Company before the later of 5 Business Days after the Debt ROFR Notice and 15 Business Days after the Debt ROFO Notice.

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

 

13.10

If multiple Noteholders elect to participate in any New Debt Raising, those Noteholders will, to the extent required, participate in the New Debt Raising pro rata in accordance with their respective Noteholder’s Proportional Share on the date of the Debt ROFR Notice.

 

13.11

If each of the Noteholders elects not to participate in the New Debt Raising that is the subject of a Debt ROFR Notice, then the Company may execute such New Debt Raising with any other party (if otherwise permitted by the terms of this Deed), provided that the proposed terms of such New Debt Raising are no more favorable than those offered to the Noteholders in the Debt ROFR Notice.

 

13.12

No person may at any time be allowed to participate in any New Debt Raising on terms more favourable than those offered to the Noteholders.

Alternative Stock Exchanges

 

13.13

The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect an SEC-registered initial public offering of its shares and an associated listing on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange approved by a Majority of Noteholders as soon as practicable after December 31, 2017. In the event of such initial public offering, each Noteholder shall have the right to require the Company to register the Shares held the by Noteholder (or Shares which would be held upon Conversion of its Notes or exercise of its Options) for sale in such initial public offering in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

13.14

If the Company lists on any Alternative Stock Exchange, and as a result of such listing any provision of the Transaction Documents becomes ineffective or unenforceable, or a right of a Noteholder is materially and adversely affected, then the Company agrees to use best efforts to agree and implement such alternative or additional rights as are necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Noteholders to give them equivalent rights as they enjoyed prior to such listing, or if such equivalent rights cannot be granted to the Noteholders within 30 days after such listing, to indemnify the Noteholders against any loss (including material diminution of the value of the rights enjoyed by Noteholders) the Noteholders suffer as a result of such listing.

24.2.7

notwithstanding the issue of the Prospectus, to the extent that any action is required to be taken in order to facilitate the on-sale of Shares, Notes, Options or securities, to take such action (including, where required, issuing a further prospectus, cleansing notice or disclosure document in respect of the Shares, Notes, Options or securities) to ensure that such Shares, Notes, Options or securities will, on and from the Subscription Date, at all times thereafter be freely tradable, including where applicable on the Relevant Stock Exchange; and

 

24.2.8

in the event that the Company’s Shares become quoted on NASDAQ or any other Alternative Stock Exchange approved in writing by the Majority of Noteholders and the Company remains in compliance with this clause 24.2, then

1.6

If there is a bonus issue (as defined in the ASX Listing Rules) to the holders of CDIs, the number of CDIs representing Shares over which an Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of CDIs which the Optionholder would have received if they had exercised their Options before the record date for the bonus issue.

1.7

In the event the Company proceeds with a pro rata issue (as defined in the ASX Listing Rules) (except a bonus issue (as defined in the ASX Listing Rules)) of securities to Securityholders after the date of issue of the Options, the Exercise Price for the Option will be reduced in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 6.22.2.

Immediately after receipt by the Company of a valid Exercise Notice and payment of the Exercise Price in Immediately Available Funds (and in any event no later than two Business Days thereafter), the Company must:

1.13

An Optionholder will be entitled to convert any CDIs received on exercise of an Option into Shares at any time pursuant to clause 24 of the Deed.

1.14

1.15

The rights of the Optionholders and the obligations of the Company in relation to the Options are separate and independent of the Deed. They will survive the termination of the Deed and will be unaffected by any redemption, Conversion or other event in respect of the Notes.

1.16

At any time while Company is listed on an Alternative Stock Exchange, an Optionholder may elect by notice in writing to the Company for the Options to be exercisable directly into the form of securities listed on that Alternative Stock Exchange, in which case, on exercise of the Option the Company must (except as otherwise agreed in writing with the relevant Optionholder) issue directly to the Optionholder the number of securities as are equivalent to the number of Shares over which the Option is exercisable and must procure that those securities are listed for trading on that Alternative Stock Exchange.

SCHEDULE 5:  AGREED ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

 


WEST\275931237.1386


 

 

aTTACHMENT

 

Summary of Certain Key Terms of the Notes:

Face Value: the Notes each have a face value of US$100,000.

Form and Status: the Notes are direct, unsubordinated, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Company in certificated form, and will at all times rank pari passu in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated senior obligations of the Company (other than unsecured obligations preferred by mandatory provisions of law) and senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated obligations of the Company.

