Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Delafield Investments Limited

 

As of December 2, 2016, Propanc Health Group Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered in a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Delafield Investments Limited (“Delafield”), pursuant to which the Company and Delafield agreed to cancel the Company’s two year common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 40,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (the “Two Year Warrant”), and the five month common stock purchase warrant to purchase in five tranches, at exercise prices between $0.012 and $0.020 per share, up to 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Five Month Warrant”). The Two Year Warrant and the Five Month Warrant (collectively, the “Warrants”) were originally issued to Delafield on August 3, 2016.

 

Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the 12,500,000 restricted shares held by Delafield pursuant to its exercise of such shares under the first tranche of the Five Month Warrant at a purchase price of $0.012 per share or $150,000 in the aggregate, were redeemed by the Company upon the issuance and in exchange for an 8% convertible redeemable promissory note in the principal amount of $150,000 (the “Delafield Note”). The Delafield Note matures two years from the issuance date at which time any outstanding principal and interest is then due and payable. The Delafield Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to 65% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the conversion, subject to adjustment in certain events. The Note may be prepaid at any time at 135% of the principal amount plus any accrued interest. Upon an event of default, principal and accrued interest will become immediately due and payable and interest will accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum or the highest rate of interest permitted by law.

 

In addition, pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Delafield released the Company from its obligations to register and reserve the shares underlying the Warrants and authorized the Company to withdraw its registration statement with respect to such shares. Delafield provided in the Letter Agreement, certain consents and waivers with respect to the Company’s compliance with certain provisions of the Convertible Debenture in the original principal amount of $4,400,000 issued by the Company to Delafield (the “2015 Debenture”) and the 5% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debenture of the Company issued to Delafield in the principal amount of $165,000 (the “Additional Issuance Debenture”), for the Company’s issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of a convertible security.

 

In connection with the above, the Company issued Delafield a two-year common stock purchase warrant to purchase 26,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share (the “New Warrant”). The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the New Warrant are subject to adjustments for certain reclassifications, subdivision or combination of shares.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Letter Agreement, the Delafield Note and the New Warrant are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the Letter Agreement, the Delafield Note and the New Warrant filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

 

GHS Investments LLC

 

As of December 1, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”), and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with GHS Investments LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“GHS”), pursuant to which GHS agreed to purchase up to $7.0 million of Common Stock, from time to time, following the registration of such shares pursuant to a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Following effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement, the Company shall have the right to deliver puts to GHS and GHS will be obligated to purchase registered shares of Common Stock based on the investment amount specified in each put notice so long as such amount does not exceed 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. The price of each put registered share shall be equal to 80% of the average of the three lowest volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock (the “Market Price”) during the 10 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the receipt of the applicable put notice (the “Pricing Period”); provided that in any event the purchase price shall not be less than $0.01 (the “Put Floor”) which may be rendered inoperative by mutual agreement of the parties in the event the Common Stock trades at or below $0.01 for any two trading days during a Pricing Period (the “Purchase Price”). In the event that (i) the average of the three lowest volume-weighted average prices (the “VWAP”) of the Company’s Common Stock during the 10 trading days following a put notice (the “Trading Period”) is less than 85% of the Market Price used to determine the Purchase Price in connection with the put and (ii) as of the end of such Trading Period GHS holds shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to such put notice (the “Trading Period Shares”), then the Company shall issue such additional shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to adjust the Purchase Price for that portion of the put represented by the Trading Period shares to equal the VWAP during the Trading Period.

 

2  

 

 

The maximum dollar amount of any put shall not exceed two times the average of the daily trading dollar volume for the Common Stock during the 10 trading days preceding the put notice date. No put will be made in an amount less than $25,000 or greater than $300,000 without the prior approval of GHS. There will be a minimum of 10 trading days between put notices unless GHS otherwise agrees in writing. Puts may be delivered by the Company to GHS until the earlier of 24 months after the SEC first declares the Resale Registration Statement effective or the date on which GHS has purchased an aggregate of $7.0 million worth of put registered shares.

