WHEREAS, the offer and sale of the Ordinary Shares issuable hereunder to the Investors will be made in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Regulation D”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), or upon such other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act as may be available with respect to any or all of the transactions to be made hereunder; and

 

WHEREAS, the Parties are concurrently entering into a Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company shall register the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

 

Article I
CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

 

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Annex I hereto, and hereby made a part hereof, or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

 

Article II
SHARE PURCHASES

 

Section 2.01 Share Purchases. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, during the Commitment Period, the Company, at its sole discretion, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor shall subscribe for and purchase from the Company, Shares by the delivery to the Investor of Purchase Notices on the following terms:

 

(a) Purchase Notice. At any time during the Commitment Period, subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Investor of the conditions set forth in Annex II and following the receipt by the Investor of confirmation that the transfer agent of the Company has credited the Investor’s account as set forth in Section 2.01(b) below, the Company may require the Investor to purchase Shares by delivering a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice to the Investor. The Company shall, in its sole discretion, select the number of Ordinary Shares to be sold, not to exceed the Maximum Purchase Amount (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and the Investor), it desires to issue and sell to the Investor in each Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice. There shall be no non-usages fee for not utilizing the Commitment Amount or any part thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not deliver any Purchase Notices or Intraday Purchase Notices during the PEA Period.

 

1
 

 

(b) Date of Delivery of Purchase Notice. Purchase Notices shall be delivered in accordance with the instructions set forth on the bottom of Exhibit B attached hereto. A Purchase Notice shall be deemed delivered on (i) the day upon which the Investor has received confirmation that the transfer agent of the Company has credited the Investor’s account (or its designee’s account) at the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto with a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the number of Ordinary Shares set forth in the Purchase Notice, if such confirmation is received on or prior to 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on a Trading Day, or (ii) the first Trading Day immediately following the date of the Investor’s receipt of such confirmation if received after 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on a Trading Day, or on any day that is not a Trading Day, provided that upon mutual consent of the Company and the Investor, a Purchase Notice that is delivered after 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time may be deemed to have been delivered prior to 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time of such day. Upon receipt of a Purchase Notice, the Investor shall promptly provide written confirmation (which may be by e-mail) of receipt of such Purchase Notice. The Investor shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to designate the account into which the Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to any Purchase Notice shall be deposited. The designated account for settlement shall be specified in the applicable Settlement Document delivered by the Investor, or as otherwise instructed by the Investor via email, and shall govern the delivery of Shares related to the immediately following Purchase Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Purchase Notice is adjusted pursuant to the Settlement Document, such Purchase Notice will be deemed to have been delivered at the time of the initial Purchase Notice that was so adjusted for purposes of this Section 2.01. The Company shall comply with such instructions, provided they are received in a timely manner and the designated account is capable of receiving Shares through the Depository Trust Company or another mutually agreed-upon delivery method.

 

(c) Intraday Purchase Notice. Notwithstanding Section 2.01(b) hereto, the Company may deliver a Purchase Notice designated as an intraday Purchase Notice to the Investor to purchase Shares on any Trading Day at or after 9:30 a.m. but prior to 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (an “Intraday Purchase Notice”), and upon receipt of such notice, the Investor may, at its sole discretion, accept or reject such Intraday Purchase Notice. In the event that the Investor accepts an Intraday Purchase Notice, such Intraday Purchase Notice shall be deemed to be delivered at the Intraday Commencement Time, and any purchases made by the Investor pursuant to the Intraday Purchase Notice shall be made at the Intraday Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Investor accepts an Intraday Purchase Notice, the Company shall be required to comply with all obligations set forth in this Agreement as if a Purchase Notice is delivered, except for the obligation to confirm delivery of the Shares by the transfer agent prior to the commencement of the Pricing Period as set forth in Section 2.01(b) herein.

 

(d) Promissory Note Set-Off. The Investor may, at its sole election, pay the aggregate purchase price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to an Investor Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, as applicable, by (x) offsetting the amount of the aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor against an amount outstanding under the Promissory Note (first towards accrued and unpaid interest, if any, then towards principal) equal to 20% of such aggregate purchase price for the Shares and (y) remitting payment of the remaining 80% of such aggregate purchase price for the Shares to the Company in accordance with Section 2.04.

