Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Pursuant to a Securities Exchange Agreement dated as of October 31, 2019 (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among Oz Rey, LLC (“Oz Rey”) and each of Jonathan & Nancy Glaser Family Trust DTD 12-16-98, Larry S. Spitcaufsky, Trustee of Larry Spitcaufsky Family Trust UTD 1-19-88, Bryan Ezralow TTEE of the Bryan Ezralow 1994 Trust DTD 12-22-94, EMSE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Marc Ezralow 1997 Trust u/t/d 11.26.1997, Elevado Investment Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SPA Trust u/t/d 09.13.2004, David Leff Family Trust u/t/d 02.03.1988, C and R Irrevocable Trust u/t/d 11.05.2007, Freedman Family Trust u/t/d 05.25.1982, Freedman 2006 Irrevocable Trust u/t/d 02.27.2006, Haddad Family Trust, Douglas S. Ramer, and Joshua and Julie Ofman Family Trust (collectively, the “Purchasers”), on November 21, 2019, Oz Rey acquired from the Purchasers all $6,000,000 in original principal amount of the 8.0% Secured Debentures due December 31, 2018, issued by the Issuer to the Purchasers on or about May 4, 2017 (the “Debentures”), and warrants to purchase 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”) issued to the Purchasers in connection therewith, currently exercisable at $3.50 per share of Common Stock, in exchange for $6,180,000 in original principal amount of 8% Convertible Notes of Oz Rey, with a maturity date of November 15, 2029 (the “Notes”).

 

In addition, Oz Rey agreed that any amounts that it receives arising out of its investment in the Debentures and the Warrants, including any principal and interest payments and the proceeds of the sale of the Debentures, the Warrants or the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”), will be retained by Oz Rey or distributed by Oz Rey as follows: first, up to an initial amount not to exceed $2,000,000 received by Oz Rey prior to the earlier of: (1) the six (6) month anniversary of closing or (2) the merger of Oz Rey with a public company (with the amount actually received by Oz Rey within such time period, the “Retention Amount”) shall be retained by Oz Rey. Thereafter, proceeds will be distributed: first, to the Purchasers (pro rata in accordance with the amount of Notes then held by each (“Pro Rata”)) any accrued but any unpaid interest on the Notes; second, 100% to the Purchasers Pro Rata until the Purchasers have received an amount equal to the principal and interest on the Notes; third, 80% to the Purchasers Pro Rata and 20% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 10% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes; fourth, 70% to the Purchasers Pro Rata and 30% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 20% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes; fifth, 60% to the Purchasers and 40% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 30% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes; and thereafter, 50% to the Purchasers and 50% to Oz Rey.

 

Oz Rey granted to each Purchaser an option to acquire his pro rata share of $4,000,000 of Class A Preferred Units of Limited Liability Company Interests in Oz Rey (“Class A Units”) at any time prior to December 31, 2019. If at least $2,000,000 of Class A Units are acquired by the Purchasers by December 31, 2019, the Purchasers shall have the option to acquire another $2,000,000 in Class A Units at the foregoing price until December 31, 2020.

 

Oz Rey granted to the Purchasers pro rata an option (the “Option”) to purchase Class B Preferred Units of Limited Liability Company Interests in Oz Rey (“Class B Units”) at an exercise price of $1.00 per Class B Unit (the “Exercise Price”). The number of Class B Units purchasable pursuant to the Option shall be equal to the Retention Amount divided by $1,000 per Class B Unit, for a maximum of 2,000 Class B Units to be issued upon exercise of the Option in full. The Option may be exercised upon the earlier of (a) the date the Retention Amount equals $2,000,000 and (b) the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date, and shall remain exercisable for a one-year period after such date (the “Expiration Date”).