 

Promptly upon the filing of the Resale Registration Statement on or before the 30 th calendar day following the Effective Date, GHS will pay $250,000 to the Company in immediately available funds and the Company will issue to GHS a $250,000 junior subordinated promissory note with a maturity date nine months from the original issuance date (the “GHS Note”). The GHS Note will accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Following an effective Resale Registration Statement, the GHS Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a 30% discount to the lowest trading price during the ten trading days prior to the conversion. If the Resale Registration Statement is not declared effective within 180 days from its filing, the GHS Note can be converted into shares of Common Stock at a 35% discount off the average of the three lowest volume-weighted average prices for the Common Stock during the 15 trading days immediately preceding a conversion date. If the Company fails to deliver shares in accordance with the GHS Note, GHS is entitled to certain liquidated damages in addition to any other available remedies. Certain events, including the Company’s merger or consolidation, distributions, or certain issuances, may result in adjustments to the number of shares GHS receives pursuant to, or the conversion price under, the GHS Note. Following issuance, the Company may prepay the GHS Note at 125% of principal and interest within 60 days, 127.5% of principal and interest after 60 days and within 120 days, or 135% of principal and interest between 121 and 180 days. In the event of default, the GHS Note is subject to acceleration at 150% of amounts owed and interest will accrue at a default interest rate of 20% per annum.

 

In addition, pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Company issued to GHS a $20,000 unsecured junior subordinated promissory note that accrues interest at a rate of 5% and matures six months from the date of issuance (the “Commitment Note”). In the event of default, principal and accrued interest under the Commitment Note becomes immediately due and payable.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Financing Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the GHS Note and the Commitment Note are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the Financing Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the GHS Note and the Commitment Note, Exhibits 10.2, 10.3, 4.3 and 4.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the issuances to Delafield and GHS disclosed above, the Company claimed an exemption 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.

No general solicitation or general advertising were used in connection with these issuances.

8% CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PROMISSORY NOTE

DUE DECEMBER 2, 2018

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Propanc Health Group Corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay to the order of Delafield Investments Limited and its authorized successors and Permitted Assigns, defined below, (" Holder "), the aggregate principal face amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars exactly (U.S. $150,000.00) on December 2, 2018 (" Maturity Date ") and to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at the rate of 8% per annum commencing on December 2, 2016. All outstanding principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable at the Maturity Date unless previously converted at the election of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note. The principal of, and interest on, this Note are payable at the address of the Holder last appearing on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time. The Company will pay outstanding principal and accrued interest due upon this Note before or on the Maturity Date, less any amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld or amounts otherwise converted, to the Holder of this Note by check or wire transfer addressed to such Holder at the last address appearing on the records of the Company. The forwarding of such check or wire transfer shall constitute payment of outstanding principal and interest hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal and interest on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such check or wire transfer. Interest may be payable in Common Stock (as defined below) pursuant to paragraph 4(b) herein. Permitted Assigns means any Holder assignment, transfer or sale of all or a portion of this Note accompanied by an opinion of counsel to the Company that shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that the securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, which opinion may be accepted by the Company in its reasonable discretion (“Opinion of Counsel”).

 

This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

 

 

Initials

 

 

 

 

1.          This Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration or transfer or exchange, except that Holder shall pay any tax or other governmental charges payable in connection therewith. To the extent that Holder subsequently transfers, assigns, sells or exchanges any of the multiple lesser denomination notes, Holder acknowledges that the Company must first receive an Opinion of Counsel.

 

2.          The Company shall be entitled to withhold from all payments any amounts required to be withheld under applicable laws.

 

3.          This Note may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (" Act "), and applicable state securities laws. Any attempted transfer to a non-qualifying party shall be treated by the Company as void. Prior to due presentment for transfer of this Note, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the person in whose name this Note is duly registered on the Company's records as the owner hereof for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected or bound by notice to the contrary. Any Holder of this Note electing to exercise the right of conversion set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, in addition to the requirements set forth in Section 4(a), and any prequalified prospective transferee of this Note, also is required to give the Company written confirmation that this Note is being converted (" Notice of Conversion ") in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A . The date of receipt (including receipt by telecopy) of such Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date. All Notices of Conversion will be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

 

4.          (a)          The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Company's common stock (the " Common Stock ") at a price (" Conversion Price ") for each share of Common Stock equal to 65% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the Common Stock as reported by the National Quotations Bureau OTC Markets exchange on which the Company’s shares are traded or any exchange upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the future (" Exchange "), for the ten prior trading days including the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company (provided such Notice of Conversion is delivered together with an Opinion of Counsel, by fax or other electronic method of communication to the Company after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to include the same day closing price). For purposes of the above calculations, a day shall not be considered a trading day if there was no trading volume for the Company’s Common Stock for that particular day. If the shares have not been delivered within 3 business days, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conversion shall be effectuated by the Company delivering the shares of Common Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To the extent the Conversion Price of the Company’s Common Stock closes below the par value per share, the Company will take all steps necessary to solicit the consent of the stockholders to reduce the par value to the lowest value possible under law. The Company agrees to honor all conversions submitted pending this increase. In the event the Company experiences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to 55% instead of 65% while that “Chill” is in effect. In no event shall the Holder be allowed to effect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company (which may be increased up to 9.9% upon 60 days’ prior written notice by the Investor).

