NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Securities upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), if (i) such Securities are registered for resale under the 1933 Act and the holder has delivered to the Company a representation that such Securities have been sold pursuant to such registration statement, or (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company as to such counsel and to the form of opinion, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made (or was made, as applicable under Rule 144) without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act; provided, however, that O’Melveny & Myers LLP shall be deemed reasonably satisfactory to the Company; provided, further, that no such opinion shall be required to sell, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of such Securities to an Affiliate of the holder of the Securities. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Subscriber shall not make nor has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Transaction Document other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.2.

ARTICLE IV.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Pledge. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Subscriber may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities in connection with a bona fide margin agreement secured by the Securities and, if required under the terms of such agreement, the Subscriber may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the Subscriber’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities.

4.2 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the 1933 Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Securities to the Subscriber or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of the Principal Market.

 

17


4.3 Form D and Blue Sky. The Company shall file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to, qualify the Securities for sale to the Subscriber at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Subscriber on or prior to the Closing Date. Without limiting any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement, the Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, all applicable federal securities laws and all applicable “Blue Sky” laws), and the Company shall comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations and the like relating to the offering and sale of the Securities to the Subscriber.

4.4 No Additional Preferred Stock.

(a) For so long as any shares of the Preferred Stock are outstanding, and without the prior affirmative vote or written consent from the Super Majority Holders (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), voting as a separate class, the Company shall not issue any additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(b) In the event the Company desires to issue additional shares of equity securities (including without limitation, Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock), for so long as any shares of the Preferred Stock are outstanding, (i) for each Financing Extension, the Subscriber shall have the right of first refusal to purchase such additional shares on the same terms as the Securities issued on the Closing Date; provided, however, in the event any such issuance would be in different form than as contemplated by this Agreement or cause the Subscriber to be the beneficial owner of more than 19.9% of the Common Stock (as calculated by appliable law and the rules of the Principal Market), then the terms of such new issuance shall be set to reasonably provide the same economics to Subscriber as would have been achieved by acquiring both shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock on the terms of the Securities, and (ii) for any other such equity financing, the Subscriber shall have the right of first refusal to purchase such additional shares on the same terms as the Securities as those offered to a bona fide third party investor. The Company will give the Subscriber no less than ten (10) days’ notice of its intention to issue equity securities per above, and the Subscriber shall have five (5) days to provide notice to the Company of its acceptance. In the event the Subscriber does not exercise its right pursuant to clause (ii) above within such time, the Company shall be able to issue and sell equity securities to such bona fide third party investor on the same terms as were offered to the Subscriber for twenty (20) days before being required to re-offer to the Subscriber.

(c) By entering into this Agreement, the Subscriber, as the sole holder of Series A Preferred Stock, shall be deemed to have consented to the issuance of the Acquired Shares as required by the Certificate of Designations and the Subscription Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2022, between the Company and the Subscriber.

4.5 Indemnification. In consideration of the Subscriber’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber and all of their shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents, or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents, or (ii) the status of the Subscriber as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, clauses (a) and (b) of the preceding sentence are intended to apply, and shall apply, to direct claims asserted by the Subscriber against the Company as well as any third party claims asserted by an Indemnitee (other than the Subscriber) against the Company. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum

 

18


contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO ANY INDEMNITEE HEREUNDER WITH RESPECT TO (I) ANY INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES TO THE EXTENT SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES ARISE FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL ORDER SUBJECT TO NO FURTHER APPEAL, OF THAT INDEMNITEE OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR (II) ANY SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RELATING TO ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ARISING OUT OF ITS ACTIVITIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH (WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE CLOSING DATE).

MISCELLANEOUS

7.1 Fees and Expenses. The Company shall pay, and hold the Subscriber harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim relating to any placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or broker’s commissions (other than for any Persons engaged by the Subscriber) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of an agreement entered into by the Company. Except as otherwise set forth in the Transaction Documents, each party to this Agreement shall bear its own expenses in connection with the sale of the Securities to the Subscriber.

7.2 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Subscriber, the Company, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the

 

19


Subscriber makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Subscriber, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 7.2 shall be binding on the Subscriber. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with the Subscriber relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, the Subscriber has not made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company or otherwise. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents.

Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (a) upon delivery, when delivered personally; (b) upon confirmation of delivery, when sent by electronic mail; or (c) upon delivery or refusal of delivery when sent via a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

Written confirmation of receipt (i) given by the recipient of such notice, consent, waiver or other communication, or (ii) provided by a courier or overnight courier service shall be rebuttable evidence of personal service or receipt from a nationally recognized overnight delivery service in accordance with clause (a) or (c) above, respectively.

7.4 Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel has reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments hereto.

7.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Subscriber, except in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Certificate of Designations). The Subscriber may assign its rights under this Agreement to any Person

 

20


to whom the Subscriber assigns or transfers any Securities, provided such transferee (i) agrees in writing in favor of the Company to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the provisions hereof and of the applicable Transaction Documents that apply to the “Subscriber” and (ii) is not a Disqualified Institution (as defined in the Financing Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Securities may be pledged to any Person in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by such Securities.

7.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except that each Indemnitee is an intended third party beneficiary of Section 4.5 and may enforce the provisions of such Sections directly against the parties with obligations thereunder.

7.7 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement and the Securities shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement and the Securities shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York (except for matters governed by corporate law in the State of Nevada). The Company and the Subscriber, by acceptance thereof, agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Securities (whether brought against any such party or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. The Company and the Subscriber, by acceptance thereof, hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan 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 this Agreement or Preferred Stock) 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 any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. THE COMPANY AND THE SUBSCRIBER, BY ACCEPTANCE THEREOF, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

7.8 Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing.

7.9 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) filed of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

7.10 Severability. If any provision of a Transaction Document is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid, or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Transaction Document so long as the Transaction Document as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof or thereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid, or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

 

21


7.11 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever the Subscriber exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Subscriber may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

7.12 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Company and the Subscriber, by acceptance thereof, will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. Any Person having any rights under any provision of any Transaction Document shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of the Transaction Document and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company and the Subscriber, by acceptance thereof, recognize that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the other parties. Each of such parties therefore agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

7.13 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Subscriber hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Subscriber enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company or any Company Subsidiary by a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

7.14 Further Assurances. The Company and the Subscriber, by acceptance thereof, shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

7.15 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
