15.4Geographic application of prohibition

If any of those separate provisions is invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability does not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other separate provisions or other combinations of the separate provisions of clauses 15.2, 15.3 and 15.4.

(c)the Purchaser may apply for injunctive relief if:

 

(i)a Prohibited Person breaches or threatens to breach this clause 15; or
   
(ii)it believes a Prohibited Person is likely to breach this clause 15.

2.Covenants

 

2.1Company Registration

 

If Slinger Bag proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by Slinger Bag for stockholders other than the Relevant Holders) the issuance or sale of any of its Slinger Bag Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), Slinger Bag shall, at such time, promptly give each Relevant Holder notice of such registration. Upon the request of each Relevant Holder given within 20 days after such notice is given by Slinger Bag, Slinger Bag shall, subject to the provisions of paragraph 2.2,cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that each such Relevant Holder has requested to be included in such registration. Slinger Bag shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this paragraph 2.1 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Relevant Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by Slinger Bag in accordance with paragraph 2.5.

 

2.2Underwriter Cutback

 

In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of Slinger Bag Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 2.1, Slinger Bag shall not be required to include any of the Relevant Holders’ Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Relevant Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between Slinger Bag and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by Slinger Bag. If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by Slinger Bag) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then Slinger Bag shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and Slinger Bag in their reasonable discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. If the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocated among the selling Relevant Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable to) the number of Registrable Securities owned by each selling Relevant Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Relevant Holders. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, Slinger Bag or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Relevant Holder to the nearest one 100 shares. For purposes of the provision in this paragraph 2.2 concerning apportionment, for any selling Relevant Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders and affiliates of such Relevant Holder, as applicable, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, members, retired partners and retired members, and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons, shall be deemed to be a single “selling Relevant Holder”, and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling Relevant Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all persons included in such “selling Relevant Holder”, as defined in this sentence.

(k)after such registration statement becomes effective, notify each selling Relevant Holder of any request by the SEC that Slinger Bag amend or supplement such registration statement or prospectus; and

 

(l)use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of, or obtain the withdrawal of, any order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, in each case, as promptly as reasonably practicable.

 

2.4Furnish Information

 

It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of Slinger Bag to take any action pursuant to this paragraph 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Relevant Holder that such Relevant Holder shall furnish to Slinger Bag such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Relevant Holder’s Registrable Securities.

2.6Delay of Registration

 

No Relevant Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this paragraph.

 

2.7Indemnification

 

If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this paragraph 2, then

 

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by law, Slinger Bag shall indemnify and hold harmless each selling Relevant Holder, and the partners, members, officers, directors and stockholders of each such Relevant Holder, the legal counsel and accountants for each such Relevant Holder, each underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each such Relevant Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Relevant Holder or underwriter, in each case against all Damages incurred by any such person, and Slinger Bag shall pay to each such Relevant Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person, all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph (a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of Slinger Bag, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Slinger Bag shall not be liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such Relevant Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person expressly for use in connection with such registration.

 

(b)To the extent permitted by law, each selling Relevant Holder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless Slinger Bag, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person (if any), who controls Slinger Bag, legal counsel and accountants for Slinger Bag, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Relevant Holder selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Relevant Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such selling Relevant Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such selling Relevant Holder shall pay to Slinger Bag and each other aforementioned person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph (b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Relevant Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and provided further that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by any Relevant Holder by way of indemnity or contribution under this paragraph (b) and paragraph (d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Relevant Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Relevant Holder), except in the case of fraud or wilful misconduct by such Relevant Holder.

Page 69

 

 

(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this paragraph 2.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this paragraph 2.7, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defence thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this paragraph 2.7 only to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except as expressly set out in this paragraph 2.7.

 

(d)To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either: (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this paragraph 2.7 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this paragraph 2.7 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this paragraph 2.7, then, and in any such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions or other actions or inactions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, without limitation, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that:

 

(i)in any such case, (A) no Relevant Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Relevant Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (B) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of paragraph 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person that was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and

 

(ii)in no event shall a Relevant Holder’s liability pursuant to this paragraph (d), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Relevant Holder pursuant to paragraph (d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Relevant Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Relevant Holder), except in the case of fraud or wilful misconduct by such Relevant Holder.

 

(e)Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of Slinger Bag and Relevant Holders under this paragraph 2.7 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this paragraph 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this agreement or any provisions of this agreement.

2.8Limitation on Sale or Distributions of Other Securities

 

Each Relevant Holder agrees, to the extent requested in writing by a managing underwriter, if any, of any underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration or offering effected pursuant to paragraph 2.1, not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, any Slinger Bag Common Stock during the time period reasonably requested by the managing underwriter, not to exceed 180 days or such shorter period as the managing underwriter shall agree to; provided, however, that (i) such shorter period shall apply to all Relevant Holders who are subject to such period and (ii) if a managing underwriter of an offering releases any Relevant Holder of its obligations under this paragraph 2.8, all other Relevant Holders shall be concurrently released from their obligations under this paragraph 2.8, on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Registrable Securities held by them at such time.

 

2.9Termination of Registration Rights

 

The right of any Relevant Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to paragraph 2.1 shall terminate at such time as SEC Rule 144 or another similar exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for the sale of all of such Relevant Holder’s shares without regard to volume or manner of sale limitations during a three-month period without registration.

 

3.Miscellaneous

 

3.1Amendments and Waivers

 

Any term of this Schedule may be amended, modified or terminated and the observance of any term of this Schedule may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only by the unanimous consent of the Board of Directors of Slinger Bag; provided, however, that any provision hereof may be waived by any waiving party on such party’s own behalf, without the consent of any other party. Slinger Bag shall give prompt notice of any amendment, modification or termination hereof or waiver hereunder to any party hereto that did not consent in writing to such amendment, modification, termination or waiver. Any amendment, modification, termination or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph 3.1 shall be binding on all Relevant Holders, regardless of whether any such Relevant Holder has consented thereto. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Schedule, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.

 

3.2Severability

 

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Schedule is for any reason held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Schedule, and such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be reformed and construed so that it will be valid, legal, and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

 

3.3Condition Precedent

 

As a condition precedent to the exercise of any of its rights under this Schedule each Relevant Holder agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by Slinger Bag or the underwriters in connection with a registration that are consistent with or that are otherwise necessary to give effect to the terms of this Schedule. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by Slinger Bag or the underwriters shall apply to all Relevant Holders subject to such agreements pro rata based on the number of shares of Slinger Bag Common Stock subject to such agreements.