 

 

Initials

 

  2  

 

 

(b)          Interest on any unpaid principal balance of this Note shall accrue at the rate of 8% per annum. Interest may be paid by the Company in Common Stock ("Interest Shares"). Holder may, at any time, send in a Notice of Conversion to the Company for Interest Shares based on the formula provided in Section 4(a) above. The dollar amount converted into Interest Shares shall be all or a portion of the accrued interest calculated on the unpaid principal balance of this Note to the date of such notice and shall be subtracted from interest amounts due and owing.

 

(c)          The Note may be prepaid at any time at 135% of the face amount plus any accrued interest. Such prepayment must be closed and funded within 3 days of giving notice of prepayment or the right to prepay shall be null and void.

 

(d)          Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization (excluding an increase in authorized capital) or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being referred to as a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 135% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such Holder may convert the unpaid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.

 

(e)          In case of any Sale Event (not to include a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets) in connection with which this Note is not redeemed or converted, the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that the Holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter, by converting this Note, to purchase or convert this Note into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization or other change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that could have been purchased upon exercise of the Note and at the same Conversion Price, as defined in this Note, immediately prior to such Sale Event. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive Sale Events. If the consideration received by the holders of Common Stock is other than cash, the value shall be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or successor person or entity acting in good faith.

5.            No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and interest on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the form, herein prescribed.

 

6.            The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of non-payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereto.

 

7.            The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, which may be incurred by the Holder in collecting any amount due under this Note.

 

8.            If one or more of the following described "Events of Default" shall occur:

 

(a)          The Company shall default in the payment of principal or interest on this Note or any other note issued to the Holder by the Company; or

 

(b)          Any of the representations or warranties made by the Company herein or in any certificate or financial or other written statements heretofore or hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Note shall be false or misleading in any respect; or

 

(c)          The Company shall fail to perform or observe, in any respect, any covenant, term, provision, condition, agreement or obligation of the Company under this Note or any other note issued to the Holder; or

 

(d)          The Company shall (i) become insolvent (which does not include a “going concern” opinion); (ii) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature; (iii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its dissolution; (iv) apply for or consent to the appointment of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for its or for a substantial part of its property or business; (v) file a petition for bankruptcy relief, consent to the filing of such petition or have filed against it an involuntary petition for bankruptcy relief, all under federal or state laws as applicable; or

 

(e)          A trustee, liquidator or receiver shall be appointed for the Company or for a substantial part of its property or business without its consent and shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment; or

 

(f)          Any governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at the instance of any governmental agency shall assume custody or control of the whole or any substantial portion of the properties or assets of the Company; or

 

 

Initials

 

  4  

 

 

(g)          One or more money judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process, in excess of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate, shall be entered or filed against the Company or any of its properties or other assets and shall remain unpaid, unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of fifteen (15) days or in any event later than five (5) days prior to the date of any proposed sale thereunder; or

 

(h)          The Company shall have its Common Stock delisted from an exchange (including the OTC Markets exchange) or, if the Common Stock trades on an exchange, then trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended for more than 10 consecutive days;

 

(i)           The Company shall not deliver to the Holder the Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 4 herein without restrictive legend within 3 business days of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion which includes an Opinion of Counsel expressing an opinion which supports the removal of a restrictive legend; or

 

(j)           The Company shall not replenish the reserve set forth in Section 12, within 3 business days of the request of the Holder; or

 

(k)          The Company shall cease to file its periodic report filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange.