 

Oz Rey also agreed with the Purchasers to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all of the other warrants of the Issuer held by the Purchasers to be repriced to the same price as the Warrants, in the event the Warrants are repriced.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

 

The response to Item 3 above is incorporated herein by reference. Oz Rey acquired (1) the Debentures (2) the Warrants, for investment purposes. On October 10, 2019, the Issuer entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Sonnet BioTherapeutics, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Sonnet”), and Biosub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Merger Sub”). Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions described in the Merger Agreement, including approval of the transaction by the Issuer’s shareholders and Sonnet’s shareholders, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Sonnet (the “Merger”), with Sonnet surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer. The shareholders of Sonnet will become the majority owners of the Issuer’s Common Stock outstanding upon the closing of the Merger. Additionally, as part of this transaction, the Issuer will spin-off its current restaurant operations, including all assets and liabilities, into a newly created entity (“New Pubco”), the equity of which will be distributed out to the current stockholders of the Issuer (the “Spin-Off”). Terms of the Merger include a payment of $6,000,000 to the Issuer from Sonnet, a portion of which is intended to repay certain of the Issuer’s outstanding indebtedness in conjunction with the Spin-Off. Oz Rey intends to take the actions described below in order that the Merger and the Spin-Off may take place in accordance with their contemplated terms.

 

6

 

 

(a) Oz Rey currently intends, concurrent with the Spin-Off but prior to the Merger, to exchange (the “Exchange”) the Debentures for a combination of new debentures of New Pubco (“Pubco Debentures”) and cash. In addition, Oz Rey intends to retain the Warrants in the Issuer and may renegotiate the terms thereof. Also, Oz Rey intends to obtain warrants to purchase common stock of New Pubco (“Pubco Warrants”) for itself, for the Purchasers who still own warrants in the Issuer and for T.R. Winston & Company. Oz Rey intends to re-negotiate the strike price of the Pubco Warrants. In addition, Oz Rey intends to add a conversion feature to the Pubco Debentures that would allow the holder of the Pubco Debentures to be converted into New Pubco common stock at a conversion price to be determined. If the Pubco Debentures were to be so converted in full and all of the Pubco Warrants were exercised in full, Oz Rey could potentially own a majority of the Pubco common stock.

 

In addition to the foregoing, Oz Rey may offer to sell assets owned by Oz Rey or its affiliates to New Pubco in exchange for cash, New Pubco debt securities, New Pubco common stock or other securities of New Pubco that are exercisable for or convertible into New Pubco common stock.

 

(b) Oz Rey may consider proposing the merger of New Pubco with and into another entity, including Oz Rey or an affiliate thereof, although the identity and business of such an entity has not yet been determined.

 

(d) As part of the Exchange, Oz Rey may propose that one or two of its designees be added to New Pubco’s board of directors by expanding its anticipated board of directors and not by replacing any of its anticipated directors. In addition, Oz Rey’s designees to New Pubco’s board of directors will monitor the performance of New Pubco’s management team and may, from time to time, discuss with the board of directors any perceived need to add to or replace members of the management team.

 

Except as set forth in the preceding paragraphs, as of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons do not have any plan or proposal that relates to or would result in:

 

(a) The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer;

 

(b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

 

(c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

 

(d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;

 

(e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;

 

(f) Any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure;

 

(g) Changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

 

(h) Causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

 

(i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

 

(j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

 

Reporting Persons reserve the right, based on all relevant factors and subject to applicable law, at any time and from time to time, to review or reconsider their position, change their purpose, take other actions (including actions that could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D) or formulate and implement plans or proposals with respect to any of the foregoing.

This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by Oz Rey and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of Oz Rey enforceable against Oz Rey in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

The execution, delivery and performance by Oz Rey of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, the issuance and sale of Oz Rey Securities and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not: (i) conflict with or violate any provision of Oz Rey’s certificate of formation or other organizational or charter documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Oz Rey, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing an Oz Rey debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which Oz Rey is a party or by which any property or asset of Oz Rey is bound or affected, or (iii) conflict with or result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which Oz Rey is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of Oz Rey is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE IV.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

 

4.1. Additional Payments. Oz Rey hereby agrees that any amounts that it receives arising out of its investment in the Debentures and the Warrants, including any principal and interest payments on the notes, and the proceeds of the sale of the Debentures, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares, will be retained by Oz Rey (consistent with the waterfall below) or distributed within five (5) business days after receipt by Oz Rey as follows:

 

8

 

 

 

(a)     first, up to an initial amount not to exceed $2,000,000 received by Oz Rey prior to the earlier of: (1) the six (6) month anniversary of closing or (2) the merger of Oz Rey with a public company (with the amount actually received by Oz Rey within such time period, the “Retention Amount”) shall be retained by Oz Rey (subject to Oz Rey’s obligations with respect thereto set forth in Section 4.4 below). Thereafter, proceeds will be distributed:

