Amendment to Merger Agreement
As previously reported, on September 12, 2019, Glowpoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Glowpoint”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Glowpoint Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Glowpoint (the “Merger Sub”), and Oblong Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oblong” and, together with Glowpoint and the Merger Sub, the “Parties”). On October 1, 2019, prior to the Closing of the Merger (as each term is defined below), the Parties entered into an Amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, in order to reflect the commercial agreement of the Parties, the Parties agreed to amend the Merger Agreement to provide that:
|
|
•
|
Glowpoint’s board of directors will consist of five members after completion of the Merger, of which four members will be appointed by the members of Glowpoint’s board existing prior to closing and one member will be appointed by the members of Oblong’s board existing prior to closing;
|
|
|
•
|
(i) at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), Glowpoint will assume all then-outstanding options to purchase shares of Oblong’s common stock (“Oblong Options”) held by previously terminated employees of Oblong, which Oblong Options will be deemed to constitute options to acquire shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”); and (ii) any Oblong Options held by current employees of Oblong will be cancelled in exchange for restricted shares of Glowpoint’s 6.0% Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Merger Preferred Stock”); and
|
|
|
•
|
the shares of Merger Preferred Stock issued by Glowpoint in the Merger will each initially be convertible into ten (10) shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock and that the number of shares of Merger Preferred Stock to be issued in the Merger will be reduced accordingly.
|
The above description of the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Stock Purchase Agreement
On October 1, 2019, Glowpoint entered into a Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the accredited investors party thereto, who, prior to the Closing of the Merger, were stockholders of Oblong (the “Purchasers”), relating to the offer and sale by Glowpoint in a private placement (the “Offering”) of up to 131,579 shares of its 6.0% Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Financing Preferred Stock”), at a price of $28.50 per share. At an initial closing on October 1, 2019, Glowpoint sold, and the Purchasers purchased, 88,070 shares of Financing Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $2.5 million. Glowpoint did not pay any commissions or discounts in connection with the Offering, and expects to use the net proceeds from the initial closing for general corporate purposes, which may include product development, sales and marketing, and/or general administrative expenses.
The Offering is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and pursuant to reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. As a result, the securities sold in the Offering were not registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. Each of the Purchasers represented that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, and is acquiring securities in the Offering for investment only and not with a view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The shares of Financing Preferred Stock sold in the Offering were offered without any general solicitation by Glowpoint or its representatives. Neither this Current Report on Form
8-K, nor the exhibits attached hereto, is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein.
The above description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Glowpoint and the Purchasers executed a Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 1, 2019 (the “Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, among other things, Glowpoint has provided the Purchasers with certain rights to require Glowpoint to file and maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement with respect to the re-sale of shares of Glowpoint Common Stock underlying the shares of Merger Preferred Stock issued in the Merger (as defined below) and Financing Preferred Stock sold in the Offering and, in each case, held by the Purchasers.
The above description of the Rights Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
SVB Loan Agreement and Warrant
On October 1, 2019, in connection with the Closing of the Merger on such date, Glowpoint and Oblong, as borrowers, and Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), as lender, executed a Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement by and between Oblong and SVB. The Loan Agreement provides for a term loan facility of approximately $5.2 million (the “Loan”), all of which is currently outstanding. The Loan Agreement provides that interest-only payments will be due through March 31, 2020, after which equal monthly principal and interest payments will be made to fully repay the loan by September 1, 2021. The Loan accrues interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus 200 basis points (for a total of 7.00% as of October 1, 2019).
The obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of Glowpoint and its subsidiaries, including accounts receivable, intellectual property, equipment and other personal property. The Loan Agreement contains certain restrictions and covenants, which, among other things, subject to certain exceptions, restrict Glowpoint’s ability to dispose of any portion of its business or property, engage in certain material changes to its business, enter into a merger, incur additional debt or make guarantees, make distributions or create liens or other encumbrances, or enter into related party transactions outside of the ordinary course of business. The Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to perform or observe covenants, breaches of representations and warranties, certain cross defaults, certain bankruptcy related events, monetary judgments defaults and Glowpoint’s de-listing from the NYSE American without a listing of its Common Stock on another nationally recognized stock exchange. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the outstanding obligations may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable.
In connection with its execution of the Loan Agreement, Glowpoint also issued a warrant to SVB that entitles SVB to subscribe to 72,394 shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “SVB Warrant”). The SVB Warrant has a ten (10) year term.
The offering and sale of the SVB Warrant is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and pursuant to reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. As a result, the SVB Warrant was not registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. SVB represented in the SVB Warrant that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, and is acquiring the SVB Warrant for investment only and not with
a view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The SVB Warrant was offered without any general solicitation by Glowpoint or its representatives. Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K, nor the exhibits attached hereto, is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein.
The above description of the Loan Agreement and SVB Warrant and, in each case, the transactions contemplated thereby, is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement and SVB Warrant, respectively, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.3 and 4.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On October 1, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), as contemplated by the Merger Agreement (as amended by the Amendment) Merger Sub merged with and into Oblong, with Oblong continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Glowpoint (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), (i) the common and preferred stock of Oblong issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger were converted into the right to receive an aggregate of approximately 1.68 million shares of Glowpoint’s Merger Preferred Stock; (ii) all Oblong Options held by previously terminated employees of Oblong were assumed by Glowpoint and will be deemed, in the aggregate, to constitute options to acquire a total of approximately 100,000 shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock at a volume weighted average exercise price of $4.92 per share; and (iii) all Oblong Options (whether or not vested) held by current employees of Oblong were cancelled and exchanged for an aggregate of approximately 50,000 restricted shares of Merger Preferred Stock (“Restricted Merger Preferred Stock”). Such shares of Restricted Merger Preferred Stock are subject to vesting over a two-year period following Closing, with twenty-five percent (25%) of such shares (the “Cliff Vesting Shares”) vesting on the first anniversary of the Closing (the “Cliff Vesting Date”) and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of such shares vesting in ratable monthly installments thereafter, subject to the holder’s continued employment through each such vesting date; provided, however, that in the event such holder’s employment is terminated prior to the Cliff Vesting Date without Cause (as defined in the Amendment), such holder shall remain eligible to vest in the Cliff Vesting Shares on the Cliff Vesting Date.
No fractional shares of Merger Preferred Stock were issued in the Merger. Any fractional shares of Merger Preferred Stock that would have otherwise been issued in the Merger were rounded up to the closest full share.
The issuance of Merger Preferred Stock in exchange for common and preferred stock of Oblong in the Merger is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and pursuant to reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. As a result, the securities issued in the Merger were not registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The shares of Merger Preferred Stock issued in the Merger were offered without any general solicitation by Glowpoint or its representatives. Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K, nor the exhibits attached hereto, is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein.
Glowpoint has agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement for the purpose of convening a meeting of its stockholders to obtain their approval of, among other things, the conversion of the shares of Merger Preferred Stock issued in the Merger and Financing Preferred Stock issued in the Offering into shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock.
The Merger Agreement has been included as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Glowpoint or Oblong. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement as of the specific dates therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger
Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties thereto or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement.
The above description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement and the Amendment, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On October 1, 2019, David Giangano submitted his resignation as a director of Glowpoint. Mr. Giangano’s resignation was not a result of any disagreement with Glowpoint regarding any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices.
On October 1, 2019, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, the Board appointed John Underkoffler as a director of Glowpoint. Prior to the Closing of the Merger, Mr. Underkoffler served as the Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board of Directors of Oblong. Glowpoint expects that Mr. Underkoffler will stand for election as a director by Glowpoint’s stockholders at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As of the date of this filing, Mr. Underkoffler is not expected to be named to any committee of Glowpoint's board of directors.
Glowpoint will enter into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Underkoffler in the form entered into with other directors and officers of Glowpoint. Glowpoint’s standard form of indemnification agreement for officers and directors of the company is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to Glowpoint’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 2, 2014.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Merger Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations
On October 1, 2019, Glowpoint filed the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware amending its Certificate of Incorporation to establish the Merger Preferred Stock and the number, relative rights, preferences and limitations thereof. Pursuant to the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate, 1,750,000 shares of preferred stock have been designated as Merger Preferred Stock, and each of the shares of Merger Preferred Stock is automatically convertible, upon the occurrence of both (i) approval of the conversion of the Merger Preferred Stock by the holders of more than 50.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis, present in person or by proxy, at a duly called and held meeting of Glowpoint’s stockholders; and (ii) receipt of all required authorizations and approvals from the NYSE American (or any such other exchange upon which Glowpoint’s securities are then listed for trading) for the listing of the Common Stock underlying the Merger Preferred Stock and the continued listing of Glowpoint after closing of the Merger and conversion of the Merger Preferred Stock, into a number of shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock equal to the accrued value of the share, which is initially $28.50, plus any accrued dividends thereon (the “Accrued Value”), divided by the Conversion Price, which is initially $2.85 per share, subject to specified adjustments (the “Conversion Price”). Based on the initial Conversion Price, approximately 16.8 million shares of Common Stock would be issuable upon conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Merger Preferred Stock (not including any shares of Restricted Merger Preferred Stock, which are subject to vesting as discussed in Item 2.01 above).
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate, each share of Merger Preferred Stock is entitled to receive an annual dividend equal to 6.0% of its then-existing Accrued Value per annum, commencing on the first anniversary of the issuance of the Merger Preferred Stock. Prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Merger Preferred Stock no dividends will accrue on such stock. Dividends are cumulative and accrue daily in arrears. If Glowpoint's board of directors does not declare any applicable dividend payment in cash, the Accrued Value of the Merger Preferred Stock will be increased by the amount of such dividend payment.
Upon Glowpoint’s liquidation, the holders of Merger Preferred Stock are entitled to receive in cash out of the assets of Glowpoint, after payment of the liquidation preference for any outstanding shares of senior preferred stock (including Glowpoint’s outstanding Series A-2 preferred stock and Series C preferred Stock), but before any amount is paid to the holders of any of shares of junior stock and pari passu with any parity stock then outstanding, an amount per share equal to the greater of (1) the then-existing Accrued Value of such shares and (2) the amount per share such holder would receive if its shares of Merger Preferred Stock had been converted into Common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment.
Except as required by law or Glowpoint’s Certificate of Incorporation, including certain protective provisions set forth in the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate, holders of Merger Preferred Stock have no voting rights with respect to such shares.
The foregoing description of the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Preferred Stock Certificate filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Financing Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations
On October 1, 2019, Glowpoint filed the Financing Preferred Stock Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware amending its Certificate of Incorporation to establish the Financing Preferred Stock and the number, relative rights, preferences and limitations thereof. Pursuant to the Financing Preferred Stock Certificate, 175,000 shares of preferred stock have been designated as Financing Preferred Stock, and each of the shares of Financing Preferred Stock is automatically convertible, upon the occurrence of both (i) approval of the conversion of the Financing Preferred Stock by the holders of more than 50.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis, present in person or by proxy, at a duly called and held meeting of Glowpoint’s stockholders; and (ii) receipt of all required authorizations and approvals from the NYSE American (or any such other exchange upon which Glowpoint’s securities are then listed for trading) for the listing of the Common Stock underlying the Financing Preferred Stock and
the continued listing of Glowpoint after closing of the Merger and conversion of the Financing Preferred Stock, into a number of shares of Glowpoint’s Common Stock equal to the accrued value of the share, which is initially $28.50, plus any accrued dividends thereon (the “Accrued Value”), divided by the Conversion Price, which is initially $2.85 per share, subject to specified adjustments (the “Conversion Price”). Based on the initial Conversion Price, approximately 880,700 shares of Common Stock would be issuable upon conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Financing Preferred Stock.
Pursuant to the terms of the Financing Preferred Stock Certificate, each share of Financing Preferred Stock is entitled to receive an annual dividend equal to 6.0% of its then-existing Accrued Value per annum, commencing on the first anniversary of the issuance of the Financing Preferred Stock. Prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Financing Preferred Stock no dividends will accrue on such stock. Dividends are cumulative and accrue daily in arrears. If Glowpoint's board of directors does not declare any applicable dividend payment in cash, the Accrued Value of the Financing Preferred Stock will be increased by the amount of such dividend payment.
Upon Glowpoint’s liquidation, the holders of Financing Preferred Stock are entitled to receive in cash out of the assets of Glowpoint, after payment of the liquidation preference for any outstanding shares of senior preferred stock (including Glowpoint’s outstanding Series A-2 preferred stock, Series C preferred Stock and the Merger Preferred Stock), but before any amount is paid to the holders of any of shares of junior stock and pari passu with any parity stock then outstanding, an amount per share equal to the greater of (1) the then-existing Accrued Value of such shares and (2) the amount per share such holder would receive if its shares of Financing Preferred Stock had been converted into Common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment.
The foregoing description of the Financing Preferred Stock Certificate is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Financing Preferred Stock Certificate filed herewith as Exhibit 3.2, which is incorporated herein by reference.