 

Then, or at any time thereafter, unless cured within 5 days, and in each and every such case, unless such Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by the Holder (which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default) at the option of the Holder and in the Holder's sole discretion, the Holder may consider this Note immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or (further) notice of any kind (other than notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything herein or in any note or other instruments contained to the contrary notwithstanding, and the Holder may immediately, and without expiration of any period of grace, enforce any and all of the Holder's rights and remedies provided herein or any other rights or remedies afforded by law. Upon an Event of Default, interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum or, if such rate is usurious or not permitted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law.

 

9.            In case any provision of this Note is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Note will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

10.         Neither this Note nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Holder.

 

11.         The Company represents that it is not a “shell” issuer and that if it previously has been a “shell” issuer that at least 12 months have passed since the Company has reported Form 10 type information indicating it is no longer a “shell” issuer.

12.         The Company shall issue irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving three times the maximum number of shares of its Common Stock for conversions under this Note (the “ Share Reserve ”). Upon full conversion of this Note, any shares remaining in the Share Reserve shall be cancelled. The Company should at all times reserve a minimum of three times the amount of shares required if the Note would be fully converted.  The Holder may reasonably request increases from time to time to reserve such amounts. The Company will instruct its transfer agent to provide the outstanding share information to the Holder in connection with its conversions.

 

13.         This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New York applicable to contracts made and wholly to be performed within the State of New York and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto.

Original Issue Date: December __, 2016

 

JUNIOR SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE

 

Propanc Health Group Corporation , (hereinafter called the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of GHS Investments, LLC , a Nevada Limited Liability Company, or its registered assigns (the “Holder”) the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand ($250,000.00), nine (9) months from the original issue date (the “Maturity Date”), together with any interest as set forth herein, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of Ten percent (10%) (the “Interest Rate”) per annum from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise.

 

This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of twenty percent (20%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the Note is fully paid and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”)) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America.

 

All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Company by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Equity Financing Agreement dated as of December 1, 2016 by and between the Holder and the Company (the “Equity Financing Agreement”).

 

  1  

 

 

This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Company and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

The Holder, for itself and its successors and assigns, agrees that this Note, and the payment of amounts due hereunder, are junior to and subordinate in all respects to the existing debt of the Company pursuant to that certain 5% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debenture with an original issue date of October 28, 2015 (the “2015 Debenture”), and the 5% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debenture with an original issue date of September 13, 2016 (the “2016 Debenture”), in each case issued by the Company to Delafield Investments Limited (“Delafield”), as amended, modified, supplemented, restated, refinanced or replaced from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in the Equity Finance Agreement or this Note, no payment pursuant to this Note will occur until such time as the 2015 Debenture and 2016 Debenture have been fully repaid. Any delay in the payment hereunder as a result of this subordination will not trigger any right to rescind, penalty or event of default hereunder.

 

The following terms shall apply to this Note:

 

ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS

 

1.1              Conversion Right . Upon the earlier of (a) one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days from the execution of this Note or (b) an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock subject to conversion under the Note, the Holder shall have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”); provided , however , that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Company by the Holder in accordance with this Note; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Company before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "4.99%" above shall be replaced with "9.99%" following any Event of Default if the Holder, in its sole discretion and in writing, elects to demand the replacement. If the term "4.99%" is replaced with "9.99%" pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to "9.99%" shall remain at 9.99% until decreased by the Holder in writing.

 

  2  

 

 

The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Company’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Company’s option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder.

 

1.2              Conversion Price .

 

(a)           Calculation of Conversion Price .

 

Following an effective registration statement, this Note shall be convertible into Common Stock of the Company, valued at a thirty percent (30%) discount off of the lowest trading price for the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days preceding a conversion.

 

In the absence of a registration statement being declared effective within one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days from its filing, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Note in its entirety or in part(s) into Common Stock of the Company valued at a thirty five percent (35%) discount off of the average of the three (3) lowest volume-weighted average prices for the Common Stock during the fifteen (15) trading days immediately preceding a conversion date.

 

1.3              Authorized Shares . The Company covenants that during the period the conversion right exists the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Company is required at all times to have authorized and reserved three times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect from time to time)(the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Note.

 

The Company represents that upon issuance, such shares of Common Stock will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Company shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Company shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for Conversion of the outstanding Note.

 

  3  

 

 

The Company (i) acknowledges that it will irrevocably instruct its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

 

1.4              Method of Conversion .

 

(a)           Mechanics of Conversion . Upon the earlier of (a) one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days from the execution of this Note or (b) an effective registration statement covering the Note, the Holder shall have the right to Convert this Note in whole or in part, by (A) submitting to the Company a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time).