 

(b)     first, to the Purchasers (pro rata in accordance with the amount of Notes then held by each (“Pro Rata”)) any accrued but any unpaid interest on the Notes;

 

(c)     second, 100% to the Purchasers Pro Rata until the Purchasers have received an amount equal to the principal and interest on the Notes;

 

(d)     third, 80% to the Purchasers Pro Rata and 20% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 10% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes;

 

(e)     fourth, 70% to the Purchasers Pro Rata and 30% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 20% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes;

 

(f)     fifth, 60% to the Purchasers and 40% to Oz Rey until the Purchasers have received a 30% Internal Rate of Return on their investment in the Notes; and

 

(g)     thereafter, 50% to the Purchasers and 50% to Oz Rey.

 

Any amounts paid by Oz Rey to the Purchasers pursuant to this provision shall, until principal and interest is paid in full on the Notes, be treated as payments of interest and principal on the Notes and, if applicable, prepayments under the Notes. Upon payment of amounts equal to the principal and interest on the Notes, whether pursuant to this provision or the provisions of the Notes, the Notes shall be deemed to be paid in full. Notwithstanding the Notes being paid in full, Oz Rey’s obligations under this Section 4.1 shall remain in force. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.1 are not in addition to the principal and interest on the Notes, except to the extent, if any, that the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.1 exceed the principal and interest on the Notes.

 

4.2. Amendment to Warrants. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Purchasers shall cooperate with Oz Rey’s request that Chanticleer amend the Warrants to reduce the strike price to an amount acceptable to Oz Rey and that the Warrants be exchanged for new Warrants reflecting such new terms in a transaction eligible for exemption under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, after which the amended Warrants will be transferred to Oz Rey at Closing. Oz Rey shall work with Chanticleer to ensure that, promptly following the Closing and following an amendment to the Warrants, Oz Rey will be able to exercise the Warrants and sell the Warrant Shares on the open market under Rule 144 (tacking the period during which the Purchasers held the Warrants to Oz Rey’s holding period) without complying with Rule 144’s requirements for current public information, trading volume, ordinary brokerage transaction and Form 144 filing and the Purchasers shall cooperate with Oz Rey and Chanticleer with respect to the foregoing transfer. Purchasers make no representations with respect to eligibility for Section 3(a)(9) or compliance with Rule 144, and such compliance and eligibility determinations are the sole

 

9

 

 

 

responsibility of Chanticleer and Oz Rey. Oz Rey and the Purchasers agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all of the other warrants of Chanticleer held by the Purchasers to be repriced to the same price as the amended Warrants contemplated herein.

 

4.3     Option to Acquire Class A Units. Oz Rey hereby grants each Purchaser an option to acquire his pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Debentures he owns divided by $6,000,000) of $4,000,000 of Class A Units at any time prior to December 31, 2019. The Class A Units in Oz Rey will be as set forth in the Offering Memorandum of Oz Rey dated September 2019 (the “Offering Memorandum”). Each Purchaser acquiring Class A Units shall be obligated to execute the LLC Agreement and be bound by the terms thereof as a member of Oz Rey. If at least $2,000,000 of Class A Units are acquired by the Purchasers by December 31, 2019, the Purchasers shall have the option to acquire another $2,000,000 in Class A Units at the foregoing price until December 31, 2020. Any Purchaser desiring to exercise this option shall notify Oz Rey in writing of its desire to do so and shall be issued Class A Units in exchange for the purchase price therefor set forth above.

 