AMENDMENT TO
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of October 1, 2019 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, and together with all annexes hereto, this “Amendment”), is entered into by and among Glowpoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), Oblong Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Glowpoint Merger Sub II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger Sub”). The Parent, Company and Merger Sub are each referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Agreement (as defined below).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, on September 12, 2019, the Parties entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, in order to reflect the agreement of the Parties, the Parties desire to amend the Agreement as set forth herein pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises, covenants, and agreements contained herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENTS
Section 1.Amendments to Agreement. Upon the execution and delivery of this Amendment, the Agreement will thereupon be deemed to be amended as set forth below, as fully and with the same force and effect as if the amendments made hereby were originally set forth in the Agreement:
(A)Section 1.7 of the Agreement. Section 1.7 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below:
“Board of Directors of the Parent. At the Effective Time, one (1) of the then-existing members of the Parent Board shall resign from the Parent Board, and John Underkoffler will be appointed by the Company (the “Company Board Designee”), effective as of the Closing, to hold office until his successor has been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Parent and applicable law.”
(B)Section 2.1(e)(ii) of the Agreement. Section 2.1(e)(ii) of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below:
“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, and for purposes of calculating the Preferred Exchange Ratio and Common Exchange Ratio, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock underlying shares of Parent Merger Preferred Stock to be issued as a result of the Parent Stock Issuance, together with (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable as a result of the assumption of Company Options pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) below, (ii) the number of restricted shares of Parent Common Stock underlying restricted shares of Parent Merger Preferred Stock issuable as a result of the cancellation of Company Options pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii) below, and (iii) 72,394 shares of Parent Common Stock, being the number of shares of Parent Common Stock underlying the Warrant to Purchase Common Stock to be executed by the Parent in favor of Silicon Valley Bank in connection with the Closing, shall, collectively, be equal to (and, in any case, no more than) three times (3x) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding on a fully-diluted basis immediately prior to the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, and regardless of the number of shares of Oblong capital stock and number of securities convertible into or exercisable for Oblong capital stock tendered and/or discovered following the Closing, in no event will Glowpoint be obligated issue securities in the Merger above the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence.”
(C)Section 2.2 of Agreement. Section 2.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on Annex A hereto.
(D)Section 2.5 of Agreement. Section 2.5 of the Agreement is hereby amended to add the language below as Section 2.5(c) of the Agreement:
“(c) The Parent, Company and Merger Sub hereby agree that the certified Merger Consideration Schedule deliverable under Section 2.5(a) above was not completed and delivered prior to Closing, and that the draft Merger Consideration Schedule delivered to the Parent prior to Closing will require modification by the Parent and Company post-Closing in order to properly allocate the Merger Consideration. As a result, the Parent, Company and Merger Sub hereby agree that the Parent will not be liable to Oblong or any holder of Oblong capital stock or Company Options as a result of its preparation of the final Merger Consideration Schedule, absent bad faith or willful misconduct.”
(E)Exhibit D to Agreement. Exhibit D to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on Annex B hereto.

Annex A
2.2 Treatment of Company Options and Warrants.
(a)Outstanding and unexercised options to purchase Company Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Company Stock Plans, whether or not then vested or exercisable (each a “Company Option”), shall be treated as follows in the Merger.
(i)At the Effective Time, each Company Option held by a former service provider to the Company (each, a “Former Employee Company Option”) shall be assumed by Parent without any action on the part of the holder thereof. Immediately after the Effective Time, each Former Employee Company Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Former Employee Company Option as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan (including any applicable award agreement, other agreement or other document evidencing such Company Option) immediately prior to the Effective Time, such number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number) that is equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the unexercised portion of such Former Employee Company Option multiplied by the Common Exchange Ratio. The per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Former Employee Company Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such Former Employee Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Common Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The assumption of the Former Employee Company Options is intended to comply with the regulations and other binding guidance under Section 409A of the Code, including Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D), and such Former Employee Company Options assumed pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) (the “Assumed Company Options”) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule, expiration date, exercise provisions, transfer restrictions and status as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code, if applicable) as were applicable to the corresponding Former Employee Company Options immediately prior to the Effective Time. It is the intention of the parties that each Former Employee Company Option so assumed by Parent shall qualify following the Effective Time as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code and to the extent such Former Employee Company Option qualified as an incentive stock option prior to the Effective Time and the provisions of this Section 2.2(a) shall be applied consistent with that intent. Within 30 Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent will issue to each person who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, was a holder of a Former Employee Company Option, a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such option by Parent.
(ii)At the Effective Time, each Company Option held by a current service provider to the Company (each, a “Current Employee Company Option”) shall be cancelled without any action on the part of the holder thereof. In consideration for the cancellation of all Current Employee Company Options held by a current service provider to the Company, the holder thereof shall receive the number of restricted shares of Parent Merger Preferred Stock as set forth opposite such service provider’s name on the Merger Consideration Schedule (“Parent Restricted Shares”); provided that such number of Parent Restricted Shares shall be subject to adjustment on a post-Closing basis to ensure the accuracy of the Merger Consideration Schedule. Such Parent Restricted Shares (or, as applicable, any restricted shares of Parent Common Stock received upon the conversion thereof) shall be subject to vesting over a two-year period following Closing, with twenty-five percent (25%) of the Parent Restricted Shares (the “Cliff Vesting Shares”) vesting on the first anniversary of the Effective Time (the “Cliff Vesting Date”) and the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) of the Parent Restricted Shares vesting in ratable monthly installments thereafter, subject to the holder’s continued employment with the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, through each such vesting date; provided, however, that in the event such holder’s employment is terminated prior to the Cliff Vesting Date by the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, without Cause (as defined below), such holder shall remain eligible to vest in the Cliff Vesting Shares on the Cliff Vesting Date. Within 30 Business days after the Effective Time, Parent will issue to each person who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, was a holder of a Current Employee Company Option, a document evidencing the issuance of such Parent Restricted Shares by Parent.
(iii)For purposes of the Cliff Vesting Shares, “Cause” shall be defined as (a) the holder’s unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets, which use or disclosure causes material harm to the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, (b) the holder’s material breach of any agreement between the holder and the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, (c) the holder’s material failure to comply with the written policies or rules of the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, (d) the holder’s conviction of, or plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any State, (e) the holder’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (f) the holder’s continuing failure to perform assigned duties after receiving written notification of the failure from the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable or (g) the holder’s failure to cooperate in good faith with a governmental or internal investigation of the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, or their directors, officers or employees, if the Surviving Company or Parent, as applicable, has requested the holder’s cooperation.
(b)Unless the Parent Restricted Shares or the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Assumed Company Options are otherwise covered by an existing registration statement on Form S-8 immediately upon the Effective Time, Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) or another appropriate form with respect to the Parent Restricted Shares and/or shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Assumed Company Options within a reasonable period of time after the Effective Time, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts at least equivalent to those used in maintaining the effectiveness of its existing registration statement(s) for its equity plans to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such Parent Restricted Shares and Assumed Company Options remain outstanding.
(c)Prior to the Effective Time, the Company and Parent agree that the Company shall, subject to Parent’s review and consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), take all corporate action necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.2. From and after the Effective Time, unless the compensation committee of the Parent Board determines otherwise, all references to the Company in the Company Stock Plans and in each award or other agreement evidencing or relating to any Assumed Company Option, Parent Restricted Shares or any other Company equity-based award, shall be deemed (i) for all purposes relating to employment, consultancy or directorship (or words of similar meaning) to refer to Parent and its Subsidiaries and (ii) for all other purposes, to refer to Parent.
(d)No warrants exercisable for shares of Company Capital Stock, whether vested or unvested, shall be assumed by Parent in the Merger. Each such warrant outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled, terminated and extinguished as of the Effective Time without the payment of any consideration to the holder of such warrant.

(“Oblong” and, such equity holders, the “Investors”) in connection with the proposed business combination of the Company and Oblong (the “Transaction”) is intended solely as a basis for further discussion, and this Term Sheet does not constitute a commitment to enter into a transaction on the terms described herein or otherwise.

|
Issuer:
|
Glowpoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
|
Security:
|
The Company’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”).

Dividends:
|
6.0% of the Accrued Value of the Series D Preferred Stock per annum, commencing on the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock. Prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock no dividends will accrue on such stock. Dividends are cumulative and accrue daily in arrears.
“Accrued Value” shall mean the original liquidation preference of $28.50 per share of Series D Preferred Stock plus an additional amount equal to the dollar value of any other accrued but unpaid dividends.
Cash dividends are payable when, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). If the Board does not declare a cash dividend in respect of all or a portion of a dividend when due, the Accrued Value of the Series D Preferred Stock will be increased by a corresponding amount. Dividends shall be due once per year, on the anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, commencing on the second anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock.
|
Liquidation Preference:
|
Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, each holder of Series D Preferred Stock will be entitled, subject to the rights of any senior or pari passu securities of the Company issued and outstanding, to receive a liquidating distribution in cash in the amount equal to the greater of (i) the then-current Accrued Value of such shares of Series D Preferred Stock plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends thereon and (ii) the value such holder would have been entitled to receive had its shares of Series D Preferred Stock been converted into the underlying shares of Common Stock immediately prior thereto.
|
Redemption:
|
The Series D Preferred Stock will not be redeemable.
|
|
|
|
Automatic Conversion:
|
Following satisfaction of the Conversion Condition (as defined below), all Series D Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), equal to the then-current Accrued Value of the Series D Preferred Stock (plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends) divided by the then-current Conversion Price.
“Conversion Condition” means the occurrence of both (i) approval of the conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock by the holders of more than 50.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis, present in person or by proxy, at a duly called and held meeting of the Company’s stockholders; and (ii) receipt of all required authorizations and approvals from the NYSE American (or any such other exchange upon which the Company’s securities are then listed for trading) for the listing of the Common Stock underlying the Series D Preferred Stock and the continued listing of the Company after closing of the Transaction and conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock.
“Conversion Price” means, with respect to each share of Series D Preferred Stock, as of any conversion date or other applicable date of determination, $2.85.
The Series D Preferred Stock will not have any optional right of conversion, except as follows: In the event that the Conversion Condition is not satisfied and the Preferred Stock has not converted to Common Stock by the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, then the holders thereof may demand, pursuant to a written instrument signed by the holders of not less than half of the then-outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, the conversion of a portion (not to exceed the Maximum Demand Conversion Portion) of all then-outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock on a pro rata basis among all holders of Series D Preferred Stock. Series D Preferred Stock that is not converted in this manner shall remain subject to mandatory conversion upon the occurrence of the Conversion Condition.
“Maximum Demand Conversion Portion” shall mean 93.0% of the lesser of (i) the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 1,022,851 shares of Common Stock (being equal to 19.9% of the Corporation’s outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Issue Date); and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock representing shares of Common Stock for which the NYSE American (or any such other exchange upon which the Corporation’s securities are then listed for trading) will approve for listing on such exchange without approval of the Corporation’s stockholders for the issuance thereof.
If the Certificate of Designations for the Series E Preferred Stock of the Company includes a similar right of optional conversion, the parties understand and agree that the Maximum Demand Conversion Portion applicable to the Series D and Series E Preferred Stock will be adjusted so as to not violate, on an aggregate basis, the stockholder approval limitations of the NYSE American.
|
Anti-dilution Provisions:
|
The conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock will be subject to proportional anti-dilution adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, combination or similar recapitalization or change with respect to the Common Stock.
|
Voting Rights:
|
Other than the Protective Provisions (as defined below), the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock will have no voting rights.