 

(b)           Surrender of Note Upon Conversion . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon Conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Holder shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following Conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c)           Payment of Taxes . The Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

  4  

 

 

(d)           Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion . Upon receipt by the Company from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Note, the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder, certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and the Equity Financing Agreement.

 

(e)           Obligation of Company to Deliver Common Stock . Upon issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Company defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Company’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Company to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Company, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Company before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

 

(f)           Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer .   In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Company is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.

 

  5  

 

 

(g)           Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline . Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline the Company shall pay to the Holder $500.00 per day in cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Company fails to deliver such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Company by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Company agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section are justified. Any delay or failure of performance by the Company hereunder shall be excused if and to the extent caused by Force Majeure. For purposes of this agreement, Force Majeure shall mean a cause or event that is not reasonably foreseeable and not caused by the Company, including acts of God, fires, floods, explosions, riots wars, hurricanes, etc.

 

1.5            Concerning the Shares . The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Company or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel to the Company (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions and will be provided within three days of the applicable Notice of Conversion) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor. Except as otherwise provided herein (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

 

“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) UNLESS AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ISSUED INDICATING THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.”

 

  6  

 

 

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Company or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel to the Company, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion may be accepted by the Company so that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold.

 

1.6              Effect of Certain Events .

If it is unclear whether the Alternative Variable Price Formula is better or worse, then Holder, in its sole discretion, may elect at the time of such issuance whether to switch to the Alternative Variable Price Formula or not.

RE: Revised financing terms and documents

 

Gentlemen:

 

Reference is hereby made to the Two Year Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Two Year Warrant”), to purchase up to 40,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Propanc Health Group Corporation (the “Company”) at an exercise price of $0.10 per share, and the Five Month Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Five Month Warrant”), to purchase in five tranches, at exercise prices between $0.012 and $0.020 per share, up to 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Collectively, the Two Year Warrant and the Five Month Warrant are referred to herein as the “Warrants”). The Warrants were issued to Delafield Investments Limited (“Delafield”) on August 3, 2016. On August 18, 2016, Delafield notified us of its exercise of 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock under the first tranche of the Five Month Warrant at a purchase price of $0.012 per share or $150,000 in the aggregate.

 

By the signature of your authorized representative below, and for good and valuable consideration the value and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, Delafield acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything in the Warrants to the contrary, each of the Two Year Warrant and the Five Month Warrant are hereby cancelled and shall hereafter be null, void and of no further force and effect. Delafield agrees that the 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock held by Delafield as restricted securities are to be redeemed by the Company upon the issuance and in exchange for an 8% convertible redeemable promissory note in the principal amount of $150,000.00 with a maturity date two years from the issuance date. In addition, Delafield releases the Company from any and all obligations to register the shares underlying the Warrants and authorizes the Company to withdraw its Registration Statement on Form S-1, together with all exhibits thereto (File No. 333-213216) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 19, 2016 with respect to such shares. Further, Delafield releases the Company from any and all obligations to reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, 240,000,000 shares in connection with or underlying the Warrants and authorizes the Company to advise its transfer agent accordingly. The Company will continue to reserve 433,149,094 shares of Common Stock in connection with the 2015 Debenture and the Additional Issuance Debenture, each as defined below.

 

 

 

 

Delafield, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, successors and assigns, consents to and agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, including but not limited to any provision or term of the Warrants, the Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Delafield dated as of October 28, 2015 as amended by an addendum dated March 11, 2016, a letter agreement dated July 1, 2016 and a letter agreement dated August 3, 2016 (collectively, the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), the Convertible Debenture in the original principal amount of $4,400,000 issued by the Company to Delafield in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2015 Debenture”), the Security Agreement by and between the Company and Delafield dated as of October 28, 2015, the Additional Issuance Agreement between the Company and Delafield dated as of September 13, 2016, and the 5% Original Issue Discount Senior Secured Convertible Debenture of the Company issued to Delafield in the principal amount of $165,000 (the “Additional Issuance Debenture”), the Company, at any time and from time to time prior to the repayment of the 2015 Debenture and the Additional Issuance Debenture, may agree to issue and may issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of a convertible security. In addition, Delafield specifically waives compliance by the Company with the obligations imposed by Sections 7(d) and 7(e) of each of the 2015 Debenture and the Additional Issuance Debenture with respect to any future issuances or repayments or offers thereof of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or Indebtedness (as defined in the 2015 Debenture and Additional Issuance Debenture) in connection with any issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of a convertible security. The consent and waivers contained herein are intended to be generally construed and applied. In no event will any actions by the Company pursuant hereto be considered an event of default under any of the transaction documents between the Company and Delafield in connection with the consent provided herein and the obligations waived pursuant hereto.