Maturity: the Notes mature and shall be repaid in an amount equal to Face Value plus accrued Interest on the earlier to occur of an event of default (as defined in the Deed) or the date 60 months from the date of issue of the Notes unless a Note has been previously converted, redeemed or cancelled.

Optional Redemption: a Noteholder may elect to cause the Company to redeem all or some of its Notes which have not otherwise been converted, redeemed or cancelled on the date which is 30 months after the date of issue of the Notes, at an amount equal to Face Value plus accrued Interest (“Redemption Value”), upon providing the Company with at least 30 calendar days prior written notice.

Redemption Following a Change of Control Event: following the occurrence of certain change of control events, as further described in the Deed, each Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice requiring the Company to redeem all or any part of their Notes for the greater of (a) the Redemption Value (as defined under “Optional Redemption” above) and (b) the Cash Settlement Amount (as defined under “Option Conversion” below), provided such Noteholder gives written notice of its decision to redeem within five business days of the change of control event.

Stockholder Rights: the Notes do not provide the holder voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until converted.

Interest: interest will accrue in respect of the Notes at the rate of 8.0% per annum (increased to 10.0% per annum if any payments are past due); provided that interest is payable only upon redemption of the Notes for cash. No interest is payable on any Note that is converted into shares of common stock (represented by CDIs) in accordance with the terms of the Deed.

Optional Conversion: at any time following the date of issue of the Notes but prior to the maturity date, a Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice electing to convert (the “Conversion Notice”) all or some of the Notes held by the Noteholder and specifying the number of Notes the Noteholder is electing to convert into shares of the Company’s common stock (represented by CDIs).

The terms of the Notes contain provisions for the adjustment of the conversion price, which will initially be US$8.655 per share of our common stock (or US$0.8655 per CDI), subject to adjustment as described under “Adjustment of Conversion Price” below.

The number of shares of the Company’s common stock (equivalent to 10 CDIs) to be issued upon conversion of the Notes is determined by dividing the face value of the Note converted by the conversion price in effect on the conversion date.

Adjustment of Conversion Price: the terms of the Notes contain provisions for the adjustment of the conversion price upon the occurrence of certain events, including reorganisation of issued capital, certain dividends, distributions and issuance by the Company of equity securities at a price below current market value. If such events occur, the conversion price will be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Deed to ensure the economic value of the Notes is not adversely affected by the event.

WEST\275931237.13


 

 

Restrictions on Transfer: subject to certain conditions, a Note or Option may be assigned or transferred to affiliates of the Noteholder, other Noteholders and to any party that is not a direct competitor of the Company that will hold fifty percent (50%) or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, provided that the Notes may be transferred to any person, including a competitor of the Company, either upon the occurrence of a change of control event or while an event of default subsists.

Covenants: for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not take certain actions, including, among other things, (i) declaring or paying any dividend, (ii) issuing any finance debt (as defined in the Deed) in excess of US$10,000,000, provided that such amount shall be increased to US$25,000,000 following an IPO, (iii) granting any security interest in respect of or dispose of the Company’s intellectual property, or (iv) substantially changing the general nature or scope of its business, subject to such exceptions as specified in the Deed.

NASDAQ Listing and Registration Rights: provisions of the Deed require the Company to use reasonable efforts to seek to list its common stock on NASDAQ as soon as practicable after December 31, 2017. Additionally, as a condition precedent to issue of the Notes and Options, the Company must enter into a First Amendment to its Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement with each Noteholder and each investor that is a party to the existing Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement with the Company dated September 25, 2014. The First Amendment to Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement will be substantially in the form set forth in Schedule 8 to the Deed and will provide each Noteholder, subject to the terms and conditions therein, with the right to require the Company to file a registration statement with the SEC in respect of any securities in the Company held by each such Noteholder to facilitate the sale of such securities on the same basis, and in the same circumstances, as each of the investors that are a party to the existing Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement.

Lock-Up Agreements: Regina Groves (REVA’s Chief Executive Officer) has agreed to enter into a Lock-Up Agreement with the Noteholders whereby she will agree not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, file a registration statement with respect to, or otherwise dispose of (including entering into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequence of ownership interests) any shares or CDIs of the Company or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right receive any shares or CDIs of the Company, subject to certain exceptions as further described in the form of Lock-Up Agreement in Schedule 10 of the Deed.