4.4     Option with Respect to Retention Amount. Oz Rey hereby grants to the Purchasers pro rata (based on the principal amount of Notes to be issued to each Purchaser divided by $6,000,000) an option (the “Option”) to purchase Class B Units in Oz Rey at an exercise price of $1.00 per Class B Units (the “Exercise Price”). The number of Class B Units purchasable pursuant to the Option shall be equal to the Retention Amount divided by $1,000 per Class B Unit, for a maximum of 2,000 Class B Units to be issued upon exercise of the Option in full. Oz Rey shall be obligated to give prompt written notice to the Purchasers of the earlier of (x) the date the Retention Amount equals $2,000,000 or (y) the amount of the Retention Amount on the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date. The Option may be exercised upon the earlier of (a) the date the Retention Amount equals $2,000,000 and (b) the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date, and shall remain exercisable for a one-year period after such date (the “Expiration Date”). In order to exercise the Option on its behalf, a Purchaser shall be obligated to give Oz Rey written notice of the exercise of its Option prior to the Expiration Date, along with payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Class B Units such Purchaser is acquiring upon such exercise. Upon receipt of such written notice and payment of the Exercise Price, the exercising Purchaser shall be deemed to be the owner of the number of Class B Units issuable to it upon exercise of its Option. Each Purchaser acquiring Class B Units shall be deemed to have signed the LLC Agreement and be bound by the terms thereof as a member of Oz Rey holding Class B Units. If, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of units, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which Class B Units of Oz Rey shall be changed into the same or a different number of units of another class or classes of stock or securities of Oz Rey or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of Oz Rey other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of Oz Rey, then each Purchaser shall thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise of its Option, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Class B Units immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise, such stock, securities or assets which the Purchaser would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Option been exercised in full immediately prior to such transaction, and appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holders of the Option to the end that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets

 

10

 

 

 

thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof. These provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

 

4.5 Transfer Restrictions.

 

(a) Oz Rey Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Oz Rey Securities, Oz Rey may require the transferor thereof to provide to Oz Rey an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to Oz Rey, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to Oz Rey, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Oz Rey Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.

 

(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.5, of a legend on any of the Notes in the following form:

 

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

(c) The Purchasers understand that the Class A Units and Class B Units are subject to restrictions on transfer as set forth in the LLC Agreement and that any transfers of the Class A Units and Class B Units must conform to the requirements of the LLC Agreement.

 

4.6 Furnishing of Information. Oz Rey shall report to the Purchasers quarterly with respect to any proceeds it receives from Chanticleer with respect to the Debentures, Warrants or Warrant Shares and with respect to any other proceeds it receives based upon a sale or transfer of the Debentures, Warrants or Warrant Shares.

 

4.7 Indemnification. Oz Rey agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’, experts’ and consultants’ fees and the costs and expenses of investigation, enforcement or collection) or other liabilities arising from and associated with any violation or alleged violation of any securities laws, federal or state, related to the Exchange or actions taken in preparation for the Exchange or sales by Oz Rey of any Warrant Shares subsequent to the Exchange, including but not limited to compliance by any party with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

 

11

 

 

 

4.8 Negative Covenants. Oz Rey agrees that as long as the Notes are outstanding it will not incur any indebtedness that is or purports to be senior to the Notes or that restricts, limits or prevents the payments or issuance of equity contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, Oz Rey agrees that following the date that any Purchaser becomes a member of Oz Rey, Oz Rey will not enter into any merger, consolidation, exchange of units, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event that is a taxable transaction for the members of Oz Rey without either (x) receiving the consent of a majority in interest of such Purchasers who are members of Oz Rey or (y) causing Oz Rey to make cash distributions of available cash to its members in an amount reasonably calculated to be sufficient to pay the taxes to be incurred by such members arising out of such transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing, Oz Rey shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, including negotiating with Chanticleer concerning amendments to (and amending) the terms of the Chanticleer Documents, and shall not be in any way limited in its dealings with Chanticleer, subject only to Oz Rey’s obligation to distribute the proceeds of disposition of the Collateral in accordance with Section 4.1.

5.3 Perfection. Oz Rey hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any jurisdiction any UCC-1 financing statements or similar statements and amendments thereto that: (i) indicate the Collateral as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (ii) provide any information required by the Texas Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”) or comparable law of any jurisdiction, for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or similar statement or amendment thereto.

ARTICLE VI.

AGENCY

 

6.1 Appointment of Agent. The Purchasers, by their acceptance of the benefits of the Agreement, hereby designate T.R. Winston & Company, LLC (“Agent”) as the Agent to act as specified herein and in the Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Agreement and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees.

 

6.2 Nature of Duties. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Agreement. Neither the Agent nor any of its partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it as such under the Agreement or hereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, be responsible for the consequence of any oversight or error of judgment or answerable for any loss, unless caused solely by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Oz Rey or any Purchaser; and nothing in the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except as expressly set forth herein and therein.