 

In consideration of the foregoing, the Company agrees to issue Delafield a two year common stock purchase warrant to purchase 26,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share.

 

Delafield, for itself and its affiliates, successors and assigns, releases any and all rights or claims that it may have against the Company, its directors, officers, subsidiaries, affiliates, representatives, agents and successors arising in any way under the Two Year Warrant or the Five Month Warrant, respectively, shares exercised under the Warrants, or the right to purchase capital stock of the Company thereunder.

 

This letter may be executed and delivered via facsimile or other electronic means with the same force and effect as if an original were executed and may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures hereto were upon the same instrument.

The Shares underlying the Promissory Note shall be included in the Registration Statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

2.3            DELIVERY OF PUT NOTICES . Subject to the terms and conditions herein, at any time and from time to time during the Open Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice to the Investor which states the dollar amount (designated in U.S. Dollars) of Shares (the “ Put Amount ”), which the Company intends to sell to the Investor on a Closing Date (each, a “ Put ” and collectively, the “ Puts ”). The timing and amounts of any Puts shall be at the sole discretion of the Company. Prior to any Closing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, withdraw any Put Notice. Unless approved by the Investor, (i) the maximum dollar amount of any Put shall not exceed two (2) times the average of the daily trading dollar volume for the Company’s Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days preceding the Put Notice Date, (ii) the minimum Put Amount in any Put Notice is twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000), and (iii) the maximum Put Amount in any Put Notice is three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000). The price of the Shares sold to the Investor in each Put shall be the Purchase Price set forth in the applicable Put Notice. During the Open Period, the Company shall not be entitled to submit a Put Notice until after the previous Closing has been completed or the previous Put Notice has been withdrawn. There will be a minimum of ten (10) Trading Days between Put Notices unless agreed to otherwise by the Investor in writing.

 

2.4            CONDITIONS TO INVESTOR’S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE SHARES . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to deliver a Put Notice and the Investor shall not be obligated to purchase any Shares at a Closing unless each of the following conditions are satisfied:

 

  4  

 

 

i. a Registration Statement shall have been declared effective and shall remain effective and available for the resale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, at all times until the Closing with respect to the subject Put Notice;

 

ii. at all times during the period beginning on the related Put Notice Date and ending on and including the related Closing Date, the Common Stock shall have been listed or quoted for trading on the Principal Market, and the Common Stock shall not have been suspended from trading thereon for a period of two (2) consecutive Trading Days during the thirty (30) day period preceding the Put Notice Date and the Company shall not have been notified of any pending or threatened proceeding or other action to suspend the trading of the Common Stock;

 

iii. the Company has complied with its obligations and is otherwise not in breach of or in default under, this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other Transaction Document, which has not been cured prior to the Put Notice Date;

 

iv. no injunction shall have been issued and remain in force, or action commenced by a governmental authority which has not been stayed or abandoned, prohibiting the purchase or the issuance of the Securities; and

 

v. the issuance of the Securities will not violate any shareholder approval requirements of the Principal Market.

 

If any of the events described in clauses (i) through (v) above occurs during a Pricing Period, then the Investor shall have no obligation to purchase the Put Amount of Common Stock set forth in the applicable Put Notice.

 