|
|
(1) liquidate, dissolve or wind-up the business and affairs of the Company, or consent to any of the foregoing;

(5) take or approve any of the foregoing actions with respect to a subsidiary of the Company; or
|
|
(6) authorize, create or issue any debt security, or permit any subsidiary to take any such action with respect to any debt security, if the aggregate indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries for borrowed money following such action, in excess of the amount outstanding or available for borrowing under the Silicon Valley Bank loan to be assumed by the Company in the Transaction, would exceed $500,000.

Lock-Up:
|
Subject to the agreement by each of the Company’s directors to reciprocal restrictions on transfers of their shares, the Investors will agree not to sell or transfer any shares of Series D Preferred Stock, the underlying shares of Common Stock received by Investors following any conversion, or, in each case, any other shares issued by stock dividend, stock distribution, stock split or otherwise with respect to such preferred or common stock, for a period of up to six (6) months following the original issuance date of the Series D Preferred Stock, excluding any transfers to an “affiliate” for no consideration, including without limitation, any general partner, officer, director or manager of an Investor and any venture capital or private equity fund now or hereafter existing that is controlled by one or more general partners or managing members of, or is under common investment management with, such Investor.

The Company will agree to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a resale shelf registration statement registering for resale the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series D Preferred Stock of Foundry Group Select Fund, L.P., including shares issued by stock dividend, stock distribution, stock split or otherwise, as soon as reasonably practicable following satisfaction of the Conversion Condition. The Company will also agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale shelf registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC and to have the shares of Common Stock underlying all shares of Series D Preferred Stock listed on the NYSE American (or any such other exchange upon which the Company’s securities are then listed for trading).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Board of Directors does not declare a dividend payment in cash in respect of all or any portion of a dividend accrued on a Dividend Accrual Date, the Accrued Value of each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be increased by an amount equal to the dollar amount of all or such portion, as the case may be, of such dividend that would otherwise have been paid in cash on such Dividend Accrual Date had the Board of Directors declared a full cash dividend on such Dividend Accrual Date.
Any increase in the Accrued Value of the Series D Preferred Stock shall take effect on the Dividend Accrual Date on which the Corporation does not pay in cash all or any portion of the dividend accrued during the preceding Dividend Period. It is understood that where this Certificate of Designations refers to an amount including “dividends accrued and unpaid” (or language of similar import) on a share of Series D Preferred Stock as of a date, such reference shall be understood to mean the amount of dividends that would accrue if such dividends were declared by the Board of Directors on such date, calculated based on the portion of the then current Dividend Period actually elapsed as of such date.