 

6.3 Lack of Reliance on the Agent. Independently and without reliance upon the Agent, each Purchaser, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Oz Rey and its subsidiaries in connection with such Purchaser’s investment in Oz Rey, the creation and continuance of the Secured Obligations, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the taking or not taking of any action in connection therewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Oz Rey and its subsidiaries, and of the value of the Collateral from time to time, and the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Purchaser with any credit, market or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before any Secured Obligations are incurred or at any time or times thereafter. The Agent shall not be responsible to Oz Rey or any Purchaser for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith, or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the financial condition of Oz Rey or the value of any of the Collateral, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of

 

13

 

 

 

any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the financial condition of Oz Rey, or the value of any of the Collateral, or the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), under this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Transaction Documents.

 

6.4 Certain Rights of the Agent. The Agent shall have the right to take any action with respect to the Collateral, on behalf of all of the Purchasers. To the extent practical, the Agent shall request instructions from the Purchasers with respect to any material act or action (including failure to act) in connection with the Agreement, and shall be entitled to act or refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of a Majority in Interest; if such instructions are not provided despite the Agent’s request therefor, the Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action, and if such action is taken, shall be entitled to appropriate indemnification from the Purchasers in respect of actions to be taken by the Agent; and the Agent shall not incur liability to any person or entity by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, (a) no Purchaser shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, and Oz Rey shall have no right to question or challenge the authority of, or the instructions given to, the Agent pursuant to the foregoing and (b) the Agent shall not be required to take any action which the Agent believes (i) could reasonably be expected to expose it to personal liability or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or applicable law.

 

6.5 Reliance. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to the Agreement and its duties thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it and upon all other matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties thereunder, upon advice of other experts selected by it. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Purchaser to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Oz Rey or is cared for, protected or insured or that the liens granted pursuant to the Agreement have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.

 

6.6 Indemnification. To the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by Oz Rey, the Purchasers will jointly and severally reimburse and indemnify the Agent, in proportion to their initially purchased respective principal amounts of Notes, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in performing its duties hereunder or under the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or in any way relating to or arising out of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except for those determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Prior to taking any action hereunder as Agent, the Agent may require each Purchaser to deposit with it sufficient sums as it determines in good faith is necessary to protect the Agent for costs and expenses associated with taking such action.

 

14

 

 

 

6.7 Resignation by the Agent.

 

(a) The Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties under the Agreement at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice (as provided in the Agreement) to Oz Rey and the Purchasers. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below.

 

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Purchasers, acting by a Majority in Interest, shall appoint a successor Agent hereunder.

 

(c) If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said 30-day period, the Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as the Purchasers appoint a successor Agent as provided above. If a successor Agent has not been appointed within such 30-day period, the Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction or may interplead Oz Rey and the Purchasers in a proceeding for the appointment of a successor Agent, and all fees, including, but not limited to, extraordinary fees associated with the filing of interpleader and expenses associated therewith, shall be payable by Oz Rey on demand.

 

6.8 Rights with respect to Collateral. Each Purchaser agrees with all other Purchasers and the Agent (i) that it shall not, and shall not attempt to, exercise any rights with respect to its security interest in the Collateral, whether pursuant to any other agreement or otherwise (other than pursuant to this Agreement), or take or institute any action against the Agent or any of the other Purchasers in respect of the Collateral or its rights hereunder (other than any such action arising from the breach of this Agreement) and (ii) that such Purchaser has no other rights with respect to the Collateral other than as set forth in this Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of the Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Austin, Texas, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

To effect conversion(s) hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversion(s) hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion(s). The Company shall maintain records showing the amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion

 

4

 

 

 

of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c)     Delivery of Class B Units Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Company from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion, the Company shall, at its sole expense, issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder Class B Units issuable upon such conversion within two (2) Business Days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) in accordance with the terms hereof. The Class B Units are currently uncertificated, and the Company’s obligation to deliver Class B Units shall be satisfied by delivery to the Holder of an acknowledgement of the Holder’s Notice of Conversion and a statement on the number of Class B Units owned by the Holder as a result of delivery thereof.

 

(d)     Obligation of Company to Deliver Class B Units. Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Class B Units issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Class B Units or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion.

 

(e)     Concerning the Class B Units. The Class B Units issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless such transfer is in compliance with the LLC Agreement. In addition, the Class B Units issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such units are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) the Company or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the units to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration. Until such time as the Class B Units issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, any certificate for Class B Units issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

 

“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF

 

5

 

 

 

COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT.”

