2. Warrants Cancellation and Exchange. The Company and the Holder agree to the Warrants Cancellation and Exchange. The Warrant Cancellation and Exchange is being conducted in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and the Company acknowledges and agrees that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the New Warrants issued in exchange for the Warrants will tack back to the original date of closing and/or funding in connection with which the Warrants were issued all pursuant to Rule 144 and the Company agrees not to take a position to the contrary. The New Warrants shall have the exercise price and shall be exercisable for the number of Class A Ordinary Shares set forth on Schedule A hereto. The Warrants shall be cancelled and irrevocably and unconditionally forfeited without any payment of any form and without any liability to any party (or any affiliate of such party) hereto. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Warrants will be of no further force or effect, and the rights and obligations of each of the parties thereunder shall terminate, and Holder hereby relinquishes, on behalf of itself, its affiliates, successors and assigns, all rights currently or hereafter existing under the Warrants. The Holder, on behalf of itself and on behalf of its affiliates and representatives, beneficiaries, executors, trustees, administrators, successors, heirs, assigns of any of the foregoing (each a “Holder Related Party”), hereby releases, remises and forever discharges any and all rights and claims that any Holder Related Party has had, now has or might have against the Company and its affiliates under or in respect of the Warrants, except for rights and claims arising from or in connection with this Agreement.

 

3. Waiver of the Waived and Released Provisions With Respect to the Subsequent Transactions, and Consent Thereto. Upon payment of the Redemption Price, the Holder shall waive and consent to the waiver of any rights, restrictions and conditions set forth in the Waived and Released Provisions that would be applicable under the Purchase Agreements in relation to any Subsequent Transactions (the “Waived Matters”). Upon payment of the Redemption Price, the application of any such rights, restrictions and conditions that would be applicable in connection with any of the Waived Matters shall be waived in their entirety, and the Holder shall consent to such waivers. Upon payment of the Redemption Price, the Holder shall waive any right to exercise, enforce, or attempt to exercise or enforce any such rights, restrictions and conditions that would be applicable in connection with any of the Waived Matters, and the Holder shall consent to the foregoing. Such waiver and consent shall apply both retroactively to any actions or events relating to the Subsequent Transactions that occurred on or before the date of this Agreement, and prospectively to any actions or events relating to the Subsequent Transactions that occur after the date of this Agreement to the extent reasonably foreseeable by each of the Parties.

 

4. The ATM Payments Waiver. Upon payment of the Redemption Price, the Holder shall grant the Company the ATM Payments Waiver. The ATM Payments Waiver set forth in this Agreement shall be limited to the matters expressly agreed to herein and should not be construed as an indication that the Holder would be willing to agree to any future modifications to, consent of, or waiver of any of the terms of any other agreement, instrument or security or any modifications to, consents of, or waiver of any default that may exist or occur thereunder.

 

5. Release of Claims with Respect to Certain Matters. Upon payment of the Redemption Price, the Holder shall irrevocably waive, release, and discharge the Company and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and representatives from any and all claims, demands, obligations, liabilities, causes of action, or rights of any kind, whether known or unknown, arising out of or relating to the application of the ATM Payments Waiver and the Waived Matters, including, without limitation, any claims for damages, penalties, or specific performance related thereto. Such release and discharge shall apply both retroactively and prospectively to any related actions or events that occur after the date of this Agreement to the extent reasonably foreseeable by each of the Parties.

6. Conditions to Effectiveness of Waiver, Consent and Release. This Agreement shall become effective upon receipt by the Company and the Holder of counterpart signatures to this Agreement duly executed and delivered by the Company and the Holder.

 

7. No Implied Waiver or Consent. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not, by implication or otherwise, limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect any rights or remedies of the Holder under the Purchase Agreements, or alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, obligations or covenants contained therein.

 

8. Independent Nature of Holder’s Obligations and Rights. The obligations of the Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Investor, and the Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Investor under any Other Waiver. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Waiver, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and Other Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and Other Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Waiver or any Other Waiver and the Company acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge, the Holder and the Other Investors are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Waiver or any Other Waiver. The Company and the Holder confirm that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. The Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Waiver, and it shall not be necessary for any of the Other Investors to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

 

9. Most Favored Nations. The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants and agrees that none of the terms offered to any Other Investor with respect to any Other Waiver (each a “Settlement Document”), is or will be more favorable to such Other Investor (other than any reimbursement of legal fees) than those of the Holder and this Waiver. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into a Settlement Document, then (i) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Holder immediately following the occurrence thereof and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Waiver shall be, without any further action by the Holder or the Company, automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Holder shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be) set forth in such Settlement Document, provided that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Holder may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Waiver shall apply to the Holder as it was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Holder.