If a cash dividend is declared by the Board of Directors for a Dividend Accrual Date, such cash dividend will be payable to Holders of record as they appear in the stock register of the Corporation at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the month, whether or not a Business Day, prior to the month in which the relevant Dividend Accrual Date occurs (each, a “Record Date”). Each period from and including a Dividend Accrual Date (or (i) the first anniversary of the Issue Date or (ii) in the case of shares of Series D Preferred Stock issued subsequent to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, the date of issuance of such shares) to but excluding the following Dividend Accrual Date is herein referred to as a “Dividend Period.”
(c)Dividends payable or accrued for a Dividend Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If a Dividend Accrual Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, and if a cash dividend is declared by the Board of Directors for such Dividend Accrual Date, the dividend will be paid on the next Business Day as if it were paid on the Dividend Accrual Date, and no interest or other amount will accrue on the dividend so payable for the period from and after such Dividend Accrual Date to the date the dividend is paid. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be paid on any dividend payment on shares of Series D Preferred Stock paid later than the scheduled Dividend Accrual Date.
(d)Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock are cumulative. Dividends on each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall accrue daily from and after the Issue Date, whether or not earned or declared, and whether or not there are earnings or profits, surplus or other funds or assets of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends.
(e)Upon a conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Accrued Value shall be increased by any accrued and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the applicable Conversion Date and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be increased in order to give effect to the related increase in the Accrued Value.
Section 5.Liquidation.
(a)In the event the Corporation voluntarily or involuntarily liquidates, dissolves or winds up (a “Liquidation Event”), the Holders at the time, subject to the rights of any Senior Securities and Parity Securities, shall be entitled to receive a liquidating distribution in the amount of the greater of (i) the Accrued Value per share of Series D Preferred Stock (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends not included in the Accrued Value to, but excluding, the date of liquidation) at the time of such Liquidation Event and (ii) the value such Holder would have been entitled to receive upon such Liquidation Event if the Holder would have converted its shares of Series D Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Liquidation Event, in each case out of assets legally available for distribution to the Corporation’s stockholders, before any distribution of assets is made to the holders of the Common Stock or any other Junior Securities. After payment of the full amount of such liquidating distributions, the Holders will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of assets by, and shall have no right or claim to any remaining assets of, the Corporation. The Corporation shall give the Holders written notice of any Liquidation Event not later than 15 days prior to the expected date of such Liquidation Event (or, if such Liquidation Event is involuntary and such prior written notice is not practicable, as early as practicable prior to the occurrence of such Liquidation Event), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature and expected timing of the Liquidation Event and
the expected amount of assets of the Corporation available for distribution to holders of Common Stock and Preferred Stock.
(b)In the event the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts payable with respect to all outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on any Parity Securities, Holders and the holders of such Parity Securities shall share ratably in any distribution of assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full respective liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.
(c)The Corporation’s consolidation or merger with or into any other entity, the consolidation or merger of any other entity with or into the Corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all the Corporation’s property or business will not constitute its liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Section 6.Maturity. The Series D Preferred Stock shall be perpetual unless converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations.
Section 7.Right to Convert.
(a)If the Conversion Condition does not occur on or prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, then, following the first anniversary of the Issue Date, the Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock may demand, pursuant to a written instrument signed by the holders of not less than half of the then-outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, the conversion of a portion (not to exceed the Series D Maximum Demand Conversion Portion) of all then-outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock on a pro rata basis among all holders of Series D Preferred Stock. Series D Preferred Stock that is not converted in this manner shall remain subject to mandatory conversion under Section 8 upon the occurrence of the Conversion Condition.
Section 8.Mandatory Conversion.
(a)Upon the occurrence of the Conversion Condition, each outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock shall automatically, without any action by the Corporation or any holder of Series D Preferred Stock, convert into shares of Common Stock at a conversion rate per share of Series D Preferred Stock equal to the then current Accrued Value of such share (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends not included in the Accrued Value to but excluding the Conversion Date) divided by the Conversion Price as of the effective date of the Conversion Condition.
Section 9.Conversion Procedures; Reservation of Shares of Common Stock.
(a)Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date, dividends shall no longer accrue or accumulate on any shares of Series D Preferred Stock converted on such date and such shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, subject to the right of Holders to receive the shares of Common Stock due upon conversion.
(b)Except as provided in Section 10 hereto, no allowance or adjustment shall be made in respect of dividends payable to holders of the Common Stock of record as of any date prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date. Prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and, except as otherwise set forth in this Certificate, Holders shall have no rights with respect to the Common Stock issuable upon conversion (including voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on the Common Stock issuable upon conversion) by virtue of holding shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
(c)Shares of Series D Preferred Stock duly converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations will resume the status of authorized and unissued serial preferred stock, undesignated as to series and available for
future issuance. The Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock, but not below the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding.
(d)The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series D Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock as of the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock to be issued or paid upon conversion of shares of Series D Preferred Stock should be registered or paid or the manner in which such shares should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation.
(e)The conversion of shares of Series D Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock will occur on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date as follows:
(i)On the Mandatory Conversion Date, shares of Common Stock shall be issued to a Holder or its designee upon presentation and surrender of the certificate evidencing the Series D Preferred Stock to the Corporation if shares of the Series D Preferred Stock are held in certificated form, and, if required, the furnishing of appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the payment of all transfer and similar taxes. If a Holder’s interest is a beneficial interest in a global certificate representing Series D Preferred Stock, a book-entry transfer through the Depositary will be made by or at the direction of the Corporation upon compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a global security.
(ii)On the date of any conversion at the option of a Holder, if a Holder’s interest is in certificated form, in order to convert Series D Preferred Stock, a Holder must:
(A)surrender the shares of Series D Preferred Stock to the Corporation;
(B)if required by the Corporation, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and
(C)if required by the Corporation, pay all transfer or similar taxes.
If a Holder’s interest is a beneficial interest in a global certificate representing Series D Preferred Stock, in order to convert, such Holder must comply with paragraphs (B) and (C) of this clause (ii) and comply with the Depositary’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a global security. The date on which a Holder complies with the procedures in this clause (ii) is the “Conversion Date.” The Corporation shall deliver the shares of Common Stock due upon conversion at the option of the Holder to such converting Holder by the second Business Day following the Conversion Date.
(f)The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized by unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares or fractions of shares of Series D Preferred Stock. All shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.
Section 10.Anti-Dilution Adjustments.
(a)Without limiting any provision of Section 11, if the Corporation at any time on or after the Issue Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision of Section 11, if the Corporation at any time on or after the Issue Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 10 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 10 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
(b)All adjustments to the Conversion Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock. No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent thereof; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided further that on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any Conversion Date relating to a conversion at the option of the Holder, adjustments to the Conversion Rate will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such date.
(c)No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if Holders may participate in the transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment, as a result of holding the Series D Preferred Stock, without having to convert the Series D Preferred Stock, as if they held the full number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of the Series D Preferred Stock may then be converted.
(d)The applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted:
(i)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Corporation’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries;
(iii)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date;
(iv)for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(v)for accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock or for any increase in the Accrued Value.
(e)Whenever the Conversion Price is to be adjusted in accordance with Section 10, the Corporation shall as soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the holders of Series D Preferred Stock setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the revised Conversion Price.
Section 11.Reorganization Events.
(a)In the event of:
(i)any reclassification of the Common Stock into securities including securities other than the Common Stock; or
(ii)any statutory exchange of the Corporation’s securities;
(each of the foregoing events, a “Reorganization Event”) pursuant to which the Common Stock is exchanged for securities, cash or other property (“Reference Property” and the kind and amount of Reference Property received by
a holder of one share of Common Stock, a “unit of Reference Property” ), the Series D Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will thereafter, and without the consent of Holders, become convertible into Reference Property, and each share of Series D Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of units of Reference Property equal to the Conversion Rate then applicable at the time of any such conversion. If holders of Common Stock are permitted to elect to receive more than one form of Reference Property in connection with a Reorganization Event, the Series D Preferred Stock shall become convertible into the Reference Property elected by a plurality of the holders of Common Stock.
(b)The above provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Corporation received by the holders of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event.
(c)The Corporation shall, not later than three (3) Business Days following the date on which a definitive agreement is executed by the Corporation that would give rise to a Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such anticipated Reorganization Event. Not later than three (3) Business Days following the date such Reorganization Event occurs, the Corporation shall provide written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such Reorganization Event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property or assets that constitutes the Reference Property and a unit of Reference Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 11. To the extent any amendments are necessary to this Certificate of Designations to effectuate the intent of this Section 11, the Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable, make such amendments.
Section 12.Voting Rights; Additional Series D Preferred Stock Provisions.
(a)Except as set forth in Section 12(b) or as required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Series D Preferred Stock will not be entitled to vote on any matter.
(b)For so long as at least twenty percent (20%) of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation are outstanding, the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, will be necessary for effecting or validating the following actions (whether consummated by merger, amendment, recapitalization, consolidation or otherwise):
(i)the liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the business and affairs of the Corporation, or the Corporation’s consent to any of the foregoing;
(ii)the amendment, altering or repeal of any provision of the Corporation’s Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended & Restated Bylaws or this Certificate in any manner that adversely affects the powers, preferences or rights of the Series D Preferred Stock;
(iii)creating, or authorizing the creation of, or issuance or obligation of the Corporation to issue shares of, any additional class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock, other than Common Stock;
(iv)(a) the reclassification, altering or amendment of any existing security of the Corporation that is pari passu with the Series D Preferred Stock in respect of the distribution of assets on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the payment of dividends or rights of redemption, if such reclassification, alteration or amendment would render such other security senior to the Series D Preferred Stock in respect of any such right, preference, or privilege, or (ii) the reclassification, altering or amendment of any existing security of the Corporation that is junior to the Series D Preferred Stock in respect of the distribution of assets on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the payment of dividends or rights of redemption, if such reclassification, alteration or amendment would render such other security senior to or pari passu with the Series D Preferred Stock in respect of any such right, preference or privilege;
(v)taking or approving any of the foregoing actions with respect to a subsidiary of the Corporation; or
(vi) authorizing, creating or issuing any debt security, or permitting any subsidiary to take any such action with respect to any debt security, if the aggregate indebtedness of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for borrowed money following such action, in excess of the amount outstanding or available for borrowing under the Corporation’s loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, would exceed $500,000.
(c)On each matter on which holders of Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, each share of Series D Preferred Stock will be entitled to one vote.
Section 13.Fractional Shares.
(a)No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued as a result of any conversion of shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
(b)In lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Holder shall be entitled to receive one full share of Common Stock.
(c)If more than one share of the Series D Preferred Stock is surrendered for conversion at one time (or within 30 days of a conversion) by or for the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock so surrendered.
Section 14.Transfer Agent, Registrar, Paying Agent and Conversion Agent. The duly appointed Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series D Preferred Stock shall be a Person appointed by the Corporation, which may include the Corporation. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC will initially act as the Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series D Preferred Stock. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, appoint any other Person as Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series D Preferred Stock.
Section 15.Tax Withholding. The Corporation may withhold tax from any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution for federal income tax purposes) made hereunder as required by law. In the case of distributions that are deemed to occur for federal income tax purposes where no cash or property is being distributed or paid to the Holder, the Corporation may, at its election, either withhold the tax from any other cash or property otherwise payable to the applicable Holder (including from any future distributions or from any Common Stock receivable by such Holder upon the conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock), or require the Holder to indemnify the Corporation for any such withholding tax, in which case the Holder shall pay the Corporation the amount of such tax within five Business Days of being requested to do so. Any amount of tax (or property) withheld by the Corporation under the terms of this Section 15 shall be promptly paid to the applicable tax authorities and shall be treated as having being paid to the applicable Holder in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designations.
Section 16.Lock-Up. To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, during the period extending six (6) months following the Issue Date, no holder of Series D Preferred Stock or any underlying shares of Common Stock received by a holder of Series D Preferred Stock following any conversion of such Series D Preferred Stock, or, in each case, any other shares of the Corporation’s capital stock issued by stock dividend, stock distribution, stock split or otherwise (collectively, “Restricted Stock”), may effect any sale, distribution, pledge or other disposition (including sales pursuant to Rule 144) of any such Restricted Stock, or offer to sell, pledge or dispose, contract to sell, pledge or dispose (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of any such Restricted Stock, in each case, without prior written consent from the Board of Directors. For avoidance of doubt, the transfer restrictions imposed by this Section 16 shall not prohibit a conversion of Series D Preferred Stock effected in accordance with the terms of this Certificate.
Section 17.Miscellaneous. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing, and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail (unless first-class mail shall be specifically permitted for such notice under the terms of this Certificate of Designations) with postage prepaid, addressed: (i) if to the Corporation, to the principal executive office of the Corporation or to the Transfer Agent at its principal office in the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Board of Directors does not declare a dividend payment in cash in respect of all or any portion of a dividend accrued on a Dividend Accrual Date, the Accrued Value of each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be increased by an amount equal to the dollar amount of all or such portion, as the case may be, of such dividend that would otherwise have been paid in cash on such Dividend Accrual Date had the Board of Directors declared a full cash dividend on such Dividend Accrual Date.
Any increase in the Accrued Value of the Series E Preferred Stock shall take effect on the Dividend Accrual Date on which the Corporation does not pay in cash all or any portion of the dividend accrued during the preceding Dividend Period. It is understood that where this Certificate of Designations refers to an amount including “dividends accrued and unpaid” (or language of similar import) on a share of Series E Preferred Stock as of a date, such reference shall be understood to mean the amount of dividends that would accrue if such dividends were declared by the Board
of Directors on such date, calculated based on the portion of the then current Dividend Period actually elapsed as of such date.
(b)Subject to Section 4(a), dividends shall accrue and, if declared in cash, be payable annually in arrears on October 1 of each year following the first anniversary of the Issue Date (each, a “Dividend Accrual Date”) commencing on October 1, 2021. If a cash dividend is declared by the Board of Directors for a Dividend Accrual Date, such cash dividend will be payable to Holders of record as they appear in the stock register of the Corporation at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the month, whether or not a Business Day, prior to the month in which the relevant Dividend Accrual Date occurs (each, a “Record Date”). Each period from and including a Dividend Accrual Date (or (i) the first anniversary of the Issue Date or (ii) in the case of shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued subsequent to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, the date of issuance of such shares) to but excluding the following Dividend Accrual Date is herein referred to as a “Dividend Period.”
(c)Dividends payable or accrued for a Dividend Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If a Dividend Accrual Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, and if a cash dividend is declared by the Board of Directors for such Dividend Accrual Date, the dividend will be paid on the next Business Day as if it were paid on the Dividend Accrual Date, and no interest or other amount will accrue on the dividend so payable for the period from and after such Dividend Accrual Date to the date the dividend is paid. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest will be paid on any dividend payment on shares of Series E Preferred Stock paid later than the scheduled Dividend Accrual Date.
(d)Dividends on the Series E Preferred Stock are cumulative. Dividends on each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall accrue daily from and after the Issue Date, whether or not earned or declared, and whether or not there are earnings or profits, surplus or other funds or assets of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends.
(e)Upon a conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Accrued Value shall be increased by any accrued and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the applicable Conversion Date and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be increased in order to give effect to the related increase in the Accrued Value.
Section 5.Liquidation.
(a)In the event the Corporation voluntarily or involuntarily liquidates, dissolves or winds up (a “Liquidation Event”), the Holders at the time, subject to the rights of any Senior Securities and Parity Securities, shall be entitled to receive a liquidating distribution in the amount of the greater of (i) the Accrued Value per share of Series E Preferred Stock (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends not included in the Accrued Value to, but excluding, the date of liquidation) at the time of such Liquidation Event and (ii) the value such Holder would have been entitled to receive upon such Liquidation Event if the Holder would have converted its shares of Series E Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Liquidation Event, in each case out of assets legally available for distribution to the Corporation’s stockholders, before any distribution of assets is made to the holders of the Common Stock or any other Junior Securities. After payment of the full amount of such liquidating distributions, the Holders will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of assets by, and shall have no right or claim to any remaining assets of, the Corporation. The Corporation shall give the Holders written notice of any Liquidation Event not later than 15 days prior to the expected date of such Liquidation Event (or, if such Liquidation Event is involuntary and such prior written notice is not practicable, as early as practicable prior to the occurrence of such Liquidation Event), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature and expected timing of the Liquidation Event and the expected amount of assets of the Corporation available for distribution to holders of Common Stock and Preferred Stock.
(b)In the event the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts payable with respect to all outstanding shares of the Series E Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on any Parity Securities, Holders and the holders of such Parity Securities shall share ratably in any distribution of assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full respective liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.
(c)The Corporation’s consolidation or merger with or into any other entity, the consolidation or merger of any other entity with or into the Corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all the Corporation’s property or business will not constitute its liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Section 6.Maturity. The Series E Preferred Stock shall be perpetual unless converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations.
Section 7.Right to Convert.
(a)If the Conversion Condition does not occur on or prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, then, following the first anniversary of the Issue Date, the Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock may demand, pursuant to a written instrument signed by the holders of not less than half of the then-outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock, the conversion of a portion (not to exceed the Series E Maximum Demand Conversion Portion) of all then-outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock into Common Stock on a pro rata basis among all holders of Series E Preferred Stock. Series E Preferred Stock that is not converted in this manner shall remain subject to mandatory conversion under Section 8 upon the occurrence of the Conversion Condition.
Section 8.Mandatory Conversion.
(a)Upon the occurrence of the Conversion Condition, each outstanding share of Series E Preferred Stock shall automatically, without any action by the Corporation or any holder of Series E Preferred Stock, convert into shares of Common Stock at a conversion rate per share of Series E Preferred Stock equal to the then current Accrued Value of such share (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends not included in the Accrued Value to but excluding the Conversion Date) divided by the Conversion Price as of the effective date of the Conversion Condition.
Section 9.Conversion Procedures; Reservation of Shares of Common Stock.
(a)Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date, dividends shall no longer accrue or accumulate on any shares of Series E Preferred Stock converted on such date and such shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, subject to the right of Holders to receive the shares of Common Stock due upon conversion.
(b)Except as provided in Section 10 hereto, no allowance or adjustment shall be made in respect of dividends payable to holders of the Common Stock of record as of any date prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date. Prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and, except as otherwise set forth in this Certificate, Holders shall have no rights with respect to the Common Stock issuable upon conversion (including voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on the Common Stock issuable upon conversion) by virtue of holding shares of Series E Preferred Stock.
(c)Shares of Series E Preferred Stock duly converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations will resume the status of authorized and unissued serial preferred stock, undesignated as to series and available for future issuance. The Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock, but not below the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding.
(d)The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock as of the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock to be issued or paid upon conversion of shares of Series E Preferred Stock should be registered or paid or the manner in which such shares should be delivered,
the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation.
(e)The conversion of shares of Series E Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock will occur on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any applicable Conversion Date as follows:
(i)On the Mandatory Conversion Date, shares of Common Stock shall be issued to a Holder or its designee upon presentation and surrender of the certificate evidencing the Series E Preferred Stock to the Corporation if shares of the Series E Preferred Stock are held in certificated form, and, if required, the furnishing of appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the payment of all transfer and similar taxes. If a Holder’s interest is a beneficial interest in a global certificate representing Series E Preferred Stock, a book-entry transfer through the Depositary will be made by or at the direction of the Corporation upon compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a global security.
(ii)On the date of any conversion at the option of a Holder, if a Holder’s interest is in certificated form, in order to convert Series E Preferred Stock, a Holder must:
(A)surrender the shares of Series E Preferred Stock to the Corporation;
(B)if required by the Corporation, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and
(C)if required by the Corporation, pay all transfer or similar taxes.
If a Holder’s interest is a beneficial interest in a global certificate representing Series E Preferred Stock, in order to convert, such Holder must comply with paragraphs (B) and (C) of this clause (ii) and comply with the Depositary’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a global security. The date on which a Holder complies with the procedures in this clause (ii) is the “Conversion Date.” The Corporation shall deliver the shares of Common Stock due upon conversion at the option of the Holder to such converting Holder by the second Business Day following the Conversion Date.
(f)The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized by unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares or fractions of shares of Series E Preferred Stock. All shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.
Section 10.Anti-Dilution Adjustments.
(a)Without limiting any provision of Section 11, if the Corporation at any time on or after the Issue Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision of Section 11, if the Corporation at any time on or after the Issue Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 10 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 10 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
(b)Subject to the last sentence of this Section 10(b), in the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Issue Date issue additional shares of Common Stock without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
CP2 = CP1 * ((A+B) / (A+C))
CP2 = Conversion Price in effect immediately after new issue.
CP1 = Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to new issue.
A = Number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding immediately prior to new issue (including all shares of outstanding Common Stock, all shares of outstanding preferred stock on an as-converted basis, and all outstanding options on an as-exercised basis; but not including any convertible securities converting into the securities issued in the new issue).
B = Aggregate consideration received by the Corporation with respect to the new issue divided by CP1.
C = Number of shares of stock issued in the new issue.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following issuances shall not trigger anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to this Section 10(b): (i) securities issuable upon conversion of any of the Series E Preferred Stock, or as a dividend or distribution on the Series E Preferred Stock; (ii) securities issued upon the conversion of any debenture, warrant, option, or other convertible security; (iii) Common Stock issuable upon a stock split, stock dividend, or any subdivision of shares of Common Stock; and (iv) shares of Common Stock (or options to purchase such shares of Common Stock) issued or issuable to employees or directors of, or consultants to, the Corporation pursuant to any plan approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors
(c)All adjustments to the Conversion Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock. No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent thereof; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided further that on the Mandatory Conversion Date or any Conversion Date relating to a conversion at the option of the Holder, adjustments to the Conversion Rate will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such date.
(d)No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if Holders may participate in the transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment, as a result of holding the Series E Preferred Stock, without having to convert the Series E Preferred Stock, as if they held the full number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of the Series E Preferred Stock may then be converted.
(e)The applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted:
(i)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Corporation’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries;
(iii)upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date;
(iv)for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(v)for accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series E Preferred Stock or for any increase in the Accrued Value.
(f)Whenever the Conversion Price is to be adjusted in accordance with Section 10, the Corporation shall as soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the holders of Series E Preferred Stock setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the revised Conversion Price.
Section 11.Reorganization Events.
(a)In the event of:
(i)any reclassification of the Common Stock into securities including securities other than the Common Stock; or
(ii)any statutory exchange of the Corporation’s securities;
(each of the foregoing events, a “Reorganization Event”) pursuant to which the Common Stock is exchanged for securities, cash or other property (“Reference Property” and the kind and amount of Reference Property received by a holder of one share of Common Stock, a “unit of Reference Property” ), the Series E Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will thereafter, and without the consent of Holders, become convertible into Reference Property, and each share of Series E Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of units of Reference Property equal to the Conversion Rate then applicable at the time of any such conversion. If holders of Common Stock are permitted to elect to receive more than one form of Reference Property in connection with a Reorganization Event, the Series E Preferred Stock shall become convertible into the Reference Property elected by a plurality of the holders of Common Stock.
(b)The above provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Corporation received by the holders of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event.
(c)The Corporation shall, not later than three (3) Business Days following the date on which a definitive agreement is executed by the Corporation that would give rise to a Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such anticipated Reorganization Event. Not later than three (3) Business Days following the date such Reorganization Event occurs, the Corporation shall provide written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such Reorganization Event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property or assets that constitutes the Reference Property and a unit of Reference Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 11. To the extent any amendments are necessary to this Certificate of Designations to effectuate the intent of this Section 11, the Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable, make such amendments.
Section 12.Voting Rights; Additional Series E Preferred Stock Provisions.
(a)Except as set forth in Section 12(b) or as required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Series E Preferred Stock will not be entitled to vote on any matter.
(b)For so long as at least twenty percent (20%) of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation are outstanding, the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, will be necessary for effecting or validating the following actions (whether consummated by merger, amendment, recapitalization, consolidation or otherwise):
(i)the liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the business and affairs of the Corporation, or the Corporation’s consent to any of the foregoing;
(ii)the amendment, altering or repeal of any provision of the Corporation’s Amended & Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended & Restated Bylaws or this Certificate in any manner that adversely affects the powers, preferences or rights of the Series E Preferred Stock;
(iii)creating, or authorizing the creation of, or issuance or obligation of the Corporation to issue shares of, any additional class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock, other than Common Stock;
(iv)(a) the reclassification, altering or amendment of any existing security of the Corporation that is pari passu with the Series E Preferred Stock in respect of the distribution of assets on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the payment of dividends or rights of redemption, if such reclassification, alteration or amendment would render such other security senior to the Series E Preferred Stock in respect of any such right, preference, or privilege, or (ii) the reclassification, altering or amendment of any existing security of the Corporation that is junior to the Series E Preferred Stock in respect of the distribution of assets on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the payment of dividends or rights of redemption, if such reclassification, alteration or amendment would render such other security senior to or pari passu with the Series E Preferred Stock in respect of any such right, preference or privilege;
(v)taking or approving any of the foregoing actions with respect to a subsidiary of the Corporation; or
(vi) authorizing, creating or issuing any debt security, or permitting any subsidiary to take any such action with respect to any debt security, if the aggregate indebtedness of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for borrowed money following such action, in excess of the amount outstanding or available for borrowing under the Corporation’s loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, would exceed $500,000.
(c)On each matter on which holders of Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, each share of Series E Preferred Stock will be entitled to one vote.
Section 13.Fractional Shares.
(a)No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued as a result of any conversion of shares of Series E Preferred Stock.
(b)In lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Holder shall be entitled to receive one full share of Common Stock.
(c)If more than one share of the Series E Preferred Stock is surrendered for conversion at one time (or within 30 days of a conversion) by or for the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Series E Preferred Stock so surrendered.
Section 14.Transfer Agent, Registrar, Paying Agent and Conversion Agent. The duly appointed Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series E Preferred Stock shall be a Person appointed by the Corporation, which may include the Corporation. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC will initially act as the Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series E Preferred Stock. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, appoint any other Person as Transfer Agent, Registrar, paying agent and Conversion Agent for the Series E Preferred Stock.
Section 15.Tax Withholding. The Corporation may withhold tax from any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution for federal income tax purposes) made hereunder as required by law. In the case of distributions that are deemed to occur for federal income tax purposes where no cash or property is being distributed or paid to the Holder, the Corporation may, at its election, either withhold the tax from any other cash or property otherwise payable to the applicable Holder (including from any future distributions or from any Common Stock receivable by such Holder
upon the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock), or require the Holder to indemnify the Corporation for any such withholding tax, in which case the Holder shall pay the Corporation the amount of such tax within five Business Days of being requested to do so. Any amount of tax (or property) withheld by the Corporation under the terms of this Section 15 shall be promptly paid to the applicable tax authorities and shall be treated as having being paid to the applicable Holder in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designations.
Section 16.Lock-Up. To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, during the period extending six (6) months following the Issue Date, no holder of Series E Preferred Stock or any underlying shares of Common Stock received by a holder of Series E Preferred Stock following any conversion of such Series E Preferred Stock, or, in each case, any other shares of the Corporation’s capital stock issued by stock dividend, stock distribution, stock split or otherwise (collectively, “Restricted Stock”), may effect any sale, distribution, pledge or other disposition (including sales pursuant to Rule 144) of any such Restricted Stock, or offer to sell, pledge or dispose, contract to sell, pledge or dispose (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of any such Restricted Stock, in each case, without prior written consent from the Board of Directors. For avoidance of doubt, the transfer restrictions imposed by this Section 16 shall not prohibit a conversion of Series E Preferred Stock effected in accordance with the terms of this Certificate.
Section 17.Miscellaneous. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing, and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail (unless first-class mail shall be specifically permitted for such notice under the terms of this Certificate of Designations) with postage prepaid, addressed: (i) if to the Corporation, to the principal executive office of the Corporation or to the Transfer Agent at its principal office in the United States of America, or other agent of the Corporation designated as permitted by this Certificate of Designations, or (ii) if to any Holder or holder of shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, to such Holder at the address of such Holder as listed in the stock record books of the Corporation (which may include the records of any transfer agent for the Series E Preferred Stock or the Common Stock, as the case may be), or (iii) to such other address as the Corporation or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.

This Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”) is issued in connection with that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among Silicon Valley Bank, Oblong Industries, Inc. and the Company (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”).
|
THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, SILICON VALLEY BANK (together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant or of any shares issued upon exercise hereof, “Holder”) is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Shares”) of the above-stated common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the above-named company (the “Company”) at the above-stated Warrant Price, all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. Reference is made to Section 5.4 of this Warrant whereby Silicon Valley Bank shall transfer this Warrant to its parent company, SVB Financial Group.
SECTION 1. EXERCISE.
1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may at any time and from time to time exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix 1 and, unless Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a cashless exercise set forth in Section 1.2, a check, wire transfer of same-day funds (to an account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased. In no event shall an original ink-signed paper copy of this Warrant be required for any exercise of a Holder’s rights hereunder, nor shall this Warrant or any physical copy thereof be required to be physically surrendered at the time of any exercise hereof.
1.2 Cashless Exercise. On any exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of payment of the aggregate Warrant Price in the manner as specified in Section 1.1 above, but otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.1, Holder may elect to receive Shares equal to the value of this Warrant, or portion hereof as to which this Warrant is being exercised. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares as are computed using the following formula:
X = Y(A-B)/A
where:
|
|
X =
|
the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder;
|
|
|
Y =
|
the number of Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised (inclusive of the Shares surrendered to the Company in payment of the aggregate Warrant Price);
|
|
|
A =
|
the Fair Market Value (as determined pursuant to Section 1.3 below) of one Share; and
|
1.3 Fair Market Value. If the Company’s Common Stock is then traded or quoted on a nationally recognized securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter market (a “Trading Market”), the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price or last sale price of a share of Common Stock reported for the Business Day immediately before the date on which Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company. If the Company’s Common Stock is not traded in a Trading Market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the fair market value of a Share in its reasonable good faith judgment.
1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Within a reasonable time after Holder exercises this Warrant in the manner set forth in Section 1.1 or 1.2 above, the Company shall deliver to Holder a certificate representing the Shares issued to Holder upon such exercise and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Shares not so acquired.
1.5 Replacement of Warrant.
(a) Paper Original Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form, substance and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender of this Warrant to the Company for cancellation, the Company shall, within a reasonable time, execute and deliver to Holder, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.
(b) Electronic Original Warrant. If at any time this Warrant is rejected by any person (including but not limited to, paying or escrow agents) or any such person fails to comply with the terms of this Warrant based on this Warrant being presented to such person as an electronic record, a printout thereof, or any signature hereto being in electronic form, the Company, shall, promptly upon Holder’s request without indemnity, execute and deliver to Holder, in lieu of electronic original versions of this warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount in paper form with original signatures.
1.6 Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company.
(a) Acquisition. For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any transaction or series of related transactions involving: (i) the sale, lease, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another person or entity (other than a merger or consolidation effected exclusively to change the Company’s domicile), or any other corporate reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company in their capacity as such immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, own less than a majority of the Company’s (or the surviving or successor entity’s) outstanding voting power immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization; or (iii) any sale or other transfer by the stockholders of the Company of shares representing at least a majority of the Company’s then-total outstanding combined voting power.
(b) Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition. In the event of an Acquisition in which the consideration to be received by the Company’s stockholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a “Cash/Public Acquisition”), and the fair market value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date immediately prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, and Holder has not exercised this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.1 above as to all Shares, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be Cashless Exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of a Cash/Public Acquisition. In connection with such Cashless Exercise, Holder shall be deemed to have restated each of the representations and warranties in Section 4 of the Warrant as of the date thereof and the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares (or such other securities) issued upon exercise. In the event of a Cash/Public Acquisition where the
fair market value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, then this Warrant will expire immediately prior to the consummation of such Cash/Public Acquisition.
(c) Upon the closing of any Acquisition other than a Cash/Public Acquisition defined above, the acquiring, surviving or successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the same securities and/or other property as would have been paid for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on and as of the closing of such Acquisition, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
(d) As used in this Warrant, “Marketable Securities” means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (i) the issuer thereof is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other information under the Act and the Exchange Act; (ii) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received by Holder in connection with the Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the closing thereof is then traded in a Trading Market, and (iii) following the closing of such Acquisition, Holder would not be restricted from publicly re-selling all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by Holder in such Acquisition were Holder to exercise or convert this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Acquisition, except to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, and (y) does not extend beyond six (6) months from the closing of such Acquisition.
SECTION 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES AND WARRANT PRICE.
2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the outstanding shares of the Common Stock payable in securities or property (other than cash), then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without additional cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities and property which Holder would have received had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or distribution occurred. If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the Common Stock by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of the Common Stock are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.
2.2 Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution. Upon any event whereby all of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock are reclassified, exchanged, combined, substituted, or replaced for, into, with or by Company securities of a different class and/or series, then from and after the consummation of such event, this Warrant will be exercisable for the number, class and series of Company securities that Holder would have received had the Shares been outstanding on and as of the consummation of such event, and subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations, substitutions, replacements or other similar events.
2.3 Intentionally Omitted.
2.4 Intentionally Omitted.
2.5 No Fractional Share. No fractional Share shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional Share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional Share interest by paying Holder in cash the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by (i) the fair market value (as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above) of a full Share, less (ii) the then-effective Warrant Price.
2.6 Notice/Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, Common Stock and/or number of Shares, the Company, at the Company’s expense, shall notify Holder in writing within a reasonable time setting forth the adjustments to the Warrant Price, class and/or number of Shares and facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request from Holder, furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer, including computations of such adjustment and the Warrant Price, class and number of Shares in effect upon the date of such adjustment..
SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
3.1 Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Holder as follows:
(a) Reserved.
(b) All Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free of any liens and encumbrances except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable federal and state securities laws. The Company covenants that it shall at all times cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued capital stock such number of securities as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant.
(c) The Company’s summary capitalization table attached hereto as Schedule 1 is true and complete, in all material respects, as of the Issue Date.
3.2 Notice of Certain Events. If the Company proposes at any time to:
(a) declare any dividend or distribution upon the outstanding shares of the Company’s stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend;
(b) offer for subscription or sale pro rata to the holders of the outstanding shares any additional shares of any class or series of the Company’s stock (other than pursuant to contractual pre-emptive rights);
(c) effect any reclassification, exchange, combination, substitution, reorganization or recapitalization of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock;
(d) effect an Acquisition or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up; or
(e) effect an underwritten offering and sale of its securities to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (a “Public Offering”);
then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder:
(1) in the case of the matters referred to in (a) and (b) above, at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the earlier to occur of the effective date thereof or the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding shares of the Common Stock will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any;
(2) in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding shares of the Common Stock will be entitled to exchange their shares for the securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event and such reasonable information as Holder may reasonably require regarding the treatment of this Warrant in connection with such event giving rise to the notice); and
(3) with respect to any Public Offering, at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the date on which the Company proposes to file its registration statement in connection therewith.
Company will also provide information requested by Holder that is reasonably necessary to enable Holder to comply with Holder’s accounting or reporting requirements.