Modifications to Notes: provisions of the Notes may generally be modified, amended or waived by at least three Noteholders that represent at least a majority of the outstanding principal face value amount of all outstanding Notes acting at a meeting or by written consent; provided, however, that unanimous consent of the Noteholders holding all of the outstanding notes is required to, amongst other items, (i) extend the term of the notes or their maturity date, (ii) reduce the amount of any payment of principal, interest, fees or any other payment obligation of the Company or (iii) change when and on what terms the Notes will convert or be redeemed, cancelled or otherwise repaid or prepaid.

An "Event of Default" includes, in summary:

Failure to pay: a failure by the Company to pay an amount due under and in the manner required by the Deed;

(b)Cross default: finance debt of the Group that, in aggregate, exceeds US$1,000,000, is not paid when due or becomes due and payable prior to its maturity date;

(c)Revocation: an authorisation, approval or consent material to the Company or its business is cancelled, repealed, revoked or terminated or has expired, amended or modified in a manner which is likely to have a material adverse effect (as defined in the Deed);

WEST\275931237.13

(f)Insolvency event: an insolvency event (as defined in the Deed) occurs in relation the Company;

(g)Breach of law: the Company or any of its subsidiaries is in material breach of an applicable law, regulation, authorisation, listing rule, or court order, official directive or ruling of any Government Agency binding on it which is likely to have a material adverse effect (as defined in the Deed);

(i)Listing: CDIs cease to trade on ASX or are suspended from trading for more than 5 consecutive trading days or, where the Company’s common stock is quoted on an alternative exchange, the shares of the Company’s common stock cease to trade or are suspended from trading on such exchange for more than 5 consecutive trading days.

Form of Lock-Up Agreement

 

REVA MEDICAL, INC.

Lock-Up Agreement

[●], 2017

Re: REVA Medical, Inc. - Lock-Up Agreement

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Lock-Up Agreement is being delivered to you in connection with the Convertible Note Deed (the “Deed”), dated as of April __, 2017 by and among REVA Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) and the investors party thereto (the “Noteholders”), with respect to the issuance of convertible notes (the “Notes”) which will be convertible into shares of common stock in the capital of the Company (the “Shares”), which will be represented by CHESS Depositary Interests (the “CDIs”) issued in accordance with the terms of the Deed. As used herein, “Undersigned's Shares” means: (i) all common shares and all CDIs owned directly or indirectly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (ii) all options to purchase Shares or CDIs owned directly or indirectly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Deed.

In order to induce the Noteholders to enter into the Deed and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, commencing on the date hereof and ending on the first anniversary of the date hereof (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, file a registration statement with respect to, or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Undersigned's Shares, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to any of the Undersigned Shares (collectively, a “Disposition”), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Undersigned's Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities or otherwise, including, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the Undersigned's Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from the Undersigned's Shares. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to the exercise of options or warrants or the conversion of a security outstanding as of the date hereof, provided, however, that the undersigned agrees that the foregoing sentence shall apply to any securities issued by the Company to the undersigned upon such an exercise or conversion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement will not apply to transfers by the undersigned of the Undersigned's Shares:

 

(i)

as a bona fide gift to an immediate family member of the undersigned;

 

(ii)

to any beneficiary of the undersigned pursuant to a will, trust instrument or other testamentary

WEST\275931237.13104


 

 

 

 

document or applicable laws of descent;

 

(iii)

if expressly required pursuant to a order of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the undersigned; and

 

(iv)

in connection with a purchase, tender or exchange offer accepted by holders of more than 50% of the Shares of the Company, provided that each of the initial Noteholders named in Schedule 1 to the Deed has also agreed to accept such offer.

No transfer by the undersigned pursuant to items (i) and (ii) in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be permitted unless (a) prior to such transfer, the intended transferee (including the trustee or any trust) has signed and delivered to each of the initial Noteholders named in Schedule 1 to the Deed a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-Up Agreement and (b) such transfer does not involve a disposition for value. For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, "immediate family" shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.

The undersigned understands and agrees that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned's heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns and agrees that it now has, and, except for transfers of the Undersigned’s Shares in accordance with the terms of this Lock-up Agreement, for the duration of the Lock-Up Period will have, good and marketable title to the Undersigned's Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company's transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Undersigned's Shares except in compliance with this Lock-Up Agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts. Each counterpart when so executed shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflicting provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware, or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware to be applied. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal laws of the State of Delaware will control the interpretation and construction of this Lock-Up Agreement, even if under such jurisdiction's choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.
