FORM OF MASTERWORKS INTERCOMPANY AGREEMENT

 

This intercompany agreement (“Agreement”) is made effective as of [  ], 2020 (the “Effective Date”) by and between MASTERWORKS.IO, LLC (“IO”), MASTERWORKS GALLERY, LLC (“Masterworks Gallery” and, together with IO, “Masterworks”) and MASTERWORKS 026, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and is intended to set forth certain representations, covenants and agreements between Masterworks and the Company with respect to the offering (the “Offering”) for sale by the Company of its Class A ordinary membership interests (referred to herein as the “Shares”) as described in the Company’s Offering Circular dated as of the date of its qualification by the SEC, as amended by any post-qualification amendment (the “Offering Circular”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Offering Circular. Masterworks and the Company may be referred to collectively herein as the “Parties”.

 

RECITALS:

 

WHEREAS, Masterworks Gallery has negotiated a transaction whereby Masterworks Gallery, acting as agent for the Company, will purchase the Painting as described in the Offering Circular for the purchase price of $           ;

 

WHEREAS, the purchase of the Painting by the Company will occur on or prior to the initial closing of the Offering and not later than              ;

 

WHEREAS, Masterworks will advance all or any portion of the funds necessary to acquire the Painting to the Company pursuant to this Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Company intends to pay Masterworks a true-up amount as set forth in the Offering Circular and intends to use the proceeds of the Offering to pay any advance made by Masterworks (without interest), if applicable and to pay the true-up, in cash or a combination of cash and Class A shares.

 

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to memorialize their agreement with respect to the forgoing and certain other matters set forth in this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Advance. Masterworks will advance all or any portion of the funds necessary to acquire the Painting to the Company. The advance may only be used by the Company to purchase the Painting. The advance will be recorded on the books and records of the Company and Masterworks as an intercompany loan and will not accrue interest. The advance will be repaid in installments upon each closing of the Offering in cash and or a combination of cash and Class A shares of the Company (valued at $20 per share for such purposes). Each payment that occurs in connection with a closing of the Offering shall be prorated between the true-up and the advance based on the relative size of each obligation. Under no circumstances will any portion of the advance remain as an outstanding obligation of the Company following the final closing of the Offering and the application of the use of proceeds therefrom.

2. True-Up. As consideration for Masterworks Gallery sourcing the Painting and committing to finance the acquisition of the Painting, Masterworks Gallery will be entitled to receive a true-up amount upon the closing of the Offering equal to approximately 11% of the purchase price of the Painting. The true-up payment will be paid in installments upon each closing of the Offering in cash and or a combination of cash and Class A shares of the Company (valued at $20 per share for such purposes). Each payment that occurs in connection with a closing of the Offering shall be prorated between the true-up and the advance based on the relative size of each obligation. Under no circumstances will any portion of the true-up remain as an outstanding obligation of the Company following the final closing of the Offering and the application of the use of proceeds therefrom.

 

3. License. IO, which owns certain intellectual property rights to the name “Masterworks” hereby grants the Company effective upon the commencement of the Offering, a non-exclusive, royalty free license to use the name “Masterworks”. Other than with respect to this license, the Company will have no legal right to use the “Masterworks” name. In the event that the Administrator ceases to administer the Company’s operations, the Company will be required to change its name to eliminate the use of “Masterworks”.