4.2 Disclosure of Information. Holder is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of this Warrant and its underlying securities.

In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the fair market value of one Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above is greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company shall, within a reasonable time, deliver a certificate representing the Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder.

2.6 Disclosure; No Reliance. No representation or warranty of the Company contained in or incorporated by reference into this Agreement, when taken together as qualified by the Disclosure Schedule and the other qualifications set forth in the first paragraph of Section 2, and no certificate furnished or to be furnished to Purchasers at the Initial Closing, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

Except for the specific representations and warranties expressly made or incorporated by reference by the Company in Article 2 of this
Agreement, Purchaser specifically disclaims that it is relying upon or has relied upon any other representations or warranties that may have been made by the Company or any other Person, and acknowledges and agrees that the Company has specifically disclaimed and does hereby specifically disclaim any such other representation or warranty made by the Company or any other Person.
3.Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company, severally and not jointly, that:
3.1 Organization and Authorization. The Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into the Transaction Agreements. The Transaction Agreements to which the Purchaser is a party, when executed and delivered by the Purchaser, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (b) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.
3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Shares to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Shares. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.
3.3 Disclosure of Information. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares with the Company’s management and has had an opportunity to review the Company’s facilities. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Article 2 of this Agreement or the right of the Purchasers to rely thereon.
3.4 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been, and, subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Shares, or the Common Stock into which it may be converted, for resale except as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.
3.5 No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for the Shares, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Shares.
3.6 Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Shares and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Shares, may be notated with one or all of the following or substantially similar legends:
(a)“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”
(b)“IN ADDITION, THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO ONE OR MORE AGREEMENTS BY THE HOLDER HEREOF NOT TO SELL SUCH SHARES FOR A PERIOD OF 180 DAYS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING OCTOBER 1, 2019.”
(c)Any legend set forth in, or required by, the other Transaction Agreements.
(d)Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Shares represented by the certificate, instrument, or book entry so legended.
3.7 Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
3.8 Foreign Investors. If the Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), the Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares. The Purchaser’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Purchaser’s jurisdiction.
3.9 No General Solicitation. Neither the Purchaser, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.
3.10 Exculpation Among Purchasers. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is not relying upon any Person, other than the Company and its officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. The Purchaser agrees that neither any Purchaser nor the respective controlling Persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or employees of any Purchaser shall be liable to any other Purchaser for any action heretofore taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Shares. Without limiting the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Foundry is not a purchaser representative or agent of the Purchaser and the Purchaser has relied on his, her or its own investment due diligence and analysis.
3.11 Residence. If the Purchaser is an individual, then the Purchaser resides in the state or province identified in the address of the Purchaser set forth on Exhibit A; if the Purchaser is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity, then the office or offices of the Purchaser in which its principal place of business is identified in the address or addresses of the Purchaser set forth on Exhibit A.
3.12 “Bad Actor” Matters. Purchaser hereby represents that no Disqualification Event is applicable to Purchaser or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties (as defined below), except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. Purchaser hereby agrees that it shall notify the Company promptly in writing in the event a Disqualification Event becomes applicable to Purchaser or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties, except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable.