2.5            MECHANICS OF PURCHASE OF SHARES BY INVESTOR . Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.4, 6 and 7 of this Agreement, the Closing of a Put (each, a “ Closing ” and collectively, the “ Closings ”) shall occur upon the first Trading Day (the “ Closing Date ”) following the receipt by Investor of a Put Notice. On each Closing Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to electronically transmit the applicable Put Shares Due by crediting the account of the Investor’s broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (or, if DWAC is not available for the Put Shares Due on the applicable Closing Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver Investor a certificate representing the Put Shares Due), against delivery by the Investor of the Put Amount specified in the Put Notice to an account designated by the Company or, at the Company’s option, by reduction in an amount equal to the Put Amount of the amounts owed to the Investor under the Promissory Note. If the Put Shares Due are received and approved by the Investor's broker by 9:30 am EST, the Investor shall make payment to the Company’s designated account by wire transfer of immediately available funds or, if the Put Shares Due are received and receipt is confirmed by the Investor’s broker after 9:30 am EST, the Investor shall make payment to the Company’s designated account by wire transfer of next day available funds. In addition, on or prior to such Closing Date, each of the Company and Investor shall deliver to each other all documents, instruments and writings required to be delivered or reasonably requested by either of them pursuant to this Agreement in order to implement and effect the transactions contemplated herein. In the event that (i) the average of the three (3) lowest volume-weighted average prices (the “ VWAP ”) of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days following a Put Notice (the “ Trading Period ”) is less than 85% of the Market Price used to determine the Purchase Price in connection with the Put and (ii) as of the end of such Trading Period the Investor holds Shares issued pursuant to such Put Notice (the “ Trading Period Shares ”), then the Company shall issue such additional Shares as may be necessary to adjust the Purchase Price for that portion of the Put represented by the Trading Period Shares to equal the VWAP during the Trading Period.

 

  5  

 

 

2.6            OVERALL LIMIT ON COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE . Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if during the Open Period the Company becomes listed on an exchange which limits the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued without shareholder approval, then the number of Shares issuable by the Company and purchasable by the Investor, shall not exceed that number of Shares that may be issuable without such shareholder approval (the “ Maximum Common Stock Issuance ”). If such issuance of Shares could cause a delisting on the Principal Market, then the Company shall be under no obligation to issue Shares in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance unless and until such issuance shall first be approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with applicable law and the By-laws and the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. The parties understand and agree that the Company’s failure to seek, in its sole discretion, or obtain such shareholder approval shall in no way adversely affect the validity and due authorization of the issuance and sale of Securities or the Investor’s obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to purchase a number of Shares in the aggregate up to the Maximum Common Stock Issuance, and that such approval pertains only to the applicability of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in this Section 2.6 .

 

2.7            LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OF OWNERSHIP . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Investor be entitled to purchase that number of Shares, which when added to the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act), by the Investor, would exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) of the 1934 Act.

 

2.8            COMMITMENT FEE . Upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue the Investor a $20,000 promissory note, payable 6 months from issuance (the “ Commitment Note ”). Upon the Closing of each Put, the Company shall pay three quarters of one percent (0.75%) of the applicable Put Amount to the Investor, which amount shall be deducted by the Investor from each wire. The Commitment Note shall be deemed earned upon the execution of this Agreement.

 

2.9            PUT FLOOR . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the minimum Purchase Price in any Put shall be $0.01 (the “ Put Floor ”). The Parties may, but shall not be obligated to, agree in writing to render the Put Floor inoperative where the Company’s Common Stock has traded at or below $0.01 for any two (2) Trading Days during a Pricing Period.

Furthermore, the Company agrees that it will not file any other registration statement for other securities, until thirty calendar days after the Registration Statement for the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC; provided that this Section 2.3 shall not prohibit the Company from filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to the date of this Agreement.

SECTION III
RELATED OBLIGATIONS

 

At such time as the Company is obligated to prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2, the Company will affect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, with respect thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

 

 

 

3.1           The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective and shall keep such Registration Statement effective until the earlier to occur of the date on which (A) the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities; or (B) the Investor has no right to acquire any additional shares of Common Stock under the Equity Financing Agreement (the “ Registration Period ”). The Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to respond to all SEC comments within fifteen (15) business days from receipt of such comments by the Company. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective no later than five (5) business days after notice from the SEC that the Registration Statement may be declared effective. The Investor agrees to provide all information which is required by law or this Agreement to provide to the Company, including the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and the Company’s obligations set forth above shall be conditioned on the timely receipt of such information.