 

Section 2.02 Purchase Notice Limitations. Regardless of the number of Shares requested by the Company in a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, the final number of Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice shall be reduced (if at all) in accordance with each of the following limitations:

 

(a) Ownership Limitation; Commitment Amount. At the request of the Company, the Investor will inform the Company in writing (which may be by e-mail) of the number of Ordinary Shares the Investor currently beneficially owns. At the request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly confirm in writing (which may be by e-mail) to the Investor the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investor shall not be obligated to purchase or acquire, and shall not purchase or acquire, any Shares under this Agreement which, when aggregated with all other Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Investor and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result in the beneficial ownership by the Investor and its affiliates (on an aggregated basis) to exceed 4.99% of the then outstanding voting power or number of Ordinary Shares (the “Ownership Limitation”). In connection with each Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, any portion of Shares requested to be purchased in such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice that would (i) cause the Investor to exceed the Ownership Limitation or (ii) cause the aggregate number of Shares issued and sold to the Investor hereunder to exceed the Commitment Amount shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required by the Company or the Investor, and such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the number of Shares requested to be purchased by an amount equal to such withdrawn portion; provided, that in the event of any such automatic withdrawal and automatic modification, the Investor will promptly notify the Company of such event, including the number of Shares affected by such withdrawal or modification.

 

2
 

 

(b) Registration Limitation. In no event shall the number of Shares included in a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice exceed the number of Ordinary Shares registered in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby under the Registration Statement then in effect (the “Registration Limitation”). In connection with each Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, any portion of the number of Shares requested to be purchased that would exceed the Registration Limitation shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required by the Company or the Investor, and such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the aggregate amount of Shares requested in such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice by an amount equal to such withdrawn portion; provided, that in the event of any such automatic withdrawal and automatic modification, the Investor will promptly notify the Company of such event, including the number of Shares affected by such withdrawal or modification.

 

(c) Compliance with Rules of Principal Market. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not effect any sales under this Agreement and the Investor shall not have the obligation to purchase Common Shares under this Agreement to the extent (but only to the extent) that after giving effect to such purchase and sale the aggregate number of Common Shares issued under this Agreement would exceed 19.99% of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued and outstanding as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, which number shall be reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of Common Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the applicable rules of the Principal Market (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”); provided, however, that the Exchange Cap will not apply if (a) the Company’s stockholders have approved the issuance of Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance with the applicable rules of the Principal Market, (b) the Average Price of all applicable sales of Common Shares hereunder (including any sales covered by a Purchase Notice that has been delivered prior to the determination of whether this clause (b) applies) equals or exceeds the lower of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the Effective Date; or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price for the five Trading Days immediately preceding the Effective Date, or (c) the Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act and has provided to the Principal Market a written representation that neither the laws, rules, regulations, nor customs of its home country require stockholder approval for the issuance of Ordinary Shares in excess of the Exchange Cap, in each case in compliance with the applicable home country exemption provisions of the rules of the Principal Market. In connection with each Purchase Notice, any portion of the number of Shares requested to be purchased that would exceed the Exchange Cap shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required by the Company or the Investor, and such Purchase Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the aggregate amount of Shares requested in such Purchase Notice by an amount equal to such withdrawn portion in respect of each Purchase Notice.

 

(d) Volume Limitation. In connection with a Purchase Notice where the Company selects an Option 1 Pricing Period, if the total number of Ordinary Shares traded on the Principal Market during the applicable Pricing Period is less than the Volume Threshold, then the number of Ordinary Shares issued and sold pursuant to such Purchase Notice shall be reduced to the greater of (a) 30% of the trading volume of the Ordinary Shares on the Principal Market during such Pricing Period as reported by Bloomberg L.P. or such other exchange data vendor authorized by the Principal Market to distribute official market data, or (b) the number of Ordinary Shares sold by the Investor during such Pricing Period, but in each case not to exceed the amount requested in the Purchase Notice.