2.Registration Rights. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:
2.1 Demand Registration.
(a)If at any time after the date of this Agreement, the Company receives a request from Foundry that the Company file a Form S-3 registration statement with respect to outstanding Registrable Securities of such Holder (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith and Section 2.1(d)) having an anticipated aggregate offering price, net of Selling Expenses, of at least $1.75 million, then the Company shall (i) within thirty (30) days after the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders other than Foundry; and (ii) as soon as practicable, and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the date such request is given by Foundry, file a Form S-3 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within twenty (20) days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Sections 2.1(b) and 2.3.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the Company furnishes to Holders requesting a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, because such action would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after the request of Foundry is given; provided, however, that the Company may not invoke this right more than twice in any twelve (12) month period.
(c)The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) during the period that is thirty (30) days before the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or (ii) if the Company has effected a registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) within the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of such request. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.1(c) until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC, unless Foundry withdraws its request for such registration or elects not to pay the registration expenses therefor; provided, that if such withdrawal is during a period the Company has deferred taking action pursuant to Section 2.1(b), then Foundry may withdraw its request for registration and such registration will not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.1(c).
(d)If Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall (i) register the resale of the Registrable Securities on another appropriate form and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC.
2.2 Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such registration. Upon the request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2, if the Company determines that the success of the offering requires a limitation on the number of shares to be included in the offering, then any shares to be included in the offering shall be allocated (i) first to the Company and (ii) second, in the case of a registration of securities under the Securities Act pursuant to any registration rights granted by the Company to any stockholders of the Company other than the Holders, to such stockholders, and, in the case of any other registration of securities under the Securities Act, to the Holders. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.6.
2.3 Underwriting Requirements.
(a)If, pursuant to Section 2.1, Foundry intends to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to Section 2.1, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Company and shall be reasonably acceptable to Foundry. In such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Section 2.4(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.3, if the underwriter(s) advise(s) Foundry in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then Foundry shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including Foundry, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities which are not required to be included in such offering pursuant to any registration rights granted by the Company are first entirely excluded from the underwriting.
(b)In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to Section 2.2, the Company shall not be required to include any of the Holders’ Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the Company) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. If the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering, if any, shall be allocated among the selling Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable to) the number of Registrable Securities owned by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the number of Registrable Securities included in the offering be reduced unless all other securities (other than securities to be sold by the Company and any securities which are required to be included in such offering pursuant to any registration rights granted by the Company) are first entirely excluded from the offering. For purposes of the provision in this Section 2.3(b) concerning apportionment, for any
selling Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such “selling Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
(c) For the purposes of Section 2.1, a registration shall not be counted as “effected” if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter’s cutback provisions in Section 2.3(a), fewer than thirty percent (30%) of the total number of Registrable Securities that Holders have requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included.
2.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a)prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to three hundred and sixty-five (365) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, however, that such three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains, at the request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, from selling any securities included in such registration;
(b)prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement, as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;
(c)furnish to the selling Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, and such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Securities;
(d)use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue-sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the selling Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(e)in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the underwriter(s) of such offering;
(f)use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be listed on a national securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;
(g)provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;
(h)promptly make available for inspection by the selling Holders, any underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the selling Holders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, and independent
accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant, or agent, in each case, as necessary or advisable to verify the accuracy of the information in such registration statement and to conduct appropriate due diligence in connection therewith;
(i)notify each selling Holder, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed; and
(j)after such registration statement becomes effective, notify each selling Holder of any request by the SEC that the Company amend or supplement such registration statement or prospectus.
In addition, the Company shall ensure that, at all times after any registration statement covering a public offering of securities of the Company under the Securities Act shall have become effective, its insider trading policy shall provide that the Company’s directors may implement a trading program under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act.
2.5 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.
2.6 Expenses of Registration. All expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to Section 2, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees; printers’ and accounting fees; fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; and the reasonable fees and disbursements, not to exceed $25,000, of one counsel for the selling Holders (“Selling Holder Counsel”), shall be borne and paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all selling Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a), as the case may be; provided further that if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders shall have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness after learning of such information then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses. All Selling Expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Section 2 shall be borne and paid by the Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities registered on their behalf.
2.7 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
2.8 Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 2:
(a)To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each selling Holder, and the partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of each such Holder; legal counsel and accountants for each such Holder; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each such Holder; and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any Damages, and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such Holder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with such registration.
(b)To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each Person (if any), who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling Person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such selling Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such selling Holder will pay to the Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by any Holder by way of indemnity or contribution under Sections 2.8(b) and 2.8(d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action.
(d)To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either: (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case (x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided
further that in no event shall a Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section 2.8(d), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.8(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Holder.
(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
(f)Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this Section 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
2.9 Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S‑3, the Company shall:
(a)make and keep available adequate current public information, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company;
(b)use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
(c)furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) to the extent accurate, a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S‑3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies); and (ii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration (at any time after the Company has become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act) or pursuant to Form S‑3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies to use such form).
2.10 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would (i) provide to such holder or prospective holder the right to include such securities in any registration unless, under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the number of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included; or (ii) allow such holder or prospective holder to initiate a demand for registration of any securities held by such holder or prospective holder; provided that this limitation shall not apply to Registrable Securities acquired by any additional Investor that becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.9.
2.11 Restrictions on Transfer.
(a)The Preferred Stock and the Registrable Securities shall not be sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred, and the Company shall not recognize and shall issue stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to any such sale, pledge, or transfer, except upon the conditions specified in this Agreement, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. A transferring Holder will cause any proposed purchaser, pledgee, or transferee of the Preferred Stock and the Registrable Securities held by such
Holder to agree to take and hold such securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Agreement.
(b)Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing (i) the Preferred Stock, (ii) the Registrable Securities, and (iii) any other securities issued in respect of the securities referenced in clauses (i) and (ii), upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, or similar event, shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 2.11(c)) be notated with a legend substantially in the following form:
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.
IN ADDITION, THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO ONE OR MORE AGREEMENTS BY THE HOLDER HEREOF NOT TO SELL SUCH SHARES FOR A PERIOD OF 180 DAYS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING OCTOBER 1, 2019.”
The Holders consent to the Company making a notation in its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.11.
(c)The holder of such Restricted Securities, by acceptance of ownership thereof, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Section 2. Before any proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of any Restricted Securities, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, the Holder thereof shall give notice to the Company of such Holder’s intention to effect such sale, pledge, or transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail and, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall be accompanied at such Holder’s expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall, and whose legal opinion shall, be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, addressed to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transaction may be effected without registration under the Securities Act; (ii) a “no action” letter from the SEC to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of such Restricted Securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the SEC that action be taken with respect thereto; or (iii) any other evidence reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of the Restricted Securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the Holder of such Restricted Securities shall be entitled to sell, pledge, or transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice given by the Holder to the Company. The Company will not require such a legal opinion or “no action” letter (x) in any transaction in compliance with SEC Rule 144; (y) in any transaction in which such Holder distributes Restricted Securities to an Affiliate of such Holder for no consideration; or (z) in any transaction in which such Holder distributes Restricted Securities to its beneficial interest holders, such as limited partners, members or any other Person having “beneficial ownership,” as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act (“Investor Beneficial Owners”) for no consideration provided that each transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 2.11. Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided shall be notated with, except if such transfer is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144, the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 2.11(b), except that such certificate instrument, or book entry shall not be notated with such restrictive legend if, in the opinion of counsel for such Holder and the Company, such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.
2.12 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:
(a)the date that all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities are eligible for resale without volume or manner of sale restrictions under Rule 144;
(b)the date on which the resale of such security has been registered pursuant to the Securities Act and it has been disposed of in accordance with a registration statement relating to it;
(c)the date on which such securities are sold to the Company; and
(d)the five year anniversary of the date of this Agreement.
3.Miscellaneous.
3.1 Successors and Assigns. The rights under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee of Registrable Securities that (i) is an Affiliate or Investor Beneficial Owner of a Holder; (ii) is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or one or more of such Holder’s Immediate Family Members; or (iii) after such transfer, holds at least 1,000,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, and other recapitalizations); provided, however, that (x) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred; and (y) such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 2.11. For the purposes of determining the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee, the holdings of a transferee (1) that is an Affiliate or stockholder of a Holder; (2) who is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member; or (3) that is a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family Member shall be aggregated together and with those of the transferring Holder; provided further that all transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment of rights shall, as a condition to the applicable transfer, establish a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices, or taking any action under this Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement inure to the benefit of and are binding upon the respective successors and permitted assignees of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assignees any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.
3.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal law of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of Delaware.
3.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
3.4 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
3.5 Notices.
(a)All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earlier of actual receipt or (i) personal delivery to the party to be notified; (ii) when sent, if sent by electronic mail or facsimile during the recipient’s normal business hours, and if not sent during normal business hours, then on the recipient’s next business day; (iii) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid; or (iv) one (1) business day after the business day of deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, freight prepaid, specifying next-day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

in the case of the Company, or to such email address, facsimile number, or address as subsequently modified by written notice given in accordance with this Section 3.5.
(b)Each Investor consents to the delivery of any stockholder notice pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), as amended or superseded from time to time, by electronic transmission pursuant to Section 232 of the DGCL (or any successor thereto) at the electronic mail address or the facsimile number set forth below such Investor’s name on the Schedules hereto, as updated from time to time by notice to the Company, or as on the books of the Company. Each Investor agrees to promptly notify the Company of any change in such stockholder’s electronic mail address, and that failure to do so shall not affect the foregoing.
3.6 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended, modified or terminated and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of (i) the Company and (ii) the holders of at least fifty-five percent (55%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding; provided that the Company may in its sole discretion waive compliance with Section 2.11(c) (and the Company’s failure to object promptly in writing after notification of a proposed assignment allegedly in violation of Section 2.11(c) shall be deemed to be a waiver); and provided further that any provision hereof may be waived by any waiving party on such party’s own behalf, without the consent of any other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or terminated and the observance of any term hereof may not be waived with respect to any Investor without the written consent of such Investor, unless such amendment, modification, termination, or waiver applies to all Investors in the same fashion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Schedule A hereto may be amended by the Company from time to time to add transferees of any Registrable Securities in compliance with the terms of this Agreement without the consent of the other parties; and Schedule A hereto may also be amended by the Company after the date of this Agreement without the consent of the other parties to add information regarding any additional Investor who becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.9. The Company shall give prompt notice of any amendment, modification or termination hereof or waiver hereunder to any party hereto that did not consent in writing to such amendment, modification, termination, or waiver. Any amendment, modification, termination, or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 3.6 shall be binding on all parties hereto, regardless of whether any such party has consented thereto. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.
3.7 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is for any reason held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be reformed and construed so that it will be valid, legal, and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
3.8 Aggregation of Stock. All shares of Registrable Securities held or acquired by Affiliates shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement and such affiliated persons may apportion such rights as among themselves in any manner they deem appropriate.
3.9 Additional Investors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company issues additional shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock after the date hereof whether pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or otherwise, any purchaser of such shares of Preferred Stock may become a party to this Agreement by executing and delivering an additional counterpart signature page to this Agreement, and thereafter shall be deemed an “Investor” for all purposes hereunder. No action or consent by the Investors shall be required for such joinder to this Agreement by such additional Investor, so long as such additional Investor has agreed in writing to be bound by all of the obligations as an “Investor” hereunder.
3.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including any Schedules and Exhibits hereto) constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled.
3.11 Dispute Resolution. The parties (a) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of the state courts of Colorado and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Colorado for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement, (b) agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement except in the state courts of Colorado or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, and (c) hereby waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court.
3.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. Waiver of Jury Trial: EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THE SECURITIES OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. THIS SECTION HAS BEEN FULLY DISCUSSED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THESE PROVISIONS WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY EXCEPTIONS. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.
3.13 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of such nonbreaching or nondefaulting party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence to any such breach or default, or to any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. All remedies, whether under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
3.14 Acknowledgment. The Company acknowledges that the Investors are in the business of venture capital investing and therefore review the business plans and related proprietary information of many enterprises, including enterprises which may have products or services which compete directly or indirectly with those of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude or in any way restrict the Investors from investing or participating in any particular enterprise whether or not such enterprise has products or services which compete with those of the Company.

LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
|
2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Bank the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.
2.1.1 Second Supplemental Term Loan.
(a)Availability. Bank has made a Second Supplemental Term Loan to Borrower under the Prior Loan Agreement. No additional Second Supplemental Term Loans are available hereunder.
(b)Repayment of Second Supplemental Term Loan.
(i)Interest-Only Payments. Borrower shall make monthly payments of interest-only commencing on the first (1st) Business Day of the first (1st) month following the month in which the Funding Date occurs with respect to the Second Supplemental Term Loan and continuing thereafter during the Second Supplemental Interest-Only Period, on the first (1st) Business Day of each successive month.
(ii)Principal and Interest Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Prior Loan Agreement, following the end of the Second Supplemental Interest-Only Period, Borrower shall make eighteen (18) consecutive equal monthly payments of principal, plus monthly payments of accrued unpaid interest, commencing on the first (1st) Business Day of the first (1st) month after the Second Supplemental Interest-Only Period (the “Second Supplemental Conversion Date”), in amounts that would fully amortize the Second Supplemental Term Loan, as of the Second Supplemental Conversion Date, over the Second Supplemental Repayment Period. The Second
Supplemental Final Payment and all unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Second Supplemental Term Loan are due and payable in full on the Second Supplemental Term Loan Maturity Date.
(c)Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower shall have the option to prepay the Second Supplemental Term Loan in full, provided Borrower (i) shall provide written notice to Bank of its election to prepay the Second Supplemental Term Loan at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment and (ii) pays, on the date of such prepayment, (A) all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest, plus (B) the Second Supplemental Final Payment, plus (C) all other sums, including Bank Expenses, if any, that shall have become due and payable.
(d)Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. If the Second Supplemental Term Loan is accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank an amount equal to the sum of (i) all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest, plus (ii) the Second Supplemental Final Payment, plus (iii) all other sums, including Bank Expenses, if any, that shall have become due and payable.
2.2 Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.
(a)Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Second Supplemental Term Loan shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to two percent (2.0%) above the Prime Rate, which shall be payable monthly.
(b)Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is five percentage points (5.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). Fees and expenses which are required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Expenses) but are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the highest rate applicable to the Obligations. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.2(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Bank.
(c)Adjustment to Interest Rate. Changes to the interest rate of any Credit Extension based on changes to the Prime Rate shall be effective on the effective date of any change to the Prime Rate and to the extent of any such change.
(d)Payment; Interest Computation. Interest is payable monthly on the first calendar day of each month and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In computing interest, (i) all payments received after 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on any day shall be deemed received at the opening of business on the next Business Day, and (ii) the date of the making of any Credit Extension shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; provided, however, that if any Credit Extension is repaid on the same day on which it is made, such day shall be included in computing interest on such Credit Extension.
2.3 Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank the following:

When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.