 

3.2           The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investor thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement . In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises (based on the then Purchase Price and other relevant factors on which the Company reasonably elects to rely), assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty (30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

3.3           The Company shall make available to the Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement and its legal counsel without charge (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC at least one (1) copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such Registration Statement(s), any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the Staff and any correspondence from the SEC or the Staff to the Company or its representatives; (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, copies of the prospectus, via EDGAR, included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto; and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

 

 

 

 

3.4           The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such states in the United States as the Investor reasonably requests; (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period; (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3.4, or (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

3.5           As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify Investor in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (“ Registration Default ”) and use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act (as defined below) and to be incorporated by reference in the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and make available copies of such supplement or amendment to the Investor. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (the Company will prepare notification of such effectiveness which shall be delivered to the Investor on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), additionally, the Company will promptly provide to the Investor, a copy of the effectiveness order prepared by the SEC once it is received by the Company; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate, (iv) in the event the Registration Statement is no longer effective, or (v) if the Registration Statement is stale as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials or otherwise

 

3.6           The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest practicable moment and to notify the Investor holding Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding concerning the effectiveness of the registration statement.

 

3.7           The Company shall permit the Investor and one (1) legal counsel, designated by the Investor, to review and comment upon the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) calendar day prior to their filing with the SEC. However, any postponement of a filing of a Registration Statement or any postponement of a request for acceleration or any postponement of the effective date or effectiveness of a Registration Statement by written request of the Investor (collectively, the “ Investor’s Delay ”) shall not act to trigger any penalty of any kind, or any cash amount due or any in-kind amount due the Investor from the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and the Investor, including without limitation the Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the event(s) of an Investor’s Delay shall not act to suspend the obligations of any kind or nature of the Investor under the Equity Finance Agreement.

 

 

 

 

3.8           At the request of the Investor, the Company’s counsel shall furnish to the Investor, within three (3) business days, an opinion letter confirming the effectiveness of the registration statement, in a form suitable to the Investor.

 

3.9           The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, or (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the extent permissible to the Investor and allow the Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order covering such information.

 

3.10         The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement on the Principal Market. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding sentence, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3.10.

 

3.11         The Company shall cooperate with the Investor to facilitate the prompt preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investor may reasonably request (and after any sales of such Registrable Securities by the Investor under the Registration Statement, such certificates not bearing any restrictive legend).

 

3.12         The Company shall provide a transfer agent for all the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto.

 

3.13         If reasonably requested by the Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practical incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investor reasonably determines should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by the Investor.

 

3.14         The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

3.15         The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

 

 

 

 

3.16         Within three (3) business day after the Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities, with copies to the Investor, confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.

 

3.17         The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

6.1           To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, under this Agreement, will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor who holds Registrable Securities, the directors, officers, partners, employees, counsel, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls, any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ 1934 Act ”) (each, an “ Indemnified Person ”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “ Claims ”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“ Indemnified Damages ”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which the Investor has requested in writing that the Company register or qualify the Registrable Securities (“ Blue Sky Filing ”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (I) through (iii) being, collectively, “ Violations ”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6.3 the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.1: (I) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which is due to the inclusion in any Registration Statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, any Blue Sky Filing, or the final prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto of the information furnished to the Company by any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, any Blue Sky Filing, or the final prospectus or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure of the Indemnified Person to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) the Indemnified Person’s use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus; (iii) any claims based on the manner of sale of the Registrable Securities by the Indemnified Person or of the Indemnified Person’s failure to register as a dealer under applicable securities laws; (iv) any omission of the Indemnified Person to notify the Company of any material fact that should be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus relating to any Indemnified Person or the manner of sale; and (v) any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

 

 

 

6.2           In connection with any Registration Statement in which Investor is participating, the Investor agrees to severally and jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6.1, the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act and the Company’s agents (each, an “ Indemnified Party ”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation is due to the inclusion in any Registration Statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, any Blue Sky Filing, or the final prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto of the written information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement, post-effective amendment thereto, Blue Sky Filing, or final prospectus or such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; and, subject to Section 6.3, the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however , that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.2 and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided , further , however, that the Investor shall only be liable under this Section 6.2 for that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of all of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.2 with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus were corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented. This indemnification provision shall apply separately to each Investor and liability hereunder shall not be joint and several.

 

6.3           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons or the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, and such counsel shall be selected by the Investor, if the Investor is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding affected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

 

 

 

6.4           The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (I) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

 

SECTION VII

CONTRIBUTION

 

7.1           To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (I) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6; (ii) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

 

SECTION VIII

REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT

 

8.1           With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (“ Rule 144 ”), provided that the Investor holds any Registrable Securities eligible for resale under Rule 144, the Company agrees to:

 

a. make and keep adequate current public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

 

b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company’s obligations under Section 5(c) of the Equity Financing Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

 

c. furnish to the Investor, promptly upon request, (I) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.