 

(e) In the event that trading of Ordinary Shares on the Principal Market is halted, suspended, or materially disrupted during the Pricing Period, the Investor may, at its sole discretion, adjust in good faith and with the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Pricing Period or the number of Shares to be purchased herein as may be reasonably necessary to account for such event.

Section 2.03 Unconditional Contract. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Company and the Investor acknowledge and agree that upon the Investor’s receipt of a valid Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice from the Company the Parties shall be deemed to have entered into an unconditional contract binding on both Parties for the purchase and sale of Shares pursuant to such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (i) subject to Applicable Laws and (ii) subject to Section 6.19, the Investor may sell Ordinary Shares after receipt of a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, including during a Pricing Period.

 

Section 2.04 Closings. The sale and purchase of Shares pursuant to a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice (each, a “Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable on each applicable Purchase Date in accordance with the procedures set forth below. The Company acknowledges that the Purchase Price is not known at the time a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice is delivered but shall be determined on each Closing based on the daily prices of the Ordinary Shares that are the inputs to the determination of the Purchase Price. In connection with each Closing, the Company and the Investor shall fulfill each of its obligations as set forth below:

 

(a) On the Purchase Date, the Investor shall deliver to the Company a written document, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each a “Settlement Document”), setting forth the final number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor (taking into account any adjustments pursuant to the terms hereof), the Market Price, the Purchase Price, the aggregate proceeds to be paid by the Investor to the Company (taking into account any set-off pursuant to Section 2.01(d)), and a report by Bloomberg, L.P. (or such other exchange data vendor authorized by the Principal Market to distribute official market data) indicating the VWAP for each of the Trading Days during the Pricing Period, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

(b) Promptly after receipt of the Settlement Document with respect to each Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice (and, in any event, not later than one Trading Day after such receipt), to the extent such Shares have not already been delivered to the Investor, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer such number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor (as set forth in the Settlement Document) by crediting the Investor’s account or its designee’s account at the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, and transmit notification to the Investor that such share transfer has been requested. Promptly after delivery of the Settlement Document, or to the extent such Shares have not already been delivered to the Investor, promptly upon receipt of such Shares, the Investor shall pay to the Company the aggregate Purchase Price of the Shares, taking into account any set-off pursuant to Section 2.01(d) (as set forth in the Settlement Document), in cash in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company in writing and transmit notification to the Company that such funds transfer has been requested. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional amounts shall be rounded to the next higher whole number of shares. To facilitate the transfer of the Ordinary Shares by the Investor, the Ordinary Shares will not bear any restrictive legends so long as there is an effective Registration Statement covering the resale of such Ordinary Shares (it being understood and agreed by the Investor that notwithstanding the lack of restrictive legends, the Investor may only sell such Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Plan of Distribution set forth in the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act (including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements) or pursuant to an available exemption). To the extent that the number of Shares delivered to the Investor exceeds the number of shares to be purchased by the Investor in the Settlement Document (any such shares, the “Excess Shares”), the Investor will promptly instruct the Company’s transfer agent to return any such Excess Shares to the Company.

 

(c) On or prior to the Purchase Date, each of the Company and the Investor shall deliver to the other all documents, instruments and writings expressly required to be delivered by either of them pursuant to this Agreement in order to implement and effect the transactions contemplated herein.

 

(d) If on any day during the Pricing Period (i) the Company notifies Investor that a Material Outside Event has occurred, or (ii) the Company notifies the Investor of a Black Out Period, the parties agree that any pending sale of Shares pursuant to a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice shall end and the final number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor at the Closing for such Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice shall be equal to the number of Ordinary Shares sold by the Investor during the applicable Pricing Period prior to the notification from the Company of a Material Outside Event or Black Out Period.

Section 2.05 Hardship.