Specifically, however, if at any time any Governmental Authority, applicable law, regulation or international agreement requires Borrower to make any withholding or deduction from any such payment or other sum payable hereunder to Bank, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that the amount due from Borrower with respect to such payment or other sum payable hereunder will be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such required withholding or deduction, Bank receives a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no withholding or deduction been required, and Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority. Borrower will, upon request, furnish Bank with proof reasonably satisfactory to Bank indicating that Borrower has made such withholding payment; provided, however, that Borrower need not make any withholding payment if the amount or validity of such withholding payment is contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings and as to which payment in full is bonded or reserved against by Borrower. The agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 2.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST
|
4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants Bank, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to Bank, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof.
Borrower acknowledges that it previously has entered, and/or may in the future enter, into Bank Services Agreements with Bank. Regardless of the terms of any Bank Services Agreement, Borrower agrees that any amounts Borrower owes Bank thereunder shall be deemed to be Obligations hereunder and that it is the intent of Borrower and Bank to have all such Obligations secured by the first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral granted herein (subject only to Permitted Liens that may have superior priority to Bank’s Lien in this Agreement).
If this Agreement is terminated, Bank’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations and at such time as Bank’s obligation to make Credit Extensions has terminated, Bank shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower. In the event (x) all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations), except for Bank Services, are satisfied in full, and (y) this Agreement is terminated, Bank shall terminate the security interest granted herein upon Borrower providing cash collateral acceptable to Bank in its good faith business judgment for Bank Services, if any. In the event such Bank Services consist of outstanding Letters of Credit, Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to (x) if such Letters of Credit are denominated in Dollars, then at least one hundred five percent (105.0%); and (y) if such Letters of Credit are denominated in a Foreign Currency, then at least one hundred ten percent (110.0%), of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit.
4.2 Priority of Security Interest. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens that are permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to have superior priority to Bank’s Lien under this Agreement). If Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim in excess of One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000), Borrower shall promptly notify Bank in a writing signed by Borrower of the general details thereof and grant to Bank in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank.
4.3 Authorization to File Financing Statements. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to file financing statements, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Bank’s interest or rights hereunder, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, by Borrower or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Bank under the Code. Such financing statements may indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in Bank’s discretion.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
|
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
5.1 Due Organization, Authorization; Power and Authority. Borrower is duly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of formation and is qualified and licensed to do business and is in good standing in any jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership of property requires that it be qualified except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business. In connection with this Agreement, Borrower has delivered to Bank a completed certificate signed by Borrower, entitled “Perfection Certificate”. Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that (a) Borrower’s exact legal name is that indicated on the Perfection Certificate and on the signature page hereof; (b) Borrower is an organization of the type, and is organized in the jurisdiction, set forth in the Perfection Certificate; (c) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s organizational identification number or accurately states that Borrower has none; (d) the Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth Borrower’s place of business, or, if more than one, its chief executive office as well as Borrower’s mailing address (if different than its chief executive office); (e) Borrower (and each of its predecessors) has not, in the past five (5) years, changed its jurisdiction of formation, organizational structure or type, or any organizational number assigned by its jurisdiction; and (f) all other information set forth on the Perfection Certificate pertaining to Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is accurate and complete (it being understood and agreed that Borrower may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate after the Effective Date to the extent permitted by one or more specific provisions in this Agreement). If Borrower is not now a Registered Organization but later becomes one, Borrower shall promptly notify Bank of such occurrence and provide Bank with Borrower’s organizational identification number.
The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized, and do not (i) conflict with any of Borrower’s organizational documents, (ii) contravene, conflict with, constitute a default under or violate any material Requirement of Law, (iii) contravene, conflict with or violate any applicable order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their property or assets may be bound or affected, (iv) require any action by, filing, registration, or qualification with, or Governmental Approval from, any Governmental Authority (except such Governmental Approvals that have already been obtained and are in full force and effect) or (v) conflict with, contravene, constitute a default or breach under, or result in or permit the termination or acceleration of, any material agreement by which Borrower is bound. Borrower is not in default under any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound in which the default could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.
5.2 Collateral. Borrower has good title to, rights in, and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Borrower has no Collateral Accounts at or with any bank or financial institution other than Bank or Bank’s Affiliates except for the Collateral Accounts described in the Perfection Certificate delivered to Bank in connection herewith and which Borrower has taken such actions as are necessary to give Bank a perfected security interest therein, pursuant to the terms of Section 6.6(b). The Accounts are bona fide, existing obligations of the Account Debtors.
The Collateral is not in the possession of any third party bailee (such as a warehouse) except as otherwise provided in the Perfection Certificate. None of the components of the Collateral shall be maintained at locations other than as provided in the Perfection Certificate or as permitted pursuant to Section 7.2.
Borrower is the sole owner of the Intellectual Property which it owns or purports to own except for (a) non-exclusive licenses granted to its customers in the ordinary course of business, (b) over-the-counter software that is commercially available to the public, and (c) material Intellectual Property licensed to Borrower and noted on the Perfection Certificate. Each Patent which it owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business is valid and enforceable, and no part of the Intellectual Property which Borrower owns or purports to own and which is material to Borrower’s business has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no claim has been made that any part of the Intellectual Property violates the rights of any third party except to the extent such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business.
Except as noted on the Perfection Certificate, Borrower is not a party to, nor is it bound by, any Restricted License.
5.3 Litigation. There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer, threatened in writing by or against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) individually or in the aggregate.
5.4 No Material Deviation in Financial Statements. All consolidated financial statements for Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries delivered to Bank fairly present in all material respects (subject to normal year-end adjustments) Borrower’s consolidated financial condition and Borrower’s consolidated results of operations. There has not been any material deterioration in Borrower’s consolidated financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements submitted to Bank.
5.5 Solvency. Borrower is able to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.
5.6 Regulatory Compliance. Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Borrower is not engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors). Borrower (a) has complied in all material respects with all Requirements of Law, and (b) has not violated any Requirements of Law the violation of which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business. None of Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets has been used by Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, by previous Persons, in disposing, producing, storing, treating, or transporting any hazardous substance other than legally. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all consents, approvals and authorizations of, made all declarations or filings with, and given all notices to, all Governmental Authorities that are necessary to continue their respective businesses as currently conducted.
5.7 Subsidiaries; Investments. Borrower does not own any stock, partnership, or other ownership interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments.
5.8 Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions. Borrower has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower has timely paid all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower except (a) to the extent such taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor, or (b) if such taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions do not, individually or in the aggregate, exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000).
To the extent Borrower defers payment of any contested taxes, Borrower shall (i) notify Bank in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, and (ii) post bonds or take any other steps required to prevent the Governmental Authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the
Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien.” Borrower is unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower's prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000). Borrower has paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not withdrawn from participation in, and has not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.
5.9 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions solely as working capital to fund its general business requirements and not for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes.
5.10 Full Disclosure. No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, as of the date such representation, warranty, or other statement was made, taken together with all such written certificates and written statements given to Bank, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained in the certificates or statements not misleading (it being recognized by Bank that the projections and forecasts provided by Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions are not viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections and forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results).
5.11 Definition of “Knowledge.” For purposes of the Loan Documents, whenever a representation or warranty is made to Borrower’s knowledge or awareness, to the “best of” Borrower’s knowledge, or with a similar qualification, knowledge or awareness means the actual knowledge, after reasonable investigation, of any Responsible Officer.
Borrower shall do all of the following:
6.1 Government Compliance.
(a)Maintain its and all its Subsidiaries’ legal existence and good standing in their respective jurisdictions of formation and maintain qualification in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s business or operations. Borrower shall comply, and have each Subsidiary comply, in all material respects, with all laws, ordinances and regulations to which it is subject.
(b)Obtain all of the Governmental Approvals necessary for the performance by Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the grant of a security interest to Bank in the Collateral.

The foregoing inspections and audits shall be at Borrower’s expense. In the event Borrower and Bank schedule an audit more than eight (8) days in advance, and Borrower cancels or seeks to reschedule the audit with less than eight (8) days written notice to Bank,
then (without limiting any of Bank’s rights or remedies), Borrower shall pay Bank a fee of Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) plus any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank to compensate Bank for the anticipated costs and expenses of the cancellation or rescheduling.

BANK’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
|
9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:
(a)declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b)stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;
(c)for any Letters of Credit, demand that Borrower (i) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to at least 105% (110% for Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency) of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit remaining undrawn (plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment)), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (ii) pay in advance all letter of credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit;
(d)terminate any FX Contracts;
(e)verify the amount of, demand payment of and performance under, and collect any Accounts and General Intangibles, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable, and notify any Person owing Borrower money of Bank’s security interest in such funds;
(f)make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Bank requests and make it available as Bank designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank’s rights or remedies;
(g)apply to the Obligations (i) any balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;
(h)ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale and sell the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Bank’s benefit;
(i)place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;
(j)demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and
(k)exercise all rights and remedies available to Bank under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
9.2 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Bank as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Bank’s security interest in the Collateral, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred, until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Bank is under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Bank’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.
9.3 Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which may be required to preserve the Collateral, Bank may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Bank will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Bank obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default.
9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank shall have the right to apply in any order any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations. Bank shall pay any surplus to Borrower by credit to the Designated Deposit Account or to other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Bank for any deficiency. If Bank, directly or indirectly, enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Bank shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Bank of cash therefor.
9.5 Bank’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Bank complies with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Bank, Bank shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
9.6 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Bank’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Bank has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Bank from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Bank’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
9.7 Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.
All notices, consents, requests, approvals, demands, or other communication by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given, or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class, registered or certified mail return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by electronic mail or facsimile transmission; (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid; or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address, facsimile number, or email address indicated below. Bank or Borrower may change its mailing or electronic mail address or facsimile number by giving the other party written notice thereof in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.

CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE
|
Except as otherwise expressly provided in any of the Loan Documents, California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Clara County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Bank from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Bank. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in, or subsequently provided by Borrower in accordance with, Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.
WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable,
the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Clara County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Clara County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.
This Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
12.1 Termination Prior to Maturity Date; Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations have been satisfied. So long as Borrower has satisfied the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations, any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement, and any Obligations under Bank Services Agreements that are cash collateralized in accordance with Section 4.1 of this Agreement), this Agreement may be terminated prior to the Second Supplemental Term Loan Maturity Date by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.1.1(c). Those obligations that are expressly specified in this Agreement as surviving this Agreement’s termination shall continue to survive notwithstanding this Agreement’s termination.
12.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations under it without Bank’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Bank’s discretion). Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Warrant, as to which assignment, transfer and other such actions are governed by the terms thereof).
12.3 Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Bank and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or any other Person affiliated with or representing Bank (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless against: (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities (collectively, “Claims”) claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; and (ii) all losses or expenses (including Bank Expenses) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by such Indemnified Person as a result of, following from, consequential to, or arising from transactions between Bank and Borrower contemplated by the Loan Documents (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except for Claims and/or losses directly caused by such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
This Section 12.3 shall survive until all statutes of limitation with respect to the Claims, losses, and expenses for which indemnity is given shall have run.
12.4 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all Obligations in this Agreement.
12.5 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement is severable from every other provision in determining the enforceability of any provision.
12.6 Correction of Loan Documents. Bank may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties.
12.7 Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration. No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document. Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. The Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.
12.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
12.9 Borrower Liability. Any Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions hereunder. Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions hereunder. Each Borrower hereunder shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay all Obligations, including, without limitation, all Credit Extensions made hereunder, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions. Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, including, without limitation, the benefit of California Civil Code Section 2815 permitting revocation as to future transactions and the benefit of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, and 2899 and 3433, and (b) any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Bank may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability.