 

(f)     Reservation of Units Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Class B Units for the sole purpose of issuance under this Section 2, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder, not less than such aggregate number of units of the Class B Units as shall be issuable from time to time under this Section 2 (taking into account the adjustments of Section 3). The Company covenants that all Class B Units that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

  

(g)     Fractional Units. Upon a conversion hereunder, the Company may issue fractions of Class B Units.

  

Section 5.     Certain Adjustments.

  

(a)     Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when all or any portion of this Note is outstanding, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of units, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which Class B Units of the Company shall be changed into the same or a different number of units of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Class B Units immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction, and appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company shall not affect any prepayment of this Note or any transaction described in this Section 5(a) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, five (5) Business Days prior written notice of (x) the date of prepayment or (y) the record date of the meeting of stockholders to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of units, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) unless this Note is being prepaid, the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Company) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 5(a). These provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.

 

(b)     Notice of Adjustment. While this Note is outstanding, should the Company propose to take any action set forth in Section 5, the Company shall send to each Holder a

 

6

 

 

 

notice of such proposed action or offer. Such notice shall be mailed to the Holders, and shall specify the record date for the proposed event, shall briefly indicate the effect of the proposed event on the securities or property issuable upon the conversion of the Note, and shall indicate the effect of the proposed event, if any, on the Conversion Price (after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to Section 5).

 

Section 6.      Negative Covenants. As long as any portion of this Note remains outstanding, unless the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of the Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

 

(a)     enter into, create, incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including, but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, other than guarantees of indebtedness of any of the Company’s subsidiaries;

 

(b)     other than Permitted Liens, enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;

 

(c)     amend its charter documents, including, without limitation, its certificate of formation and LLC Agreement, in any manner that materially and adversely affects any rights of the Holder;

 

(d)     change (i) Oz Rey’s legal name (as set forth in the UCC), (ii) Oz Rey’s principal place of business, or (iii) Oz Rey’s jurisdiction of organization, or merge Oz Rey with another entity, without giving the holders prompt written notice thereof; or

 

(e)     enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

Section 7.      Events of Default.

 

(a) “Event of Default” means, wherever used herein, any of the following events (whatever the reason for such event and whether such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

  

(i)     any default in the payment of (A) the principal amount of any Note or (B) interest and other amounts owing to a Holder on any Note, as and when the same shall become due and payable, which default is not cured within 30 days after notice of such failure sent by the Holder or by any other Holder to the Company;

 

(ii)     the Company shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement contained in the Notes or in any Transaction Document, which failure is

 

7

 

 

 

not cured, if possible to cure, within 30 days after notice of such failure sent by the Holder or by any other Holder to the Company;

 

(iii)     any representation or warranty made in this Note or any other Transaction Documents shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed made;

 

(iv)     the Company shall be subject to a Bankruptcy Event; or

 

(v)     any security interest or liens created by the Purchase Agreement shall at any time not constitute a valid and perfected lien on the collateral intended to be covered thereby or any of the security interest granted pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall be determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unperfected, are subordinated or are ineffective to provide Holder with a perfected, first priority security interest in the collateral covered by the Purchase Agreement, in each case which failure is not cured within 10 business days after notice of such failure sent by the Holder or by any other Holder to the Company.

 

(b) Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder, any Transaction Document, and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 7(b). No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Agreement. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment to the email address set forth on the signature pages attached hereto prior to 5:30 p.m. (Austin, Texas time) on any date, (ii) the next Business Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered at the facsimile number or email address set forth on the signature pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Business Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (Austin, Texas time) on any Business Day, (iii) the second Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.

 

(b)     Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and accrued interest on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Note is a direct debt obligation of the Company. This Note ranks pari passu with all other Notes now or hereafter issued under the terms set forth herein.

 

(c)     Lost or Mutilated Note. If this Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated Note, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Note, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

 

(d)     Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Austin, Texas (the “Texas Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Texas Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Texas Courts, or such

 

9

 

 

 

Texas Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

(e)     Waiver. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.

 

(f)     Severability. If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law.

 

(g)     Remedies. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(i)     Secured Note. This Note is secured by that certain Collateral, as more fully set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