 

(a) In the event the Investor sells Ordinary Shares after receipt of a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice and the Company fails to perform its obligations as mandated in this Agreement, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement and in addition to any other remedy to which the Investor is entitled at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance, it will hold the Investor harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company and acknowledges that irreparable damage may occur in the event of any such default. It is accordingly agreed that the Investor shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent such breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce (subject to Applicable Laws and the rules of the Principal Market), without the posting of a bond or other security, the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

To the Company’s knowledge, the Company and its Subsidiaries (i) have not received written notice alleging any failure to comply in all material respects with all Environmental Laws (as defined below), (ii) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses and (iii) have not received written notice alleging any failure to comply with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the failure to so comply would be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all applicable federal, state and local laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

Any material real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

Section 4.15 Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be reasonable and customary in the businesses in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged. To the Company’s knowledge, there is no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as would not cause a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries possess all material certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to own their respective businesses, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permits.

Section 4.19 Absence of Certain Changes. Except as otherwise disclosed in Section 4.19 of the Disclosure Schedules, since the date of the Company’s most recent consolidated financial statements contained in a Form 6-K, there has been no Material Adverse Effect, nor any event or occurrence specifically affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries that would be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the Company’s most recent consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 6-K, the Company has not (i) declared or paid any dividends, (ii) sold any material assets, individually or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business, or (iii) made any material capital expenditures, individually or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation or winding up, nor does the Company or any Subsidiary have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of their respective creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings.

The Company has not received written notification of any unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim where failure to pay would cause a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 4.22 Certain Transactions. Except as (a) not required to be disclosed pursuant to Applicable Laws, or (b) materially disclosed in the SEC Documents, none of the officers or directors of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer or director, or to the knowledge of the Company, any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any officer or director has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

The Company is aware and acknowledges that it shall not be able to submit a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice under this Agreement if the Registration Statement is not effective or if any issuances of Ordinary Shares pursuant to any Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice would violate any applicable rules of the Principal Market. The Company acknowledges and agrees that it is capable of evaluating and understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

Section 4.26 Finder’s Fees. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has incurred any liability for any finder’s fees, brokerage commissions or similar payments in connection with the transactions with the Investor herein contemplated.

Section 4.30 Compliance with Laws. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with Applicable Laws; the Company has not received a notice of non-compliance, nor knows of, nor has reasonable grounds to know of, any facts that any director, officer, or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any agent, affiliate or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary has, has not complied with Applicable Laws, or could give rise to a notice of non-compliance with Applicable Laws, and is not aware of any pending change or contemplated change to any applicable law or regulation or governmental position; in each case that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 4.31 Sanctions Matters. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company, any director, officer or controlled affiliate of the Company or any director or officer of any Subsidiary, is a Person that is, or is owned or controlled by a Person that is (i) the subject of any sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, His Majesty’s Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authorities, including, without limitation, designation on OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List or OFAC’s Foreign Sanctions Evaders List or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), or (ii) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is the subject of Sanctions that broadly prohibit dealings with that country or territory (including, without limitation, the Crimea, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, the Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic in Ukraine, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Sudan and Syria (the “Sanctioned Countries”)).

The Investor and the Company represent to the other the following with respect to itself:

 

Section 5.01 Indemnification by the Company. In consideration of each of the Investors’ execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Shares hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its officers, directors, managers, members, partners, employees and agents (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and each person who controls each such Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Investor Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and reasonable and documented expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Investor Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Investor Indemnitees or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any related prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of an Investor specifically for inclusion therein; (b) any material misrepresentation or breach of any material representation or material warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby; or (c) any material breach of any material covenant, material agreement or material obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Indemnified Liabilities resulted directly and primarily from any acts or failures to act, undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Investor Indemnitee through its fraud, bad faith, gross negligence, or willful or reckless misconduct. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable under Applicable Law, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities, which is permissible under Applicable Law.

 

Section 5.02 Indemnification by the Investor. In consideration of the Company’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and in addition to all of the Investor’s other obligations under this Agreement, each Investor shall, on a several basis, defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and all of its and their officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Company Indemnitees or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any related prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Investor will only be liable for written information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity, and will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Investor by or on behalf of the Company specifically for inclusion therein; (b) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Investor in this Agreement or any instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby executed by the Investor; or (c) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Investor contained in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby executed by the Investor; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Indemnified Liabilities resulted directly and primarily from any acts or failures to act, undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Company Indemnitee through its fraud, bad faith, gross negligence, or willful or reckless misconduct.

13
 

 

Section 5.03 Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by an Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, as applicable, shall, if a claim for an Indemnified Liability in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Article V, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof; but the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it of liability under this Article V except to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the actual and reasonable third party fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee reasonably apprised as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The indemnification required by this Article V shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received and payment therefor is due.

 

Section 5.04 Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Article V are not exclusive and shall not limit any right or remedy which may be available to any indemnified person at law or equity. The obligations of the parties to indemnify or make contribution under this Article V shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 5.05 Limitation of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall seek, nor shall any party be entitled to recover from the other party or be liable for, special, incidental, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages.

Section 6.02 Registration and Listing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Ordinary Shares to continue to be registered as a class of securities under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and to comply with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and shall not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act or Securities Act, except as permitted herein. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Ordinary Shares and the listing of the Shares purchased by the Investor hereunder on the Principal Market and to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market. If the Company receives any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the Ordinary Shares on the Principal Market shall be terminated on a date certain, the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 24 hours) notify the Investor of such fact in writing and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Ordinary Shares to be listed or quoted on another Principal Market.

 

14
 

 

Section 6.03 Blue Sky. The Company shall take such action, if any, as is necessary by the Company in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Shares for sale by the Company to the Investor pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and at the request of the Investor, the subsequent resale of Registrable Securities by the Investor, in each case, under applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Investor from time to time during the Commitment Period; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify, (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

 

Section 6.04 Suspension of Registration Statement.

 

(a) Establishment of a Black Out Period. During the Commitment Period, the Company from time to time may suspend the use of a Registration Statement by written notice to the Investor in the event that the Company determines in its sole discretion in good faith and after consultation with legal counsel that such suspension is necessary to (A) delay the disclosure of material nonpublic information concerning the Company, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company or (B) amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus so that such Registration Statement or Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or necessary in connection with the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, including to amend the information required to be included in the Registration Statement under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act on the timelines applicable to a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act and the rules of the Principal Market (a “Black Out Period”).

 

(b) No Sales by Investor During the Black Out Period. During such Black Out Period, the Investor agrees not to sell any Ordinary Shares of the Company pursuant to such Registration Statement, but may sell shares pursuant to an exemption from registration, if available, subject to the Investor’s compliance with Applicable Laws.

 

(c) Limitations on the Black Out Period. The Company shall not voluntarily impose any Black Out Period that is longer than 30 calendar days or in a manner that is more restrictive (including, without limitation, as to duration) than the comparable restrictions that the Company may impose on transfers of the Company’s equity securities by its directors and senior executive officers. In addition, the Company shall not deliver any Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice during any Black Out Period. If the public announcement of such material, nonpublic information is made during a Black Out Period, the Black Out Period shall terminate immediately after such announcement, and the Company shall immediately notify the Investor of the termination of the Black Out Period.

As of each Share Purchase Date, the Shares to be sold by the Company from time to time hereunder will have been registered for resale under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to the Registration Statement and approved for listing on the Principal Market, subject to official notice of issuance.

 

Section 6.06 Opinion of Counsel and Comfort Letter. Prior to the date of the delivery by the Company of the first Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice, the Investor shall have received an opinion letter from Cayman counsel to the Company in form and substance satisfactory to the Investor.

 

Section 6.07 Exchange Act Registration. The Company will file in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of it as a reporting company under the Exchange Act and during the Commitment Period.

 

Section 6.08 Transfer Agent Instructions. For any time while there is a Registration Statement in effect for this transaction, the Company shall (if required by the transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares) deliver to the transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares (with a copy to the Investor) instructions to issue Ordinary Shares to the Investor free of restrictive legends upon each issuance of Shares pursuant to a Purchase Notice or Intraday Purchase Notice if the delivery of such instructions are consistent with Applicable Law, in each case supported as needed by an opinion from legal counsel for the Company.
